The ex-central midfielder was admitted to hospital following a downturn in his health which required an operation on his stomach on Thursday, with club president Josep Maria Bartomeu confirming the trainer was "fighting" for his life.

A former government official in Oyo state has countered the claim that a property with decomposing corpses and emaciated people discovered in the Soka area of Ibadan was a den used by kidnappers and ritual killers. It would be recalled that on the 22nd of March, a shocking discovery of an Ibadan Forest of Horror was made. Ayodele Adigun, a former secretary to the state government, said the property was an abandoned government-run camp for the mentally challenged. Writing in the Guardian Newspaper, Mr. Adigun alleged that the premises discovered last March was an abandoned sewage treatment plant converted to a camp for lunatics abducted from the streets of Ibadan by the Oyo State government as part of a campaign to beautify Ibadan. The news of the discovery of the alleged kidnappers den and its horrid condition filled the sensibilities of Nigerians with horror. Over 20 decomposing corpses and horribly emaciated people, some in the throes of death, were found at the den when a group of c

Manchester United have sacked manager David Moyes with immediate effect after owners the Glazer family finally lost patience with the Scot. The 50-year-old, who created a host of unwanted records during his brief stint at Old Trafford, becomes the first United manager to be dismissed since Ron Atkinson in 1986. Announcing Moyes' departure on their official Twitter account, United added: "The club would like to place on record its thanks for the hard work, honesty and integrity he brought to the role." Moyes had endured a torrid campaign in charge of the reigning Premier League champions, with Sunday's abject 2-0 loss to former club Everton guaranteeing that the Red Devils will miss out on a place in the Champions League next season. Defeat at Goodison Park was their 11th of the season - just one fewer than relegation battling West Brom - and left the club languishing in seventh place in the table. Sunday's result marked the first time both the Toffees and Liverp
