UEFA have released the intro for the 2019/20 Champions League season with updated clips from the previous campaign.

The video features Gini Wijnaldum’s passionate celebrations following his second goal against Barcelona in the dramatic 4-0 win at Anfield.

The intro obviously ends with the current holders of the CL – us – with our captain lifting ol’ big ears over his head.

I only have one complaint: the intro is seriously lacking a bit of Divock Origi!

Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea's popstar WAG has wowed her online followers with these sizzling bikini snaps as they holiday together in a mystery location.

De Gea’s wife Edurne Garcia shared stunning bikini snaps on Instagram for her 1.1 million followers.

The pretty popstar shared the snaps with the messages "in paradise”.

Liverpool unveil major change inside Anfield tunnel - and fans absolutely love it

LIVERPOOL have updated the tunnel at Anfield to reflect their impressive six Champions League victories after beating Tottenham in the 2019 final earlier this month.

Jurgen Klopp's Reds clinched the famous big-eared trophy on June 1 with a comfortable 2-0 win over Spurs, thanks to an early penalty from Mohamed Salah and a late Divock Origi strike.

And the famous 'Walk of Champions' emblazoned on the way to the pitch at Anfield has been changed, with the '5' on the European Cup being edited to a '6'.

It didn't look as though Liverpool would get the chance to compete for another title however, as the Reds trailed Barcelona 3-0 in the semi-finals after a heavy defeat at the Camp Nou.

But the spirited Reds produced a sensational display at Anfield in the second leg to book their spot at the Wanda Metropolitano, where they were able to go ahead of the Catalan side and third in the all-time charts, with six Champions League triumphs compared to Barcelona's five.

Only Real Madrid (13) and AC Milan (7) have claimed the iconic trophy more times.

Boss Klopp joined legends Bob Paisley, Joe Fagan, Rafa Benitez as only the fourth Reds manager to bring home the cup, writing his name in Liverpool folklore with an impressive campaign that also saw the Merseysiders miss out on the Premier League title by a solitary point.

Despite the disappointment of a second-place finish in the league, fans were sent into ecstasy with the European victory and many took to Twitter after the tunnel's artwork was updated.

One fan wrote: "This tunnel will be upgraded very often from now."

Another added: "That number 6 looks pretty damn good."

A third fan asked: "When's the life-sized Origi decal getting added lads?"

"Super Cup is the next stop," wrote one supporter.

Another fan simply added: "Wow."

Although Liverpool fans were raving over the new print, other supporters couldn't help but have a joke at the Reds' expense.

Posting a photo of the Premier League trophy, one Chelsea fan wrote: "Sorry but I can't see this? Which tunnel you put this?"

A Manchester United fan added: "The one with 18 trophies is great.

"Can't increase anymore in 30 years."

Mesut Ozil, who quit the national team following a backlash over a photo-op with the Turkish president, widely criticised in Germany for his domestic policies, invited him to his wedding.

Arsenal footballer Mesut Ozil has married his long-time girlfriend, former Miss Turkey Amine Gulse, at a luxury hotel in Istanbul.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and his wife Emine were the posh ceremony’s honorary guests.

Photos and videos of the Turkish first couple, standing smiling next to the footballer and his bride during the ceremony against the backdrop of the Bosphorus, spread online prompting a backlash on social media.

His public support for the Turkish president has already impacted the course of Ozil’s career. The footballer, born in Germany to a Turkish family, quit the national team, saying he has “this feeling of racism and disrespect”, following the backlash for his relations with Erdogan and Germany’s poor results in the 2018 World Cup.

Ozil and Ilkay Gündogan, another German player of Turkish descent, faced public anger in May 2018, after meeting with Erdogan and presenting him a jersey. Many, including the German Football Federation (DFB) and its president Richard Grindel, claimed they had assisted in his “election campaign stunt” after the photos of the meeting emerged online. In response, Ozil stated then that the picture was not meant to deliver any political message, but solely demonstrate respect for his heritage.
Despite the public uproar, he still invited the Turkish president to his wedding earlier this year, prompting disappointment from many politicians and football fans in Germany, who have criticised Erdogan over his policy towards the opposition and journalists.

According to France 24, Erdogan’s appearance at Ozil’s wedding is by no means a one-off experience as the Turkish president often graces the ceremonies of local celebrities. Notably, Ozil’s came ahead of a mayoral election in Istanbul.

Real Madrid have revealed their stunning new strip ahead of the 2019-20 campaign.

The classic white is combined with a gold badge, three gold adidas stripes and sponsor Fly Emirates' logo is also in gold.

