Cristiano Ronaldo is 36 clear of Lionel Messi and 40 ahead of the nearest active European (Lewandowski).

Brighton head coach Graham Potter said, “We’re delighted that he’s with us for next season. Danny has demonstrated what is expected of a top professional from the moment he arrived here. As soon as the season finished, extending his stay at the club was a top priority.

“He is a brilliant role model to have around the place and his experience at the very top end of the game is invaluable for helping us continuing to improve as a team.”

The BBC has confirmed that police officer Benjamin Monk was found guilty of the manslaughter of Atkinson but cleared of his murder.

The jurors at Birmingham Crown Court took more than 18 hours to reach unanimous verdicts on the manslaughter charge against Monk. They cleared him of Mr Atkinson’s murder.

The 48-year-old former Aston Villa, Sheffield Wednesday and Ipswich Town striker had been shouting in the street in the early hours of the morning on August 15 outside his father’s house in Telford.
