KSI manager claims YouTuber ‘rejected more than $300m in sponsors’
The manager of popular YouTuber KSI has claimed the star rejected over $300 million in sponsorships and brand deals. In an episode of True Geordie's podcast on 8 October, manager and Misfits president Mams Taylor lifted the lid on the staggering amount KSI (real name Olajide 'JJ' Olatunji) turned down. "JJ and I have rejected maybe 300 plus million dollars since we started working together," Taylor, who started working with the YouTuber in 2018, alleged. He suggested that the offers "didn't align with making [KSI] happy," or were too demanding. The Man Behind KSI’s Empire, Misfits Boxing & Prime Hydration www.youtube.com KSI is set to go head-to-head with Tommy Fury on Saturday 14 October, as the pair make last-minute preparations ahead of the fight. August's press conference already got the hotly anticipated match off to a heated start when John Fury flipped over tables in anger. The pair will take to the ring before KSI's rival-turned-business-partner Logan Paul takes on Dillon Danis for the main event. In recent months, Danis has caused controversy when he harshly hit out at Paul's fiancee, Nina Adgal, on social media. He targeted Adgal with misogynistic trolling including old footage from her Snapchat and photos with previous partners. Subsequently, she filed a lawsuit seeking damages of £120,000 and has requested that the judge ban Danis from posting more sexually explicit images that could damage her reputation. The fight will take place at Manchester's AO Arena from 7pm GMT. It will also be available to stream on DAZN. Sign up for our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Have your say in our news democracy.

Former chairman David Bernstein condemns FA’s response to Israel terror attacks
The former chairman of the Football Association, David Berstein, has criticised English football’s response to the terror attacks in Israel. Talks are set to begin on whether there will be a display of solidarity at Wembley ahead of Friday’s friendly against Australia, following the deadly attacks by Hamas militants over the weekend. It has become common for the FA to light up the Wembley arch in the colours of nations affected by major tragedies, but Bernstein, who is Jewish, has been critical of the lack of response from the organisation. Bernstein, who was chairman of the FA from 2011 to 2013 told The Telegraph: “I am shocked, hurt, but not totally surprised that the Football Association has not yet had time to consider its reaction to the murder of nearly 1,000 people. “I note how speedily it has reacted to other situations and I would welcome an explanation as to why the tragedy in Israel should be perceived so differently by the FA. “I also note this is in stark contrast to our Government, and particularly the Prime Minister, who has found time to respond appropriately to this horrendous situation.” Last year, the Wembley arch was lit up in the colours of Ukraine following Russia’s invasion of the country, while there was a display of solidarity before the Carabao Cup final between Liverpool and Chelsea that weekend. There have been other displays in the UK since the terror attacks on Israel, with the national flag projected onto No 10 Downing Street and City Hall in London. However, there has yet to be a decision on whether there will be a display on Friday when England host Australia at Wembley. The chief executive of the FA, Mark Bullingham, told reporters in Nyon on Tuesday that the organisation had been busy preparing the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland’s bid for the 2028 European Championships. The Premier League has yet to decide whether it will show solidarity to Israel, but the English top-flight has more time to evaluate a plan given the international break runs until next weekend. There are fixtures in the Women’s Super League this weekend, however. England play Australia on Friday in an international friendly before hosting Italy in the Euro 2024 qualifiers, also at Wembley, on Tuesday. Uefa has announced that Israel’s Euro 2024 qualifier against Switzerland has been postponed until November. Uefa has also postponed all matches scheduled in Israel over the next two weeks.
