83 suspects in football abuse inquiry

There are now 83 potential suspects and 98 clubs involved in the inquiry into child abuse in football, police chiefs have said.

The investigations span all tiers of football, from premier clubs through to amateur, the National Police Chiefs' Council (NPCC) said.

Police forces across the country are continuing to receive calls, it added.

The NPCC's lead for child protection said the allegations were "being swiftly acted upon" by police.
