Background: Coote faces a Category A offense linked to a video file that police seized in February 2025. Category A represents the most serious type of offense. The charge of “creating an indecent image of a child” can involve actions such as downloading, distributing, or possessing materials that indicate exploitation.

Previously, Coote was suspended for eight weeks due to offensive remarks aimed at Jürgen Klopp, and UEFA has banned him until June 2026.
