Trayvon Martin was tragically killed on Feb 26, 2012 at the hands of former Neighborhood Watch captain George Zimmerman, who was allegedly racially profiling him at the time for being suspicious. The case sparked nationwide outrage, with protesters calling for justice for the 17-year-old boy. During a memorial held for her son a decade later, Trayvon’s mother, Sybrina Fulton, said, “If you don’t do anything else, don’t give up. That’s my message. Don’t ever give up. Ten years later and I’m still standing strong.” Here’s everything you need to know about the trial surrounding Trayvon’s shooting and death.

Sometimes, the sidelines are the most fun place to be…at least Prince George, 8, made them look that was as he hilariously stuck out his tongue and whispered with parents Prince William and Kate Middleton while attending a rugby match on Feb. 26. The trio were all smiles, class, and British spirit in new photos, where they chuckled amongst themselves, sang along to the national anthem, and cheered on their home team.

Rihanna is ‘proud’ to show off her bare baby bump as her boyfriend and father of her baby, A$AP Rocky, is making ‘sure she’s comfortable 100 percent of the time’ during her pregnancy.

Kanye West says he takes issue with Kim Kardashian's claim that the rapper's «been putting a lot of misinformation regarding our private matters and co-parenting on social media,» because he says she can't prove he wrote the social media posts.According to new legal documents, obtained by ET, the rapper claims Kim's allegations of «misinformation» is «double hearsay.» He claims that his estranged wife, for starters, never bothered to attached the said social media posts to her declaration and «Kim needed to offer the social media posts into evidence» as well as «show that the posts were written by Kanye.»The rapper claims that had that been done, «the posts would be admissible as statements» but since Kim didn't submit the social media posts in her declaration, it's therefore not in the record. And as such, West wants Kim's «misinformation» statement to be inadmissible at a hearing next week when a judge is set to decide whether to grant Kim's request that she be declared legally single.Kim filed legal docs earlier this week saying Kanye's «misinformation» campaign on social media «has created emotional distress.» Among some of those posts includes attacking her boyfriend, Pete Davidson.

Manchester United midfielder Kleberson says Youri Tielemans should avoid moving to Old Trafford this summer, urging him to join Chelsea instead.The Leicester City star has just a year-and-a-half left on his current contract and is expected to leave at the end of the season amid strong speculation linking him to United.But Kleberson feels that the move would be a "big risk" and insists Tielemans would be better suited to Thomas Tuchel's side as they are "more comfortable with the ball.""Youri Tielemans is not at a big club. Leicester City don’t have the pulling power that some of the other Premier League teams possess," Kleberson said speaking to Paddy Power."I could see Tielemans going to Chelsea because their style would suit him.

Since Ralf Rangnick took charge at Old Trafford, Manchester United have been tipped to sign a number of top Bundesliga players including Denis Zakaria and Amadou Haidara to name but two.

Arsenal fans will have loved Armando Broja's celebration against Tottenham Hotspurs earlier this month.Broja has been one of the breakout stars of the Premier League campaign this season, and he continued his golden vein of form with a strike against Spurs.The youngster then ran in front of the Spurs supporters as he let out a massive roar in front of the fans.And with Arsenal linked to the Chelsea loanee, they'll be licking their lips at the cheeky celebration.Mikel Arteta is reportedly a big fan of the English-born Albanian international, and the Gunners could make their move in the summer.According to football.london, Arteta could look to Broja to solve his attacking woes.Arsenal will be without a recognised striker in June with both Eddie Nketiah and Alexandre Lacazette out of contract in the summer.On top of that, Arsenal lost Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang to Barcelona on Transfer Deadline Day after the Gabonese international had failed to make a first-team appearance since December.Meanwhile, Arteta also missed out on Dusan Vlahovic, who moved to Juventus from Fiorentina. Should Broja move to Arsenal, or does he deserve a chance at Chelsea? Let us know in the comments section Thomas Tuchel, earlier this season, said: “He’s our player and he’s doing good, but at the same time it’s only half a season, so he needs to continue to improve and to make his statement at Southampton.“We have a reason why they are our players, they have quality and mentality and now they are out there on their own in different environments and clubs and proving themselves.“Armando’s getting better and better, he’s a very unique player with unique strengths in his game - he has speed, he’s robust and he’s a goalscorer.”

