      Who is Pep Guardiola’s daughter Maria and is she dating Dele Alli?

      by

      PEP GUARDIOLA’S daughter Maria has again been spotted stepping out with Spurs star Dele Alli.Spanish style icon Maria, 20, was lucky to survive the devastating suicide bomb attack at the Ariana Grande concert in 2017. Here’s more about the Man City manager’s girl.
      Maria has become something of a style icon thanks to her impressive online following
      Who is Pep Guardiola’s daughter Maria?
      Student Maria, who lives in London, has won an army of online fans – boasting 100,00 followers on Instagram.
      She is considered a Spanish style icon, with glamorous, happy snaps of her jetset lifestyle shared on social media.
      Maria is the eldest of Pep’s three children with businesswoman Cristina Serra.
      She is close to her brother Marius, 18, and sister Valentina, 13, and the family have repeatedly posed together publicly at Pep’s end-of-season trophy celebrations.
      The former Barcelona and Bayern Munich boss has proudly beamed in front of cameras with his arm around Maria.

      Is Maria dating Dele Alli?
      Dele and Maria were spotted leaving top restaurant Novikov in October 2021 – just months after pictures emerged of them kissing at a rooftop bar.
      It was back in May when Dele was pictured snogging the daughter of Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola.
      Fittingly for a player who has spent most of last season as a sub, he made his move on Maria as they sat together on a bench.
      It appeared that he had put his bitter split from model Ruby Mae, 23, behind him.
      He leaned in for a smooch after he and Maria chatted for hours at the capital’s trendy Cloud 9 bar.
      It is understood that Dele first met Maria in April.
      Dele Alli was spotted snogging Maria Guardiola
      An onlooker told The Sun: “Dele and Maria didn’t seem to have a care in the world.
      “They didn’t mind who saw them as they smooched in front of the DJ booth.
      “It was packed with hundreds of revellers watching on. All the tables had been booked and were completely full.
      “Strangers were wandering past and Dele and Maria didn’t blink an eye.
      “They were in a group together and it was very cosy. They looked so cute and could have been honeymooners.”
      Dele and Maria’s public smooch came last Sunday, May 9 — a day after Tottenham’s 3-1 Premier League defeat at Leeds United.
      A friend told The Sun: “Dele looked smitten and finally over being dumped by his long-term lover Ruby Mae.
      “Dele and Maria are young, free and single. Who knows where it will go from here?
      Maria has told pals about the rooftop encounter with Dele but says they are “just friends”.
      The Sun told how Ruby ended her relationship with Dele after growing tired of his behaviour — including spending hours playing online game Fortnite.
      She has shared repeated public posts with her followers alluding to her joy at finally being free from the footballer.
      A spokesman for Dele declined to comment.

      How many children does Pep Guardiola have?
      Pep Guardiola has three children – son Marius and daughters Maria and Valentina – with his wife Cristina Guardiola.
      The couple met in a shop and dated for 20 years before marrying in 2014 in Matadepera, after their children were born.
      The Sun reported in 2019 that Cristina returned to Spain to take care of her fashion company, taking one of their children, while the other two remained in England with Pep.
      Cristina had been commuting back to work from Manchester for the previous three years after the former Bayern Munich gaffer replaced Manuel Pellegrini in 2016.

      “Like her husband, Cristina has a passion for fashion, poetry and photography,” reports the Mirror.
      “Cristina Serra Guardiola is known as a style icon back in her homeland – although she shies away from the limelight and rarely gives interview,” it adds.
      In 2018, Pep opened up for the first time about his wife and daughters being caught up in the horrific Ariana Grande concert bombing in Manchester, insisting that he was a Mancunian for life.

      Salman Abedi killed 22 men, women and children when he blew himself up in a suicide bomb attack at the end of an Ariana Grande concert in May 2017.
      The Man City boss’ wife and two daughters were at the arena and he was left with several agonising minutes of being unable to make contact.
      Fortunately, Guardiola’s family were safe but he paid tribute to those who were not as lucky.
      He told BBC 5 Live: “When the attack happened, I was at home with my son, and my wife and daughters were there – they were at the arena.
      Maria, 20, is the daughter of Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola
      “She called me but the line broke immediately. She told me ‘something happened and we are running but I don’t know what happened’ and the line broke.
      “We tried to call her again and it didn’t work – we went to the arena and after five or six minutes she rang again and said: ‘We are out, we’re coming back home.’
      “At the end we were lucky. Many people suffered, and we were lucky. Life is like this. We were in a better position than many unfortunate ones.”

