Following the appointment of Nuno Santo as Tottenham Hotspur’s next manager, an exciting transfer claim has been made…

What’s the word?

The 47-year-old was finally hired as Jose Mourinho’s successor after a long ten-week process and now, according to Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano, the North Londoners will turn their attentions to the transfer market.

He delivered the fresh claim to supporters on Twitter, where he wrote:

“Tottenham director [Fabio] Paratici now at work for Nuno. Levy still intentioned to keep Harry Kane.

“[Heung-min] Son expected to extend his contract soon.

“Talks ongoing with Bologna for [Takehiro] Tomiyasu offering €18m (add ons included).

“Spurs have also [Jules] Koundé and [Joachim] Andersen in their list.”

Full steam ahead

There are a few things to take away from this update but overall, it should not only leave fans buzzing but also Nuno too.

It’s no secret that Spurs’ defence was one of their biggest problems under Mourinho, particularly during the 2020/21 campaign. A combination of individual mistakes and a lack of cohesion in the backline meant the Lilywhites had one of the worst defensive records in the top eight.

The central partnership of Davinson Sanchez and Eric Dier was slammed as one of the worst in the Premier League, Sergio Reguilon’s form tailed off massively following injury, whilst Serge Aurier has been back to his calamitous ways, being dubbed a “liability” once again.

It was so bad that at one stage Mourinho utilised 16 different defensive combinations.

That’s why the links to new defenders are hugely encouraging as it means new sporting director Paratici has already noted the key areas of weakness and is looking to instantly rectify them to give Nuno the best chance of success.

In Tomiyasu, the Portuguese head coach would be getting a versatile option that can play through the middle and on the right, meaning whatever formation he opts to deploy, there will be a space for him.

Whilst Kounde and Andersen could be upgrades on the aforementioned duo of Sanchez and Dier, the latter is rather interesting considering the 25-year-old impressed during a loan spell at Fulham last term. He would need no time to settle in.

There is also encouraging news on both Son, who looks set to sign a new long-team deal, and his goalscoring partner Kane, who appears to be staying at the club despite requesting to be sold this window, leading to interest from Spurs’ top-flight rivals, as per Sky Sports.

The Portuguese boss would be dealt an instant blow if he were to lose their leading talisman.

Both of those updates gives Nuno a further boost and that should leave many thrilled ahead of the new season.

AND in other news, Nuno Santo can save Spurs millions by unleashing 20 y/o “machine” who is “Tottenham’s future”…

Yorkshire have crashed to a comprehensive defeat in the opening game of their defence of the Frizzell County Championship, as Surrey completed their second consecutive win. Despite a battling, unbeaten 52 from Chris Taylor which restored a little pride after the champions had been reduced to 80/7, Yorkshire were bowled out for 202 to give Surrey victory in three days by an innings and 168 runs.While Yorkshire floundered, their former captain was carrying Lancashire to victory at Edgbaston. The Red Rose county made short work of polishing off Warwickshire’s second innings for just 150, with Peter Martin taking 4-41. David Byas then stroked an unbeaten 83 as Lancashire made the required total of 197 to record a six-wicket win.At the Rose Bowl, Hampshire were forced to follow on after being dismissed for 273, 155 runs behind Leicestershire’s first-innings total. Phil DeFreitas accounted for James Hamblin, and Alan Mullally was run out for a duck to leave Chris Tremlett unbeaten on 26. In their second innings Hampshire have reached 81/2, still 74 runs behind.At Hove, James Kirtley finished with 5-90 as Somerset were bowled out for 401, taking a first-innings lead of 64. Skipper Chris Adams has anchored his side’s second innings, making an unbeaten 68 as Sussex closed on 178/3.At Lord’s, where play didn’t get under way until quarter past five, Notts moved from 90/1 to 156/4 in the 20 overs of play possible. Ashley Noffke took all four wickets, and Notts still need another 147 runs to make Middlesex bat again.Just 32 overs were possible at Northampton, where the overnight pair of Mike Hussey and Mal Loye completed a first-wicket partnership of 290 before Loye was dismissed for 139. Hussey was eventually out for 170 as Northants reached 380/2 in reply to Worcestershire’s 524.Rain prevented any play today in the other two Division Two games at Derby and Chelmsford.

Jogar o Dérbi não é uma novidade para Willian. Entre 2011 e 2012, o atacante estava no Corinthians, mas nesta quarta-feira pela primeira vez ele jogará o clássico pelo Palmeiras. Apesar de sua história no clube alvinegro, com direito a títulos do Brasileiro e da Libertadores, o camisa 29 avisa que irá “comemorar muito” se fizer gol em Itaquera.

– Claro (vai comemorar se fizer gol), e muito. Meu ganha pão vem do Palmeiras, minha família hoje é o Palmeiras. É o respeito sem menosprezar, sem provocar. Quem coloca o sustento na minha casa é o Palmeiras. Se tiver a oportunidade de fazer gol, vencer, tem de comemorar. Que este gol possa acontecer, mas o principal é a vitória. Que a gente possa mostrar um bom futebol na quarta – acrescentou.

