Nottingham Forest hold talks to sign £12m+ winger who could replace Elanga

Amid rumours that they’ve already had to reject a bid worth £45m to sell Anthony Elanga, Nottingham Forest have now reportedly opened talks to sign a possible replacement.

Nottingham Forest reject Newcastle's Elanga bid

After securing a shock place in the Europa Conference League in an excellent season last time out, Nottingham Forest are in no position to sell key players. But that hasn’t stopped certain clubs from testing the waters. Among them, Newcastle United reportedly formalised their interest in Elanga with an offer worth £45m earlier this week, only to see that bid rejected by those at the City Ground.

There’s still plenty of time remaining in the summer transfer window, however, and Forest will be well aware that Newcastle could yet come calling a second time.

If that does happen, then preparing for Elanga’s exit in a worst-case scenario would not be a bad idea for all involved at the City Ground. Already, on that front, Forest have attempted and failed to sign Timothy Weah from Juventus and have also been linked with versatile AC Milan midfielder Yunus Musah.

Whether either of those options possess the quality to replace Elanga is the big question. One man who is unlikely to face problems in that regard is Igor Jesus. The Botafogo forward is reportedly on his way to the Midlands alongside teammate Jair Cunha following their Club World Cup campaign.

The former has already stolen plenty of headlines with his winning goal against Champions League holders Paris Saint-Germain and is seemingly about to take the Premier League by storm.

Jesus and Cuiabano may not be the only Club World Cup stars to arrive, either, amid reports that Forest have opened talks to sign another attacking target.

Nottingham Forest open talks to sign Pepe

According to ESPN Brazil, Nottingham Forest have now opened talks to sign Pepe from FC Porto, who are demanding over €15m (£12m) to sell their 28-year-old winger this summer.

An experienced winger who scored at the Club World Cup for Porto in a 4-4 draw against Al-Ahly this summer, Pepe would offer Forest instant depth and may even be asked to replace Elanga if the Swede joins Newcastle.

The pressure would instantly be on Pepe if he did step in for Elanga and although his experience could prove to be invaluable, questions will be asked about his ability to match the 22-year-old’s output.

As a versatile backup who can play all across the frontline, however, the Porto man represents an ideal choice as Forest step into European football. At just over £12m too, it’s not a deal that Evangelos Marinakis will need to splash out on for Nuno Espirito Santo in the coming months.

Sem clube desde que saiu do Al-Ahli, Bastos pode ter sua inscrição com o Botafogo feita até 24 de agosto. A expectativa é que o acordo seja selado até dezembro de 2024.

O angolano passou pelo Petro Atlético, da Angola, FC Rostov, da Rússia, Al Ain, da Arábia Saudita, e Lazio, da Itália. O zagueiro é considerado a solução para compensar a vaga do equatoriano Luís Segovia, que deixou o time por empréstimo para o RWD Molenbeek, da Bélgica.

América and LAFC reportedly extend Javairo Dilrosun's loan one more day so he can play against Portland Timbers on Friday

The Dutch winger’s contract with LAFC will now run through Friday, July 25, instead of the original July 24 deadline.

Dutch winger Javairo Dilrosun will reportedly remain with LAFC for an extra day after the MLS club reached an agreement with Club América, allowing him to feature in this Friday’s match against the Portland Timbers. According to Tom Bogert, he will be eligible for the match, but his future is still to be determined with the club.

According to ESPN, América are looking to sell Dilrosun during the current transfer window to free up a foreign player slot – key to André Jardine’s plans for a new signing in the coming weeks. However, LAFC is also exploring the possibility of keeping the Dutchman on loan for a longer spell.

Dilrosun is under contract with América through December 2026, but the Mexican club is working to terminate the deal early. In seven MLS appearances, he has scored twice, including a crucial goal in the “El Tráfico” derby against the LA Galaxy.

According to other reports, Dilrosun could also be included as part of a potential deal that would bring LAFC star Denis Bouanga to América.

Getty Images SportDID YOU KNOW?

In just five MLS appearances, Dilrosun has already scored twice – a notable contrast to his time at Club América, where he managed just three goals across 52 matches. His early form with LAFC has certainly been a bright spot.

