It’s fair to say tonight’s Championship contest between Leeds United and Sheffield United is a hotly anticipated one, as the second tier’s top two do battle at Bramall Lane.

The Blades could well topple the Whites off their perch at the top of the division with a special win, with South Yorkshire also winning itself bragging rights in the process.

Of course, Chris Wilder’s men might find Leeds too difficult of a team to break down, on the contrary, with Daniel Farke and Co potentially five points clear at the summit come full-time.

It will be a fascinating match to take in, with the 57-year-old left with many a selection dilemma too ahead of Leeds’ visit as various injured personnel could be back fit and ready to go.

Sheffield United's selection dilemmas

One face that could be back in contention for this second-tier humdinger is Tom Cannon with the nine-goal striker in the Championship this season nowhere to be seen last time out versus Luton Town owing to injury.

Now, however, he could be fast-tracked back into the first team fold to try and catch a staunch Leeds defence cold, with the ex-Stoke City loanee yet to get off the mark in his new surroundings after a potent stint at the Potters.

It would be quite the dramatic stage for Cannon to start to recapture his Stoke best, with Wilder also potentially boosted by experienced head Kieffer Moore being back fit as another body he can call upon up top.

Amazingly, the Welshman has never scored against Leeds from nine career contests, but unwanted records like that are made to be broken, with the ex-Cardiff City man on five strikes for the season when fit.

But, away from the two named strikers, there is another figure who could make a timely return from the treatment room that would really hurt Leeds, having previously been on their radar as a transfer target.

The Sheffield United star who could really hurt Leeds

Leeds have definitely kept a keen eye on proceedings at Bramall Lane in recent years when it comes to their incoming transfer business, with Jayden Bogle poached from South Yorkshire last summer to defect over to Elland Road.

In the same window, Farke and Co were allegedly interested in snapping up second-tier star Gustavo Hamer, but no such deal came to be, leaving the high-flying Blades with a top talent for the level.

The table-toppers eventually landed Manor Solomon’s signature, who has taken to life in the Championship swimmingly with seven strikes and seven assists in league action, but Hamer feels as if he would’ve been a sterling buy long-term for the Whites especially if promotion is reached.

Indeed, the 27-year-old managed to tally up an impressive four goals and six assists across 36 Premier League appearances last season for Wilder’s men – even as a rock-bottom finish was confirmed in the top-flight – on top of the fact he is only two goal contributions off Solomon in the here and now.

Amazingly, his seven goals and five assists would place him among Leeds’ top five performers if he had entered the building, with Farke’s men even more of a terrifying prospect potentially if Hamer was thrown into the side down the left or as an attack-oriented body centrally.

Hamer could have the last laugh later on, however, if he is fit enough to start, as the “beautiful” Blades ace – as he’s been heralded in the past by football journalist Josh Bunting – goes about delivering a reality check to the league leaders

علّق ريكو لويس لاعب مانشستر سيتي على بطولة كأس العالم للأندية التي يشارك فيها الفريق بالولايات المتحدة الأمريكية، وأشاد بصفقة النادي الجديدة.

وتلعب أولى مباريات مونديال الأندية في الثالثة فجر الأحد بتوقيت مصر، حيث يلاقي الأهلي المصري خصمه إنتر ميامي الأمريكي.

وصرح لويس للاتحاد الدولي لكرة القدم (فيفا): “أعتقد أنه يجب علينا استغلال كأس العالم للأندية كفرصة لنكون جزءًا من التاريخ”.

وأضاف: “نعرف طبيعة الحياة في أمريكا مع الجماهير ومدى حماسهم واستمتاعهم بمشاهدتنا”.

ويعترف لويس بأن الحرارة والرطوبة ستجعلان اللعب على أرض الملعب “صعبًا للغاية”، لكنه لا يخشى من تأثير هذه الظروف على أسلوب لعب مانشستر الذي يعتمد على الضغط العالي. 

وعزز مانشستر سيتي صفوفه بضم ريان آيت نوري، من ولفرهامبتون، وريان شرقي من ليون، ولاعب الوسط الهولندي تيجاني ريندرز من ميلان.

اقرأ أيضًا | جوندوجان: نلعب للفوز بـ كأس العالم للأندية.. وفرطنا في لقبين

وأفاد لويس: “تيجاني ريندرز كنت أتابعه العام الماضي، وتحدثت مع زملائي عنه، كان أحد لاعبيّ المفضلين في يورو 2024 من حيث لاعبي خط الوسط”.

