Arsenal are interested in signing a £40m-rated Premier League player who is now open to leaving his current club in January, according to a report.

Arsenal linked with new defenders

Although they endured a slow start to the campaign, Arsenal have shown signs of real improvement over the past few weeks, and they look particularly impressive from an attacking point of view, notching 13 goals in their last three matches.

The Gunners had the best defensive record in the top flight last season, shipping just 29 goals across the season, and despite their attacking prowess, they have looked a little more vulnerable defensively this term.

As such, Mikel Arteta may be keen to bring in some reinforcements at the back to provide the strong centre-back pairing of Gabriel and William Saliba with some extra solidity.

Last month, Arsenal are said to have made an approach for Sporting CP defender Ousmane Diomande, while Jules Kounde has also been linked with a move to the Emirates Stadium due to Arteta’s admiration of the Frenchman.

Arsenal keen on Bournemouth's Kerkez

Not only has Arteta been running the rule over a number of centre-backs, but the manager may also now be keen on a new full-back, with Caught Offside reporting that AFC Bournemouth’s Milos Kerkez is on the list of potential options in that position for Arsenal.

Kerkez may be available sooner rather than later, with the report stating that he is open to a move away from his current club this January, and there are a number of other clubs also vying for his signature.

Liverpool are said to be stepping up their interest in the left-back, with the likes of Tottenham, Chelsea and Aston Villa also being named as potential suitors. Should Bournemouth sanction the 21-year-old’s departure, they would be looking to receive a fee in the region of £40m.

After his move to Bournemouth in the summer of 2023, the youngster was tipped for success by former teammate Mathew Ryan, who said:

“Milos is a great boy. A crazy dude, in a good way. He is always positive and smiling. Hopefully he can develop even further in England and become even more mature. He is aggressive, powerful and has so many qualities. A unique skill set. Bournemouth is going to get stronger because of him. Milos still has a great career ahead of him.”

Since then, the Hungary international has really kicked on, establishing himself as a first-team regular for the Cherries, so it is no wonder some of the Premier League’s top clubs could soon come calling.

NBC Sports’ Robbie Mustoe has also explained that he believes Kerkez is one of the best left-backs in the Premier League:

However, Arsenal are well-stocked at left-back, with Riccardo Calafiori and Oleksandr Zinchenko at Arteta’s disposal, so signing the Bournemouth star could be low down the list of priorities this winter, although it looks like one to watch following this update.

Among other major signings, Tallawahs signed allrounder Fabian Allen and opener Brandon King

Deivarayan Muthu04-Apr-2022

Andre Russell will join West Indies’ white-ball captain Kieron Pollard and his deputy Nicholas Pooran at Trinbago Knight Riders for CPL 2022. Sunil Narine has also been retained by the franchise, making it a star-studded pre-draft core already. Notably, this will be the first time in the history of the CPL that Russell and Pollard will be playing together for the same franchise. Russell is currently playing for the other Knight Riders franchise – Kolkata – at the IPL in India.In April 2020, Russell had called the Jamaica Tallawahs the “weirdest” team he had ever played for, announcing that the 2020 season would be his last with the side. However, ahead of CPL 2021, he was retained by the franchise. He had a fairly ordinary season with Tallawahs in 2021, managing just 160 runs in ten innings to go with 11 wickets in 31.1 overs. He has now moved from his home franchise to Knight Riders.As for Pooran, he will reunite with his mentor Pollard after having captained Guyana Amazon Warriors to the semi-finals in the most recent CPL. Pollard and Narine aside, fast bowler Jayden Seales, left-arm fingerspinner Akeal Hosein and top-order batter Tion Webster were also retained by Knight Riders.However, they will be without Darren Bravo, as he will link up with his elder brother Dwayne Bravo at St Kitts & Nevis Patriots, who won their maiden title last year. The Bravo brothers had previously played together for Knight Riders.Among other major signings, big-hitting allrounder Fabian Allen went from Patriots to Tallawahs and opening batter Brandon King from Warriors to Tallawahs. Rovman Powell, who walloped a 51-ball T20I century earlier this year, and Kennar Lewis, the latest West Indies T20 globetrotter on the block, were among those retained by Tallawahs.Allrounder Keemo Paul, meanwhile, returned to Amazon Warriors after having been part of St Lucia Kings last season. Left-arm fingerspinner Gudakesh Motie, who made his T20I debut for West Indies in December last year in Pakistan, is the other new signing at Warriors. He will join Shimron Hetmyer, Odean Smith, Romario Shepherd and Chandrapaul Hemraj.Barbados Royals retained Jason Holder and Hayden Walsh Jr, who is currently with Rajasthan Royals as a net bowler in India. Obed McCoy, who was part of the Kings roster last season, will turn out for Royals in the forthcoming season. The left-arm seamer also features in Royals’ squad in the IPL. Wicketkeeper-batter Devon Thomas has also moved from Patriots to Royals. Thomas recently opened the batting with Kennar Lewis for Kandy Warriors in the Sri Lanka Premier League.CPL 2022 is set to kick off on August 30 and the final will be held at the Providence Stadium in Guyana on September 30. This is the first time the CPL final will be held in Guyana and a long-term staging agreement means Guyana will also host the final in 2023 and 2024.The inaugural season of the Women’s CPL, featuring three teams, is set to run alongside the men’s event this year.

