Premier League referee David Coote was suspended this Monday (11) after appearing on video swearing at Liverpool and its former coach, Jürgen Klopp. In the leaked excerpt, the judge calls Klopp an idiot and states that the video cannot be exposed.

“As well as criticizing me when I refereed them against Burnley in lockdown, then he (Klopp) accused me of lying and then criticized me. I have no interest in talking to someone who is arrogant as hell. So I do my best not to talk to him (…) My God, stupid Jürgen, f**k me”, comments the judge in the video.

“Long story short: Jürgen Klopp is an idiot, Liverpool are made up of idiots and we hate the Scousers”, added the friend who accompanied him in the video. “Just to be clear, this last video can’t go anywhere, seriously,” concluded Coote.

The removal, reported by Professional Game Match Officials Limited, the organization responsible for refereeing in England, refers to a probably older recording, when Klopp was still in charge of the club. This is because the referee mentions the Covid-19 pandemic quarantine, and a game in 2020, in which Liverpool and Burnley drew 1-1.

David was the referee responsible for refereeing the Reds’ last game, in the 11th round of the English Championship against Aston Villa, last Saturday (09). On that occasion, Liverpool won 2-0.

After the punishment, Professional Match commented in a statement, stating that it will not provide details until the investigation investigating the case is closed, as the images may have been created by artificial intelligence.
