David Sullivan agreed to avoid West Ham women’s and youth teams amid allegations

David Sullivan West Ham FA
  • David Sullivan, the former West Ham joint chair, has denied allegations of sexually exploitative and predatory behaviour.
  • He agreed to a "temporary agreement" with the Football Association (FA) to avoid one-on-one meetings with West Ham's women and youth team players.
  • This agreement followed an FA safeguarding investigation in 2023 concerning a historic complaint from 1981, which Sullivan denies ever occurred.
  • Seven women also reported claims of predatory behaviour against Sullivan dating back to the 1980s and 1990s, which he "categorically denies."
  • Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy has demanded an urgent explanation from the FA and West Ham regarding their handling of these serious allegations.
