Man United's Cristiano Ronaldo WILL accept FA improper conduct after all
Cristiano Ronaldo has accepted a FA charge after all, despite Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag saying he would contest it.
Ronaldo was charged last month with a breach of FA Rule E3 relating to improper and/or violent conduct after he slapped a mobile phone out of the hand of a teenage fan following United’s defeat at Everton in April.
The 37-year-old had to respond to the charge by Monday, and Ten Hag said: ‘We spoke about that. He will not accept it.’
