Crewe Alexandra Football Director Dario Gradi is expected to be interviewed by the England Football Association over claims he smoothed over a complaint of sex assault by a Chelsea scout in the 1970s.

A former youth player at Chelsea where Gradi was assistant manager says he was assaulted by chief scout, Eddie Heath, when he was 15.

Gradi says he did nothing wrong and that he will help in the FA's review.

Heath, who has since died, has been accused of abuse in the 1970s and 1980s by several people.

Meanwhile, Manchester City will play Leicester City at 1.30am Sunday in the English Premier League.
