    The former midfielder has already endeared himself with the Shelbourne faithful after leading the team to the FAI Cup Final last year.
    The 44-year-old tactician’s stock rose even higher after Friday’s stunning League of Ireland Premier Division clash with St Patrick’s Athletic.
    Shelbourne saw the visitors open the scoring through Joe Redmond after only 20 minutes at Tolka Park, which has a capacity of just over 4,000.
    However, Duff led the hosts to a magnificent late comeback, which was boosted by John-Alan McGrath’s dismissal for St Patrick on 65 minutes.

    Shelbourne equalised in the 80th minute with Euclides Cabral and turned the game on its head with Paddy Barrett 10 minutes later.
    After the game, an ecstatic Duff approached the fiery home crowd and took a page out of Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp’s book as he emulated the German gaffer’s signature post-match celebration.
    The ex-Newcastle star punched the air four times with the fans loudly cheering each gesture.
    Supporters watching from home also found themselves on cloud nine as they took to social media to join in on all the fun.

    One tweeted: “Damien Duff, Shelbourne boss, absolutely giving it some.”
    Another commented: “Ahh I see he went to the Klopp school of crowd hyping.”
    A third posted: “Damien Duff! Doesnt [sic] matter what you’ve done in the game… Titles, multi million pound moves…we are all just fans. Wholesome stuff from the tricky winger. Haha.”
    This fan said: “Love that.”
    And that one stated: “Go on Duffers!!”
    Duff joined Chelsea in 2003 following a stunning seven-year stint at Blackburn.
    The former Republic of Ireland international shone bright at Stamford Bridge as he amassed a total of 19 goals and 29 assists in 125 appearances.
    The ex-Fulham star spent three years with the Blues and also won two Premier League titles as well as the 2005 League Cup.
    Duff also learned from one of the best managers as he spent two years playing under Jose Mourinho.

      His identity, like that of all prospective housemates, remains a mystery.
      But it is reported he is in his 20s and is not a native of Ireland.
      It’s also believed that his club won’t comment on his participation until he makes his villa bow.
      The first episode of the latest series of the high-profile dating programme aired on Monday night.

      It proved to be the show’s most dramatic launch yet as two couples opted to split on night one.
      Host Maya Jama made a shock re-appearance in the Majorcan villa to drop a bombshell that shook the singletons to their core.
      Despite only having had a few hours to connect, Maya was already offering a way out to some of the girls who did not feel they were in the right romantic pairing.
      Maya asked them to step forward if they did not feel entirely happy in their newly formed couples.

      In a shock move, Ruchee Gurang, 24, and Jess Harding, 22, decided to walk away from their pairs – causing shockwaves and one boy on the brink of tears.
      It led to the ending of Ruchee and Mehdi and Jess and George.
      Whilst Mehdi insisted he was expecting the pairing to come to an end due to a lack of connection, it appeared that George, 24, was left stunned by Jess’ decision.
      CAT’S OUT OF THE BAG
      The Bedford based lad appeared to let the tears flow as a tear could be seen rolling down his cheek after busty Jess decided to take a chance on the show’s new bombshell entry.
      In a bid to shake-up the couples, Zachariah Noble, 25, arrived in a bid to turn the heads of the ladies.
      Ahead of stepping foot into the villa, Zachariah confessed he was sad to be leaving his ‘son’ behind.
      The 25-year-old hunk spilled the beans on being a ‘dad’ as he prepared to stir up the drama on the ITV2 show.
      Zachariah’s ‘son’ is actually his beloved pet cat Frank and he has told of his sadness at being parted from him – potentially for weeks. More

      And an additional forward could help the Red Devils over the line in their pursuit of a place in the top four.
      Inter Milan’s Edin Dzeko, 36, Burnley’s Wout Weghorst, 30, and AC Milan’s Olivier Giroud, 36, have all been linked with moves to Old Trafford.
      But how do they stack up compared with one another?

      How Dzeko, Giroud and Weghorst compare since the start of last season
      Dzeko and Weghorst have played almost the exact same number of matches – with just one between them at 53 and 54 – while Giroud has managed 44.
      Inter man Dzeko leads the way in the goalscoring charts with 20 as the other two are locked together on 16.
      Weghorst edges things when it comes to assists – the Burnley loanee registering eight compared with Dzeko’s seven and Giroud’s six.
      Dzeko has the best shot conversion rate and has also registered the most attempts at 125.