The new design is inspired by the golden crown which has sat above the team's badge ever since they received their 'Real' title in 1920.The word 'Real' was given to the club when King of Spain, Alfonso XIII, granted the side the title.

Los Blancos have not had gold on their jersey design since the 2011-12 season.

The kits boasts Climalite technology which is designed to absorb sweat and for a men's shirt it will set you back £69.95.

A women's kit cost the same while a kid's top is priced at £49.95.Gareth Bale, who is widely expected to leave the club this summer, was photographed wearing the kit alongside the likes of captain Sergio Ramos, Isco and Luka Modric.

One player who is also expected to be wearing this new kit is Chelsea star Eden Hazard.

Hazard is set to join Zinedine Zidane's side after Chelsea accepted a £130million offer for the brilliant Belgian.

Reported last week that Blues director Marina Granovskaia was to meet Real executives - a firm indication that the protracted move was close to completion.

Now an agreement has been reached between the clubs, with Real agreeing to pay an initial £88m, rising to £130m dependent on various bonuses and incentives.

Hazard will also be joined by new arrival at the Bernabeu, Luka Jovic, who completed his move on Monday for £62m.

Take a look at the first pictures of the new Liverpool away kit for the 2019/20 season launched today
Liverpool unveiled their brand new away kit for the 2019/20 campaign on Friday morning.

The strip, which is the final instalment in the club's current agreement with New Balance, was officially made public and released for sale at 9am and marks a shift away from recent trends from the American manufacturers.

Liverpool's last three away kits have all featured striking colours, with last year's ' Deep Violet ' following on from ' Bold Citrus ' and ' Toxic Thunder '.
Moving away from such themes, this season's strip is a more demure white and navy, with Bob Paisley's signature stitched into the inside of the neck in the same way it is for the home and goalkeeper jerseys.

To commemorate the tragic events of Hillsborough, the 96 emblem, encased by the eternal flames sits at the nape of the neck, again, in the same fashion as the home strip.

The kit is completed with navy shorts, and white socks complimented with a lower navy section and red trim. The goalkeeper jersey features in green with matching socks.

The kit launches as part of New Balance’s “Live it” campaign for the 19/20 season, which "aims to encapsulate the legendary spirit that unites Liverpool FC fans across the world."

Fans can also get their hands on the three official UEFA Champions League winners patches for both sleeves, including the 2019 trophy patch, six-time winners' and 'Respect' patch.

The Reds signed an eye-watering deal worth a reported £300million back in 2015 with New Balance. The deal saw Boston-based New Balance sell official Liverpool merchandise in their 500 stores worldwide.

The partnership with New Balance was a record-breaking multi-year agreement which replaced the existing six-year deal with Warrior which was signed before the start of the 2012/13 season.

However, the contract expires next summer and the club are keen to secure an even more lucrative deal they feel matches their current standing in world football.

Last Saturday's Champions League final triumph has only strengthened their bargaining position further.

And Liverpool remains open to negotiations from all manufacturers as they seek a deal that places them on par with Manchester United's current £75m-a-year agreement with Adidas.

The kit is on sale at the official Liverpool FC store.

Liverpool players and staff leave their hotel and head to Real Madrid's training ground for their final session before the Champions League final.

Ahead of Liverpool’s Champions League final in Madrid against Tottenham Hotspur, a video has captured what may be a bad omen in the Reds’ dressing room.

Eden Hazard has been pictured for the first time holding a Real Madrid shirt ahead of his £115million summer transfer from Chelsea.

The Belgium international said "goodbye" to Chelsea fans after winning the Europa League against Arsenal and is expected to put pen to paper with Los Blancos within the next week.

Pictures, exclusively obtained by Mirror Sport and taken this Friday at midday, show Hazard on holiday in Marbella, Spain.

A source said Hazard signed the Real Madrid shirt, which was handed to him by a Barcelona-supporting waiter, who joked about the Belgian joining the Catalan giants instead.

Hazard, who is on holiday with his family, replied "No", indicating his heart is set on a transfer to Real Madrid, before holding up the Los Blancos shirt and having his photograph taken with the man.

Hazard, 28, made clear his intentions to leave Chelsea when interviewed on BT Sport following the Europa League final in Baku on Wednesday.
"I think it's a goodbye but in football you never know," he told reporters.

"We will decide in a few days - the only target in my mind was to win this final. Maybe now it is the time for a new challenge.
"My dream was to play in the Premier League and I have done that for one of the biggest clubs."

Chelsea manager Maurizio Sarri was equally honest about the likelihood of the transfer, adding: "I know he wants to leave and I have to respect his decision.
"He is a wonderful player. It took two or three months for me to understand him as a man and now I do, he's a wonderful man.
"He's an extraordinary player. He is a strange boy but when he understands it is extraordinary."