Steve Cherundolo’s team currently sits fifth in the Western Conference with 36 points. While the futures of Bouanga and Dilrosun are still being decided, both players are expected to feature in Friday’s away match against the Portland Timbers.

Corinthians não descarta acordo por rescisão de Luan; saiba quanto o clube deve ao jogador

MatériaMais Notícias

da leao: O Corinthians trabalha com a possibilidade de rescisão com o atacante Luan, que na última terça-feira (4) foi agredido por torcedores em um motel em São Paulo. Para isso, no entanto, o clube alvinegro precisaria pagar o que deve para o jogador. Saiba, então, quanto o Corinthians deve para Luan?

da lvbet: O jogador recebe mensalmente R$ 800 mil e tem contrato com o Timão até o dia 31 de dezembro. Assim, se não deixar a equipe até o fim do vínculo, a equipe do Parque São Jorge terá que pagar R$ 4,8 milhões. Porém, o Corinthians também deve R$ 4,5 milhões para o atleta por conta de direitos de imagem.

O Timão não tem dívidas salariais com os jogadores, mas assume algumas pendências em imagem, entre elas com Luan. Desta forma, o clube alvinegro deve, no total, R$ 9,3 milhões ao atleta.

Pagar Luan não é a prioridade financeira da direção corintiana no momento, mas frente aos acontecimentos recentes é estudada como a situação será resolvida. Não é descartada uma nova rodada de negociação para que o vínculo seja encerrado antes do prazo. O jogador está disposto a conversar sobre o assunto, inclusive, mas não abre mão de receber, pelo menos, parte dos valores.

Segundo Higor Maffei Bellini, presidente da Comissão de Direito Desportivo da OAB Butantã e especialista em Direito do Trabalho ao Lance!, Luan pode se apoiar no artigo 483, seção C da Consolidação das Leis do Trabalho (CLT) que afirma que “o empregado poderá considerar rescindido o contrato e pleitear a devida indenização quando correr perigo manifesto de mal considerável.”

– Ele pode pedir a rescisão. Pode alegar que faltou proteção a sua pessoa, que o Corinthians não tomou nenhuma medida para que ele fosse protegido de uma forma especial. Um jogador de futebol não é contratado para enfrentar riscos de ser agredido pela torcida organizada do clube dele. Se o Luan continuar trabalhando no Corinthians em virtude da situação que se desenhou na noite passada, ele está sim correndo o risco de um mau manifesto, que não é inerente ao seu trabalho – disse Higor.

– Outra linha que ele pode seguir, é que esse mau manifesto não é necessariamente ligado à atividade dele dentro das quatro linhas. Pode considerar que isso se estendeu para a vida pessoal dele, tanto que ele foi agredido num momento de lazer e ele não é obrigado a passar o final do seu contrato sob o risco iminente de ser agredido na rua, restaurante, ou qualquer lugar – conclui o advogado.

Luan foi contratado pelo Corinthians no fim de 2019. Na época, o Timão pagou R$ 25 milhões ao Grêmio por 50% dos direitos econômicos do atleta. No total, o meia-atacante fez 80 jogos e marcou 11 gols. No ano passado, ele esteve emprestado ao Santos durante três meses. A equipe do Parque São Jorge manteve o pagamento de 87,5% dos salários do atleta enquanto ele esteve no Peixe. O clube da Baixada Santista só arcou com R$ 100 mil dos R$ 800 mil acordados com o atleta.

مستشهدًا بـ جوزيه.. حازم إمام يفتح النار على لاعبي الزمالك ويانيك فيريرا

علق حازم إمام، نجم الزمالك السابق، على أداء الأبيض خلال الفترة الأخيرة، متحدثًا عن أبرز المشكلات الفنية والنفسية التي يعاني منها الفريق، مُقدمًا تحليلاً تفصيليًا لأداء اللاعبين وأسباب تراجع النتائج رغم السيطرة الواضحة في معظم المباريات.

وقال حازم إمام في تصريحات عبر برنامج “الحريفة” على إذاعة “أون سبورت إف إم”: “الزمالك تعادل أمس، وهو ليس في المركز الثاني كما يظن البعض، الفريق خسر المباراة السابقة، وتعادل مع الجونة، ولكن الغريب هذا الموسم أن الزمالك يقدم أداءً جيدًا في بداية المباريات، باستثناء مواجهة الأهلي، التي كانت أقل فنيًا بكثير، الفريق يبدأ المباريات بشكل قوي ومسيطر، ثم يتراجع فجأة ويستقبل هدفًا، سواء من هجمة مرتدة أو تسديدة بعيدة، وكأن الحظ يعانده”.

