Football: Cardiff Citys Sala missing after plane disappears over English Channel

Football: Cardiff Citys Sala missing after plane disappears over English Channel

LONDON (REUTERS) - Cardiff City’s new soccer star Emiliano Sala was on board a light aircraft that disappeared en route to the Welsh capital where he was to join up with the team, France’s civil aviation authority said on Tuesday (Jan 22).
Argentine Sala was flying from the French city of Nantes to Cardiff when the plane lost radar contact off the English Channel island Guernsey late on Monday.
Rescue aircraft and boats scoured more than 1,600 sq km of sea for the single-engine Piper Malibu on Tuesday.
Guernsey police said a number of floating objects had been seen in the water but they were unable to confirm whether any were from the missing aircraft.
As night fell, search operations were suspended. Police said they will resume at sunrise on Wednesday.
Forward Sala, 28, joined Premier League strugglers Cardiff from FC Nantes last week for a club record fee of about 17 million euros (S$26 million). He had played in France since 2012.
“We expected Emiliano to arrive last night into Cardiff and today was due to be his first day with the team,” club chief executive officer Ken Choo said in a statement. “We continue to pray for positive news.”
Tuesday’s training session was called off.
“The management and the whole club are staying hopeful and the whole FC Nantes family is praying for Emiliano Sala and the other passengers to be found safe and sound,” Nantes said in a statement.
British authorities contacted airfields along the coast to check if the plane had made an unplanned landing, but there was no sign it had, Guernsey police said.
The plane had been cruising at 5,000 feet when the pilot requested to descend to a lower altitude on passing Guernsey. It lost radar contact at 2,300 feet, the police said.
John Fitzgerald, chief executive of Channel Islands Air Search, said: “If they are wearing the right dry suits or they got into a life raft, then the probability is not too bad.
“If they are in the water without any protection, the water is really too cold at the moment for any form of survival beyond an hour or so,” Fitzgerald told Sky TV.
Sala’s father Horacio told Argentine TV channel C5N: “I didn’t know anything because I’m away from home, I’m a truck driver. A friend who saw it on TV told me. I’m in despair.” 
Julio Muller, the mayor of Progreso, the small town in the farming province of Santa Fe where Sala grew up, told Clarin online: “The town is in shock. The only thing we were talking about was his transfer.” 
Daniel Rivero, the president of Sala’s first club, San Martin de Progreso, told radio LT9 he was “hoping for some kind of a miracle.” 


Sala scored 12 goals for Nantes this season.
France’s soccer federation postponed Nantes’s French Cup last-32 game against Entente Sannois-Saint Gratien that was scheduled for Wednesday.
Sala on Monday tweeted a photo of himself bidding farewell to his Nantes team mates, saying. “The last one. Ciao @FCNantes.”

Football: Emery confirms Ramsey has played last Arsenal game

Football: Emery confirms Ramsey has played last Arsenal game

LONDON (AFP) - Unai Emery confirmed on Wednesday (May 1) that injured Wales midfielder Aaron Ramsey has made his last appearance for Arsenal ahead of his move to Juventus Ramsey has already agreed to make a lucrative switch to Italian champion Juventus when his Arsenal contract expires at the end of the season.
The 28-year-old suffered a hamstring injury during the second leg of Arsenal's Europa League quarter-final victory over Napoli and has now been ruled out for the rest of the season.
Emery's side host Valencia in the Europa League semi-final first leg on Thursday, having lost all three games without Ramsey since he was forced off in Naples.
But, even if Arsenal reach the final on May 29, Emery conceded the game would come too quickly for Ramsey to be involved.
Asked if there was any chance of Ramsey playing one last game for Arsenal, Emery told reporters on Wednesday: "At the moment we are only in the semi-final, and secondly the prognosis is not okay for this date.
"He is important for us. We cannot use him and the danger is always there for a forward player like that.
"We have players who can play in that position, but he was in a good moment when he had this injury.
"For me it was a good experience to work with every player and with him especially, because he can transmit his energy and he showed me his heart is red with Arsenal.
"I wanted to enjoy with him. I said to him one month ago that I wanted to do something important in his last matches with us at the moment - maybe he can come back in the future."

