EXCL: George Cottrell transferred $2m to his mother days before her donations to Reform UK.
Sources say Fiona Cottrell told bankers the transfers, received 24-72 hours before her donations to the party, came from her son.

The FIFA is not a private equity fund. It is an association with statutes, regulations, and a fiduciary responsibility to protect the global game. If you sell football's crown jewels to private investors, you also sell part of the game – especially its soul. Money matters, but it must never become everything. #FIFA #Football #GianniInfantino
An offshore company controlled by Roman Abramovich paid £6m to Eden Hazard's agent, and the Club paid £1m that was undisclosed.
According to both the Premier League and the FA, there was no sporting advantage to a career at Chelsea for Hazard (who did not benefit financially from these payments).
Purchase price £32m
Sale price £130m
Appearances 352
Goals 110
Assists 92
During that time
2 x Premier League titles
1 x FA Cup
1 x League Cup
2 x Europa League
I don’t mean to sound melodramatic but do y’all ever think about how humanity used to navigate the world by the stars and now people can’t make a grocery list without help from AI.
Arsene Wenger could have used his influence and intelligence to keep Gianni Infantino's rampant egotism in check. Instead he's become a silent stooge to the FIFA president https://t.co/BpZ2O8tkr4 via @MailSport

Your private investment plan is the best 👌 for #CAF and the world.
You are a world genius. You deserve the Nobel Peace Prize ✌️ 👏
When I was updating the Price of Football second edition, submitted a chapter that was rejected by the publisher. Currently writing the third edition and I'll perhaps give it another go?
The question now is not whether Infantino’s divisive plan survives. It can’t. The question now is whether Infantino himself survives as FIFA president. He shouldn’t.
