Mike Dean has been removed as the fourth official for Tottenham’s trip to Chelsea on Wednesday.

The decision to remove Dean follows his confrontation with Mauricio Pochettino at the end of Tottenham’s loss to Burnley on Saturday.

Pochettino was involved in a furious confrontation with Dean in the centre-circle at full-time, while his assistant Jesus Perez could be seen angrily pointing his finger towards the official’s face.

All those involved refused to disclose what was said when asked to comment by reporters.

Dean was due to be fourth official for Tottenham’s trip to Stamford Bridge on Sunday.

However, the Professional Game Match Officials Board (PGMOL) have confirmed Dean will now be on the touchline for Manchester City’s match against West Ham at the Etihad.
