Former Chelsea coach, Maurizio Sarri, has revealed he smokes 60 sticks of cigarette a day.
The 60-year-old averages around four packets of cigarettes a day and he has admitted it’s getting out of control.
“I smoke 60 a day, which is probably a few too many,” he revealed to La Nuova Riviera via Football Italia. That works out at a whopping £1,400 every month.
“I don’t particularly feel the need to smoke during games, but straight afterwards it really is necessary,” he added.
A mother, 52, and her daughter, 20, reported a hired assassin to police after they paid him to carry out a murder but he didn’t follow through.
The mother and her daughter paid the daughter’s boyfriend a deposit of €7,000 to kill the mother’s partner and sell his organs after the boyfriend allegedly told them that he was a government spy and needed the cash to find and kill him.
Police sources said the mother and daughter hoped the sale of their victim’s organs would help them to recover €60,000 (£53,765) allegedly stolen from the mother.
But he ended up not carrying out the murder so the mother and daughter went to police in Spain to make a formal complaint about losing the money.
The daughter’s boyfriend, who claimed to have won a string of medals as a secret agent for Spanish official intelligence agency CNI, was arrested hours later.
Detectives have also seized a contract signed by the trio which stated the killing would be carried out by a group specialising in anti-terrorist operations between 60 and 180 days after the written agreement was made.
All three are Spanish and police sources said none has a criminal record. They are currently on bail after being released by a judge after questioning pending an ongoing court probe.

While experts are yet to proffer lasting solution to the disturbing emotional trauma and the adverse effects it exerts on its victims, plus sized Nollywood actress, Monalisa Stephen has proffered a solution.
According to the curvy actress, depressed people considering suicide as an option only need to think of two things, sex and food, and they would probably change their minds on committing suicide.
“Are you depressed and want to commit suicide? Wait a minute, just wait. Think about food and sex; oh my God, they are so sweet to just let go like that. No o, we die here o”, she suggested.
Monalisa who on account of her size and physique get several overtures from the opposite sex advised men to quit seeing fat girls as sex objects.
“Some of you see fat girls and you have nothing for them but to see them as a sexual object to warm you; that’s wrong. Fat girls are just human. Do not see them as a sex object or fetish. Some of you will even come and say “send me your nude”, nude kill you there.
“If you really want a woman, then love her for whom and what she is, not trying to get to her so you can experience the rubbish fantasy you have in your head. Don’t tell me you want a fat girl or you love fat girls. Good for you, it’s none of my business. I’m not your play thing, I’m just a normal girl”, she blurted.

A High Court in Abuja has ruled that graduates who did not participate in the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) scheme are qualified to run for governorship election.
Justice M.A Mohammed gave the ruling in a pre-election suit filed by Senator Iyabo Anisulowo, challenging the eligibility of Ogun state governor, Dapo Abiodun, contesting the state governorship election.
Abiodun in his CFOO1 form submitted to INEC last year, indicated he did not have NYSC discharge certificate. Abiodun did not participate in the compulsory NYSC program, even though he finished his first degree in 1986.
Anisulowo had asked the court to disqualify Abiodun as the APC governorship candidate since he failed to participate in the mandatory NYSC scheme.
At the hearing of the case yesterday June 26th, Wale Ajayi, the governor’s counsel, requested that the court set aside the case, since it was never stated that the participation in the NYSC scheme was a criterion to hold public office.
Delivering judgement, Justice Mohammed held that the NYSC Act does not make provision for the disqualification of a candidate who failed to participate in its scheme. He said that a candidate can only be disqualified under Section 177 of the constitution which states that
“a person shall be qualified for election to the office of Governor of a State if:
(a) he is a citizen of Nigeria by birth;
(b) he has attained the age of thirty-five years;
(c) he is a member of a political party and is sponsored by that political party; and
(d) he has been educated up to at least School Certificate level or its equivalent.”

Fresh reports now indicate that the man who was picked up by a helicopter in the middle of a huge traffic jam along the Benin-Ore road was someone who had suffered a stroke.
Contrary to earlier reports that the helicopter had landed on the highway to pick up a billionaire who had been stuck in a four-hour long traffic jam, the helicopter operator says it is normal to respond to emergency calls.
Femi Adeniji from Tropical Arctic Logistics told the BBC that he didn’t understand why the video had caused such a fuss. He said it was normal for their company to respond to emergency situations, as there is no such public emergency service available – and they had done so six times in the last two months.
According to him, there was no truth in the speculation that the helicopter was called by a billionaire who wanted to escape the huge traffic jam. Instead he said that the man had been suffering from high blood pressure and his driver had panicked. A doctor who was also stuck in the traffic was helping the man and the helicopter was called.
