da realbet： Manchester United’s 2024/25 Premier League season kicked off on Friday night with a 1-0 victory over Fulham at Old Trafford. It was the curtain-raiser for the English top-flight campaign, with Old Trafford arguably the perfect venue to get another exciting season underway.

da brdice： A debut goal from new signing Joshua Zirkzee gave the Red Devils all three points against the Cottagers, with the Dutchman capping off a well-worked move to introduce himself to the United faithful in the perfect way. It wasn’t all plain sailing for Erik ten Hag’s side, who had to cope with dangerous Fulham counter-attacks, but they rode those waves well and came out with three points.

Unsurprisingly, given the fact Friday night’s affair was the first game of the season, both sides looked tired as the minutes ticked by. In particular, United made some substitutions in midfield to freshen things up in the middle of the park to help cope with Fulham in transition.

United lacked midfield options off the bench, with Scott McTominay making an appearance and Christian Eriksen an unused substitute. Youngster Toby Collyer was also on the bench but did not feature.

It is no secret the Red Devils are looking to strengthen in the centre of the park before deadline day on 30th August to add depth and more quality in midfield. They have recently been linked with one player who could prove to be an excellent option to do just that.

Man United target Bundesliga midfielder

The player in question here is Borussia Monchengladbach and France midfielder Manu Kone. The 23-year-old has impressed during recent seasons for the German outfit and could well leave the club this summer, with some clubs circling.

According to a recent report from Graeme Bailey, Kone is one of the names on an extensive midfield list for United as they look to add depth in the centre of the park. The midfielder has 'been discussed internally' by the United hierarchy.

However, they are not alone in their bid to acquire the 23-year-old’s services this summer, as Italian giants Juventus and Milan are also thought to be interested in the Frenchman. As confirmed by Fabrizio Romano, the Rossoneri are set to complete a deal for French midfielder Youssouf Fofana in the coming days, meaning United could have an edge over the seven-time Champions League winners.

In terms of a price for the midfielder, Bailey reports that a deal for the Monchengladbach midfielder could cost less than £30m to get over the line.

Why Kone would be a good signing

Kone was an important cog in the Monchengladbach system last season. He featured 22 times in the top flight, chipping in with one goal and two assists. However, the Frenchman did struggle with injuries at times and had two notable spells on the sidelines last campaign.

The 23-year-old could prove to be a brilliant alternative to Sander Berge, who has also been linked with United this summer. The Red Devils are believed to have pursued a deal for the Burnley and Norway midfielder in a deal that could cost them £30m.

Not only that but former Toulouse man Kone could be an exciting upgrade on United’s No 18, Casemiro. Despite a good showing against Fulham on Friday, the Brazilian struggled last campaign, to the point that Jamie Carragher suggested the vastly experienced midfielder 'needs to call it a day at this level and move' during the transfer window, although that is yet to happen, despite reports.

Should United end up moving Casemiro on, they will need to bring in a replacement, and Kone – who has been compared to Paul Pogba – could prove to be the better option ahead of Berge. The Frenchman is of a similar profile to the United midfielder. That is to say, he is a tough-tackling ball-winner and could be a more like-for-like replacement than if they signed Berge.

In fact, this is also backed up by the stats on analysis site FBref. On average, the 23-year-old midfielder completes 3.47 tackles and interceptions per 90 minutes. That is more than Berge, with the Burnley man averaging just 2.96, although Casemiro trumps them both, with an impressive 4.59 per 90.

When breaking that statistic down further, it is worth noting that the Gladbach man finishes far ahead of the other two on interceptions. He makes 0.87 interceptions per 90, with Casemiro ranking second at 0.82, and Berge last with just 0.69.

Interestingly, Kone wins more ball recoveries on average than Berge and Casemiro, showing his mobility and dynamism off the ball. The French midfielder makes an average of 6.42 each game, with the Burnley midfielder and United's Brazilian midfielder both averaging 6.05.

Stats from FBref

In terms of their in-possession quality, it is once again very close. Casemiro averages the most progressive passes with 5.09, while Berge comes in at a close second with 4.91. The Monchengladbach number 17 does rank last, although his numbers are not exactly poor, averaging 4.05 per game.

