    Donny van de Beek appears to blame Man Utd for injuries and admits warming the bench left his confidence shot to pieces

    DONNY VAN DE BEEK has linked his ongoing injury problems with being benched during his nightmare spell at Manchester United.Van de Beek’s was forced to undergo surgery on his Achilles last week after a confidence-building debut season with Girona. Donny van de Beek’s career took a downward spiral when he joined Man Utd in 2020The Dutchman said injuries came after being sidelined for extended periods of timeThe former Man Utd and Ajax midfielder rediscovered his love for the game with 35 appearances for the LaLiga side this season.It marked a significant step in his quest to rediscover a run of form that once made him one of Europe’s most wanted players.In fact, Van de Beek was so keen to impress that he pushed through a disastrous pain barrier to help Girona retain their LaLiga status this term.He told SPORTbible: “I’ve had this Achilles issue for a while and kept playing through it, but it got too much in the end.”READ MORE ON MAN UTDThe 28-year-old has suffered another setback and will miss the final game of the season on Sunday after having surgery on his left ankle.The Dutchman has endured several different injuries since his doomed £35million move from Ajax to Old Trafford in 2020.And Van de Beek as now linked his fitness issues to his extended time spent on the bench during his four years at Man Utd.He said: “It’s difficult to build rhythm and confidence when you’re constantly being sidelined.Most read in FootballJoin SUN CLUB for the Man Utd Files every Thursday plusin-depth coverage and exclusives from Old Trafford”It’s hard to be at your best when you’re in and out of the team, and I think when you’re not playing regularly.”Your body isn’t used to the intensity and you become more prone to injuries. The lack of consistent minutes didn’t help either.”Bilbao cops to launch ‘biggest security operation ever’ as 70,000 Brits flood Spanish city for Europa League finalFrom thighs, groins and hamstrings, to a huge knee injury that kept him out for 179 days, Van de Beek spent more and more time in the medical room.And it was the same at during his loan spells at Goodison Park and Bundesliga side Eintracht Frankfurt.After starting just four league games in his debut season under Ole Gunnar Solksjaer, Van de Beek started three consecutive games for the first time under Erik ten Hag after two years in 2022.But a brutal season-ending injury against Bournemouth, wiped out that momentum.

I still love to see United play and hope they can win it.Van de BeekSPORTbibleVan de Beek added: “I think I deserved more chances, especially in my first year.”I didn’t play all the time, but when I did, I had some good games. I was convinced I would get more opportunities.”I felt good, and thought, ‘Okay, my time will come’ but for some reason, it didn’t happen.”After a year or two, it gets harder because if you don’t get a longer run of games then it’s difficult to prove yourself.”But the Dutchman still holds Man Utd close to his heart and his family have fond memories of living in Manchester.And he’ll be cheering Ruben Amorim’s side from afar against Tottenham in the Europa League final – four years after being part of the United squad that fell to a penalty shoot-out defeat against Villarreal.He said: “I’ll be watching on Wednesday night.

He beat Scull, 32, in Riyadh to win back the undisputed super-middleweight titles ahead of a September clash with Terence Crawford, 37. But Canelo put on a lacklustre performance in doing so, landing just 56 punches after throwing only 152 over 12 rounds. Paul told Ariel Helwani: “I would have beat Canelo, for sure.

