Report: FA Investigating Arsenal Player's Yellow Card, Suspicious Betting Pattern

The Football Association (FA) is investigating a yellow card received by an Arsenal player after a suspicious prop bet from earlier this season was flagged by bookmakers, according to The Athletic.

The incident reportedly occurred when an unusual amount of money was bet on a specific Arsenal player being shown a yellow card during a Premier League match, which caught the attention of bookmakers.

“The FA is aware of the matter in question and is looking into it,” the FA told The Athletic in a statement.

The Athletic confirmed that it knew the identity of the player in question but didn't release the player's name due to privacy concerns.
