• Wolves handed Nunes boost as midfielder has red card overturned

  Wolves will have Matheus Nunes available for their next three matches after their appeal to the Football Association (FA) was upheld.

  Nunes, an unused substitute, was sent off late on in Wolves' 4-2 home defeat to fellow strugglers Leeds United on Saturday.

  The Portugal international had been remonstrating with the officials over the decision to allow Leeds' fourth goal, scored by Rodrigo, to stand despite what appeared to be a foul by Marc Roca in the build-up.

  Julen Lopetegui confirmed Nunes was complaining about the linesman and that they would appeal the decision, with referee Michael Salisbury having incorrectly sent the midfielder off for violent conduct, which would have resulted in him missing games against Nottingham Forest, Chelsea and Brentford.

  Wolves will be without Jonny, however, after the defender was sent off for a lunge on Luke Ayling.

  The defeat left Wolves in 13th place in the Premier League, one point above Leeds and just three clear of the relegation zone.

  Lopetegui thought his side were hard done by, with the former Spain coach claiming Wolves should have had a penalty.

  "I'm not waiting for [further apologies]. I just want them [the officials] to do their job," he said.

• Neville keen for new stadium as deadline for Man Utd takeover bids approaches

  Gary Neville is keen for Manchester United to have a new home, telling prospective bidders to modernise the club.

  The Glazer family's tenure in charge at Old Trafford could be nearing a conclusion, having announced in November that they were exploring options for a sale.

  Last week saw visits to the club from Sheikh Jassim Bin Hamad Al Thani's delegation and Jim Ratcliffe, both of whom are the running for a potential takeover – though there could be as many as eight bidders.

  Former United captain Neville is keen for whoever takes charge to invest significantly in the club's infrastructure, including the construction of a new stadium.

  "I think we've got to make sure that whoever the new owners are in the next few months, that they harness what the club's history is about, and also take Manchester United forward into a modern era," he told ITV News.

  "You look back at the past in terms of what we are and what we should be, but also I think we need to be a modern football club, with a new stadium, a new infrastructure.

  "The training ground needs to be brought up to speed and the sporting project needs to be world class.

  "And there needs to be that feeling among the fans again, that everyone's aligned on the same page - they haven't had that for the last eight-to-10-years."

  While United are perceived to have fallen behind to their rivals off the field, significant gains have been made under the stewardship of Erik ten Hag.

  The Dutch boss guided United to League Cup glory in February, the club's first trophy since 2017, with further honours up for grabs with the campaign in the FA Cup and Europa League continuing.

  Those improvements have impressed Neville, who added: "I think the thing about Manchester United for me is that the football can never be boring.

  "You always have to go to a game feeling that you're going to see something exciting.

  "The lads that wear those shirts out on the pitch, they have to look like they're engaged and they've got a spirit and they want to be here.

  "You think about how bad it was at the end of last season to what it is now - a huge turnaround."

• Hojbjerg tells Conte to 'elaborate' on outburst that has left him on brink of Spurs sack

  Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg told Antonio Conte to "elaborate" on the remarkable outburst that has left him on the brink of being sacked as Tottenham manager.

  The fiery Italian boss said he saw "selfish players" who "do not want to play under pressure" after his side were pegged back in a 3-3 Premier League draw by Southampton on Saturday.

  Conte also seemingly took aim at the club's hierarchy when he said: "20 years there is the owner and they never won something. Why?"

  Spurs are now expected to wield the axe during the international break. Hojbjerg said he can understand Conte's frustration given disappointing exits in the FA Cup and Champions League to Sheffield United and Milan respectively but thinks there should be a clearer message to help the team get to where they want to be.

  "We've all seen it," Hojbjerg told reporters while on Denmark duty. 

  "[It was a] very honest and very open press conference he gave. It is because he is not satisfied. You don't do that if you've reached the quarter-final of the Champions League and if you're in the semi-final of the FA Cup.

  "It comes from the fact that, unfortunately, we did not get the results we as a team and club wanted. We are still where we want and need to be in the Premier League. But yes, it's hard, I should say.

  "I understand that if you want to be successful as a team, you need 11 men who are committed to a project and a culture. But I think he has to elaborate on how he feels before you as a player can start measuring and weighing.

  "The coach has not been satisfied, and that is what I will take with me. You do what you can to please him. What I do know about myself is that I am an honest player. I am a player who always gives 100 per cent of myself for the team."

  When asked if he felt Conte was right to take the course of action he did, Hojbjerg replied: "Fortunately, I am not the one to judge it.

  "If that's how he sees it, then you have to be a little more precise in order for you as a player to take it to heart."

  He did confirm, though, that Conte did not give his players prior warning of the tirade that was to come.

  "He didn't tell us what he wanted to say at the press conference," he said.

  "But it is clear that you work with each other every day, you want the best for each other and you want to be successful together. And sometimes the waves go high in football."

  Spurs are fourth in the table but each of Newcastle United, Liverpool and Brighton and Hove Albion own games in hand in a congested fight for Champions League football.

  They return to action at home to Everton on April 3.
