      It was the same night he was later pictured with a balloon in his mouth and laughing gas canisters, which led to concern being expressed about him in the football world.
      Our exclusive pictures show Dele, 27, hiding his face while on the bed with mates including recently-retired ex-Chelsea player Izzy Jay Brown, 26, and four young women after the trip to Chinawhite in Manchester.
      And we can reveal the ex-Spurs idol went clubbing twice in ten days in Turkey, where he was on loan to Besiktas from current club Everton.
      Sources claimed £110,000-a-week Dele, in a relationship with Sports Illustrated model Cindy Kimberly, 24, left Chinawhite with the girls — at least one of whom is said to work there — at 4am.

      They are thought to have headed to a flat in Salford, where they all posed for a selfie on a bed.
      Dele was snapped around 7am or 8am in a vest and the same cap as in our bedroom pic — with the balloon and the canisters of nitrous oxide, also known as laughing gas and hippy crack.
      Dele once England’s brightest footballing talent, returned to Everton for hip injury treatment after the failed loan in Turkey.
      A source said: “Dele was having a great time drinking with his mates at the club.

      “They had a booth and the girls were serving them. They went back to one of the girls’ apartments and partied on until morning.”
      One of the women is art student Niamh Saunders, 20, who shared the bed snap on Instagram.
      We can reveal Dele spent some of his final days at Besiktas partying in nightclubs until the early hours.
      The team played three matches in March but he was not involved and his manager said he went AWOL.
      Dele confirmed today his season is over as he shared a pic from his hospital bed on Instagram after hip surgery. He vowed to “focus fully on my recovery”.
      But he is suggested to have “forgotten how to play” while in Turkey.
      A fan there said: “It’s crazy to think what he is like now compared to a few years ago.”

      And it has now been confirmed by Voluntary Anti-Doping Association that both the heavyweight headliners passed their doping tests.
      Joshua’s promoter Eddie Hearn had hoped for an active 2023 for the two-time champion with as many as three bouts lined up.
      But AJ made the shock revelation on Instagram that he would not be back in the ring until the end of the year.

      He posted: “My next fight is scheduled for December. Not ideal but everything is part of a bigger picture.”
      Despite the shock announcement, Hearn’s Hall of Fame father Barry warned not to rule out a change of plan.
      He told Joe: “Firstly, I think there were a few misquotes about he’s not boxing until December. He’s thinking about not boxing until December.
      “I love Anthony but he’s on holiday at the moment, He’s having a good time. He spends his life in training camps.

      “When you’re having a good time, you like to carry on having a good time, but I know Anthony a bit better than that.
      “I won’t be a 100 per cent surprised to see a U-turn on that.”
      Joshua, 33, is currently enjoying time off in Dubai, before planning a trip back to Texas for more training under new coach Derrick James.
      It comes amid rumours of a fight against Deontay Wilder, 37, in December in Saudi Arabia.
      And Tyson Fury, 34, would also face Usyk, 36, with the winners of the two bouts meeting in a proposed tournament.
      It would tie into Joshua’s plan to wait till the end of the year to fight following his comeback victory against American Franklin, 29.

      But with many players hooked and struggling to cope, the Professional Footballers’ Association is investigating amid health fears — and the impact on kids who may copy their role models.
      Leicester striker Jamie Vardy, Man United centre back Victor Lindelof and Newcastle defender Emil Krafth have used snus for its supposed calming effect.
      Now the PFA has launched workshops highlighting the risks.
      We found some users are getting through 25 tea bag-style pouches — which are placed under the top lip — each day.

      A source said: “Many are now hooked as they don’t realise snus contains more addictive nicotine than a cigarette.
      “Club doctors fear usage is spiralling out of control.”
      Swedish-made snus is not illegal but can’t be sold in the UK due to cancer fears.
      Tubs are as little as £5 online.