      But of those efforts, Weghorst has managed the most on target.
      Giroud comes third in most of the statistical comparisons and “chances created” is no different.
      The former Arsenal man has laid on 40 opportunities for his team-mates, with Dzeko on 51 and Weghorst 49.
      But Giroud’s most impressive numbers come in the air.
      While Weghorst has competed in the most aerial duels, Giroud has a win percentage of 64 compared to Weghorst’s 46 and Dzeko’s 54.
      Finally, when it comes to touches in their respective games, Weghorst has had 200 more than Dzeko in just one more match.
      Giroud has had a further 560 less, albeit in 10 fewer appearances.
      Man Utd currently sit fourth in the Premier League table, two points ahead of Tottenham in fifth but nine off leaders Arsenal.
      And if they are to close the gap, what are the chances of them turning to a former Gunner to help them do it? More

      A summer move for the Portuguese star – who has 12 months left of a two-year contract at United – was briefly considered at Stamford Bridge.
      However, after a discussion between boss Thomas Tuchel and American businessman Boehly, Chelsea have decided to end any potential approach.
      New Man United boss Erik ten Hag has reiterated that Ronaldo is not for sale and still in his plans despite the player’s pre-season no-show in Thailand due to “personal reasons”.
      But Ronaldo remains on the look-out for a new club after yet another rejection, with PSG and Bayern Munich also deciding against bringing in the veteran.

      A return to Serie A is still an option, while it is believed it is unlikely he will head back to his native Portugal.
      Ronaldo has also been linked with mega-money moves to clubs in the U.S. and Saudi Arabia.

      by

      City’s £100million record signing splashed out on a huge hotel suite in Sin City, complete with interior balcony for him and his pals to enjoy.
      SunSport exclusively revealed pictures of the ex-Aston Villa skipper partying into the early hours of the morning with a mystery brunette.
      And his boozy break has seen him revel in a pool party, where he was spotted wearing a bucket hat before shuffling bleary-eyed through the hotel lobby with a towel wrapped around him.
      Surprisingly, one Liverpool defender could be seen with Grealish and his mates before he reports back to back to pre-season training.

      And it’s none other than Scottish left-back Andy Robertson, who was in a joyous mood just a few feet away from Grealish in the pool.
      Robertson decided to head Stateside to ease the woe of missing out on his second Premier League title.
      Just a week after finishing second by a single point to City, Robertson played as the Reds lost to Real Madrid in the Champions League final.
      There was to be more heartache for the ex-Hull star after Scotland lost to Ukraine in their World Cup semi-final play-off.

      by

      Love Island new boy Aaron Simpson
      Simpson in action for Waterford
      Simpson is currently without a club but signed for Wolves in 2015 where he went out on loan with clubs such as Portsmouth, AFC Telford and Kilmarnock.
      In 2019 he made the move across the water, joining the Blues from Wolves on a permanent deal until the end of the season under manager Alan Reynolds.
      He made eight appearances for the club before moving to Dover Athletic later that year.
      Upon making the move to the RSC he said: “I’ve been training for the last two weeks so it’s great to get signed up now. I’ve enjoyed the training so far and I’m looking forward to playing some games now.

      “I’ve settled in really quickly and that’s made it all easier for me, and Alan Reynolds and the coaches have been great to me since I’ve come in.
      “I haven’t played much recently but I’ve been training really hard, first with Joe Gamble and I feel fit and everybody just wants to play games.
      “I was a bit sceptical coming over, of course, I’d never even been in Ireland, but once I got here and saw the professionalism of how things are run, the lads and the staff were great and I got a good vibe from it here and that’s why I wanted to stay.
      “Coming to Ireland, I wasn’t really too sure about what the standard would be and that but we’ve got great players here, a really good mixture with some really experienced guys and a lot of good young players too and I can’t wait to learn from the likes of Damien Delaney and I think we can do really well this season.”

      Simpson made his debut on the TV show on Monday night and says he’s happy to tell the boys he’s ready to ‘steal their girl’.
      He said: “I’m going to bring fun, good energy and positive vibes. I think a couple of the girls’ heads will be turning when I go in there.
      “I feel like with my personality I won’t [graft] behind your back. I’ll openly tell you I’m about to steal your girl. That doesn’t really phase me at all. As long as I’m not doing anything snakey or behind your back, I don’t really see the problem.”
      However Simpson drew criticism from Love Island fans after he told Chloe she was ‘past her prime’ after being set up on a date with her.

