FANS have been left in hysterics after Mike Dean’s wardrobe choice on Sky Sports.
The former referee is now working for the broadcaster as an expert on Soccer Saturday.
Dean, 55, got into the festive spirit for the Premier League fixtures with his jumper.
He wore a green top that was football and Christmas themed.
The jumper featured the Premier League logo lion with a Santa hat on it.
It also featured a text saying “VAR Humbug”, as a play on the Xmas phrase “bah humbug”.

Fans spotted the jumper as they flocked to social media to comment.
One fan posted: “Even in retirement it really still is Mike Dean’s world we’re all living in.”
A second wrote: “Var is the kind of thing Scrooge would come up with tbf.”
A third commented: “Credit where credit’s due, that jumper is hard.”

A fourth said: “No matter what you can say about him, or about VAR, or the PGMOL, this is a hilarious jumper.”
Another added: “WHERE CAN I GET THIS.”
Dean stopped officiating at the end of the 2021/22 Premier League campaign.
He then started a new role as one of two full-time VAR officials with PGMOL.
But that switch has not panned out as expected and he did not receive a top-flight appointment from February leading to his career switch to Sky Sports.
