Andre Gray has asked for a personal hearing to explain homophobic posts from his Twitter account following FA charges.
Burnley striker Andre Gray has requested a personal hearing to answer Football Association charges relating to homophobic posts from his Twitter account in 2012.
The tweets were shared across social media after he scored in his side's 2-0 Premier League win over Liverpool last month, including one that read: "Is it me or are there gays everywhere? #Burn #Die #Makesmesick".
Gray issued an apology in which he claimed he was now a "wholly different person" and did "not hold the beliefs written in those tweets whatsoever".