      I’m UK’s most notorious football hooligan – but I went from fighting on terraces to bestselling author & cult movie icon

      by

      A MAN who was once one of the UK’s most notorious football hooligans turned his life around to become a bestselling author and cult movie star.Carlton Leach, 64, built up an infamous reputation for fighting on the terraces at West Ham in the 1980s and ’90s, but now leads a life far away from crime.
      Carlton has left the world of gangs and football hooliganism far behind himCredit: Twitter/Carlton Leach
      Carlton Leach gave up his criminal life in 1995 after his friends were killed in a drug-related shooting
      Leach, who was born in Canning Town, East London, got involved in crime at an early age, after joining the brutal Inter City Firm (ICF), who follow West Ham FC, known as the Hammers.
      The gang got its moniker from using InterCity trains to travel to away matches and start fights with the opposition’s fans.
      The ICF became notorious for leaving a business card on the bodies of those they attacked that read: “Congratulations, you’ve just met the ICF.”
      While he was a part of the gang, Leach met drug dealers Tony Tucker, Craig Rolfe, and Pat Tate.
      Read More on Football Hooligans
      The four men later became members of the notorious Essex Boys gang which sparked a savage drug war in the 1990s.
      Leach was one of Britain’s most feared faces during his 20-year career as a criminal.
      However, he decided to turn his back on a life of crime after three of his best friends and gang mates were murdered in a drug-related shooting.
      Tucker, Rolfe, and Tate were all shot during the 1995 Range Rover shooting.
      Most read in Football
      The three drug dealers were shot in their car on a small farm track in Rettendon, Essex.
      Leach started telling his story in the hope it would deter others from following in his criminal footsteps.
      In 2003, he wrote his first autobiography called “Muscle” about his experiences as a criminal.
      The ex-footie thug then wrote his second memoir in 2009, titled, “Rise of the Footsoldier: In My Game, the Choice Is a Jail or a Grave,” which detailed his stories of violence, gang crime, and the loss of his best friend.
      In October 2021, Leach released his final, bestselling autobiography, entitled, Carlton: The Final Say.
      The book details his early and criminal life, as well as the two most recent decades of his life since.
      His first memoir was turned into a film in 2007, entitled, Rise Of The Footsoldier by Bafta-award nominated director Julian Gilbey.
      It starred actor Ricci Harnett, who played Leach.

      The British crime and gangster film grossed £220,868 and had a second part made in 2015, that followed Leach in the aftermath of the Rettendon murders.
      The 64-year-old also inspired the 2015 film, Essex Boys: Law of Survival, which detailed the Essex boys gang and Range Rover murders of 1995.

      by

      KELL BROOK has raged at Amir Khan for his “disgusting” positive drugs test.Khan, 36, who retired after losing to Brook by stoppage last year, has been handed a two-year doping ban after the banned substance ostarine was found in his system following the loss.

      And Brook, 36, did not pull any punches in his assessment of his long-time rival.
      Speaking to iFL TV, he said: “I heard about it today, when everyone else heard.
      “I’m disgusted, it’s been over a year since we boxed, it makes me feel sick.
      “I’ve got three beautiful kids. He’s gone in there to try and hurt me. It’s a f***ing joke.”
      READ MORE IN BOXING
      Khan has claimed ingestion of the banned substance was not intentional.
      Ostarine is a drug designed to have similar effects to testosterone, used by athletes and bodybuilders to boost muscle mass and performance.
      However, it has also been used to treat muscle-wasting diseases and osteoporosis.
      The result of Khan’s fight against Brook has now been wiped out.
      Most read in Boxing
      His ban has been backdated to start immediately after the 2022 fight and will run until April 2024.
      Khan has broken his silence on the matter, telling Sky Sports: “I’ve never cheated.
      “I’m a retired fighter… you can see by my performance. My performance against Kell Brook wasn’t the best.
      “I lost the fight… if I’d gone in and knocked him out if would be different.
      “I’ve never cheated in my life… I was the one who wanted testing on the fight.
      “The amount that was in my system could have been from shaking hands.”
      Khan continued: “I didn’t know what the drug was in my system.
      “I’ve never cheated in my life… I’d never cheat.
      “Like I said, I am a retired fighter. I’ve got a two-year ban now which is quite strange and funny that they’ve banned me… I’m already retired anyway.”
      On a potential return to the ring, Khan added: “[I’ve got] no comeback plans at all.
      “But, like I said, I’ve never cheated and never will. That’s just not something I would do.”
      UK Anti-Doping (UKAD) earlier confirmed the news in a statement.
      It read: “Professional boxer and Olympic medallist Amir Khan has been banned from all sport for two years following Anti-Doping Rule Violations (ADRVs) for the presence and use of a Prohibited Substance.
      “On 19 February 2022, UK Anti-Doping (UKAD) collected an In-Competition urine Sample from Mr Khan after his fight against Kell Brook at the Manchester Arena.
      “Mr Khan’s Sample returned an Adverse Analytical Finding (AAF) for ostarine.
      “UKAD notified Mr Khan of the AAF on 6 April 2022 and that he may have committed ADRVs under the 2021 UK Anti-Doping Rules (ADR).
      “UKAD issued him with a Provisional Suspension from all Code-compliant sport on the same date.
      “On 20 July 2022, UKAD charged Mr Khan with the commission of two ADRVs: Presence of a Prohibited Substance and Use of a Prohibited Substance.
      “Mr Khan accepted the violations charged but maintained that his ingestion of ostarine was not ‘intentional’.”
      UKAD went on to reveal the case was referred to the National Anti-Doping Panel – with the charges upheld.
      The statement continued: “As a consequence his case was referred to the National Anti-Doping Panel to be considered by an independent tribunal.
      “Mr Khan’s case was heard by the independent tribunal on 24 January 2023 and in its written decision dated 21 February 2023, the panel found both violations proved, concluded that Mr Khan had established that they were not ‘intentional’ within the meaning of ADR Article 10.2.3 and imposed a two-year ban on him.
      “The panel also disqualified Mr Khan’s result from the bout against Mr Brook.
      “Mr Khan’s two-year ban is deemed to have commenced on 6 April 2022 (the date his Provisional Suspension was imposed) and will expire on 5 April 2024.”
      In the weeks leading up to the Brook fight, Khan revealed he was yet to be drug-tested and that he was chasing officials to get it done.
      He called the whole experience “a bit strange” as he was desperate for a “fair fight”.
      Khan retired in 2022 with a record of 34-6 following defeat to Brook, bringing down the curtain on an illustrious career.

