The former Arsenal star, 56, appeared on the BBC yesterday wearing a sand-coloured jacket and matching trousers during the televised Fa Cup final between Arsenal and Chelsea. The billionaire, 73, tweeted on his Twitter handle taking aim at Wright's dress sense and it backfired spectacularly. Lord Sugar wrote: "That is one hell of a suit @IanWright0 has on. A bit too dark don’t you think. He could be in camouflage on a beach." Many of his followers accused him of racism over the tweet, with one writing: "I don’t get the part: A bit too dark don’t u think ??? "What does that suppose to mean? Dark for what!?

Spain's former monarch King Juan Carlos has left the country amid accusations he had a £58.5 million stashed in an offshore account.  The Spain authorities opened an investigation involving Juan Carlos in a high speed rail in Saudi Arabia.

The Spanish royal family website published a letter from Juan Carlos to his son King Felipe VI on Monday saying, "I am informing you of my considered decision to move during this period, out of Spain."    The report against the former King of Spain alleged that he transferred a large sum of money to a friend in what investigators consider as an attempt to hide the money from authorities.
