It’s one of the most historic deals in the footballing world ever and means huge money as a result.”Most read in FootballHaaland and Isabel were childhood friends, before they became romantically involved.Erling Haaland signs stunning nine-and-a-half-year Man City contract and ‘one of sport’s most lucrative contracts ever’ They both played for the same football club when they were kids in their native Norway.As Haaland’s career took off, she joined him on his journey – from RB Salzburg to Borussia Dortmund and Manchester City.However, the pretty brunette – who played for Byrne FK in her homeland – has purposefully kept a low-profile.She is believed to work part-time at a fashion store.The source continued: “What is lovely about these two is unlike other football couples, they don’t even need to try and constantly promote themselves – it just comes effortlessly.They will be the wealthiest, most famous couple in the world of football. “She’s come from very humble beginnings, world’s away from what they have now. “She’s a girl who absolutely loves sport and football – that’s how they met and she’s a footballer herself, and is amazingly fit as well as stunningly beautiful and the brands are going to be all over her – not just sporting names but beauty too.   “For them things just happen, and unlike other football couples that are constantly promoting themselves, it just comes effortlessly for them.  “She’s such a lovely girl, who has no airs or graces and has been more than happy to support herself working part-time in a shop.

She’s so ‘normal’ by Wag standards – she doesn’t have to try hard and looks good even when playing football. “She’s got the world at her feet, but she’s so humble – she’ll keep both their feet firmly on the ground. With such a mega bucks deal he needs people he can trust and they met at a young age and that’s what’s so lovely about them, he can trust her completely.”With his new contract out there, Haaland could find himself the centre of attention for glam girls lining up to date him.But, family should help him avoid temptation – and the way the couple lead their life, out of the limelight, should make it easier for the lovebirds.The source said: “As with any footballing star there will of course be a string of girls lined up wanting to date him and she will have to have eyes in the back of her head, but she will keep him down to earth and they have a close knit family to support them. “They will be a powerhouse couple. They’ve done some red carpets together before but they don’t seek the limelight and are very choosy – they only do what they want to.”They don’t have to, and this makes her more interesting and creates more intrigue – she doesn’t show off or try to promote herself.”Last summer, Haaland and Isabel were spotted on board a luxury private yacht in Italy.He also owns a £6million holiday home in Marbella, which he visits regularly with Isabel.They enjoy all the trappings that one of the richest sports stars in the world could.But, Isabel isn’t with Haaland for what he offers.The insider explained: “Of course she enjoys the perks of that sort of money and the luxurious lifestyle – the holidays, the shopping – it can get you, but she’s with Haaland for all the right reasons.Isabel celebrates Haaland’s success but prefers to stay out of the limelightCredit: GettyVery rarely do the pair pose on the red carpet togetherCredit: GettyAn insider says Isabel is with Haaland for all the right reasons”She genuinely has a passion for the beautiful game, and that’s the difference – she’s a sports star in her own right and she’s not in it for the luxury. READ MORE SUN STORIES”She also really appreciates everything they have too – she doesn’t take anything for granted.”They’ve both worked hard to get to where they are and she’s not afraid of hard work.

      Tyson Fury’s biggest battle will be trying to walk away from boxing for good, after shock retirement announcement