      The Bolton star was catapulted into the spotlight after bagging silver at the Athens Olympic Games in 2004.
      Khan won his first 18 fights but lost the biggest fights of his career against the likes of Canelo Alvarez, Terence Crawford and Brook. More

      CARDIFF City star Connor Wickham is seen appearing to inhale “hippy crack” laughing gas after his side’s defeat to rivals Swansea on Saturday.The clip, posted on his Instagram, seems to show Wickham breathing in with a balloon to his mouth – a known method of taking the drug, just hours after his team’s 3-2 home defeat.
      Cardiff City star Connor Wickham posted a video that seemed to show him taking laughing gas

      The since-deleted footage sparked criticism from fans as the ace, who turned 30 the previous day, could be seen with a group of people singing and dancing in a car.
      Wickham himself has responded to the controversy, with a statement posted to social media.
      He wrote: “I’m obviously aware of a video circulating on social media. I know my responsibility as a professional.
      “Playing for Cardiff City is a huge privilege, I’ve been so welcomed by you all and I will always give 100%.

      “To lose the game the way we did yesterday hurt more than ever, even though you will feel it doesn’t seem that way to me.”
      Wickham came on as a substitute in the match before Swansea won the South Wales derby to a 99th minute stunner from Ben Cabango.
      The under-fire striker added: “I hope you can all understand and I will do my best [to] help my team and this club to achieve the best possible outcome this season.”
      A spokesperson for Cardiff City told Wales Online that the club was “looking into” the video.

      It comes less than a week after the Government announced plans to make possession of nitrous oxide, better known as laughing gas, illegal.
      The previously legal high can be highly dangerous if abused.
      Taking too much can cause nerve damage, heart issues and even death as users can slip into unconsciousness and asphyxiate.
      It comes after fellow footballer Brandon Williams, who plays for Premier League side Manchester United, was seemingly caught puffing the same gas.
      The £60,000-a-week full back was snapped inhaling from a balloon while sitting as a passenger in a Brabus supercar near the club’s training ground.
      A witness told the Sun: “It was so obvious to anyone driving by what he was doing.
      “Anyone who follows United or football seriously would have recognised him instantly.
      “It’s irresponsible considering he’s a public figure.

      Iron Mike even came up with his own strain of weed, which he regularly smokes.
      And the marijuana mogul has branched out by opening a coffee shop in Amsterdam, where the sale and consumption of small amounts of weed is permitted in licensed premises.
      Coffeeshop Tyson 2.0, which is close to the famous Red Light district, officially opened its doors last Friday.
      And being the diligent owner that he is, Tyson has tried all the products available in the shop.

      Visitors to Tyson’s cafe will be able to puff away as they please as recreational cannabis use in coffee shops has been legal in the Netherlands since 1976.
      But they won’t be able to take their purchases to the Red Light district as outdoor marijuana use will become illegal in May. More
