THE HEATED rivalry between Manchester United star Lisandro Martinez and Fulham ace Adama Traore has been extended.

Martinez, 27, and Traore, 29, locked horns on Sunday’s Premier League clash between United and the Cottagers at Craven Cottage.

That was the second meeting between the two teams after August’s Prem opener at Old Trafford that saw Man Utd prevailing with a score of 1-0 thanks to Joshua Zirkzee’s winner.

Martinez and Traore posed as a key flashpoint following some intense challenges on the pitch.

And at some point the centre-back’s 5’9″ frame somehow managed to overpower his heavyweight Fulham opponent off the ball in the first half.

The Argentina international then went on to rub it in with a cheeky statement during a post-match interview.

Martinez said: “I sent him back to the gym. I learned from the first one where he killed me, I killed him back. He is difficult to play against and I learned from the first situation.”

Traore caught wind of the Argentine’s comments and hit back on social media.

The winger posted a pic of himself training and tagged Martinez with an ominous warning and a winky-face emoji.

Traore posted: “Don’t worry we will meet again.”

The ex-Wolves star kept his promise as he got the better out of some more intense challenges with Martinez, who at some point went in two footed on his much larger opponent.

The Spaniard took a swipe out of the defender on social media with a cheeky snap.

It showed the forward walking back to his half with the Man Utd ace left on the floor writhing in pain following a clash between them.

Traore posted the following casual caption on Instagram: “Tough loss. We deserved more, but we will keep working hard and improving.”

Nevertheless, Martinez got the last laugh on the latest chapter of their saga as he scored the winner on 78 minutes to lead United to an important 1-0 victory in west London.

A BEAUTICIAN body-shamed by her millionaire dad for years has won a £125,000 payout to spend on a boob job after being cut from his will.

Pirate radio “legend” Roger Howe died aged 55 in March 2020 after falling from a window.

Her dad Roger wrote his only child out of his will[/caption]

He left behind a £1,447,000 fortune, part of which was tied up in his radio engineering company BW Broadcast FM, but left his only child Jenna Howe out of his will.

A court heard Roger had a “toxic” relationship with his daughter and consistently “belittled” her when she was growing up.

The broadcaster also “called her names” and taunted her in a “nasty” way about her weight.

As a result, the 37-year-old developed bulimia and body dysmorphia and later became estranged from her dad.

When he made his last will in 2017, Roger left his fortune to his mum, Rosina, his sister, Tina Tucker, and his two nephews, Ross and Jamie Tucker.

The dad wrote Jenna out of the will and was “adamant” that she shouldn’t receive a penny – branding her “lazy, grabbing and bad to my parents”.

But Jenna has now been awarded £125,000 after taking the battle to Central London County Court.

The sum includes a £75 weekly “maintenance” payment for the next ten years to help Jenna get by and help wipe her debts and pay for replacement breast implants.

The court was told Jenna’s life had been ruined by Roger’s heartless neglect and cruelty throughout her childhood.

She suffered with drug addiction and is currently “destitute”, it was said.

Judge Mark Raeside said: “Throughout her life, she has been self-conscious about her body and I am quite satisfied that this should be paid for by the estate.

“She has had a body problem ever since she was a young child”.

The court heard that during Jenna’s childhood and teens, Roger consistently “belittled” his only child and taunted her about her weight.

On occasions, the “disciplinarian” dad would weigh his daughter in front of their lodger and even when she developed an eating disorder, he continued to “pick on her”.

Jenna said: “He was really nasty about my weight and talked about me calling me names, and was horrible to me.”

The court heard Jenna suffered with body dysmorphia, which caused her to get breast implants.

Her lawyer James McKean argued she should be awarded the cash to cover the cost of more surgery to replace these implants.

Jenna also told how her life “spiralled out of control” after she began taking drugs and that her dad did little to help her get back on track.

She said she had tried to reconcile with her dad over the years as she “longed for a relationship” and was badly rocked by his death.

Giving his ruling, the judge said: “The view I have come to is that, in the exercise of my discretion, a lump sum award should be made in her favour from the estate to meet Jenna’s present and future financial needs in light of her mental condition, which has driven most of those needs.”

He described Jenna’s finances as “precarious,” saying she still has heavy debts left over from a previous court clash with her relatives.

The effects of her mental conditions have made work almost impossible, the judge ruled as he said she now deserves a weekly income of £75 to keep her head above water.

