The Football Association will be taking no action following the post-match clash between Manchester City defender Kyle Walker and Arsenal coach Nicolas Jover.

Walker appeared to reject Jover’s offer of a handshake after Sunday's match at Emirates Stadium, which City lost 1-0.

The England defender then reacted to something Jover, a former coach at City, said as Walker was walking away.

It resulted in further words being exchanged, with City striker Erling Haaland also involved, then more players and staff crowded round, before the situation eventually calmed down.

The FA has reviewed the footage.
