Virtua Cop 2.

Christophe Galtier has stepped down as head coach of Lille just two days after they won the French league title. The 54-year-old helped Lille secure their first Ligue 1 championship in a decade on Sunday, finishing one point ahead of Paris St-Germain. He had been expected to leave after new owners took control of the club halfway through the season. "I simply have the deep belief that my time is up here," he told L'Equipe. He said he was moving on to avoid "falling into a routine". Lille later said they accepted his decision. How Lille pulled off a shock title triumph The announcement came after Lille took part in an open-top bus parade in the centre of the city to celebrate the title win with fans on Tuesday. Galtier took over at Lille in December 2017 following Marcelo Bielsa's time at the club - with the side in serious relegation danger. After keeping them up he then took Lille to second- and fourth-place finishes over the next two seasons before this season's title. Galtier has been linked with the managerial jobs at Nice and Lyon.

Uefa has opened disciplinary proceedings against Barcelona, Juventus and Real Madrid over their involvement in the proposed European Super League. The clubs were part of the 12 'founding' members of the breakaway league, which later collapsed. The other nine clubs renounced the project but Barcelona, Juventus and Real Madrid have refused to do so. Uefa said proceedings had been opened against the three "for a potential violation of Uefa's legal framework". In a statement released on Tuesday, Uefa said: "Following an investigation conducted by Uefa ethics and disciplinary inspectors in connection with the so-called 'Super League' project, disciplinary proceedings have been opened against Real Madrid, Barcelona and Juventus for a potential violation of Uefa's legal framework. "Further information will be made available in due course." Real Madrid, Barcelona & Juventus defend plans in face of Uefa 'threat' European Super League: Premier League brings in new owners' rule to stop repeat European Super League timeline: Game changer - football's volatile 72 hours The other nine clubs involved - Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Manchester City, Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur, AC Milan, Inter Milan and Atletico Madrid - have been punished by European football's governing body for their participation. They have agreed to make a combined 15m euro (£13.4m) goodwill contribution to benefit children's and grassroots football across Europe. They will also have 5% of Uefa competition revenues withheld for one season, starting in 2023-24, and this money will be redistributed, including in the UK. Each has also committed to Uefa and its competitions, with the clubs facing fines of 100m euros (£86.9m) apiece if they seek to join an unauthorised competition in the future. They will be fined half that if they breach any other terms of the declaration. Real Madrid president Florentino Perez, who was appointed as chairman of the ESL, recently said that the 12 clubs that agreed to join the project have "binding contracts" and "cannot leave".
