Tim Cahill will miss the start of the new Premier League season as he is set to sit out a three-match ban.
Cahill was sent off at the end of the final game of the season against Newcastle after reacting angrily to comments made by Newcastle's Yohan Cabaye.
The Newcastle United player later issued a statement on their official website.
I would like to apologise for the cross words I exchanged with Tim Cahill which resulted in his red card and my booking on the final whistle,'
But while Cabaye admitted his comments were the catalyst for Cahill's sending off the Football Association have rejected Everton's appeal and Cahill has accepted his three-game suspension.
'My reaction at the end of the game was out of character but I was disgusted at comments made to me by Cabaye.' Cahill told the media.
He continued: 'I don't wish to elaborate on the exact detail of what was said - but his words have no place either on or off the football pitch.
'Cabaye has apologised via his club's website and as far as I am concerned the matter is now closed.'
