for most of us, a dry day with blue sky and sunshine, this was shops earlier. a few sharp showers around towards the west. this evening and tonight, the odd shower around, not completely dry, but low cloud, some mist and fog, so it turns meike into the early hours of tomorrow. showers fading away from western areas, but our attention turns to the east with low cloud and showery rain in east anglia moving into the midlands. mild for most, but we could see lows of 3 or 4 across eastern scotland. that is how we start the day tomorrow, a lot of low cloud around parts of eastern scotland, eastern england and that will linger for some through the day. elsewhere, a cloudy and cool ear day with more showers cropping up, so they could be heavy and thundery for the south west of england towards northern ireland as well —— cooler day. showery rain further east, but it is hit—and—miss. you may keep the low

cloud and sea fog around the coast of north—east england towards the firth of forth and that pegs back temperatures in the mid—teens. most of his in the high teens. tuesday evening, the rain works further north and it is courtesy of this area of low pressure. that pushes further north as we move through the day on wednesday. breezy conditions with those outbreaks of rain. that rain on wednesday could be quite heavy particularly for the north—east of england into eastern scotland. elsewhere, sunny spells and a blustery shower. temperatures coming down a notch, it does look fairly unsettled, some heavy rain especially in the north—east in the middle of the week. but for most of us, a little bit more optimistic towards the bank holiday weekend. thank you. let'sjoin towards the bank holiday weekend. thank you. let's join our colleagues for the news where you are. good evening. hello and welcome to sportsday —

i'm gavin ramjaun. ahead of the curve and another title for guardiola, but how much longer will he continue to innovate and dominate in the premier league. in the premier league? in with the new for liverpool, who officially have their head coach to replacejurgen klopp as arne slot is officially confirmed by the club. and the build up begins for the paralympics — with 100 days to go, we hearfrom swimming hopeful grace harvey, as excitement builds. ifido my if i do my personal best and i get us forth i'll be happy with that. if it comes to being on the podium, i'm excited for that as well. also coming up on sportsday: the record breaking attempt at the three peaks... can imogen boddy get the better of one of toughest challenges in running. challenges in running? hello there, and welcome along to the programme.

the plaudits and the accolades just keep coming for manchester city manager pep guardiola. an historic 4th consecutive premier league crown yesterday, adding to an ever growing collection of trophies since becoming a top—level manager in 2008, guardiola has won 12 league titles across three countries, six of those now, in england at manchester city. he also won the champions league as part of a famous treble last season. champions league success something which evaded him at previous side bayern munich in germany. but three bundesliga titles came during his three years in charge there, with three titles in spain before that at barcelona, where guardiola started out as a coach which included two champions leagues. it really is an incredible streak in such a short space of time, so how much desire and drive is there to keep going. patrick geary�*s been looking at what could be next for the man many call a footballing genius. champions again!

repetitive, but endlessly innovative. six, count them six premier league titles for pep guardiola at manchester city, including an unprecedented four in a row. add to that last season's european cup and what worlds does guardiola have left to conquer? i had that feeling last season when we won istanbul. i said, it's over what i'm doing here? it's over. there's nothing left. i start to think about, oh, no one has done four in a row. why? and now i'm feeling it's done. so what next? it's about next season. right now, i'm not able to know exactly what will be the motivation to do it, because it's difficult sometimes to find it when everything is done. the immediate future is the fa cup final at wembley and the chance of a first double double. some place an asterisk around city's success because of the 115 premier league charges which hang over them. but guardiola's impacts in the game can be measured notjust in the trophies he's lifted, but the coaches he's raised. not least the manager of his closest

challengers, arsenal, who last week told the bbc what he'd learned from his mentor. how hard you have to work regardless what you have earned in the past, or the quality of the of the players that you have and then maintain that will that ambition and enthusiasm every single day to be willing to do more and be able to transmit that to the whole football club. and pep is extraordinary at that. the guardiola's style of football has evolved from his roots at barcelona and been molded by the faster and more physical game played in germany and england. you know it when you see it. the pressing, the passing, the awareness of space, spectacular when applied by the world's best chance for doku number five. but everyone does it now. this was ninth tier darlaston town in fa cup qualifying, playing their version of the pep way. spanish football journalist guillem balague has seen it

in his role as chairman of biggleswade town. domination of the ball, going through midfield, isolating the wingers with the full backs, that kind of thing. the fans are asking us to do that is transform the football culture in the world. you're talking about somebody that thinks ahead, that is ahead of the curve, that is at the forefront of a new way of understanding the game. guardiola himself has stayed longer in his role at city than he did at barcelona or bayern munich, but he has only one year left on his contract and has admitted he's currently closer to leaving than staying after this season. it'd be interesting to see him doing what he does, which is a constant correction of players that think they know everything. doing it constantly, every day, doing a little. doing it when they've just won a game, doing it the morning after, doing it through whatsapp videos, all of that with the national side.

