Chelsea manager Graham Potter made the shocking revelation on Friday that he has been sent death threats, aimed at him and his family.
Potter has come under mounting pressure during his team’s poor run of form but this sinister new development is sure to spark concern throughout the game.
‘As much as I’ve had support, I’ve had some not particularly nice emails come through that want me to die and want my kids to die,’ said Potter, who was supposed to be talking about Sunday's London derby at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
