In the 2025-26 Premier League season, Yerson Mosquera (Wolverhampton Wanderers) and Joelinton (Newcastle United) have been handed two-match bans after both reached the 10 yellow card threshold. The recent matches marked the last opportunity for players to be suspended for 10 yellow cards, as the limit has now been raised to 15 yellow cards for the remaining weeks of the season. If players accumulate 15 yellow cards, they will face a three-match ban that could extend into the 2026-27 season. Currently, five players are at risk of reaching this suspension threshold: Bernardo Silva (Manchester City), Andre (Wolves), Moises Caicedo (Chelsea), Diego Gomez (Brighton), and Alex Jimenez (Bournemouth), all of whom have nine yellow cards and several games left to play. Additionally, Lewis Dunk is serving the second match of his two-match ban for reaching the yellow card limit earlier in the season, while Harry Maguire is suspended for one match due to a red card.