so perhaps there is one more way for guardiola to take on the world, but part of his success is you never quite know what he's going to try next. patrick geary, bbc news. it's all change now at one of city's title rivals liverpool, and it was only a matter of time before the club confirmed their new head coach. arne slot is the man to takeover from jurgen klopp, the club officially announced today. our correspondent andy swiss is here with me now. andy, we know this has been coming for a while. what more do we know on the deal, and what sort of boss liverpool will be getting? as you say, news we've been expecting for some time. finally, it is official. arne slot has signed a three—year contract. he'll officially start on june three—year contract. he'll officially start onjune one. this after they agreed a compensation deal worth more than £9 million, which gives you an idea ofjust highly date rate him. also worth

noting that he has been announced as head coach of liverpool rather than a manager as part of their new look structure under their new sporting director for the why have they gone for arne slot? he's enjoyed a lot of success in his three years at feyenoord. last year they won the dutch league title, they won the dutch league title, they won the dutch league title, they won the dutch league cup. quite a few similarities withjuergen klopp. likejuergen klopp he was a fairly unremarkable player who's been a far more successful manager likejuergen more successful manager like juergen klopp more successful manager likejuergen klopp he has a reputation for playing dynamic, exciting football and for being an excellent man manager who gets the best out of his players he certainly had the backing of klopp on the pitch at anfield urging the fans to get behind the new man. one thing is certain, arne slot has a pretty tough act to follow. �* shoes to fill. well slot is just one of the new names to take charge of premier league sides

in the coming weeks. brighton are on the hunt for a replacement, after roberto de zerbi announced his departure, ahead of the final day, having guided the club to the last 16 of the europa league. and west ham look set to appoint their successor to david moyes this week — moyes leaves after his second stint in charge of the hammers. i spoke to our football reporter simon stone on who'll be filling the gaps, starting at the hammers. former rio madrid and spain coach also did well for the and wolves where it last season he kept them in the premier league from a very unpromising position. ithink the premier league from a very unpromising position. i think this is been on the cards for a while. we know for a couple of weeks that david moyes will be leaving west ham after yesterday's game at manchester city. and even moyes who said he's taken somejob city. and even moyes who said he's taken some job offers are ready, he wants a break. and he has had his

break and ready to come in for the start of preseason. it break and ready to come in for the start of preseason.— start of preseason. it set to be a managerial _ start of preseason. it set to be a managerial summer, _ start of preseason. it set to be a managerial summer, busy - start of preseason. it set to be a managerial summer, busy with i start of preseason. it set to be a - managerial summer, busy with three teams currently on the lookout and others potentially in the pipeline in a few months. you others potentially in the pipeline in a few months.— others potentially in the pipeline in a few months. you don't know whether that _ in a few months. you don't know whether that triggers _ in a few months. you don't know whether that triggers a - in a few months. you don't know whether that triggers a kind - whether that triggers a kind of domino effect. because the person who is most heavily linked to with thatjob right now is karen mckenna and ipswitch. then i've seen links with rob edwards at luton, if karen mckenna was to leave for is a lot going on at the moment. that is without speculation around maurizio pochettino at chelsea and also eric ten hard at manchester united. you could end up with quite a number of vacancies in a short space of time. whether that happens, i don't know.

the premier league in the managerial fraternity, it looks as though there's going to be a lot of movement over the next few weeks. there's going to be a lot of movement over the next few weeks. the managerial talk spreads to the womens super league too — with title winners chelsea on the search for someone to takeoverfrom emma hayes. that's set to be the lyon boss sonia bompastor, but after her side play in the champions league final this weekend. jo curriejoined me earlier — and said how hayes — who leaves to take charge of the us womens national team, will feel, after clinching the title. pleased and relieved, i suspect. just two weeks ago hayes it all up and conceded the title race that looked like she may finish herfinal season at chelsea trophy list. after twists and turns in the title race going into the final day levelled on point with manchester city, a slight goal advantage. point with manchester city, a slight goaladvantage. old point with manchester city, a slight goal advantage. old trafford and beat manchester united 6—0 which no one expected to win by that much without the title was finally hers. it means that hayes can sign up the

