The Daily Mail quotes him saying: 'The truth is that I see weird things happening. But it was also said that there would be evidence. We will have to wait to see if it is true or not. We can't say much and we have to wait and see what happens. Frankly, the subject seems strange to me.

Championship is a 'bubble waiting to burst' - 5 Live investigationIt will hear from both the Rams and the EFL, although a date has not been announced. In March 2019, Birmingham City were deducted nine points by the EFL for a similar charge of breaching profitability and sustainability rules. The Rams are 17th in the Championship and 10 points above the relegation zone. Between 1 July, 2017 and 30 June, 2018, Derby recorded a pre-tax profit for the first time in 10 years and in the three years under review by the EFL, the club saw combined pre-tax losses of just over £8m.
Unlike basketball or football players, tennis players aren't covered by fixed annual salaries. They're independent contractors," he said. They're paying for their travels.

At Old Trafford in the first leg of the Carabao Cup semi-final, he played without a striker, using Bernardo Silva as a false nine, and in the return he went with a back three containing two full-backs because he knew Manchester United would try to exploit the wide spaces. Against Sheffield United last month, Guardiola also went with a 5-3-2 shape because of their split strikers and it would not shock me if he used three centre-backs again in the away leg on Wednesday.

Parma are heading into this clash with three straight wins behind them, making them the obvious favourites with the bookies. However, it’s not just recent form which has the home side as the team to back here. Parma have won 11 of their 18 matches against Brescia in Serie A: three draws and four losses.
Belarus is the only country in Europe still playing a national soccer league, making it an unlikely draw for fans overseas who are starved of matches in their own countries. In choosing to stay open, the league took its cue from President Alexander Lukashenko, who has resisted imposing strict lockdown measures and variously prescribed remedies like drinking vodka or driving tractors to fight the pandemic.
Just when a feisty, stop-start game was heading into its final knockings, though, it exploded, with a thrilling conclusion delighting the home support. Lauren James came off the bench to score a lovely goal, drilling past Brosnan with a low strike across the goalkeeper after she'd been released by Hanson but, just as they'd done in the opening minutes, the Irons' reply was swift.
Chloe Morgan joined Crystal Palace from Tottenham earlier this monthThat is something Luke Tuffs, who manages Isthmian League side Ashford Town, recognises. I've been nothing but looked after," he says. I came out to my old first team when I was 16. I looked about 12, so I was a baby to them, and they looked after me. I think one person said something, and the boys went at them. They protected me and from there, everyone in football knew I was gay so I've never had a problem.
Here's my team of the week (well, two weeks in this case) - have a read and then select your own below. Goalkeeper - Alisson (Liverpool) No matter how good any defence may be, I am of the firm opinion that to win the title a team needs to have a top-class keeper. In Liverpool's case I think Alisson is world class. That was never better illustrated than when Norwich's Lukas Rupp had beaten Liverpool's offside trap and was through on goal.
The only negative for Manchester City on Wednesday was the loss of Aymeric Laporte to injury. The defender was playing in only his fourth match since recovering from a serious knee problem but limped off midway through the first half. He's had four or five months out and it's a problem when you come back," Guardiola said. He came back in this demanding game and we wanted him to be fit to the end. With John [Stones], Nico [Otamendi], Eric [Garcia], Fernandinho, we can get through.
The latest side to make the trip to Valley Parade in the hope of earning three points is a Morecambe side who know that relegation come the end of the season is looking a real danger. The visitors are currently second from bottom having claimed 18 points from their 24 games, and although Bury’s exclusion from the Football League means only one side will be relegated, it is not as if the side currently occupying the spot below Morecambe are adrift as they are just one point behind with a game in hand.
Under Jurgen Klopp, and with a bit of initial tweaking from Brendan Rodgers, he has worked out his role in this team and never tries to do too much. Klopp’s team-based system suits him perfectly, it never demands too much from one individual and allows the collective to thrive thanks to the work of each member.

