Martin Demichelis has been charged by the FA for betting on football matches earlier this year.

Demichelis is alleged to have committed 12 breaches of FA Rule E8 over the course of a week in January.

A statement by the FA said Demichelis betting on matches between January 22-28 brought the charges. It is understood the central defender allegedly put money on foreign fixtures.

 Aston Villa Part With Remi Garde

Remi Garde has left Aston Villa by mutual consent less than five months after taking charge at Villa Park, the club has confirmed.

Garde, who took over at the Midlands club in November last year, leaves them at the bottom of the Premier League , 12 points adrift from a position of safety.

The Frenchman was appointed in November in a bid to keep the Villans in the Premier League but he has won just two top-flight matches in his time in charge.

Villa are 20th in the Premier League and facing almost-certain relegation to the Championship.
