Guernsey Police resumed their search and rescue operation for the plane carrying Cardiff City striker Emiliano Sala on Wednesday morning.

The Argentine striker was on board an aircraft which disappeared from radar near the Channel Islands on Monday evening.

Guernsey Police confirmed a "number of floating objects" were found in the water before Tuesday's search was suspended, although rescuers were unable to ascertain if they were from the missing aircraft.

John Fitzgerald, chief officer of the Channel Island Air Search, said a cushion and bent piece of metal were among the objects recovered.
