He behaved unsportingly towards Leroy Sané in the 74th minute of the Bundesliga match between 1. FC Union Berlin and FC Bayern München on 24 January 2024 and, among other things, grabbed Sané's face, whereupon referee Frank Willenborg showed him the red card.
Bjelica and 1. FC Union Berlin have agreed to the judgement, which is therefore legally binding.
