Jurgen Klopp has been handed a Football Association (FA) charge following his actions during Liverpool’s Premier League win over Manchester City on Sunday.
The Reds manager was shown a red card late on during his side’s 1-0 victory at Anfield after he lambasted an assistant referee when no foul was given in Mohamed Salah’s favour near the touchline.
Klopp accepted responsibility in his post-match comments, admitting he had overstepped the mark, having been sent to the stands by referee Anthony Taylor.
The 55-year-old is to be allowed in the dugout for Liverpool’s next match against West Ham, but he has meanwhile been given until the end of the week to respond to an official charge relating to “improper” behaviour.
“Jurgen Klopp has been charged with a breach of FA Rule E3 following the Premier League game between Liverpool FC and Manchester City FC on Sunday (16/10/22),” read an FA statement.
“It is alleged that the Liverpool FC manager’s behaviour during the 86th minute of this game was improper, and he has until Friday (21/10/22) to provide a response.”