British media reported Aubameyang could leave the Emirates Stadium in search of Champions League football next season, with his current Arsenal deal expiring in 2021. We will have to do that (contract talks) at some stage before the end of the season for sure," Arteta told a news conference on Thursday.
The players are feeling the same and my job is to find out how to improve and the key is here with the supporters. Our target was to win but above all the play well and we didn’t do that. Our performance was not enough. They (the supporters) helped us in the 90 minutes but we didn’t connect with them.
We’re confident that under 2.5 goals will be produced in Monday’s match and we have predicted a final scoreline of 1-1. Rio Ave have the home advantage and a better defensive record than their guests over the last few weeks but Gil Vicente arrive as the form favourites and on the back of putting three goals past Sporting in the Primeira Liga. Monday’s match is set to be tight and tense and we believe the two mid-table rivals will cancel each other out and produce a 1-1 draw.
At least, not in the traditional sense of actually signing players, sending them out on to the pitch and playing football. The United States has seen a spate of faux football clubs pop up since Asbury Park FC's "founding" in 2014, teams that have elaborate backstories, put out press releases, release stadium renderings and sell merchandise but are not actually represented by 11 players on the field.

Scoring the winner in London, top scorer Timo Werner ended his own five-game goal drought in all competitions. I had not scored in the last few games and I had also missed some chances before the penalty," Werner said. That did not make the penalty any easier but I really wanted to take it and I stayed calm.
Manchester United striker Odion Ighalo will miss the club's training camp in Spain because of fears the coronavirus outbreak could lead to him being refused entry back into the UK. Nigerian Ighalo, 30, flew to Manchester from China last weekend after signing on loan from Shanghai Shenhua. He might have liked to have come with the players and got to know them," manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer told MUTV.
Last year, they won the Coppa Italia although they could manage only a modest eighth place in Serie A. This season they have found a consistency that was previously lacking, helped by an uncanny ability to grind out late and dramatic wins. During their winning run, they scored twice in stoppage time as they came from behind to beat Cagliari 2-1 away and they also beat Sassuolo by the same score thanks to a stoppage-time winner.
The return of Anthony Martial and emergence of Mason Greenwood has at times given them an effective focal point. However the side have failed to put sides to the sword when they are asked to take the initiative in a game. The midfield in Pogba’s absence has often been Fred and Scott McTominay, and sometimes with the assistance of Andreas Pereira or Nemanja Matic, they have shown little creativity.

Money that goes to the government, money that is helping the NHS. Hard to argue with a word of that. Let's remember here players are just employees. Kyle Walker There is a move over Jamie Vardy, Kyle Walker is having a party quip in this absolute shambles somewhere if it was not so serious What. On. Earth.
St Johnstone come into this tie in relatively good form and they've been able to pick up some important results along the way, but they're still slack in defence and have conceded at least once in seven of their nine home games, whilst Ross County has let in 16 goals in their last five away days, which is why we're backing both teams to score for this fixture. Moreover, we're going to back a final score of 1-1, as the hosts' last two home games ended as draws and two of the visitors' last four away fixtures have also ended as a stalemate.
Dinamo Minsk is going to face Neman Grodno for the 5th round of the Belarusian League. They will play against the team which is undefeated in the last three matches. Minsk won only against Zhodino at home with the result of 2:0 but after that, they failed to even score against Gorodeya and lost that clash 0:1. The visitors draw against Soligorsk on away 0:0 and won against Witebsk at home 2:0. Both teams don't play offensive football so I don't expect them to score more than one goal. I think that Demand is able to win this match. My bets are 1:0 or 0:1
By looking at the age and playing time of every player this season, we can see the make-up of each squad and where the clubs might want to strengthen, as well as where gaps may appear as they look to replace players who are out of contract and set to leave this summer. We have already assessed the top 10 teams, so now we check out those in the bottom half of the table. Crystal Palace: New blood neededWith seven first-team players aged 30 or older and the oldest average starting XI in the Premier League overall, Roy Hodgson has recently said he would like to "inject some new blood" into the squad.
Third-placed Lazio have moved six points off the leading pair of Inter Milan and Juventus with a game in hand but, more importantly, have exposed chinks in Juve's armour by beating the Turin side twice in the space of just over two weeks. They handed Juventus a first defeat of the season, beating them 3-1 at home in Serie A, then they overcame them by the same score in the annual Supercup match played in Riyadh.

