      But the build-up to the clash has seen Danis overstep the mark on a number of occasions.
      He has repeatedly taken aim at Paul’s partner Nina, 31, leaking an X-rated video of her last month.
      He has also made reference to her previously dating actor Leonardo DiCaprio.
      And his latest attempt to wind his boxing rival up was to post an old image on Twitter of the Danish model alongside ex-Man Utd man Forlan, 44.

      One person said: “Is that Diego Forlan?”
      Another added: “Is that Diego Forlan from Uruguay?? No way…”

      Yet despite Danis’ incessant trolling, Paul recently defended his partner, Nina.
      He said: “I love this girl. She is so great for me. She’s just kind of the same person as me.”
      Paul then went on to add: “I think he [Danis] has gone too far. It’s not affected me, no, because when I entered this fight, I knew Dillon was a scumbag.
      “I didn’t think he’d take it as far as he did. But you know, actions have consequences.
      “I think he’s going to get what’s coming to him. I think the people online are speaking for me.”

      How sold and forgotten Chelsea stars could fill ENTIRE Champions League squad this season – and have pick of managers

      by

      TODD BOEHLY’S Chelsea have been the Premier League’s big spenders since his takeover in May last year.If the £45million transfer of Cole Palmer goes through they will have spent over £1billion in transfer fees during Boehly’s ownership.

      But part of his aggressive transfer strategy has seen Chelsea shed a number of players from the old regime.
      This summer alone, 21 players have left Chelsea either permanently or on loan, including a number of former regular starters in the form of Kai Havertz, Mason Mount and Mateo Kovacic.
      That means the sight of a former Chelsea player popping up for a team in Europe has become commonplace.
      A remarkable 28 ex-Chelsea players are plying their trade for teams in the Champions League this season with a further three ex-Chelsea managers calling the shots at clubs in Europe’s elite competition.
      READ MORE ON FOOTBALL
      Not all of these players left under the Boehly regime, but the number of players still playing at Europe’s highest level is testament to the club’s high turnover.
      Chelsea don’t have to look too far from home to be reminded of former Blues now playing in the Champions League, with a number of their players playing for fellow Premier League teams.
      Manchester City have Kevin De Bruyne, Nathan Ake and the aforementioned Kovacic all plying their trade for them.
      Arsenal’s squad contains Jorginho, who joined the club last January, Havertz and former Cobham academy player Declan Rice.

      Newcastle took Lewis Hall on loan from Chelsea last week, and also snapped up Tino Livramento from Southampton in a £30m deal – who is another product of the Chelsea academy.
      The Magpies have been drawn in the same Champions League group as AC Milan who have FOUR ex-Chelsea players: Olivier Giroud, Fikayo Tomori, Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Christian Pulisic.
      Manchester United added Mount to their ranks this summer in a £65m deal, the only player to up their Chelsea quota.
      If all of Chelsea’s ex-players were to link up in a hypothetical squad, they would be spoilt for choice for ex-Chelsea managers to take charge of them.
      Maurizio Sarri currently manages Lazio, Thomas Tuchel is in charge at Bayern and Carlo Ancelotti is still head honcho at Real Madrid, where he manages Thibaut Courtois and Antonio Rudiger.

