TOPJustin Herbert & Rashawn Slater Make ESPN's Annual Top 10 Lists
Two key players from the Los Angeles Chargers, Justin Herbert and Rashawn Slater, were recently recognized in ESPN analyst Jeremy Fowler's annual top 10 rankings for their positions. Quarterback Justin Herbert was ranked No. 7 on the list. He holds the NFL record for most career passing yards through five seasons with 21,093 yards. In the 2023 season, his attempts per game decreased from 35 to 29.6 due to offensive coordinator Greg Roman's run-heavy strategy, but he achieved a remarkably low interception rate of 0.6% on 504 attempts, the best since Tom Brady in 2016. Herbert threw for 3,870 yards with 23 touchdowns and three interceptions, posting a career-high passer rating of 101.7, and added 306 rushing yards with two touchdowns. An AFC executive praised him as underrated, stating Herbert is consistently a top 5-8 quarterback due to his accuracy, athleticism, and decision-making, and would be a high draft pick if the league restarted. Offensive tackle Rashawn Slater secured the No. 6 spot on his position list. Voters highlighted his athleticism as an ideal fit for Roman's system, noting he had the fewest run-block losses (68) among qualifying players who appeared in at least 12 games. Slater committed only two penalties across 904 snaps and earned Pro Bowl honors. An NFC executive emphasized that Slater excels against pressure and in schemes prioritizing movement over physicality. Additionally, rookie Joe Alt received honorable mention consideration after his first NFL season, with an AFC executive providing comments, though the specifics were not detailed in the report.

TOPOfficial: Barcelona goalkeeper leaves the club on loan
FC Barcelona has officially confirmed that goalkeeper Aron Yaakobishvili has left the club on loan to join FC Andorra in La Liga 2. The agreement, reached between Barcelona and Andorra, sees Yaakobishvili loaned until June 30, 2026. Yaakobishvili, a product of Barcelona's La Masia academy, becomes the second goalkeeper from the academy to depart on loan recently, following Ander Astralaga. He joined Barcelona in 2018 from Atletic Sant Just's youth ranks. The 19-year-old was a key player in Barça Juvenil A's treble-winning season last year under Juliano Belletti, securing the Division de Honor, Copa del Rey, and UEFA Youth League titles. He made his debut for Barcelona's reserve team, Barça Atletic, in September last year and played three times for them. While he could have competed for the starting goalkeeper position at Barça Atletic in the Spanish fourth tier next season, he will instead play for Andorra (owned by Gerard Piqué) in the second division.

Cole Palmer is top quality, but this is why he's not alongside Lamine Yamal as one of the world's ten best players
Cole Palmer concluded the season as one of football's elite players, though talkSPORT host Darren Bent questioned his inclusion in the global top ten. Palmer's decisive performances in the Conference League and Club World Cup finals—particularly his two-goal display in Chelsea's 3-0 victory over Paris Saint-Germain—propelled him to third in 2025 Ballon d'Or odds, trailing Ousmane Dembele and Lamine Yamal. Bent criticized the Ballon d'Or ranking as "reactionary," arguing Palmer's overall season fell short of his prior campaign. While acknowledging Palmer's "decent" 16 goals and 12 assists, Bent contrasted it with his "scary" previous tally of 25 goals and 15 assists, noting a dip in form with just one goal in 14 games before the Club World Cup final. Despite his critique, Bent conceded Palmer borders on his personal top ten, praising his "top top quality." He highlighted Palmer's composure in chaos, creative passing, clinical finishing, and status as Chelsea's key big-game player—essential for any future trophies. However, Bent firmly concluded: "He's not in my top ten."

Nottingham Forest want star who wowed Lionel Messi in 2022, Atletico Madrid also keen
Nottingham Forest are intensifying transfer efforts as pre-season training begins, needing to fill a significant gap after Anthony Elanga's £60 million departure to Newcastle. Further concern arises as Morgan Gibbs-White attracts interest from Tottenham, with reports suggesting his £60 million release clause has been activated. The club has made signings, welcoming Igor Jesus and Jair Cunha (praised by Ross Wilson) from Botafogo. Owner Evangelos Marinakis appears to be turning to John Textor again in pursuit of Botafogo's Thiago Almada. Almada, a 24-year-old attacking midfielder who scored twice and provided five assists in 20 appearances on loan at Lyon last season, is viewed as a potential replacement for Gibbs-White. He is set to leave Botafogo this summer and is also attracting interest from Benfica and Atletico Madrid, though his price is currently unclear. The Argentina international, who made his debut while playing for Atlanta United in MLS, received high praise from Lionel Messi for his speed, 1v1 ability, cleverness, and fearlessness. Forest believe signing Almada would be a valuable addition to ease the burden if Gibbs-White departs and represents positive progress in their recruitment drive.

