Dutch giants Ajax have been slapped with an £8,500 fine by UEFA for a banner unveiled by their supporters in the 3-1 Champions League win over Manchester City in October.

The fans unveiled a cartoon banner at the Amsterdam ArenA showing a sheikh holding a bag of money with the words 'Against Modern Football' written underneath it.
Other slogan's unveiled on the night criticised Chelsea, Red Bull Lieipzig and Red Bull Salzburg, while another said '€80 [£67] for the away section is ridiculous'.
Uefa's official reason for the fine was for the 'display of a provocative and inappropriate banner'.

No prizes for guessing the provocative and inappropriate banner.