He added: “She is only just getting by and has a right to maintenance.

“This is a case where she wishes to improve herself and this will no doubt help.”

Roger Howe was known as a technical genius in the field of radio transmitting equipment and was just eight years old when he built his own transistor radio.

By 15, he was building complex AM and FM transmitters, which he continued to develop throughout his time in school and into the beginning of his career.

At just 16 years old, he was making rigs for London pirate radio stations, including JFM, a specialist jazz funk station.

In his later years, he used his expertise to build a successful business which exported equipment all over the world and made him a millionaire by the time of his death.

HERMINIA HELL

Flight tracker Flightaware shows Heathrow has cancelled 26 flights, while another 37 are delayed, affecting up to 4,000 passengers.

A landslip near Darwen, Lancashire, means all National Rail lines are blocked, with trains between Bolton and Blackburn cancelled.

It comes after Calum Carmichael, 19, and Kacper Dudek, 20, were killed by falling trees.

And a 73-year-old British sailor remains missing at sea after his yacht disappeared in stormy weather off the coast of Lacanau on the southwest French coast on Saturday.

Meanwhile, nearly 300,000 homes were left without power over the weekend in Northern Ireland, with suppliers receiving two months’ worth of calls about issues in just two days.

A series of yellow warnings for wind and rain have been issued for large parts of England and Wales with more than 40 flood warnings in place.

After a Met Office warning for rain over parts of Wales and central, southern and northern England, ran until 6am today and there was little respite with much of the same area under a 24-hour warning for strong and gusty winds from the same time.

A warning for periods of heavy rain that could cause some flooding of roads and properties was in place for the West Midlands and most of Wales until 11.59pm on Monday with the Met Office predicting 20mm to 40mm to fall quite widely and 50mm to 70mm on higher ground.

Flooding saw stretches of the A36 and A303 closed in Devon and Wiltshire overnight, while National Rail said services were running normally between Taunton and Castle Cary after flooding.

Most of the 40 flood warnings, where flooding is expected, issued by the Environment Agency cover the south west and south coast, the two warnings issued by the Scottish Environment Protection Agency.

Scotland is recovering from the effects of Storm Eowyn.

ScotRail said engineers had made “great progress” in removing debris and repairing damage, but several lines were unlikely to reopen for the start of services on Monday.

The Largs to Adrossan line will not reopen on Monday after an overhead gantry was brough down by a falling tree.

Avanti West Coast said services to and from Glasgow and Edinburgh had resumed, but warned of late starts and possible delays on Scottish routes.

A WOMAN has issued a stark warning after a 20-minute sunbed session left her with the skin on her face peeling off.

Natalia Armstrong took to TikTok to show the horrific aftermath of laying on a sunbed back to front for a whopping 20 minutes.

TIKTOK/@nataliaarmstrong82

Natalia claimed she felt totally ‘fine’ after the 20-minute sunbed session – but it all changed just two days later[/caption]

The young woman has since taken to TikTok to raise awareness about sunbeds after her face was left peeling[/caption]

The young brunette, who urged others to not make the same mistake as she had, explained that she had put her face where her feet should’ve been – and her toes under the facial tubes.

Warning fellow beauty buffs about the dangers, Natalia said that the UV lights by the feet area are ”stronger than it is on the facial tanner”.

Although at first Natalia felt completely ”fine” and didn’t have any obvious signs of a nasty sunburn, it all changed just two days later, she recalled in the shocking video.

”My sisters woke up me up and were like ‘Look at your face, Nat. Please, just look at your face’.”

Sharing a snap of her red and tight skin just 48 hours after going on the sunbed, Natalia told her 141k followers that she ”couldn’t even smile properly”.

”It was really tight, I couldn’t smile, it felt weird. I thought ‘Oh my god, I’m gonna scar, I’m really gonna hurt myself […] after I’ve just paid £7,000 in Turkey for my teeth‘.”

However, the worse was yet to come, after one of Natalia’s friends who works at the hospital took one look at her finger and strongly advised her to get checked by a doctor.

In total, Natalia, whose fingers had ballooned up after the 20-minute sunbed session, had to had four rings ”chopped off” and her index finger developed an infection.

”They just kept on dashing loads of gunk out. They did clean it all and out this bandage on.”

”I am damaged – but it can be fixed,” said Natalia who added she was ”very lucky” that some of her friends had told her about laying upside down method – and she decided to give it a go too.

