Martial misery<\/h2>\n

Manchester United striker Anthony Martial faces up to 10 weeks on the sidelines after undergoing groin surgery.<\/p>\n

The striker, who is out of contract in the summer, has netted just once in 13 Premier League appearances this term.\u00a0<\/p>\n

A statement from United said: \u201cAnthony has completed successful surgery to address a groin complaint and will be out of action for about 10 weeks as he rehabilitates.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe wish him a speedy recovery and look forward to his return.\u201d<\/p>\n

With a new contract reportedly not on the cards, Martial is widely expected to depart Old Trafford at the end of the season.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Taxi for Hughton<\/h2>\n

Chris Hughton has been sacked after failing to guide Ghana to the Africa Cup of Nations knockout phase.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Black Stars lost their opener against Cape Verde and could only draw with Egypt and Mozambique as they collected just two points in Group B.<\/p>\n

A statement from the Ghana Football Association said: \u201cChris Hughton has been relieved of his duties with immediate effect.<\/p>\n

\"Chris
Chris Hughton lasted less than a year as Ghana\u2019s head coach<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

\u201cThe executive council has also taken a decision to dissolve the technical team of the Black Stars.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cThe GFA will in the coming days provide a roadmap on the future direction of the Black Stars.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ex-Newcastle and Brighton boss Hughton, 65, had been in the role for less than a year.<\/p>\n

Pressure mounting\u00a0<\/h2>\n
\"Aleksander
Aleksander Ceferin handed Manchester City the Champions League trophy after their triumph<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

UEFA president Aleksander Ceferin believes it was right to hand Manchester City a European ban for breaching financial regulations.<\/p>\n

The Treble winners had their punishment overturned at the Court of Arbitration for Sport in 2020 but have since been charged with 115 alleged breaches by the Premier League.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Ceferin said: \u201cWe know we were right. We wouldn\u2019t decide if we didn\u2019t think we were right.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs a trial lawyer for 25 years, I know that, sometimes, you win a case you are sure you will lose.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd sometimes, you lose a case when you\u2019re sure. You have to respect the decision of the court.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t want to speak about the case in England. But I trust the decision of our independent body was correct.\u201d<\/p>\n

Keane to return<\/h2>\n
\"Roy
Roy Keane is pondering a return to management<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Former Manchester United captain Roy Keane admits the Republic of Ireland job would appeal to him if he were to make his managerial comeback.<\/p>\n

Keane, 52, spent five years working as part of Martin O\u2019Neill\u2019s coaching staff and could be a candidate to replace the departed Stephen Kenny.<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cInternational football, I enjoyed it when I was a coach.<\/p>\n

\u201cI liked the dynamics of it where you\u2019re not in every day and it\u2019s not about bringing players in and dealing with the board every week or the academy. Yeah, that [international football] does appeal.<\/p>\n

\u201cI did enjoy the dynamics when I was coaching with Martin with the Irish team.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe had a little bit of success. When you\u2019ve had a bit of success it\u2019s brilliant, but obviously there are disappointments.\u201d<\/p>\n

Unlimited potential<\/h2>\n
\"Manchester
Manchester City are putting the pressure on champions Chelsea<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Manchester City managing director Charlotte O\u2019Neill claims the club have \u201cunlimited potential\u201d in the women\u2019s game.<\/p>\n

City, managed by Gareth Taylor, sit three points off Women\u2019s Super League leaders Chelsea after 11 games and are looking to win their first title since 2016.<\/p>\n

And O\u2019Neill believes there is no limit to what Taylor\u2019s side can achieve. She said: \u201cWinning the WSL is one of our main ambitions.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe team has unlimited potential. They are a really young side with a lot of scope to develop.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cThe pressure is only what we place on ourselves \u2014 we all have expectations and ambitions.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cI know Gareth wants to win the WSL. All I can do is give him the support and tools to get the best out of the team. It\u2019s really exciting for us to be in that race.\u201d<\/p>\n
