On behalf of everybody at The FA I'd like to say how sorry we are to learn that Fabrice Muamba has had to end his professional football career.
His recovery has been miraculous and a great tribute to all who have been involved.
I would like to wish him the very best for the future and I know that the thoughts of the entire football family will be with him.
The force has been charged under the Health and Safety Act and will appear before magistrates in May.
