Manchester City and England defender Kyle Walker was involved in a heated exchange following their 1-0 loss at Arsenal yesterday.
Walker, 33, was furious as he left the pitch and had to be ushered down the tunnel after a clash with his former Man City set-piece coach Nicolas Jover, who has since moved to Arsenal with Mikel Arteta.
Man City are next due in action against Brighton after the international break and there were concerns that Walker could face some form of punishment following the flare-up at the Emirates Stadium.
Now, as per the BBC’s Simon Stone, the Football Association (FA) will not be taking any action regarding the post-match incident involving Kyle Walker and a member of Arsenal coaching staff at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday afternoon.
That means Walker will not be on the receiving end of any further sanctions or punishment, at a time when Manchester City will only just be welcoming back defensive midfield mainstay Rodri from a three-match suspension.
Wounded Man City look to get their title defence back on track at home to sixth placed Albion.
Guardiola’s men have lost three of their last four matches in all competitions, including back-to-back Premier League matches for the first time since December 2018.
City midfielder Bernardo Silva said: “It’s a setback but it’s still the beginning. We’re far away from the end of the season.”
