JAMIE VARDY CHARGED BY FA FOR MISCONDUCT- FACES EXTENDED BAN

JAMIE VARDY has been charged with improper conduct for his behaviour after he was controversially sent off in Leicester’s 2-2 draw with West Ham on Sunday.

The Foxes striker was handed a second yellow card after referee Jon Moss judged he had dived under a challenge from Hammers defender Angelo Ogbonna.

Furious Vardy confronted Moss before leaving the field at the King Power.

The England star, 29, already faces an automatic one match ban following his dismissal.

But that could now be extended by a further game — meaning he will miss Leicester’s clash with Manchester United at Old Trafford.

Leicester have also been charged for failing to control their players following the awarding of an 83rd minute penalty to West Ham.

Both the player and the club have until 6pm on Thursday 21 April 2016 to reply to their charge.
