Newcastle United’s lack of squad depth has been highlighted massively over the course of the 2023/24 campaign, with Eddie Howe’s side decimated by injuries.

The defensive unit has taken the biggest hit, with Sven Botman and Jamaal Lascelles the latest casualties, both suffering ACL injuries, ruling them out for at least nine months.

Kieran Trippier, a player who was influential in the club’s Champions League qualification season in 2022/23, has looked like a shadow of his former self, missing over two months of the campaign, and being kept out of the side by Emil Krafth for the final game at Brentford last weekend.

However, despite the trio’s respective woes in recent months, the injury to goalkeeper Nick Pope has dealt boss Howe the biggest blow, with the 32-year-old missing for nearly five months following shoulder surgery.

Martin Dubravka has deputised for Pope in recent months, but with the Slovakian now 35, he’s entering the twilight years of his career.

Reinforcements are desperately needed, with the Magpies – aided by the backing of the Saudi PIF – already looking at one player to potentially fill the void ahead of the start of the 2024/25 campaign.

Newcastle interested in signing £35m talent this summer

According to Fabrizio Romano’s latest update, Newcastle are battling with Atlético Madrid to sign Valencia shot-stopper Giorgi Mamardashvili.

The Georgian is set to leave the Mestalla this summer, after the club agreed a deal to sign Stole Dimitrievski from fellow La Liga side Rayo Vallecano.

The 23-year-old has made 36 appearances during the 2023/24 campaign, keeping 13 clean sheets, the joint third-highest in the division despite finishing ninth at the end of the season.

He could be available for around £35m this summer, with the club needing to push hard to get a deal over the line, with Mamardashvili having the potential to feature between the sticks for the next decade for the Magpies.

The club have previously registered interest in Arsenal goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale to replace Pope at St James’ Park, but given the recent rumours about the Georgian, Howe’s side should look to forget about the Gunners ‘keeper who's arguably nowhere near the level of Mamardashvili.

Why Mamardashvili would be the perfect Ramsdale alternative

Whilst there’s no debating that either shot-stopper would be an upgrade on Newcastle’s current goalkeeping situation, it’s clear that the "superb" Georgian, as described by talent scout Jacek Kulig, would be a better option than the England international.

During the 2023/24 season, he’s prevented 0.28 goals for the Spanish side, whilst Ramsdale has conceded 0.22 more goals than he should’ve based on the shots he faced in the Premier League.

He’s also averaged a higher save percentage within his performances this campaign – with the 23-year-old evidently better at preventing goals than the former Bournemouth man.

Mamardashvili, who's been described as "superior" to Arsenal's keeper by data analyst Ben Mattinson, averages 2.9 saves per game for Valencia, demonstrating his shot-stopper ability on a consistent basis for Ruben Baraja’s side in La Liga, with Ramsdale averaging nearly two times less than his tally, with just 1.5 per 90.

With two viable options on the table for the Magpies, it is pivotal that PIF get their recruitment right, especially with the side's current financial situation.

Whilst they will face stiff competition for his signature, they must prioritise a deal for Mamardashvili this summer, with the 23-year-old having

the quality to thrive in the Premier League on Tyneside.

Manchester United have made an early move to sign an exciting attacker this summer, but will have to move fast to secure his signature.

Red Devils aiming for major change

The FA Cup success to end the season did little but paper over the massive cracks at Old Trafford, and we don't just mean the ones in the roof.

It was another dismal Premier League season for the Red Devils, and while Erik ten Hag has pointed countless times to injuries being a key factor in that, they conceded a mammoth 17.6 shots per game across the course of the campaign, a statistic that ranks them 95th out of the 96 sides in Europe's top five leagues, right between relegated pair Luton Town and Sheffield United.

At the other end of the pitch, they only managed to score one more goal than Brentford, who finished 16th, and their return of 57 goals was only good enough for the joint ninth-best in the Premier League. With this in mind, Ten Hag's future at the club remains unclear, while plenty of his players face the same uncertainty.

Raphael Varane and Anthony Martial have already both confirmed their departures, and they are likely to be followed by Jonny Evans and Tom Heaton, both of whom are out of contract this summer.

