Meet Aston Villa signing Marco Asensio’s stunning Wag, who worked as a waitress in a nightclub and is now an architect

DESPITE losing Jhon Duran during the transfer window, Aston Villa were able to bolster their attack.

In came Man Utd outcast Marcus Rashford, to much fanfare from Villa’s support.

While, intriguingly, former Real Madrid star Marco Asensio joined on loan from PSG.

The 29-year-old Spain international had fallen out of favour at the Parc des Princes under Luis Enrique.

So, it’ll be a relief for Asensio that fellow Spaniard Unai Emery could offer him valuable game time instead.

Off the pitch, the attacking midfielder is very settled. He married longterm love, Sandra Garal in 2023.

The glam Wag has emerged as one of football’s most popular partners, as SunSport reveals.

Who is she?

The Spanish beauty, 30, graduated from Madrid’s Superior Technical School of Architecture.

She is an architect and interior designer by profession – and runs her own business.

But, it’s not all work and no play for Sandra who is a total fashionista.

On her Instagram, where she over 362,000 followers, she shares her enviable lifestyle.

That includes fashion shoots peddling online brands, including yoga wear from alo and jewellery by Luxenter.

She plays the role of Wag well – looking glam in designer wear.

Last year she attended Milan Fashion Week, where she shared glimpses inside the shows of Louis Vuitton and Elisabetta Franchi.

How they met

The couple met at a nightclub in Madrid in 2019.

Sandra was reportedly working as a waitress when Asensio laid eyes on her.

Early on, they kept their romance private.

However, that same year they were guests at Asensio’s former teammate Sergio Ramos’ wedding to Pilar Rubio.

Sandra and Asensio said their ‘I do’s’ at Mallorca’s La Fortaleza, in an intimate ceremony attended by close friends and family.

Asensio’s father was his best man, while guests included Gareth Bale and Rafael Nadal.

The winger has his own charity, Marco Asensio Foundation which is dedicated to supporting children with cancer and their families.

Instead of wedding gifts, they asked guests to make contributions to the organisation.

Don’t mention Dua Lia…

Bizarrely, before Asensio met Sandra he was linked to pop sensation Dua Lipa.

The Houdini singer performed in the opening ceremony of the Champions League final featuring his old club, Real Madrid and Liverpool.

However, Dua Lipa soon dismissed the reports – insisting she’d never met Asensio.

Addressing the rumours, she wrote on social media: “I haven’t even met Marco Asensio and it is highly unlikely I ever will as my Liverpool supporting manager would never forgive me.”

Dua Lipa’s loss was Sandra’s gain, and if his loan at Villa Park is a success maybe we will see her permanently on our shores.

Heartbroken mum & sister read tributes on emotional visit to school where boy, 15, was knifed to death

THE heartbroken family of schoolboy Harvey Willgoose have laid tributes at the scene of the 15-year-old’s death in Sheffield.

The tragic teenager was stabbed at All Saints Catholic School in Granville Road just after midday on Monday.

Mum Caroline and sister Sophie placed flowers and read emotional tributes during their visit this afternoon.

Horrified pupils watched on when he was knifed three times in a school courtyard yesterday.

Teachers raced to give emergency first aid as the school was put in
lockdown and an air ambulance flew in.

The lad was taken to hospital but he died soon after arrival.

A 15-year-old pupil was detained by police and taken into custody.

He was last night being quizzed on suspicion of murder.

The stabbing happened at 12.17pm as pupils moved between classes.

It was claimed the pair had exchanged threatening messages before the incident.

And it came after the school went into lockdown last Wednesday
after a pupil was alleged to have taken a blade in.

His sister Sophie said: “My heart is broken into a million pieces.”

She posted on Facebook: “I love you so much Harvey… Hug your loved ones a little tighter tonight cos I wish I could.”

Harvey’s grieving mother Caroline displayed photos of her son on TikTok and wrote: “No words.”

One furious parent said: “How can the school have allowed this to happen today?”

Will the Sheffield suspect be named?

By Holly Christodoulou, Digital Court Editor

USUALLY, a suspect who is arrested over a crime will not be named as the media is at risk of Contempt of Court.

This means that legally, anything that is published could cause a substantial risk of prejudice in case of a trial further down the line.

It is only in very rare cases that those in police custody will be identified as some suspects could later find themselves in the clear, which then causes a defamation risk.

Once proceedings become “active” – i.e. someone is charged – the police or the Crown Prosecution Service will name the suspect and release their age and address.

This will also appear on charge sheets and be heard in open court throughout the case.

However, with the Sheffield school stabbing, the boy held by police is only aged 15.

This means that even from the point of a charge – proceedings being active – we would not be able to name him.

He is protected under section 49 of the Children and Young Persons Act 1933.

This applies to any defendants who are aged under 18 and means their identity cannot be revealed.

Once they turn 18, unless any special reporting restrictions are placed by a judge, they can be named.

In some circumstances, when a person is found guilty or admits their crime, they may be unmasked in court regardless of their age.

This will sometimes happen pre-conviction too as in the case of Axel Rudakubana.

He was 17 at the point of his first court appearance but a judge lifted the reporting restriction as he was six days from his 18th birthday anyway.

