A 20-year-old man has been charged with assault after Manchester City midfielder Jack Grealish was allegedly slapped following Sunday’s nil-all draw with rivals Manchester United.
Grealish was confronted as he made his way off the pitch at Old Trafford following the goalless derby.
Greater Manchester Police announced in a statement on Monday that Alfie Holt of Haven Drive, Droylsden will appear at Manchester Magistrates Court on July 14.
The match was also marred by derogatory chants about Phil Foden’s mother from Manchester United fans, which City boss Pep Guardiola said showed “a lack of class”.
