Former Liverpool and England player turned pundit Jamie Carragher faces being declared bankrupt over an unpaid tax bill.

Filings seen by the BBC show that a case was filed against James Lee Duncan Carragher on Wednesday.

Carragher and his representatives have been approached for comment.

The ‘bankruptcy petition’ filed by lawyers representing HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) was first reported by City AM.

A spokesperson for HMRC told BBC Sport that it did not comment on individual cases, but a spokesperson added: “We take a supportive approach to dealing with customers who have tax debts and do everything we can to help those who engage with us to get out of debt, such as offering instalment plans.

“We only petition for bankruptcy as a last resort.”

Carragher, who played for Liverpool between 1996 and 2013, regularly appears on Sky Sports’ Premier League coverage, the Stick To Football show and CBS Sports’ Champions League programming.

Munster have confirmed that Ireland fly-half Jack Crowley is not expected to return from injury until the new year.

Crowley has been sidelined since April after being diagnosed with a blood vessel issue in his leg.

Having sat out Ireland’s Nations Championship games against Australia, Japan and New Zealand last month, the 26-year-old will miss the competition’s second block of games against Argentina, Fiji and South Africa in November.

“Jack Crowley is a very important player for Munster and Ireland with a big future in the game and ensuring he gets back to 100% is the priority,” said Munster head coach Clayton McMillan.

Crowley made his Ireland debut in 2022 and has earned 35 caps, playing every minute of the 2024 title-winning Six Nations campaign.

While Sam Prendergast started the first two games of this year’s Six Nations, Crowley reclaimed the 10 jersey and steered Ireland to wins over England, Wales and Scotland to deliver the Triple Crown.

Rangers have bolstered their wide options with the arrival of Kim Min-Su from Girona for an undisclosed fee.

The South Korean, 20, has signed a four-year contract, with the option of a further year, becoming Rangers’ 12th signing of the summer.

The Ibrox outfit have been chasing new wingers, with Kim joining Djeidi Gassama, Findlay Curtis and Ross McCausland, as well as another summer recruit in Daisuke Yokota.

Rangers had been poised to buy PSV Eindhoven’s Couhaib Driouech earlier this month, but the 24-year-old had been carry a minor injury.

Brighton then rejected a £7.5m offer from Ibrox for Amario Cozier-Duberry, 21.

“We are delighted to welcome Min-su to Rangers,” boss Derek McInnes said.

“Strengthening our options in the forward areas has been a real target and focus for us throughout this window and we believe he will add another exciting dimension to the squad.

“Min-su is a talented young player with excellent technical ability, energy and a real desire to develop and we are looking forward to working with him.”

Kim was loaned to second-tier Andorra last term and leaves Girona after their relegation from La Liga.

He scored 19 goals in 84 appearances for Girona B and played eight times for their senior team. At Andorra, he netted six times in 40 games and provided four assists.
