Halsey made an official complaint to police on Monday after receiving messages following his participation in Manchester United's 2-1 win against Liverpool last weekend.

The 51-year-old told BBC Sport: "I can confirm that my family have made a complaint to the police.

"I will be speaking to the police on Wednesday after I have returned from refereeing Southampton v Sheffield Wednesday."

Halsey sent off Jonjo Shelvey and awarded United a late penalty during a fiercely competitive match at Anfield, in a performance which drew criticism from Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers and captain Steven Gerrard.