وتابع: “كرة القدم في النهاية توفيق من الله، فمثلًا في مباراة الأمس لم تكن هناك أي هجمة خطيرة باستثناء فرصة واحدة فقط التي سُجل منها هدف غزل المحلة، في مباراة الجونة أيضًا، تعادل الزمالك بهدف من تسديدة واحدة، وكذلك في مباراة وادي دجلة، وفي مواجهة الأهلي كان متقدمًا ثم استقبل هدفًا في الشوط الثاني، الفريق استقبل حتى الآن سبعة أهداف في الدوري، جميعها جاءت في الشوط الثاني، وهذه إشارة واضحة على وجود مشكلة حقيقية في التركيز خلال النصف الأخير من المباريات”.

وأضاف: “أي محلل أداء، حتى وإن كان مبتدئًا، سيلاحظ أن الزمالك يعاني في الشوط الثاني؛ لذلك، يجب على الجهاز الفني إيجاد حلول مثل تأمين الخط الخلفي أو زيادة الضغط أو تغيير أسلوب اللعب حتى لا يتكرر نفس السيناريو، على سبيل المثال، الهدف الأول الذي دخل مرمى الزمالك أمام مودرن، من كرة ثابتة بعد ركنية ارتدت بطريقة غريبة، ثم توالت الأخطاء نفسها في المباريات التالية أمام وادي دجلة والجونة والأهلي وغزل المحلة”.

وأردف: “في كل مرة، حين يستقبل الزمالك هدفًا، أشعر أن اللاعبين يتوترون بشكل مبالغ فيه، فجأة يبدأ الفريق في لعب الكرات الطويلة غير المفهومة، وتجد لاعبين يمررون الكرة بشكل عشوائي، حتى في مواقف لا تستدعي ذلك، على أي لاعب يرتدي قميص الزمالك أن يتحلى بالثقة، لأنه يلعب في نادٍ كبير، مثله مثل الأهلي أو بيراميدز، اللعب تحت الضغط في نادٍ جماهيري يجب أن يكون دافعًا، لا عبئًا”.

وواصل: “جمهور الزمالك كان حاضرًا بكثافة رغم التعادل السابق، وهذا يعكس دعمه الكبير للفريق، لذلك لا يجوز أن يفقد اللاعبون ثقتهم بمجرد استقبال هدف، لست ضد فكرة الكرات الطويلة، لكن يجب أن تُلعب لمن؟ ما الهدف منها؟ بالأمس لعب الزمالك كرات عالية كثيرة، ولكن لم يكن هناك من يستغلها بالشكل الأمثل”.

واستمر: “أتذكر عندما كان مانويل جوزيه مدربًا للأهلي، كان يدفع بوائل جمعة كرأس حربة إضافي في الدقائق الأخيرة لاستغلال الكرات الهوائية، وهو ما نراه في أوروبا أيضًا مثلما يفعل ماجواير مع مانشستر يونايتد، بالأمس، قام فيريرا بإجراء تغييرات عديدة، وكان أحمد ربيع أحد الإيجابيات، فهو لاعب مميز منذ أن كان في البنك الأهلي، يجيد اللعب برأسه، ولديه نزعة هجومية قوية، وسيُحدث الفارق في وسط الملعب بجانب دونجا وحاتم سكر عند عودته”.

وأوضح: “بعد التعادل، أخرج فيريرا عمرو ناصر ودفع بسيف الجزيري، رغم أن الموقف كان يتطلب الإبقاء على الثنائي معًا للعب الكرات الطويلة، ثم قام بإخراج أحد لاعبي الارتكاز، كان من الممكن الدفع بحسام عبد المجيد للأمام كمهاجم إضافي بجوار سيف الجزيري، خاصة أن الكرات العرضية كانت تُشكل خطورة حقيقية على دفاع غزل المحلة”.

