Moments earlier Molumby had been fouled by the Portuguese midfielder after which the pair squared up to each other, before Albion's Republic of Ireland international swung at his opponent's face.
No action was taken by the match referee though boss Carlos Corberan substituted the player at half-time. Molumby has been given until August 9 to respond to the charge.
West Brom lost the game, which was played behind closed doors at their training ground, to a goal in the second half by Mallorca's David Lopez.