Manchester City remain at the Premier League summit with Liverpool and Chelsea trailing behind.

football.london.Broja had not made an appearance for Chelsea before being sent out on loan, though he has always been tipped to have a bright future while working his way up through the academy.With Arteta building a squad with young talents that will improve and create a star-studded squad when those players continue to improve, it is no surprise that the 20-year-old is one of his top targets.But Chelsea are expected to be incredibly reluctant to part ways with their academy graduate given that they are starting to look short of a different option in the final third.Romelu Lukaku has struggled to set the league alight since his return from Inter Milan, and Timo Werner is continuing to look better utilised as a winger rather than through the middle.Discussing Broja earlier this season, Thomas Tuchel said: “He’s our player and he’s doing good, but at the same time it’s only half a season, so he needs to continue to improve and to make his statement at Southampton.“We have a reason why they are our players, they have quality and mentality and now they are out there on their own in different environments and clubs and proving themselves.“Armando’s getting better and better, he’s a very unique player with unique strengths in his game - he has speed, he’s robust and he’s a goalscorer.”Chelsea rejected a bid from Southampton last month for the no.9 which could be a sign of how highly the club rate Broja and thus how unlikely it is that the Stamford Bridge outfit will accept a bid from Arsenal for the star.

Chelsea won the tournament for the first time in their history as they beat South American champions Palmeiras 2-1 after extra time in the United Arab Emirates on Saturday.Kai Havertz's penalty three minutes from the end of extra time sealed victory after Romelu Lukaku had seen his second-half header cancelled out during normal time.The Blues avenged their defeat to Corinthians in 2012 and became the third English club to be crowned world champions after Liverpool and Manchester United.However, it was the antics of their German defender that caught Chelsea fans' eyes following Havertz's late winning goal.As the players gathered in the corner to celebrate the goal and congratulate Havertz, Rudiger was seen acting bizarrely.Firstly, he picked up a foldaway chair from the other side of the advertising hoardings and slammed it on the top of the hoardings before waving it about.Will Chelsea finish in the top four this season? Let us know in the comments section below.He then chucked it back over as Jorginho attempted to get him to join in with the celebratory huddle.Instead, Rudiger swung a wild punch at the corner flag, lightly brushing the flag before running off back towards the centre circle in celebration.Chelsea's celebrations were well-earned, as it had looked as if Palmeiras were going to take the Champions League winners all the way to penalties.Lukaku's 54th-minute header had Thomas Tuchel's side in front for just 10 minutes before Raphael Vega levelled the score again from the penalty spot.However, the Brazilian giants would end the match with 10 men after Luan Garcia was given his marching orders at the end of extra time.The defender's sliding challenge cleaned out Havertz as he ran through on goal in the sixth

Chelsea’s summer transfer window as he reportedly lines up a move for Jules Kounde.Kounde was a target for the Blues last summer, but their move for the Sevilla star collapsed on deadline day after a disagreement over the fee.The 23-year-old has starred for Sevilla since joining the La Liga side in 2019, helping them to win the Europa League and playing a key role in their unexpected title challenge this season.Tuchel has been keen to improve his defensive options for some time, with Antonio Rudiger, Cesar Azpilicueta and Andreas Christensen all out of contract in the summer.French international Kounde is one of his top targets, with Chelsea expected to launch a renewed effort to sign him.But they are facing competition from Barcelona, with Xavi hoping to upset Tuchel’s well-laid transfer plans.According to Sport, Barca are ‘keen’ to sign a replacement for veteran defender and club legend Gerard Pique.Xavi believes that Kounde is the ‘ideal man’ to take Pique’s place in Barca’s backline, following his impressive performances for Sevilla.Who do you think Jules Kounde should join: Chelsea or Barcelona? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section...The Barcelona boss is thought to be a ‘massive fan’ of the centre-back, who has helped Sevilla to secure 12 clean sheets in all competitions this season.Defence is the next area on Xavi’s shopping list, having successfully bolstered his attack in the January window with the signings of Ferran Torres and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.But that outlay could leave them struggling to compete with Chelsea’s financial strength, with Barca still suffering financial problems.Want to be on the ball with all of the latest football news?Well then sign up for the brilliant Daily Star

