Julen Lopetegui insists Wolves need to spend to avoid another relegation dogfight. The former Real Madrid manager has guided Wolves to safety with three games left, despite being bottom of the table at Christmas. He is due to meet chairman Jeff Shi before the end of the season to thrash out the club’s plans for the summer and beyond now their Premier League status is assured. Those talks will include discussions over his transfer kitty at Molineux after a season of struggle. “We have to be together in the same way, we want to improve. In football you have to want to increase your performance and squad. This is about investment too,” said Lopetegui ahead of Saturday’s trip to Manchester United. “I am going to have a long meeting with our chairman to hear him and hear what his ideas are for next year. This is going to be key for me. “That’s why I have to hear him and know first hand what his ideas are. After I will have more information to take a decision. “We have to improve and have to take advantage of the summer. If not we know the level of the Premier League; the first step is to hear him. “Afterwards we will take our decision about a lot of players. In the right moment I’m going to talk, first with the club and afterwards with the players about what is going to be our idea. “We want to improve, we need to improve. We have had a very hard year. We have to be ready to improve and be able to compete better in the next year. “We have to be ready. This year has been a very hard year for all, maybe it can serve as a lesson for all of us.” Lopetegui has no new injury worries for the trip to Old Trafford with Wolves 13th and 10 points clear of the drop zone. “United are a very good team, with top players, a good coach with a very clear idea in the way they want to play,” he added. “They are fighting to be in a good position to be in next season’s Champions League. This is a very difficult achievement.” Read More Football rumours: Newcastle revive interest in signing James Maddison Dwight McNeil says ‘nothing is done yet’ despite Everton’s huge win at Brighton On This Day in 2006: Theo Walcott lands shock England World Cup call-up Roberto De Zerbi believes Brighton deserve a European place Ruben Neves: It would need a catastrophe for Wolves to go down now Julen Lopetegui: Survival for Wolves will be my biggest achievement

Wrexham boss Phil Parkinson has been named Vanarama National League manager of the season. But Wrexham striker Paul Mullin, who scored 47 goals in all competitions, lost out on the player of the season award to Macaulay Langstaff. Notts County striker Langstaff scored 42 National League goals – four more than Mullin – as Luke Williams’ side finished four points short of champions Wrexham’s record total of 111. Parkinson steered Wrexham over the line amid the fierce spotlight on the Welsh club because of their Hollywood star owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney. Wrexham missed out on promotion in the play-offs last season, but the Red Dragons ended a 15-year absence from the English Football League on the season’s penultimate weekend this time. Notts County, who pushed Wrexham all the way in a thrilling title race, will contest the play-off final against Chesterfield on Saturday for the second promotion spot. The top two dominate the National League team of the year with eight players. Notts County supply five players, two more than Wrexham. National League Team of the Year: N Ashmore (Boreham Wood), J King (Chesterfield), A Chicksen (Notts County), B Tozer (Wrexham), K Cameron (Notts County), E Lee (Wrexham), M Palmer, R Rodrigues, M Langstaff (all Notts County), P Mullin (Wrexham), R Colclough (Chesterfield).

Manuel Ugarte is set to leave Sporting CP this summer, according to his agent. However, while he has many admirers from the Premier League, none are willing to meet his release clause.

Everton manager Sean Dyche insists it would be wrong to think “everything is solved” following their resounding win over Brighton. A 5-1 victory, only the club’s second away win in the Premier League this season, lifted the relegation-threatened Toffees out of the bottom three and two points clear of the drop zone. However, despite the morale-boosting result prompting many pundits to now favour Everton escaping a first top-flight relegation since 1951, Dyche has cautioned against complacency – especially with treble-chasing Manchester City next up at Goodison Park. “When I walked in here the thing that hit me instantly was a big result, big everything; tough result, low everything. That needed to change in-house,” he told the club’s website. “The in-house feel here, the environment we work in, and the flow had to get more level and more consistent in our daily work and thinking. “We’ve spoken to the players and staff about it. It’s important to handle good times in terms of not thinking everything is solved and right and proper. “When I talk about seeing through the noise, that maybe implies when things aren’t going right but it very much applies to when things are going right as well.” Read More Charity boss speaks out over ‘traumatic’ encounter with royal aide Ukraine war’s heaviest fight rages in east - follow live

Chelsea striker Sam Kerr has expressed her pride over her role in the King’s coronation last weekend, describing it as an “amazing experience”. The Australia international on Saturday led her country’s delegation in the formal procession, carrying the flag as they made their way into Westminster Abbey. Kerr, who helped Chelsea thrash Everton 7-0 in the Women’s Super League the following day, said: “I got offered the opportunity to be part of it about a month ago while I was in international camp, and I originally thought the Everton game was on the same day, so I thought it was not doable. “But Emma (Hayes, the Chelsea manager) and the club were kind enough to let me attend, obviously because it’s an amazing, amazing honour, and something I’ll probably tell my kids about in 10, 15 years. “It’s been a crazy week. I was quite worried about missing a training session, because that’s just who I am. “But it all worked out – we had two wins (also 2-1 against Liverpool on May 3) and I got to attend the King’s coronation, which was something that was an amazing experience for me and a proud moment for my family.” Kerr was speaking ahead of Chelsea taking on Manchester United on Sunday in what is the first Women’s FA Cup final to sell out Wembley. The last two finals have been won by the Blues with Kerr scoring a brace in each, and the prolific 29-year-old forward said: “I love playing at Wembley, I think it’s probably my favourite stadium to play at in the world, just based on whenever you go there it’s a big game. “I think this team always steps up when there’s a big occasion so it’s going be amazing – a packed-out crowd – my family is coming over for it. It’s going to be very exciting.” As well as the FA Cup triumphs, Chelsea – currently a point behind WSL leaders United with a game in hand after Wednesday’s 6-0 victory over Leicester – have also secured three league titles and two League Cups since Kerr joined during the 2019-20 season. Kerr added: “I think when you win one trophy, you can’t help but want more. “I love winning, whether it’s FA Cup finals, a game at the weekend, in training, whatever, and I hate losing, so it’s easy to stay motivated as a footballer, that’s our job, that’s why we do it. If I wasn’t motivated, I wouldn’t be playing football. The FA Cup is a very important trophy to us and hopefully we can keep it at Chelsea.” Read More Charity boss speaks out over ‘traumatic’ encounter with royal aide Ukraine war’s heaviest fight rages in east - follow live Everton boss Sean Dyche warns not to assume ‘everything solved’ by Brighton rout Ronnie O’Sullivan planning to prioritise Asian tournaments over playing in UK Andy Murray to speak with his team about French Open participation
