Juventus have made another approach for Chelsea midfielder Nemanja Matic. The Italian champions want to offer Chelsea £17m for the Serbia international and hand the player a salary worth £4.2m a year.

Rawlings told The Guardian in Ghana that “The high-level London conference on corruption offers an opportunity not only for countries in Africa and the developing world to revise and enhance their strategies for combating corruption, but also for developed countries whose banks have served as a safe haven for stolen wealth from Africa and elsewhere to repatriate those funds. “I also implore the international community to join the chorus for the return of the loot, especially to a country like Nigeria while she enjoys the leadership of a proven man of integrity.”  “Let us stop this support and ...
