Former Premier League referee Mark Clattenburg has revealed that he considered taking his own life after he was wrongly accused of racism.
The official was accused of making a racist comment towards two Chelsea players, including John Obi Mikel, in a fixture against Manchester United in 2012.
The allegations triggered investigations by the Football Association and the Metropolitan Police.
Clattenburg missed four weeks of Premier League action while the FA investigated the complaint.
The allegations were later dismissed by the Football Association and the police dropped their own inquiry.
