An artist has pleaded guilty to a criminal mischief charge for smashing a vase that was part of a US museum exhibit by noted Chinese dissident artist Ai Weiwei.

Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers believes Divock Origi "can light up world football" after the Belgium striker completed his £10 million (€12.6m) move to Anfield yesterday.

Chinese dissident artist Ai Weiwei, who helped make his name smashing a valuable vase in the name of art, said that he was miffed about another artist destroying one of his vases in Florida.

A Florida artist is facing a criminal charge after police say he smashed a $1m vase at Miami’s new art museum, in what appears to be a form of protest.

Atletico Madrid director of football Jose Luis Caminero is confident striker Diego Costa is not interested in a move to the Premier League.