واستطرد حازم إمام: “في أكثر من كرة عرضية بالأمس، بدا واضحًا أن دفاع المحلة يعاني من التعامل مع الكرات الهوائية، إذًا، لماذا لم يواصل الزمالك اللعب بهذه الطريقة؟ كان من الممكن أن يُبقي على ثنائي هجومي في العمق ويطلب من الأجنحة إرسال كرات عرضية متكررة، خصوصًا أن الفريق كان مستحوذًا تمامًا على مجريات اللقاء”.

وأردف: “شاهدنا لقطة غريبة في الدقيقة 97، عندما قام محمد صبحي بتنفيذ كرة عرضية بعد رمية تماس، رغم أنه ليس متخصصًا في ذلك، لم أفهم الفكرة من أن يترك اللاعبون تنفيذ الكرة لحارس المرمى في آخر فرصة بالمباراة، هذه اللقطة أوضحت حالة الارتباك التي يعيشها الفريق في الدقائق الأخيرة”.

وأكد: “أحيانًا يكون التوفيق هو الفارق بين الفوز والتعادل، لكن الزمالك بحاجة إلى شخصية قوية داخل الملعب، صحيح أن الفارق في النقاط مع الأهلي أو بيراميدز ليس كبيرًا، لكن المشكلة تكمن في فقدان التركيز وقت التقدم، الزمالك دائمًا يبدأ بشكل جيد ويتقدم في النتيجة، ثم يفقد السيطرة تدريجيًا”.

وأوضح: “الإحصاءات تؤكد أن الزمالك لم يكن سيئًا فنيًا، فقد سدد الفريق 25 كرة مقابل تسديدتين فقط لغزل المحلة، وبلغت نسبة الاستحواذ 66% مقابل 34%، كما وصلت دقة تمريرات الزمالك إلى 80% مقابل 68% للمحلة، ونفذ الفريق 35 كرة عرضية مقابل 7 فقط للمنافس، بالإضافة إلى 10 ركلات ركنية مقابل ركنية واحدة”.

واختتم: “الأرقام كلها في صالح الزمالك، لكنه يفتقد للفعالية الهجومية والشراسة داخل منطقة الجزاء، الفريق يلعب بشكل منظم ويمتلك الاستحواذ، لكن دون إنهاء فعّال للهجمات، وكأن الأداء مجرد استحواذ ليس حقيقي، الزمالك يحتاج فقط إلى اللمسة الأخيرة والحفاظ على التركيز حتى النهاية”.

Warner on Wood and Archer: 'Just have to use their pace'

The Australia opener could be facing England for the last time as his career draws to a close

Warner relives Australia’s T20 World Cup triumph in 2021

David Warner has predicted England’s last two Ashes destroyers loom as far different prospects on the slower T20 World Cup wickets of the Caribbean.Australia will meet England for the first time in any format since last year’s tense Ashes series on Saturday [Sunday AEDT] in Barbados, in each side’s second game of the World Cup.Related

  • Jofra Archer: 'I had a bit of a cry' on return to action in Barbados

Mark Wood and Jofra Archer are expected to play for an England side desperately needing a win after a washout against Scotland.Archer has not played Australia since the 2020 white-ball series in England, which took place during Covid, having made his mark against them in his debut Test series in 2019. Wood was also England’s most hostile bowler in the 2023 Ashes, coming in at Headingley and helping the hosts go from 2-0 down to a 2-2 draw.Both are among the quickest in the world at their best, but the slow pitches of the Caribbean are far removed from their home conditions. Throw in the fact it is a T20 rather than a Test match, and Warner believes this is a very different scenario.”You just have to use their pace,” Warner said. “Test cricket they set different fields, different balls. In Twenty20 cricket, you only have to get half an edge on it and it can go. So there’s a fair difference.”David Warner played an important innings against Oman•Getty Images

