      Chelsea all but confirm £97m Mykhailo Mudryk transfer with bizarre Instagram hint after gazumping Arsenal

      by

      CHELSEA can’t contain their glee over beating Arsenal to £97million Mykhail Mudryko – judging by their odd behaviour on Instagram.The Blues are already following the Shakhtar Donetsk winger and urged fans to “show him some love” – even though his arrival is not yet official.
      Chelsea’s Instagram post about Mudryk appeared brazen
      Chelsea gave a massive nod to suggest they’ve won the race for Mykhailo Mudryk by adding his handle to their bio
      Arsenal thought they had the Ukraine international in the bag but were hoping his club would reduce their sky-high demands.
      Mudryk, 22, had even regularly teased a moved to the Emirates himself on social media.
      But Chelsea gazumped them at the last minute with a stunning £97million offer to take their jaw-dropping January spending past £150m.
      And they were quick to rub it in to their London rivals, by adding the winger’s Instagram handle to their official page’s bio – even though the deal is not yet official.

      They then urged fans to get involved as they posted a picture of their incoming star roaring with delight, alongside the words: “Drop @mmudryk10 a message to show some love!”
      That plea, though, sparked a hostile reaction from many followers.
      One replied: “Chelsea is embarrassing right now, We all know he wants to go to Arsenal we’re even putting him on our bio trying to get him to sign w/us is absolutely low.
      “If you don’t want to join us we must not sign you no matter the talent. this is not the Chelsea I know.”

      Another said: “This club ruins young talent like no other.”
      A third fan was even more brutal: “Feel bad for him. He deserves better than coming here and lose every week.”
      And how about this for pessimism? “I wish you the best of luck with no European football next season. Yet another career ruined. Come on you Blues.”
      But of course some supporters did rally round as they anticipate soon watching one of Europe’s most exciting talents.
      One wrote: “Admin on fire tonight . We are Chelsea Football Club.”
      Mudryk is said to have accepted a seven-and-a-half year contract at Stamford Bridge, despite previously stating his preference was Arsenal.
      The Gunners agreed personal terms but are understood to have bowed out of the bidding war after having two offers rejected.
      It means Mudryk will follow in £35m centre-back Benoit Badiashile, £10m striker David Datro Fofana and wideman Joao Felix, whose half-season loan from Atletico Madrid is also costing the Blues £10m. More

      Ex-England star Jermain Defoe is ‘dating Love Island wannabe just weeks after collapse of his marriage’

      by

      FORMER footballer Jermain Defoe is dating a Love Island wannabe weeks after his marriage collapsed, it has been reported. The ex England star, 40, has been secretly seeing influencer Alisha LeMay, 31, who was tipped for the ITV dating show in 2019.

      Defoe was pictured without his wedding ring while on holiday in St Lucia
      And he was pictured leaving her home in Harlow, Essex, on Thursday morning. Alisha went to the front door in her brown dressing gown as he left.
      Meanwhile, Defoe wore a blue puffer jacket over a hooded top, designer ripped jeans and black trainers. He also had a Stetson hat and moustache.
      He climbed into his Range Rover before driving away as Alisha waved him off smiling.
      She then walked to her Land Rover Defender to pick up a bag from posh Selfridges, where she used to work as a personal shopper.

      TV football pundit Defoe was back again in the evening and drove off again the following morning.
      Sources told the MailOnline he had been a “regular visitor” in the past few weeks. They have also been seen in a nearby cafe.
      Alisha has posted glamorous photos from exotic locations including Jamaica, Ibiza, Paris and Capri in Italy on her social media.
      When she was rumoured to be on Winter’s Love Island, a source said: “Alisha is exactly the type of contestant ITV2 is looking for – she’s gorgeous, body confident and isn’t afraid to be herself.
      Most read in Football
      “She already works as an influencer and has collaborated with brands like PrettyLittleThing, Missguided and ASOS.
      “She’s an advocate of body positivity and often admits on her Instagram to never wanting to be perfect, which is an important message to young viewers of the show.”
      Last month Defoe sparked fears his marriage was in trouble after spending Christmas in the Caribbean while wife Donna stayed at home in Glasgow.
      The former Spurs and West Ham star, 40, was pictured without his wedding ring while Donna, also 40, has reverted to her maiden name of Tierney on social media and has unfollowed her hubby.
      Neither of them has posted about each other on social media for eight weeks.
      Both have removed Instagram images of the OK! magazine cover that featured their £200,000 wedding last June.
      The Sun on Sunday revealed Defoe had begged a nurse for sex just a month after getting married.
      A source said: “The marriage seems to be in trouble. You would think they would want to spend their first Christmas together as husband and wife but they haven’t so things aren’t looking at all good.”
      Defoe and Donna married at stately home Cliveden House, in Berkshire, in June last year.
      The lavish bash featured across 14 pages as well as the cover of OK! magazine later that month.
      But the £20,000 wedding has caused a riddle about whether it actually happened.
      The local register office has no record of him and his “bride” Donna Tierney legally getting married at the country house venue, which it normally would do.
      There is also no record of any marriage in Glasgow where they were living at the time on June 4 last year.
      A source said: “It’s all a mystery. They didn’t let the mag have their reporter and photographer at the wedding at Cliveden House.
      “Instead, they had their own photographer and sent them the pictures, and then subsequently gave an interview to a reporter.