Kone also averages more completed take-ons per 90 than the duo. He boasts an impressive 65.4% success rate, completing 2.14 per game. Casemiro comes in second, completing 0.41 (50% completion) and Berge is third on the list, averaging 0.6 (48.8% completion).

Whilst Casemiro and Berge perhaps excel at some areas of the game more than Kone, the Monchengladbach midfielder brings balance between the two. In signing the Frenchman, United could bring in someone who possesses the best aspects of their current number 18 and former Sheffield United midfielder Berge. He could be a dream upgrade to Casemiro, by keeping a similar profile within the squad while having someone better at carrying the ball, and someone who can last the full 90 minutes more regularly.

Should United get this deal over the line for up to £30m, it could be a superb piece of business, bringing in an "exceptional" midfielder, as football scout Antonio Mango has described him in the past. It could well be money well spent on a well-rounded No 6 who could help revolutionise the United midfield as Ten Hag looks to challenge for further honours this season and push for a top-four finish.

“We are getting to play in New Zealand before World Cup which is also good,” she says

Edited PTI version01-Dec-2021

India Women are scheduled to play only one ODI series – against New Zealand – before the World Cup early next year but captain Mithali Raj feels the team has had “good preparation” so far in 2021.This year, India hosted South Africa for five ODIs before playing a three-match series in England and Australia each. They lost all three series but made Australia, the No. 1 team, work really hard for their 2-1 win and also ended their 26-match winning streak in the third ODI there.India will play World Cup hosts New Zealand for five ODIs before the World Cup in March-April.”We have played three best teams since March and it has given us good preparation,” Raj said after a partnership between KFC and Indian Deaf Cricket Association in Delhi on Wednesday. “Players have played domestic cricket and also in the Women’s Big Bash so they are getting game time which is the most important thing.”We are getting to play in New Zealand before World Cup which is also good.”India, who were unable to post 250-plus scores regularly earlier, did that twice in the Australia series and chased down 265 in the final ODI.”When you play against a strong team in its backyard you try to give your best,” Raj said. “Though we lost the series, the matches were very close. We scored 270 (274) and chased 270-odd, if we can do that consistently we will be among the best sides in world cricket.”India’s middle-order batting needs improvement but Raj said all departments must fire as a unit if they are to win the World Cup.”We bat as a unit so you can’t pinpoint one area,” she said. “There are times when the top order failed and the others performed. As a unit if we look to post a good total then it will help. If we focus on one area like middle order then it becomes too much of a burden for that particular slot.”India finished runners-up in the 2017 World Cup in England when not many expected them to but expectations will be higher this time.”There were not enough expectations back then,” Raj said. “Now in 2021, players have got experience and got a lot of exposure with the T20 leagues. Overall we have young players but they have got enough exposure. It is just of matter of gelling well as a team.”Every match will be different there. The quicker we read our opponents the better it will be for us.”

da lvbet： Nesta segunda-feira (28), o Internacional finalizou o relatório dos atos de vandalismo da torcida do Grêmio, no Beira-Rio. Antes de informarem o adiamento da partida, cadeiras, banheiros e outras partes do patrimônio foram alvo de torcedores gremistas.

De acordo com o jornalista Alexandre Ernst, do Vozes do Gigante, os valores são de aproximadamente R$ 40 mil. Atualmente, já existe um acordo entre as direções de que o dano será enviado para que a equipe rival faça o pagamento.

Ao todo, foram 29 cadeiras quebradas no setor de visitantes do Beira-Rio. Além disso, algumas acabaram sendo arremessadas para a parte inferior, onde torcedores do Internacional aguardavam para assistir a partida, diante o Grêmio.

Assim também, todos os banheiros destinados aos visitantes foram totalmente destruídos. Esse tipo de comportamento já estava previsto entre os clubes, acontecendo costumeiramente no Beira-Rio e na Arena.

da pixbet： It's going to be a big campaign for Tottenham Hotspur next season as they look to push on in the Premier League, put in a better showing in the FA Cup and qualify for the Champions League.

da fazobetai： In his first year with the Lilywhites, Ange Postecoglou showed that he has what it takes to lead a 'big six' club, although if he wants to achieve all of his goals in North London, he'll need Daniel Levy and Co to support him in the market.

