“Mercy Johnson not her real name”

A woman who bears a striking resemblance to Mercy Johnson has claimed to be the biological mother of the Nigerian actress. She narrated that she got married to a Nigerian from Kogi state and had three children with him. She was pregnant with her fourth child when her mother came from Cameroon to inform her about her father who was critically sick and wanted to see his grandchildren before passing.

She has been moving to and fro Nigeria for over 30 years to find her kids, but to no avail. She claims that when she finally found Mercy, the actress asked for a DNA test to confirm her story. She went to the hospital and met with Mercy’s husband, Prince Okojie. She added that Mercy’s husband denied knowing her and said she was not the person whom he paid Mercy’s bride price to. She told him that she was not there to take his wife away from him. Prince Okojie agreed to pay for the DNA test but told her to take care of her own bills. The woman found this embarrassing as she had spent all her money on transportation costs to Nigeria. She insisted that she was not after Mercy’s money because she has been surviving on her own all these years. She also revealed that Mercy’s birth name is Ngei Magdalene and that she was born in 1982. She is willing to take the DNA test. Mercy had invited her to Nigeria, but she has been struggling to survive as she has no home here. “I gave birth to her at a private hospital in Benue state. She is aware that I am her biological mother and she knows that Mercy Johnson is not her real name. In fact when I came to Nigeria she asked me what’s my real name and I told her”, she said in part.

Real Madrid confirms signing Jude Bellingham

Real Madrid has completed the signing of England midfielder Jude Bellingham from Borussia Dortmund on a six-year deal. The English teenage midfielder was signed for a fee of €103 million (£88m) that could potentially rise to €133.9m (c. £114m) with add-ons. The initial fee means Bellingham is now the second-most expensive English footballer after Jack Grealish, for whom Manchester City paid Aston Villa £100m in 2021.

He is also the third-most expensive teenager in history. The Spanish club said in a statement; “Real Madrid CF and Borussia Dortmund have agreed on the transfer of the player Jude Bellingham, who will remain linked to our club for the next six seasons.” The La Liga side failed to retain either the Champions League or domestic league trophy this season under Carlo Ancelotti, and have moved swiftly to recruit the player that was widely regarded as their priority target for the summer transfer window. Jude Bellingham who is leaving Dortmund after a season he was named the Bundesliga Player of the Year, will be presented a Real Madrid player on Thursday, June 15, at 11am.

It’s been an honour to wear your jersey so many times, in big and small moments. Even though I look forward to my next destination, I will never forget the journey there. Once Borussia always Borussia. All the best for the future.” Bellingham moved to Borussia Dortmund from English second-tier boyhood club Birmingham City in 2020. During his time with the German team, Bellingham became a key player in his 132 appearances, scoring 24 goals and providing 25 assists. He has been included in Gareth Southgate’s latest England squad for the upcoming Euro 2024 qualifiers against Malta and North Macedonia, but will not feature in the games.

Real Madrid reach agreement to sign Bellingham in over €100m deal

Real Madrid have reportedly reached an agreement to sign Borussia Dortmund’s Jude Bellingham in a deal worth over €100m (£86m). The Athletic reported that the 19-year-old English footballer who was previously linked to Manchester City and Liverpool, will undergo a medical with the Spanish club in the coming days.

