Uefa bans scandal referee

Advertisement

The European Football Association (Uefa) is suspending the English scandal referee in football, David Coote, until June 30, 2026.

In a video published in December, Coote made derogatory comments about Liverpool's former coach Jürgen Klopp.

The Premier League referee was fired and later explained that the video was recorded with friends several years ago, that he was not sober at the time and that he had forgotten about the video.

Uefa also found in its investigation a video where Coote appears to be using cocaine in connection with the European Championship last year, where Coote was a video referee.
