With Monaco being difficult in negotiations with AC Milan for Youssouf Fofana, the Rossoneri are being forced to look at other options for their midfield. The Fofana saga is close to being filed under the ‘dragging’ category, if it is not already there, and there are two ways to view the situation. Either, Milan are playing the situation correctly, safe in the knowledge that the midfielder could join next summer for free, so why pay an extortionate amount? Then, with Paulo Fonseca stating that the midfielder is the top choice, why wait around? Whichever way the situation is viewed, the knowledge is…
Another crisis has broken out in the Chelsea dressing room, with Ben Chilwell reported to be so furious with manager Enzo Maresca that he is demanding to leave the club.

The Los Angeles Lakers have made legends by wearing purple and gold throughout their historic time, but none may have been more impactful and filled their role than former Defensive Player of the Year, Michael Cooper. Copper was a pivotal player for the Lakers during their Showtime era in the 1980s.

The Hall of Famer knows a thing or two about the game of basketball and isn’t…

The Spain international is said to have a £47million release clause in his contract, which looks to be a bargain in today’s…
In recent months, AC Milan have been trying to secure a deal with Monaco for their midfielder Youssouf Fofana, and today, Thiago Scuro, Monaco’s Director of Football, has commented on the current situation. The mercato has been slow this summer, likely due to the European Championship and Copa America, but there remains time for deals to be completed, and this is only a good thing for Milan as they attempt to finalise a deal for Fofana.

AC Milan’s work in the summer transfer market is far from done with over a couple of weeks still to go, and Zlatan Ibrahimovic confirmed as much today. As Calciomercato.com recall, Ibrahimovic spoke to the journalists present at Casa Milan this morning during Emerson Royal’s press conference, and once again returned to his biblical analogy: “This is the fifth day of the seven that God created.” Emerson joins Alvaro Morata and Strahinja Pavlovic to become the third summer signing, but there are still gaps in the squad to be filled and players to offload too, all while keeping an eye on the regulations.…

Change has a prominent seat for the 2024 college football season, and that’s certainly the case in Tuscaloosa. Alabama football not only has a new coach in Kalen DeBoer and plenty of changes to the program, but the Crimson Tide also has two new teams in its conference in Texas and Oklahoma. There’s an expanded College Football Playoff, and oh by the way, there’s been a change to in-game communication. Earlier this year, the NCAA gave the green light to helmet communication for players and coaches to communicate for the 2024 season. A coach will be able to talk with one player…
