Saudi Arabia could offer an escape route for David Coote - should the under-fire official get the sack for leaked video labelling Jurgen Klopp a 'German ***' and Liverpool 's***'

Saudi Arabia could offer an escape route for David Coote – should the under-fire referee end up with the sack. Officials from refs’ body PGMOL are continuing to investigate the 42-year-old after a shock video, in which he calls Jurden Klopp a ‘German ****’ and Liverpool ‘s***’ was leaked online. David Coote described Jurgen Klopp as a 'German ****' in a foul-mouthed tirade during the video and has since been suspended by refereeing chiefs PGMOL while they investigate Coote tells the camera 'that f***ing last video cannot go anywhere' in the second video uploaded online while the man identified as Kitt says 'let's not 'f***ing ruin his career' Michael Oliver was paid £3,000 and given business class flights when he travelled to Saudi Arabia to referee a top-flight match between Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al-Nassr and Al-Hilal Michael Oliver was paid £3,000 and given business class flights when he travelled to Saudi Arabia to referee a top-flight match between Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al-Nassr and Al-Hilal. That fee was roughly double what Oliver would command for a Premier League fixture and others followed his move before chief refereeing officer Howard Webb said approval would only be given should there be a ‘development opportunity’ for officials – such as younger refs – to gain valuable experience.
