The Aston Villa striker Jhon Durán has been charged by the Football Association with improper conduct for his reaction to his sending-off at Newcastle on Boxing Day. The 21-year-old was shown a straight red card after being adjudged to have stamped on the defender Fabian Schär during the first half of the 3-0 defeat.
Villa were unsuccessful in an appeal against the decision, and salt has now been rubbed in the wound with the additional charge. Durán has until Friday to respond.
