Kim Jong-un's friend from school says North Korean leader doesn't have a son

Mr Micaelo has long claimed that he attended school with Mr Kim in Switzerland in 1998 and made several revelations in previous interviews, including that the North Korean leader enrolled under the name Pak Un at the school.

Mr Micaelo, the son of a Portuguese immigrant couple, said he sat next to Mr Kim on the first day in class without knowing he was the son of North Korean leader Kim Jong-il. In his latest interview with Radio Free Asia on the topic, Mr Micaelo claimed Mr Kim never mentioned his son in his intimate conversations with him about their families.

United self-destruct again as Burnley win late penalty

Erik ten Hag objects when his Manchester United are described as a disgrace or an embarrassment, so there may be a need for a more measured turn of phrase.
