The driver in a car crash that injured Anthony Joshua and killed two members of his team has been charged, police in Nigeria have said.

Adeniyi Mobolaji Kayode, 46, was charged at the Sagamu Magistrate Court on Friday. Police sources told the BBC the charges included causing death by dangerous driving.

Joshua's personal trainer, Latif Ayodele, and strength coach, Sina Ghami, died on Monday after the vehicle they were travelling in crashed into a stationary truck on a highway in Ogun State, near Lagos.

The former heavyweight champion was taken to hospital with injuries after the crash and was discharged on Wednesday.
