Leeds United's Junior Firpo to serve three-match ban after FA violent conduct charge
Leeds United will be without Junior Firpo for the next three games after the defender was hit with a violent conduct charge by the Football Association (FA).
The 28-year-old was involved in an incident in stoppage time of Wednesday’s 1-0 defeat away at Millwall that was not seen by match officials.
The full-back appeared to headbutt Millwall defender Danny McNamara off the ball out of the sight of referee Leigh Doughty.
Firpo denied the charge but an independent commission found it proven and he will now serve a suspension.
The ban begins with Saturday’s home meeting at Elland Road...
