Wolves forward Daniel Podence has denied spitting at Brennan Johnson during Saturday's 1-1 draw with Nottingham Forest after being charged by the FA.
The incident occurred in the 90th minute and was checked by the VAR at the time but no action was taken by referee Chris Kavanagh.
The FA has since charged Podence but, reacting to the news on social media, the 27-year-old denied the allegation.
He said on his Instagram story: "As I have been accused of something I haven't done... I will make it clear.
"I did not spit on Nottingham's player. I'm telling the truth and I would never do such a thing even more to a colleague. Thank you."
After the game at the City Ground, Johnson said he was surprised Podence escaped punishment.
He said: "I'm not going to allegate him, but I felt like some sort of spit came towards my face. The referees have had a look at it, so it's done now. I'm completely fine with it.
