‘Elbow’ linesman Constantine Hatzidakis will return to action for the first time since Andy Robertson incident as assistant VAR for Leeds’ clash with Leicester after the FA decided no further action was needed
Assistant referee Constantine Hatzidakis will return to duty next week having been stood down while his clash with Liverpool defender Andy Robertson was investigated.
The official was cleared of any wrongdoing by the Football Association after television footage appeared to show him apparently elbow the player at half-time of the 2-2 draw at Anfield on April 9.
However, Hatzidakis will not return to the pitch immediately as he has been designated as the assistant VAR for Leeds’ hosting of fellow relegation rivals Leicester next Tuesday.
Hatzidakis is understood to have last week apologised to Robertson on a Zoom call, with the Scotland captain accepting his explanation for what happened, and the FA chose to take no further action.
