The 17-year-old was charged by her county FA over a remark made during a match against a trans-inclusive club.

She was charged last month with saying, “Are you a man?”, That’s a man’, or “Don’t come here again” during a pre-season friendly back in July .

She has denied doing so constituted transphobia or that she made any comments that could be construed as such.

She faces a six-to-12 -match ban if found guilty during a hearing later this month .

The county FA said it was “aware of the incident”, adding: “However, we are unable to comment as this incident is part of an ongoing investigation. The case will be heard by a National Serious Case Panel in due course.”.
