A report’s found the undercover investigation that led to Sam Allardyce being sacked as England boss after 67 days was justified in the public interest.
The press watchdog has upheld three of the former Sunderland manager’s 25 complaints against the Daily Telegraph.
It says the paper wrongly suggested, Allardyce had implied third parties could benefit from transfer fees, and he hadn’t told reporters how to break ownership rules.
Big Sam now says he’s considering legal action following the report.
