Jordan Henderson has been CLEARED after a Football Association investigation into his bust-up with Arsenal defender Gabriel.
Liverpool captain Henderson was accused of making an offensive remark during a flashpoint in Arsenal’s win at the Emirates on October 9. FA chiefs took witness statements from both players and are believed to be satisfied that Henderson’s words were misheard and have accepted his version of events.
It is understood that the words used may be close to a word which is offensive in Portuguese and caused Gabriel to react in the way that he did. Referee Michael Oliver calmed the bust-up down, even had to approach both benches to urge managers Jurgen Klopp and Mikel Arteta to calm their players and inform them of what was being alleged.
