Pakistan’s Ahmed Shehzad will play for Jamaica Tallawahs•AFP

Ben Rohrer, Ahmed Shehzad and Davy Jacobs have been drafted in to the Caribbean Premier League as replacements for Steve Smith, Shaun Marsh and Aaron Finch, after the Australian trio was unable to get no-objection certificates from Cricket Australia.Rohrer will replace his countryman Smith for Antigua Hawksbills, Pakistan opener Shehzad will step in for Marsh for Jamaica Tallawahs, and South African wicketkeeper Jacobs will be coming in for Finch for Trinidad & Tobago Red Steel.Rohrer, who scored 295 runs at a strike-rate of 152.09 in the 2012-13 edition of the Big Bash League, said that he was relishing the prospect of working with Hawksbills coach Viv Richards and Ricky Ponting, who is part of the squad.Shehzad was part of the Pakistan squad that won the 2009 World Twenty20 and reached the semi-finals of the 2011 World Cup. He has scored two domestic T20 centuries and has a strike-rate of 134.23.”Losing Shaun is a shame but we have got a like-for-like replacement with Ahmed Shehzad who is perfect for the team’s balance,” Paul Nixon, the Tallawahs coach, said. Nixon also praised Shehzad’s “special ability” as a top-order batsman.”Chris (Gayle) knows him well and we believe that he will be a match-winner who can really make his mark on the world stage. He is a very gifted and classy player and we feel he is the last piece in our jigsaw.”Jacobs, like Shehzad and Rohrer, initially missed out on a spot with one of the six franchises in the draft in June. He captained South African franchise Warriors to their first ever Twenty20 title in 2010-11.”Davy Jacobs is a proven performer in Twenty20 cricket,” Gordon Greenidge, coach of the Red Steel, said. “The fact he can bat anywhere in the top order is great as it provides us with real flexibility and I like the balance of our squad.”He will add steel to the Red Steel dressing room and bring a winning mentality and vast experience to the squad.”The inaugural Caribbean Premier League starts on July 30 in Barbados and concludes on August 24 in Trinidad.

Botafogo discute judicialmente dívida referente a Henrique Almeida com São Paulo para contratar Diego Souza

MatériaMais Notícias

O Botafogo ainda busca um acerto com o atacante Diego Souza. Entre o clube e o atleta, os valores em relação a salários estão praticamente certos, mas a negociação não avança por conta do São Paulo, que cobra, de acordo com a apuração do LANCE!,em torno de R$ 3 milhões por conta de uma dívida referente a Henrique Almeida, revelado no Tricolor e contratado pelo Glorioso em 2014. O Glorioso não reconhece essa dívida e discute os valores na justiça.

A negociação foi feita pelo então presidente Maurício Assumpção. Carlos Eduardo Pereira, que assumiu o posto em 2015, assumiu a dívida da antiga gestão e, desde então, busca parcelar essa quantia com o São Paulo, que nunca aceitou, pedindo o pagamento da mesma de forma integral, algo que o Botafogo não pode oferecer, por conta das dificuldades financeiras.

Com Nelson Mufarrej, sucessor de Carlos Eduardo Pereira na presidência do clube, a coisa não é diferente. O mandatário também procurou o São Paulo com o objetivo de buscar uma forma de parcelar essa dívida, apesar das partes não concordarem integralmente com os valores. A equipe do Morumbi, por sua vez, permanece irredutível e só vai liberar o jogador mediante o pagamento do valor referente a Henrique Almeida.

Como a negociação foi sacramentada na gestão de Assumpção, o grupo “Mais Botafogo”, formado por Carlos Eduardo Pereira e Nelson Mufarrej, não reconhece o valor pedido pelo São Paulo e discute judicialmente sobre as cifras. Na opinião da diretoria do Alvinegro, trata-se de um ‘questionamento muito amplo, um processo complexo’.

Apesar das divergências, o que separa Diego Souza do Botafogo é realmente o valor dessa multa da transferência de Henrique Almeida. O Tricolor não abre mão de receber o valor e só liberará o atacante que o Alvinegro quitar a dívida.

Além do Botafogo, outro clube que monitora Diego Souza é o Sport. O Rubro-Negro busca repatriar o atacante e, assim como o Glorioso, ainda não desistiu do negócio referente ao jogador do São Paulo.

Australia restored or England refreshed?

