Aaron Ramsey is back in the UK and has left Mexico with immediate effect.

The Wales international, who has been devastated by the loss of his family dog, Halo, has had a rough few weeks before receiving the shocking news. After joining the Mexican team Pumas, the pet was dropped off at a ranch close to Ramsey's residence, but it has been gone for more than three weeks.

After a search for the missing 10-year-old dog failed despite a sizable reward being given, the 34-year-old and his wife, Colleen, publicly said they had been deceived, leaving them distraught by the strange turn of events.

Following Ramsey's injury in late September, which forced him to miss Wales' World Cup qualifying match against Belgium, a challenging personal situation developed.

Since then, he has missed Pumas' training sessions, which has led to speculation that he may be about to leave Mexico after making an unexpected move in the summer.

According to a number of reports, Ramsey is once again a free agent after amicably terminating his contract.

After serving as Cardiff City's temporary manager for a short time while still a player, he departed Wales for Mexico. However, the disastrous move has come to an end less than six months later, and Ramsey's plans are still up in the air.

When the midfielder's beloved beagle was last spotted in San Miguel de Allende, in the Guanajuato region of Mexico, he offered $20,000 (£15,000) to anyone who could help locate it.

After suffering a hamstring injury in a 4-1 loss to America at the end of September, the 34-year-old has not featured for his new team since.

In addition to missing the most recent Wales international camp due to that injury, he has also avoided his club because of the hunt for his dog.

Ramsey has owned Halo for more than ten years, and in recent weeks, there has been a lot of speculation about what happened to the dog. Recently, Ramsey's wife, Colleen, suggested that Halo might have been abducted after being left at a nearby shelter.

"We have stayed quiet, trying to grasp how you can leave your puppy on a ranch and never see her again," Ramsey said on social media last week.

"Without a reason? There were a lot of lies, no sightings, no body, no cameras were filming, and a tracked person was unable to locate her.

When asked about Ramsey's condition following Sunday's draw with Leon, manager Efraín Juárez responded, "We are keeping an eye on it." I made that statement on Wednesday; we will see what transpires over the next few days.

"He is coping with his dog-related predicament, which we are all aware of. Before he went during the FIFA break, there was also a problem. We will therefore need to wait and observe what transpires over the next days.

According to reports, Raymond Muratalla and Andy Cruz have a confirmed date and venue for their title fight.

The former two-time Olympic gold medallist Cruz will defend against IBF lightweight champion Muratalla on January 24 at the Fontainebleau in Las Vegas.

The news was initially reported by BoxingScene.com.

Top Rank, Muratalla's handler, placed the sole other bid, but Eddie Hearn and Matchroom Boxing, Cruz's promoter, outbid them for the right to hold the fight. Top Rank bid $550,000, Matchroom bid $888,888.

Muratalla will get 65% of the winning price, or $577,777.20. Cruz is going to receive $311,110.80.

The 28-year-old Muratalla (23-0, 17 KOs) will be defending his 135-pound title for the first time. On May 10, he defeated Zaur Abdullaev to win the interim edition of that title. Since Vasiliy Lomachenko abruptly retired, he has been promoted to full champion.

Cruz (6-0, 3 KOs) became the mandatory challenger for that title after thrashing Hironori Mishiro in Madison Square Garden in New York on June 14 and stopping him in the fifth round.

“I’M GOOD SOLO” KEVIN DURANT EXPLAINS WHY HE’LL NEVER MARRY

NBA star Kevin Durant admits he doesn't expect to ever get married, citing low odds and doubting he could be with one person forever. The Houston Rockets forward called off his own engagement back in 2014.

After questioning if he could spend the rest of his life with one spouse, NBA veteran Kevin Durant says he does not anticipate ever getting married.

When Durant, 37, proposed to his then-girlfriend in 2013, he called it quits a year later because he "did not know how to love her the right way." Durant was previously engaged to former WNBA player Monica Wright.

Despite being romantically involved with other high-profile women before his breakup with Wright, such as actress Apryl Jones and women's basketball player Liz Cambage, the Houston Rockets forward is still unmarried more than ten years later.

Additionally, Durant stated in an interview with influencer Bobbi Althoff that he "does not know" if he could stay married to just one person indefinitely.

"I believe divorce is more realistic because the divorce rate is greater," he remarked.

"That is not good odds to me," Durant said in response to Althoff's assertion that the likelihood of a divorce is always 50/50. But you are betting on that being 50/50, and that is betting on forever? I am not sure if I want to risk it.

After calling off an engagement, Kevin Durant acknowledges that he does not anticipate getting married in eleven years.

According to the NBA veteran, he does not believe he could spend the rest of his life with just one spouse.

He went on to say, "It is like the word marriage... like what the bond is." For example, do I want to hang out with the same person every day and be with this person every day?

"I had never actually imagined my wedding day." I think, "Oh, this is cool, oh, it is dope," whenever I attend a wedding. It is not as if I have to imagine it. Still, it is a cool occasion.

Durant emphasised that he is not currently looking for a committed relationship, even if he acknowledged that he once believed he was close to marriage.

That being said, he is not entirely ruling out future wedding bells.

According to the two-time NBA champion, "I am sure that it may happen." "All I am saying is that I am not anticipating it, but I am not closing the door on anything."

Durant responded, "Just somebody I can hang out with daily, somebody I can talk to that is cool, you know the basics, somebody I can genuinely be friends with," when asked what qualities he would look for in a partner. and not consider it to be a girlfriend-boyfriend situation.

Instead of us simply being friends by nature, there is a cloud associated with that label and expectation. I prefer to have no expectations because I might not always want to meet or speak with you.
