Referee David Coote is facing a mounting wave of scrutiny. Following his offensive remarks about Liverpool, which led to his suspension and an investigation by the Premier League, UEFA has now launched its own inquiry.
Details: In addition to the English authorities, UEFA has initiated a separate investigation to assess potential violations of its disciplinary rules by Coote. The announcement was made on the UEFA website.
Quote: "The UEFA Ethics and Disciplinary Inspector has been appointed to assess potential violations of UEFA Disciplinary Regulations by referee David Coote. Further information will be provided in due course."
Reminder: In the controversial video, Coote labelled Liverpool as "shit" and Jurgen Klopp as a "German b*d."
