Leeds United defender Giuseppe Bellusci has been cleared by the Football Association of racially abusing Norwich City striker Cameron Jerome.
The FA had initially charged Bellusci with using 'abusive and/or insulting words including reference to ethnic origin and/or colour and/or race' towards Jerome during the Championship fixture between the two teams on October 21.
However, after Bellusci denied the charge, the case against the 25-year-old Italian could not be proven by an Independent Regulatory Commission.
Bellusci has made 20 appearances for Leeds since joining the club from Catania during the summer.
