Manchester United forward, Cristiano Ronaldo, has been charged with “improper and/or violent” conduct, after he appeared to knock a phone out of a fan’s hand.
The incident happened following United’s 1-0 defeat at Everton last April.
Footage showed the 37-year-old appearing to smash the phone as he left the pitch and headed towards the tunnel.
Ronaldo was cautioned by police in August and later issued an apology to 14-year-old Jacob Harding on his Instagram account.
A statement from the FA read: “Cristiano Ronaldo has been charged with a breach of FA Rule E3 for an incident that took place after Manchester United’s Premier League match against Everton FC on Saturday 9 April 2022.
“It is alleged that the forward’s conduct after the final whistle was improper and/or violent.”
