      Antonio Rudiger undergoes surgery and set for long lay-off – as Real Madrid ace faces 12-GAME ban for hurling ice at ref

      by

      REAL MADRID star Antonio Rudiger may miss the rest of the season after having surgery on his knee.Rudiger, 32, has been a mainstay for Real since his move to the Santiago Bernabeu in 2022 from Chelsea.Real Madrid star Antonio Rudiger could be out for two months after knee surgeryCredit: Instagram / toniruedigerRudiger could miss the rest of the season for RealRudiger is facing a lengthy ban for his antics in the Copa del Rey finalThe German threw an ice pack at the refereeHowever, the centre-back had been dealing with “severe” knee pain the last seven months and underwent surgery.Real stated earlier today: “Rudiger has been successfully operated on today for a partial rupture in the external meniscus of his left leg.”The operation went well but the reigning Spanish and European champions may be without the Germany international for the rest of LaLiga’s schedule.According to transfer insider Fabrizio Romano, Rudiger will be sidelined for “almost two months”.Read More on FootballThe ex-Chelsea star, though, was in high spirits after surgery as he posted a picture of himself on social media from his hospital bed with a big smile while giving the camera the thumbs up.The defender also suggested he will be back for the summer’s Club World Cup.Rudiger posted on Instagram: “After I have played more than seven month [sic] with severe pain, it was unfortunately unavoidable that I had to undergo a meniscus surgery. “Now I’m finally pain-free again, and the surgery was a success. Thanks to the medical team and especially @guidospiran.

See you soon and take care of yourselves.”Antonio Rudiger instantly wins over Arsenal fans as former Chelsea defender pays Gunners stars huge complimentNevertheless, Rudiger still faces a lengthy lay-off regardless of how well his rehabilitation goes.That is because of his antics during Saturday’s Copa del Rey final that saw Real losing 3-2 to rivals Barcelona.A raging Rudiger launched an ice pack at referee Ricardo de Burgos Bengoetxea with just 20 seconds of extra-time remaining after Kylian Mbappe was judged to have fouled Eric Garcia in Madrid’s last attack.When the official came over to the bench to dish out red cards the German had to be held back from confronting him by Ferland Mendy and a member of staff.Rudiger’s public apologyThe ex-Roma star and Lucas Vazquez, both of whom were substituted earlier in the match, were sent off after the latter angrily sprinted on to the pitch.Some reports suggested Rudiger told the ref, “You’re a miscarriage’ and called him a “son of a wh***”.The centre-half issued a public apology after those shocking scenes, which also saw Jude Bellingham getting sent off after the final whistle for “approaching the referee aggressively” and needing “to be restrained by team-mates”.Nevertheless, the former Stuttgart star still faces a mammoth 12-match ban for his behaviour in the Spanish Cup final, which was criticised by Germany sporting director Rudi Voller.Rudiger posted on Sunday: “There’s definitely no excuse for my behaviour last night. I’m very sorry for that.Read More on The Sun”We played a very good game from the 2nd half on – After 111 minutes I was not able to help my team anymore and before the final whistle I did a mistake.”Sorry again to the referee and to everyone I have disappointed last night.” More

      Dominic Solanke a shrewd selection for Gameweek 34 despite Tottenham’s miserable form