كشف مهاجم إنتر ميامي، لويس سواريز عن بعض التفاصيل المتعلقة بمستقبله مع كرة القدم، بالإضافة إلى الحديث عن زميله في الفريق الأمريكي، ليونيل ميسي، ورغبته في المشاركة في كأس العالم 2026.

واعتزل سواريز دوليًا مع منتخب أوروجواي، لكنه لا يزال يشارك مع إنتر ميامي برفقة زميله، ليونيل ميسي.

وقال سواريز حين سُئل عمّا إذا كان تحدث مع ميسي عن الاعتزال في حواره مع صحيفة “La Ovacion” في أوروجواي: “نحن نتحدث أحيانًا بشكل فكاهي، لكن لديه أيضًا تلك الرغبة في اللعب في كأس العالم القادمة بالطبع”.

وتابع: “الأمر مختلف معي بعض الشيء، عندما ابتعدت عن منتخب أوروجواي لم يؤثر ذلك علي كما يحدث مع ميسي”.

وعن مدى تكرار سؤال الكثير من الناس لميسي عن قرار مشاركته في كأس العالم 2026 وهل يفعل ذلك؟، قال: “لا أسأله حتى عن الأمر، هناك أشخاص لا يفهمون طريقة تفكير ليو، لكن أنا أعرفه وعندما يحين الوقت سيحدد موعد اعتزاله”.

وفيما يخص مستقبله مع كرة القدم، قال: “لم أحدد بعد متى، ما دام عندي الرغبة والشغف بداخلي للاستمرار، فسأستمر، لا يوجد تاريخ محدد للاعتزال”.

أما بالنسبة لتمديد عقده مع إنتر ميامي، أضاف سواريز: “النادي منفتح على ذلك، وكل شيء يعتمد على حالتي البدنية ومساهمتي مع الفريق حتى نهاية الموسم”.

وعن مستقبل مواطنه ومهاجم ليفربول، داروين نونيز، وإمكانية رحيله قال: “القرار قراره، لكنني أعتقد أن الدوري الإنجليزي هو الأفضل، ما يقدمه مهم جدًا لمنتخب أوروجواي”.

الجدير بالذكر أن ميسي وسواريز يستعدان بقوة من أجل المشاركة في بطولة كأس العالم للأندية 2025 ومواجهة الأهلي في افتتاح المسابقة يوم 15 يونيو المقبل.

Weeks do not come much bigger than this for Celtic.

On Tuesday night, the Hoops went in search of three more precious Champions League points when they took on GNK Dinamo Zagreb in the Croatian capital, having lost all three previous visits to Stadion Maksimir, beaten 2-1 in 1963, 3-0 in 1998 and, most recently, 4-3 almost exactly a decade ago to the day. This time, however, they came away with a 0-0 to show for their efforts.

Next up on Sunday, Brendan Rodgers’ side are massive favourites to beat fierce rivals Rangers in the League Cup Final at Hampden, aiming to hoist aloft a 20th piece of major silverware, out of a possible 25, since Rodgers first arrived in Glasgow.

Celtic’s success throughout the decades, including in modern times, has been built upon a bedrock of home-grown Scottish talents.

Captain Callum McGregor has been sensational this season, scoring six Premiership goals already, each of which has come from outside the box, and made his 486th appearance for the club in Zagreb, on course to become just the 14th man to feature 500+ times for the Hoops.