Access will be restricted to only ticket holders and local residents as fears loom those without a seat in the final will attempt to illegally enter the stadium.Each club has millions of fans across the globe, but there are just 15,000 tickets allocated to each team for the 53,000-capacity stadium.A 10-foot high fence has been erected around the site, with border controls reinforced by the Spanish National Police.Most read in FootballFan zones equipped with giant screens and more than 60,000 litres of beer have been set up outside the city centre to attract fans without tickets away from the security perimeter.To minimise the risk of confrontations, the two sets of fans will be kept in separate areas – 1.5 miles apart – before kickoff.Sniffer dog units have also been deployed, with rigorous searches to be constantly conducted on fans.Fans had climbed up to get the traffic lights and tore them offCredit: ReutersPolice clashing with fans earlier this year in a Europa League clash between Athletic Bilbao and AS RomaCredit: APA Tottenham Hotspur fan wearing a shirt reading ‘Bilbao 25’ poses for a photoCredit: GettyBilbao cops have launched the ‘biggest security operation ever’Credit: Dave CourtnadgeRoads have been shut off ahead of tonight’s gameCredit: Dave CourtnadgeThe Basque Government’s security minister has admitted that the clash is “the greatest security challenge” they have had to face.Bingen Zupiria revealed that the security measures being deployed surpassed the ones taken for the Tour De France.He told SER Deportivos Bilbao that “we are constantly reviewing the operation,” adding that the UEFA, UK police and the clubs involved are working together with Basque authorities to maximise safety.But this hasn’t settled the security chief’s nerves, as he confessed: “I won’t hide the fact that I’m nervous; this job generates moments of anxiety.”Cops in Bilbao also made an unusual trip to Wembley to meet with their British counterparts on how they safely secure the perimeter of the national stadium.New security measures had been introduced at the London stadium following crowd troubles in the European Championship final of 2021.Officers from the Met Police and Greater Manchester Police met with UEFA and local cops last week as they all look to avoid issues encountered at the hands of English fans at the 2022 Champions League final in Paris, as well as the 2023 final in Istanbul.UEFA has previously praised host cities like Dublin for their management of such a gargantuan event, with the Basque Government hoping Bilbao will be the latest successful host.Tottenham Hotspur fan Jangwon Son plays the trumpet ahead of the UEFA Europa League FinalCredit: GettyTottenham Hotspur enjoy the atmosphere ahead of the finalCredit: GettyTottenham Hotspur fans in the streets of BilbaoCredit: ReutersSecurity chief Zupiria added: “We’re going to need patience, citizen collaboration, and common sense.”Bilbao mayor Juan Mari Aburto said on Tuesday: “We are very excited and proud to host this game.

    Ex-Man United player, 19, was found dead in bedroom weeks after quitting football – as family pay tribute

    HEARTFELT tributes have poured in for an ex-Manchester United star who was found dead in his bedroom just weeks after quitting football.Vinicius de Oliveira Cabral de Souza, known to loved ones as Vini, tragically died aged 19 three months ago, an inquest heard.Popular footballer Vini de Souza passed away aged 19Credit: Instagram/@warringtontownfcThe young star was once on the books at Manchester UnitedCredit: JustGivingHe was found dead in his bedroom at his family home in Walkden on February 20, the court heard.Vini was born in Brazil and grew up in Portugal before moving to the UK.The young talent played for the Manchester United youth team at one point but was dropped by the Prem big shots when he was 14-years-old.Despite this setback, Vini continued playing football for the next five years and was on the books at Warrington Town FC before his death.Read More in FootballHowever, it was revealed that the teenager had quit football a few months prior to the tragedy, Bolton Coroner’s Court heard.Vini’s sister, Mayara De Souza, said that she had noticed his mood change and tried to help.She said: “He stopped doing the things that he liked to do such as football, going to the gym and seeing friends.”He started apologising about the way he treated us and we didn’t understand what he meant.Most read in Football”His best friend as well, he said the same to him and he said he doesn’t know why.”The teen’s self-esteem had also taken a hit when his acne returned after the steroid cream he had been prescribed had run out.When doctors would not prescribe more of the steroid cream, Vini bought some online from India but his sister told him not to use it.Remembering Gadi Kinda: A Football Star’s Legacy and Untimely PassingVini had booked tickets to travel to Brazil in April, the inquest heard, and was due to return on May 12 before his tragic death.Cops concluded that Vini died as a result of “self-inflicted means by hanging” after finding him dead back in February.The inquest heard that Vini stopped going out with his friends after telling his mum that he had taken drugs at a nightclub on one occasion a few months before his death. A toxicologist’s report found no trace of drugs or alcohol in Vini’s system when he died.However, Vini said that all of his friends used drugs which led to him feeling more “isolated” in the last few months of his life.Sharing the news of Vini’s death in February, Warrington Town FC said: “Scorer of the most spectacular goals, Vini was a well respected, much-loved member of the club, and his ability earned him a place training with the first team despite his young age.”He played for the first team last season in the Cheshire Senior Cup against Cheadle Town, and trained regularly with the first team, appearing in numerous pre-season friendlies over the past couple of seasons.”Assistant coroner Stephen Teesdale said he was satisfied that Vini caused his own death and recorded a conclusion of “suicide”.Addressing Vini’s sister and father at the inquest, Mr Teesdale said: “There’s nothing more you could have done. You did everything.Read More on The Sun”You spotted the problem – depression. You made a plan, you sought professional assistance from a psychotherapist.”You had a plan to take him to Brazil. There’s nothing more you could have done. He had an entirely supportive family. It was to do with how he saw the world.”You’re Not AloneEVERY 90 minutes in the UK a life is lost to suicideIt doesn’t discriminate, touching the lives of people in every corner of society – from the homeless and unemployed to builders and doctors, reality stars and footballers.It’s the biggest killer of people under the age of 35, more deadly than cancer and car crashes.And men are three times more likely to take their own life than women.Yet it’s rarely spoken of, a taboo that threatens to continue its deadly rampage unless we all stop and take notice, now.That is why The Sun launched the You’re Not Alone campaign.The aim is that by sharing practical advice, raising awareness and breaking down the barriers people face when talking about their mental health, we can all do our bit to help save lives.Let’s all vow to ask for help when we need it, and listen out for others… You’re Not Alone.If you, or anyone you know, needs help dealing with mental health problems, the following organisations provide support: More

