Northern Ireland bosses in demand as pair linked with lead roles in English game
St Mirren boss and former Northern Ireland midfielder Stephen Robinson has been linked with a move to Plymouth Argyle. Robinson led Saints to yet another top-six finish in the 2024/25 season, narrowly missing out on Europe on the final day of the campaign. Ipswich Town boss and Fermanagh man Kieran McKenna will be considered by Brentford if Thomas Frank leaves the club. Frank is a frontrunner for the Tottenham job after the Europa League winners axed Ange Postecoglou. Former Glentoran striker Andy Kirk, meanwhile, has left his role as assistant manager to Simo Valakari at St Johnstone. Sheffield United and Swansea City are considering a move for Leyton Orient and Northern Ireland midfielder Ethan Galbraith. In the Irish League, Larne have confirmed the departure of their centre-back Shaun Want. The former Hamilton defender is returning to Scotland for family reasons. Linfield and Dungannon Swifts will kick-off the 2025/26 season on Friday, July 4 after the Charity Shield date was confirmed by the NI Football League. The annual curtain-raiser, which sees the Premiership champions face the winners of the Irish Cup, will be played at Windsor Park with a 7:45pm kick-off. Tickets for the game will be priced at £10 with all profits going to Action Mental Health, NIFL's official charity partner, and can be purchased from the Linfield official website. Glentoran midfielder Josh Kelly has signed a new contract, extending his stay at the club until the end of the 2025/26 season. Glens boss Declan Devine stated: 'Josh was outstanding in pre-season ahead of last season, showing incredible attitude and determination to earn his place in the starting XI. 'His performances in the opening three games, playing at right-back, were exceptional and his injury was a huge blow, not just for him personally but for the entire squad. 'Football can be cruel, but Josh has never let his head drop. His work ethic throughout his rehabilitation has been outstanding.'

Richarlison responds to Harvey Elliott's bizarre gesture after bust-up in final seconds before Liverpool's title win
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) TOTTENHAM star Richarlison hit back at Harvey Elliott's bizarre taunt just moments before Liverpool sealed the Premier League title. The Reds officially won the league on Sunday after a 5-1 triumph over Spurs at Anfield to notch their 20th title and tie the record currently shared by rivals Manchester United. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 Liverpool ace Harvey Elliott had a bizarre bust-up with Tottenham star Richarlison 2 Elliott trolled Richarlison's Everton past before Liverpool won the Premier League Elliott, 22, came on as a late substitute on 76 minutes as he replaced Luis Diaz, who scored the Merseysiders' first cracker that cancelled out Dominic Solanke's opener before Alexis Mac Allister, Cody Gakpo and Mohamed Salah's goals as well as Destiny Udogie's own-goal. And the midfielder was determined to leave his mark as he registered a couple of shots. The England Under-21 international did just that when he tried to nutmeg Richarlison, 27, in the fourth minute of stoppage time. The ex-Everton star didn't take kindly to it and squared up to Elliott who pushed him away. The central midfielder's Liverpool team-mate Curtis Jones pulled him away and that is when he trolled the Brazil international. Elliott held up three fingers on one hand and gestured zero with the other. That seems to have been a dig against Richarlison's Everton past as he indicated that it has been 30 years since Liverpool's rivals won their last trophy - which was the FA Cup and Charity Shield. The winger surprisingly addressed the taunt on TikTok as he took to the comments' section of a video breaking down that intense confrontation.

The Tottenham star, who counts 106 goals in club football across his 10-year career - 53 with Everton and 20 with Spurs - poked fun at Elliott's total of 21 - seven of which were with Blackburn. Arne Slot shows his class as he leads Anfield in chant about Jurgen Klopp after sealing 20th title for Liverpool However, the Liverpool ace probably doesn't mind too much as he took part in the passionate Anfield celebrations, which marked the first time the club wins the Prem in front of a live crowd. And as expected there were some incredible images as fans broke down in tears, star man Salah took selfies with the crowd and manager Arne Slot paid tribute to his predecessor Jurgen Klopp.
