Chelsea have contacted Newcastle United over a possible deal to sign striker Alexander Isak this summer, as the Blues still seek to sign another forward. The Magpies talisman was fresh off an impressive season with 25 goals to his name, which certainly explained why his asking price was in the region of £115million. Arsenal were also linked to the Sweden international but any deal being done appeared close to impossible given the finances involved. However, concerns around profit and sustainability rules for Newcastle saw a chaotic dash to sell players take place. Liverpool were offered the chance to sign Anthony…
Charles Leclerc is sad to see his current teammate Carlos Sainz leave Ferrari, but at the same time he is happy with the arrival of Lewis Hamilton. The Monegasque thinks and hopes that this will make the Italian racing team a bit more tempting for outside personnel. After all, Ferrari is still busy recruiting new engineers. Team boss Frederic Vasseur has been at the helm of the Maranello-based team since January 2023 and made changes to his staff members. That is still ongoing and possibly Hamilton’s arrival will help, Leclerc believes. When the 26-year-old driver was asked by the Italian branch of…

Renowned prophet and founder of the INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele, has urged Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen to snub a move to Chelsea, claiming that the striker will not have the best of time should he join the London club. The cleric made this statement in a 44-second video on social media. “I want to quickly advise as directly that Osimhen should not go to Chelsea because if he goes there, he will not shine and it will kill his career,” Ayodele said. “NFF, if Osimhen should go to Chelsea, don’t call him again, and also calling…
Midfielder Adrien Rabiot has not found a club after contract with Juventus expired with Inter Milan and AC Milan slam door shut in his face. This is highlighted in today’s print edition of Milan-based newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport, via FCInterNews. They highlight the Frenchman’s struggle to find a new team after departing Juventus.

Ahead of the clash between AC Milan and Monza in the Trofeo Silvio Berlusconi, honouring the former president’s memory, Zlatan Ibrahimovic spoke to the media on the San Siro pitch. Standing next to Alessandro Nesta, he shared a few words on him as well. Milan will play their final friendly clash of the pre-season this evening and Paulo Fonseca has gone with a rather deputy-based starting XI. It’s certainly not as star-studded as some reports claimed earlier today, which makes sense given that the season starts in four days. Speaking to Mediaset, as cited by MilanNews, Ibrahimovic shared his thoughts on…

All teams will be based in Miami and some of the biggest league stars will participate including Reese, Kelsey Plum, and Jewell Lloyd. The league even reached an NIL deal with UConn’s Paige Bueckers to participate. Clark did not deny wanting to play in…
Alvaro Morata and Rafael Leao start for Milan in the Trofeo Berlusconi friendly against Alessandro Nesta’s Monza, but Juventus transfer target Pierre Kalulu is not even on the bench. Several versions of this event are held every summer, initially in honour of Silvio Berlusconi’s father, and now to remember the former President of both Milan and Monza, who died in June 2023. With added emotion, the new coach of Monza is former Rossoneri defender Alessandro Nesta. Paulo Fonseca has picked his starting XI including Mike Maignan, Rafael Leao and summer signing Morata in a 4-2-3-1 formation. However, despite coming along…
During the offseason, eagle-eyed Alabama football fans might have noticed a change to the Crimson Tide’s online roster. The defensive lineman formerly known as “Jaheim” Oatis, changed the spelling of his first name, and is now listed as “Jeheim.” The change signaled the possibility that Oatis’ name was spelled wrong at some point and was just being corrected. On Tuesday, after Alabama’s 11th preseason camp practice, the junior from Mississippi explained the switch. “Back when I was in primary and younger school, I spelled it two different ways,” Oatis said. “In high school I spelled it ‘Jehiem’ and when I was younger, I spelled…