Juventus consider bringing back their former goalkeeper to replace Mattia Perin
Juventus goalkeeper Mattia Perin is expected to leave the club this summer in search of a more prominent playing role. Perin, relegated to the backup position again last season behind new first-choice Michele Di Gregorio despite solid performances in limited appearances, is reportedly attracting interest from clubs like Fenerbahce, Milan, and Bologna. With Perin's anticipated departure, Juventus is actively seeking a new second-choice goalkeeper. According to reports, the club is considering re-signing Emil Audero, a product of their own youth academy. Audero, now 28, was previously a third-choice keeper at Juventus before leaving in 2017. Audero established himself at Sampdoria and was on loan at Inter last season as backup to Yann Sommer. He joined newly promoted Como last summer but was loaned to Palermo in January after failing to secure a place. He has now returned to Como, where his contract runs until 2028, but is unlikely to stay beyond this summer. Audero has represented Italy at youth levels but recently made his senior debut for Indonesia after acquiring a passport.

Top 2025 Training Camp Storylines: Who Steps Up In A New-Look WR Corps Behind Jaxon Smith-Njigba & Cooper Kupp?
The Seattle Seahawks are analyzing their receiver position as part of a training camp preview series, highlighting significant offseason changes. Key additions include free agents Cooper Kupp and Marquez Valdes-Scantling, fifth-round draft pick Tory Horton, seventh-round pick Ricky White III, and free agent Steven Sims. Departures feature franchise icon Tyler Lockett (released due to salary cap) and DK Metcalf (traded to Pittsburgh after requesting a trade). General manager John Schneider revealed the team initially aimed to extend Metcalf's contract ("Plan A"), but his trade demand forced a reshuffle. Jaxon Smith-Njigba returns as the established Pro Bowl WR1, while Cooper Kupp, signed shortly after Metcalf's trade, is projected as the other starter. Despite injury concerns since his dominant 2021 season, Kupp enters camp healthy and has impressed coaches and teammates with his work ethic and leadership, often working early/late with quarterbacks. Beyond the top two, the third receiver role is competitive. Marquez Valdes-Scantling, familiar with offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak's system from New Orleans, is a frontrunner but faces challenges from Jake Bobo and rookie Tory Horton. Horton, a deep-threat specialist from Colorado State, possesses the speed Seattle seeks but is recovering from a knee injury that limited his offseason work. Kubiak praised Valdes-Scantling's intelligence and adaptability, while Schneider highlighted Horton's underrated talent, punt-return ability, large catch radius, and competitiveness.

Aliyah Boston Is Latest WNBA Player to Invest in NWSL Team
WNBA star Aliyah Boston is purchasing an undisclosed stake in the NWSL's Boston Legacy FC, the team announced on Monday. The announcement coincided with her Indiana Fever team playing the Connecticut Sun in Boston, only the second WNBA game ever held at TD Garden. The Boston Legacy FC's primary ownership is an all-women group led by Jennifer Epstein, founder of Juno Equity. The investment group also includes three-time Olympic gold medalist Aly Raisman, actress Elizabeth Banks, and Boston Celtics GM Brad Stevens and his wife, Tracy. July 15th was declared Aliyah Boston Day in the city. In a statement, Boston expressed pride in joining the ownership group, citing Boston's role in raising her and shaping who she is. She emphasized her excitement about investing in a franchise building something special for players, the city, and women's sports overall. The three-time All-Star grew up in Massachusetts, played high school basketball at Worcester Academy (where she was a three-time Gatorade Player of the Year, won two state championships, and had her jersey retired), and feels a strong connection to the city. Jennifer Epstein stated that Boston's investment demonstrates the strength of women's sports as both the WNBA and NWSL continue to grow. Boston joins other current and former WNBA players who have become owners, such as Sabrina Ionescu (investor in Bay FC), Angel Reese (investor in DC Power FC), Candace Parker, and Sue Bird. Notably, Boston's Fever teammate, Caitlin Clark, was part of an unsuccessful bid to bring an NWSL team to Cincinnati. Boston Legacy FC will play its inaugural season at Gillette Stadium following a legal battle, before moving to its permanent home, White Stadium, in 2027. The club named Filipa Patão as its first head coach in June, with player signings planned for later this summer.