ESPNcricinfo previews the third Investec Ashes Test at Durham

Big Picture At Old Trafford England remained unbeaten for the 11th consecutive Test, while Australia failed to win for the seventh match in a row. The result also ensured the Ashes would remain in English possession, yet the evidence of the eyes tended to conflict with that conveyed by the scoreboard and the record book. Australia appeared to have turned a significant corner, putting near enough to five days of staunch cricket together for the first time in recent memory, and England looked more than a little exhausted by their earlier efforts in the series. At the same time their batsmen showed increasing signs of frailty in the face of the tourists’ admirable pace attack, a reliance on Ian Bell and Kevin Pietersen to extricate the top three from bother growing more apparent with each match.So with the series moving to a venue less familiar to both sides, though the pitch is again straw-coloured, the question is how much the trends of Manchester will have an impact on proceedings at Durham. England were by far the better of the two sides in coping with the quick onset of another match so soon after the Nottingham epic, and this time also have the added relief of not having to worry about retaining the urn anymore. They should thus be capable of playing with a little more freedom of expression, not least the young opener Joe Root, who looked near enough to paralysed during two soporific innings in Lancashire. The unrelenting seam-up stylings of Graham Onions appear a likely reinforcement for the hosts’ bowling attack, which lacked a certain pep last week.For Australia, the gains of the third Test will mean little if they are not followed up with a pair of equally compelling displays in the final two matches. Given how inconsistent the side has been throughout Michael Clarke’s captaincy, bottoming out with a horrid display in India, the habits of successful teams need to be re-established with a strong sequence of performances. The team’s belief in their bowling attack is considerable, but the batsmen now need to show that they can maintain the standards set by Clarke, Chris Rogers, Steven Smith and Brad Haddin. It cannot be forgotten that the next campaign for the Ashes is but three months away.Form guideEngland: DWWWW
Australia: DLLLL
Players to watchJonathan Trott has been on something of a charm offensive this summer, appearing in plenty of interviews and doing his best to sound like the world’s most fascinating individual. However somewhere along the way his ability to bat boring seems to have been lost. Near enough to impassable during the previous Ashes series in Australia, he failed to capitalise on some free-scoring form at Trent Bridge, albeit partly due to an incorrectly given lbw decision in the second innings. From there his form has ebbed away, and at Old Trafford he looked lost, stumbling across his stumps in the manner of sundry English batsmen in 1989. Within the team, Trott is admired for his consistency and even temper. Perhaps he needs to remember that being dull is an asset, not a weakness.Plenty of observers were surprised by the vim with which Chris Rogers batted in Manchester, but not those who had seen him play precisely those kinds of innings for Middlesex and Victoria. No fussiness, but plenty of feistiness, as a succession perfectly reasonable deliveries were cuffed to the boundary. The ability to play with aggression and decisiveness at a point of the game where others may be nervous or unsure is one of Rogers’ great attributes, but another is the fashioning of hundreds. So far, despite serviceable contribution to the series, he has fallen short of that goal. Nonetheless, Rogers is Australia’s best hope of finding someone other than Clarke to push on to the kind of score an innings may be built around.Team newsGraham Onions and Chris Tremlett are both in the England squad, and it appears most likely that the former will shuffle into the XI, perhaps at the expense of Tim Bresnan. There will be some temptation to withdraw one of Stuart Broad or James Anderson from the firing line after their efforts so far in the series.England (probable) 1 Alastair Cook (capt), 2 Joe Root, 3 Jonathan Trott, 4 Kevin Pietersen, 5 Ian Bell, 6 Jonny Bairstow, 7 Matt Prior (wk), 8 Tim Bresnan/Graham Onions, 9 Stuart Broad, 10 Graeme Swann, 11 James AndersonHaving tried no end of permutations since Michael Hussey’s retirement, Australia appeared to settle on a batting order they may keep from the second innings in Manchester. David Warner looked comfortable at the top with Rogers, while Shane Watson’s bowling may again lead to his demotion. One of Ryan Harris or Mitchell Starc will most likely make way for the fresher Jackson Bird.Australia (probable) 1 David Warner, 2 Chris Rogers, 3 Usman Khawaja, 4 Michael Clarke (capt), 5 Shane Watson, 6 Steve Smith, 7 Brad Haddin (wk), 8 Peter Siddle, 9 Ryan Harris, 10 Nathan Lyon, 11 Jackson Bird.Pitch and conditionsThe surface unveiled for the fourth Test maintains a pattern of dry, hard pitches prepared more or less to the specifications of the England coach Andy Flower. The forecast for Durham is for the occasional shower amid periods of friendly, if cloudy, weather.Stats and trivia This is the first Ashes Test to be played in Durham, making it the ninth ground to host a Test between England and Australia in the UK The last Ashes series to be drawn 2-2 took place in England in 1972 Michael Clarke needs 103 runs to pass Justin Langer and move into sixth place on Australia’s list of all-time run-makersQuotes”We want to win the Ashes and we haven’t yet done it. Along the way we retained them pretty quickly so that is a great achievement and something to be mighty proud of. We want to go on and win the series. The way the lads are, the way we are as a team and the way Andy Flower operates, there will be no let up of the standards we set ourselves.”
“I don’t think anyone is here to ‘give them a go’. That’s not in any Test cricket and certainly not an Ashes series, especially the position we’re sitting in now. It’s about picking your best 11 players.”

