i'm lizzie greenwood—hughes, here with your latest sports news. liverpool managerjurgen klopp has given his appraisal of his likely successor — feyenoord's arne slot — saying "he likes the way his team plays football." slot, who's currently in charge of the dutch side feyenoord, is expected to replace klopp when he leaves at the end of the season. i like the way this team play football, i can't say definitely all the things i hear about him as a guy, good guy, some people i know know him, i don't know him yet but some people tell me he is a really good guy and i like that a lot. so good coach, good guy, looking forward to it if he is the solution, i am more than happy, it is not up

to me. it sounds all really good. paris saint—germain can win a record—extending 12th french league title this weekend if they beat le havre at home. it's also the first step in a potential treble as they're still in the champions league and have a french cup final next month. translation: we are coming to the end of the season _ translation: we are coming to the end of the season in _ translation: we are coming to the end of the season in positive - end of the season in positive circumstances. i had never thought of a scenario as positive as this because i don't think too much about the future. whatever comes welcome and i will accept it. i think we are in a splendid moment in every sense of the word. we have almost all the players available. i supporters are very happy and the club has a lot of ambition to achieve something different. this british sugar season is attractive, it motivates us a lot —— this end to the season. one of the world's biggest women's football stars — marta — says she's retiring from the international game

at the end of the year. the striker is brazil's all—time record goal—scorer and could make her sixth appearance at an olympic games if she's selected for her country this summer in paris. marta will still play club football for orlando pride where she's also the all—time leading goal scorer. rugby union's women's 6 nations will be decided tomorrow in a winner takes all game between england and france in bordeaux. england haven't lost in the tournament for 28 games — and that was by france back in 2018. but they'll face a french side unbeaten this year with the ability to stop a sixth successive title for the red roses. we have got to stay on it from the first minute to the 80th minute and if we come off it like we did last time we played them they can turn it on at any time and have that french flair. i think their philosophy is dare to play, but actually we are not going to let them play this week. we starve them of the ball and they can't play. we are ruthless about the way we go about our business and the scoreline will look after itself. the young quarter—back caleb williams was the first

pick at the nfl draft. 250,000 fans packed—out detroit for the draft — where american football teams pick the best prospects for the new season. the 22—year—old williams is being hailed as the most talented player to come out of college for years and he was the first pick for the chicago bears — one of a record six quarterbacks chosen in the first 12 with no defensive players in the top 10 for the first time in nfl draft history. the draft continues for another two nights. nico hulkenberg is the first driver to sign with the new audi formula one team. the german will race for sauber next season before they transform into the factory audi team in 2026. the teams are also targeting ferrari's carlos sainz. hulkenberg's decision leaves a vacancy with his current team haas. snooker�*s world championship is into the second round and it's proving hard going for england's robert milkins. milkins is a frame away from losing to david gilbert and his frustration showed earlier as he took it out on his cue. gilbert leads 12—4 —

it's the best of 25 frames with a place in the quarter—finalsd at stake. and that's all the sport for now. skin cancer patients in the uk have begun taking part in a trial aimed at developing the first personalised vaccine for melanoma — the deadliest form of the disease. the experimental treatment uses the same technology as some covid—i9 jabs. results from an earlier stage of the trial suggest using it in combination with another drug reduces the risk of recurrence or death by 49% after three years. here's our health correspondent, jim reed. could a jab like this change the way cancer is treated? last month, steve young became the first person in the uk to be given this personalised vaccine, not to prevent the disease, but to try to stop a skin cancer returning. at least by being on a trial, i'm actively doing something that,

you know, i'm having a fight, basically, i'm having a fight with whatever it was that gave me a melanoma. last summer, steve had this tumour removed from his scalp. those same cancer cells were flown to the united states and used to make the new experimental treatment. by priming, or preparing, his immune system, the hope is that steve's own body can better find and attack any cancer cells left over after his surgery. the trials being run at this hospital in london and others are based on the same technology used in some covid jab called mrna, combined with a second treatment. early research suggests it significantly reduced the risk of this specific skin cancer called melanoma returning three years after surgery. researchers hope the same approach could work more widely. the real potential here, of course, is expanding this into other cancers because it's not a technology that

just works in one cancer. if it works in melanoma, it could work across a number of different cancers, lung cancer, bowel cancer, kidney cancer etc. so there's a potential here for a really transformative change in how we treat patients with cancer. for patients like steve, a musician from hertfordshire, the hope is this personalised approach will one day sit alongside proven treatments like radiotherapy and chemotherapy. weeks on from his treatment, he is thinking about his future. ifeel like i have this new lease of life and i'm actually really loving life at the moment, and ijust really hope that what's happening with the trial and the results they get are going to be good news and it's going to go on to do amazing things. the uk arm of this global trial is taking place at this hospital and seven other sites across the country. but this is still very early stage research,

with full results not expected before the end of the decade. manchester's new co—op live arena which will be the uk's largest music venue has postponed its opening again, this time to may, because it is still not ready. this comes after the boss of the new arena resigned after a series of problems and delays. gary roden quit his role after comedian peter kay's opening shows were cancelled this week — because the £365 million venue was not ready to open in time. our arts and entertainment reporter, ian youngs, has the latest. it isa it is a big embarrassment for the venue, which was meant to have opened earlier this week, originally with peter kay playing two nights. those were then postponed until next week, but now there is a been postponed again until may. so this

news. thank you for watching. hello. it was a really cold start to the day. a widespread frost. lowest temperatures down to —6 in the coldest spots in both northern england and scotland. but many of us have seen sunny skies like these already. it is a day, though, where clouds will bubble up to bring showers. and we've seen lots of showers in northern ireland. there have been quite a few for the north and east of scotland, and down the eastern side of england. meanwhile, this thicker cloud affecting southern wales and southern—most areas of england. well, that's a weather front bringing more general outbreaks of rain. now, the rain from that's going to be light and patchy into southern wales. just a few spots really. some heavier rain getting into south—west england. those showers become a bit more widespread across northern england, probably popping across the pennines into the north west of england. we'll continue to see quite widespread showers for northern ireland, northern and eastern scotland down the eastern side of england. but it will be northern and central wales, the midlands, east anglia that stay largely dry today. overnight, a band of rain moves up from the south, that will keep temperatures up

around six or seven degrees. but away from that, with the clear skies, again, we're looking at a cold night with a widespread and sharp frost. the weekend will be dominated by this area of low pressure moving up from the south. now, we are looking at some rain developing on saturday across southern counties of england, wales, midlands and east anglia. and as well as the rain, there will be a chilly northeasterly wind developing through the day. maybe as the rain clears, we could see some heavy showers following to southern areas of england. elsewhere for scotland, northern ireland, the far north of england, it's another day of sunny spells and passing showers. after that cold start, wherever you are, temperatures not doing great for the time of year. for sunday, low pressure still with us. outbreaks of rain extensively across england, reaching eastern scotland through the day. it's western areas that will have the best of the day's weather. sunshine, and again, a few sharp showers. it is another cold day, but the last of the cold days we'll see for a while because the weather is set to turn a bit milder. we'll start to see that change on monday as the winds come up

from more of a southerly direction. there will be some rain across western areas. the driest, brightest weather will be across eastern areas of the uk. but those temperatures will be climbing much closer to average for this time of the year. and that warming trend is set to continue deeper into next week. could see temperatures reach the high teens, the low 20s in the warmest spots. however, there will be some rain to come as well.
