Man City star Erling Haaland's girlfriend Isabel frolics in water in a bikini as pair relax on holiday
MANCHESTER CITY star Erling Haaland's girlfriend Isabel was seen making the most of their ocean access while away on a yacht holiday. Isabel Haugseng Johansen, 21, dived into the sea in a bikini in a series of snaps uploaded to her Instagram account. 6 6 6 6 Johansen is clearly making the most of her long-awaited break from football alongside boyfriend Haaland. She could be seen wearing a pink bikini as she zipped across the waves using a water jet. The couple have been soaking up the sun on a yacht between trips to the coast. Johansen also showed off a snug tropical gradient dress, giving fans all the angles of her holiday wear. The pair also met up with Erling's businessman brother Astor Haaland and his girlfriend, posing for a sunny picture together. The Haaland family grew recently when Johansen gave birth to the couple's first child in December of 2024. Having a child clearly hasn't slowed down their jet-setting lifestyle in the months since the birth. Their summer travels have already taken them to Haaland's native Norway, alongside spells in Ibiza and Rome. CASINO SPECIAL - BEST CASINO BONUSES FROM £10 DEPOSITS 6 6 Johansen and Haaland were finally free to holiday this year after Manchester City were dumped out of the Club World Cup by Al Hilal in early July. It was something of a lacklustre season for Haaland's Manchester City as they failed to win a trophy for the first time in years. This was extended into a time traditionally reserved for rest and relaxation due to Manchester City's inclusion in the Club World Cup in the US. But this participation came to a shocking early end, allowing the Norwegian all-time top scorer to take his leave.

Former Premier League star, 34, at the front of sensational bid to return F1 to Africa with brand new track
FORMER Premier League star Marvin Sordell is fronting a sensational bid to bring Formula One to Africa, according to reports. Sordell, 34, is a co-chief executive and director for Opus Race Promotions, having retired from football in 2019 to then come out of it for non-league side Kettering Town. 4 4 4 Sordell played for both Bolton and Burnley in the Premier League, but is perhaps best known for his time in the Championship for clubs including Watford, Charlton and Burton Albion. His company has already gained "early support" from the Nigerian government over the prospect of getting the nation to host a grand prix. According to The Times, the plans include far more than simply hosting a race in the capital city of Abuja. The pledges made by Opus outline the building of a karting track, hotels, a technology hub, and a motorsport museum, among other infrastructure. Nigeria 's chairman of the National Sports Commission, Shehu Dikko, invited the promoter to Nigeria in April to present a concept of their grand F1 designs. The proposal seemed to have left Dikko impressed, because a month later, the promoter was officially appointed to negotiate with F1 and the FIA on behalf of the Nigerian government. F1 CEO Stefano Domenicali has also reportedly been invited to Abuja by Opus to review the project. SunSport have contacted F1 for comment over the claims. Domenicali, 60, has repeatedly spoken about his desire to expand the motorsport into new markets. Africa is a major omission from the modern F1 calendar, with the last race on the continent happening at the Kyalami Circuit in South Africa back in 1993. The only other nation F1 has been to on the continent is Morocco, all the way back in 1958. F1 legend Lewis Hamilton has been a major voice pushing for the sport to add a race in Africa. Both South Africa and Rwanda have been among the front-runners linked with that lucrative possibility. However, speaking in May, Domenicali ruled out a race happening anytime soon, saying: "Realistically speaking, I don't think we're going to have an outcome in the very short term." A new European track in Madrid is being added next year in place of Italy 's famous Imola circuit. Meanwhile, Thailand appears on course to be the next new addition to F1. That's after the government there agreed to a roughly £890million funding plan for a street race in Bangkok, which could debut as early as 2028. The 2025 F1 season returns in Belgium this weekend after a two-week break following the chaotic British Grand Prix. 4