Após um período de turbulência que resultou na demissão de Argel Fucks e eliminação na Copa do Brasil, o Coritiba começa a respirar novos ares com Umberto Louzer. Nas duas rodadas iniciais, o Verdão mantém o 100% de aproveitamento, anotou seis gols e não foi vazado nenhuma vez.

No jogo deste meio de semana, o Coxa terá alguns problemas na escalação. O meia Thiago Lopes e o atacante Rodrigão foram vetados pelo departamento médico. Por outro lado, o zagueiro Alan Costa, o volante João Vitor, o meia Giovani e o atacante Wanderley, poupados da última atividade, estão relacionados.

Caso não tenha nenhum problema de última hora, o Coritiba entra em campo com a seguinte formação: Alex Muralha; João Vitor, Alan Costa, Sabino e Patrick Brey; Matheus Bueno e Vitor Carvalho; Giovanni, Igor Paixão e Juan Alano; Igor Jesus.

Se o Coxa está invicto, o Cascavel quer dormir na zona de classificação para a semifinal. Com três pontos ganhos, o time do interior quer acabar com a maré de sorte do Coxa e assumir a vice-liderança.

Sem nenhum jogador suspenso, o Cascavel CR vai com o que tem de melhor: Marcos Paulo; Everaldo, Castro, Vitor e Taira; Hildo, Batatinha e Djair; Rafael Castro, Elenilson e Sassá.

حلمي طولان: أتمنى استمرار صلاح محسن مع سيراميكا.. وهدف بيراميدز ذكرني بـ روبرتو كارلوس

قال حلمي طولان المدير الفني لفريق الكرة الأول بنادي سيراميكا كليوباترا، إن بيراميدز يعد من أفضل الأندية التي تقدم مستوى رائع ولديهم أفضل قائمة لاعبين في مصر.

وكان سيراميكا قد نجح في تحقيق فوز مثير على بيراميدز في الجولة 33 من عمر الدوري المصري، ضمن به البقاء في الدوري الممتاز، وأهدى به درع التتويج للنادي الأهلي.

وأضاف طولان في تصريحات تلفزيونية ببرنامج “الماتش”: “الحالة النفسية للاعبي سيراميكا كانت صعبة بسبب صراع الهبوط، لكن الفوز على فريق بهذا الحجم شيء أكثر من رائع”.

وتابع: “أوجه التحيه لجميع لاعبي سيراميكا كليوباترا، الذين يشاركون في المباريات والذين لا يشاركون بسبب روح الفريق، عندما يحصل اللاعبين على مكافأة في أي مباراة يتم تقسيم المبلغ على جميع اللاعبين بالمستبعدين أيضًا”.

وواصل: “كان من الضروري اتخاذ قرارات حاسمة من أجل تقويم بعض اللاعبين وإعادة الانضباط لغرفة الملابس”.

وأردف: “لقاء المصري في نهائي كأس الرابطة سيكون صعبًا جدًا، أطالب اللاعبين بتقديم أداء أفضل وطموح أكبر”.

واستكمل: “أما عن هدف كريم حافظ الذي دخل مرمانا فهو من أفضل الأهداف التي رأيتها هذا الموسم، وذكرني بتسديدات روبرتو كارلوس نجم البرازيل”.

واستطرد: “لابد من وجود ضحايا لتنقية الأجواء في غرفة خلع الملابس وفرض حالة من الالتزام والانضباط”.

واستأنف: “تلقيت اتصالًا من محمد أبو العينين بعد لقاء بيراميدز لتهنئة الجهاز الفني واللاعبين، والوضع الحالي لا يليق بفريق سيراميكا كليوباترا بكل تأكيد”.

وأشار: “محمد إبراهيم لاعب مهم بالنسبة لنا ومن العناصر الرائعة ومثل إبني، دفعت به أمام بيراميدز في التوقيت المناسب واللاعب أحدث الفارق”.

وأتم: “لا يمكنني تحديد الراحلين عن الفريق قبل معرفة القادمين، أتمنى استمرار صلاح محسن مع الفريق وكذلك محمد شكري”.

يذكر، أن النادي الأهلي قد أبلغ صلاح محسن بالعودة إلى القلعة الحمراء فور نهاية الموسم الجاري، وذلك بطلب من المدير الفني مارسيل كولر.

