Leeds player Giuseppe Bellusci is expected to deny a charge that he racially abused Norwich City's Cameron Jerome when he appears before the FA on Thursday.
Bellusci faces a disciplinary commission where he could face a minimum five-game ban.
The incident is alleged to have happened during a Championship game on October 21 at Carrow Road.
It is understood a decision will not be revealed until next week.