وأكد: “إنه بارعٌ جدًا في تطوير مهاراته، إنه لاعب خط وسط مانشستر سيتي النموذجي، حيث يحتفظون بالكرة ولا يفقدونها أبدًا، ويمكنك أن ترى أنه يمتلك القدرة على تسجيل الأهداف ولعب تمريرات حاسمة أيضًا، لذا، أعتقد أنه لاعب خط وسط متكامل سيرفع مستوى أدائنا”.

وسيفتتح مانشستر سيتي مشواره بمواجهة الوداد البيضاوي، ثم يلاقي العين الإماراتي، ثم يوفنتوس الإيطالي.

Looking to boost their attacking options even further, Aston Villa have now reportedly made their first move to sign an attacking midfielder who’s had a hand in 23 goals so far this season.

Aston Villa transfer news

The Villans were as bold as ever during the January transfer window, selling Jhon Duran for a reported £65m before welcoming Marco Asensio and Marcus Rashford on loan from Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester United. That bravery has been to no avail in the Premier League, however, with Unai Emery’s side taking one step forward and two steps back in recent weeks, culminating in a 10th place position.

Aston Villa are on course to reach the Champions League quarter-finals, but would they be even stronger had they not sold their “next big thing”?

Posts 1 ByBen Gray Mar 6, 2025

In the Champions League, meanwhile, the Midlands club have enjoyed opposite fortunes. Defeating Club Brugge 3-1 last time out, Aston Villa are now just one second leg win away from a Champions League quarter-final in what would be a sensational achievement.

Despite sitting 10th in the Premier League, the Villans have certainly remained ambitious in their pursuit of reinforcements too. According to Efotbal.cz, as relayed by Sports Witness, Aston Villa have now made their first enquiry over signing Pavel Sulc from Viktoria Plzen this summer, but face competition from Manchester City and Leeds United.

Such interest in the attacking midfielder should come as little surprise. Sulc has enjoyed another excellent campaign in the Czech Republic, scoring 12 goals and assisting a further 11, including one in a 2-1 defeat against Manchester United in the Europa League.

If ever a player was ready for a big move, it is the 24-year-old at the peak of his powers.

"Incredible" Sulc would add depth of quality

Whilst Aston Villa’s attack is currently filled to the brim with quality, it remains to be seen whether they’ll be in a position to welcome both Rashford and Asensio on a permanent basis following their loan moves this summer. And that could leave room for the likes of Sulc to arrive. A younger option than the duo who are 27 and 29 years old respectively, the attacking midfielder would prove to be a worthwhile investment.

Earning plenty of praise in the last year or so, including from Jacek Kulig. The football talent scout described the 24-year-old’s 23/24 campaign as “incredible” and has since watched on as he’s enjoyed another excellent season almost a year on.

When the summer arrives, Sulc looks destined to finally get his big move. Whether that means a trip to Villa Park is pending remains to be seen, however.

O trio Ramiro, Mateus Vital e Léo Natel treinou nas dependências do Corinthians neste sábado (9).Os atletas estavam emprestados a outros clubes de fora do Brasil e não tiveram a compra exercida. Eles estão de volta após um período de férias no mês passado.

Ramiro estava no Al-Wasl desde agosto de 2021. Na equipe dos Emirados Árabes, o atleta marcou dois gols, um deles na estreia, e deu seis assistências em 34 partidas.

Com o meia, a equipe árabe ficou somente na sexta colocação no campeonato nacional, foi vice-campeã da Taça da Liga dos Emirados Árabes e chegou até a semifinal da Copa do Presidente, competição continental.

+ Confira a tabela do Brasileirão e simule os próximos jogos

O Al-Wasl não exerceu a opção de compra de 4 milhões de dólares (R$ 21 mi, na cotação atual).

Já Vital fez 40 partidas pelo Panathinaikos, da Grécia, mas 16, menos da metade, como titular. Para piorar, a maioria das vezes que começou jogando foi em partidas no início da passagem dele pelo clube grego. No fim da passagem, Mateus acumulou jogos em que atuava menos de 30 minutos, além de situações em que não saiu do banco de reservas.

No total, o meia-atacante marcou três gols e deu uma assistência no período. Sendo que dois desses tentos foram marcados na mesma partida, uma vitória por 4 a 0 sobre o Anagennisi Karditsa, pelas quartas de final da Taça da Liga da Grécia.

Com Mateus Vital, o clube foi campeão da Taça da Liga, mas ficou somente na quarta colocação do Campeonato Grego. Ainda assim, time europeu não exerceu a opção de compra de 4 milhões de euros (R$ 21,4 mi, na cotação atual) por 50% dos direitos econômicos pelo atleta.