Luckily, it appears that is happening, as the last couple of weeks have seen the club linked with several top-class centre-forwards, with Bournemouth's Dominic Solanke being a particularly strong link.

The Englishman didn't make it into Gareth Southgate's England squad for the Euros, but after an incredible season last year, you can't deny his goalscoring ability.

However, if he does make his way to N17 in the coming weeks, he'll need to hit the ground running to see his value surpass that of another left-footed superstar who just missed out on the Euros this summer.

The latest on Solanke to Spurs

Now, while the Lilywhites have been linked with plenty of other talented number nines in recent days, from Napoli's Victor Osimhen to LOSC Lille's Jonathan David, it does appear that Solanke is currently the one they are most likely to sign.

For example, a report from late last week claimed that the North Londoners were in talks with the Englishman's camp and were 'prepared to test Bournemouth and the player's resolve with a €50m offer', which converts to about £43m.

Another story from the start of this week claimed that the club was set to make an offer to the Cherries that involved one of their own players and a cash sum of £50m.

While there seems to be a consensus that an offer is in the works, the actual price of the former Chelsea prospect is still in the air, especially as other reports have claimed the South Coast club want as much as £60m.

Whatever the final fee Spurs have to pay ends up being, it'll likely be sizeable, and based on the 26-year-old's performances last season, that would be entirely reasonable.

For example, in 42 appearances, he found the back of the net on 21 occasions and provided four assists to boot, equating to an average of a goal involvement every 1.68 games.

However, he'll have to recreate those numbers or do even better in North London if he wants to see his future valuation surpass that of one of his potential new teammates.

James Maddison's valuation in 2024

Yes, the player in question is Tottenham co-vice captain James Maddison.

The former Leicester City star is valued at a whopping €75m by FotMob, which converts to about £65m.

Last season might not have been easy for the 27-year-old, with his exclusion from the England squad leaving him "devastated," but there is no denying his quality.

For example, in 30 appearances for the Lilywhites, he's scored four goals and provided nine assists, which equates to an impressive average of a goal involvement every 2.30 games.

Moreover, his underlying numbers are just as impressive.

FBref, which compares players in similar positions across Europe's top five leagues, places him in the top 1% of attacking midfielders and wingers for shot-creating actions and progressive passes, the top 2% for attempted passes, and the top 7% for assists, all per 90.

Ultimately, Solanke would be an excellent signing for Spurs this summer, and his combination with Maddison, who is justifiably valued so highly, could be the key to the club's future success.

عاد الحديث من جديد عن إمكانية انضمام مصطفى محمد إلى الأهلي بنهاية الموسم الحالي رغم عدم انتهاء عقده مع نانت إلا في يونيو 2027.

ويلعب مصطفى محمد مع نانت منذ عام 2022 بعد الانتقال إليه على سبيل الإعارة من جالطة سراي، قبل شراء النادي الفرنسي لعقده في يونيو 2023.

في الموسم الحالي كانت البداية سيئة بالنسبة لمهاجم منتخب مصر، خاصة وأن مدربه في نانت أنطوان كومباريه لم يكن يعتمد عليه إلا كبديل.

ولكن مع بداية عام 2025، أصبح وجود مصطفى محمد في المباريات وبصمته واضحة ووصل إلى 5 أهداف في 25 مباراة بإجمالي 962 دقيقة ببطولتي الدوري الفرنسي وكأس فرنسا.

ولكن خلال الساعات الماضية ظهرت بعض التقارير التي تفيد بأن الأهلي يريد ضم مصطفى محمد على سبيل الإعارة لمدة 18 شهر مقابل 1.5 مليون بداية من الصيف.

وتواصل بطولات مع مصدر داخل نادي نانت لمعرفة موقفهم من رحيل مصطفى محمد، وأكد أن رحيل اللاعب على سبيل الإعارة لا يجدي نفعًا.

خاصة إذا كانت الفترة موسم ونصف لأن اللاعب سيكون أمامه 6 أشهر فقط على نهاية عقده، وبالتالي، لن يكون نانت في موقف جيد إذا رغب في بيع مهاجم منتخب مصر.

