Morecambe FC’s Yann Songo’o has been charged with an “aggravated breach” of FA Rule E3 following their EFL League Two fixture against Tranmere Rovers FC on Saturday 30 January 2021.

It is alleged that the midfielder used abusive and/or insulting language towards an opponent during the 45th minute of the fixture, which is contrary to FA Rule E3.1, and that this constitutes an “aggravated breach”, as defined in FA Rule E3.2, because the language included a reference to sexual orientation.

Yann Songo’o has until Wednesday 24 February 2021 to provide a response.