Hazard is set to become Real Madrid's latest Galactico as Zinedine Zidane kick-starts a huge summer overhaul at the Bernabeu.
Once Hazard is through the door the club will turn its attention to the likes of Paul Pogba, Ferland Mendy and Luka Jovic.

Meanwhile at Chelsea, the Stamford Bridge club are looking to replace Hazard quickly by bringing in former Liverpool star Philippe Coutinho.

As reported by Mirror Sport, the Barcelona midfielder is deemed surplus to requirements at the Nou Camp just 18 months after his £142million transfer.
Chelsea have been banned from signing players during the next two transfer windows, until the end of January 2020.

The club insists they are innocent and are prepared to go as far as appealing to the Court of Arbitration for Sport to get the decision overturned.

Paul Pogba has been urged to 'stop driving like a w*****' as he left his £300,000 Rolls Royce Wraith in Wilmslow train station's car park.

But that's not all as the Manchester United star was given a parking ticket for his troubles on Monday afternoon.

It is unknown where the World Cup-winning midfielder was heading to on his day off but the £60 parking fine won't be an issue once he returns to his luxury vehicle.

Jonathan Walters believes Tottenham will have to sign a new striker this month and has suggested one possible candidate.

Spurs have been rocked by the news that Harry Kane will be out of action until March after scans revealed he had sustained damage to his ankle ligaments in the late stages of the game with Manchester United at the weekend.

It means the England international will miss a host of important games including the club’s Champions League knockout fixture against Borussia Dortmund next month.

Speaking on the BBC 5 Live Football Daily podcast, Walters said it could be time for Daniel Levy to sanction a January deal.

"It’s a difficult one because a lot of the big teams don’t tend to do their transfer business in January,” he said.

"They tend to wait until the summertime. They’ve watched them a certain number of times, they go through and do their homework, and to bring someone in is a risk, but at the point Tottenham are now in the season and where they are in the league and the big games they’ve got coming up in the Champions League as well they might just need to go and forfeit the money to go and bring someone in."

The solution to Tottenham's problems, according to the former Stoke City man is....continue here

The winner of the 2015 Miss BumBum competition has surprised her fans with a video of herself having Barcelona star Lionel Messi's name tattooed above her famous derriere.

Suzy Cortez, 28, shared the video and pictures with her more than 1.5 million Instagram followers on Monday, despite the fact Messi and his wife have actually blocked her on social media due to her incessant messages.

The Brazilian model now has her favorite player’s last name on her waistline right above her left buttock.

Nigerian veteran journalist Kemi Olunloyo obliged us an interview where she really made herself clear. She said she was offended by the powder, not the accent content. She felt hurt because the powder look was on her face when she got out of prison after showering in her hotel room that same night on January 9th, 2018.

In the video the former fake Big Brother Nigeria housemate made, she was seen with powder on her face and trying to mimic the journalist. The Instagram post gathered a lot of likes.

Kemi wrote on Instagram:

THANK YOU FOR BEING A SINCERE HUMAN
To a wonderful young lady @eriata_ese
#EseEriata
Thank you for being a real human being who did not distort my content but only wanted to mimick my accent. Ese reached out to me for the love she says she has for my work and for me in general. She called me a person with a good heart and regretted she may have caused some hurt but simply loved my accent. I told her that when I have my online master classes in language, she will be my special guest. Ese sympathized with my incarceration and loss of livelihood.
__

Last night in the midst of her hosting an event, she contacted me to tell me she wanted to send me a New Year’s gift to help my radio fund as I’m crowdfunding for my own radio station online since nobody will hire me due to NBC Censorship. She credited my radio fund with a 50K gift. A wonderful young lady young enough to be my daughter. A daughter who cares. For all the others mimicking my newscasts AND distorting what I did not say especially @therealfemi who has refused to apologise or take his content down, don’t burn your bridges, you may be unable to cross it again.
GOD BLESS YOU ESE.

Ese Eriata has now apologized. Take a listen here.

Lionel Messi may be the GOAT, but he’s only the seventh most valuable player in the world currently, according to a new report.

The CIES Football Observatory reckon the Barcelona captain is worth €171.2m, which is way below PSG striker Kylian Mbappe who tops the charts at €218.5m.
Barcelona’s other representative in the top 10 is Philippe Coutinho who comes in just behind Messi at €157.0m.

The valuations are determined by the CIES’ ‘exclusive algorithm’ which considers a variety of attributes including age, results, position and league. More details are available here.

Here’s a list of the top 10 most valuable players, according to the CIES.