Já Léo Natel foi o que mais esteve perto de ser adquirido. O jogador foi emprestado ao Apoel, do Chipre, onde passou pela segunda vez – a primeira, também por empréstimo, havia sido entre 2018 e 2019, quando o atacante ainda pertencia ao São Paulo.

Querido na equipe, o atleta marcou seis gols em 29 jogos, mas não ficou no time cipriota por dois motivos: a queda do euro e a temporada ruim do Apoel, que ficou somente na terceira colocação do campeonato nacional e foi eliminado nas quartas de final na copa local.

A opção de compra do atacante era de 2,5 milhões de euros (R$ 13,3 mi, na cotação atual) por 50% dos direitos. Na negociação pela compra, o Timão sinalizou que aceitaria até 1,5 milhão de euros (R$ 8 mi, na cotação atual) pelo jogador. Mas, por fim, a equipe do Chipre não exerceu a compra.

Os três jogadores serão avaliados pela comissão técnica do treinador Vítor Pereira nos próximos dias, para saber se podem agregar o elenco do Timão no restante da temporada.

Enquanto isso, o departamento de futebol corintiano seguirá aberto para escutar possíveis interessados no trio de jogadores.

Ireland were five runs behind the DLS par score when rain forced an early end to the game

Srinidhi Ramanujam20-Feb-2023

India advanced to the semi-final of the Women’s T20 World Cup with a five-run win over Ireland in their final group game, which was affected by rain in Gqeberha. India opener Smriti Mandhana’s 87 guided them to 155 for 6 after Harmanpreet Kaur opted to bat.The match was abandoned due to rain after it was halted at 8.2 overs when Ireland were 54 for 2, five runs behind the DLS par-score of 59. Ireland, thereby, have ended their T20 World Cup campaign with four defeats in as many matches while India, with three victories from four matches, have qualified for the knockouts along with England.Unless England lose to Pakistan in their final league game, India will play Australia in the first semi-final.Mandhana notches career-best T20I scoreMandhana notched up her best T20I score of 87 in windy conditions, albeit with several missed chances. Along with Shafali Verma, she stitched a 62-run partnership for the opening wicket, but it was not in the smoothest manner. Both Mandhana and Shafali looked to go big in the initial overs, with the latter particularly struggling to middle the ball. Shafali’s stay was cut short by Ireland captain Laura Delany when she was caught at deep square leg for a 29-ball 24.Harmanpreet, who came in at No.3 instead of Jemimah Rodrigues, couldn’t shift gears in testing conditions and eventually fell for 13 off 20 balls when she tried to go against the wind over deep midwicket. Orla Prendergast, the fielder, took an excellent catch to bring Ireland into the game.Mandhana, on the other hand, despite having a scratchy start to her innings – in which she was dropped on 29, 31, 46 and 70 – changed her approach after racing to her 22nd T20I fifty from 40 balls. Getting the timing right while looking to clear the boundary by hitting with the wind worked as she smashed four fours and two sixes in 16 balls after the half-century.Laura Delany celebrates with her teammates after dismissing Shafali Verma•ICC via Getty Images

From 63 for 1 after ten overs, India put on 92 runs in the final ten, with 50 of those runs coming in the last five overs. However, Ireland fought back at the death with five wickets, including two two-wicket overs each from Prendergast and Delany. Like Mandhana, they also tweaked their approach, with change of pace and lengths to exert pressure.Rodrigues, at three-down, chipped in with a quickfire 19 to lift the team to the highest total at St George’s Park for a women’s international game.For Ireland, Delany was their best bowler in terms of wickets, with three scalps for 33 and Prendergast finished with figures of 2 for 22. Wind, rain and an Ireland chase Throughout the game, players were tested on their ability to play with and against the wind before the rain took over. Ireland, chasing 156, were under pressure straightaway after losing two wickets in the first over of the innings. The first delivery saw Amy Hunter being run-out when she hesitated to take the second run and Rodrigues, the cover fielder, fired in a throw at the striker’s end to effect an easy dismissal. Four balls later, Renuka Singh bowled Prendergast, Ireland’s top scorer in their previous match against West Indies, out for duck.However, the two early wickets did not derail Gaby Lewis and Delany as the duo started finding boundaries against both pace and spin. Lewis remained unbeaten on 32 off 25 before the rain halted the game.

Preparing for their first summer on Merseyside, The Friedkin Group are now reportedly eyeing a move to sign a Serie A defender for Everton when the transfer window swings open.

Everton want Serie A defender

On course to achieve Premier League safety, it should come as no surprise that Everton are already setting their sights on summer targets. Names such as Tammy Abraham and Emanuel Emegha have already stolen the headlines in recent weeks, with the Toffees seemingly planning to sign an attacking upgrade in the coming months.