      by

      TYSON Fury may have announced his retirement – but we’ve seen this dance before.The Gypsy King, 36, took to Instagram on Monday to say he’s hanging up his gloves following a second defeat to Oleksandr Usyk.Former boxing champ Tyson Fury has announced his retirement from boxingCredit: PAFury leaves the sport of boxing as a legendCredit: AP Photo/Martin MeissnerFamously, Fury has found it hard when he’s not in the ring – suffering depression and piling on the poundsHe wrote on social media: “Hey everybody, I am going to make it short and sweet. I would like to announce my retirement from boxing.”It has been a blast and I have loved every single minute of it.”I’m going to end with this – Dirk Turpin wore a mask.”God bless everybody and see you on the other side.”read more in boxingIt’s unclear why Fury referenced the infamous highway man from the 1700s, but it offers a cryptic hint about his future.Fury had been tipped to fight Anthony Joshua next in a highly-anticipated all-British clash, but his announcement means the bout is now off.His career ends with a record of 34 wins, one draw and two defeats and he has been a multiple champion, having lifted the WBO, WBC, IBF, IBO and The Ring belts.Now, his biggest battle awaits – trying to walk away from boxing for good.Most read in BoxingIn the past, Fury has struggled without the sport that made him a household name and earned him a fortune in excess of £120million.SunSport’s Wally Downes Jr reacts to Tyson Fury’s shock retirement aged 36 Not his first retirement…THIS isn’t the first time Tyson Fury has retired.His first came 12 YEARS ago, when in 2013 he grew frustrated when a fight with David Haye fell through.He declared at the time: “Hi everyone, I have officially retired from boxing. There’s too many bent [crooked] people in the sport. They will have to f*** someone else. Goodbye boxing.”Then, he took a three-year break from the sport between 2015 and 2018, during which many didn’t expect to see him again.In 2022 he retired TWICE.Speaking in the ring after defeating Dillian Whyte at Wembley with a sixth-round finish, he revealed he’d made a promise to wife Paris.He stated: “I’m a two-time undisputed world champion. [I have] £150million in the bank and nothing to prove to anybody.”Later in the year, he stated his plan to “100 per cent” return to the ring.But then just four days later he posted on X that he was quitting again.He posted: “Massive thanks to everyone who had an input in my career over the years & after long hard conversations I’ve finally decided to walk away & on my 34th birthday I say Bon voyage.”It means there will be serious doubts that his latest declaration truly means we’ll never see him in the ring again.He famously ballooned up to 28 stone before he made his epic comeback against Deontay Wilder in 2018.Depression, which led to alcohol, cocaine abuse, as well as suicidal thoughts contributed towards his downfall then.Only last year, wife Paris revealed: “It was the worst few years of our lives.”Nothing can, seemingly, fill the void of boxing, as SunSport explains. But, a life of more reality TV could be in the offing.His darkest daysFury was king of the ring when he defeated Wladimir Klitschko with a superb boxing display in 2015.But, what soon followed was a mental health battle that was harder than any opponent faced.In 2016, he was diagnosed with obsessive compulsive disorder and bipolar.Amid struggles with depression, he soon turned to alcohol and cocaine as his life spiralled out of control.At his lowest point he attempted to drive his Ferrari into a motorway bridge — only to stop at the last minute as he thought about his family.In 2015, Fury stunned the world in a boxing masterclass over Wladimir KlitschkoCredit: APIn 2016, a topless and bleary-eyed Fury was spotted partying with England fans in NiceCredit: Darren Fletcher – The SunAt his lowest ebb, Fury considered crashing his Ferrari into a bridgeCredit: Instagram @gypsyking101By that point, already two years away out of the ring, his boxing career appeared over.Incredibly, his weight ballooned as his lifestyle took control of him. He turned his back on the gym, and weighed up to 28 stone at his heaviest.He was famously spotted at Euro 2016 buying England fans Jagerbombs after the Three Lions crashed out to Iceland.”I needed some time off, I’d been boxing from boxing since 10, 11 years old up to 27 with no breaks. So I needed time to live a little and enjoy myself but it just went too far,” he told the Breakfast Club in 2018.”I really don’t know what had me depressed but I knew I was just spiralling out of control. The only thing I could think of to make it better and go away for a bit was getting drunk and that just led to problems after problems after problems.”Paris’ woesDuring that period in Fury’s life, wife Paris was his rock.She admittedly found her husband to be intolerable. “It was the worst few years of our lives,” she told INews about those lost years between 2015-2017.Incredibly, Tyson pulled himself out of his lowest ebb by hitting the gym hard following a sudden “epiphany”.”Within a month of being crowned world heavyweight champ, I was an emotional wreck on my way to a heart attack, thanks to a diet of Class-A drugs, junk food and alcohol,” he wrote in his book, The Furious Method.Fury made a change to his lifestyle with the help of trainer Kristian Blacklock, standing to the boxer’s rightCredit: https://www.instagram.com/kristianblacklock/Fury