”So, me being me, I did it like everyone else does it. I didn’t know this was gonna happen to my face – otherwise, I wouldn’t have never done it.”

Urging everyone to spread awareness, Natalia said: ”Share it, repost it. If you know somebody who does this, please tell them not to.”

She added: ”I did never think this was a thing – until it happened.”

Sunbed risks

Sunbeds have long been linked to skin cancer and have even been banned in countries like Brazil and Australia.

According to the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), there is significant evidence to show that using tanning beds causes melanoma.

They report that sunbeds increase the risk of skin cancer by up to 20 per cent, and also state that they have no positive benefits to our health.

Sharing her expertise, Carol Cooper, Sun Doctor, said: ”Let’s be clear about sunbeds. It’s not just ‘some’ experts that say they’re bad for your skin. It’s almost all of them.

”Actually, anyone who’s ever used a sunbed is at least 20% more likely to develop malignant melanoma, the deadliest skin cancer.

”UV rays damage the DNA in skin cells, so they’re more likely to mutate into cancer. You don’t even have to burn for it to happen.”

‘Please, just don’t use them at all’

Since being posted on the platform, the video has gone viral, racking up a staggering 1.2million views in just three days.

Many social media users insisted that Natalia shouldn’t have gone on a sunbed in the first place, let alone for that long.

One person wrote: ”I didn’t think sunbeds were a thing in 2025. It horrifies me I went on them in the 90’s!! They’re so dangerous.”

Someone else chimed in, sharing their horrific experience: ”Please just don’t use them at all, from someone who now has scars everywhere due to skin cancer removals.”

A third had seen the clip just in time and wrote: ”This is seriously a sign sent from the universe cause someone literally told me yesterday to go on it upside down to tan faster!

”[I] was gonna do that today & just seen this! Hope you recover quickly.”

”Sunbeds all together are a huge risk. I spent 6 months doing 9 minutes a week. Because of that I developed skin cancer,” a viewer wrote.

”sorry but common sense tells you that 20 mins on a sunbed is stupid, but hope you get better soon,” another added.

EXPERTS have revealed the best time to book your flights this year for a summer holiday, depending on which city you are heading to.

The recent study, conducted by Which?, looked at when the cheapest flights could be found for 22 cities, both short and long haul.

Long-haul flights were also included, with the best time to book New York being June for an August break[/caption]

Some destinations are best to book at short notice if wanting to visit during the August summer holidays.

For example, the cheapest deal for Faro in Portugal was found just five weeks before travelling – meaning booking around July.

Similarly, Athens and Budapest were cheapest six weeks out for August, so around late June.

But if wanting to visit some Spanish cities, you will need to be booking much further in advance.

For example, the cheapest flights to Seville were found 25 weeks ahead of travel – so you would need to book your August holiday around March.

Other Spanish destinations you would need to book around May for the best deal include Valencia (12 weeks ahead), Barcelona (13 weeks ahead) and Majorca (13 weeks ahead).

The European destination you’d need to book furthest in advance is Paris, with a huge 26 weeks ahead of August being the cheapest time (so booking by the end of next month).

Other European destination booking times include:

• Amsterdam – 15 weeks
• Berlin – 24 weeks
• Lisbon – 16 weeks
• Prague – 19 weeks
• Tenerife – 10 weeks

Wanting to go further afield? The best time for a bargain New York summer is when it is booked around June, with a similar time for Bangkok flights.

But if you’re wanting the absolute cheapest flight, you will have to ditch the summer holidays altogether – all but three of the short-haul destinations were found to be the cheapest in January.

Lisbon had the cheapest fares in December, while Nice was cheapest in November and Majorca was cheapest in March.

Naomi Leach, Deputy Editor of Which? Travel, said: “Our research threw up some surprising results and suggests some holidaymakers could save significant sums of money by targeting the right time to book their flights.

“For those looking for a bargain trip, our findings show January is generally the cheapest time to fly short haul, as long as you don’t mind the cold weather.

“It is worth setting up flight alerts with Google Flights or Skyscanner to track the best prices for your desired destination to find the best time to book a great deal.” 

Another recent study by Which? found the most affordable destination for holiday packages.

The study looked at 5,590 package holidays on sale with three of the UK’s biggest tour operators – easyJet holidays, TUI and Jet2holidays.

Dalaman in Turkey was found to be the cheapest, with a seven-night package with return flights around £859pp on average.