في الوقت الحالي، مصطفى محمد ضمن خطط نانت في الموسم المقبل إلا إذا كانت هناك عروض جيدة لرحيله نهائيًا، أو ربما يكون الباب مفتوحًا نحو إعارة لمدة عام مع شرط أحقية الشراء.

CA had said they would be forced to cancel the game due to the Taliban’s stance on female sport

Cricket Australia will formally confirm this week that a one-off Test against Afghanistan is not going ahead, according to Cricket Tasmania.The match was scheduled to start in Hobart on November 27, providing captain Tim Paine a chance to finally play a Test at his home ground. The Taliban’s takeover of Afghanistan cast doubt on the Ashes tune-up.Cricket Australia (CA), rather than wait for the ICC to make a call on Afghanistan’s status, made it clear earlier this month that it was poised to axe the Test.”If recent media reports that women’s cricket will not be supported in Afghanistan are substantiated, Cricket Australia would have no alternative but to not host Afghanistan for the proposed Test,” CA said in a statement on September 9.Related

Cricket Tasmania (CT) chief executive Dominic Baker confirmed on Wednesday that the Test isn’t happening.”It will be formally postponed indefinitely this week,” Baker told radio station . “It’s not acceptable that they don’t allow female sport. If they want to play competitive male sport, particularly in the cricket sphere, they’re going to have to rethink what they do.”Baker added CA would likely offer some hope to Afghanistan by postponing rather than cancelling the Test altogether.”We’ll give you an opportunity to work on how female cricket becomes a part of your program,” he said.The one-off Test was set to take place in 2020 but postponed because of Covid-19.CA has already started looking at how best to rejig its schedule, while also negotiating with its counterpart in England regarding the Ashes. England and Australia could potentially play some warm-up games in Tasmania but CA doesn’t want to tinker with the five-Test series schedule any more than is needed.Paine has pitched for Hobart to host an Ashes Test, rather than Sydney. Perth is at great risk of missing out on its Ashes Test, because of Western Australia’s strict border rules, but CT would still need to do a lot of work to be part of the high-profile series ahead of other contenders.An independent arbitrator, asked to help settle a dispute between the Seven Network and CA, declared earlier this year that the sport’s free-to-air broadcaster should be given a $3 million discount if the Australia-Afghanistan Test does not take place.

Alongside these former Chelsea men, a few more players have been tipped for the exit door this summer. Trevoh Chalobah is now prepared to leave Chelsea after being omitted from their pre-season tour, a move which has drawn criticism from both pundits and supporters.

"The Chalobah situation is an absolute shambles," said Bart Barrett, a life-long Chelsea season ticket holder, to GOAL.

"He was probably our best defender in last 10-15 games last season – no coincidence our form improved massively with him in there instead of Disasi and [Benoit] Badiashile.

"It's a joke they have signed Tosin to replace Chalobah, who is a better player and has been at Chelsea since a kid. But the only way they look at it is Tosin was free and Chalobah will go for £30m – so profit for the same squad role. It just shows a complete lack of understanding of the club."

While treatment of the 24-year-old Cobham graduate has attracted criticism, another player who supporters won't want to see leave is midfielder Conor Gallagher. The England international, who is also a product of the Chelsea academy, has been linked with a high-profile exit which would prove deeply unpopular with the fanbase.

Atletico Madrid open talks to sign Conor Gallagher from Chelsea

He's entered the final 12 months of his contract, meaning the west Londoners are faced with the difficult decision of either selling this window or letting him go for free next year.

There has been no news in the way of renewed terms, and that is something which clubs are looking to take advantage of. According to TEAMtalk, Atletico Madrid have opened talks with Chelsea over signing Gallagher.

Diego Simeone's side are confident they'll win the race for his services and believe he really fits their mold. TEAMtalk also state that Gallagher is attracted by the possibility of joining up with the La Liga heavyweights, but it will be interesting to see if they're willing to go anywhere near Chelsea's £50 million valuation of the player.

Called a "very underrated" player by commentator Stephen Doyle, Gallagher's exit is a transfer which could be met with uproar.
