The charge of spitting levelled at Wolves forward Daniel Podence has been found ‘not proven’ by the Football Association, according to reports.
The 27-year-old was alleged to have spat at Nottingham Forest’s Brennan Johnson during a fiery 1-1 draw at the City Ground.
However, there was not sufficient evidence to uphold the charge and after a personal hearing on Thursday, the Portuguese star is now free to take part in the rest of Wolves’ campaign, thereby avoiding the customary six-match ban.