'SO IMPORTANT'


Ramsey, who won three FA Cups with Arsenal, is expected to be fit in time to start pre-season with Juventus, but his absence is a blow to the Gunners' bid to qualify for next season's Champions League either by winning the Europa League or finishing in the Premier League's top four.
Arsenal are planning to hold a guard of honour for both the midfielder and team-mate retiring goalkeeper Petr Cech after Sunday's match against Brighton at the Emirates Stadium - their final Premier League home game of the season.
Laurent Koscielny has played alongside Ramsey since joining from Lorient in 2010 and, in a jibe at previous Arsenal players who have left the club during that time, the Gunners defender hailed his team-mate's attitude since his move to Juventus was announced.
"Of course he played so may years here, so important for the club and the players because every season we start the season and we have new players, and I think he gives a lot for the adaptation of the new players," he said.
"What I like about Aaron is that, we know he signs for Juventus, but he is still a professional and always fights for the club and for the team.
"Sometimes you have players who have stopped fighting for this team, but I think he has loved this club and that is why he stayed at 100 per cent for us. It shows a great mentality and character."

Sanchez among six on Solskjaer's clear-out list

Sanchez among six on Solskjaer's clear-out list

LONDON • Ole Gunnar Solskjaer could discard as many as six players, including Alexis Sanchez, this summer as the Manchester United manager targets a right-back and central defender to build a squad capable of challenging for the Premier League title next season.
The summer window will be the Norwegian's first as the permanent boss and he is willing to sell Sanchez, 30, who has proved a failure with only three league goals since joining from Arsenal in January last year in a swop deal involving Henrikh Mkhitaryan.
The Chile international's salary of £350,000 (S$473,670) a week may prove an obstacle to any potential transfer, though, with the forward's contract running until 2022.
United's broad transfer policy is to bring in three players and sell three each summer, but that number may be doubled in both instances given that the club are some way behind their rivals.
It would represent the biggest turnover of players since 2015, when Louis van Gaal sold six senior players and allowed Tom Cleverley and goalkeeper Anders Lindegaard to leave on free transfers, and bought six full internationals.
Marcos Rojo and Matteo Darmian will be sold.
Antonio Valencia, 33, the club captain, has also been told that his contract, which expires in June, will not be renewed.
Juan Mata and Ander Herrera are also out of contract in the summer and the club are not close to agreeing deals with either player.
Although Herrera, 29, has become a regular under Solskjaer, United are seeking a top-class central midfielder as a regular alongside Paul Pogba, whom the manager rates as key to a credible title challenge next season.
Atletico Madrid's Saul Niguez is among their top targets, with the Spain international, 24, wanting to move to England this summer.
United will not allow goalkeeper David de Gea to leave this summer even though he has 14 months left on his deal and Real Madrid are interested in signing him.
Despite having been in negotiations for 18 months, United are confident that the Spain international, 28, will commit to the club.
They also want to sign a right-back, at least one centre-half, a forward and one or two midfielders, depending on Herrera's decision.
Ideally, Solskjaer would like to buy more British players and develop a home-grown core to his team, just like his former manager Alex Ferguson used to.
Declan Rice, the West Ham midfielder, is on his wish list, as is Callum Hudson-Odoi, the Chelsea forward, who has 14 months left on his contract.
Jadon Sancho, the Borussia Dortmund winger, has also been linked while Aaron Wan-Bissaka, the 21-year-old Crystal Palace and England Under-21 defender, is being considered for the right-back slot.

Football: Chelsea boss Maurizio Sarri charged with misconduct over behaviour at home game against Burnley

Football: Chelsea boss Maurizio Sarri charged with misconduct over behaviour at home game against Burnley

(REUTERS) - Chelsea manager Maurizio Sarri has been charged with misconduct for his behaviour during Monday's (April 22) 2-2 English Premier League draw with Burnley, the English Football Association said.
The Chelsea coach was sent to the stands by referee Kevin Friend after becoming embroiled in a scuffle among players on the touchline in the dying moments of the game at Stamford Bridge.
Sarri did not carry out his post-match media duties, sending assistant coach Gianfranco Zola to fill in for him instead.
Zola told reporters at the time that Sarri had sought to get his players out of the scuffle but the referee had "misinterpreted" his intentions and that the Chelsea manager had been offended by a comment from the Burnley bench.
"Maurizio Sarri has been charged with misconduct in relation to his behaviour in the 94th minute of Monday's Premier League fixture between Chelsea and Burnley," the FA said in a statement on Wednesday (April 24).
The Chelsea manager has until 1700 GMT on Friday (midnight Saturday Singapore time) to responded to the charge, the governing body added.