      Cristiano Ronaldo gains 96 MILLION Instagram followers this year beating Lionel Messi to top spot again

      by

      CRISTIANO RONALDO has gained a whopping 96million new Instagram followers so far this year.And that ranks him ahead of rival Lionel Messi in another category of their ongoing battle.
      Cristiano Ronaldo is the top dog when it comes to Instagram followers in sportCredit: Getty
      Seven of the top ten sports stars with the most new followers in 2021 are footballers
      Both Ronaldo and Messi made mega transfers this summer.
      The Portuguese legend returned to Manchester United while the Argentina hero left Barcelona for Paris Saint-Germain.
      And that saw both men pick up swathes of fans on social media.
      According to ManySpins.com figures, Ronaldo went from 250m on January 1, 2021 to now having 346m – an increase of 96m – and in the process became the first Instagram user to top 300m.
      Of those, 3m have come in the last month since his transfer back to Old Trafford.
      Messi, meanwhile, increased his Insta army from 175m to 267m, an extra 92m.

      However, more than 5m of those have come since his sensational free transfer to the Parc des Princes.
      Indian cricket icon Virat Kohli is third with an extra 70m up to 155m, followed by NBA superstar LeBron James is on 98m, with 23m of those coming in 2021.
      Messi’s PSG team-mates Neymar (16m) and Kylian Mbappe (12m) are next on the list.
      In seventh is 13-year-old Rayssa Leal, the Brazilian skateboarder who won a silver medal at the Tokyo Olympics.
      The 4ft 10ins sensation jumped from 542,000 followers to 6.8m, a rise of 6.3m.
      Completing the top ten are footballers Erling Haaland (6m), Sergio Ramos and Paul Pogba (both 5m).
      CANU BELIEVE IT
      Unsurprisingly, Emma Raducanu has the highest percentage increase of any sports star on Instagram in 2021.
      The new queen of tennis started the year at school studying for her A-Levels with 9,600 followers.
      Nine months later, she has reached the fourth round at Wimbledon and is a Grand Slam champion after winning the US Open as a qualifier.
      And that has led to more than 2m more followers on the British teenager’s Instagram – an increase of a bonkers 20,847 per cent.
      Raducanu beat Leylah Fernandez in the Flushing Meadows final and the Canadian 19-year-old is second on the list of percentage increase of followers.
      She has gone from 9,900 to 308,000 – just shy of a 3,000 per cent boost.
      Olympic stars Sunisa Lee, Leal, Marcell Jacobs, Sha’Carri Richardson and Rebeca Andrade fill slots three to seven followed by Euro 2020 heroes Federico Chiesa and Bukayo Saka.

      Jack Grealish’s girlfriend Sasha Attwood revealed she was sent 200 death threats a day during the Euros
      In a touching post Sasha Attwood said that she was “so proud” of midfielder Grealish, 25, and shared the Manchester City post confirming the news on her Instagram story.
      Model Sasha, 25, previously revealed that she had been getting 200 death threats a day from fans after their relationship became public during the Euros.
      The couple had historically kept their love life out of the public eye, and had not posted about each other on social media.
      But the model appears to have had a change of heart and has publicly shown her support for Grealish after his move to City was confirmed.
      Speaking about their relationship openly for the first time on her YouTube she said: “It’s not been a secret at all. It’s just something that I’ve not posted about.
      “I don’t post my relationship over social media like a lot of people don’t want to. There’s nothing wrong with that. 
      ‘STAY STRONG’
      “That’s a very big part of my life, but it’s not something that I want to splash all over social media.
      “It’s just something private and there’s nothing wrong with that you don’t have to post to prove anything.”
      Sasha has also been inundated with comments on her social media after opening up about her troll hell.
      Hundreds of people have wanted to show their support to the blonde stunner, telling her to “stay strong” and that she “didn’t deserve” any of the vile abuse she had been getting.
      She responded underneath her video thanking people, writing: “Thank you so much for all your kind comments it really means a lot💕💕💕 xxx”.
      Jack and Sasha were both snapped sneaking out of Pep Guardiola’s restaurant, Tast Cuina Catalana, in Manchester city centre last night.

