      by

      POP legends Atomic Kitten have officially released England anthem ‘Southgate You’re The One’ – SIXTEEN YEARS after their last track.The tune has become a fan favourite during Gareth Southgate’s reign and is a twist on the band’s No1 single ‘Whole Again’ from 20 years ago.

      Several lyrics have been added in the re-work, including ‘Southgate you’re the one’ and ‘football’s coming home again’.
      Two of the group’s current band members Natasha Hamilton and Liz McClarnon performed their updated hit in Croydon during a screening of England’s quarter-final victory against Ukraine.
      Atomic Kitten released the professional recording of ‘Southgate You’re The One’ on Tuesday, July 6 – the day before England play Denmark at Wembley.
      Announcing the song on Instagram, the group wrote: “It’s been a whirlwind couple of days, but we are super excited and grateful to be able to contribute to the awesome energy and patriotism that is filling the streets with this brand new version of ‘Whole Again’.
      “Totally inspired by the England football fans in support of Gareth Southgate and the super talented England football team, we will be singing loud and proud ‘Football’s Coming Home!'”
      The song became an unlikely football anthem during England’s run to the World Cup semi-finals three years ago, Southgate’s first major tournament as manager.

      Atomic Kitten’s last release was ‘Cradle’ in 2005, which reached No10 in the UK charts.
      The group enjoyed considerable success during the early noughties, achieving three No1 singles and two No1 albums.
      The re-release is another honour for the England coach, who has received plenty of plaudits after guiding the team to another semi-final.

      Fans have been campaigning for a statue of Southgate to be erected in Crawley, the town in West Sussex where he grew up.
      England are favourites to reach the final, although Denmark goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel has been taunting the country’s poor record at the Euros.
      The Three Lions are yet to become European champions, winning just one of their five major tournament semi-finals.

      Zlatan Ibrahimovic will perform at Sanremo Music Festival and sing duet with Sinisa Mihajlovic, Bologna manager claims

      by

      AC MILAN star Zlatan Ibrahimovic will SING at an Italian music festival, according to Bologna boss Sinisa Mihajlovic.
      The 39-year-old will perform a duet with Mihajlovic in Sanremo next month, no doubt becoming a pop sensation.

      The self-proclaimed “lion” is clearly a man of many talents.
      As well as winning trophies in Italy, Spain and England, he has a black belt in taekwondo and his autobiography I Am Zlatan was shortlisted for the prestigious William Hill Sports Book of the Year award.
      But those expecting Ibrahimoivic to clean up at the BRITs will be disappointed, as he is said to be an awful singer.
      Speaking to Sky Italia, his friend Mihajlovic said: “The two things I do least well are singing and dancing. Ibra is also a terrible singer.

      “At least we’ll make people laugh.”
      The Sanremo Music Festival has been held annually since 1951 and is one of the most popular music events in Italy.

      Man Utd’s biggest transfers ever, both in and out, including Ronaldo
      This year’s festival will last for five nights between March 2-6 and will be televised.

      Ibrahimovic will travel to the event by helicopter to ensure he can still fulfil his day job on the pitch.
      Ibra and Mihajlovic have been friends for many years after the Serbian coached him at Inter Milan.
      The 51-year-old left his position as assistant manager in 2008 to become Bologna’s boss and has since coached Fiorentina, Sampdoria and AC Milan, as well as the Serbian national team.

      He returned to Bologna in January 2019 and was reportedly interested in signing Ibrahimovic before the Swede re-joined AC Milan.
      Mihajlovic will be envious of the Rossoneri as the Swedish striker has been in excellent form this season.
      The former Manchester United star scored the 500th goal of his club career earlier this month as Milan defeated Crotone to return to the top of Serie A.
      And in December club legend Paolo Maldini said Ibrahimovic was on the same level as the great Marco van Basten.