      by

      DREAM TEAM managers have been perplexed by Tottenham all season long.Ange Postecoglou’s side are languishing 16th in the Premier League and have lost 23 games in all competitions but they’ve also provided lorry-loads of points.A strange season in many waysCredit: AlamyIn fact, six Spurs players have amassed 200+ points this campaign; only Arsenal and Liverpool have more double centurions at the time of writing.The reason for this disconnect is that while Spurs have lost far too many games, they’ve scored more than their fair share of goals, 97 in all competitions to be precise.This attacking pedigree is not to be taken lightly by Dream Team bosses.Looking ahead to Gameweek 34, Dominic Solanke (£3.5m) should be considered a strong option.Solanke scored against Frankfurt in the Europa League quarter-finalsCredit: GettyThe power of hindsight reveals that the England striker was a good punt for Gameweek 33 as he scored his side’s only goal at Anfield in what became Liverpool’s celebratory 5-1 romp.The one-sided nature of that contest meant most Spurs players suffered significant damage but Solanke escaped with a very respectable 10-point haul.And he will surely get a chance to add to his tally on Thursday when Bodo/Glimt visit North London for the first leg of an intriguing Europa League semi-final.Gaffers tempted by Solanke for Gameweek 23, when Spurs are due to face West Ham before the second leg against their Norwegian opponents, can use Thursday’s fixture to scout the 27-year-old further.Most read in FootballBodo/Glimt have punched above their weight in Europe this season but they will be missing several key players at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium due to injuries and suspensions.Solanke has earned 236 points so far this seasonCredit: EPASpurs are one of just four teams set to pull double duty in Gameweek 34, with Arsenal, Manchester United and Chelsea being the others due to their own European semi-final commitments.Given the Blues’ second leg against Djurgarden in the Conference League is offset by a league game against Liverpool, it’s reasonable to deduce that Spurs have the most favourable double header of the lot.The Hammers are among the very few teams below Postecoglou’s side in the table at present and Solanke will fancy his chances of getting on the scoresheet if unleashed upon Graham Potter’s demoralised troops.The ex-Bournemouth forward may not have scored as many goals (13) as would have liked this term but a healthy number of assists (10) means he averages a goal involvement every 132.9 minutes.Only Europa League success will salvage Postecoglou’s second season at SpursCredit: Bradley Collyer/PA WireSon Heung-min (£4.3m) leads the way for total points among his team-mates with 268 but he’s yet to return from injury.James Maddison (£4m), Brennan Johnson (£2.8m), Pedro Porro (£5.1m) and Dejan Kulusevski (£4.1m) have all outscored Solanke to date but the Swedish midfielder has struggled since his spell on the sidelines while the other three are all minutes risks, though the Spaniard is a viable option in defence.Gaffers who like to target as many games as possible should consider Solanke (8.7% ownership) as a potential replacement for the likes of Alexander Isak (£5.7m), Ollie Watkins (£4.7m) and Chris Wood (£3.8m), who all have just four games remaining before the season ends.Spurs could play as many as six games from Gameweek 34 onwards if they make it to the Europa League final.Score PredictorPlay Score Predictor with Dream Team this season!FREE to play£250 weekly prizePredict scores of five selected Premier League fixtures and earn points for accuracyMost points wins weekly cash prizePLAY NOW More

      Bonnie Blue BANNED by Premier League club and escorted out of stadium after offering to give fans a ‘good time’

      CONTROVERSIAL adult content creator Bonnie Blue has been banned from entering the stadium of Premier League club Nottingham Forest.Blue, whose real name is Tia Emma Billinger, tried to enter the club’s stadium during a recent match before she was prevented from entering and escorted off the premises.Controversial OnlyFans model Bonnie Blue has been banned from entering a Premier League groundCredit: InstagramBlue was banned from Nottingham Forest’s City Ground and was ‘escorted off the premises’Credit: RexIt came after the infamous OnlyFans model and internet personality tried to pull a viral stunt when she advertised an offer to “entertain” fans before the visit.Speaking on the Only Stans podcast, she said: “I recently went to a Nottingham Forest game. Well, I attempted to. “I put on my socials, ‘hey boys, I’m going to be at the game, I’d like to film with you afterwards’.”I turn up at the football game and the gate security was like, ‘you are permanently banned from the ground’.READ MORE IN FOOTBALL”I thought when they asked me to go to the side, ‘maybe they’re upgrading my tickets, maybe they want to escort me to my seat, this is quite nice, it’s a good service’.”They asked to see my tickets, I showed them and they took them off me, saying, ‘we’re escorting you off the premises’.”Apparently they don’t discriminate against sex workers but I was banned because I was a sex worker. “I was going to encourage them (the players), give them a good time. I also think if I’m entertaining the supporters it’s less people drinking so I’m actually doing something good for their health.”Most read in FootballBEST ONLINE CASINOS – TOP SITES IN THE UKBlue’s online notoriety exploded earlier this year after she claimed to break the world record for sex after allegedly sleeping with 1,057 men in 24 hours.Another football club have had interactions with Blue, although in the case of Cornish football club Calstock FC, it is in the form of a new sponsorship.Lily Phillips reveals she’s completed latest sex challenge in attempt to one-up Bonnie Blue as she shares queue of menThe Kernow Stone St Pirans League division 2 East (15 below the Prem), unveiled a new kit earlier this month with Blue being revealed as the shirt sponsor.The team swapped their black and yellow stripes to blue while also having the words Bonnie Blue and her logo adorning the front of the team’s kit with the words “Up the Bonnie Blues” written on the back of the shirt.Calstock player Ben Williams explained to Cornwall Live that the extraordinary deal came about rather quickly after one of the players mentioned that Blue was their cousin and was keen to sponsor the team’s kit.He revealed the generous kit sponsorship extends into next season with their away kit as well but has split opinion from some of the team.Williams said: “She’s paying for the whole kit and our away kit next year. “We have had a lot of split opinion online about it and some of the older players’ wives weren’t too happy. “But it’s just a sponsorship for a shirt.

