JUDE Bellingham is being investigated by UEFA over a gesture he made after scoring a late equaliser against Slovakia.

The England midfielder and Real Madrid star, who hails from Stourbridge, appeared to gesture toward the Slovakian bench after his overhead kick brought England level in the dying seconds of injury time in Gelsenkirchen.

UEFA released a statement on Monday which said: "A UEFA ethics and disciplinary inspector will conduct a disciplinary investigation regarding a potential violation of the basic rules of decent conduct by the English Football Association player, Jude Bellingham, having allegedly occurred in the scope of this match.

"Information on this matter will be made available in due course."

Bellingham posted on X about the gesture in the hours after the match, saying: "An inside joke gesture towards some close friends who were at the game. Nothing but respect for how that Slovakia team played tonight."

The Football Association has also been charged over a “lack of order or discipline” from supporters and over fans lighting fireworks.
