Manchester City Women forward Khadija ‘Bunny’ Shaw has explained the backstory of her ‘Davido celebration’ with Chloe Kelly in the Manchester Derby last month.

Recall that Shaw joined Kelly in doing Nigerian singer Davido’s ‘Unavailable’ dance after wrapping up the scoring for City in their 3-1 victory over United at Old Trafford in November.

In a recent interview with Sky Sports, the Jamaican striker explained how her viral ‘Davido celebration’ came to be.

She said: “I went to the PFA Awards and Davido was there. Obviously, he performed. I’m touching Alex like, ‘I’m feeling this dance.’ She was like, ‘You got it.’ So throughout the time, she was like, ‘You got it.’ I was trying [the dance] but it wasn’t working, but she was like, ‘Okay, you need more practise.’ And so I would go in the bathroom and practise to see if I got it because I didn’t want to come out and be embarrassed.

“Whenever there’s a new song or a new dance, Chloe is like the first person [in the team] to learn it. And I was like, ‘Chloe, how do I look? Check me out.’ And she was like, ‘Okay, you got it.’ She was like, ‘You know what? It would be cool if either one of us scored; we could do it at the game [Manchester Derby].’ And then I scored but I completely forgot because I was just so in the moment. And then I saw Chloe touch me and she just started doing it [‘Unavailable’ dance] and I joined her. I think it went viral and Davido reposted it.”

UCL, EPL: Petr Cech Advises Chelsea On How To Win Trophies

Chelsea legend, Petr Cech, has advised his old club on how to win the UEFA Champions League or the English Premier League.

Chelsea are already out of the Premier League title race this season, and they are at risk of missing out on UEFA Champions League qualification for next season because they are currently not in the ninth position on the Premier League table.

Speaking to The Athletic about Chelsea, Cech said that the Blues need to change their philosophy of signing only young players if they want to win the Premier League or Champions League.

According to the former goalkeeper, the Premier League west London club needs to add experienced players to mentor the young players in the squad.

“You have to look at what you want to achieve. You can have young, talented players, and you can win, but it’s very rare that you manage to do that,” he said.

“If you want to win every season and compete every season, that does not go together.

“You have to change your philosophy. Certain things don’t go together because, in order to win a Champions League or a Premier League… these are really tough competitions, and you have to be consistent.

“You need to have a strong core of the team. And then you can bring young, talented players who will grow faster and then will be held by the experienced players to help navigate them through difficult times when they come.”

Currently, Chelsea have just one player, Tosin Adarabioyo, who is over 28 this season, and the defender has not been playing regularly.

The Executive Chairman of the Edo State Sports Commission, Hon. Amadin Desmond Enabulele, has commended Governor Monday Okpebholo for what he described as a bold and transformative approach to sports development.

Speaking on efforts to reposition sports in the state, Enabulele noted that with Okpebholo’s visionary leadership, the sector has witnessed renewed growth.

In a statement issued by his Media Officer, Edoko Wilson Edoko, the Edo Sports Commission boss attributed the progress to the governor’s strategic policies and sustained commitment to youth development, which he said have laid the foundation for a more structured and results-driven system.

“His Excellency has demonstrated clear vision and genuine commitment to sports development. The level of support we are receiving has significantly repositioned Edo as a competitive force in national sporting events,” he said.

He explained that targeted investments in grassroots development are already producing results, with a growing number of young talents being identified and nurtured across multiple disciplines.

“We are deliberately building from the grassroots. A large percentage of our athletes today are homegrown, which speaks to the sustainability of our development model,” Enabulele added.

The Commission, he noted, is also shifting away from an over-reliance on football to a broader multi-sport focus.

Edo State, he said, is now recording improved performances in athletics, combat sports, and other emerging areas.

“Our goal is to strengthen all sports. The results are beginning to show across different disciplines, and this is only the start,” he said.

Enabulele further pointed to ongoing improvements in sports infrastructure and athlete welfare as critical factors in sustaining performance and encouraging wider participation among young people.

“We are building a system that will endure. With the continued support of the governor, Edo is on course to becoming a dominant force in sports at both national and international levels,” he stated.

He expressed confidence that the current momentum would translate into greater achievements for Edo athletes, reaffirming the Commission’s commitment to excellence, discipline, and long-term development.
