When the Minnesota Vikings selected BYU quarterback Jaren Hall in the fifth round of the 2023 NFL Draft, he was viewed as a project with all the physical tools to be a successful quarterback with an incredibly high ceiling. If given time and proper coaching, the Vikings could have found a quarterback to have on the roster long-term. However, as a rookie, he was thrust into action for a few games last season due to a carousel of injuries at the quarterback position and even started in two games for the Vikings. In those two games, the results were left to be…
Steph Curry did what he does best Saturday in the gold medal game at the 2024 Olympics in Paris, burying France in the final minutes by raining down unrelenting three-pointers from the perimeter to close out Team USA’s 98–87 win. While Noah Eagle and Dwyane Wade oohed and ahhed at Curry’s fourth-quarter flurry on the NBC broadcast, French broadcasters could hardly watch. “This devil named Curry is hurting us,” the broadcasters said in French, translated to English, after he nailed another three-pointer. ” … How is this possible?” Curry nailed eight three-pointers in the game—and four of those came in the…
Arsenal are interested in taking Bayern Munich winger Kingsley Coman on loan until the end of the season with the 28-year-old keen on moving to the Emirates Stadium.

Barcelona and PSG have shown interest in the winger, while Arsenal are also considering taking the player for the 2024/25 campaign. Coman is a player…
Liverpool starlet Stefan Bajcetic looks set to make a big impact for the Reds this term after impressing new coach Arne Slot in pre-season, according to reports, while a pundit has given his verdict on whether Mo Salah should be sold. Bajcetic had a tough 2023-24 campaign, as he made just three appearances across all competitions due to injury. The central midfielder, who is comfortable operating as a No 6 or No 8, picked up a calf problem in September 2023 and did not return to action until April. Bajcetic has been working with Slot in recent weeks as Liverpool prepare for their…
With the Red Sox on the brink of being swept at home for the first time since April, the presence of pitcher James Paxton, who was coming off a winning performance in his last outing, was enough to provide some hope for the weekend. But just five pitches into his day, the Red Sox starter would be forced to leave Sunday’s series finale against the Astros with a right calf strain, forcing the club to go to the bullpen early in an eventual 10-2 loss at Fenway Park. “It just felt like I got kicked in the calf,” the hobbled Paxton…

Robin van Persie’s coaching debut ended in defeat on Sunday as Heerenveen lost their opening game of the new season in the Netherlands at Ajax Amsterdam. A goal from Kristian Hlynsson was enough to send Heerenveen home without any points and leave the former Dutch international striker, who played at Arsenal and Manchester United, feeling they had missed out on an opportunity. “Based on the entire match, there might have been more in it,” Van Persie told television reporters afterwards. “We had a few chances in the first half. We had hoped that one of them would have gone in and created a bit more belief. “In the second half,…
AC Milan are getting ready to make AS Monaco a new offer for French midfielder Youssouf Fofana but the Rossoneri do not want to go above the €20m mark. As reported by Tuttosport (via Milan News), the Rossoneri are not giving up on Fofana given he wants to make the move and there is a belief that he would instantly raise the level of the midfield and help to give the defence more support. Milan are determined not to sign Fofana for more than €20m, which is an issue given Monaco have been sticking to their valuation of €35m. Given he…
Chelsea may finally be able to land a marquee striker transfer following a Newcastle decision. The Blues have contacted numerous forwards, including Jhon Duran and Jonathan David, with Alexander Isak another that emerged as an option. 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 £200million. 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…

After an impressive debut season at Roma, followed by an underwhelming one, Abraham missed much of last term through an ACL injury. However, the 26-year-old states he is “back”, while seemingly ruling out a summer exit from the Italian giants. He told reporters: “Since the first day here in Rome I have wanted to demonstrate my passion for football and my desire to help the club. I am a smiling and always positive person. This is my first…
