📰 *HR2*: Chelsea cancel victory parade after Manchester terror attack Chelsea have cancelled their Premier League victory parade planned for Sunday in the wake of the terror attack in Manchester that claimed 22 lives. The Stamford Bridge club, who face Arsenal in the FA Cup final on Saturday, issued a statement on Wednesday confirming their plans for a parade to mark their top-flight title triumph had been shelved. "Having consulted with the Metropolitan Police, Hammersmith and Fulham Council and other authorities, we know the emergency services would have been as professional as ever, but we would not want in any way to divert important resources by holding an additional, non-ticketed event on the streets of London," a statement read.

📰 *HR3*: Wenger 'won't be Arsenal manager for 26 years' after Ferguson backing Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has welcomed support from Sir Alex Ferguson, though he does not expect to match his former rival by reaching 26 years at the Emirates Stadium. Former Manchester United manager Ferguson issued a staunch defence of under-pressure Wenger this week, describing the Frenchman's critics as "ridiculous" and insisting long-term reigns do bring about success. Wenger appreciated the kind words from the Scot and confirmed he was unlikely to match the length of his reign at Old Trafford, an achievement that would require him to stay at the Emirates Stadium for another five seasons. "No, I don't think I will match him on that front," Wenger, who is out of contract at the end of the campaign, said ahead of Arsenal's FA Cup final against Chelsea on Saturday.

📰 *HR5*: Christian Atsu leaves Chelsea and joins Newcastle on permanent four-year deal Premier League champions Chelsea have confirmed their latest summer departure, with newly-promoted Newcastle United exercising their option to sign loanee Christian Atsu on a permanent deal for an undisclosed fee. The Ghanaian winger has signed a four-year deal at St James' Park after helping Championship winners Newcastle bounce back to the Premier League at the first attempt under Rafael Benitez. He initially signed for the Magpies on a season-long loan in August 2016 and went on to score five goals in 35 appearances across all competitions. Atsu arrived at Chelsea from Porto in September 2013 but failed to make a single competitive first-team appearance for the club. He was immediately loaned to Vitesse Arnhem and later struggled to register a discernible impact during further temporary stints with Everton and Bournemouth. The 25-year-old also spent the second half of last season in La Liga with Malaga.
