🎥 Premier League referee Mike Dean as you've never seen him before

Premier League referee Mike Dean has become one of English football’s most prized assets.

Dean became the first Premier League referee to brandish 100 red cards earlier this season and it’s rare that the 50-year-old doesn’t add a bit of extra entertainment to a game he’s refffing.
