ARSENAL’S JACK WILSHERE has been charged with misconduct after leading the club’s supporters in chants against Tottenham Hotspur during their FA Cup victory parade, the Football Association announced on Wednesday.
Wilshere, 23, took to the microphone and led fans in two crude chants about their arch rivals Spurs during Sunday’s open-top bus parade in north London, a day after Arsenal’s 4-0 win over Aston Villa in the FA Cup final.
Having been warned by the FA for doing the same thing during last season’s FA Cup victory parade, the England midfielder now faces disciplinary action.
Jack Wilshere has been charged with misconduct in relation to Arsenal’s FA Cup celebrations on Sunday 31 May 2015,” the FA said in a statement on its website.
“It is alleged his conduct in making and/or inciting certain comments during the club’s open bus trophy tour was improper and/or brought the game into disrepute.”
