Tom Grennan steps in to help Argentinian Coventry fan reach Wembley dream
Tom Grennan steps in to help Argentinian Coventry fan reach Wembley dream
Tom Grennan has helped a Coventry fan from Argentina by covering his expenses and allowing him to watch his team's Championship play-off final next weekend. The singer-songwriter made the offer to Lauti, a passionate Coventry supporter who planned to sell his car in order to be able to fly over to watch the crucial match live. Speaking to BBC Sport Coventry & Warwickshire, Lauti described his feelings about the upcoming play-off match against Luton Town on May 27, which could result on the side returning to the Premier League for the first time in 22 years if they win the game. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter "What happened is just unbelievable. I have no words to describe what I am feeling now," the Argentine said. "When I started to support Coventry we were playing at Wembley too, but we were playing against Exeter in League Two so I never expected this. He added: "This is more than a dream come true. I am selling my car. I think my girl is not happy because I am selling it to go to Wembley. "We are one game away from our dream, from playing again in the Premier League so vamos Sky Blues." Soon, the video caught the attention of Grennan who tweeted out his generous offer (and saved Lauti from selling his car) as the singer noted he will not be able to attend the match because he's got to perform at BBC Radio 1's Big Weekend. "I WILL PAY FOR THIS LAD!!!! I can’t go to the final as I’m performing at BBCR1 weekend in Dundee," Grennan wrote. "Devastated to miss the game, but instead I’ll pay for this lad to come over for the game. Does he have a ticket? Someone let me know." In a follow-up tweet, Grennan replied to another Coventry fan who set up a GoFundMe page for Lauti and was keen to send the money over. Grennan proved to be a man of his word as the footy fan shared an image of the £2,000 transaction that the singer donated, calling him an "absolute legend." Previously, Grennan trained to be a professional footballer as a youngster and was on the books at Luton (who Coventry are up against in the play-offs) and also took part in Soccer Aid last year.

Man Utd's Onana called a 'loose cannon' after getting away with 'stonewall penalty'
Man Utd's Onana called a 'loose cannon' after getting away with 'stonewall penalty'
New Manchester United goalkeeper Andre Onana has found himself at the centre of controversy in his very first game for the club after getting away with what many fans felt was a stonewall penalty. The Cameroonian shot-stopped, who as a summer signing from Inter Milan, had impressive debut at Old Trafford where he managed to keep a clean sheet against an otherwise impressive Wolverhampton Wanderers, who are tipped to be relegated this season. Despite this Wolves were largely the better side but failed to take their chances whereas a lacklustre United did manage to score on 76 minutes thanks to a close-range header from French defender Raphael Varane. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter The game finished 1-0 but not without a late incident. As the away team piled on the pressure Onana came to claim a cross but managed to miss the ball completely and instead clattered Sasa Kalajdzic which incensed the Wolves manager Gary O'Neil who believed it should have been a penalty. Indeed this consensus was shared amongst many fans who compared Onana's antics to WWE wrestler or a Street Fighter character. Regardless of this criticism, Onana will be looking to continue his good start at United when the Red Devils travel to London on Saturday to face Tottenham Hotspur.

Roberto De Zerbi insists Brighton retain their ‘soul’ despite star departures
Roberto De Zerbi insists Brighton retain their ‘soul’ despite star departures
Roberto De Zerbi insists leading Premier League clubs “can’t buy our soul” as Moises Caicedo edges closer to becoming the latest star name to depart Brighton. Albion have accepted a British record transfer fee in the region of £110million from Liverpool for the Ecuador midfielder, although reports suggest he would prefer to join Chelsea. The Seagulls, who start the new season at home to newly-promoted Luton on Saturday, have become accustomed to selling key players for hefty fees. Argentina World Cup winner Alexis Mac Allister moved to Anfield earlier this summer, while Arsenal pair Ben White and Leandro Trossard, Chelsea defender Marc Cucurella and Tottenham midfielder Yves Bissouma also left the Amex Stadium in the past two years. De Zerbi is resigned to losing 21-year-old Caicedo but had a defiant message as he focused on further strengthening his squad going into a campaign which will include Europa League football. “I’ve already forgotten Moises,” said the Italian. “I’m really proud for the players we have in the squad. We have to complete the squad. “We want to improve the squad because we lost Mac Allister, we lost (Levi) Colwill (on loan from Chelsea last season), maybe we lose Caicedo. “We have to be ready because when the players leave it’s because they played well but the credit is for the club, for the players, for us, the coaches. “The big clubs can buy the players but they can’t buy our soul and our spirit. That’s not on the market and this is more important than the players when they leave. “The money is not my work, is not my job. I can answer only about the transfer market in general. Moises is leaving and is not important for me now.” Read More Charity boss speaks out over ‘traumatic’ encounter with royal aide Ukraine war’s heaviest fight rages in east - follow live
