      We had 5 hours of hell as Siena had life-saving op…but she’s fixed now. She’s our heart warrior, says Jack Wilshere

      by

      FORMER Arsenal and England star Jack Wilshere suffered “five hours of hell” as his five-year-old daughter Siena had life-saving cardiac surgery.And he said he had been “100 per cent” sure she would die during the operation to fix a hole in her heart in February.Retired football star Jack Wilshere suffered ‘five hours of hell’ as his five-year-old daughter Siena had life-saving cardiac surgery, pictured with wife Andriani, leftCredit: Eleven Miles.Siena had a rare kind of heart issue which required swift actionCredit: Eleven Miles.Jack, 32, also recalled how he and his wife Andriani spent 45 minutes crying as they were gripped by the fear of losing her.Only a month earlier, doctors had told the father-of-four that Siena — his second-youngest child — had the heart condition.While it can be fatal, it often does not need surgery — but Siena had a rare kind which required swift action.Arsenal ace Jack, who played 34 times for his country, told The Sun how he lost almost a stone due to stress during the month between her diagnosis and the surgery.READ MORE FOOTBALL NEWSEven worse was the moment when Siena, now six, was given an anaesthetic just before the op began.He said: “When I took Siena down to the surgery I had to drag my wife out of the anaesthetic room and we went to a room upstairs and we were just crying, both of us, for about 45 minutes.Heart murmur“It was five hours from hell, waiting for the phone to ring. It was a blur.”Jack and Andriani have now become ambassadors for the British Heart ­Foundation, and he praises the charity’s work in helping to keep poorly children like their daughter alive.Most read in FootballHe also hopes to alert other parents to the signs of heart problems.In Siena’s case the early symptoms for a congenital heart defect, which means it was present from birth, were not ­obvious.Four Arsenal stars confronted Arsene Wenger after huge stars sold to bitter rivals, reveals Jack Wilshere Jack said: “She was probably a bit more out of breath than her friends when she was on a trampoline, and chest infections hung around for longer.”Medics thought it may be due to asthma, because Andriani had ­it as a child.But it took two years for the real cause to be discovered, during a family holiday in Cyprus, where many of Andriani’s relatives live.Jack said: “My kids got ill — nothing serious — ear infections. The doctor listened to her heart and said, ‘I don’t want to worry you, but I can hear a bit of a murmur in her heart’, and said, ‘You should get it checked when you get back to the UK’.“That doctor saved my daughter’s life.”A cardiologist carried out a series of tests on Siena, and days later, rang Jack, who coaches Arsenal’s under-18s, just as he was about to go away with his squad.He recalled: “At the time I found out I was with my assistant.“I was at the training ground and I virtually broke down in his arms when I told him. All my staff were brilliant.”The hole in Siena’s heart was so serious that surgery was arranged for just a month later.Tests had revealed the gap in the muscle wall between the lower ­chambers of her heart meant it had to work much harder, which is why she was so out of breath.A tearful Andriani, 33, said: “I remember just falling to the floor and crying, I just couldn’t believe the news. It was shocking.”Siena after the life-saving February operationCredit: BBC SportOnly 40 per cent of people born with a heart defect need heart surgery.Often the issues are spotted while the child is in the womb.But the worst cases carry the chance of sudden death, and it is necessary to carry out the operations while patients are still young.Siena had a rare condition in which, Jack said, her veins had rerouted because they were leaking into her lungs.The wait for the day when she would be “fixed” was almost impossible for the doting dad to bear.And there was also the fear of his daughter undergoing a precarious operation.He said: “I remember the date she got diagnosed — the 27th of January — and she eventually had the surgery on the 27th of February, and that whole month I lost six kilos.Bag of nerves“I can’t even remember it, it was so stressful, because obviously there were risks involved in the surgery.”There was a one per cent chance she wouldn’t wake up.”His wife was equally anxious.Andriani said: “The night before, we were a bag of nerves. I remember having this feeling in the pit of my stomach.”A team of medics had to close the defect in Siena’s heart, which could have caused sudden death.She had surgery on Monday and we were back home on Friday. She was laughing, she’s really bubbly, she loves lifeJack WilshireAfter crying with his wife, Jack went for a coffee with his parents and took a walk around the block.Thankfully, they got the message that Siena had pulled through.Andriani recalled: “When we went down to the intensive care unit, it was all such a blur.“I heard Siena cry and it was then that I knew she was going to be OK.”Jack is in awe of the way his brave daughter had dealt with the terrible ordeal.He said: “I have been through surgery. I had a lot of injuries as a player, and it took me ages to recover.“She had the surgery on the Monday and we were back at home on the Friday and she was laughing.“She’s really bubbly, she loves life. It’s great to have her fixed.”And he added: “We call her our heart warrior. The bravery and strength she’s shown has been incredible.”Three months on, it seems that Siena is making a good recovery.Jack said: “The surgery has made all the difference and she has so much energy now.”Up against itThe breathlessness and coughing fits have relented.The couple are far from alone, because every day 13 babies in Britain are diagnosed with congenital heart disease.It was the British Heart Foundation which helped Jack and Andriani to understand what they were up against.Andriani said: “We didn’t know anything about congenital heart conditions and never thought our daughter would ever require open- heart surgery.“Turning to the BHF made us feel less alone and gave us the answers and support we needed.”The charity has been funding research into heart conditions for more than 60 years and put £99million into the field during 2022-2023.Wilshere and partner Andriani have become ambassadors for the British Heart FoundationCredit: BBC SportProud dad Jack says: ‘We call her our heart warrior’Credit: Eleven Miles.Jack said: “We’re supporting the British Heart Foundation because without life-saving research keeping children’s hearts beating, we might not have Siena here with us today.”It is not the first time the star has faced a health crisis with one of his children.His eldest son, Archie, 12, from his relationship with Lauren Neal, often had to be rushed to hospital in the middle of the night, suffering from seizures.Under controlJack, who also has daughter ­Delilah, ten, with Lauren and a four-year-old son, Jack Junior with Andriani, said in 2019: “My wife and I would sit up most nights because most of the seizures were happening at night.”Fortunately, doctors got the ­condition under control.Now Jack’s aim as a British Heart Foundation ambassador is to raise awareness of the charity’s important work and to encourage people to have any problems or concerns properly assessed.Many adults don’t even know they have a hole in the heart.Jack said: “There are people ­suffering cardiac arrests who have gone undiagnosed.”And he added: “You know your child better than anyone.

