A British court on Thursday fined Newcastle United midfielder Joelinton Ksh4.8 million (£31,085) and banned from driving for 12 months after admitting to drink-driving.
The 26-year-old was stopped in the early hours of January 12.
Northumbria Police charged Joelinton with “driving while above the prescribed limit for alcohol”.
He had admitted the charge.
The driving ban will be reduced to nine months if he completes a rehabilitation course, Sky Sports said.
The Brazilian, who was accompanied to court by a club security official, fired a second-half winner to earn Newcastle United a 1-0 win at Southampton in their League Cup semifinal first leg on Tuesday
