Leeds United spoke with the FA on Wednesday evening in relation to reports that our defender Tom Lees is to be charged by the Serbian Police in relation to alleged incidents surrounding the recent England Under-21 international in Serbia.

Neither the club nor the FA, or indeed the player, have received any form of formal communication, and the FA have confirmed that they will seek at the earliest opportunity to establish the exact nature of the charge and arrange for the most appropriate legal representation.

The FA also confirmed that they are continuing their communication with the Government to bring this matter to a swift and satisfactory conclusion.
