MANCHESTER City has apologised after the club reportedly gave children as young as six certificates featuring a photo of rapist footballer Ched Evans.
Youngsters attending club coaching sessions were sent home with certificates that featured stars who came through the club's Academy programme, including Evans, who was at City for eight years before moving to Sheffield United.
Evans is at the centre of controversy over whether and how he will return to football following his release from prison last month.
