Wolves winger Daniel Podence has taken to social media to reject an FA charge of spitting at Nottingham Forest attacker Brennan Johnson.

Portugal international Podence received the charge yesterday.

The 27 year-old said he had been "accused of something I haven't done".

Writing on Instagram, he added: "I will make it clear: I did not spit on Nottingham's player. I'm telling the truth and I would never do such a thing, even more to a colleague."

Podence, who scored Wolves' late equaliser in the Premier League game against Forest, has until 12 April to respond to the FA's charge.

The standard punishment for spitting is a six-match suspension.
