      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.”

      Fans all saying same thing as Macclesfield allow star Tom Clare to join Love Island with Robbie Savage slammed

      by

      Love Island’s Twitter account posted his introduction video, with the caption, “Footballer Tom is ready to tackle the boys to get the girl of his dreams.”
      And even Macclesfield director of football Robbie Savage has backed the move, calling Clare “Mr Love Island”.
      The non-league club said in a statement: “Macclesfield FC can confirm that the Club have granted Tom Clare an extended period of leave in order to appear in this year’s Love Island competition.
      “Tom approached us with the request a number of weeks ago and we were happy to show the same loyalty that he has to us since becoming one of our first-ever signings back in 2021.

      “Despite the fact that we are disappointed to lose a player of Tom’s calibre for the foreseeable future, we also recognise the incredible opportunity that this represents for both him and his family on a personal level.
      “Tom remains very much part of our plans here at the Leasing.com Stadium and has expressed his unwavering desire to return to the Club after the show.
      “We wish Tom every success and look forward to welcoming him back to the Club in due course.”
      The move caused uproar online and so did Savage’s support of it.

      One said: “Absolutely embarrassing that you’re supporting this Robbie, the reality of football these days and the reality of men! F***king shit show.”
      Another added: “Football slips slowly further into the gutter… how is that commitment to your team asking for time out to go on a questionable reality show. Macclesfield fans should be fuming.”
      Clark becomes the latest footballer to join the show.
      Jamie Allen, 27, who played for Halifax and ex-Coventry City Under-18 player Reece Ford, 23, both starred.
      And so did Finn Tapp, 23, the former MK Dons academy star who won Love Island with partner Paige Turley.

      Thanks for joining me!
      At one stage it looked as if the conditions might be right for a famous giant killing but in the end Arsenal flexed their Premier League muscles and took control of the contest after the hour mark.
      The Gunners scored three goals in 13 second half minutes to take the game away from their League One opponents.  
      Before then, Oxford had caused Arsenal all sorts of problems, especially during the first half, by not allowing them any time on the ball and with a bit of quality up front they could have hurt their opponents.
      Next up for the U’s is a trip to Lancashire to face a Fleetwood Town side who are separated from them by goal difference alone.
      Arsenal progress into the fourth round where they will face Manchester City at the Etihad towards the end of January.
      For now though, the Gunners turn their attention to a North London showdown with Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday in a game where a victory for either side will put a big dent in their opponent’s season.   
      Following that, Mikel Arteta’s team will host the Premier League’s most in-form team, Manchester United.
      We will certainly learn a lot about this Arsenal team over the next few weeks.
      Until then all that’s left for me to say is thanks for joining me and I look forward to speaking to you next time!
      Karl Robinson
      The Oxford United head coach is feeling positive about what lies ahead for his team this season.
      We lost control of the game in the second half but my players did the football club proud.We do have good players and when we have our strongest team available we are exciting to watch. Karl Robinson ITV
      Impressive Oxford
      Karl Robinson’s side were impressive and certainly frustrated Arsenal, at least until the hour mark.
      In the end they just didn’t have the sort of quality in attacking areas that the Gunners were able to call upon.
      Oxford’s attention will now turn back to their league form where they need to find some consistency in results and performances.
      Arsenal fixtures
      Arsenal’s next five fixtures will go some way to proving whether they are good enough to be competing for the big honours come the end of the season.
      Mikel Arteta’s side face off against their North London rivals Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday before games against Manchester United, Everton, Brentford and Manchester City.
      How they fare in those games will go some way to defining their season.

      Nketiah quotes
      Eddie Nketiah has been speaking to the media about his recent run of games after his two goals helped Arsenal progress into the next round.
      We knew it wasn’t going to be easy and we had to stay patient. Obviously every player wants to play and I just want to keep improving.Eddie NketiahITV
      Eddie Nketiah
      The Arsenal forward was handed a big new contract at the end of last season and he is starting to prove that it was money well spent for the North London club.
      While he would like to be considered as more than a back up, he has allowed Arsenal to navigate the absence of Gabriel Jesus without missing a beat.
      He scored two high quality goals tonight and will be full of confidence as a result.
      Match stats
      Arsenal run out as deserved winners in the end.

