Alabama freshman cornerback Zabien Brown has been the recipient of a lot of praise through the first few days of fall camp. During Sunday morning’s media viewing period of the fourth day of Alabama’s fall camp, Brown could be seed with a small cast on his left hand while he participated in drills. Following practice, head coach Kalen DeBoer provided an update on Brown’s status after the apparent minor injury. “He’s just slowed up here a couple days, but he’ll be back fine — middle of next week,” DeBoer said. “He’s out there practicing, too. Getting some reps in.” After…
According to a report in Sky Sports Italy (as relayed by Milan News), Tottenham and AC Milan are now discussing how the add-ons and bonuses would be structured as Emerson Royal’s move to the Serie A club gets closer.

Sky Italy explain that the main sticking point has been the transfer fee but that is now close to being resolved, with the two clubs nearing the ‘closing of the deal’. The report says that the parties…
Lando Norris’ previous comments downplaying countryman Lewis Hamilton’s Formula One achievements have come back to haunt the British driver. The Mercedes man earned his record-extending 105th Formula One victory at the Belgian Grand Prix, albeit under controversial circumstances. Hamilton had finished second behind team-mate George Russell, only for the latter to be disqualified for having an ‘underweight’ vehicle. As a result, Hamilton was bumped up to first – his second victory of the 2024 season. By contrast, McLaren star Norris – with one of the strongest cars on the grid – has just one win to his name this year, with unearthed comments about…
Chelsea have reportedly suffered a significant blow in their pursuit of Napoli forward Victor Osimhen. The Blues have been active in the summer transfer window, having recruited Tosin Adarabioyo, Caleb Wiley, Omari Kellyman, Filip Jorgensen, Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and Renato Veiga. They also strengthened their forward options with the addition of Spain Under-19 international Marc Guiu from Barcelona. While Guiu has impressed in pre-season, Chelsea are keen to bring in an established forward to compete with Nicolas Jackson. They have been heavily linked with a potential move for Napoli’s Osimhen, who has a significant release clause in the region of £110m. Napoli president Aurelio De Laurentiis has previously stated that he is unwilling to accept anything below…
Barcelona fear that they will not be able to land Nico Williams as they hoped and they have turned their attention to AC Milan’s Rafael Leao, a report claims. After starring at the European Championship with Spain, Barca have been pushing hard to sign Williams from Athletic Bilbao but have so far met stern resistance. As a result, they are having to evaluate alternative options. According to El Nacional, Deco – the sporting director – has several names on his agenda in case Williams does not arrive. One of them is Luis Díaz of Liverpool, and he would cost around €60m,…
The Pittsburgh Steelers are hoping to have their “pole position” starting quarterback on the field sooner rather than later as they enter the final two weeks of training camp at Saint Vincent College. After suffering a calf injury during the team’s conditioning test, Russell Wilson has been sidelined for a majority of practice, but could return as soon as next week. According to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero, there’s “optimism” that Wilson will be back to a full participant when the team returns to practice next week.

The bulk of NBA transactions are done for a while, with the next key progression in the NBA world is the beginning of training camp just before preseason begins. The Houston Rockets could be in the market for trades, however. Right now, the Rockets are in a weird spot as it pertains to the roster. They’ve got Jalen Green and Alperen Sengun as two young pieces with legitimate star potential.

Milan are confident that Tottenham Hotspur will let Emerson Royal leave for his medical over the next 48 hours after months of negotiations. The right-back made it clear earlier in the summer that he wanted to make the move to San Siro and agreed personal terms, but getting a deal done with the club was a very different matter.

The final cost of the operation is believed to be €15m plus €1-2m in performance-related add-ons that might be quite…
The Guardians wouldn’t go away quietly. The Orioles built two early leads Sunday — a three-run advantage in the third inning and a four-run edge in the fourth — and both times Cleveland, MLB’s best team, chipped away to trail by only one. But Baltimore’s counterpunches were stronger. In the fourth, Jackson Holliday and Gunnar Henderson — two former No. 1 overall prospects — homered to provide a cushion for starter Corbin Burnes. After Josh Naylor’s three-run blast threatened the Orioles’ lead, Ryan Mountcastle and Adley Rutschman teamed up with RBI hits in the sixth for welcomed insurance en route…
Lewis Hamilton has previously hinted at a potential career change after F1, with the current Mercedes driver setting his sights on the Olympic Games.
