Legendary former Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has been taken to hospital from Old Trafford after feeling unwell. The 84-year-old left the stadium an hour before United's Premier League clash with Liverpool kicked off on Sunday afternoon, with his subsequent admission to hospital described as a "precaution". Precautionary measures at Old Trafford Per The Daily Mail, Ferguson was moved to medical care more than an hour before the scheduled kick-off on Sunday. Despite the sudden nature of the incident, it is understood that the move is purely a precaution intended to ensure the Scotsman's well-being. It is expected that Ferguson will soon be recuperating at home. Surgery needed in 2018 Ferguson remains a constant fixture at both home and away matches for the Red Devils, usually sitting in the directors' box. In May 2018, he underwent emergency surgery following a life-threatening brain hemorrhage, and made a full recovery. There is nothing to suggest this weekend's incident is related in any way. Club hierarchy changes The United icon has faced several personal challenges in recent years, including the loss of his wife, Lady Cathy, who passed away in 2023 at the age of 84. The couple had been married for 57 years, and her passing was felt deeply across the entire Manchester United community. Ferguson has also seen his formal relationship with the club change. Following the arrival of Sir Jim Ratcliffe and INEOS, his multi-million-pound ambassadorial contract was canceled as part of a wider cost-cutting initiative. Despite this, his loyalty to the team has never wavered. Ratcliffe on Ferguson's status Explaining the decision to end the paid role a year ago, Sir Jim Ratcliffe provided insight into their private conversations. Ratcliffe said: "I sat down with Alex, just the two of us in the room. And I said, 'Look, the club isn't where you may think it is. It is spending more than it's earning and we're going to finish up in some difficulties. Honestly, we can't really afford to continue to pay you 2m a year.'"

Jayson Tatum met with the media on Sunday following the Boston Celtics Game 7 loss to the Philadelphia 76ers in their NBA first-round playoff series and explained why he wasnt able to play. in the early afternoon on Saturday, Tatum was initially listed as questionable with left knee stiffness, But that status changed approximately two hours before tip-off and Tatum was ruled out for the win-or-go-home showdown in Boston. Tatum confirmed he was feeling tightness in the back of his left knee and was technically still in the return to play protocol, which requires a progression from light activity (such as an exercise bike or jogging) to non-contact activity, then practice with no restrictions on contact over a 48-hour period. The training staff and Tatum stuck to that plan and that meant being unavailable on Saturday, despite the stakes of a Game 7. Jayson Tatum explained why he couldnt in Game 7:The staff, the medical team, they just kind of assessed everything that was going on. And I was in the window of return-to-play protocol, and there were just certain rules and a plan that, ultimately, that we had to stick by. pic.twitter.com/8IHiAApdwY Daniel Donabedian (@danield1214) May 3, 2026If the Celtics had advanced to the second round, Tatum said his status would have been day-to-day and he would have been available to play at some point against the Knicks.Tatum added that he felt an injury like this may have been inevitable after returning from his torn Achilles sustained last year. (His knee injury was to the left leg, while the Achilles rupture occurred in his right.)I guess a little to be expected, Tatum said, via CelticsBlogs Noa Dalzell. I was away for 10 months and then came back, and I was playing every other day. I was playing 36 to 40 minutes. So its not unusual that something would come up.It was just kind of tough because rehab was just going so well the entire time, he added. I guess it was inevitable at some point that I was gonna have to deal with was something, and it just kind of came at the worst possible time.Jayson Tatum on his left knee stiffness: It was just kind of tough because rehab was just going so well the entire time.

Philadelphia went on to win that game, 106-93, to force a decisive Game 7 at TD Garden. Following the game, Celtics coach Joe Mazzulla didnt seem overly concerned, saying that Tatum just got stretched, got some treatment and appeared to believe that he would play in Game 7. However, neither he nor the medical staff had all of the necessary information to make a considered decision. The Celtics lost by nine points, 109-100, and Tatum had averaged 23.3 points, 10.7 reobunds and 6.8 assists during the series previous six games. So its not unreasonable to speculate that had he been available to play, Boston would have advanced to the second round for a rematch with the New York Knicks. Jayson Tatum:All things considered, for me to even be able to come back and play and play at the level I was playing that, you know, even at 80, 85% one of my legs is still smaller than the other one.

Real Madrid legend Dani Carvajal faces a heartbreaking exit as the club plan to release the veteran right-back this summer. Plagued by injuries and a reported breakdown in relations with the coaching staff during a dismal, trophyless season, his departure potentially paves the way for Trent Alexander-Arnold to cement his place as the undisputed starter at right-back for Los Blancos. Contract renewal off the table for veteran defender According to Marca, Carvajal faces a definite exit as Real Madrid have decided against offering him a contract extension beyond June. This decision stems from a miserable campaign for the club, who sit second in La Liga with 74 points, trailing Barcelona by 14 points and facing a second straight season without a major trophy. Carvajal has struggled immensely, making just 20 appearances across all competitions. Hampered by recurring knee and muscle injuries, the 34-year-old full-back has failed to convince the hierarchy that he can remain at the highest level. Injury disasters end World Cup dreams A recent foot fracture has ended the chances of Carvajal playing in the remaining domestic fixtures, effectively shattering his hopes of making the Spain squad for the upcoming World Cup. Meanwhile, Alexander-Arnold has also endured a frustrating debut year at Real, suffering a hamstring injury and a muscle tear. However, the Englishman has still managed 26 appearances and over 1,500 minutes across La Liga and the Champions League. While the medical staff estimate a two to three-week recovery for Carvajal, time has simply run out for the six-time Champions League winner to reclaim his spot from his younger teammate before his contract expires. A breakdown in relations and playing time The final year of Carvajals contract has been remarkably bleak, marked by just eight league starts and prolonged spells on the sidelines. Tensions behind the scenes have exacerbated this disappointing conclusion. When questioned by the media about the alleged friction between the player and the coaching staff, manager Alvaro Arbeloa bluntly stated: "It was a question out of place." This internal friction, combined with his inability to stay fit during a catastrophic domestic campaign, has left the legendary defender completely frozen out of the project. Clearing the path for Alexander-Arnold While this exit marks a cruel end for a loyal servant, it signals the definitive start of a new era. With Carvajal officially departing, Real Madrid have a clear tactical space. Alexander-Arnold will now bear the immense responsibility of being Real's undisputed first-choice right-back as the club look to rebuild next season.
