Southampton manager Tonda Eckert has been charged by the Football Association over the spying scandal that led to his side being kicked out of the Championship play-offs.
In a stunning controversy that rocked English football last season, Southampton admitted spying on a training session held by play-off semi-final opponents Middlesbrough in May.
They also spied on training sessions at fellow Championship clubs Ipswich and Oxford earlier in the season.
After beating Middlesbrough in the semi-finals, Southampton were expelled from the Championship play-off final against Hull and deducted four points for the 2026-27 season.
Middlesbrough replaced Southampton in the final and were beaten by Hull.