Recent Vlahovic contact with Milan keeps hope alive
AC Milan have recently made contact with striker Dusan Vlahovic, driven by manager Max Allegri's desire to reunite with the player after their time together at Juventus. Milan continues to pursue this move despite existing obstacles. Vlahovic's contract with Juventus expires in June 2026, and a contract renewal in Turin appears improbable. Consequently, a sale this summer is highly likely, with Juventus potentially allowing him to leave for a relatively affordable transfer fee of €20 million. However, the low transfer fee is offset by Vlahovic's substantial salary demands; he would bring an expensive wage of €12 million per season from Juventus. Despite this financial hurdle, the relationship between Vlahovic and Allegri remains strong following the initial contact revealed on June 7th, with further recent communication taking place. Maintaining Milan's position in the race for Vlahovic is becoming increasingly important as the weeks pass. Allegri was instrumental in bringing the Serbian striker to Juventus from Fiorentina originally. Therefore, while acknowledging a long road ahead with many obstacles, Milan remains alert and attentive to the possibility of signing Vlahovic.

How Did Jaguars' Trevor Lawrence Fare in American Century Championship?
Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence participated in the American Century Celebrity Golf Championship at Edgewood Tahoe, continuing his involvement in golf tournaments since being drafted in 2021. He competed against numerous other athletes and celebrities. Lawrence finished the tournament tied for 75th place out of 90 golfers, sharing that position with actor Miles Teller. He achieved a score of -27. Several notable figures finished below him, including Larry The Cable Guy, George Kittle, Baker Mayfield, Jason Kelce, and Rich Eisen. The top finishers were Joe Pavelski (winner), Jake Owen, John Smoltz, Steph Curry, Tony Romo, and Michael Pena. Given the strong golf presence in Jacksonville and the interest new Jaguars head coach Liam Coen has in golf, Lawrence is expected to remain a regular participant in future golf tournaments. It remains to be seen whether Coen or other Jaguars players will join him in these events. The tournament, held annually at Edgewood Tahoe since 1990, is described as the country's premier celebrity golf competition. It consistently features major names from sports and entertainment. Edgewood Tahoe also has a history of hosting significant USGA events, including the 1980 U.S. Public Links Championship (won by Jodie Mudd) and the 1985 U.S. Senior Open Championship (won by Miller Barber), which was the first televised Senior Open.

Kyle Van Noy Calls Out Los Angeles Chargers' Justin Herbert: "Relax A Bit"
The Los Angeles Chargers, led by quarterback Justin Herbert, reached the postseason but suffered a decisive 32-12 Wild Card round loss to the Houston Texans. Herbert had a poor performance in that game, completing only 43.8% of his passes for 242 yards and one touchdown, while throwing four interceptions and being sacked four times. Former Chargers teammate and current Baltimore Ravens linebacker Kyle Van Noy criticized Herbert, suggesting he needs to do more to connect with his teammates beyond attending team dinners. Van Noy acknowledged Herbert's strong work ethic but believes his perfectionism is an issue, advising him to relax, rely more on instincts, and potentially reassess his preparation balance. Despite the criticism and playoff disappointment, Herbert had a strong regular season statistically, throwing for 3,870 yards and 23 touchdowns. New head coach Jim Harbaugh, hired ahead of the 2024 season, guided the team to the playoffs and is determined to maximize Herbert's potential, aiming for eventual Pro Football Hall of Fame recognition. Looking ahead to the 2025 season, Herbert and Harbaugh enter their second year together. Key offensive developments include the emergence of rookie wide receiver Ladd McConkey (1,149 yards, 7 TDs) and significant veteran additions to bolster the unit: offensive lineman Mekhi Becton, center Andre James, tight end Tyler Conklin, wide receiver Mike Williams, and running back Najee Harris. These additions aim to support Herbert and open up the offense. The Chargers, competing in a tough AFC West, aim to build on their playoff appearance and make a deeper postseason run in 2025.