      Tyson Fury warned it’s ‘IMPOSSIBLE’ to beat Oleksandr Usyk with dad John and must tell him to ‘f*** off’ for rematch

      by

      TYSON FURY has been warned by Carl Froch that he must ditch dad John in order to have any chance of beating Oleksandr Usyk. Fury brought his dad into training camp in an official capacity for the first time in the lead up to the historic undisputed title deciderJohn Fury during the Oleksandr Usyk fightCredit: X @SkySportsBoxingJohn was also the third member of Fury’s crowded corner, joining head coach Sugarhill Steward and assistant, ex-world champion Andy Lee.And damning footage in the aftermath of the fight revealed John barking orders by shouting over lead voice Sugarhill.The antics caused British boxing legend Froch to urge Fury to dump John from his corner for the proposed rematch with Usyk.He told Lord Ping: “John Fury interfering in Tyson’s corner could have been the difference between winning and losing. READ MORE IN BOXING”His coach Sugarhill knows everything about the game, he was trying to give him instructions. “How can Tyson focus on SugarHill and take on those instructions when he’s got John Fury shouting down his ear and talking s*** to him through the ropes, it’s impossible. “You can’t listen to two people at once. That could have been the difference between winning and losing in a close fight, that interference in the corner could have cost Tyson the fight.”Before the bout had even started the volatile 59-year-old – once imprisoned for gauging a man’s eye out – was making unwanted headlines.Most read in BoxingCASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO WELCOME OFFERSFor all the love for resurgent AJ… these two are head, shoulders and fists ahead of everyone else
      OLEKSANDR USYK is the deserved undisputed heavyweight champion of the world, writes Wally Downes Jr
      A great biggun doesn’t always beat a great littleun, not when David has the weight of a besieged nation on his shoulders and is able to swing each compatriot into every punch.
      Usyk did what Usyk does, he moved magnificently, he counter punched and he outworked his taller and heavier opponent.
      He somehow manages to use every physical disadvantage to his favour.
      But what the hell is Fury doing getting up in round nine?
      Why is a father-of-eight with £300million in the bank, three best-selling books and a Netflix series going to the well like?
      Britain is not fighting back Putin’s army, Morecambe is not occupied.
      So when the 35-year-old’s senses are scrambled, when the canvas is calling him, when he is so desperate not to be felled he is willing to bounce around all the ropes like a drunk, when he eventually has to collapse into a corner, why doesn’t he just stay down?
      He has earned the right to surrender as well as his millions.
      The sheer courage and guts and bloody mindedness it takes to climb off that deck, with a broken nose and a crumbling ego is not comprehensible to us mortals.
      Fury said he felt he won the fight but was too dignified to call robbery or corruption, no doubt his dad will taint that decency by the time you’ve read this.
      The rematch will be superb.
      Because for all the love we have for a resurgent Anthony Joshua – who was ringside for that iconic event – these two polar opposite men are head, shoulders, fists, hearts and brains ahead of everyone else.
      There is the top two, then there is a void and then there is the rest.
      Read Wally’s big fight verdict in full here…

      John headbutted a smaller member of Usyk’s camp shortly after touching down in the notoriously strict Saudi Arabia.Somehow the former bare-knuckle brawler came off worse but Fury’s stunned reaction to the ruck was caught on camera.John Fury left bleeding from head as Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk’s camps clash in furious bust-upThe dethroned Gypsy King – beaten by split-decision – has since invoked his right to an immediate rematch.And it is being eyed for November or December as Froch doubled down on Fury dropping his dad as a member of the coaching team. He said: “I think John has played his role well to sell the fight but he stepped over the mark when he headbutted that kid.”So I don’t see the need for John Fury to be involved going forward, causing trouble. I don’t see the benefit to Tyson.”When you’ve got a bad egg in the camp, you have to get rid of it. John needs to give his son a wide berth because he was a negative distraction.”He was not a positive addition to that camp, I don’t think he brings anything to the table for Tyson.READ MORE SUN STORIES”And I think if Tyson is serious about having a chance to beat Usyk in the rematch he needs to tell his dad to f*** off.”Usyk and Fury are headed towards a rematch this yearCredit: GETTY More

