whether france pushing in from the south and the west as low pressure develops. things gradually turning more unsettled through the weekend. staying warm but an increasing chance of showers. saturday could see heavy showers across scotland, sunday could be the warmest day of the week in the south but an increasing chance of showers or thunder storms. thanks, stav. and that's bbc news at one. hello and welcome to sportsday — i'm hugh ferris. our top stories this lunchtime. the man they bought to help them win the champions league will depart without it. kylian mbappe's psg fail once again to claim their holy grail. one superstar won't be at wembley injune. but there's a guaranteed place for eitherjude bellingham or harry kane.
1:34 pm
real and bayern meet again. but this time at the new bernabeu, its biggest game since madrid spent more than £1 billion on their stadium. hello again. not many would have had borussia dortmund as champions league finalists this season. but their coach says they've loved flying under everyone's radar. just fifth in germany's bundesliga, dortmund will return to where they played their last final in the competition — wembley — injune. dortmund were already ahead from the first leg against paris st—germain. and defender mats hummels scored in the second half in france to make it 2—0 overall. it means kylian mbappe will depart this summer, as he's expected to do, without helping his team win the champions league. while dortmund are heading to their second final in 11 years,
1:35 pm
having won the trophy once before in 1997. so kylian mbappe will not get his dream farewell from a club he's been at for seven years now. he's expected to leave at the end of his contract in the summer, with real madrid his likely destination. without the trophy that has been central to the project of psg's qatari owners, one that now seems even further away. it was definitely his last opportunity to bring champions league glory to paris and his city, it was probably his last game in the champions league with psg. so it is a chance he has missed. let's not be negative and say it was the last chance for psg to get this trophy finally, but it was a big opportunity with this team and it's not been the best team once again over the year that psg has built this season but they had a key
1:36 pm
player who was leaving, and he will be the first one to be disappointed. he had the obsessional breaks —— bringing the trophy back home, to bringing the trophy back home, to bring it to paris and he said it was so important for him to prove a point and prove something and he missed a big opportunity and his story with paris will always be remembered as a nice story but this defeat last night will remain in the books, definitely. ithink defeat last night will remain in the books, definitely. i think they are convinced that paris one day will get this champions league trophy. i think the owners will not give up. they spent too much money since they took over in 2011 since when to give up took over in 2011 since when to give up now and i'm convinced they will make it. they need to make some change. they have a new manager on board, they've tried so many managers and players. they have to rethink this project. i am convinced
1:37 pm
they won't give up. they have this obsession. they build their new stadium, they have the new training session —— centre. they've invested too much money to give up now. manchester city, it took a long time and a lot of money to get there, and that's a good example, and they've done it before us but it took many years and a lot of investment, so, no, i don't think paris is ready to give up. paris will come back. we will rise again. even if it is a huge blow, it's a massive disappointment, but the future awaits without mbappe were other players. sojoining borussia dortmund at wembley will either be the team they played and lost to there in 2013, bayern munich, or real madrid. the other semifinal is 2—2 going into the second leg in spain tonight, with eitherjude bellingham or harry kane making the final. a subplot of the first leg last week
1:38 pm
was bellingham attempting to put his england team—mate off before kane scored his penalty for bayern. so what did bellingham's manager make of it all? i thinkjude is a fantastic guy. i think he respects everyone, and he has a really good relationship with harry kane. i think for the national team, there are no problems. well, kane himself insists he didn't notice bellingham trying anything, with his focus on converting the penalty. and his coach thomas tuchel says that's exactly why they bought him from tottenham last summer. i knew we get a big personality into our dressing room on top of everything that you can analyse, goal—scoring and movements and assisting and dealing with the pressure, you know it, actually he brought everything to the table that we that we could possibly hope for. tonight's semifinal second leg is probably biggest game to take place at the bernabeu since real madrid's famous stadium completed its £1.5

billion renovation. and while it looks markedly different from the outside, it's the club's plans for what happens inside that are key to its revamp. the bernabeu stadium was built in 1947. the way it looked in the past was a bit like a roman amphitheatre or something like that, classic look to it and this is completely different. this is futuristic and looks like a spaceship in the middle of the city and it feels like you are in star wars or something. is and it feels like you are in star wars or something.