David Moyes targets Kyle Walker for new Everton era
Kyle Walker has emerged as a serious target for Everton as they look to build David Moyes's squad heading into their new stadium at Bramley-Moore Dock. Moyes is in the market for a right-back following Ashley Young's departure from the club at the end of the month, with Walker among the candidates they are willing to explore. Walker, 35, was not taken to the Club World Cup with Manchester City and will be allowed to leave the Etihad Stadium having spent eight years at the club, winning six Premier League titles and the Champions League. He was loaned out to AC Milan for the second half of the 2024-25 campaign and returned this month, although is not expected to be returning to Italy for a second spell at the San Siro. While he is assessing his next options, Everton could be an attractive destination in terms of location and their ambitious plans as they start next season in a brand new ground after leaving Goodison Park. Moyes played Jake O'Brien at right-back but is looking at options to provide competition in that area, with the Republic of Ireland international also able to play as a centre-back. The club released Young along with Abdoulaye Doucouré, Joao Virginia, Asmir Begovic, Mason Holgate and Neal Maupay at the end of their deals this summer. Walker was at fault for one of Senegal's goals in England's 3-1 defeat at the City Ground, although Thomas Tuchel, the head coach, defended him by insisting he was out of rhythm after a recent shoulder injury.

'I think at the moment you see a lack of rhythm. Because he did not play the last matches, not many minutes for AC Milan,' Tuchel said. 'And after his broken elbow he lost his rhythm, that's what you feel in camp. I saw him very composed. 'I saw him very open. I saw him absolutely happy to be in camp and proud to be in camp. He trained very well. Every single player who played today deserved it, over two camps or in this camp, to play, to start, to come in. That counts also for Kyle. I feel a lack of rhythm in his game.'

Brits face cancelled holidays as holiday company loses license
Hundreds of British travellers may have their summer holidays cancelled after a UK travel provider lost a key license on Friday. As of 13 June, operations by Great Little Escapes are no longer protected by an Air Travel Organiser's Licence (Atol). The company's Facebook page says the brand formerly offered 'holidays to the most iconic cities in the world'. A notice from the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) confirmed that the company based in Sandhurst, Berkshire, ceased trading as an Atol holder on 13 June 2025. The Air Travel Organisers' Licence is a financial protection scheme run by the CAA for package holidays sold by tour operators in the UK. Under the scheme, if a firm goes out of business, your booking will be refunded. According to Companies House, the travel provider has been operational since September 2002. Great Little Escapes also traded under the names Your Holidays, Great Little Escapes, Tunisia First and websites and said the CAA. It added: 'We are currently collating information from the company and will update this page as soon as possible.' Customers of Great Little Escapes are advised not to submit a claim before the CAA has finished gathering information. The closure comes just two months after operations by Balkan Holidays shut in the UK, with 'all forward holiday bookings' cancelled after almost 60 years of trading. The travel provider started operations in 1966 with summer holidays to Bulgaria, Croatia, Montenegro, Slovenia, Malta and northern Cyprus, as well as winter ski trips, on offer to travellers. In March, Jetline Holidays ceased trading as an Atol holder, raising doubts on whether trip bookings – specifically cruises –would still be valid. Princess, Cunard and Holland America were among the affected cruise holidays, most of which were cancelled due to a 'breach of contract' with the former travel operator. The Carnival brand cruise lines said in a statement: 'We recognise how disappointing this news will be for affected guests and express our sincere apologies for the disruption caused. This decision was not made lightly.'

Gossip website founder facing £2m defamation bill is vegan influencer
A gossip website founder has been unmasked as a male vegan influencer after nearly a decade of anonymity. Sebastian Bond, 41, was revealed as the architect of the popular online forum Tattle Life after losing a £300,000 defamation case, in which he was also ordered to pay costs of £1.8 million. The British businessman has run the website since 2017 under the pseudonym Helen McDougal. The site encourages its 12 million monthly visitors to share their opinions of those in the public eye, which critics say has allowed for vicious 'trolling'. Mr Bond, who runs plant-based recipe Instagram page Nest and Glow, was sued by Neil and Donna Sands for defamation and harassment at the High Court in Northern Ireland in 2023. The pair were awarded £300,000. Mr Bond has now had his anonymity waived after reporting restrictions were lifted last week. He was also ordered to cover the Sands's legal costs and third-party compliance expenses, which came to £1.8 million. The pair were also granted injunctive relief to prevent the site from posting about them in the future. Mr and Mrs Sands, who work in fashion and AI respectively, said they had contacted the site in 2021 to request the comments be taken down and threatened legal action. Mr Justice McAlinden said in December 2023 that Mr Bond's running of the site 'constitutes behaviour solely aimed at making profit out of people's misery'. 'Zero-tolerance policy' He added: 'People facilitating this are making money out of it… protecting their income streams by protecting the identity of the individual posters.' Tattle Life informs users that it has a 'zero-tolerance policy to any content that is abusive, hateful, harmful and a team of moderators online 24/7 to remove any content that breaks our strict rules - often in minutes'. It adds: 'We allow people to express their views on businesses away from an influencer's feed on a site where they would have to go out of their way to read, this is not trolling.' 'Forced to take action' Reporting restrictions preventing Mr Bond from being named were lifted at the High Court of Justice in Northern Ireland last week, while his assets were also frozen. The court was shown a letter from Mr Bond's legal team, sent to one of the plaintiffs, claiming he was the Tattle Life founder but was 'unaware of any legal proceedings against him'. In an Instagram post over the weekend, Donna and Neil said: 'As a couple we never wanted or expected to undertake this work, however when we discovered the hate site Tattle Life we were forced to take action. 'We are very grateful for your support and hope that this serves as a reminder to those who want to attack others from behind a screen - that the internet is not an anonymous place. 'We will share more soon, but for today, we hope that this news will provide some peace to those affected by online hate and harassment and that the internet can be a safer space for us all. Onward.' 'Anonymous online attacks' Neil Sands later told The Journal: 'We undertook this case not just for ourselves but for the many people who have suffered serious personal and professional harm through anonymous online attacks on this and other websites. 'We believe in free speech, but not consequence-free speech – particularly where it is intended to, and succeeds in, causing real-world damage to people's lives, livelihoods and mental health. We were in the fortunate position to be able to take the fight to these faceless operators, and it took a lot of time, effort and expense.'
