The Fulham goalkeeper Bernd Leno is poised to avoid retrospective action from the Football Association despite his unsavoury altercation with a Bournemouth ballboy.
Leno pushed a ballboy during the second half of Fulham’s 3-0 Boxing Day defeat at Bournemouth after retrieving the ball before a goal-kick. The Germany international had been booked earlier in the game but escaped further punishment from the referee, Tim Robinson.