Chelsea defender Antonio Rudiger wants £225,000-a-week to stay at Stamford Bridge amid transfer interest from Manchester City - according to reports.

Romelu Lukaku has been blasted by fans online for his lacklustre marking that led to Plymouth Argyle to go 1-0 up against Chelsea. In the FA Cup Fourth Round at Stamford Bridge, the Pilgrims opened the scoring when Macaulay Gillesphey nodded them in front on eight minutes after he latched onto a free-kick.Subsequent replays, however, showed that it was Lukaku who was supposed to be marking the defender, and it looked as though the 28-year-old hardly jumped in an attempt to win the ball.Blues fans fumed online, saying that the Belgian was being ‘weak’ for not defending the ball well.One supporter wrote: “Lukaku weak as s*** there.”Another raged: “Incredibly weak from Lukaku.”Someone wrote: “Ffs….

Manchester United are reportedly leading the chase to sign Barcelona defender Ronald Araujo with a 'large investment' in the works.Araujo, 22, has featured heavily this season for both the Catalan club and his country Uruguay, who he has seven caps for.Now into the final 18 months of his contract at the Camp Nou, he is attracting the attention of some of Europe's top clubs.Marca claim he is receiving most interest from the Premier League.And at the moment it is the Red Devils who are said to be 'bidding the strongest' for his signature to bolster their ranks.They are willing to splash the cash on him as he seems to be a centre-back who will dominate for years to come.However, their Prem rivals Man City and Chelsea are also both keen on Araujo.In fact, Pep Guardiola was this week pictured having dinner with his agent Edmundo Kabchi.Thomas Tuchel, meanwhile, may have to replace three defenders in Antonio Rudiger, Andreas Christensen and Cesar Azpilicueta this summer. Where should United spend their money this summer? Let us know in the comments section. For their part, Barca want to tie Araujo down to a new contract, but have struggled to do so thus far.They opened talks with his representatives all the way back before the pandemic.But the financial issues they've since ran into has prevented them from wrapping up the piece of business.They have now somewhat relieved their money problem by cutting down their wage bill considerably.However, Araujo turned down their recent offer of a new and improved deal.Resolving his renewal is one of the La Liga side's priorities, and they are encouraged by the fact that he is eager to stay where he is.Whether they can match his financial demands or United can beat them remains to be

Manchester United target Amadou Haidara 'didn't want' a January move away from RB Leipzig according to RB Leipzig chief Christopher Vivell.

Thomas Tuchel has already identified a trio of summer transfer targets to improve his squad after Chelsea ended the winter window without any new arrivals.Having spent heavily last summer with a cool £97.5m deal for Romelu Lukaku, Roman Abramovich was unwilling to loosen the purse strings in January.The Blues' no.1 target was Emerson, a player already on their books, but a compensation fee of £3.3m was rejected by Lyon and the player will now see out the rest of the season at the Groupama Stadium.Though Chelsea did manage to get one Brazilian loanee back through the door, Kenedy has returned prematurely from Flamengo, giving competition for places at left wing-back.Kenedy will now compete with Marcos Alonso for a starting berth after Tuchel was unable to recall compatriot Emerson.The Spaniard has filled in for first choice left-back Ben Chilwell, since the England international's season-ending injury against Juventus, but performances have been below par.The Blues have won just one of their last five Premier League matches, slipping to third in the table and are 10 points behind leaders Manchester City, who also have a game in hand.HAVE YOUR SAY!