glittering i2 it means that hayes can sign up the glittering 12 year career at chelsea not with just five consecutive titles in a row but 30 major trophies. titles in a row but 30 ma'or trophiead titles in a row but 30 ma'or trohies_ . ., ., ., , ., trophies. what an extra chelsea? ha es has trophies. what an extra chelsea? hayes has built _ trophies. what an extra chelsea? hayes has built a _ trophies. what an extra chelsea? hayes has built a dynasty - trophies. what an extra chelsea? hayes has built a dynasty there. l hayes has built a dynasty there. what next for them and who with a bid to? , ., , ., what next for them and who with a bid to? ,~ , ., ., ., . what next for them and who with a bid to? , ., , ., ., ., . ., bid to? they are yet to announce who will take her— bid to? they are yet to announce who will take her place. _ bid to? they are yet to announce who will take her place. they _ bid to? they are yet to announce who will take her place. they been - will take her place. they been heavily connected but the leon boss. she's busy preparing for champions league facing barcelona. you can expect once the champions league finals out of the way i would not be too surprised to see them announce that she will be the ones that takes the place of emma hayes. these che silly players, hayes has been there for 12 years, hayes is all they've ever known for the whoever comes in, you think they're going to have to find a new identity of play if not within themselves as well. the playoffs for leagues one and two were settled this weekend at wembley, with the championship final to come a week today. oxford united marked a long awaited return to the second tier on saturday, and lewis coombes has been in the city for

the parade and celebrations. what a weekend it is been for oxford united. 30,000 fans at wembley and thousands more have lined the streets of the city centre today to mark the achievements of their buckingham side reaching the second tier of english football for the first time in 25 years for that that achievements all the more poignant who first saw his own time club at age five when his grandma took him to a game now he's led his team to victory in a playoff final at the home of english football. the air of excitement in oxford is littered with the sounds of celebratory horns and danced singing. clubs colours everywhere, flags aplenty and they are welcoming the team on a bus in the heart of the city centre that will end appear in the town hall celebratory drinks so that there will be a welcome party for them to remember. they go onto the rest of the night to celebrate. i'm sure they've already had a number of celebratory drinks before today.

good times to be in oxford fan for the pick of the prospect of a new stadium on the horizon and a championship football. it's a day to remember in the in oxford. lewis coombes there. and what a story to tell you about at crawley town, who secured their place back in league one again, winning in their playoff final yesterday against crewe alexandra. it was their first time at wembley — with the victory capping off an emotional day for manager scott lindsay. a promotion party at the club's broadfield stadium takes place soon and james dunn is there. yesterday is the day that the players prove the world wrong. the team tip for relegation and won promotion to leak one. today is about rewarding the fans, the people who had faith, who supported them all season. as the players get off the coach earlier on they were taking photos of bands with the trophy, signing autographs, taking selfies. i caught up with the a striker who opened the score light yesterday with his 25th of the season. �* . ., ,

jamie overton is set to miss both england test series this summer against west indies and sri lanka after suffering a stress fracture of the lower back. the surrey pace bowler played his only test in 2022 but was a candidate to replace jimmy anderson when he retires from international cricket injuly. yorkshire chairman colin graves says the club will be fighting for its survival this year unless they become a private structure. graves returned to the county at the start of the year that yorkshire lost £2.7 million last year and total losses now exceed 9 million. there just 100 days to go until the start of the paralympic games in paris. and the head of the games, andrew parsons has high hopes they can go down as one of best. today, organisers have renewed their push for fans to attend in august. so far, 900,000 of the 2.8 million tickets have been sold. this video here, released by the international

paralympic committee, as part of that push. the ipc president feels the games can create a global legacy. iam super i am super excited. i think we have an incredible opportunity with spectators back to have for the first time at a long period of time the paralympic games to its full potential. great sport, great venues about the people watching around the world. in terms of preparations, we're very happy where we're with the organising committee, the authorities in france in paris. now is the moment when we're shifting our attention to the promotion of the game. in terms of the ticket sales but also around the globe so that people can turn on their tvs, social media and watch the paralympics. we have sold rights to 164 nations and we want all of them to tune in. i think there's already a strong legacy that was committed when it comes to what will happen

after the ceremony in paris president emmanuel macron has an out 1.5 billion euros in investment in making public spaces across france accessible. the city of france, paris, sorry has announced 125 million euros in making on the ground transport system of paris more accessible. there are initiatives when it comes to making the sports club throughout the country more inclusive, more excessive to persons with disabilities in general. i don't think there's a very big legacy coming from these games, what we would like to see is this legacy translate into a global legacy. we seem very good discussions and advancements in other movements when it comes to gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation we believe they have been left behind. the platform, the movement, the moment where we can definitely put them back into those discussions at the highest

