Manchester City have accepted an FA charge of breaching anti-doping rules.

Premier League clubs are required to accurate details of training sessions and player whereabouts so they can be tested at all times.

But Manchester City were accused of failing to ensure the information was correct three times.

It is believed Etihad chiefs did not update the details provided after a change to training routines.

Manchester City are likely to receive a fine.