      “But no one is aware of them actually getting married and there were no pictures in the magazine of anyone marrying them.”
      When The Sun approached Donna — who has removed the pics from her social media — and asked if they actually got wed, she said: “Of course we did. I’ve heard these rumours, I don’t know where they’ve come from.”

      Arsenal star Oleksandr Zinchenko ‘received letter from FA warning him for over-celebrating’ when he wasn’t even playing

      by

      FA CHIEFS “warned” Oleksandr Zinchenko for over-celebrating… when the Arsenal hero was out injured!The summer signing leapt from the bench to join team-mates rejoicing Gabriel’s late comeback winner at home to Fulham in August.

      And The Telegraph say the FA sent him a letter telling him he could be considered a “pitch invader” as he was not in the match-day squad.
      The Ukraine left-back has become an instant favourite with fans of the Premier League leaders after moving from champions Manchester City.
      And although he was unfit at the time, he leapt from the sidelines to roar his delight when Gabriel smashed home from a corner to seal a 2-1 victory over the Cottagers.
      Zinchenko ran down the touchline to share celebrations with Arsenal players by the corner flag.

      And he gestured to fans with his hands to urge them to help see the Gunners home in the dying minutes.
      His joy was amplified by sharing Gabriel’s relief – as the Brazilian centre-back had been devastated when he blundered to gift Fulham’s opener to Aleksandar Mitrovic.
      But Martin Odegaard fired a deflected equaliser and Gabriel was mobbed by team-mates after he pounced for the clincher.
      Zinchenko has since put his injury niggles well behind him to emerge as an outstanding success for Mikel Arteta’s exciting side.

      Kai Havertz pleads for ‘togetherness’ in Instagram post amid Chelsea’s worst slump in 12 years – but it backfires

      by

      KAI HAVERTZ’S Instagram plea for “togetherness” amid Chelsea’s worst run for 12 years backfired as fans piled on abuse.Angry supporters and trolls targeted the attacker after he insisted Blues’ players were as “frustrated as fans”.

      Havertz played the whole game as Fulham’s 2-1 win on Thursday left Chelsea with just one victory in nine Premier League games.
      Joao Felix ruined his impressive debut with a red card that turned the game against the Blues and earned the loanee a three-game ban.
      And Havertz tried to soothe growing unease from Chelsea followers by going online to ask for unity at a difficult time.
      The Germany star, 23, posted: “Tough times call for togetherness.

      “We’re as frustrated as all the fans with the way things are going at the moment.
      “We’ll continue to work on ourselves and improve with everyday! COYB.”
      But although some supporters responded positively, many replied scathingly, including with strong criticism of Havertz himself.
      One wrote: “You can continue to work on yourself, but not at Chelsea.”

      Another said: “You better step up, my guy. I had so much expectations from you for this season.”
      Far more brutal was this: “You’re a terrible footballer, just leave my club.”
      And just as harsh: “You’re useless. Stop typing messages like this.”
      Perhaps tellingly, this message attracted hundreds of likes: “Same tweet every week, man.”
      A few posts, however, were SLIGHTLY more constructive.
      One read: “Give accurate passes mate it’s getting disgraceful.”
      And even more bluntly: “Go to Bayern, please.”
      One observer urged Havertz: “Please watch the video and raise your game. I think you can do it. ”

      There were, though, supporters who took Havertz’s post in the rallying way he surely intended – as boss Graham Potter battles to save his job.
      This message summed those up: “Please keep fighting!!!! I’m really struggling, like most fans, at the moment!” More
