Mike Dean has gone viral once again when he hilariously asks “Who the fuck is he?” after shaking hands with mystery man before Southampton’s match against Tottenham.
The man, wearing a smart grey coat, was in front of Harry Kane and Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg on the centre circle, those it seemed the officials didn’t know that the individual was in fact representing one of the match sponsors.

It came after he posed for photos, the cameras then zoomed in on the referee doing their handshakes – only fir Mike Dean to then turn to his lino to question who he was.
Certainly made brilliant viewing.

The video was uploaded and shared across social media, and so far, the clip has been viewed over 2 million times!
Dean also made the headlines at the end of the game when he showed Jose Mourinho a yellow card after he had been caught spying at a tactics board being held on the Southampton bench.
The Portuguese boss was left unhappy especially after seeing his team lose 1-0 to another Danny Ings goal.
He admitted he deserved to be booked, but also hit out at Southampton goalkeeping coach Andrew Sparkes.

He told BT Sport: “I was rude. But I was rude with an idiot.
“I clearly deserved the yellow card. I had bad words.”
Southampton’s win meant that they climbed up to 12th in the Premier League table, stretching their unbeaten run to four games. Tottenham sit 6th.
