Despite the ‘tensions’ between clubs in recent days Fonseca is the first choice, but latest offer of €17m in total has not yet been deemed…
One of the most exciting talents in Belgium at the moment is Fernandez-Pardo, and AC Milan have reportedly had an offer turned down for the winer. TMW report that there is a queue developing for Fernandez-Pardo after an extraordinary breakout season especially in the second half of the campaign, where he blossomed and made his value soar to the current €15m euros needed to secure his services.

They have held just 10 practices, which is not a lot in the grand scheme of things and have yet to participate in a preseason game. So there’s plenty of time for players to emerge or fall off. However, through the first two weeks at Saint Vincent College, some trends are beginning to emerge. Let’s take a look at whose stock is up and whose is down. After dealing Diontae Johnson, the Steelers created an…
Tyler Booker had trouble hiding what excites him for the 2024 season when he spoke at SEC Media Days in July. The Alabama football offensive lineman didn’t hold back or try to downplay how much he’s looking forward to seeing what the running game can do this season. “I’m just very excited to block for those guys,” Booker said. “Those guys in that room are special.” Booker was asked in Dallas who he predicted would be a breakout player for the Crimson Tide this season, and he decided to pick a group. “I think the running back room is really…
Lazar Samardzic is one of the key targets for AC Milan this month and although there is a total agreement with the player, Udinese are yet to show any openings.

Samardzic’s name emerged as a concrete option for Milan a few weeks back and although there was optimism initially, the negotiations have cooled down.

AC Milan are adamant that they will only sign Youssouf Fofana on the right terms and they are evaluating alternative targets, according to a report. As La Gazzetta dello Sport report this morning, the Milan management are looking to complete the midfield after signing Alvaro Morata for the attack and Strahinja Pavlovic for the defence, with Emerson Royal also close. Milan would like a physical midfielder who is also comfortable in build-up, i.e. someone who can protect the defence but also start attacks. Youssouf Fofana is the name chosen and ‘every day, from today, could be the decisive one’…
Hamilton has not had it all his own way since Toto Wolff decided to ditch Valtteri Bottas and promote academy driver George Russell. The young Brit bested his team mate in their first year together in 2022 and Hamilton returned the favour in ’23. This year Lewis has been out qualified by Russell again but in recent weeks has been closing the gap with the score currently at 6-8.

The Dallas Mavericks had one of the best duos of the early 2000s, rolling out with Dirk Nowitzki and Steve Nash, who would each win MVP awards later in their careers. The Mavs won 50+ games each of Nash’s last four seasons with the team, including a run to the Western Conference Finals in 2003, before Nash went back to the Phoenix Suns. Nash had an incredible run from 2000-2011, averaging 16.6 PPG and 9.8 APG while being one of the best three-point and free-throw shooters in the NBA and guided some of the league’s best offenses. He won back-to-back MVPs in 2005 and 2006 for his…
