Chelsea boss Maurizio Sarri has been charged by the FA over misconduct following his side’s draw against Burnley.

The Italian, 60, was sent to the stands at the end of the match on Monday 22 April. David Luiz and Ashley Barnes were involved in an altercation on the pitch and a scuffle took place near the tunnel entrance at the final whistle.

Blues assistant coach Gianfranco Zola said Burnley's backroom staff "offended" Sarri.

"I think there will be a follow-up on that. Maurizio felt very unhappy," Zola said after the match."

Sarri has until 6.00pm on Friday to respond to the Football Association charge.