In an update today, South Yorkshire Police warned communities “avoid online speculation” regarding the identity of the suspect.

A statement added: “At the heart of this devastation is a grieving family and they deserve respect and privacy during this difficult time.”

Sheffield Heeley Labour MP Louise Haigh said: “Serious questions will have to be answered.”

A fellow pupil paid tribute to the killed teenager.

The 17-year-old said: “He was such a lovely lad, he was cheeky, but was lovely.

“He would make your day better hearing him down that hallway. Teachers loved him, students loved him, everyone loved him.”

Describing the ordeal as “stressful” one pupil, 14, spoke after returning to the scene with her mum to lay flowers.

She said she was kept in the hall for more than three hours as police swarmed in.

Talking as she stood next to her mum, she said: “Some people were in the sports hall, some people in different classrooms.

“It was the beginning of lunch about 12.10. We got kind of of bored in there, I was in the hall and it was so hot in there because all the radiators were on.

“It’s hard to believe, it was stressful.”

A neighbour of the victim, standing beside a shrine of flowers and
candles outside his family home, said: “He went to school this morning and has not come home.

“He always seemed to have a smile on his face. So sad.”

Another neighbour said: “He and his dad were huge Sheffield United
fans. It is just too awful for words.”

'Avoid online speculation', South Yorkshire Police warns

A spokesman for the force said: “We are urging our communities to avoid online speculation and identifying anyone who they believe to be involved in the tragic incident at All Saints Catholic High School yesterday (Monday, February 3) to ensure justice can be secured for the victim and his family. 

“Identifying a suspect can prejudice court proceedings and risk a fair and accurate trial. 

“At the heart of this devastation is a grieving family and they deserve respect and privacy during this difficult time.

“We will take action against anyone who poses a risk to proceedings. Please consider what you share online and the implications.”

A Sheffield United Football Club spokesperson said: “All at Sheffield United were saddened to learn of the passing of Harvey, our deepest condolences are offered to his family and friends at this difficult time.

“We share the shock and distress of the community following this tragic incident and appreciate that discussions are underway with regards to tributes to remember Harvey.”

South Yorkshire Police’s Assistant Chief Constable Lindsey Butterfield
said: “We know that what has happened will cause significant distress
and concern.

“Our officers will remain on scene and in the local area to offer reassurance to parents, staff and local residents as our
investigation continues.”

South Yorkshire mayor Oliver Coppard said: “This morning a
teenage boy went to school like thousands of others across South Yorkshire but won’t come home.

“A young man who was a member of our community, with his
whole life ahead of him.

“My love, my thoughts and my prayers are with his family and friends, and the whole community of All Saints Catholic High School.”

PM Sir Keir Starmer said: “My heart goes out to the family and
loved ones of the boy, the staff and students at the school, and the
entire community of Sheffield.

“They are grieving the needless loss of a young life and the nation mourns with them.

“Our schools should be places of safety and learning, not violence and fear.

“Tonight a young boy should be returning to the love and safety of
his family.

“We stand and work together against the devastating consequences of knife crime, so no more families know this tragic loss.”

Public urged to protect justice for murdered schoolboy

SOUTH Yorkshire Police urged people not to speculate about the identity of the teenager arrested on suspicion of murder at a Sheffield school on Monday.

The force said: “We are urging our communities to avoid online speculation and identifying anyone who they believe to be involved in the tragic incident at All Saints Catholic High School yesterday to ensure justice can be secured for the victim and his family.

“Identifying a suspect can prejudice court proceedings and risk a fair and accurate trial.

Eurovision 2025 UK entry REVEALED as stunning girlband sign up to represent Great Britain

THE UK has chosen a girl band to represent them at the Eurovision Song Contest.

The Sun can reveal the group Remember Monday will be flying the flag for Brits come May.

Moving away from the popular Eurodance music of recent years, Remember Monday are a country trio.

It’s a stark contrast to last year when Years and Years frontman Olly Alexander represented the UK with pop song Dizzy.

A source said: “As ever behind the scenes competition has been fierce to represent the UK.

“This year bosses have opted to shake things up and send a female trio, Remember Monday.

“The song is a stark change from Olly Alexander last year but the girls are sure to get the nation behind them.”

The British country pop trio is made up of Lauren Byrne, Holly-Anne Hull and Charlotte Steele.

It’s not the first time the group have found themselves in a televised singing competition.

In 2019 they took part in The Voice and caught the eye of BBC Radio 2 Breakfast host Scott Mills when they were played on the station last year.

They have also performed at a string of major UK events including Country to Country, The Long Road and Buckle and Boots.

Remember Monday have also amassed a following of 524,000 followers on TikTok alone.

This year the Eurovision Song Contest will take place in  St Jakobshalle, Basel, Switzerland.

Last November Remember Monday embarked on a UK tour, a year and a half after their debut headline gig in February 2023.

Opening up about taking the leap from their normal jobs to be performers, Holly previously said: “It was now or ever, as cringy as that sounds. 

“We really loved the jobs we were in and we’d worked incredibly hard to get to the places that we were in career wise, so it was a really big redicion to leave those jobs.”

Last summer the trio also supported Billy Joel and Natasha Bedingfield at British SummerTime Festival in Hyde Park.
