Europe's top soccer clubs face $2.4bln revenue hit
Europe's elite soccer clubs are expected to miss out on over 2 billion euros - that’s $2.43 billion in revenue by the end of the current 2020/21 season, through a combination of reasons all stemming from the ongoing global health crisis. Figures in Deloitte's Football Money League report published on Tuesday (January 26) also include missed amounts from the end of the last campaign. It shows the top 20 highest-earning clubs in Europe earned 8.2 billion euros of combined revenue, which was down 12% on the previous season. Izzy Wray from Deloitte explained the reduction. “The composition of that 12% reduction is a combination of reduction in match day revenue, of course, from having no fans in the stadiums for the postponed seasons, broadcaster rebates as a result of the seasons either being cancelled or postponed.” With the majority of games being played without fans in stadiums since June, matchday revenue for top European clubs is likely to remain close to zero for some time to come. “We’ll definitely see more digital fan engagement, and, so, I think that's something that clubs have been very focused on this season, and a lot of them have seen some relative success in that. So, I think we'll see that sort of continuing and clubs looking for more innovative ways to engage with fans digitally, even when fans were able to go back in stadiums." Barcelona missed out on the Spanish title last season, but the Catalan club retained the top spot in terms of annual revenue totalling $790.5 million. However, the money league also showed Barca suffered the second largest revenue fall among the clubs on the list, down from a record breaking $959 million.

CAS to hear Yastremska appeal before Australian Open
Ukraine's Yastremska was suspended earlier this month after the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) found a banned substance in an out-of-competition urine sample she submitted. The International Tennis Federation (ITF) had denied Yastremska's application to have the suspension lifted even as the world No 29 was preparing to compete in the year's first Grand Slam, which begins on Feb. 8 in Melbourne. Yastremska, who travelled to Melbourne and is currently in quarantine, had denied using performance-enhancing drugs and said the positive test was the result of a "contamination event".

Ice pancakes, anyone?
Video shared by the Ness District Salmon Fishery Board (NDSFB) shows the phenomenon called "ice pancakes" as they floated on the upper Ness catchment which is near Inverness, NDFSB said. The phenomenon is relatively rare and occurs in very cold lakes and oceans, most frequently in the Baltic Sea and Antarctica, according to the Met Office official website. Ice pancakes can form in two different ways, first by waves causing pieces of ice to knock against each other, which rounds their edges. They are also believed to form when a river's foam starts to freeze as they are sucked into a swirling water current and form into a circular shape, Met Office said.

French lawmakers on Tuesday debated an animal welfare bill that would ban using wild animals in traveling circuses and keeping dolphins and whales in captivity in marine parks, amid other restrictions. Circus workers held a protest against the bill outside the National Assembly, saying the measure would cause circuses and jobs to vanish, if it becomes law. “That’s death for circuses,” Royal Circus director William Kerwich told The Associated Press.