A player who knows all about English football versus a rising star, Everton certainly have quite the choice to make if they are to look towards Abraham or Emegha to replace Dominic Calvert-Lewin this summer.

Friedkin are wasting no time…

Posts ByTom Cunningham Mar 19, 2025

The academy graduate is yet to sign a new contract and, as things stand, will become a free agent at the end of the season – leaving David Moyes scrambling for options. His likely departure is set to hand Friedkin their first transfer test and one they’ll be desperate to pass with flying colours.

That said, the new owners are also reportedly looking towards defensive additions. According to TuttoJuve’s Mirko di Natale, Everton are now eyeing a move to sign Federico Gatti from Juventus this summer and could yet beat Newcastle to the Italian’s signature.

At 26 years old, the defender is at the peak of his powers and may well have a major decision to make regarding his future this summer. With three more years left on his current Juventus deal, though, a deal to sign Gatti is unlikely to come cheap for the likes of Everton in the coming months.

A player with experience among Europe’s elite in the Champions League, signing Gatti would certainly be an impressive way for Friedkin to commence their first summer in charge at Everton.

"Hero" Gatti is stronger than Branthwaite

If Everton are looking to add quality in depth ahead of next season, then signing Gatti to complete their backline would undoubtedly do just that. The 26-year-old would push Jarrad Branthwaite and James Tarkowski all the way in pursuit of a starting place after another impressive campaign at Serie A giants Juventus.

It’s during the current campaign that the defender has often displayed his strength, winning more aerial duels, more tackles and making more blocks than Branthwaite.

Dubbed a “hero” by football talent scout Jacek Kulig last season, Everton would be sealing one of the coups of the summer by signing Gatti ahead of Newcastle.

He ticks several boxes for what Moyes needs to take his side away from relegation battles and onto more ambitious things. Gatti is at his peak with Champions League experience and more than enough talent to compete against Branthwaite alongside others for a place.

When the summer arrives, Friedkin could make a statement of intent by signing the Juventus centre-back.

O Athletico-PR e o São Paulo se enfrentam neste domingo (31), às 16h, pela 20ª rodada do Campeonato Brasileiro. A partida acontecerá na Arena da Baixada, em Curitiba. O Furacão tenta se aproximar mais ainda dos primeiros colocados, enquanto o Tricolor busca se livrar da sequência de empates que acompanha o time na competição.

Com o apoio da torcida, Felipão deve optar por uma escalação mais alternativa do lado do Athletico-PR. Tudo isso porque a equipe se prepara para enfrentar oEstudiantes, pelo jogo de ida das quartas de final da Copa Libertadores. A partida válida pelo continental acontece na quinta-feira (4). O técnico do Furacão afirmou que iria por este caminho em falas recentes.

-Eu vou pensar muito no Estudiantes. São Paulo é Brasileiro e já temos 31 pontos, uma situação de respirar bem. Mas eu tenho que pensar que eu já coloquei Fernandinho, há pouco tempo no grupo, e Thiago Heleno, que não vinham jogando, em dois jogos seguidos. Esses dois podem pegar a malinha deles e ficar em casa dormindo. Tem cartão do Terans. E tem mais dois ou três, no mínimo, que vem jogando há uns 15 jogos seguidos. Então vou ter que pensar dessa forma – disse Felipão.

Mesmo que o São Paulo enfrente um cenário parecido, por conta do calendário, o Brasileirão acaba tendo um outro valor. A equipe de Rogério Ceni, até o momento, ocupa a décima colocação, com 26 pontos somados. Porém, como dito antes, vem de uma sequência de quatro empates na competição. Nesta temporada, em todas as rodadas até agora, somou cinco vitórias, três derrotas e onze empates – número que chama atenção.

Ceni também poderá contar com três novidades no Brasileiro: Giuliano Galoppo, Marcos Guilherme e o goleiro Felipe Alves estão disponíveis para atuar.

Em 65 encontros das equipes, o Tricolor paulista somou 23 vitórias contra 20 do Athletico-PR – sendo o mais recente na primeira rodada do Brasileiro, com a vitória de 4 a 0 para o São Paulo.

