Milutin Osmajic (Preston North End)
November 2025

After an FA charge and September hearing, an independent commission imposed a nine-match ban and £21,000 fine on Osmajic for racially abusing Hannibal during a goalless draw. Hannibal publicly denounced the abuse immediately after the match. Preston condemned racism yet criticized the “balance of probabilities” standard and reiterated Osmajic’s continued denial, pledging support for their player. The suspension removes Preston’s top scorer through Boxing Day, with competitive and reputational consequences.