Trump kept FIFA Club World Cup trophy for himself - leaving champions Chelsea to lift a replica
President Donald Trump revealed that FIFA officials presented him with the original FIFA Club World Cup trophy, which is currently displayed in the Oval Office. Trump explained that during FIFA President Gianni Infantino's visit to the White House in March, officials asked him to hold the trophy temporarily. However, they later informed him they would not retrieve it and were making a new trophy instead, allowing the original to remain in the Oval Office "forever". This situation meant that Chelsea FC, despite winning the inaugural competition's final against Paris Saint-Germain at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, received only a replica trophy for their victory. During an interview with broadcaster DAZN before the final, Trump also joked about the possibility of issuing an executive order to change the name of "soccer" to "football" in the US, stating "I think I could do that." Trump's appearance at the final generated significant attention. He and First Lady Melania Trump were jeered by fans when shown on the stadium screens and again when he walked onto the pitch alongside Infantino to present medals to the players. Infantino had recently confirmed FIFA opened a new office in New York City's Trump Tower. Further confusion occurred online when Trump remained on stage celebrating with the Chelsea players after presenting the replica trophy to captain Reece James.

Trump says Club World Cup trophy will remain in Oval Office after tournament’s end
US President Donald Trump claims the original FIFA Club World Cup trophy displayed in the Oval Office will remain there permanently, asserting that FIFA created a copy awarded to Chelsea after they won the newly expanded tournament's final on Sunday. Trump stated FIFA told him, "You can have it forever in the Oval Office. We're making a new one," and confirmed a new trophy was indeed made. Trump attended Sunday's final alongside FIFA President Gianni Infantino and members of his cabinet. Both presidents jointly presented the trophy to Chelsea captain Reece James, with Trump positioning himself prominently at the center during the ceremony, reportedly causing apparent confusion among players and despite Infantino's pleading. This incident continues Trump's involvement with FIFA, which intensified after his second term began. Infantino first unveiled the trophy at an Oval Office event in March, and it has remained displayed there for all subsequent events in the room since that time. FIFA has not clarified if any differences exist between the two trophies. During an interview with broadcaster Dazn, Trump also suggested issuing an executive order to rename soccer as "football" in the US and claimed other world leaders call the US "the hottest country" economically and politically. He framed FIFA bringing the Club World Cup and men's World Cup to the US as promoting unity and international love through soccer. However, planning for next year's World Cup in the US faces challenges from Trump administration policies, including travel bans affecting fans from certain countries (with exceptions for athletes/staff), threats of ICE raids at games, and lengthy visa processing times.

Wesley Gassova on Bologna radar from Al-Nassr
Bologna are reportedly targeting Brazilian forward Wesley Gassova, as indicated by Sky Sport Italia, despite his €18m transfer to Al-Nassr in August 2024. The 20-year-old, who has earned nine caps for Brazil's Under-20 team, previously played for Corinthians before joining the Saudi Pro League club. At Al-Nassr, Wesley became teammates with Cristiano Ronaldo and worked briefly under Italian coach Stefano Pioli. Bologna's interest emerges as a potential contingency plan should they decide to sell Dan Ndoye this summer, though CEO Claudio Fenucci recently stated the club has "no need to sell anymore players" following Sam Beukema's transfer to Napoli, casting doubt on Ndoye's departure. Wesley offers tactical versatility, capable of playing on either wing in a trident attack or as a central supporting striker. During his debut season with Al-Nassr, he made 22 appearances across all competitions, contributing one goal and three assists.

Everton to land Cooper signing as ‘second chance’ emerges at Sheffield United
Everton may have an ideal chance to sign goalkeeper Michael Cooper from Sheffield United this summer. Cooper was one of the Championship's top-performing goalkeepers last season, but Sheffield United failed to secure promotion. This likely forces the club to sell some key players, including Cooper. Sheffield United's situation is further complicated by the arrival of new head coach Ruben Selles, who is reassessing the squad. Selles is reportedly giving goalkeeper Ivo Grbic, who conceded 32 goals in his first 10 appearances before being loaned to Rizespor, another opportunity to compete for the starting spot at Bramall Lane. This development increases the likelihood of Cooper being allowed to leave the club. Everton has a clear need for a goalkeeper. While Jordan Pickford remains the number one, he is now 31, necessitating a long-term succession plan. Furthermore, backups Joao Virginia and Asmir Begovic have left the club after their contracts expired, creating an immediate requirement for a reliable deputy. Cooper, with his consistent performances at a high level in the Championship for Sheffield United and previously Plymouth Argyle, is viewed as an excellent potential signing to address both Everton's immediate backup needs and future starting role.

