Arsene Wenger has been handed a three-match touchline ban and ordered to pay a fine of £40,000 by the FA after the Arsenal manager's confrontation with referee Mike Dean following the 1-1 draw against West Bromwich Albion on New Year's Eve, per Alex Richards of the Daily Mirror.
A statement from the FA (h/t James Benge of the London Evening Standard) detailed why Wenger has been punished:
"It follows an Independent Regulatory Commission hearing today at which the Arsenal manager admitted that his language and behaviour in the match officials' changing room after the West Brom game on Sunday was abusive, improper and questioned the integrity of the match referee.
