It's a tough one. If I understand it correctly, Leko had said Kiko called him a Negro, which is a racist term.

Kiko has said he used the word in the sentence, mark the black player. Negro being Spanish for black. However none of his team mates heard Kiko say it, which you imagine they would if he was telling someone to mark a player?

So if you take a view as a complete neutral, then you would say there is something in it.

Kiko admitted using that word but was unable to prove in what context, so I think the FA/EFL had no real choice but to take action, assuming all the above is correct.

He should of been very aware not to use that term in any context in the UK especially with all the heightened media attention over racism at that time.

I dont know if he was guilty or extremely unfortunate.