Also cheap was Agadir in Morocco, costing around £889pp for a similar holiday package deal.

Here’s another way to find cheap flights, according to a flight attendant.

And we’ve revealed how to always find TUI’s cheapest flights.

IF you’re watching Love Island and have spent more time wondering how Gabby Allen’s skin looks so flawless than thinking about her relationship with Casey O’Gorman, you’ve come to the right place.

The blonde beauty has recently left viewers open-mouthed with her glowing skin and luckily for you, here we can reveal the secret behind the All Stars icon’s gorgeous look – and don’t worry, it’s super affordable. 

The fitness enthusiast and personal trainer, who has one million followers on Instagram and is currently coupled up with Casey O’Gorman, 28, has been open about suffering from bad breakouts in the past.

But to ensure her skin looks camera ready, the Scouse stunner swears by a bargain buy, which you can nab from Boots now for less than £4.

Prior to entering the Love Island villa for the second time, Gabby took to social media to share her beauty secret. 

Posting on her Instagram stories, the reality star asked: “Is anyone else having a nightmare with their skin recently?”

She then confessed: “I keep getting under-the-skin spots but then dry patches as well.”

But fortunately, Gabby discovered just the product to help – and it’ll cost you just £3.49.

The content creator tried out Garnier Moisture Bomb Tissue Mask, which is said to ‘help to rebalance the appearance of your skin for a clearer looking complexion – all in just 15 minutes.’

As she applied the Hyaluronic Acid and Green Tea sheet mask to her face, she told her followers: “I’m hoping this face mask will sort my life out.

“I used the charcoal one which I loved, so let’s see if I’ve been rejuvenated after this one.”

The gorgeous star then told her fans how the sheet mask is supposed to be hydrating and rebalancing for the skin, as she continued: “Green tea is great for reducing inflammation [and] mild dermatology conditions.”

Not only did she note that she suffers from eczema, but she then added: “Hyaluronic acid is great for dry skin and appearance of fine lines – winner!”

Ten minutes later, Gabby returned to the camera looking fresh-faced and glowing – and it’s safe to say she was thoroughly impressed.

She beamed: “Face is definitely looking a little bit better and fresher after that face mask, thank god.”

The Garnier Moisture Bomb Sheet Masks, which are dermatologically tested and easy to apply, are said to leave skin looking clearer whilst helping to reduce the appearance of pores.  

Beauty fans beam

But it’s not just Gabby who loves the Garnier face mask, as shoppers have eagerly flocked to the Boots website to share their rave reviews of the cheap product, which now has an average rating of 4.4 out of five. 

One person said: “I love these masks. They really help with dry and dehydrated skin and leave my skin so nice and moisturised. 

Gives you an amazing glow, everyone passes comments on my skin after use

Boots shopper

“No strong fragrance or nasties. My collection of these is getting out of hand tbh I always keep it topped up!”

Another added: “I used this mask and my skin was instantly hydrated and looked glowing after the 15 minutes.” 

A third commented: “I often find myself buying this mask, it helps my skin so much! Leaves it feeling soft and hydrated for a while.”

Whilst someone else chimed in: “Great mask. Really hydrates the skin, I always use after days at the beach or before nights out, gives you an amazing glow, everyone passes comments on my skin after use.”

SCROLLING through the news, Denise Ohnona, 44, was gobsmacked to read that she’s officially the most beautiful woman in the world, but there’s a twist.

Stunning mum-of-two Denise works as a lookalike for Kate Moss, who recently was found to have the most physically perfect face, according to the Golden Ratio theory.

Kate has been found to be the most ‘beautiful woman in the world’ thanks to the golden ratio[/caption]

Known as the Divine Proportion, this ancient Greek concept is a natural marvel, appearing everywhere from the blooming petals of flowers to the spiralling shells on the seashore.

Despite having worked as a lookalike for the glamorous supermodel since 2017, Denise admitted she still struggles with self-esteem.

The blonde beauty told Fabulous: “For me, it is so so flattering that I even get to be a lookalike for Kate Moss. 

“Personally I’ve never thought I was beautiful. 

“I didn’t like how I looked different. 

“I had wide set eyes and still to this day I don’t think I’m beautiful.”

Her uncanny resemblance to Kate, who recently starred in the Victoria’s Secret Show, has unsurprisingly caused her to have a lot of attention from men.