Born in May 1999, Bonnie – whose real name is Tia Billinger – grew up in a small Derbyshire village, and attended the Friesland School in the village of Sandiacre.She has two half-siblings – a sister and a brother – who have always remained out of the public eye.She never knew her biological father, and considers stepfather Nicholas Elliott her dad.Bonnie also became something of a dance star in her local area, and competed in the British Street Dance Championships alongside her sister back in 2015.She also had a part-time job at Poundstretcher as a teenager.After school, she began working in recruitment.In October 2022, Bonnie married Oliver Davidson, who she had started dating when she was just 15.Once they were married, they moved to Australia, where Bonnie continued working in recruitment.However, it was in Australia that she decided to pursue a different line of work, and tried her luck as a ‘cam girl’ – crediting Oliver for giving her the confidence to enter the adult entertainment world.She quickly made a name for herself in the industry, and was soon making £5,000 a week.But while her work life was going from strength to strength, her relationship was crumbling, and she and Oliver split after almost a decade together.She moved over to OnlyFans following her cam girl success, and once again found fame on there.She quickly became a favourite on the site, especially thanks to her “niche” of sleeping with young male students – such as when she bedded 158 students during Nottingham Trent University’s freshers week in September 2024. Bonnie is now estimated to be worth £3 million, and makes around £600,000 a month on OnlyFans.Her family are also supportive of her work, with mum Sarah Billinger even claiming she’s her daughter’s PA, and helps clean up after Bonnie’s events – as well as handing out condoms to young clients. In January 2025, Bonnie claimed to have broken the world record for the most amount of sex in 12 hours, after apparently sleeping with 1,057 men from 1pm to 1am at a secret London event. More

      Man Utd set to break unwanted record without drastic turnaround in final four Premier League games

      by

      RASMUS HOJLUND admitted “I needed that” after scoring just his second Manchester United goal in 2025 to salvage a point at Bournemouth.But the big question remains: Do United need Hojlund?Rasmus Hojlund scored only his second Man Utd goal in 2025 against Bournemouth at the weekendCredit: GettyHojlund is having a difficult campaign in front of goalThe Red Devils are well on track for their worst campaign in Premier League history with Ruben Amorim unable to halt the slide after replacing Erik Ten Hag in November.Of all the damning statistics to point to, the number of goals scored is the most alarming, with just 39 from 34 Prem games so far – only six more than relegated Ipswich.Since 1990, only ONCE before have United ended a league season with less than 50 goals to their name, in 2015/16 with 49 under Dutchman Louis van Gaal, who was sacked minutes after lifting the FA Cup in May 2016.United need 11 goals from their final four games to avoid that feat, having only managed to score 11 goals in their last nine outings.READ MORE IN FOOTBALLThere are issues for Amorim to solve all over the pitch, but attack is one that will make or break his tenure – and his current options simply aren’t up to scratch.Hojlund’s 96th minute equaliser to earn a 1-1 draw at the Cherries on Sunday was his fourth in 29 Prem games for United this term – the same number as Marcus Rashford who made 15 league appearances before joining Aston Villa on loan on February 2.On Instagram post match, Hojlund wrote: “We wanted the win, but I needed that.”The injured duo of Amad Diallo and Joshua Zirkzee have a combined nine Prem goals while Alejandro Garnacho has five and skipper Bruno Fernandes has eight.Most read in FootballJoin SUN CLUB for the Man Utd Files every Thursday plusin-depth coverage and exclusives from Old TraffordBut the spotlight will always come back to Hojlund – the 22-year-old from Atalanta United paid £72m for in July 2023 after netting 10 goals in 34 appearances out in Italy.His tally of 16 goals in 43 games in all competitions last term was a promising start, yet the Danish international has gone backwards since then at the worst possible time.Man Utd legend spotted consoling Rasmus Hojlund and giving Man Utd striker pep talk after 14-minute cameo vs Arsenal United are expected to conduct a mass overhaul to their squad this summer, selling underperforming, overpaid stars to raise funds for their transfer kitty.SunSport understands that the priority is an attacking midfielder and an elite No.9, with Ipswich’s Liam Delap on the club’s radar.Sporting Lisbon’s Viktor Gyokeres is still an option, while it is understood United are ready to pay the £62.5m release clause for Wolves’ Matheus Cunha.Whoever United bring in, this will leave Hojlund in a difficult position, and Amorim is unlikely to fight his corner on this season’s showing.After the Bournemouth draw, asked about the player’s future, Amorim was interestingly vague: “We like our strikers. We are improving our strikers. We will see what happens next season.”United are ready to sell any first-team player that can demand a hefty fee, especially if they fail to win the Europa League to qualify for the Champions League.And Hojlund is no exception, with clubs back in Italy showing an interest in a player that is still young and with a lot of potential.Read More on The SunAs United legend Gary Neville explained on Sunday: “There will be a lot of clubs looking at the talent and where United haven’t got the best out of those players and thinking they can get a cheap deal on them.“With Hojlund, there is a player in there for a club in Europe somewhere.”Bruno Fernandes is Man Utd’s top scorer in the league this season More

