Jose Mourinho fined £8,000 by FA after being found guilty of improper conduct

Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho is fined £8,000 by the FA after being found guilty of improper conduct following last month's match against Aston Villa.

The Football Association have announced that Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has been fined £8,000 for re-entering the field of play against Aston Villa last month.

The Portuguese coach was charged by the English governing body for confronting referee Chris Foy around the 90th minute of the Blues' 1-0 defeat to Villa.

Mourinho expressed his frustration after Ramires was sent off in the dying minutes of the match, which earlier saw Willian given his marching orders.

The ex-Real Madrid boss, who has also been warned about his future conduct, denied the charge and requested a personal hearing.

A statement from the FA said: "Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has been fined £8,000 and warned as to his future conduct following an Independent Regulatory Commission hearing.

"Mourinho denied a breach of FA Rule E3 in that his behaviour in re-entering the field of play and approaching the match referee in an attempt to speak to him, in or around the 90th minute of the game against Aston Villa on March 15, 2014, amounted to improper conduct. However, the charge was found proven at a personal hearing on Wednesday 9 April."

The news comes after Mourinho guided his side into the Champions League semi-finals following a 2-0 win over Paris Saint-Germain at Stamford Bridge on Tuesday night.
