Aufatmen in der Premier League – und beim FC Bayern?
Viktor Gyökeres (27) ist der vielleicht umworbenste Top-Stürmer in Europa. Mit 39 Toren wurde der Knipser von Sporting Lissabon (Vertrag bis 2028/Marktwert 75 Mio. Euro) Torschützenkönig in Portugal.
Die Interessenten aus der Premier League stehen Schlange. Manchester United, der FC Arsenal oder der FC Chelsea wollen ihn unbedingt unter Vertrag nehmen. Sogar die Bayern haben mit dem Schweden geflirtet.
[–>Doch Klubs aus Saudi-Arabien wollten den europäischen Top-Klubs einen Strich durch die Rechnung machen. „L‘Equipe“ berichtet, dass Al-Hilal – neuer Trainer wird dort Simone Inzaghi (48) von Inter Mailand – ihm ein Jahresgehalt von über 35 Mio. Euro plus Prämien geboten hat. Doch Gyökeres lehnt ab.
Bayern-Flirt lehnt Mega-Gehalt aus Saudi-Arabien ab!
Somit hat speziell Manchester United noch Hoffnung auf eine Verpflichtung des Stürmers. Um ihm herum soll eine neue Mannschaft aufgebaut werden. Sein Ex-Trainer Ruben Amorim soll ihn ins Old Trafford locken und ihm das Projekt schmackhaft machen.
Gyökeres – die nächste Transfer-Pleite für die Saudi-Klubs!
Al-Hilal hatte als Alternative den Nigerianer Victor Osimhen (Neapel) im Visier. „Metro“ und „L‘Equipe“ berichten, dass man bereit war, eine Ablöse von fast 70 Mio. Euro für den Stürmer zu zahlen. Obwohl sein Vertrag bereits im nächsten Sommer ausläuft. In der vergangenen Saison schoss er Galatasaray Istanbul zum Meistertitel in der Türkei.
Spannend: Auch Osimhen hat keine Lust auf die Wüsten-Millionen, will lieber zu einem Top-Klub in Europa wechseln. Eine Zukunft in Neapel hat er nicht. Trainer Antonio Conte baut auf seinen Lieblingsstürmer Romelu Lukaku.
Gyökeres und Osimhen – sie alleine werden reichen, um die Gerüchteküche im Sommer zum Überkochen zu bringen. Die heißesten Stürmer-Aktien auf dem Transfermarkt.
Wie bitte?: Entlassener Italien-Trainer muss noch ein Spiel machen

Red Sox calling up Roman Anthony, MLB’s top prospect
<!--> The Boston Red Sox are calling up top prospect Roman Anthony two days after the 21-year-old outfielder hit a 497-foot grand slam for Triple-A Worcester.Anthony, considered one of Boston's "Big Three" prospects before the regular season along with rookies Kristian Campbell and Marcelo Mayer, will make his major league debut Monday night at home against Tampa Bay, batting fifth and playing right field, manager Alex Cora said. Wilyer Abreu was placed on the IL as the corresponding move, per multiple reports.A second-round pick in the 2022 amateur draft – one the Red Sox paid more like a first-round pick with a $2.5 million signing bonus – Anthony is batting .288 with 10 homers and 29 RBIs in 58 games this season.

Faeřané otočili duel s Gibraltarem, v kvalifikaci o MS zapsali první body
Gibraltar nastoupil k 50. zápasu v kvalifikacích mistrovství světa nebo Evropy a dlouho sahal po historicky prvním bodu. V 23. minutě ho poslal do vedení střelou zpoza vápna Scanlon, teprve osmnáctiletý záložník Manchesteru United. Faeřané srovnali v 71. minutě zásluhou Frederiksberga a obrat dokonal v 86. minutě Johannesen.Skupinu I suverénně vedou se čtyřmi výhrami Norové, kteří hráli na velkém turnaji naposledy na Euru 2000. V Estonsku jim stačil jediný gól kanonýra Haalanda. Hvězda Manchesteru City po hodině hry dostala míč do sítě po dorážce vlastní zblokované střely, která se odrazila od břevna. Haaland je se čtyřmi góly v čele tabulky střelců společně s českým útočníkem Schickem a Chorvatem Kramaričem.Italové se vítězně rozloučili s trenérem Spallettim, jehož konec na lavičce byl oznámen už před dnešním duelem s Moldavskem. Favorita poslal do vedení z dorážky Raspadori, krátce po pauze zvýšil Cambiaso. „Squadra azzurra“ po pátečním debaklu 0:3 v Norsku získala první body v kvalifikaci, Moldavsko je na nule.V zamotané skupině J je první Severní Makedonie, […]
Arsenal interested in signing Taylor Hinds upon expiration of Liverpool contract
Arsenal are interested in signing Liverpool full-back Taylor Hinds upon the expiration of her contract at the end of this month.Club sources, speaking on the condition of anonymity, said that Liverpool have presented Hinds with a strong contract offer.The 26-year-old Jamaica international was a product of Arsenal’s academy and made one appearance for the reigning European champions in 2017 during a 7-0 FA WSL Cup victory over the London Bees.AdvertisementHinds left Arsenal to join Everton in 2018, alongside Chloe Kelly, who is in talks over a new deal with Arsenal after her successful loan from Manchester City. She joined Merseyside rivals Liverpool in 2020.

Luciano Spalletti leads Italy to win in World Cup qualifying in final game as coach
<!--> With a parting gift for Luciano Spalletti, Italy beat Moldova 2-0 on Monday for its first points in the beleaguered national team’s attempt to reach the World Cup for the first time since 2014.-->Spalletti was informed ahead of the game in Reggio Emilia that he would be losing his job as Italy coach in the wake of the team’s 3-0 loss in Norway last week, which marked a dreadful way to begin its qualifying campaign for the 2026 World Cup.Goals by Giacomo Raspadiro and Andrea Cambiaso meant Spalletti at least departed with a victory. Yet the Azzurri remained in a perilous position in Group I, with Norway beating Estonia 1-0 — thanks to Erling Haaland's 62nd-minute goal — to make it four wins from four halfway through qualifying.ADVERTISEMENT <!-->Italy stayed nine points behind Norway — albeit having played two […]
Roman Anthony promoted to majors: What to know about baseball’s top prospect ahead of MLB debut with Red Sox
The Boston Red Sox are bringing baseball's best prospect to the majors. The Red Sox have promoted outfielder Roman Anthony just hours ahead of Monday night's game versus the Tampa Bay Rays. Anthony is in the lineup, batting fifth and playing right field, when Boston takes on Shane Baz. (In a corresponding move, Wilyer Abreu has landed on the injured list.)Anthony, 21, has spent the year pulverizing Triple-A pitching. He entered Monday batting .288/.423/.491 with 10 home runs and nearly as many walks (51) as strikeouts (56). As such, he's vindicated CBS Sports' decision to rank him as the No. 1 prospect entering the season. Here's what we wrote at the time:Anthony has a lot working in his favor. He won't celebrate his 21st birthday until the summer, yet he's already authored an impressive 35-game stretch in Triple-A, during which he recorded […]
