    A Leicestershire man is making a name for himself abroad - as a top-flight football manager.

    Ian Burchnall, from Enderby, is currently managing Swedish top-flight side Ostersunds and has helped them rise to fourth in the table.

    He said the language barrier was, "not too much of a problem".

    "I speak Norwegian so I can understand a bit of Swedish as well," he said. "We have players from all over the world so English is the universal language we tend to use anyway.

    "In England it’s a very hire-and-fire culture where people don’t get a lot of time, so therefore they tend not to give a lot of time to people they’re not 100% sure on."

    Have you seen missing Brian Diaper? The 66-year-old left his Loughborough home just after midday yesterday.

    CCTV footage found by the police shows he was in a shop on Baxter Gate in the town at about 13:00 but he hasn't been seen since.

    He was reported missing just before 17:00 when he failed to show up for an appointment.

    Police said Brian requires daily medication which he doesn’t appear to have taken with him. He has also left his mobile phone.

    It's thought to be "totally out of character" for Brian to go missing.

    Derbyshire Constabulary said it had notified the IOPC as a matter of course because, at the time of the crash, it was responding to an unrelated emergency call nearby.

    However, the office has decided an investigation is not required.

    Richard Keenan, 23, is due to appear at Derby Crown Court on 19 September, charged with causing death by dangerous driving and four other offences.