      United confirmed last month he would not play for the club again after a six-month internal investigation into rape and assault charges that were dropped.
      Greenwood, 21, had been suspended by the Red Devils since his arrest in January 2022.
      But the Old Trafford outfit remain heavily involved — and worked round the clock to create a bespoke care package ahead of his deadline day move to the Madrid-based club.
      It includes an £8,000-a-month, six- bedroom city villa close to his new club’s training ground and access to a private translator 24/7.
      READ MORE IN FOOTBALL
      Family and friends will be flown out regularly to keep him company. His dad, Andrew, 53, who oversaw his private training sessions as United decided his fate, is likely to move with him.
      Greenwood has told pals that he is determined to repay the faith shown in him by scoring a glut of goals and has not given up on a Red Devils return.
      A source said: “He’s going on loan but remains a United player.
      “It means the club has an ongoing duty of care to him and they’ve pledged to help him make a success of his move to Spain.
      Most read in Football
      “The villa is big enough for friends and family to visit. They will get the opportunity to travel to see him as much as they can.
      “It’s important he has a solid support network around him. The last thing they want is Mason isolated.”
      It is understood United will pay more than half of his £75,000-a-week wages while he is in Spain.
      Another source said Greenwood is raring to go. They added: “He’s happy he’s got himself a club in LaLiga and can finally begin to put the last two years behind him.
      “He wants to concentrate on football and becoming the best version of himself — on and off the field. He’s looking forward to playing against Barcelona and Real Madrid. He’s going to show everyone that he’s changed and that he’s matured. He knows it’ll be a long road but it starts here.”
      In a statement Erik ten Hag’s club said the move would “enable Greenwood to begin to rebuild his career away from United”.
      It vowed: “The club will continue to offer its support to Mason and his family during this period of transition.”
      Greenwood, who has one England cap, was suspended by United after his arrest for sexual violence.
      The club will continue to offer its support to Mason and his family during this period of transitionMan Utd statement
      He was later charged with attempted rape and sexual assault but the case against him was discontinued by prosecutors in February.
      United said he would remain suspended on full pay while it conducted an internal investigation into his alleged behaviour.
      The decision to part ways was announced after five months of intense discussions and a huge backlash against plans to bring him back into the fold.
      In a statement the club said it did not believe Greenwood had committed the offences he was accused of and allegations did not give “the full picture”. But they admitted the striker had “made mistakes” and needed to take responsibility.
      United added: “Throughout, we have taken into account the wishes of the alleged victim along with the club’s standards and values.”
      They added “it has been mutually agreed” that Greenwood would find a new club.
      But Old Trafford CEO Richard Arnold said United would continue to offer the player and his alleged victim support to help them “rebuild and move forward”.
      Greenwood, who became a dad to a baby girl in July, admitted he needed to set a better example to become “a good father, a better person and to use my talents in a positive way on and off the pitch”.

      Arsenal declined to comment but initial reports claimed the player had torn a hamstring and was facing a long spell on the sidelines.

      Mo Salah to be rested by Egypt as Liverpool ace considers future after Al-Ittihad’s monstrous £170m transfer bid

      by

      MO SALAH has been rested by Egypt as the Liverpool star weighs up his future after a mega £170million Saudi offer.Al-Ittihad made the eye-watering bid just hours after the Reds rejected £150m.

      Liverpool are adamant that forward Salah is not for sale but the Saudi Pro League side are willing to go as high as a world-record £200m ahead of the transfer window in the Middle East closing  on Thursday.
      Last Thursday, Egypt chief Rui Vitoria called up Salah for the Africa Cup of Nations dead rubber qualifier at home to Ethiopia on Friday.
      The 31-year-old  was due to join his international team-mates on Monday to prepare but Salah has been allowed to stay in the UK and be available for any talks on his future.
      SunSport understands the Egyptian Football Association have “decided to give him a break” but Salah is expected to travel for the friendly against Tunisia at home on September 12.

      Reports in Salah’s homeland claimed the EFA said in a statement:  “The coach decided not to depend on Salah in the Ethiopia game, especially as the team has already ensured qualification for the African Cup of Nations finals. Salah will play the Tunisia game normally.”
      Egypt have already secured their spot at the continental championships in Ivory Coast in January 2024 as Group D winners.
      Signing Salah – who has scored 140 goals in 234 Premier League appearances – would be a major coup for a league that has splashed out hundreds of millions of petro-dollars on marquee names this summer.
      Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp admits his club are powerless to stop Saudi mega-money transfers.

      Especially when Salah – an Arabic speaker and devout Muslim – has been offered a staggering £2.3m a week to make the monster move.
      Liverpool, who are not in the Champions League this season, face Aston Villa at Anfield and it could represent Salah’s last match.
      Meanwhile, Ryan Gravenberch  trained with the Reds for the first time after his £34.2m move from Bayern Munich.
      The Dutchman is not available for the Anfield clash with Villa but he was put through his paces alongside his new team-mates at Melwood.
      And in front of Gravenberch’s international team-mates Virgil van Dijk and Cody Gakpo, Andy Robertson quipped: “Finally, a good Dutch player!” More

      And his sights are set firmly on the big Anfield reserve, 24.
      Republic of Ireland stopper Kelleher hoped to move this summer but missed out on a possible Premier League switch.
      However, his exit down the line remains likely.
      Celtic checked into Kelleher’s availability and were told he could not go just now, especially with fears of Arab interest in Kop keeper Alisson.

      Liverpool would also need to find a homegrown replacement for Kelleher, so that makes it even harder to allow him to leave.
      But the chance of being Celtic No 1 for the next few years appeals to the keeper after spending so long in the shadows at Anfield.
      Meanwhile, Liverpool will try to land Brazilian midfielder Andre, 22, in the January transfer window.
      Fluminense star Andre was on their radar in the summer but the club would not go beyond £30million for him.

      And with Andre’s side chasing domestic honours in Brazil, they were not willing to trade.