    ‘It’s a f***ing easy win’ – Carl Froch makes emphatic prediction for Tyson Fury vs Anthony Joshua fight

    CARL FROCH did not hold back with his emphatic prediction for Tyson Fury vs Anthony Joshua. Joshua, 35, is coming off a brutal knockout loss to Daniel Dubois, 27, in September and currently finds himself nursing an elbow injury. Tyson Fury is fuelling speculation of a return to fight Anthony JoshuaCredit: GettyJoshua is currently nursing a shoulder injuryCredit: GettyFury, 36, meanwhile was beaten twice by Oleksandr Usyk, 38, last year, retiring in January only one month after his rematch defeat. But the Gypsy King has fuelled speculation of a comeback with recent training videos and Froch reckons a fight with AJ is easy money for Fury. He said on his YouTube channel: “I think AJ’s finished. Honestly, I think he’s finished and done. And the only fight potentially for him is the Fury fight.”Forget rematching Usyk, forget Dubois again, because we know what’s going to happen because we’ve already seen it.READ MORE IN BOXING”But the fight with Fury is safe enough because Fury probably would struggle to knock him out with one punch.”I’m not saying he can’t do that, he probably can, but that’s a fight I’d probably say, you know what if you’re going to come out of retirement – I know Anthony Joshua’s not retired – but if Fury’s going to come out of retirement that makes sense.”Because for me, it’s a f***ing easy win. I’m not being horrible but Tyson Fury, for me, runs rings around Anthony Joshua.”AJ’s got no confidence, he got flattened in his last fight and look at the form Anthony Joshua’s been on compared to the form that Tyson Fury’s been on.Most read in BoxingCASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO BONUSES FROM £10 DEPOSITS”Tyson Fury is naturally talented, very skilful, he’s a technician, you see him against Usyk, yes he lost but he was in the fight from round one to round 12.”It was quite a close fight, the right man won, Usyk beat him fair and square but if you’re looking at form and looking at the quality and natural ability and the talent and where he is in the mind, Tyson Fury is a massive favourite in my book going into that fight.”AJ to have surgery this week as Hearn reveals ‘encouraging’ Fury fightPromoter Eddie Hearn revealed Joshua plans to fight in 2025 – with or without Fury. Hearn told SunSport: “Next couple of months, if there’s no movement, we fight. “I mean there’s no way AJ’s not fighting this year. So who that will be? I can’t tell you. “I mean, that’s the million dollar question at all times, but I think more importantly is, do we get any news from Fury in the next four, six, eight weeks?”If we do, we’ll fight him this year. If not, we’ll fight and then maybe he comes back next year, who knows? “But I’d be lying if I said we weren’t desperate to see him return. But, at the same time we can’t just wait around and see what happens.”Carl Froch gave a brutal assessment of Joshua’s fighting futureCredit: YouTube/Froch On Fighting More