Warner also does not expect consistently high bounce as seen elsewhere in the world.”I’ve played a lot of cricket over here,” Warner said. “You are expecting it to be low rather than bounce, unless it is real short. The variation in bounce is what surprises you. Because when they pitch the ball that eight-metre [from the stumps] length, your natural instinct is to pull it. But you have to go back to targeting straight, backing yourself, and if it does bounce, so be it.”Warner hit a steady 56 from 51 balls to guide Australia to a winnable score in their first match against Oman to begin his last international tournament. The runs came after a disappointing IPL, prompting questions from critics over whether he deserved a final hurrah ahead of rising star Jake Fraser-McGurk.”It [the criticism] doesn’t fuel me. It’s in one ear, out the other,” Warner said. “I don’t understand why it’s all about myself. There are 11 players in the team. I don’t get it.”People feel like they have to keep criticising the way I play. I don’t know what it is. I have no answer as to why people write that. I have had it my whole career. I don’t listen to it.”Sunday’s Group B clash has gone from near irrelevant to crucial for England, after their shared points with Scotland. A loss to Australia would spell disaster for the defending champions, after Scotland beat Namibia on Friday. If England are beaten, it would leave open the prospect of a net run-rate shootout between them and Scotland to be the second team to advance from the group.

World Cup 2019 and the curious story of the bails that lost their zing

Jasprit Bumrah to David Warner was the fifth instance at this World Cup of a batsman surviving despite the ball hitting his stumps

Andrew McGlashan09-Jun-2019It has become one of the talking points of the World Cup: the story of the (sometimes) immovable bails. Five times now the ball has clipped, or even clunked, the stumps only for the zing bails to stay in their groove. It follows similar incidents at this year’s IPL and had been seen as far back as the 2015 World Cup.The ICC say that the weight of the zing bails, which have flashing lights built into them, is not an issue with them coming in at somewhere between the weight of traditional bails and the heavy versions umpires carry for windy days.Still, when the likes of Mitchell Starc are clipping the timber at more than 90mph, it is probably fair to ask whether it’s just an extraordinary turn of events or something that needs to be looked into.David Warner looks on as the ball hits the stumps but fails to dislodge the bails•AFP”I think you take the good with the bad in that situation. I suppose with the new – the light-up stumps, the bails seem to be a lot heavier – so it does take a bit of a force,” Australia’s captain Aaron Finch said after seeing Chris Gayle’s stump get flicked by Starc.”I’ve seen it a handful of times now in IPL and Big Bash and stuff where the ball rolls back onto the stumps, where the bails traditionally, one of them will pop off. But yeah, I think it’s just one of those things that you are aware when you’re on the right side of it, you are aware of it a bit easier than when you’re not.”None of the incidents at this World Cup have yet proved pivotal to the outcome, but here’s a reminder of the five lucky batsmen and unlucky bowlers.England v South AfricaRashid to de Kock, FOUR runs, got him, or has he?! What on earth has gone on here? England think they’ve bowled him! It’s flicked the bat on the reverse sweep from outside leg, thumped the outside of the stump and triggered the zing bails but the bails haven’t come off, and the ball has gone for four!New Zealand v Sri LankaBoult to Karunaratne, no run, nearly chopped on! Looking to run it down but had no width whatsoever. Guess what? The ball brushed the stumps, the bails shook but didn’t come off the groove.Irresistible force, meet immovable object•ESPNcricinfo LtdAustralia v West IndiesStarc to Gayle, no run, given out but Gayle reviews immediately! Fullish length on fourth stump angled in, Gayle is late driving as there was a definite noise when it passed the stumps… because the ball has in fact shaved off stump. A little peck! The baby smooch! Not a full pucker to dislodge the bails though. Incredible!England v BangladeshStokes to Mohammad Saifuddin, no run, bowled him … no, the bails have stayed on! Down the leg side, under-edged into the crease, hops up into the timbers and despite an audible clunk of wood, the wicket remains intact!Australia v IndiaBumrah to Warner, no run, Warner drags it back onto the stumps, but the bails refuse to budge. Clatters into the base of leg stump via a deflection off the boot, but the bails stay put. Banged in short and angling across off, Warner can’t get on top of it. He fiddles with it and inside-edges it back onto the stumps. How many times has this happened in this World Cup?