One player who’s already reached that milestone is James Forrest, last Saturday’s half time introduction against Hibernian was the 516th occasion the winger has represented the Bhoys, with the 33-year-old an increasingly uncommon one-club-man.

Left-back Greg Taylor too is an important cog in the Celtic machine, but the Scottish champions don’t always get it right when it comes to hoovering up the best domestic talent.

Mixed results for Celtic's domestic signings

Throughout their history, Celtic have been able to cherry-pick the best young Scottish talents from other Premiership clubs.

Simply looking at the last decade, after Dundee United made a strong start to the season in 2014/15, the Hoops paid a combined £2.25m for the Tangerines’ two best players, Stuart Armstrong and Gary Mackay-Steven, quelling any title talk that was beginning to brew at Tannadice.

Ryan Christie (Inverness Caley Thistle; £500,000), Scott Allan (Hibs; £250,000), Jack Hendry (Dundee; £1.2m), Lewis Morgan (St Mirren; £300,000), Greg Taylor (Kilmarnock; £2m), David Turnbull (Motherwell; £3.25m), and Luke McCowan (Dundee; £1m) are all subsequent examples of Celtic buying up the best young Scottish talents, paying fees their domestic rivals simply cannot turn down, the latter arriving as recently as late-August.

So why do this? Well, there’s of course the Bayern Munich-esque aspect to it of asserting your domestic dominance by weakening your rivals. But, more tangibly, Celtic require both “club-trained” and “association-trained” players for their UEFA competition squad, required to have at least eight domestic players, hence why the likes of Scott Bain, Anthony Ralston and Stephen Welsh are still in the squad, despite ever featured very often.

The list of Scottish players above outlines a pretty mixed bag, and there is one player on that list who didn’t achieve much at Parkhead but has gone on to star across the pond.

Lewis Morgan's post-Celtic career

Lewis Morgan arrived from St Mirren in July 2018, but made little impact at Celtic, scoring just two goals in 31 appearances, these coming against AIK in a Europa League qualifier in Stockholm and during a dead-rubber group stage victory over Stade Rennais.

When he arrived, Morgan discussed how he prided himself on his ambidexterity, saying that he idolised club-legend Ľubomír Moravčík, but fair to say he did not earn the same cult-hero status as was bestowed upon the Czechoslovakian midfielder.

Morgan actually spent the second half of his debut campaign on loan at Sunderland, before being sold to MLS expansion club Inter Miami in January 2020 for just £400k.

His two seasons in Fort Lauderdale were chaotic and largely disrupted by Covid-19, scoring just seven times in 58 outings for the Herons, but he must’ve caught the eye of some impressed onlookers in New Jersey because, in January 2023, Morgan joined New York Red Bulls, who paid a not insubstantial $1.2m in General Allocation Money for his services.

The Scotsman has certainly found a home in the Big Apple, scoring 31 goals in 79 matches for RBNY, named MLS Comeback Player of the Year in 2024, the award given to the player “who showed impressive improvement after overcoming a serious injury… or after a previous slump in their career”.

Morgan was a key figure as New York reached the MLS Cup for only the second time in franchise history, their sole previous appearance coming in 2008, narrowly beaten 2-1 by LA Galaxy at Dignity Health Sports Park on Saturday.

To achieve this for a generally mediocre Red Bulls team, who finished seventh in the Eastern Conference, becoming the lowest-seeded side to ever reach the MLS Cup, is not bad going for a player who showed very few glimpses of his full potential during his brief time at Celtic.

Morgan has even worked his way back into Steve Clarke’s Scotland plans this year, including in the Euro 2024 squad, earning his first caps for six years, also featuring off the bench during three UEFA Nations League A fixtures in the autumn. Perhaps the Hoops may rue letting him leave all those years ago?

Rashid Khan: To be an Afghan player and be on verge of 100 IPL wickets is amazing

Big pictureIs this going to be the day we finally see a captain winning the toss and opting to bat? If the coin falls Sanju Samson’s way against Gujarat Titans in Navi Mumbai, Rajasthan Royals may just do that. After all, their three wins – in four games – have come batting first, a promising start to IPL 2022 that has kept them top of the points table. A win on Thursday will keep them there. A loss will put their opponents at No. 1 for the time being.With the ball, Trent Boult and Yuzvendra Chahal have led the way. Boult showed in Royals’ three-run win over Lucknow Super Giants that a par total could be defended if the new-ball bowler picks off a few in the powerplay. Chahal continues to take the wickets in partnership with R Ashwin through the middle overs, and takes them at a miserly economy rate too. Prasidh Krishna bowls in tandem with Boult and then again later, and young quick Kuldeep Sen showed on debut the other day why he is rated highly by the Royals management – he successfully defended 14 runs in the final over bowling to Marcus Stoinis on Sunday.Watch the IPL live on ESPN+

If you’re in the USA, you can watch Mumbai Indians vs Punjab Kings LIVE on ESPN+ in English and in Hindi.

