FA wants to see Rio mobile phone records

RIO FERDINAND will be asked by the Football Association for his mobile phone records before they decide on any charges for missing a drugs test.

It is understood that the FA are to request the records plus some additional information from Manchester United as part of their investigation.

Only then will they decide whether the United defender is to be charged with 'failing to attend an anti-doping test' or the more serious offence of 'wilful failure to attend an anti-doping test'.
