The incident happened during the second-half of Leeds United's 2-1 defeat to Aston Villa on Sunday.

A Leeds United fan who attempted to approach Daniel Farke's dugout during the Aston Villa game was arrested by police.

The incident occurred during the second half of Leeds' 2-1 home loss, amid angry chants for Farke to make substitutions. A man was seen walking out of the West Stand and through the Villa technical area on his way towards Farke. Security staff and stewards intervened and escorted him back into the stand and out of the stadium bowl.

Farke said after the game that he was unaware of the attempted approach.

A West Yorkshire Police statement revealed the man had been issued with a caution: "A 61 year old man was arrested on suspicion of an offence under the Football (Offences) Act 1961 – going into an area adjacent to the playing area at the Leeds V Aston Villa game on Sunday 23 November. He has been issued with a caution."