In the Barcelona academy you would wear numbers depending on position. The number four was the player in front of the defender. Guardiola was playing there and I was number four. Funniest moment"When Conte first came to Chelsea I didn't really play the first three months. He made it clear he wanted a different type of midfielder. Nemanja Matic was playing, I had an injury as well and I didn't really play the whole season.
CFR Cluj is a strong contending team and will easily defeat the away team with ease. The home team has been good at home and will do it best to win over the away team. The away team on the other hand is also good at defending but their defense will not be able to withstand the attacking pressure from the home side and therefore will concede a lot of goals from the home side. The expected score in this game is 2-0 or 2-1. The ideal goals in this game is 3 and will come from both sides. The home will carry the victory at the end of the day.
The Azerbaijanis were never going to tussle with Sevilla, but they'll be disappointed not to have made use of being in a group with APOEL and minnows Dudelange. Failing to beat APOEL either home or away is where Qarabag went wrong.
But, in the end, me personally, I wanted a new challenge. To stay in the Premier League would have been an easy solution. Of course, staying at Tottenham would also have been a solution but, for me, it just came down to wanting to try a new challenge in a new country. Once Inter came up it really wasn't a difficult choice.
The last time the two clubs faced each other at the Allianz Stadium, Juventus announced revenues of 3. The figure would have been similar on Sunday, and Juventus are permitted to keep the money, regardless of the whether it is deemed fair for fans. The situation is so unprecedented that Sky Italia had declared themselves ready to broadcast the game on their free-to-air channel TV8, essentially giving away a match that is the biggest asset of the season for them.
Fortuna Sittard have won three and drawn two of their seven home games in the Eredivisie this season, while Groningen have drawn two and lost three of their seven away games in the league. The hosts average 1.57 points per home game in the Eredivisie and the visitors only average 1.14 points per away game, so you can see why we believe Fortuna Sittard will take something from Saturday’s match.
Van Basten apologised later in the programme while Fox said in a statement on Monday that the comment was "stupid and inappropriate" and that it had suspended the three-times Ballon d'Or winner until December 7. The channel added that Van Basten's wages for the week would be donated to the Netherlands Institute for War Documentation.
If you look at our lineup then you see that it is a very young team," Serdar said. Obviously there are things we need to improve but, compared to last season, we have take a big step forward. The Bavarians have themselves brought in reinforcements this week, with right back Alvaro Odriozola joining on loan from Real Madrid until the end of the season, as interim coach Hansi Flick struggles with injuries to defenders Javi Martinez, Lucas Hernandez and Niklas Suele.
In a derby it is about adrenalin and atmosphere," added the Norwegian. The Old Trafford club trail City by 13 points in the league but did win 2-1 at Etihad Stadium in December, producing one of the best performances of Solskjaer's time as manager. City have finished above their neighbours - who are 13-time Premier League champions - in the table every season since Sir Alex Ferguson retired as United boss in 2013, winning the title three times - including the past two years under Guardiola.
What about the domestic leagues?This meeting is nothing to do with them. But it is only when the outcome is known that the leagues can come up with a plan for their own competitions. The 20 Premier League clubs are due to meet on Thursday. Is this going to sort the mess out?Unfortunately not. Firstly, no-one can be entirely sure when the coronavirus crisis will be over. Secondly, decisions taken by governments override any football body.
Brighton & Hove Albion v Aston Villa *Brighton have won only one of their last seven league matches (D3 L3).

We’re confident that AZ will win on Saturday and we have predicted a final scoreline of 2-0. The visitors head into the game as the clear form favourites and are flying right now following an impressive 1-0 win over Ajax. Sparta have struggled for wins in recent weeks and while their home form has been decent, we still expect AZ to be too strong for them over the ninety minutes.

The party went long into the night. The only odd bit was the atmosphere at Anfield. The Liverpool fans didn't want United to win the title, they wanted Blackburn to win, for the obvious reasons of Kenny Dalglish was Blackburn's manager and everything he means to Liverpool. They wanted us to win it, that was strange. You could sense even the players wanted us to win it. We lost the game but straight away we realised the title was ours.