Rutherford powers Quetta Gladiators to last-ball win over depleted Karachi Kings

Sherfane Rutherford hit an unbeaten half-century and earned a five-wicket win for Quetta Gladiators over a depleted Karachi Kings in the Pakistan Super League on Thursday.Rutherford smashed 58 not out off 31 balls with six towering sixes and a match-winning boundary off the final ball as Quetta recovered from a middle-order collapse to chase down 166 for their fourth win in five games.Karachi couldn’t cash in on James Vince and Tim Seifert’s impactful batting in the powerplay before they got tangled against the Quetta spinners and were restricted to 165 for 8. It was Karachi’s third loss in five games.Several frontline Karachi players including Mir Hamza, Tabraiz Shamsi and Leus du Plooy missed the game because of a viral infection. Du Plooy was hospitalised.Legspinner Zahid Mahmood, playing in his first game of the season, and Hasan Ali brought Karachi into the game with two wickets each and Shoaib Malik had the key wicket of half-centurion Jason Roy as Quetta stumbled to 89 for 5 in the 12th over.But Rutherford led the counterattack – with Akeal Hosein – with his powerful hitting before smashing fast bowler Anwar Ali in the final over. Quetta needed 15 from six balls, and Rutherford’s two sixes off the first two balls tilted the game in their favour.Earlier, Shan Masood’s below-par first season as Karachi captain continued when he was bowled for 2 by left-arm spinner Hosein in the first over.Vince smacked eight fours in his whirlwind knock during the power play before spinner Usman Tariq changed the complexion of the game by trapping both Seifert and Vince lbw in his first over.Abrar Ahmed came back well in his last two overs and got three wickets as Kieron Pollard was bowled by the legspinner in the death overs. Anwar provided a late flurry with an unbeaten 25 that included 20 off Mohammad Wasim’s last over but it was not enough.

Everton intensely scout "very special" star who Bayern want alongside Kane

Everton boss David Moyes will inherit financial backing from The Friedkin Group this summer, and he is expected to bring in a new era with some exciting arrivals.

Everton set their stall out ahead of upcoming window

Life at Everton is an exciting prospect for supporters, who have enjoyed visits to their new stadium at Bramley Moore Dock during test events. David Moyes has plenty on his plate before the move becomes reality, but he will hope to bring some recognisable names to the club during the close season to ensure morale remains at a recent all-time high.

According to reports, Federico Gatti could become a Toffee this summer for £25 million. Juventus have put his contract situation on hold until the end of the campaign, sparking hope of a timely intervention from the Premier League outfit.

Juventus' FedericoGattiand Khephren Thuram celebrate after the match

Further up the field of play, highly-rated Sunderland breakout star Chris Rigg is an Everton target. Transitioning to a younger core appears to be on the agenda, which could see Abdoulaye Doucoure depart Goodison Park amid speculation over his long-term future.

Internally, Moyes must decide on out-of-contract stars such as Doucoure, Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Seamus Coleman. Jesper Lindstrom, Jack Harrison and a host of other loanees are also in the dark over where they will play their club football next term, prompting scope for movement in both directions.

Everton’s main priority at this point is moving up the Premier League table until safety is mathematically confirmed. Still, questions remain concerning whether the Toffees will conduct a rebuild or a refresh once the window opens.

Either way, supporters may now have an inkling of where Moyes’ transfer plans lie following news he has a talented forward in his sights who is also attracting attention from European heavyweights.

Everton to fight Bayern Munich for Stuttgart's Woltemade

According to reports in Germany via Sport Witness, Everton are in the mix to sign Stuttgart striker Nick Woltemade. Brighton & Hove Albion and Bayern Munich will also compete for his signature. The latter would like to bring in the Germany Under-21 international to fight it out with Harry Kane to lead their frontline, which is a testement to his return of 12 goals and three assists in 24 appearances this campaign.

Everton must rue losing "special" star worth even more than Branthwaite

The former Everton star left Goodison Park in acrimonious circumstances.

ByAngus Sinclair Mar 28, 2025

Labelled “very special” by Sebastian Hoeneß, the 23-year-old has also shown his capacity to fashion opportunities for others, laying on 24 chances and completing 26 dribbles in the Bundesliga.

Capable of playing as a centre-forward or in a slightly detached role off the main striker, Woltemade possesses the versatility necesarry to make an impact in the top-flight. The Toffees have sent scouts to watch him in action on several occasions, indicating interest in his services definitely carries some weight.

The sticking point for Everton may be their competitors. Opportunities for a young star to join Bayern Munich don’t come around often, while Brighton have shown an ability to develop talent at an alarming rate over the last few years.

Can Moyes convince Woltemade that Merseyside is a better destination? There is no time like the present, with the club set to embark on an exciting new era.
