Full Details On Alejandro Garnacho Possible Sanction

Alejandro Garnacho could come under conflagration from the FA after his social media post on X with a ‘king-kong’ emoji. Alejandro Garnacho’s post may be considered non-insulting by the majority but it’s not the same in the eyes of the FA who have laid down rules for social media posts by professional football players.

Alejandro Garnacho’s post could be said to be out of excitement after Andre Onana’s heroics against Copenhagen in their Uefa Champions League tie on Tuesday night, where Andre Onana came up big and kept out a penalty in what was the last kick of the game.

The Rules and Regulations of the Football Association deem it an offence to make any written comment that is offensive, insulting, vicious, threatening, racist or discriminatory.

This covers comments made in newspapers, on websites, web forums, or on social networking sites such as Facebook and Twitter. Negligence to capitulate with the regulations may leave a participant susceptible to a charge of Bringing the Game into Disrepute.

Garnacho could face a sanction or get fined by the FA despite the post already being taken down.
