Lee Kendall has resigned as England Women's goalkeeping coach



England Women's goalkeeping coach Lee Kendall has announced his resignation.

Kendall has decided to quit his post despite an FA investigation concluding that no further action should be taken against him.

The FA investigated claims made by England player Eni Aluko that Kendall repeatedly spoke to her in a Caribbean accent.

Chelsea forward Aluko, who is of African descent, made her claims during a review of the culture of the England team.

An FA statement read: "The FA has completed its investigation into allegations made by Eniola Aluko regarding Lee Kendall.

"The investigation has now concluded and it was decided that no further action was necessary.

"Despite the FA's conclusion, Lee Kendall has decided to resign from his position as goalkeeping coach of the England Women's senior team.

"It is Lee's choice to focus on the future and on pursuing his career elsewhere. We wish him well for the future."