Meia Alex, campeão da Libertadores e Mundial, faz anúncio de aposentadoria

MatériaMais Notícias

Em entrevista concedida para o programa Boleiragem, atração do canal fechado SporTV apresentada pelo ex-jogador e hoje comentarista Roger Flores, o meia Alex comunicou que, oficialmente, passou para o grupo de ex-atletas. Momento esse, aliás, onde ele não conseguiu conter a emoção.

-Ah, estou aposentado. Está bom, né? Está bem construído, né?Não estou jogando… Dois anos sem jogar, hoje não vem ninguém (atrás). Até brinquei, às vezes você recebe umas mensagens no Instagram de alguns torcedores, o que é legal – disse o agora efetivamente ex-jogador.

Questionado sobre a possibilidade de se tornar treinador e continuar no entorno do mundo do futebol, ele disse que não tem pressa para que isso ocorra:

-Dá vontade, mas o preço de ser treinador é muito alto. É um caminho que não tenho pressa. Vou esperar chegar aqueles cabelinhos brancos para o pessoal respeitar um pouco mais.Você precisa se conhecer um pouco mais também. E aí começar de auxiliar, pegar uma bagagem, para chegar na profissão, se vier a acontecer, com capacidade para executar. Mas precisa ser de cinco a dez anos treinador para não morrer do coração. A exigência é muito grande.

Alex revelou também que chegou a se deparar com um quadro de depressão quando percebeu não só a aproximação do término da carreira, mas também pelo tratamento dado a ele pela diretoria do Inter no segundo semestre de 2015.

– Hoje eu tenho consciência de tudo e posso dizer que estou seguro para isso (aposentadoria). Mas a vida tinha perdido totalmente o sentido para mim, e não era só no futebol. Eu sempre fui um cara que gostava de brincar e comecei a ficar triste no vestiário. A hora em que você vê que morre essa vida (de jogador) é chocante, porque eu não estava preparado (para aposentar). Eu poderia ter ido para outros clubes, mas não quis. Foram dois anos de aprendizado. Uma pessoa que não passa por isso (depressão) não consegue entender. Eu não tentei me matar, mas hoje eu entendo o porquê de algumas pessoas pensarem assim, e isso é algo que não desejo pra ninguém – detalhou.

Aos 36 anos de idade, o jogador revelado nas categorias de base do Guarani e com atuação também no Spartak Moscou-RUS e Al-Gharafa-CAT construiu uma trajetória repleta de títulos importantes principalmente em suas passagens por Internacional e Corinthians.

Somando as duas equipes, ele tem no currículo seis edições do Gauchão, duas edições da Libertadores (2006 e 2012), o Mundial Interclubes (2006) a Recopa Sul-Americana (2007), a Copa Dubai (2008), a Copa Sul-Americana (2008), o Brasileirão (2011) e a Recopa Gaúcha (2016).

Pato deve definir futuro nesta semana; Palmeiras ganha força

MatériaMais Notícias

Alexandre Pato deve definir qual será o seu próximo clube até quinta-feira. Essa é a expectativa de quem está envolvido na negociação. Neste momento, o otimismo é maior no Palmeiras do que no São Paulo.

O LANCE! conversou com diversas pessoas que estão acompanhando as tratativas ao longo desta terça-feira. Há diferentes versões sobre os valores apresentados por cada clube, mas um consenso: Pato ainda não deu sua palavra a ninguém, mas as últimas conversas indicam que ele está mais próximo do Palmeiras.

O Verdão, que conversa com Pato desde dezembro, oferece um contrato por produtividade até o fim deste ano, com previsão de aumento nos valores a partir de 2020 se o jogador de 29 anos atingir algumas metas. A proximidade do diretor de futebol Alexandre Mattos com André Cury, agente de Pato, é tida como decisiva.

Pato pagou 2,5 milhões de euros do próprio bolso para rescindir seu vínculo com o Tianjin Tianhai, da China, e deseja recuperar este investimento.

O São Paulo, com menor poder financeiro, ainda aposta no carinho que o atacante sempre demonstrou pelo clube, onde jogou entre 2014 e 2015. Nos bastidores do Palmeiras, no entanto, já há quem diga que Pato prefere jogar a Libertadores para estar mais próximo da Seleção Brasileira do que voltar ao Morumbi em um momento complicado. Pessoas ligadas à diretoria alviverde até negam que os valores oferecidos a Pato estejam muito distantes da proposta do São Paulo, algo que o LANCE! noticiou mais cedo.

Já está nos planos do Palmeiras negociar Miguel Borja na janela do meio do ano. A avaliação é de que o colombiano está desgastado, enquanto Deyverson não é muito confiável por seus recentes atos de indisciplina e Arthur Cabral é muito jovem.
