David Coote has been suspended as a Premier League referee and a VAR official while the FA and UEFA investigate a video of the official calling Jurgen Klopp a 'German c***'
Premier League referee David Coote, who was recently suspended, has reportedly been caught on camera snorting a white substance in a video allegedly filmed during his time at Euro 2024. Coote's suspension came after a video believed to have been recorded several years ago surfaced, where he is purportedly seen making derogatory remarks about Jurgen Klopp and criticising a Liverpool performance.
UEFA has also responded by removing him from their list of officials for upcoming international matches. In a new development reported by The Sun, an eight-second WhatsApp video allegedly shows Coote using a rolled-up US banknote to snort a line of what appears to be a white substance. He is alleged to have sent the video to a friend, and it is claimed he recorded himself in the UEFA-funded hotel room he was staying in during the tournament. Earlier in the competition, Coote reportedly sent another photo from Frankfurt, which appeared to show his credit cards on a saucer next to six lines of a white powdery substance, reports the Mirror.
In light of the recent allegations, a PGMOL spokesperson has stated they are treating the matter with utmost seriousness. They confirmed that Coote is still under investigation but is receiving support from the organisation.