      Full Time: Oxford 0 – 3 Arsenal
      It’s all over at the Kassam Stadium.
      Arsenal go into the fourth round where they will face Manchester City at the Etihad.
      Stay with us for the post match reaction!
      Oxford 0 – 3 Arsenal
      90+1, Arsenal are just sitting off their opponents for the remaining couple of minutes.
      They know the job is done.
      Oxford 0 – 3 Arsenal
      90, Referee David Coote has decided that we’re going to play an additional two minutes here.
      Oxford 0 – 3 Arsenal
      87, The changes seem to have made all the difference for Arsenal here.
      They’ve been in total control of this match ever since Zinchenko and Xhaka entered the fray.
      Oxford 0 – 3 Arsenal
      85, Yet more bookkeeping for you!
      Johnson and Fleming are on for Oxford in place of McGuane and Brown.
      Phew! Everyone stay where they are for a few minutes please.
      Oxford 0 – 3 Arsenal
      81, Arteta makes another two changes.
      Ben White and Marquinhos have ben introduced as Tomiyasu and Fabio Vieira make way.
      Oxford 0 – 3 Arsenal
      80, A sign of rustiness on Emile Smith Rowe’s part perhaps as he wastes a good opportunity to score the Gunners’ fourth.
      Martinelli’s square ball finds him in acres of space inside the Oxford penalty area but his first touch lets him down and his shot eventually deflects wide for a corner.
      Oxford 0 – 3 Arsenal
      77, Karl Robinson makes two changes immediately after Arsenal score their third.
      Taylor and Bodin are off.
      Goodrham and O’Donkor are on.
      GOAL! Oxford 0 – 3 Arsenal
      76, Fantastic finish from Nektiah!
      The Arsenal forward is played in by Gabriel Martinelli but the finish from Nketiah is so cute.
      Nketiah just lifts the ball over the goalkeeper on the angle.
      Will he get his hat trick?

      Oxford 0 – 2 Arsenal
      74, Saka is down and receiving treatment from the Arsenal medical team.
      The Arsenal winger looks in some discomfort.
      Arteta is taking no chances and replaces him with Emile Smith-Rowe who comes on to make his first appearance in almost three months.
      GOAL! Oxford 0 – 2 Arsenal
      70, Nketiah doubles Arsenal’s lead!
      Oxford give the ball away cheaply in midfield and Vieira cleverly plays Nketiah in one-on-one with McGinty.
      The Arsenal forward touches the ball around the goalkeeper as he comes off his line and rolls the ball into the empty net.
      Game over for Oxford, surely?

      Oxford 0 – 1 Arsenal
      67, It looks an uphill battle for the home team now.
      But if Oxford can keep it to just one then they’ll fancy they can work one goalscoring opportunity for themselves before the full time whistle.
      GOAL! Oxford 0 – 1 Arsenal
      63, Elneny breaks the deadlock for the Gunners!
      A wicked delivery from a Fabio Vieira free-kick finds the unmarked Egyptian around five yards from goal.
      Elneny makes no mistake with his header as he directs it into the bottom corner, but to be honest he couldn’t really miss.

      Oxford 0 – 0 Arsenal
      60, Arteta makes two changes to his team as Xhaka and Zinchenko are introduced at the expense of Lokonga and Tierney.
      Karl Robinson also makes a change as Yanic-Sonny Wildschut comes on for Josh Murphy.
      Oxford 0 – 0 Arsenal
      58, A dangerous looking ball into the Arsenal box from Ciaron Brown looks like it’s going to drop right on the head of his teammate Sam Long but Gabriel just gets his head in there before the Oxford defender.
      Arteta has sent the Arsenal subs out to warm up.
      Oxford 0 – 0 Arsenal
      56, A corner kick for Arsenal from the far side almost finds its way straight into the Oxford goal.
      McGinty forces his way through a couple of Arsenal players to punch the ball away.
      Pressure building…

      Oxford 0 – 0 Arsenal
      54, Nketiah is making some good runs in behind the Oxford defence but none of his teammates have seen them.
      Tierney the guilty party this time.
      Oxford 0 – 0 Arsenal
      53, Whatever Mikel Arteta said to his team during the half time break, it hasn’t had the desired effect.
      The second half has taken on exactly the same pattern as the first 45.

      ITV pundit Keane, 51, showed off a new look ahead of the game.
      The Old Trafford icon sported a bushy moustache, having shaved off his legendary beard for the World Cup final last month.
      On that occasion Keane had an impressive moustache complete with a soul patch under his bottom lip.
      Now though Keane has shaved off the soul patch, but kept the moustache.

      While has array of facial hair is impressive, fans have been left crying out for Keane to bring back his iconic beard.
      One joked on social media: “Roy Keane looks different every time he’s on TV. Are Interpol after him or summat!?”
      Another added: “Someone please tell Roy Keane that tash is criminal. Grow that beard back NOW.”
      A third quipped: “Please lose the caterpillar under your nose. Beard yes, but muzzy = No.”

      And a fourth declared: “What the hell is that on Roy Keane’s face. Bring the beard back.”
      On the pitch Antony put the Red Devils ahead early on after poking home a Marcus Rashford cross.
      But Erik ten Hag’s side weren’t ahead for long.
      A howler from David De Gea allowed Conor Coady to stab into the back of the net from close range.
      Coady himself then scored an own goal that saw United retake the lead, before Rashford sealed the win in injury time from the spot. More
