FA charge Van Dijk with improper conduct — what it means for his ban

The FA have released the following statement on Virgil van Dijk, confirming they have charged the defender with improper conduct.


The defender will serve his one-match suspension for the foul itself but it could be increased for an additional match, as per the Liverpool Echo. Overall, he could get a two-match ban — which is better than a four-game ban previously reported.

A two-match suspension will see Van Dijk miss the Aston Villa and Wolves games.

The Dutchman was sent off in the Newcastle game for a foul on Alexander Isak. He initially refused to leave the pitch and supposedly told the referee 'f***ing joke'.
