• Referees’ body says it is taking allegations ‘very seriously’
• Coote was suspended over remarks about Jürgen Klopp

The Premier League’s refereeing body has said it is aware of footage allegedly showing David Coote sniffing white powder.

The video emerged after Professional Game Match Officials Ltd (PGMOL) and the Football Association launched investigations into Coote after remarks he made about Jürgen Klopp in a video that surfaced online this week.
