England's Jude Bellingham is "cleared to play" against Switzerland in the EURO 2024 quarterfinals on Saturday despite receiving a suspended one-match ban, the UEFA Control, Ethics and Disciplinary Body (CEDB) said Friday.

His newly given one UEFA competition match suspension "is not immediately enforced and is subject to a probationary period of one year," according to the CEDB.

Bellingham was also fined €30,000 ($32,470), said a UEFA statement.

The CEDB also fined the English Football Association €10,000 ($10,820) for crowd disturbances and €1,000 ($1,082) for lighting of fireworks.

The investigation in question was for "a potential violation of the basic rules of decent conduct" due to the Real Madrid and England midfielder's crotch-grabbing gesture towards the Slovakian bench after scoring an overhead kick in the 95th minute to keep England in the game.

England will next face Switzerland in a quarterfinal match on Saturday.

The EURO 2024 will end on July 14.