revealed those two years were the hardest they faced as a coupleCredit: Instagramread more sport features”I had my epiphany in a pub on Halloween night in 2017, hopelessly overweight and humiliated, wearing a skeleton outfit that was skin-tight and emphasised my full 28st.”Although I had started training again, I was still drinking and going on benders and making life a misery for my wife, my children and those who were closest to me.”Looking around the pub at people half my age I felt like a disgrace, and I knew things had to change.”I left the pub early for a change and later that night I stood in my bedroom in my underpants, fell on my knees and cried out to God to help me.”Fury got to work in the gym – working alongside trainer Kristian Blacklock – and miraculously shed 10 stone.He was back in the ring in 2018, earning a credible draw in his first bout against Deontay Wilder.Climbing off the canvas in round 12, after he was floored by a haymaker from Wilder, he showed astonishing mental courage.However, in 2019 Fury fell out of love with boxing once again and worried Paris revealed her concerns that there is potential for him to slip into depression, once again, without the sport.She said on their Netflix show, At Home with the Furys: “When he last stopped boxing, Tyson had an alcohol and drug addiction. He suffers from a few mental health problems. He’s got ADHD, depression, and it all spiralled out of control. We had a bad two years.”There’s no point saying that won’t happen again because that’s the elephant in the room I think about.”Fury showed incredible courage to draw with Deontay Wilder in their first fight after over two years out of boxingCredit: GettyParis Fury has spoken of her fears when husband Tyson doesn’t box of him spiralling out of control againCredit: ReutersFury has since become an advocate for mental health, after his depression woesCredit: PASo what’s next?The Dick Turpin clue might hint towards a career in WWE as a masked wrestler – think Mexican luchador.Back on 2019, Fury made his debut in the squared circle – defeating Braun Strowman by count out.However, it’s his career as a reality TV star that seems the most likely.Back in 2020, Tyson Fury: The Gyspy King on ITV was the catalyst for a life on the small screen.Sharing his life in Morecambe with Paris and their children, he now has seven, was captivating viewing. TV gold, at least, for Netflix who signed him and his family up on a mega deal for their own Kardashian-style show.Filming for a second series started last year, and that’s expected to drop this year.At Home with the Furys showed the family in a different lifeCredit: Courtesy of NetflixTyson Fury has proven to be a hit for Netflix thanks to his infectious personalityCredit: NetflixTime will tell if this really is the end of Fury’s boxing career after his retirement announcementCredit: RexAmusingly, Fury does embrace the mundane – so he’s partial to trips to the tip, for one.READ MORE SUN STORIESBut there’s only so many times you can visit the tip, before boredom kicks in.As we said, Fury will find it hard to resist the urge to get back in the ring once again.View of The Sun’s boxing expert: ‘I think it’s a ploy’By Wally Downes JrCALL ME a miserable fat little boxing cynic, but Tyson Fury’s latest retirement just doesn’t wash with me.It wasn’t too long ago we were hearing he had a ten-fight deal with Saudi Arabia, that he was gonna fight Anthony Joshua twice, then he was going to face Joseph Parker twice.He was planning on doing every fight in the world – there was even talk he’d rematch Francis Ngannou and do a better job.IF he has retired, then he goes out with an incredible career having made over £300million in boxing events alone, let alone all the extra stuff.He does so having sacrificed bundles of his own life for such success.We know his wife Paris suffered a miscarriage going into the first Olesandr Usyk fight.We know for Deontay Wilder III, his little girl was put in intensive care, he barely even trained for that fight, he was sleeping on the hospital floor.IF he has retired, IF it is genuine, then it’s been an incredible career.And for the big showman, it’s probably a nice little short sharp way to go out by just posting a video while sat inside his car.But I can’t help but think that it’s a bit of a ploy to drive AJ a little bit crazy.AJ was at the Ring Awards the other day and put out a social media post saying “Fury, where are you? I’m looking for you.”It’s the only fight that AJ wants, and Fury being wise and looking at the Floyd Mayweather playbook, knows that once you retire, you have to be coaxed out of retirement.And how do you coax someone out of retirement? Loads more readies.The fact of the matter is, Fury has always told us: I’m a prize fighter, I do it for money, I’m gonna do it for as long as I can and make as much money as I can.So the idea that he suddenly ducks out now doesn’t seem to ring quite true.As Fury made the announcement, I was with Frank Warren and he said hadn’t spoken to Tyson about it today, but that he hopes that it’s true, that Fury’s done enough and made enough money.IF it’s true, then what an incredible career.Fury and AJ have put British boxing on the map where it’s not been for decades, not since Lennox Lewis 25 years ago.So thank you, but rather than being at his leaving party, which I’m sure The Sun would be invited to, I suspect we’ll see him boxing AJ in Riyadh in a few months.  More

