Jose Mourinho has been charged with misconduct following his sending-off during Manchester United’s goalless draw with Burnley on Saturday.
Mourinho was sent to the stands at half-time during United’s goalless draw at home to Burnley on Saturday after a furious bust-up with referee Mark Clattenburg.
Mourinho had been angered by Clattenburg’s decision not to award United a penalty when Matteo Darmian went down in the area following a clash with Jon Flanagan.
Insulting and/or abusive language towards a match official carries a more severe punishment than general misconduct, such as that given to Stoke boss Mark Hughes earlier this season.
The standard penalty is a fine and one-match touchline ban if it is accepted by the manager. If contested and the perpetrator is found guilty, the penalty is a fine and two-match ban.
