Francesco Farioli's Ajax exit explained amid Rangers talks
The Dutch giants were the fourth club of an interesting career to date for the 36-year-old, who hasn't tended to stick around anywhere long including stints at Fatih Karagumruk, Alanyaspor and Nice. It was the Italian coach the Amsterdam side turned to last summer after a desperately poor campaign had just been completed, finishing a lowly fifth in the Eredivisie. Farioli brought his progressive style with him and restored plenty of pride, having them sitting pretty at the top of the table by March. However, a late collapse saw them waste a nine-point lead over PSV, who ended up champions. Roberto de Zerbi's former coach was not sacked and instead took the decision to step away, described as 'incredibly disappointing' by technical director Alex Kroes. Describing the reasons behind his departure, Farioli said at the time: "The management and I have the same goals for the future of Ajax, but we have different visions and timeframes about the way we should work and operate to achieve those goals.

Kroes praised the departing boss and insisted he had achieved the stated aim of qualifying for the Champions League. "Francesco also played a key role in enhancing the high-performance culture at Ajax, for which we are extremely grateful," said the technical director. "This summer was already set to be a challenging transfer window, and it has now become even more so. It is up to us to ensure that a strong new coaching team is in place when pre-season preparations begin on 26 June." At a later date, Farioli was then quizzed about his plans for the future. 'There's a lot of speculation, a lot of rumours,' he said. 'But I do want to get back into coaching. Just like it was with Ajax, I don't care about the brand or the size of the club. What matters to me is how things are done, and last summer Ajax was exactly what I was looking for. 'It was the right step for my career, and now we'll see what comes next. We'll see if and when that opportunity arrives. 'I'm a very demanding person. Before I join a club, I lay all my strengths and weaknesses on the table. 'Demanding' is probably the best word to describe me. I want to find a club that's willing to fight alongside me.'

Footballer handed suspended jail term for filming sexual encounter with woman
South Korean footballer Hwang Ui-jo received a suspended one-year jail sentence on Friday for illegally filming sexual encounters with a woman without her consent. The 32-year-old, who plays for Turkish club Alanyaspor, was suspended from the national team in 2023 amid the allegations. The striker was indicted for secretly filming two women without their consent on four occasions between June and September 2022. The Seoul Central District Court convicted him in one case but acquitted him in the other, suspending his sentence for two years. 'Considering that he filmed them with a cellphone during sexual intercourse against their will, the number of times the crime was committed and the specific details of the filmed material, the nature of the crime is not good,' the court said, according to Yonhap news agency. 'Given the seriousness of the socially harmful effects of illegal filming, it is necessary to punish strictly,' it said. However, the court noted that Hwang admitted to the crime, expressed remorse and that the video was shared on social media by a third party. Hwang Ui-jo's sister-in-law, who was not named, shared the videos despite 'knowing it would be disseminated indiscriminately', the Seoul Central District Court said in a verdict last year in March. 'The content has been widely distributed in and out of South Korea … the nature of her crime is very serious,' the court said. The footballer's sister-in-law was sentenced to three years in jail for sharing private videos of him to blackmail him. Hwang initially denied wrongdoing but later pleaded guilty. 'I send out a sincere apology to all those hurt by my wrongful actions,' Hwang said during his final testimony. 'I am also sorry for disappointing the people who have adored and cheered for me with my improper behaviour.' On Friday, when asked by reporters if he had anything to say to the victim after the case, Hwang responded that he was 'sorry'. 'I personally apologise to football fans and genuinely feel very sorry,' he added. Hwang played as a striker for clubs including Seongnam FC, Gamba Osaka, Bordeaux, and was an unused reserve for Nottingham Forest, and had been a key player for the South Korea national team before his suspension. In a statement to the judge last year in October, he said: 'I offer my sincerest apologies to the victims who have suffered because of my wrongdoings. I sincerely plead for the utmost leniency.'