With the bat, Jos Buttler and Shimron Hetmyer have been making crucial contributions, Devdutt Padikkal is beginning to bloom after being promoted to the opening spot, and Samson has looked good without putting up a big score since the first game. However, there is a weakness that has been exposed a few times – the lower-middle order. At No. 6, Riyan Parag has not contributed much, and Ashwin at No. 7 is not the power player some teams want at that spot.That’s one of the areas Titans should look to exploit, with wicket-taking bowlers operating through the middle overs. Lockie Ferguson – although expensive in his last game – has been bowling at over 145kph, Mohammed Shami is getting the new ball to move around, Rashid Khan has four bankable overs and Hardik Pandya is completing his quota. If these four have Royals on the mat early, then Titans’ Achilles heel – the fifth bowler, currently comprising of overs from Darshan Nalkande and Rahul Tewatia – can be protected. If the wickets don’t come, then those four overs could hurt Titans against a batting line-up like that of Royals.The Titans have another problem, an issue that might have been glossed over because of the hat-trick of wins to start their season, but runs are not coming from Matthew Wade and David Miller. Apart from scores of 1 and 6, Wade has a 29-ball 30 and a 19-ball 19. Miller has not been able to deliver the death-overs blows. That risks Titans becoming a one-trick pony, relying heavily on a big Shubman Gill score and hoping for solid contributions from Hardik, the young Sai Sudharsan and Tewatia. They have options – Wriddhiman Saha, Rahmanullah Gurbaz, Alzarri Joseph and Dominic Drakes among them – to replace both players, but will they, just yet?Likely XIsRajasthan Royals: 1 Jos Buttler, 2 Devdutt Padikkal, 3 Sanju Samson (capt, wk), 4 Rassie van der Dussen, 5 Shimron Hetmyer, 6 Riyan Parag, 7 R Ashwin, 8 Trent Boult, 9 Yuzvendra Chahal, 10 Prasidh Krishna, 11 Kuldeep SenGujarat Titans: 1 Shubman Gill, 2 Matthew Wade/Wriddhiman Saha (wk), 3 Sai Sudharsan, 4 Hardik Pandya (capt), 5 David Miller, 6 Abhinav Manohar, 7 Rahul Tewatia, 8 Rashid Khan, 9 Lockie Ferguson, 10 Mohammed Shami, 11 Darshan NalkandeWhat’s not to love? Yuzvendra Chahal has picked up wickets – two, three, even four – each time he has bowled this season•BCCI

Strategy punt Can Hardik trust Tewatia for four full overs and drop Nalkande to get some extra batting cushion in the middle order? Against Royals – and in partnership with Rashid – there’s a case for it. The Royals have the poorest average against legspinners in IPL 2022 – 25.5 runs/wicket – and Buttler, Hetmyer and Samson have all returned below average numbers against legspin. Chahal and Ashwin could time their spells with Hardik’s arrival to the crease. Hardik’s strike rate for Titans is not the same from his Mumbai Indians days, a factor of batting at No. 4 and being captain perhaps, but Ashwin and Chahal could capitalise on this. Currently, his strike rate is 104 against Chahal and 100 against Ashwin.Stats that matter The game is a battle between the highest six-hitters [Royals: 11.5 per match] and the fewest six-hitters [Titans: four per match] in IPL 2022. Not surprisingly, Buttler (15) and Hetmyer (14) are the top six-hitters of the competition. Royals have both the Orange Cap holder [Buttler] and Purple Cap holder [Chahal]. Samson has struggled against pace this season. His strike rate against pace is 109. Compare that to his spin strike rate of 236 and you know what to attack him with. Rashid is one strike away from becoming the fourth overseas player to 100 IPL wickets. Sunil Narine (147*), Lasith Malinga (170) and Dwayne Bravo (174*) have more.