Is Baker Mayfield Underrated?
During the peak of NFL "List Season," BSPN researcher Evan Kaplan highlighted an overlooked statistic: Baker Mayfield leads the league in touchdown passes since joining the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Amid widespread quarterback rankings placing Mayfield anywhere from 5th to 16th, the analysis suggests his performance should establish a floor of 8th, noting that similar achievements by higher-profile players like Lamar Jackson would generate disproportionate acclaim despite Jackson having only one more career playoff win than Mayfield. Buccaneers coach Todd Bowles is credited for persistently advocating the signing of Mayfield to general manager Jason Licht. The move proved remarkably efficient, as Mayfield replaced Tom Brady without costing any draft picks. Remarkably, in the two years following Brady’s retirement, Mayfield emerged as the NFL’s touchdown pass leader. Specific statistics from Kaplan’s July 2025 tweet underscore Mayfield’s impact: He has thrown 69 touchdown passes over his two seasons with Tampa Bay. In 2024, he became only the fourth quarterback in NFL history (alongside Drew Brees, Aaron Rodgers, and Joe Burrow) to achieve 40+ touchdown passes and a 70% completion rate in a single season. The development is viewed as a historic breakthrough for the Buccaneers, who secured a franchise quarterback in his prime after 45 years of searching. Mayfield’s willingness to accept team-friendly contracts is noted as an exceptionally rare advantage complementing his on-field success.

49ers' Juszczyk Says 'Incredible' Christian McCaffrey Looks 'Healthy' and 'Explosive'
Kyle Juszczyk expressed strong admiration for Christian McCaffrey's performance during the San Francisco 49ers' offseason activities, telling The Athletic that McCaffrey appears "healthy" and "explosive" following a challenging 2024 season. Juszczyk emphasized McCaffrey's elite status, calling him "arguably the best player in the NFL" and noting his transformative impact on the team. McCaffrey's 2024 season was derailed by injuries, beginning with a calf strain in training camp that sidelined him for the first eight weeks. After returning in Week 10, he recorded over 100 scrimmage yards in his first two games but lacked his characteristic explosiveness from his 2023 Offensive Player of the Year campaign. His season ended prematurely in Week 13 with a PCL injury against the Buffalo Bills. NFL Next Gen Stats revealed his max speeds during those games—ranging from 16.1 to 17.4 mph—were notably slower than his 2023 benchmarks, with 17.4 mph ranking among his fifth-worst performances that year. Teammates and coaches have echoed Juszczyk's positive assessment after McCaffrey's full offseason recovery. Offensive coordinator Klay Kubiak described him as "awesome" during June minicamp, while head coach Kyle Shanahan stated in May that McCaffrey is "as ready as any player" and "healthy as can be," though the team aims to manage his workload carefully. With significant defensive roster changes this offseason, the 49ers' offense—featuring Brock Purdy, George Kittle, Trent Williams, and others—faces pressure to perform while new defenders acclimate. Brandon Aiyuk's availability is uncertain due to ACL/MCL recovery, but the unit retains a strong foundation. McCaffrey's health remains pivotal to San Francisco's success. The team fielded one of the NFL's most historically efficient offenses in 2023 when he led the league with 2,023 scrimmage yards and 21 touchdowns. If he approaches that form again, the 49ers are poised to be NFC playoff contenders.

Juventus draw four-man shortlist to replace Weah – Fiorentina star the favourite
Juventus are preparing to sell Timothy Weah in the near future, as the versatile 25-year-old American wide player is not part of the club's plans for next season. Although a previous attempt to transfer him alongside Samuel Mbangula to Nottingham Forest failed when both players rejected the move, Weah is still expected to leave. He appears more receptive to a return to France, with Olympique Marseille making significant progress in negotiations with Juventus. Weah's departure, coupled with the expected exit of Alberto Costa to Sporting CP, creates a need for Juventus to sign a new right-sided wingback. Consequently, the club has compiled a four-man shortlist of potential replacements. According to reports, Dodo (26, Fiorentina) is Juventus's preferred target. However, Fiorentina is demanding a €30 million transfer fee, complicating negotiations despite recent contact between the clubs. The Brazilian's contract runs until 2027. With the Dodo deal facing hurdles, Juventus is exploring other options. These include experienced players Silvan Widmer (Mainz captain) and Jonathan Clauss (Marseille, who previously played under Juventus-linked manager Igor Tudor). Additionally, the club is monitoring young Atalanta wingback Marco Palestra (20), who has struggled for playing time due to competition.