      The pair were seen getting into at taxi at the rear of the tapas style restaurant to celebrate his mega move.
      The Three Lion’s ace also paid tribute to his 19 years with Villa, thanking them on social media and declaring “I loved every minute of it”.
      Grealish’s eye-watering transfer fee surpasses the £89m Manchester United spent on midfielder Paul Pogba in 2016.
      He is now the sixth most expensive footballer in history, behind only Neymar, Kylian Mbappe, Philippe Coutinho, Joao Felix and Antoine Griezmann.
      He signed a six-year contract with the club, saying: “I am incredibly happy to have joined Manchester City.
      “City are the best team in the country with a manager considered to be the best in the world – it’s a dream come true to be part of this club.

      “Over the past ten seasons, they have won major trophies consistently. Pep coming here has taken them to the next level and the football this team plays is the most exciting in Europe.
      “To play for Pep and learn from him is going to be special and it’s something any top footballer would want.
      “The facilities are amazing, and I honestly can’t wait to get started, meet everyone and get playing.”

      Facebook and Twitter FINALLY hand over details of racist trolls who abused England’s Euro 2020 stars with five arrested

      by

      FACEBOOK, Instagram and Twitter have finally handed over the details of racist trolls who abused England’s Euro 2020 stars.Five people have been arrested after heroes Marcus Rashford, Bukayo Saka and Jadon Sancho were targeted following England’s heartbreaking defeat.
      Social media giants have finally handed over the details of racist trolls after horrific abuse was levelled at Lions heroesCredit: Getty
      Social media giants had faced mounting pressure to give up the thugs posting abuse – after bosses were hauled before Boris Johnson for a dressing-down earlier this week.
      Chief Constable Mark Roberts, the National Police Chiefs’ Council football policing lead, said the companies are now “working very closely” with the UK Football Policing Unit (UKFPU) to track down the vile trolls.
      It comes as:

      Mr Roberts said: “The racial abuse aimed at our own players following Sunday night’s game is utterly vile and has quite rightly shocked and appalled people across the country.
      “Our England team have been true role models during the tournament, conducting themselves with professionalism and dignity.
      “I’m disgusted there are individuals out there who think it’s acceptable to direct such abhorrent abuse at them, or at anybody else.
      “The UKFPU investigation is well under way and work continues to identify those responsible.
      “We are working very closely with social media platforms, who are providing data we need to progress inquiries.
      “If we identify that you are behind this crime, we will track you down and you will face the serious consequences of your shameful actions.”
      A 42-year-old man from Runcorn is the fifth person to have been questioned, Cheshire Police confirmed on Thursday.
      The man was arrested on Wednesday on suspicion of displaying threatening, abusive or insulting written material. He has since been released under investigation pending further inquires.
      Saka in a statement on Thursday: “To the social media platforms Instagram, Twitter and Facebook, I don’t want any child or adult to have to receive the hateful and hurtful messages that me, Marcus and Jadon have received this week.
      “I knew instantly the kind of hate that I was about to receive and that is a sad reality that your powerful platforms are not doing enough to stop these messages.”
      Meanwhile, school meals hero Rashford said: “I can take critique of my performance all day long, my penalty wasn’t good enough, it should have gone in.
      “But I will never apologise for who I am and where I came from.”
      The UKFPU said that, as of Tuesday, 897 football-related incidents and 264 arrests had been recorded across the country in the 24-hour period surrounding the final.
      That took the number of football-related incidents during the tournament to 2,344, and arrests to 630.
      Asked about measures to tackle the issue following a speech in Coventry, the Prime Minister acknowledged the Government had “got to go further” than simply extending the scope of football banning orders to include online abuse.
      Banning orders exclude people from attending matches for between three and 10 years.
      One comedian has seen a string of shows cancelled after tweeting: “I’m sorry that black guys are bad at penalties.”
      And a Savills worker has been arrested racist abuse was sent from his Twitter account.
      A post from Andrew Bone’s Twitter account branded the players the N-word and claimed the England stars had “ruined it for us” after the loss.

      Bone’s family claimed to The Sun his account had been hacked.
      Children’s football coach Nick Scott, 50, initially said he had nothing to do with a vile tweet sent to Rashford.
      He later admitted he may have sent it while drunk – and told The Sun: “If I did, I want Marcus to know that I’m truly sorry and I apologise sincerely.”
