UEFA has appointed an ethics and disciplinary inspector to investigate under-fire referee David Coote.
Coote, 42, is currently suspended by referees' body PGMOL, who launched an investigation after a video emerged of him calling former Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp a 'German c***' and the Reds 's***'.
A separate damning video was then published on Wednesday evening of a man alleged to be Coote snorting a white powder in a hotel room while he was officiating at last summer's Euros.
If the footage is genuine then it will be damning for the 42-year-old's future in professional football with the termination of his association with the PGMOL a likely outcome.
