Everton's Yerry Mina has been charged with misconduct in relation to the FA's betting rules.

It is alleged that the 24-year-old defender breached FA Rule E8 (3) by participating in an advertisement for betting activity, which he is prohibited from engaging in.

It is understood Mina took part in a Colombian betting advert, which due to strict match fixing rules, he is not allowed to participate in.

The FA confirmed he has until Friday to provide a response.

Mina is currently not part of the Everton pre-season squad - he is being given extra holiday time after appearing for Colombia at the Copa America this summer.