Broncos given underwhelming record prediction for the 2025 NFL Season
The Denver Broncos significantly exceeded expectations in the 2024 NFL season by winning 10 games and reaching the postseason, despite widespread predictions of only 3-4 wins. This success was largely attributed to quarterback Bo Nix’s performance and head coach Sean Payton’s leadership. Following notable offseason roster additions, optimism surrounds the team’s prospects for 2025, with some analysts projecting them to win the AFC West and contend for the championship. However, NFL Network’s Adam Rank forecasts a more modest 11-6 record for the Broncos in 2025—just a one-win improvement from 2024. Critics argue that an 11-win season would actually be disappointing given the team’s strong finish in 2024 (winning 10 of their final 15 games) and Nix’s exceptional late-season form, which included a 45-touchdown pace over the last eight games. Combined with their offseason upgrades, many believe the Broncos are capable of achieving 12–14 wins, making an 11-6 prediction seem conservative relative to their upward trajectory.

Italian newspaper reveals key date in Juventus talks for Kolo Muani
Monday, July 14, 2025, is reported as a key date for Juventus in their negotiations to sign striker Randal Kolo Muani from Paris Saint-Germain (PSG). Juventus director Damien Comolli is expected to send a new offer to PSG for the French forward on that day. Kolo Muani's loan spell at Juventus ended following the club's elimination from the Club World Cup the previous month. While Juventus wants to keep him, PSG is aiming for a permanent transfer, valuing the player between €40 million and €45 million. In contrast, Juventus is likely to propose a loan deal that includes an option to buy him permanently at a later date. A previous report from the same source indicated that Juventus was preparing an offer of €10 million for a one-season loan deal plus an option to buy. This pursuit comes despite Juventus already securing striker Jonathan David on a free transfer from Lille. The club is also reportedly eager to sell Dusan Vlahovic, who is unwilling to extend his contract beyond 2026.

Arsenal dream post-transfer XI for Man Utd opener as Andrea Berta cooks up a storm
Millwall is set to announce the signing of an athletic Premier League defender, while Fabrizio Romano has provided an update on Morgan Gibbs-White's potential move to Tottenham amid transfer developments. Arsenal has been highly active in the transfer window, with sporting director Andrea Berta driving significant moves. The club has secured a major central midfield signing and is expected to finalize high-value acquisitions for forward and wing positions soon. Arsenal has also strengthened its squad depth by signing players from Chelsea and Brentford, while allowing others to depart as their contracts expire. With the Premier League season approaching, Arsenal's opening match is against Manchester United on August 17. A potential starting lineup preview includes David Raya as goalkeeper, facing new competition from Kepa Arrizabalaga, and a defensive line featuring Myles Lewis-Skelly, Gabriel, Cristhian Mosquera, and Jurrien Timber amid speculation over William Saliba's future and interest from Real Madrid. In midfield, Declan Rice, Martin Zubimendi, and Martin Odegaard are highlighted as key players.

Sources: Madueke leaves for Arsenal medical
Noni Madueke has departed Chelsea's training camp to finalize a £50 million transfer to Arsenal, according to ESPN sources. The 23-year-old winger is scheduled for a medical examination on Saturday ahead of completing the move to the north London club. Madueke participated in Chelsea's Club World Cup campaign, starting two matches during their run to Sunday's final against Paris Saint-Germain, though he remained on the bench during their semifinal victory over Fluminense. Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca publicly confirmed the impending transfer during a Friday news conference, stating the club approved the move after Madueke expressed his desire to join Arsenal. Maresca emphasized the player's personal decision, remarking: "Noni decided he wants to leave. Nobody said he had to. If he is happy, we are happy." The manager acknowledged the difficulty such departures pose for clubs but respected the player's choice. Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta, a long-standing admirer of the England international, had previously explored signing Madueke last summer. Despite Madueke's primary position being right wing—currently occupied by Bukayo Saka—Arteta believes he can develop the player into an effective left winger. Having joined Chelsea from PSV Eindhoven in 2023 for €35 million, Madueke made 46 appearances last season, scoring 11 goals and providing 5 assists across all competitions. He notably started in Chelsea's Conference League final victory against Real Betis. This transfer marks Arsenal's second acquisition from Chelsea this summer following goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga.