Fred was in an offside position and Mata played the ball to him immediately before being fouled.

The genuine question on the lips of many Manchester United fans is if Fred is offside surely that should stop play as soon as the ball is played to him meaning a penalty can't be given for a subsequent foul?

Well, it appears when a player is wiped out after passing or shooting the ball in the box a penalty is given. These never normally happened.

Penalties are only ever given when the player is dribbling. I think the VAR might finally change that.

See the video here...

Sergio Romero kept a clean sheet, despite being tested at times by the Royals, while a first-half penalty given by the VAR system and confidently converted by Juan Mata, plus a second goal on the stroke of half-time by Romelu Lukaku, were enough for the Reds to win.

Here's what Solskjaer had to say in his post-match interviews with MUTV, BT Sport and other reporters after the game.

“I made it tough for my team. It was a tough game, but 2-0 and a clean sheet [is good].

“I made it tough for us because when you make nine changes it is never easy for a team that has never played together so I am delighted that we are in the next round.

We work together every single day and of course, we know we need some fitness work and some work on relationships, but today I put a team together that has never played together and we are through so that is good.

“Reading played well. We analysed them, we knew they were going to come and play and I have to say they played well.

“They have some quality players and they made us work hard to get possession and when we got the ball we were too wasteful, we know that.
“We have spoken about loads of things to improve on."

Liverpool suffered their first defeat of the English Premier League (EPL) season when they lost to rivals Manchester City 1-2 at the Etihad Stadium. Sergio Aguero had given City the lead in the 40th minute with a fierce shot from a tight angle that got past goalkeeper Alisson. Roberto Firmino equalised for Liverpool with a close-range header from a cushioned volley from Andy Robertson. But Leroy Sane made sure that City leave the match with all three points when he struck the winner in the 72nd minute.

But it was the celebration of Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp that has caught the eyes of the fans. After Firmino struck the equaliser for the Merseyside team, Klopp could not hide his excitement and pulled a water bottle out of his jacket. Then he crushed the bottle with his hands in a bizarre act. The celebration has gone viral and has been shared and talked about by a lot of people on social media.

Access Bank Plc and Diamond Bank Plc customers will as from Tuesday have access to 3,100 of their Automated Teller Machines (ATMs), without paying the customary N65 per transactions.

“Wishing everyone a happy new year. Now with over 3100 ATMs free to use for all our customers,” the Diamond bank tweeted on Tuesday.

The move follows the bank’s decision to merge with Access Bank Plc, in a bid to become the biggest retail bank in Africa.

This means that customers of the bank will be at a great advantage over the Central Bank of Nigeria’s 2014 directive that cash withdrawal at another bank other than an account holder’s bank would cost N65, while withdrawal at the ATMs of a customer’s bank is free.

The CBN’s policy stated that the first three transactions in a month by the customer of another bank are free for the cardholder but paid for by the issuing bank.

Diamond Bank’s announcement is, in fact, saying all transactions across Access Bank ATMs are free, showing that the banks are now one in principle.

The bank also stated that the merger will lead to a bigger entity with 29 million customers, 3,100 ATM machines, 32,000 Points of Sale (POS) machines and 13 million mobile accounts.

Manchester United cleared Jose Mourinho's office out in just five minutes after he was axed, it has been claimed.

With United 19 points off the Premier League and rivals, Ed Woodward was forced to take action.

United's executive vice-chairman hauled Mourinho in for a 44-minute chat and sacked him on the spot.

Mourinho's pictures and trophies were among the items to have been boxed up.

It is understood Mourinho's personal belongings were then transported away.

Despite the brutal nature of Mourinho's sacking, the 55-year-old released a statement revealing he was proud to have managed Manchester United.

"I have been immensely proud to wear the badge of Manchester United since the first day I arrived, and I believe all United supporters recognise this," Mourinho penned.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has been celebrating Christmas in style with his £270,000 gold Lamborghini.

The Premier League top scorer posted a video on Instagram picking out Gucci clothes with Barcelona star Ousmane Dembele.

Aubameyang wrapped his supercar in a gold coating last month and showed it off around Regent Street.

Aubameyang could be the key to convincing his former Borussia Dortmund teammate Dembele to join.

Arsenal didn't look like they needed Dembele against Burnley as Aubameyang scored twice against Sean Dyche's side on Saturday.

Aubameyang's team-mate Sokratis Papastathopoulos believes the forward can win the golden boot.

Aubameyang has scored 12 league goals this campaign and is currently one ahead of Liverpool's Mohamed Salah and Harry Kane.The Arsenal striker will be hoping to add to his tally at the Amex against Brighton on Boxing day where he scored last season in a 2-1 defeat.