      Man Utd in talks with Aston Villa over whether to recall Marcus Rashford earlier than expected despite £40m option

      Man Utd legend Jonny Evans and England striker among stars Wrexham could target after promotion to Championship

      by

      MANCHESTER UNITED star Jonny Evans is among Wrexham’s major targets as part of their Premier League push, according to reports.The Welsh club celebrated promotion to the Championship over the weekend after Leyton Orient beat Wycombe Wanderers.Jonny Evans fits the profile of stars Wrexham want to sign this summerCredit: GettyThe Welsh club celebrated promotion to the Championship at the weekendCredit: RexIt marked a record-breaking third successive promotion to make it to England’s second tier, just two years after the club owned by Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney was playing in the National League.However, the Hollywood duo have made no secret of their ambition to reach the Premier League, and have suitably bankrolled a number of lucrative deals to bring the club up the leagues so quickly.The Championship will represent arguably Wrexham’s toughest challenge yet, but a number of top flight players could become available to help them achieve their next goal.Manager Phil Parkinson said the club was “always planning” but admitted that while they have not spoken about anyone in particular they do have a profile of targets who are free agents.READ MORE IN FOOTBALLHe said: “We haven’t really spoken about anything. We’ve always got our eye on players who are free transfers and are going to be available.“I think it’s interesting because the jump in salaries is incredible, mind-blowing. Even coming up to this level, the jump to get players of Championship quality is expensive.“But obviously the next level, I don’t think people outside football quite realise. “They think players in League One must be multi-millionaires, but the drop-off from what people read in the press about Premier League players is huge.Most read in FootballBEST ONLINE CASINOS – TOP SITES IN THE UK“That is a challenge but what we’ve always tried to do is make sure the culture in the club is right. “No superstars, no egos in the dressing room, and we’ve got to try to get that balance right again, to make sure the right people come into the building.”Danny Devito celebrates Wrexham’s last-gasp win over Barnsley as he watches from virtual stadium in LAPremier League internationals over the age of 30 who are out of contract this summer could be ideal candidates to bolster the squad with a combination of quality, experience and attainability.The likes of Man Utd’s Jonny Evans, Newcastle’s Callum Wilson, Everton’s Michael Keane, Leicester’s Jamie Vardy or even Manchester City’s Kevin De Bruyne all fit this category.While some of these names may seem far fetched, Wrexham accounts show a remarkable robustness, making the possibility of making one of these signings more realistic.Club accounts going up to June 2024 covering their season in League Two show revenues of £26.7million – which is a figure greater than seven Championship clubs including ex-Prem champions Blackburn -with the average revenue for a club not receiving parachute payments said to land at around the £22m mark.Sponsorship for that season had risen to £13.1m from £1.8m thanks to deals with United Airlines and Stok coffee.That figure is likely to rise when the next set of accounts emerge and detail their League One books, while there will almost certainly be a new season of Disney+ documentary “Welcome to Wrexham”.The latest series of the show will Premiere on May 16, with industry experts calculating every episode to be worth £300,000 to Reynolds and McElhenney’s production company.Wrexham also have the third-highest payroll in League One at an estimated total salary of £10.7m this season, all while operating at a reported loss of £2.7m and a £15m loan repayment to Reynolds and McElhenney.The Times report that sum comes from new minority owners, the billionaire Allyn family, who have a background in medical devices and are described as the driving force behind the club’s Premier League push.Speaking about the challenge of the next level, six-time promotion winner Parkinson said: “I think everybody knows the jump is huge. “I remember when I took Bolton up [in 2016-17], it was, ‘Phew! This is huge!’ in terms of the physicality and power in the division.Read More on The Sun“But I’m confident we will be well prepared for that.