Serie A Side Readying Bid For Long-Standing Celtic Target
Celtic have completed several signings during the summer transfer window, including Ross Doohan, Hayato Inamura, Benjamin Nygren, Callum Osmand, and the high-profile addition of Kieran Tierney. The club has also seen departures, with Scott Bain, Gustaf Lagerbielke, Maik Nawrocki, Jeffrey Schlupp, Greg Taylor, and the most recent exit Nicolas Kuhn leaving Parkhead. Kuhn has joined Italian Serie A side Como FC. Reports indicate that Como FC, the big-spending Serie A club, is now set to pursue a long-standing Celtic target: Motherwell midfielder Lennon Miller. According to the Scottish Sun, Como are preparing a bid for Miller. Miller, who was named Scotland's young player of the year, is also a target for another Italian club, Udinese, whose previous bid was rejected in January. Interest extends beyond Italy, with Championship sides Southampton and Ipswich Town also monitoring his situation. Miller's father, former Scotland international Lee Miller, has suggested his son would favour a move abroad. Motherwell's new manager, Jens Berthel Askou, has acknowledged the heightened interest in the Scotland international midfielder and conceded that Miller is likely to leave the club this summer. While Miller's future destination remains uncertain, Celtic currently have multiple midfield options competing for places, including captain Callum McGregor, Reo Hatate, Arne Engels, Paulo Bernardo, and Luke McCowan.

2 injured Arsenal players back training with the ball
Arsenal players Gabriel Magalhaes and Reiss Nelson have joined the squad for the pre-season trip to Spain and participated in a training session on Thursday. Photos showed both players actively training with the ball at their feet, indicating they have progressed beyond basic running exercises in their recoveries. Gabriel expressed his happiness at returning via an Instagram post stating "Happy to be back. Let’s go!!". The exact readiness of Gabriel and Nelson for match action remains unclear. Gabriel suffered a hamstring injury on April 1st which required surgery; it has now been just over three months since his operation, a recovery timeframe similar to previous hamstring injuries experienced by teammates Bukayo Saka and Kai Havertz. In a behind-the-scenes video, Gabriel mentioned he would be back fit "soon". Nelson also underwent surgery for a hamstring problem while on loan at Fulham. His operation occurred five months ago, suggesting he should be ready to return. However, Arsenal will exercise caution with the winger due to his history of previous injury setbacks.

Four Serie A stars on Barcelona’s shopping list for the summer
Barcelona is reportedly targeting four Serie A stars for the 2025 summer transfer window: Kenan Yildiz from Juventus, Dusan Vlahovic from Juventus, Ademola Lookman from Atalanta, and Rafael Leao from AC Milan. This move comes as the club seeks attacking reinforcements after Nico Williams extended his contract with Athletic Club. Three of these targets—Yildiz, Lookman, and Leao—play on the left wing, similar to Williams, but only Lookman appears readily available for transfer. Juventus is planning to offer Yildiz an improved contract, and Leao is considered a key player under AC Milan coach Massimiliano Allegri, making their acquisitions difficult. Agent Jorge Mendes has already discussed Yildiz and Leao with Barcelona director Deco, but these negotiations do not simplify the potential deals for the club. Vlahovic is expected to leave Juventus this summer as he is unwilling to sign a new contract beyond 2026. Barcelona has recently inquired about the striker's availability, and he could become a primary target, especially if he terminates his contract for a free transfer.

Newcastle transfer news: Anthony Elanga completes £55m move to Champions League-bound side from Nottingham Forest
Newcastle United have secured the signing of forward Anthony Elanga from Nottingham Forest in a transfer deal potentially worth up to £55 million. The initial fixed fee is £52 million, with an additional £3 million contingent on performance-related add-ons. Elanga, 23, played a pivotal role for Forest under manager Nuno Espirito Santo last season, contributing six goals and 11 assists in the Premier League. His performances were instrumental in helping Forest achieve qualification for European competition in the upcoming campaign. This acquisition marks Newcastle's second winger signing of the summer, following the arrival of 18-year-old Spaniard Antonio Cordero on a free transfer from Malaga. Cordero is expected to be loaned out. Elanga expressed his readiness to fight for Newcastle, praising the passionate fanbase and stating he was "really happy to be here." He acknowledged his positive two years at Forest but emphasized his excitement about being part of Newcastle's unique project, referencing their recent trophy win. Manager Eddie Howe hailed Elanga as an "exciting talent" whose pace, energy, and goal contributions will strengthen the team's attacking play.
