FA awaiting Tottenham report on Assou-Ekotto incident

The Football Association are waiting on reports from Tottenham's game against Wolves on Saturday before deciding whether Spurs full-back Benoit Assou-Ekotto will face any investigation into his clash with a fan. Police have confirmed they are investigating "an allegation of assault" in relation to the incident, while if the matter was mentioned in the report of referee Stuart Attwell, then the FA could themselves launch a separate probe.

It is understood the allegation came from the supporter, who gave his version of events to the club's security officials after the incident, as did Jordan.

Spurs are also investigating the matter and may look at CCTV footage, as the clash was not caught on camera by broadcasters covering the match.