      by

      WANDA Nara is stuck in a divorce hell, with ex-husband Mauro Icardi finding love with his alleged mistress in what feels like a storyline from a Latin American telenovela.The Argentinian beauty, 38, announced her relationship with the former Inter Milan striker, who she shares two daughters with, was over in July.Wanda Nara and Mauro Icardi in happier times before their split six months agoCredit: Instagram @mauroicardiSince their split, Nara has endured a horrific six monthsCredit: Instagram @wanda_naraIcardi has since moved on with model and actress China SuarezCredit: https://www.instagram.com/mauroicardi/However, since their split the pair are no closer to finding a happy resolution.In a rebound romance, the curvy blonde couldn’t find happiness with South American rapper L-Gante.While Icardi is settling down with glam actress and model China Suarez, who he allegedly had an affair with.Worse still, the Galatasaray forward has moved Suarez into a £3.3million mansion in Argentina that Nara believed she and Icardi would live in when he retired from football.Read more in footballNara has endured a rotten six months, as SunSport can reveal.Messy break upBack in the summer, after Icardi and Nara had tried to make things work following infidelity rumours, she asked for a divorce.But the 31-year-old footballer was opposed to the idea, as was revealed by x-rated messages he sent to her after she said she wanted to part ways with him.In text messages used by Nara’s lawyers as divorce proceedings continue, it emerged that he begged for her back.Most read in FootballIcardi wrote, as reported by Bild: “Do you think I want to f*** another girl? You think I want to do something with another girl… I can’t! I want to do it with you, […], like I’ve been doing it for 10 years and I’m crazy about it and I love it so much!!!

Will you give us a chance? Will you leave me?”Nara didn’t want to give him a chance, and instead she moved on with Argentinian rap singer L-Gante.They met in 2022 when she starred in one of his music videos and enjoyed a steamy kiss, which reportedly left Icardi fuming.But she recently announced she was single to concentrate on her divorce and her children.In a deleted Instagram story with L-Gante, Nara posted: ‘Today our paths are going our separate ways, so that we can take care of ourselves and focus on our work and our family. “My complex and painful legal situation made me take this decision. Today my children need me and my time is totally dedicated to them.”Nara recently revealed her romance with Argentine rapper L-Gante is overCredit: InstagramDivorce proceedings between Icardi and Nara are getting messy after x-rated text messages from him were leakedCredit: Getty Images – GettyNara’s focus is now on her divorce proceedings and her childrenCredit: instagram @wanda_nararead more sport featuresIcardi falls for SuarezAfter Nara went public with her relationship with L-Gante, Icardi followed suit with China Suarez.Reports in their homeland alleged that Suarez and Icardi had an affair the same year L-Gante and Nara were seen enjoying a steamy kiss in his pop promo.Now, Nara believes Icardi wants to “destroy” her because she walked out on him.She appeared on Argentina TV show LAM, where she also claimed Icardi has moved Suarez into a home in the exclusive La Isla neighbourhood of Nordelta, Buenos Aires, that they had planned to live in when he retired.”Seeing this woman uploading photos in the house I dreamed of for my daughters breaks my soul,” a tearful Nara said. “That house is mine because Mauro bought it when we were married. In Argentina there is no division of property. That house will be my daughters’ and mine too. This is not a separation, it is a constant provocation.”But, according to Paparazzi.com, Icardi has no intentions of sharing the mansion – and has told Suarez to decorate the property how she sees fit.Icardi has now moved Suarez into Nara’s ‘dream home’Credit: https://www.instagram.com/mauroicardi/Suarez and Icardi allegedly had an affair when he was married to NaraCredit: InstagramIcardi has reportedly allowed Suarez to decorate a home he bought when he was married to NaraThe kidsNara has two girls with Icardi, Francesca, 9, and Isabella, 8.She also has three other children with former footballer, Maxi Lopez.Meanwhile, Suarez has three children from two previous relationships.Nara, who was forced to spend Christmas apart from Francesca and Isabella, claims that Suarez is trying to turn her two daughters against her.”Someone who helped them in a toy store wrote to me and told me: ‘I’m with these girls because their mother abandoned them,” Nara revealed.”That’s a huge lie. I never abandoned my daughters. I didn’t see them because Mauro didn’t sign the authorisation for me to leave the country with them. He decided to keep the girls so they wouldn’t be with me at the parties.”Before China, our life was perfect. When I asked for a divorce, he swore to me that he was going to destroy me. Now he is carrying out his threats, using my daughters and allowing this woman to say things as serious as that I abandoned them. “I never thought that anyone would lend themselves to something like that, and even less a mother.”Nara has vowed to fight till the bitter end and ensure she comes out of the horror situation with her head held high.Nara has accused Suarez of trying to turn her two daughters against herNara has vowed to fight till the end as far as her divorce is concernedCredit: Instagram”I will not remain silent,’ she determinedly said on LAM.READ MORE SUN STORIES”This woman has already caused harm to other families, but she will not be able to do so with me.