— and it feels like you are in star wars or something. is every angle the same? — wars or something. is every angle the same? it _ wars or something. is every angle the same? it isn't. _ wars or something. is every angle the same? it isn't. how— wars or something. is every angle the same? it isn't. how are - wars or something. is every angle the same? it isn't. how are the i the same? it isn't. how are the curves? — the same? it isn't. how are the curves? how do they even make it? the idea _ curves? how do they even make it? the idea of— curves? how do they even make it? the idea of making it look modern and almost — the idea of making it look modern and almost a _ the idea of making it look modern and almost a vanguard _ the idea of making it look modern and almost a vanguard of- the idea of making it look modern and almost a vanguard of the - and almost a vanguard of the stadium _ and almost a vanguard of the stadium. ~ ., ., ., , , stadium. we are going to put this big stadium _ stadium. we are going to put this big stadium in — stadium. we are going to put this big stadium in the _ stadium. we are going to put this big stadium in the middle - stadium. we are going to put this big stadium in the middle of- stadium. we are going to put this big stadium in the middle of the i big stadium in the middle of the city and generate a lot of money through that. city and generate a lot of money through that-— through that. real madrid is the team and when _ through that. real madrid is the team and when the _ through that. real madrid is the team and when the stadium - through that. real madrid is the team and when the stadium is l through that. real madrid is the i team and when the stadium is built there _ team and when the stadium is built there was— team and when the stadium is built there was nothing there and the city .rew there was nothing there and the city grew around it. it there was nothing there and the city grew around it— grew around it. it was in the suburbs 40 _ grew around it. it was in the suburbs 40 years _ grew around it. it was in the suburbs 40 years ago - grew around it. it was in the suburbs 40 years ago and i grew around it. it was in the l suburbs 40 years ago and it's grew around it. it was in the - suburbs 40 years ago and it's as it grow— suburbs 40 years ago and it's as it grow becomes _ suburbs 40 years ago and it's as it grow becomes the _ suburbs 40 years ago and it's as it grow becomes the heart _ suburbs 40 years ago and it's as it grow becomes the heart of - suburbs 40 years ago and it's as it grow becomes the heart of the - suburbs 40 years ago and it's as it. grow becomes the heart of the city. what _ grow becomes the heart of the city. what we _ grow becomes the heart of the city.

1:42 pm
he's now due to play in switzerland in ten days' time as part of his run—up to the french open. murray is hoping he'll be fit enough to try for a third olympic gold medal in paris this summer. preparations in the french capital are almost complete and now the olympic flame has arrived in the country. after an 11—day journey from greece, it reached marseille on a tallship surrounded by a flotilla of more than a thousand small boats. its epic voyage will continue across france but will also include an oceans relay that'll take in six of france's overseas territories before the games�* opening ceremony on the 26thjuly. the napkin that kick—started lionel messi's career goes up for auction today. trust me that is a sentence that makes sense. upon the napkin was written the first contract between a 13 —year—old messi and barcelona. it goes under the hammer at bonhams new york in an online auction running until 17th may. estimates suggest around half a million dollars could be enough to get it.
1:43 pm
i trust it is clean enough for you to enjoy and put a frame around it. you can get all the latest sports news at from the bbc sport app, orfrom our website — that's bbc.co.uk/sport. from me and the rest of the team at the bbc sport centre, goodbye. you are watching bbc news. in the past few hours, conservative mp for dover, natalie elphicke, has announced she's defected to labour. in a statement, she hit out at what she described as the "broken promises of rishi sunak�*s tired and chaotic government". natalie elphicke crossed the floor in the commons just moments before prime minister's questions. she said: "i have carefully considered this decision. the change has been dramatic and cannot be ignored. for me, key deciding factors have been housing and the safety and security of our borders." her resignation comes less than two weeks after mp dan poulter defected to labour. in the last couple of hours
1:44 pm
natalie elphicke spoke to reporters about why she crossed the floor to labour. well, in 2019 the conservatives stood on a manifesto that was very much centre ground, but under rishi sunak they've abandoned the centre ground and broken many election promises. meanwhile, under keir starmer, labour have changed, and i think that change is going to bring a much better future for our country, and that's why i was so keen to join the labour party and play my part in bringing that important future forward. 0k. in the past, you've criticised labour's immigration policy. you said that labour's policy was open borders, pro—immigration, it doesn't want to stop the boats, labour cannot be trusted on immigration. have you changed your mind on that, and just again, have labour offered you a peerage? so, under rishi sunak, he is the man who said he would stop the boats, and yet when we look at this year alone, its record numbers of small boats arrivals, so he's not stopping the boats and he is letting the country down. meanwhile, under labour, they are clear that it is important to have defence and they want
1:45 pm
to make sure that they have good national security, so i think we should have confidence that labour are the party who will tackle this issue of the small boats crossings. it'sjust funny, then have labour offered you a peerage? no, what i said i will do, and what i've been asked to do, is contributing the area of housing, which has been a long—standing area of experience for me. i mean, it's absolutely vital that we build the homes the country needs, because under rishi sunak we've seen house—building simply collapse in this last year, and going forward it looks like it will be another missed manifesto promise from the conservatives — not 300,000 homes, but probably half of that number. so, i'm really pleased to be able to join the labour party. labour has changed, and it will be building the homes our country needs. let's speak to henry zeffman, who's in the commons lobby now. really quite a moment. if you had asked me to make a list of the 100
