EFL charge Reading owner Yongge Dai with misconduct… after Royals were docked three points last week following failure to pay wages on three separate occasions

Reading owner Yongge Dai has been charged with misconduct by the EFL.

The charge relates to a failure to comply with an order from an independent disciplinary commission to deposit an amount equal to 125 per cent of the club’s forecast monthly wage bill into a designated account by September 12.

Reading were docked three points on September 13 over the failure to comply with the order, which had been imposed after the club did not pay player wages on time and in full on or around October 31 and November 30 last year, and on April 28 this year.

‘This matter will now be considered by an independent disciplinary commission in accordance with EFL regulations.’