Source: Getty The deal which is believed to be one of the largest transfer fees in both clubs’ histories has not been signed, but that is among the formalities that will follow. Unlike Real Madrid, Premier League suitor Manchester City ‘has not submitted offers or provided financial numbers to Dortmund or Bellingham regarding a transfer fee or salary’. Bellingham has made more than 130 appearances since joining Dortmund from Birmingham for just over £20 million three years ago. He impressed in the Champions League and was a key player as Dortmund narrowly missed out on the Bundesliga title this season. Bellingham also made his England debut after moving to Dortmund and was a regular starter for Gareth Southgate’s side at the 2022 World Cup. Bellingham has played the most minutes (2,691) of any Dortmund outfield player in the Bundesliga this season. He also scored 14 goals in all competitions. Bellingham at a match for England. Source: Getty He will join a midfield at Madrid that includes Luka Modric, Fede Valverde, Toni Kroos, and Aurelien Tchouameni. Former Real Madrid and Liverpool winger Steve McManaman believes Bellingham will “be treated like a King” if he completes a move to the Bernabeu. If the deal falls through, Bellingham will become the third most expensive teenager signed in football history. His fee will put him just behind Joao Felix’s £115million move to Atletico Madrid and Kylian Mbappe’s £130million switch to Paris Saint-Germain. It will also make him the most expensive English teenager in football history, rising above Luke Shaw’s £33.75 million price tag for his move from Southampton to Man United in 2014. Los Blancos have also set their sights on Bellingham’s England teammate Harry Kane, with Carlo Ancelotti making it clear he wants the striker.

Benzema scores in final match for Real Match after confirming exit

French footballer, Karim Benzema is leaving Real Madrid on a high note as he scored in his final match for the Spanish club he has spent 14 years at. Reuters had reported that the 35-year-old has reached a multi-million agreement with reigning Saudi Pro League champions Al-Ittihad, managed by former Wolves boss Nuno Espirito Santo and will sign a two-year deal.

The club said in a statement; “Real Madrid C.F. and our captain Karim Benzema have agreed to put an end to his brilliant and unforgettable time as a player for our club. Real Madrid wants to show its gratitude and all its affection for a player who is already one of our greatest legends. “Karim Benzema’s career at Real Madrid has been an example of behaviour and professionalism, and he has represented the values of our club. Karim Benzema has earned the right to decide his future … Real Madrid is and will always be his home, and we wish him and his entire family all the best in this new phase of his life.” During his final match for Real Madrid today, Benzema scored from a penalty to make it 1-1, after Madrid defender Eder Militao was fouled inside the box. The French forward, whose Madrid goal tally now stands at 354, was soon subbed off and received a standing ovation from the fans.

The centre-forward had been expected to stay at Madrid for one more season until June 2024 but is opting instead to accept a new challenge. Benzema joined Madrid from Lyon in 2009 and, after a difficult start, found a place alongside Ronaldo and Gareth Bale as one of the club’s most successful forward lines. He took on the mantle of Madrid’s lead goal scorer when Ronaldo left in 2018 and had a career-best season last year, scoring 27 times in La Liga and 15 times in the Champions League as the club won both trophies. That form was recognized when Benzema was awarded the Ballon d’Or in October.

Hazard to leave Real Madrid after poor four-year spell

Belgian football star, Eden Hazard will leave Real Madrid at the end of this month, a year before the expiration of his contract. The Belgian signed for the La Liga giants in 2019 following a hugely successful stint at Chelsea, but injuries affected most of his spell there. Hazard in action for Real Madrid. Source: Getty During his time at Real Madrid, he scored seven goals in 76 appearances, 10 of which came in all competitions in the 2022/23 season. Among the trophies won at the club are two La Liga titles, one Champions League, and one Copa Del Rey. Confirming that Hazard will leave the club after the final match of the season on Sunday, June 4, Real Madrid said in a statement; “Real Madrid CF and Eden Hazard have reached an agreement whereby the player will be released from the club as of June 30, 2023. “Hazard has been part of our club for four seasons, in which he has won eight titles: one European Cup, one Club World Cup, one European Super Cup, two leagues, one Copa del Rey and two Spanish Super Cups.

Having the midfielder off the wage bill for next season will potentially allow Real to target a new forward, with coach Carlo Ancelotti admitting he expects a number of fresh faces to arrive. The Athletic have reported that ‘retirement is an option’ for Hazard but a decision has not yet been made. He had a very poor World Cup outing in Qatar with Belgium and announced his retirement from international football after the tournament.