Although she is happily engaged to DJ fiance Rob of 11 years, who she met on Match.com, Denise admitted she gets numerous people sliding into her DMs – with some sending X-rated requests.

The proud Liverpudlian continued: “I’m in magazines like TV, doing shows, photo shoots. I might be dressed up at events, mingling with people. I do get propositions a lot.

“I’ve been offered money to go on dates. I think it was like a few thousand [pounds] actually.

“I’ve been asked to sell pictures. I’ve been asked to do porn and I was like hell no, never gonna happen. 

“It takes a lot of stepping outside that comfort zone to be a lookalike. It’s not easy. 

“People think, ‘oh, you live your best life and it’s glamorous’, and it’s not. It’s fun, don’t get me wrong.”

One of the most “bizarre” jobs she did was a shoot in Aldi, and she had numerous shoppers mistake her for the supermodel.

She added: “I had people coming up to me telling me how they’ve been a fan of me the whole life, how their mum was a fan of me, how their mum named them after Kate Moss, and taking photos with me.

“I never felt so bad in my whole life doing that.

“I didn’t even know what I was doing like. I was just told to be at this job for whatever time it was.”

Plastic surgery pressure

While being a doppelganger for a supermodel would be many people’s dream, Denise admitted she sometimes feels the pressure to look a certain way.

Denise insisted that she hasn’t had any work done apart from Botox, but she does sometimes get cruel comments that make her wonder about her looks.

She explained: “Even I have felt pressure to go get things done because someone will say something about you, and then [you think] ‘do I need to fix that?’

“You get hammered as a female for getting older, and I think this is what forces people to do drastic things.

“Kate still looks like herself and I think that is an achievement in itself. She still looks good.”

I’ve been offered money to go on dates. I think it was like a few thousand [pounds] actually

Denise Ohnona

The lookalike, who has racked up 133,000 followers on her @iamnotkatemoss Instagram page, said she takes “so much hate”, but thankfully overall most people are positive.

She shared: “You can get criticised from head to toe about how old you look, or you’re too skinny, or you’re too ugly, or, you know, like you’re sad, you get so much abuse online. 

“I’m in a place where I’m fine with that. I can take it, but I think you’ve got to be thick skinned to put yourself out there as a lookalike, because someone will have something to say.

“But the majority are really cute and nice and supportive.”

Bullied at school

Despite the accolade of looking nearly identical to the “most beautiful woman in the world”, Denise admitted that she was “shy” in school and people teased her for her unusual features.

She added: “I didn’t really enjoy school. I was very shy and not confident. Never felt pretty at all.

For me, it is so so flattering that I even get to be a lookalike for Kate Moss. Personally I’ve never thought I was beautiful

Denise Ohnona

“I used to get laughed at and there was one guy – and it always stuck with me  – I got called Kettle Face, and I never understood why.

“People used to say, I look weird because my eyes were really far apart.

“But you know Kate has the same wide, set eyes, and the high cheekbones, and that wasn’t normal.”

A-list lifestyle

Thankfully she’s had the last laugh, as working as a Kate Moss double has opened up numerous doors for the stylish mum, and seen her jet around the world for photoshoots and promotional gigs.

She explained: “I’ve had some fabulous experiences where I’m like ‘is this how the other half live?’

“I’ve experienced some of the most wonderful places and treatments, and Michelin Star dinners and things that I would never get to do as me, because I’m quite a basic stripped-down human being in my own life.”

Denise (pictured) said most people are positive on social media but she does experience some trolls[/caption]

However, Denise’s lookalike job, which she does full-time, allegedly hasn’t gone down too well Kate Moss herself, who she says she’s never met.

Denise explained: “I’ve had a slight indication, well, it was one of her friends actually messaged me, and it kind of indicated that they don’t find it funny, and they’re not happy with it. 

“So I was like, ‘oh, I’m really disappointed to hear that.’”

The mum added: “I never wanna step on her toes or do anything to upset her.

“I mean, lookalikes is an industry. It goes back a long time, and it’s like it’s a job to me. 

You get hammered as a female for getting older, and I think this is what forces people to do drastic things

Denise Ohnona

“I’m not trying to be famous or rich and I never am going to be. It’s just a job. 

“So I was hoping Kate would be quite fun about it.

“It’s cool to have a doppelganger. I think everyone’s got one. 

“And I never see myself as Kate – she’s like a whole other iconic supermodel level – I just happen to resemble [her] a little bit. 

