Police have said the number of clubs impacted by British football's child sex abuse scandal has climbed to 248, with 184 suspects and 526 potential victims.
The National Police Chiefs' Council said 97 percent of the victims were male, with an age range of between four and 20.
The updated figures, which cover both amateur and professional football, have been disclosed two months after former professionals started to reveal historic abuse.
There have been 1,016 referrals to the national police investigation from a charity's dedicated football hotline and forces around the country.
Police chief constable Simon Bailey, who works nationally on child protection issues, said "allegations of non-recent child sexual abuse are complex, and often require specialist skills and knowledge and can take time to progress."