      Inside Russell Martin’s emotional journey from living next to a bookies with an abusive dad to Premier League manager

      by

      RUSSELL MARTIN has spent his life proving people wrong.From growing up with an abusive dad to being told he was not good enough to make it as a pro.
      Russell Martin led Southampton to promotion on SundayCredit: Rex
      Ending up as a Premier League skipper and international footballer, Martin squeezed every last drop of talent out of his system.
      There were question marks when Saints appointed him on the back of relegation and being forced to sell £140million worth of players.
      So Sunday’s 1-0 win over Leeds — which sparked joyous celebrations on the south coast — was particularly sweet.
      It saw Martin get one over on Daniel Farke, the manager who banished him to Norwich’s Under-23s before terminating his contract.
      READ MORE FOOTBALL NEWS
      It also made Martin a Premier League manager at the age of 38.
      He has long been a trailblazer. He was Peterborough’s youngest captain at 21, took over as MK Dons’ boss at 33 and became manager at Swansea at 35.
      Last summer, he arrived at a club in turmoil after a wretched season in which Southampton went through three bosses — Ralph Hasenhuttl, Nathan Jones and Ruben Selles.
      Some fans wanted him axed after four straight losses in September.

      Russell Martin’s managerial career
      MK Dons (2019-21): 80 games, 30 wins, 19 draws, 31 losses – 37.5 win %
      Swansea (2021 – 23): 99 games, 36 wins, 27 draws, 36 losses – 36 win %
      Southampton (2023-present): 54 games, 30 wins, 11 draws, 13 losses – 55.5 win %

      But Martin never deviated from his strong principles of possession-based football and his team went a club-record 25 games unbeaten.
      For much of this season, Southampton had the highest possession percentage of any team in Europe’s top five leagues.
      Inside Russell Martin’s amazing journey from living at bookies with an abusive dad to Premier League manager
      That is Martin’s way. In March 2021, his MK Dons team set a British record 56 passes for a move leading to a goal — scored by Will Grigg.
      He stubbornly demands improvement on his gameplans, rather than resorting to any Plan B, and says: “If it doesn’t work and I get sacked, at least I get sacked doing something I believe in.”
      The second youngest of four brothers, Martin grew up in the Hollingbury area of Brighton.
      Late father Dean was violent towards mum Kerry and had stints in prison.
      The family home was lost to his gambling debts — and he moved them next door to a bookies.
      Little wonder that Martin dislikes gambling sponsorship in football.
      Through his dad, Martin qualified to play for Scotland and he won 29 caps.
      But one of his nans was Italian and cooked pasta for the boys when food ran out at their dysfunctional home.
      Martin won 29 caps for ScotlandCredit: Kenny Ramsay – The Sun Glasgow
      Martin is proud of that heritage — his children have Napoli shirts and regularly go on holiday to southern Italy.
      He excelled at school where he was head boy and took A-levels in history, PE and drama.
      The Brighton fan, with a soft spot for Spurs, was turned down by a string of professional clubs.
      Starting at non-league Lewes, he cleaned windows and pub toilets in the mornings with his uncle and did shifts at a Spar supermarket across the road in the evenings.
      He got his break under Tony Adams at Wycombe before moving on to Peterborough and Norwich — whose manager at the time, Paul Lambert, has been a huge influence on his career.
      He was a Canaries stalwart, captaining them to a play-off final victory over Middlesbrough in 2015.
      But Farke brought about a bitter end to an eight-year spell in Norfolk. He was loaned to Rangers before being shown the door.
      After a brief spell coaching at Walsall, he managed MK Dons and Swansea — where he overcame a rocky spell that left him one game from the sack — before landing the job at Southampton.

      Martin has remained very much his own man throughout.
      Now vegan as he suffers from ulcerative colitis — an inflamed bowel — Martin also meditates, has read up on Buddhism and was a member of the Green Party before becoming disillusioned with politics.
      Every day at Southampton he has an ice bath, uses a cryotherapy chamber near his home and swims in the sea at Hove — all year round.
      At the age of 30, he set up the Russell Martin Foundation to help youngsters in Sussex.
      What started out as a football academy now also helps kids struggling in mainstream school.
      Martin told SunSport: “Two of my brothers did not finish school and something like this would have made a huge difference.”
      Here is a man making a huge impact on and off the pitch.
      At his post-match Wembley press conference, a shattered-looking Martin said: “For them to give me the job in the first place, I felt like I had to do this to validate it.
      “I am so pleased for them because it wasn’t an exciting appointment for them.