Football: Gonzalo Higuain must earn permanent Chelsea deal: Maurizio Sarri

Football: Gonzalo Higuain must earn permanent Chelsea deal: Maurizio Sarri

LONDON (AFP) - Chelsea manager Maurizio Sarri is confident Gonzalo Higuain can be the short-term solution to his side's need for goals and urged the Argentinian to earn a permanent move to the Premier League.
Higuain sealed a loan move until the end of the season on Wednesday (Jan 23) from parent club Juventus having spent a troubled first half of the campaign on loan at AC Milan.
Sarri has fond memories of his one previous season together with Higuain when the striker scored a record 36 Serie A goals in a single campaign.
Now he hopes Higuain can reignite Chelsea's spluttering attack and earn a long-term switch to Stamford Bridge in the process.
"For sure, he is one of the best strikers in my career," said Sarri, who will have to cope without Higuain for Thursday's League Cup semi-final, second leg against Tottenham.
"It's up to him, I think. He has to score, first of all. I think that for a long-term contract, he has to do very well.
"He has to play. He has to score. He has to be useful for the team."
After an excellent start to Sarri's reign in charge, Chelsea have stumbled since losing for the first time under the Italian against Spurs at the end of November.
A run of four defeats in 11 Premier League games has coincided with Sarri's decision to move Eden Hazard into the middle of his front three with the Belgian's impact limited.
Higuain has struggled since being forced out of Juventus in the summer by the arrival of Cristiano Ronaldo, scoring just eight times in 22 appearances for Milan.
Sarri, though, believes he is the best proven goalscorer Chelsea could have added this month.
"Higuain usually is able to score 25 or 30 goals every season," he added.
"As I told you before, in the market in January it's very difficult to secure a very important striker.
"Gonzalo was in a situation that we could try to buy him, and so we decided to try for Higuain."
However, Sarri explained that decision was in part forced by Alvaro Morata's desire to leave Chelsea.
The Spaniard cost a then club record £60 million (S$106.6 million) when he signed from Real Madrid in July 2017, but now seems set for a loan move to Atletico Madrid to make way for Higuain.
"I think that Morata is a very good player. I think that Morata has the characteristics for playing in my team," added Sarri.
"But Morata, one month ago, said he wanted to play in another team. So it was really very difficult for him to give us the 100 per cent for his mental situation, I think.
"From the physical and technical point of view, he is a very good player and suitable for my football. But the situation changed in the last month. So we needed to change."

Football: Belgium overcome Courtois howler to sink Russia

Football: Belgium overcome Courtois howler to sink Russia

BRUSSELS (REUTERS) - Captain Eden Hazard scored twice for Belgium to spare the blushes of goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois and secure a 3-1 victory over Russia in their Euro 2020 Group I qualifier at the King Baudouin Stadium on Thursday (March 21).
Courtois allowed Russia a soft equaliser after his error gifted a goal to Denis Cheryshev, but Belgium claimed a deserved victory when Youri Tielemans opened the scoring with his first international goal and Hazard added two more, one from the penalty spot.
Striker Michy Batshuayi was asked to lead the line in the absence of the injured Romelu Lukaku, while the Hazard brothers, Eden and Thorgan, played together for the third time in a national team shirt.
Belgium led on 15 minutes when Timothy Castagne's pass fed Tielemans on the edge of the box and as Russia's defensive line opened up, the midfielder fired a low shot past goalkeeper Guilherme Marinato.
But the lead lasted barely a minute as a horror error from Courtois gifted Cheryshev the equaliser.
The keeper dallied in possession following a back-pass and when pressed into action, passed the ball straight to Cheryshev on the edge of the box who finished into an empty net.
Batshuayi came close to restoring the lead when the Hazard brothers led a breakaway from a Russian corner and when the ball fell to the striker in the box, his shot beat Marinato but not defender Georgiy Dzhikiya on the goalline.
Belgium, World Cup semi-finalists last year, scored their second just before the break when Eden Hazard was fouled in the box by Yuri Zhirkov and stepped up to convert the spot-kick and give his side a 2-1 lead at halftime.
Batshuayi should have added a third for the home side when he was left unmarked and turned a low cross on to the post from eight yards out.
Skipper Hazard netted the third when he picked up the loose ball in the box after Batshuayi's shot was blocked and the visitors finished the game with 10 following a late red card for Aleksandr Golovin.
Earlier, Cyprus stormed to the top of the Group I standings with a 5-0 victory over San Marino in Nicosia.
Striker Pieros Sotiriou converted two penalties to go with goals from Ioannis Kousoulos, Georgios Efrem and Konstantinos Laifis.
