It all UEFA so yes he probably will carry the 2 game suspension. I think.
The move sounds like a last minute ticket to get onto the last train (even though he was free agent). On a positive note, the few (about 5 or 6) South Africans that did start in Liga 2 did end up in the top division. Sarpreets 1 year contract looks like his backing himself to do just that. At 25 he needs to kick on.
