The breaches of the rules are said to have taken place between November 20 2024 and February 12 this year, which includes the time he spent with the Millers.

The young Everton striker played in 10 games for Rotherham last season in a loan spell that began in August and ended in late December.

He was an instant hit, scoring twice in his first four outings, but injuries plagued him while he was at AESSEAL New York Stadium and he returned to his parent club on the final day of 2025.

In a statement released last week. the FA said that they are taking action in respect of 61 bets placed on football matches.

After leaving the League One Millers, Sherif went on loan to another third-tier side, Port Vale, hitting the target twice in 19 outings.
