Striker Diafra Sakho will face no further action over his alleged involvement in an incident that left Manchester United Luke Shaw with a black eye.

"Sources close to" the 19-year-old, ex-Southampton full-back claimed that Sakho had head-butted Shaw during the second half of Saturday's 2-1 defeat at Old Trafford.

Referee Lee Mason's match report made no mention of the supposed clash, potentially allowing the FA to take retrospective action.

However, following a review of match footage by a three-man disciplinary panel the FA has confirmed that the Irons' top scorer, who has scored in all four of his first team starts this season, had "no case to answer" and that the matter is now closed.