      Another added: “Aaron said Chloe is past her prime and she still wants to get to know him???”

      Paul Pogba ‘to make decision on Man Utd stay or PSG transfer in next few days’

      by

      PAUL POGBA is set to decide on his Old Trafford future with the France star entering the final year of his Red Devils contract, according to reports. Speculation concerning the Manchester United ace’s club career has been rife in recent months.

      And French outlet TF1 via Get French Football claims the midfielder is due to make a choice on whether to remain in Manchester or seek a potential Paris Saint-Germain move.
      Pogba, 28, was part of the Le Bleus side who suffered a surprise Euros last 16 loss on penalties to Switzerland. 
      The player, who helped steer Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side to a Europa League final last term, is currently taking a well-earned break in Miami, USA

      ⚽ ENGLAND vs ITALY EURO 2020 FINAL BETTING SPECIAL ⚽

      His Florida holiday follows a string of impressive performances for club and country from 2020 to 2021.
      The Paris-born star played in 42 games across all competitions for United last term.
      And the former Juventus ace was one of the standout stars for France in the Euros, netting one goal and providing one assist.
      The current Man United deal for Pogba, who helped his country win the World Cup in 2018, is due to expire in June 2022. 
      And it is feared the player could end up leaving the club for nothing for the second time in nine years following the expiration of his contract.
      The player, who began his career in England as a Red Devils Under-18 starlet in 2009, left the club in 2012 at 19 for a sensational Juventus switch.

      The Prem star proved to be a hit in Serie A winning four league titles and two Player of the Year gongs during a four-season spell. 
      And he would return to United in 2016 for a club-record fee of around £89million to £90m. 
      Reports by French publication RMC claim PSG are confident of sealing a move for Pogba this summer.

      It is thought the Red Devils may be forced to cash in on their midfield star this year rather than risk losing him for nothing next summer. 
      And reports suggest the club are hoping to receive a decent fee for the player should he leave Old Trafford
      However, it is thought they may be unlikely to recoup the full figure they paid to bring the midfielder back to Manchester in 2016.

      But owner Roman Abramovich is ready to back Thomas Tuchel in the summer transfer market in order to turn his club back into Premier League title challengers.
      The German has dramatically improved Chelsea’s defensive record since taking charge in January but it’s in attack he wants to add more options.
      Midfielder Jorginho is their top-scorer in the top-flight this term with seven goals.
      And that measly stat has convinced Tuchel that he must prioritise signing a striker when the window re-opens next month.
      Tottenham star Harry Kane and Borussia Dortmund’s Erling Haaland are both on his wishlist.
      However, according to The Sunday World, Abramovich is ‘eager’ to lure Lukaku back to west London from Inter Milan as he is one of his ‘favourite strikers’, 
      The Belgian international spent three years at Stamford Bridge but was shipped out on-loan after barely featuring under Jose Mourinho, eventually leaving to join Everton in 2014.
      The ex-Manchester United ace has just helped Inter Milan win the Serie A title but now his club have been thrown into turmoil following Antonio Conte’s departure.

      The Italian quit his job as boss due to Inter’s plans to sell around £65m worth of talent.
      Now it looks like Chelsea will try to capitalise on that and bring Lukaku back.
      And they are allegedly ready to raise the funds to do that by offloading a number of big names.
      Today’s report states the sales of Kepa Arrizabalaga, Callum Hudson-Odoi, Ross Barkley, Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Abraham will ‘likely to raise a healthy sum that will all be ploughed back into Tuchel’s transfer kitty’ this summer.

      Abraham’s future remains up-in-the-air after he was not even named on the bench as the Blues lost the FA Cup Final 1-0 to Leicester at Wembley.
      That is despite him still being Chelsea’s joint-leading scorer in all competitions this season with 12 even though he has barely featured in Tuchel.
      Kepa was dropped earlier this year and the club would seem happy to recoup as much money back as possible on the Spaniard.
      Loftus-Cheek has spent the past season on-loan at Fulham while Barkley was with Aston Villa on a similar deal.