Aman Khan rescued them with the bat before Ishant Sharma sealed victory with a nerveless final over

Sreshth Shah02-May-20232:53

How Ishant used his experience to trump Tewatia

In a game with twists of epic proportions, tenth-placed Delhi Capitals trumped table-toppers Gujarat Titans in Ahmedabad, winning by five runs in dramatic fashion.The game’s pendulum swung numerous times, starting with Mohammed Shami picking up four wickets inside the powerplay to reduce Capitals to 23 for 5. But Aman Hakim Khan’s maiden T20 fifty and contributions from Axar Patel and Ripal Patel dragged the Capitals to 130 for 8.Capitals then took the upper hand when Khaleel Ahmed, Ishant Sharma and Kuldeep Yadav left the Titans on the mat at 32 for 4. Even though Hardik Pandya steadied the chase with a half-century, the momentum was with Capitals going into the final two overs.Just when the game seemed lost, Rahul Tewatia hit a hat-trick of sixes off Anrich Nortje in the 19th over to bring Titans to within touching distance of victory. But Ishant held his nerve in the final over and conceded just six against Hardik, Tewatia and Rashid Khan to seal the deal for Capitals.Ishant Sharma kept a rampant Rahul Tewatia at bay in a sensational final over•Associated Press

Tewatia sets up thrilling finish
When Titans needed 42 off the last four overs, the game could have gone either way. But quiet overs from Kuldeep and Khaleel to end their respective spells made the equation 33 off the last two overs.When Nortje began the 19th over with three pinpoint yorkers, the game was in the Capitals’ grasp, only for Tewatia to bring the home crowd alive once again with three successive leg-side sixes. When Ishant ran in to bowl the 20th, the momentum was with the Titans, but Hardik and Tewatia couldn’t find the early boundary in the over. Ishant then had Tewatia caught at cover, and when Rashid Khan needed a six off the final ball to force a Super Over, he conceded just a single to finish with figures of 2 for 23.Capitals’ Indian players stand up
Warner, who was run out, Phil Salt and Rilee Rossouw all failed with the bat, and were the first three men gone after Capitals opted to bat at the toss. When Shami also sent Manish Pandey and Priyam Garg packing, there was a chance Capitals would fold for a sub-100 score.But Aman and Axar put on 50 off 54 balls for the sixth wicket to resurrect the innings. The pitch was not hugely difficult but the early jolts forced the pair onto the defensive. As their partnership grew, their scoring rate increased but Capitals suffered another setback when Axar fell at the end of the 14th over, miscuing Mohit Sharma to the deep. Aman, though, took charge after Axar’s dismissal and got to his half-century. He combined with Ripal to help Capitals take 41 runs from overs 16 to 18, a passage of play that allowed them to set Titans 131 to win.Aman Khan scored 51 off 44 balls•Associated Press

Then, it was Khaleel, Kuldeep, Axar and Ishant who hurt Titans in the chase. Khaleel bowled a first-over maiden that included the wicket of Wriddhiman Saha. Returning to the team after a long hamstring-injury break, Khaleel beat Saha’s edge three times off his first three deliveries and then found the edge to the keeper off the last ball of the over.Two overs later, Shubman Gill was out to Nortje, finding cover with a drive, but the body blows came when Ishant rattled Vijay Shankar’s stumps with a knuckleball and Kuldeep disturbed David Miller’s poles. That had the Titans reeling at 32 for 4, almost as bad a situation as Capitals’ 23 for 5.Hardik and Abhinav Manohar battled away, putting on a 62-run fifth-wicket partnership, but they consumed 63 balls, allowing the required rate to climb steadily. Axar conceded just 24 in four wicketless overs, while Kuldeep finished with a frugal 1 for 15, including a five-run 17th over. Khaleel and Ishant then bowled terrific overs either side of Nortje’s expensive 19th to make it a day to celebrate for Capitals.Mohammed Shami picked up four wickets inside the powerplay•Associated Press

Shami’s super spell
Shami’s first-ball wicket was a lucky one, a slot delivery hit straight to cover by Salt, but it was all skill after that. He delivered four overs straight after taking the new ball and finished with figures of 4 for 11, with 19 dots in 24 balls. He operated on a good length and had Rossouw edging a delivery angling across to Saha in his second over.In his third over, he stayed on a similar length with a more prominent upright seam to right-handers Pandey and Garg, and both batters were caught behind fishing at deliveries outside off. Shami, who took the Player of the Match award, extended his lead at the top of the IPL 2023 list for most powerplay wickets. Sandwiched between Shami’s first two wickets was Warner’s dismissal, run out at the non-striker’s end after a mix-up with Garg.Once Shami’s spell was done, the pitch didn’t turn much for Noor Ahmad or Rashid Khan. Mohit and Josh Little did not find much grip with their cutters either. The two seamers eventually finished with relatively expensive figures as they failed to control the flow of runs at the death. Capitals scored 52 in their last five overs, propelled by Ripal’s unbeaten 13-ball 23 and Aman’s 44-ball 51, which proved to be the difference in the end.
