Bacary Sagna has branded Eric Cantona 'stupid' for fuelling the race row which engulfed the France team in the approach to Euro 2016. Cantona claimed last month that Karim Benzema, Hatem Ben Arfa and Samir Nasri had been omitted from the squad by Didier Deschamps on the basis of their North African roots. 'It's a choice, it's free speech' said Manchester City defender Sagna. 'It doesn't matter what race you are: French, North African or Chinese. The world is like this. 'He [Deschamps] is not a racist. I don't think there are any problems. 'It is stupid of him [Cantona] to say such things just before the Euros are about to start. It is bad timing. It's just such a pity there are always comments like this just before tournaments like the Euros.' Deschamps has refused to respond but is thought to be considering legal action over the comments by Cantona. The France manager left out Benzema at the direction of Noel Le Graet, president of t...

Eric Bailly has been confirmed as Jose Mourinho's first Manchester United signing after the Villarreal defender passed his medical at Old Trafford. The 22-year-old, who has only played 40 top-flight matches in his fledgling career, joins on a four-year deal subject to obtaining a work permit and cost United a fee of £30million.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic teased Manchester United supporters on Sunday by claiming a 'big announcement' is due on Tuesday. The striker is expected to sign a one-year deal at Old Trafford this week ahead of the European Championship in France. Ibrahimovic - who starred in Sweden's 3-0 win over Wales - will be given time away from the international camp by manager Erik Hamren this week. The 34-year-old is set to unveil a new clothing line at 5pm on Tuesday, but could also be ready to reveal his anticipated switch to United. Any news on his move in conjunction with a clothing launch would represent maximum exposure for the latter, with Ibrahimovic thought to have been offered wages in excess of £200,000 a week. 'There will be a big announcement on June 7. It will be this summer's big bomb,' Ibrahimovic told Swedish television. 'It feels good, feels better than good. A lot will happen with this news, so hopefully you'll all enjoy.' When asked if he had sorted ...

Former Chocolate City rapper, Milli has come out to tell his own part of the story. He said; It’s no longer news that the time has come for me to move on from Chocolate City, but until now, no one has heard my side of the story. It’s been a long journey – one year in 2014 with M.I. writing and co-producing the Chairman album, and another year in 2015 being signed with Loopy and Choc City, writing and co-producing the TICBN album, and working on individual Choc City artist projects. I have a lot of love for my CC family, especially for Koker and Dice, but for me, things didn’t turn out how I thought they would at all… I was getting held back all the time, I wasn’t allowed to put out music like I wanted to, and it was getting really hard to be myself… I’m not going to say much out there, about what really happened, that’s why I created this private Facebook group. I don’t want to do interviews and talk about what happened, I wouldn’t even want to write all of it down because it’s quite p...