level. one of paralympics gb�*s potential stars this summer is grace harvey, who's a medal hopeful named in the swimming squad today. she's one of 11 returning members to the team, including two reigning champions from tokyo 2020, in maisie summers—newton and tully kearney. the majority of the team are making their debut. harvey, who won silver in tokyo, as part on a incredible 26 medals in the pool for gb, isn't letting that success add to the pressure later this year. i think podiums are a bonus. for me, i think podiums are a bonus. for me, i want to do a lifetime best performance knowing that i could not have done anything more. if i see my personal bassinet places for that i'll be happy with that. if it comes to being on the podium, i'm excited about that as well. the experience as well as paris _ about that as well. the experience as well as paris is _ about that as well. the experience as well as paris is a _ about that as well. the experience as well as paris is a city, _ about that as well. the experience as well as paris is a city, what - about that as well. the experience as well as paris is a city, what do i as well as paris is a city, what do you know about the city itself and what it could be like there? i think the ci is what it could be like there? i think the city is going — what it could be like there? i think the city is going to be _ what it could be like there? i think the city is going to be incredible. l the city is going to be incredible. just the buzz that you get around a paralympic game is good to be amazing. i really hope the french public get behind us and really

is running 422 miles over the uk's highest mountains — ben nevis in scotland, scafell pike in cumbria, and snowdon in wales. the previous record from sea—level to sea—level is 7 days and 31 minutes — and was set in 1979. nicola rees caught up with imo before she set off. so you'll have to run 100 kilometres every day for seven days. can you do it? i can do it, chris. i can do it. yes, you can. at this stage it's all about the positive attitude. imo boddy�*s set her sights on a british fell running record. she wants to be the fastest to complete the national three pea ks challenge. yes, huge challenge. i train unbelievably hard and i feel ready, but i'm nervous. i think our biggest challenge is actually probably going to be scafell pike, because that's the point where you're four—and—a—half days in at this stage so very fatigued. coach chris is in charge of logistics. for months now, he's had imo

running 100 miles a week. sprint? go on, then go. all the hard work physically has been done, so now it's just keeping imo nice and calm, controlled. we've been out training in six inches of snow up ben nevis. now it's just about ignoring the things we can't control, remembering all the hard work that she's put in and thenjust being ready to go when it's time. yeah, three big mountains starting at sea level, hiking a big mountain, running to the next, hiking up a mountain and then running to the next. 420 miles or 16 marathons back—to—back. she'll have to reach the top of ben nevis in scotland, scafell pike in cumbria and snowdon in wales. do you recognise that gate? yeah, it's going to say i think i saw that. it's past cameron house, isn't it? the current record stands at seven days and 31 minutes. it was set in 1979 by british race walker anne sayer. don't underestimate how fast

that woman could walk. she could walk at five miles an hour and took only a 15—minute break in a 14—hour day of walking. i think she's an inspiration and it's going to be hopefully a very cool thing to break. this was the support crew back then. today it's much the same. imo's mum and dad will be on hand with food and dry clothes. i think i'll be making lots of these. you will be. well, she's certainly very headstrong, isn't she? certainly headstrong. very determined. when she's running, she'll- have a tracker on her so we'll be following the tracker - and we will stop every ten kilometres and we will be at those designated spots every time - with all the refreshments and whatever's required. | change of clothing. socks. i've trained unbelievably hard and had a lot of practice with nutrition and hydration, but it's going to be unbelievably tough, so it's definitely not going to be easy. i have absolute faith that she will beat this record, but making a mistake, it will take every ounce

of her strength, both mental and physical. imo has form. two years ago, she ran the length of the uk becoming the youngest female to complete the challenge. this time, though, she's aiming higher. three peaks world record, here i come! nicola rees, bbc news. good luck to herfor that good luck to her for that rather her than me. good luck to herfor that rather her than me. thank you very much. that's all from sportsday. hello. thanks forjoining me. it's been a warm monday and a fine end to the day for many of us with scattered, fairweather, clouds, hazy sunshine. the fairweather, clouds, hazy sunshine. clouds will coi showers the clouds will continue to and showers if they have informed where you are. satellite picture, the cloudiest guys have been across more central and northern parts of the uk so far. sati is in the cell. this is

expected to sweep in and out of the east. quite a substantial area of low pressure with old widespread area of rain. that means steady rain for many parts of the country, later on wednesday. the heaviest of the rain will fall across the northern half of the uk. further south the rate is likely to be in the form of showers. sunny spells in between and back to rain. cooler, temperatures will be in the mid or high teens and you will notice that northerly breeze. this is the rain fall accumulation for later in the week. notice the dark blue they are. that's 20 to 30 mm of rain. in parts of scotland we could see as much as 100 mm of rain and that could cause problems. everybody is at least for some rain second half of the week. let's have a week at the summary and the rest of the week. we can at a glance, you could see plenty of rain symbols they are so a chance of encountering some rain most days this week. that's it from me, thank you for watching.