Willian chega para o clássico empolgado com a boa atuação contra o Linense, no domingo. Além de marcar o seu primeiro gol pelo Verdão, o jogador deu uma assistência para Raphael Veiga marcar. Ele fará na quarta o seu sexto jogo pelo Verdão.

– Importante o gol, na minha função somos cobrados pelo gol. Fico feliz de ter participado, dado o passe e ajudado na vitória. O torcedor esperava um placar elástico, as coisas se encaixando. Ficamos felizes por as coisas terem acontecido, espero ter sido o primeiro de muitos – comemorou.

– No Dérbi a rivalidade é muito grande. Sempre dei importância ao respeito contra o adversário, temos de ter sempre. E dentro de campo nos impondo. É um momento importante para nossa equipe, mesmo sendo início de competição. A vitória contra o Linense nos dá confiança para quarta-feira fazer uma bela partida, todos mobilizados para produzir um bom futebol e vencer, que é o mais importante. Clássico é todo mundo ligado, se decide em detalhes, e vamos trabalhar para conseguir os três pontos – completou.

استقر البرتغالي جوسفالدو فيريرا المدير الفني لنادي الزمالك على بدلاء الفريق أمام المصري، في المباراة التي ستقام اليوم على ملعب الجيش ببرج العرب، في إطار منافسات الدوري المصري الممتاز.

ويتواجه الزمالك والمصري في ختام منافسات الجولة السادسة عشر من المسابقة المحلية.

ويخوض الزمالك مواجهة الليلة راغبًا في تعزيز مركزه ومواصلة الابتعاد عن الأهلي في جدول الترتيب، حيث يتربع على الصدارة بـ35 نقطة، بفارق 3 نقاط عن أقرب منافسيه.

ويدخل المصري المباراة طامعًا في تحسين موقفه في ترتيب الدوري، إذ يحل في المركز التاسع برصيد 19 نقطة. بدلاء الزمالك أمام المصري

ويتواجد على مقاعد البدلاء كل من: محمد عواد، وحسام عبد المجيد، وحازم إمام، وإسلام جابر، ومحمد أشرف “روقا”، وأيمن حفني، وسيد عبد الله نيمار، ومحمود عبد الرازق شيكابالا، وسيف الدين الجزيري.

جدير بالذكر أن المصري كان قد انتصر على الأهلي بهدف دون رد في آخر مبارياته بالدوري، في حين نجح الزمالك في الفوز على الاتحاد السكندري بهدفين نظيفين.

يرى المدرب المساعد السابق للفريق الأول لكرة القدم بالنادي الأهلي، كيفن جونسون، أن المدير الفني السابق لنادي الزمالك، باتريس كارتيرون، لن يفيد الأندية في جنوب إفريقيا إذا جاء إلى بلد الأولاد.

وارتبط اسم كارتيرون في الفترة الماضية بإمكانية تدريب كايزر تشيفز، حال رحيل مدربه ستيوارت باكستر، رغم تعاقد الفرنسي مع نادي الاتفاق بعد الرحيل عن الزمالك.

وعمل جونسون في الدوري المصري وواجه كارتيرون مع الأهلي في الموسم الماضي كمدرب مساعد لمواطنه، بيتسو موسيماني، قبل الرحيل في أغسطس 2021.

وعلق مدرب سوبر سبورت الأسبق عن تلك الأنباء خلال حواره مع برنامج “Monday Night Football”، وقال: “لا اعتقد أن باتريس كارتيرون سيكون مفيدًا للكرة في بلدنا”.

وتابع: “ليس لأنني لا أحبه، ولكننا لدينا منافسة قوية للغاية في الدوري الجنوب إفريقي، لا يحتاج كايزر تشيفز إلى مدرب مثله وإنما يحتاج إلى مدرب يعرف قيمة هذا النادي ورغبته في العودة والمنافسة بقوة على الألقاب”.

وأضاف في النهاية: “لدينا منافسة قوية بين أكثر من نادٍ في الدوري الجنوب إفريقي، بينما في الدوري المصري تقتصر المنافسة بين ناديين، وبالتالي، تكون المباريات أكثر صعوبة مما هو عليه الحال في مصر”.

On a beauty of a batting wicket, with a quick, indeed a lightning fast outfield to boot, at Karachi’s National Stadium, Shoaib Akhtar gave a fearsome display of pace bowling to demolish the Black Caps middle and late order to fashion Pakistan a big

