Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger does not know when striker Danny Welbeck will be back in contention, but hopes midfielder Aaron Ramsey can be fit to tackle Swansea on Monday night.

"Welbeck is doing better, but he is still not in training, he has missed now more than a week," says Wenger of his striker who has a knee complaint. "There is no major damage, but we have to see how it progresses over the next two or three days.

"From the Hull match we had Ramsey who took a big kick, he is getting slowly better. He could be back in training soon."

Wolves have released Leon Clarke, 15 months after re-signing him for a second spell at Molineux.

The Championship club have also let fellow striker Jake Cassidy go.

But a one-year option has been taken up on striker Liam McAlinden and the club are still reported to be undergoing talks with keeper Tomasz Kuszczak and defender Sam Ricketts.

BBC Sport will be running a live League One play-off text tonight so you can stay across the first legs of those nerve-jangling ties.

Preston have to recover from defeat over the weekend which cost them an automatic place as they travel to Chesterfield.

"We know an opportunity was taken away from us at the weekend because we didn't do what we needed to do," said North End boss Simon Grayson. "Football has a way of kicking you where it hurts and it is about how you respond to things."

Our League One live text will also feature the other tie - Sheffield United v Swindon - and starts at 19:00 BST.

Worcester Warriors will have a 17-year-old schoolboy on the bench for Friday night's Championship play-off semi-final second leg against London Scottish at Sixways.

Jamie Shillcock, who attends Warwick School, has been called up as Warriors will be without first-choice number Charlie Mulchrone (ankle injury) and Jonny Arr (suspended).

Thirds choice JB Bruzulier will start but, if England Under-19 Academies player Shillcock has to come on, he will become the youngest player to play in a Championship play-off match, at 17 years and 280 days old.

Shillcock was informed of his inclusion by Warwick School Director of Rugby Mark Nasey during a lesson. "I was sitting in the classroom when Mr Nasey came to see me," he said. "He told me Warriors had called me in to train with the squad ahead of Friday's match."

"The three rival Fifa presidential candidates to Sepp Blatter are to meet in Switzerland on Monday for talks.

"Dutch FA chief Michael Van Praag, the former Portuguese international Luis Figo and Fifa executive committee member Prince Ali of Jordan will hold discussions in Nyon about a joint strategy ahead of the May 29th poll.

"Despite taking place in the town where the European confederation Uefa are based, which is opposed to Blatter's candidacy, BBC Sport understands the talks will not be held at their headquarters.

"There has been increasing speculation in recent weeks that one or even two candidates could choose to drop out and offer support to the person they feel best able to challenge Sepp Blatter."

Swansea's Paul Karabardak has won gold as the GB Para table tennis team claimed five medals from the singles events at the Slovenia Open.

Karabardak won the men's class 6 event while there were silvers for Will Bayley (class 7) and Rob Davies (class 1), as well as bronzes for Jane Campbell (women's class 3) and Kim Daybell (men's class 10).

Spare a thought for American Brooks Koepka at the Players Championship.

On the 17th hole at TPC Sawgrass - famous for its island green - he just took seven shots to complete a par three and with his head in a mess, followed up with an eight on the par four 18th.

Tom Brady's agent says a report that claims the New England Patriots star knew of a scheme to under-inflate balls in an NFL game contains "tragic flaws".

Don Yee says the Wells Report, which was commissioned by the NFL, omitted key facts.

The report said Brady was "at least generally aware" of a scheme to deflate balls in a 45-7 win over Indianapolis,

Yee accused the NFL of a "sting" operation and said the report "omitted nearly all" of Brady's testimony. "Its omission of key facts and lines of inquiry suggest the investigators reached a conclusion first, and then determined so-called facts later," said Yee.

As we told you earlier today, Aston Villa are subject to a takeover bid and there have been reports emerging that Tony Adams is involved with the group looking to take charge.

BBC Radio 5 live Midlands football reporter Pat Murphy: "Paul Smith, not Tony Adams, is the brains behind this bid for Aston Villa. I understand Adams had a chat with Smith some time ago about the football issues involved in possibly bidding for Aston Villa Football club but at no stage has a role been promised for him if the bid is successful. There is no danger of Tim Sherwood being threatened.

"Smith is the one putting money together from city investors. I understand he is going for a bid for £150m."

League One side Rochdale have made striker Donal McDermott their first signing ahead of next season, on a one-year deal following a trial.

The 25-year-old started his career at Manchester City and has had spells at Bournemouth, Huddersfield, Scunthorpe and Irish side Dundalk.

He was most recently been playing non-league football with Salford City and Ramsbottom United.

"There's a special, special talent there," said Dale boss Keith Hill. "He wants to put into practice the losses of the last two or three years where he's not really made the most of his ability."

Wycombe defender Alfie Mawson says all the pressure is on Plymouth Argyle going into Saturday's League Two play-off semi-final first leg at Home Park.

Wanderers missed out on automatic promotion on the final day to Bury, finishing fourth as Argyle got seventh.

"The pressure isn't on us, it's on our opponents. It's ridiculous to think that 84 points would have got us up [automatically] in any of the last 19 or 20 seasons," he told BBC Three Counties Radio. "But we go again and I think the lads are very optimistic, we'll attack it with nothing held back."

It all got a bit too much for Darren Clarke at the Mayweather-Pacquiao fight on Sunday morning and the Players Championship has gone the same way.

The Welsh Rugby Union has withdrawn its offer of a national dual contract to Wales' Taulupe Faletau after he missed a deadline.

The number eight has a year left on his current Newport Gwent Dragons deal.

The British and Irish Lion, 24, said changing his agent had "delayed" signing a dual contract, which would be co-funded by the WRU and the region.

Faletau has been linked with a move to Premiership side Bath, having not been among Welsh players to sign dual contracts between the WRU and regions recently.