“It’s given me opportunities that for years I wouldn’t take but then I’m glad that I did, because it’s helped me as a person. I’m definitely more confident.”

Love life confessions

One person who loves the Kate comparison is partner Rob.

She added: “He finds me really attractive and sexy, and I think he thinks it’s cool. He does laugh a bit because we’re out and people will go ‘oh my god’.

“I think he’s quite entertained by it.”

Denise continued: “I get compliments constantly from him, even 11 years later. He still fancies me like a lot.

“Sometimes he’ll make jokes about dating me and Kate at the same time and stuff, and I’m like ‘shut up.’

“I do wonder if I was ever single, I wouldn’t want to go out with someone who was a Kate Moss fan, it would be far too weird.”

Public reaction

Despite her kids being “not interested” and “embarrassed” by Denise’s Kate modelling, she often gets members of the public coming up to her and telling her she looks “stunning”, or mistaking her for Kate.

She added: “I have people coming up to me telling me how they’ve been a fan of me the whole life, how their mum was a fan of me, how their mum named them after Kate Moss, and taking photos with me.”

While a lot of her life is flying to gigs or walking in catwalk shows, Denise admitted she doesn’t always look glamorous like she did in a recent Vogue shoot, especially when she’s running errands or in the gym.

The model double explained: “It’s a separate world, if you saw me at home you’d crack up.”

Lookalike career

Denise became a Kate lookalike when she was 37 and a stay-at-home mum raising her two kids, Elise, 14, and Anais, nine.

She added: “I’ve not long had my baby so before that I spent 10 years doing telecommunications.

“I went on a night out with a friend, and there was a photo taken of me, and somehow that ended up with my now agent Andy.”

Thankfully for her lookalike gigs, Denise thinks that she looks more and more like Kate as the years go on.

She shared: “ As I get older I look more and more like Kate or maybe she looks more like me I don’t know which

“It kind of brought me out of my shell and just like gave me like a lot more confidence to step out comfort zone and do things that because you never know what you’re going to do as a lookalike

“I think every decade that goes by, Kate doesn’t disappoint.

“She just keeps coming back, and she doesn’t disappoint. I think she’s done really well.”

FORMER Liverpool and England star Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is keen on a return to England, SunSports understands.

The 31-year-old has endured a frustrating season in Turkey with chances limited at Besiktas.

His return of one goal and six appearances is well below what he would have wanted at this stage of the campaign.

Reports in Turkey suggest the club’s new manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is keen to give the talented midfielder a chance, handing him just his second start on Sunday.

But Oxlade-Chamberlain, linked with Brentford last year, is attracted by the idea of heading back to the Premier League – where there is interest in the player.

Leicester and Wolves are both monitoring his availability ahead of the transfer window closing next Monday.

They believe his versatility and top-flight experience could be a vital addition to their squad as they battle the drop.

And Leeds in the Championship are also believed to be keen on the player if he becomes available.

The Yorkshire club think he could add the quality required to take them back into the Premier League.

Besiktas are likely to allow the 35-cap Three Lions international to leave on loan with a view to a permanent switch if the move works out.

Back in the summer, SunSport revealed another Championship side are keen on the ex-Arsenal man.

Now more reports in Turkey state Sheffield United could be set to reignite their interest.

If he joins the Blades, Oxlade-Chamberlain will play alongside former Liverpool team-mate Brewster, the 24-year-old striker who started his professional career with the Reds.

The pair were both part of the Liverpool squad that won the Champions League in 2019.

Oxlade-Chamberlain made 146 appearances during a six-year spell with Liverpool, during which the team won five trophies – including the Premier League and Champions League.

He joined Besiktas in August 2023 following his Anfield release and helped the team win the Turkish Cup last term.

But fiancee Perrie Edwards – with whom he has son Axel – revealed how him living in Turkey has taken its toll.

Speaking in April, she said: “I have to be honest – I’m not going to sugarcoat it – it’s blooming hard . . . it’s really hard. I’m struggling a bit with the Turkey situation.

“When he played for Arsenal it was great because he was just down the road. Liverpool, Manchester, not that bad, but Turkey!

“Turkey is a little bit further and the thing is they are so busy. They train every day practically.

“But do you know what? We make it work, because we make it work for the ones we love.

“So it’s fun, it’s exciting. It still keeps it fresh, I think.”