Agha Akbar21-Apr-2002On a beauty of a batting wicket, with a quick, indeed a lightning fast outfield to boot, at Karachi’s National Stadium, Shoaib Akhtar gave a fearsome display of pace bowling to demolish the Black Caps middle and late order to fashion Pakistan a big win, by a whopping 153 runs, with 20 overs to spare.Akhtar’s scorching pace was the main difference. And once Younis and Akram got the initial breakthroughs, he cut through the Black Caps line-up much like a red hot knife through butter, in the process getting six wickets for a mere 16 runs – the best figures against the Kiwis, as well as at the National Stadium. He was quite justifiably named the Man of the Match.It was relentless aggression, and the spanking must have not just bruised the Black Caps in body and ego, but cut deep into the psyche as well. It was the kind of awe-inspiring defeat that sets the tone and tenor of a whole series.Pakistan itself was in a spot of some serious bother at 49 for three, but Yousuf Youhana scored a magnificent hundred and Younis Khan partnered him for a second successive stand of 150-plus to revive their fortunes. And they never looked back from there.Nathan Astle (25, off 27 deliveries, 2 fours, 2 sixes), inarguably the most accomplished of the Black Caps batsmen, tried to take the attack to Pakistan, though mostly through premeditated shots. He clouted Wasim Akram for a six over long-on and a couple of overs later gave the same treatment to Waqar Younis, sending him over the deep long-off fence. Pakistan was on the receiving end. But Younis winkled him out, his deviously slow off-cutter bowling him neck and crop, with middle and off-stump disturbed. From then on, it was like an avalanche, as wickets kept falling like ninepins after a rather bright and solid start of 53 runs in 9.5 overs.Akram got Lou Vincent plumb in front the next over, with a quick toe-crusher homing in on the middle stump. Stand-in skipper Craig McMillan in a terrible mix-up ran Mathew Horne out. In his first over, Shaoib Akhtar accounted for McMillan, trying to pull him over the midfield only succeeding in hitting a skier to Saqlain Mushtaq.From here on it was Akhtar all the way, well almost. Generating blistering pace, in the region of 155 kph, one of his deliveries only 0.6 mph short of his much cherished 100 mark, Shoaib took four more wickets, five in his first seven for just 10 runs. With Saqlain Mushtaq getting Chris Harris, who had hit Razzaq for a six and a four the previous over, caught at first slip, the Kiwis were in mire.At 105 for 9, it was all over bar the shouting although Daryl Tuffey and Ian Butler flailed around for a while. Akhtar, bowled Butler with a peach of a late outswinger ramming into his off-stump, to bring down the curtains on New Zealand.Youhana, Younis encore:
All poise, elegance and wristy strokeplay, Youhana (126, off 155 deliveries, 14 fours, 1 six) made his second successive century, one that again saved the day for Pakistan. And more importantly, he again had Younis (69, 81 balls, 2 fours, 1 six) playing the perfect foil at the other end. In an encore of the Sharjah Cup 2002 final, the two between them again made 150-plus, 161 to be exact. And that partnership led Pakistan, which at one point were in a hole at 49 for three, to a highly competitive total, especially with Razzaq (30, off 18 deliveries, 1 four, 2 sixes) getting into the act at the fag end to ensure a strong finish.Youhana walked in at 15 for one, in the third over, with Shahid Afridi holing out to McMillan at shortish long-off in an attempt to hit Tuffey straight out of the ground. He watched helplessly at the other end as Imran Nazir pulled one down the throat of deep backward square-leg to make it 15 for 2.The task of rebuilding was going to be tough even with Inzamam-ul-Haq around, but he too, after appearing to be in fine fettle, went 34 runs later, his pull ending straight into Butler at square leg.But Youhana and Younis, perhaps too familiar to be overawed by the task at hand, turned the tables on a mostly uni-dimensional Kiwi attack to resurrect Pakistan.The innings was disrupted for as long as 24 minutes owing to disturbance in a section of the crowd, at a critical point with both Youhana and Younis close to their individual hundred and fifty, at 91 and 47 respectively. But the two didn’t lose any of the concentration, and got past the milestones, this being Youhana’s sixth hundred and Younis’ seventh fifty, without much of a hassle, and kept on batting soundly after that as well.And by the time the two were gone, the Kiwis were already staring at a huge total. Razzaq’s late flurry only made it that wee bit tougher. Eventually, the Kiwis never even came near the target.The Black Caps were struggling with an outbreak of stomach problems to add to their injuries list after a visit to a Japanese eatery in Karachi, something they may not forget for a while. This, coupled with some missing senior players was also one of the reasons for this performance as even Tuffey was in discomfort all through the match but bravely carried on.The next game is in Rawalpindi and one can expect a far more resolute performance there in somewhat better weather too.

Former Leeds United midfielder David Norris has told Football FanCast in an exclusive interview that he has no concerns over his old side’s ability to attract players.

The Yorkshire club have missed out on long-term target Rodrigo De Paul, with journalist Fabrizio Romano reporting that the 27-year-old will join Atletico Madrid this summer after the La Liga champions agreed a €35m (£30m) deal with Udinese.

Brighton’s Ben White, who spent the 2019/20 season on loan at Elland Road and was the subject of three bids from Leeds last summer, is also another player who looks to have got away.

The Whites are said to be interested in White, but The Athletic claims that the central defender is close to signing for Arsenal.

Such developments are not a concern for Norris, though, who has confidence in his former club to attract players.

“I think it’s a massive club,” the ex-Leeds star exclusively told FFC. “Outside that top five or six, will definitely be in that next group of clubs for attracting the top players, so I don’t think that’ll be a problem now.”

Wolves’ Adama Traore is another player Leeds are thought to be targeting, though that does not look like it will be an easy deal to complete either, with Eurosport hinting at his price tag potentially being a problem.
