    Ex-Premier League star’s son jailed for leaving cop, 67, with bleed on the brain after punching her 33 times in hospital

    A FORMER Premier League’s star son has been jailed after punching a retired female cop 33 times in a savage attack at a hospital.Joni Hartson – son of Arsenal, Celtic and Wales player-turned-pundit John Hartson – lured fellow patient Dawn Lloyd, 67, into a garden.Joni Hartson has been jailed for attacking a retired detectiveCredit: WNSThe thug is the son of former Premier League star John HartsonCredit: The SunThe 22-year-old then launched into the terrifying attack – punching her 33 times as she desperately tried to defend herself.Chillingly, Hartson told police he targeted Dawn – a former Royal protection officer – because her age made her an “easy target”.He later admitted: “I wish I had killed her.”Hartson also attacked a healthcare worker days later by punching his arm when he was moved to a hospital in Carmarthen.The brute has now been jailed for two years and six months after pleading guilty to GBH and assault of an emergency worker.Cardiff Crown Court heard Hartson, who has autism, was a patient at Bryngofal Ward in the Prince Philip Hospital in Llanelli, South Wales.He had not been sectioned at the time of the attack on October 18 last year but was being treated for suicidal thoughts.Shocking CCTV showed Hartson battering Dawn – a former detective who had served for 17 years in Hampshire and the Isle of Wight.Most read in FootballShe was left with a bleed on the brain following the horror and is now unable to form coherent sentences.But the court was told Dawn, who was suffering from confusion due to an autoimmune condition when she was attacked, is able to say: “He’s not going to hit me again.”Her sister Hannah Cox said in a victim impact statement how Dawn worked with the Royal protection team and later went on to be an office manager for on the Queen’s Jubilee.She added: “Dawn served diligently and with compassion.”But Hannah said her sister has since become anxious and worried and is scared of loud noises – including doors slamming.Owen Williams, defending, said Hartson was depressed with suicidal thoughts when he carried out the violent assault.He also said the thug was suffering from “possible hallucinations which were commanding in nature” – although no psychosis diagnosis has been given.Sentencing, Judge Tracey Lloyd-Clarke called the attack “planned and premeditated”.She added: “You selected Miss Lloyd because you could see that she was vulnerable.”You used those vulnerabilities to select her as a target. You deliberately chose someone who would quite obviously be unable to resist.”Hartson was signed as a teenager by Swansea City, with his dad previously expressing his pride at the footballer’s hat-trick against Liverpool’s youth team.John Hartson began his career at Luton in 1992 before joining Arsenal three years later for £2.5million – a record for a teen player at the time.The striker played for the club 53 times – scoring 14 goals – before he left in 1997 to join West Ham.In 1999, John became Wimbledon’s most expensive signing ever when he signed a £7.5million contract.His time at the club didn’t last long though and after a stint at Coventry, John moved to Celtic in 2001 in a £6million transfer.Read More on The SunHe played for the team 146 times and scored 88 goals before moving make to England in 2006 to join West Brom.Hartson eventually hung up his boots in 2007 after gaining 51 caps for Wales.Hartson has been jailed for two yearsCredit: WNSJohn Hartson previously gushed about his son when he played for Swansea’s academy teamJohn played for ArsenalCredit: GettyHe also made 146 appearances for CelticCredit: Getty More

    How Real Madrid could line up under Jurgen Klopp with Trent Alexander-Arnold, Liverpool and RB Leipzig stars

    JURGEN KLOPP has been linked with a shock move to Real Madrid after it was reported that manager Carlo Ancelotti will soon depart.According to Sky Sports, Ancelotti, 65, is set to walk away from Real after the Copa del Rey final against Barcelona on April 26 following Wednesday’s Champions League elimination to Arsenal.Jurgen Klopp has been linked with a shock move to Real Madrid a year after leaving LiverpoolReal manager Carlo Ancelotti has been linked with a departure this monthKlopp could reunite with Trent Alexander-Arnold and another Liverpool star at RealAnd UOL Esporte report Klopp, 57, is “ready” to take over at the Santiago Bernabeu a year after leaving Liverpool.The same source claims the German tactician is “unhappy” in his new job at Red Bull as Global Head of Football.Thus, the Liverpool legend is open to talking to Madrid, with the intention of returning to coaching as early as July.The ex-Borussia Dortmund boss reportedly has a special clause that could see him cut his contract short for a return to the dugout.Read More on FootballIf he succeeds Ancelotti then the German may go back to his Liverpool contacts book to lure some fresh talent to the Spanish capital.The famous gaffer could also bring in some of the players he is currently dealing with at Red Bull.For starters, Klopp could reunite with Trent Alexander-Arnold who turned down a new contract with the Reds and is close to moving to Real as a free agent in June.It’s understood he’s already agreed terms on a £240,000-a-week deal at the Bernabeu. Most read in FootballLos Blancos have also been previously linked with Alexander-Arnold’s team-mate Ibrahima Konate.CASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO BONUSES FROM £10 DEPOSITSKonate joined the Merseysiders from RB Leipzig in 2021 under Klopp and his contract runs out in 2026. That means the Premier League champions-elect may have to sell the centre-back this summer to avoid losing him for free, like they’re doing with TAA.Carlo Ancelotti shows his disappointment as Real Madrid crashes out of Champions League to Arsenal Therefore, if Klopp moves to Madrid then the Spanish champions could have Trent at right-back with David Alaba on the other side, while Konate could team up with Antonio Rudiger at centre-back in front of star goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois.Aurelien Tchouameni and Eduardo Camavinga – already at Real Madrid – may link up in midfield.Alexander-Arnold’s England team-mate Jude Bellingham could start at No10 with Vinicius Jr on his right and Kylian Mbappe on the other side.And when it comes to the man that would lead the line, that is where Klopp’s Red Bull contacts would come into play.The ex-Mainz boss could call on Leipzig star Benjamin Sesko, who has also been linked with Arsenal.Real have so much quality that they wouldn’t need much tweaking, but Klopp would be able to attract some of Liverpool and Red Bull’s best players.

    Leicester vs Liverpool prediction: Free betting tips, odds and Premier League preview

    THERE’S a huge clash at the top and bottom of the table as soon-to-be champions Liverpool travel to soon-to-be Leicester.SunSport have enlisted the help of their betting experts to preview the King Power showdown and select the best bets, tips and exclusive sign-up bonuses from our leading betting partners.Find The Sun’s betting publishing principles hereNew sign-up offersSunSport exclusivesLeicester vs Liverpool previewLiverpool just need two more wins to be crowned Premier League champions – and they’re short odds to pick one of those up here.Especially given there are 58 POINTS between them in the table.The 13-point lead Liverpool hold over Arsenal going into the weekend won’t be caught anyway but Arne Slot will be determined to clinch it sooner than later – and in some style too.They’ve had one or two stutters in the past few weeks as they try to get over the line, including at the weekend when conceding an 89th minute equaliser, only for Virgil van Dijk to win it in stoppage time.That result made it just two wins from their last five games in all competitions but there’d need to be something really wrong not to win on Sunday.Leicester finally ended an eight-game running of looking for a GOAL when battling back twice to leave Brighton with a 2-2 draw.They’re 17 points from safety with six games and 18 points up for grabs.
