Taty Castellanos was the subject of a spitting allegation during West Ham United’s 1-1 with Millwall on Saturday.
Former PGMOL chief Keith Hackett has now exclusively revealed to West Ham Zone what he has been told about the incident.
Taty played all 90 minutes of West Ham’s dramatic 2-2 tie with Millwall at The Den.
He did not score but helped the Hammers rally from a two-goal deficit at halftime to salvage a point.
While the game went on without incident, Filip Marschall made an allegation against Taty during the game.
Millwall has already filed a complaint, and one of the host broadcasters may have been leant on.
What has Keith Hackett heard about the Taty Castellanos footage?
It should be noted that this is only an allegation at this point.
Marschall alleged Taty spat on his shirt, but neither Sky Sports nor ITV took it up.
The high-profile televised game had multiple cameras, so it may have been captured elsewhere.Hackett reported that the incident was overlooked by the referee but was picked up by ITV.Anyone found guilty of such an offence will incur an automatic ban of at least a few games.”
The FA is anticipated to lead the probe into the situation.
Players who have previously been found guilty of the offence have been banned for six games.
What did the two managers say regarding the Taty incident?
Millwall manager Alex Neil said he would be “extremely surprised” if Marschall made the accusation without anything happening.
Nuno Espirito Santo, the opposing number, stated that he was aware of what had been said but would wait to speak with Taty.
It goes without saying that if the Argentine forward did commit the infraction, he went over the line.
However, he insisted that nothing had transpired, and it is unclear what the tape shows.