A decision will have to be made on a potential permanent deal for loanee Sofyan Amrabat, and the likes of Casemiro, Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Victor Lindelof, Antony and Jadon Sancho are all among those who could depart this summer.

It threatens to be a busy summer in Manchester, but they could supplement the torrent of exits with some well thought out fresh faces.

Man Utd kick start move for Olmo

Now, the Red Devils have been credited with an interest in RB Leipzig attacker Dani Olmo, who is believed to have a £51m release clause written into his £170,000 per week contract in Germany. But clubs will have to act fast to activate it, with the clause only valid until July 15th, the day after the final of the European Championships, which Olmo is representing Spain in.

As per reports in Spain, United have already started to 'move' for a deal to take the 26-year-old to Old Trafford this summer, though they face competition from the likes of Manchester City, Liverpool and Barcelona for his signature.

An attacking midfielder, Olmo's ability to find the back of the net has stood out since his days as a young starlet with Barcelona's youth setup.

His former coach at La Masia explained: "He was a typical forward, a very good finisher. He scored goals in every age category. He understood space well, so he could always find room to score. He's a natural-born goalscorer."

Able to operate either as a false nine or in an attacking midfield role, a move to Manchester would only likely make sense were Bruno Fernandes set to depart the club, with the pair playing a similar position and the £60m signing of Mason Mount last summer also a factor.

But, with consistent speculation surrounding the Manchester United captain, Olmo could well be a fine replacement should he ultimately depart.

The players’ body has warned of administrative ‘dysfunctionality that threatens the existence of the game in our country’

Firdose Moonda19-Aug-2020

South Africa’s players, both men and women, have no indication of when they will return to play•Getty Images

The South African Cricketers’ Association (SACA) has issued a stern warning about the state of the game in the country and warned that its existence is under threat following the departure of the CEO and the president of Cricket South Africa (CSA). SACA has called on Chris Nenzani, who resigned as president over the weekend, to offer an explanation for stepping away three weeks before his tenure ended and for CSA to show leadership in matters relating to the suspended CEO Thabang Moroe and the season ahead.”SACA has engaged directly with players over the past few weeks, and there is a growing realisation amongst players that their careers as professional cricketers are being threatened by the very organization that should be nurturing them,” a SACA statement read.It further asked that CSA work appropriately to resolve the issues of discrimination that have come to light following Lungi Ngidi’s stance on the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement, and the resumption of the domestic and international season and Moroe’s disciplinary situation. Most pressingly for SACA, South Africa’s players, both men and women, have no indication of when they will return to play following the Covid-19 hiatus, both as a result of international borders being closed and because no domestic fixtures have been finalised.ALSO READ – Graeme Smith ‘shocked’ after threats on supporting Black Lives Matter movement”CSA must show leadership in dealing with the various crises facing the game; the transformation and discrimination crisis that has come to the fore over the past two months; the resumption of domestic and international cricket under COVID-19; the finalization of the disciplinary matter of the suspended CEO; the forensic investigation; and the forecast deficit which has the potential to financially cripple the game,” the statement read.Franchise teams have returned to training and there is talk of the season starting in November but there is no clarity on whether the franchise T20 tournament, the Mzansi Super League (MSL), will take place or who will lead CSA through the next few months.An Acting CEO, Kugandrie Govender, was named this morning and will hold the post until the Moroe case is finalised. Only then can CSA begin the search for a new CEO. CSA is also operating under an acting president, Beresford Williams, with a new president set to be elected at the AGM on September 5. Nenzani has undertaken to engage with the media after that but SACA CEO Andrew Breetzke would like answers from him immediately.”Mr Nenzani owes all stakeholders an immediate explanation as to why he has stood down a mere three weeks before the CSA AGM, after he had refused to do so over the previous eight-month period despite calls to do so from key stakeholders within the game,” Breetzke said. “Together with the sudden resignation of Dr Jacques Faul as acting-CEO, one can only deduce that the Board of Directors has yet again reached a level of dysfunctionality that threatens the existence of the game in our country.”SACA has consistently led calls for Nenzani and Williams to step down, following last year’s administrative meltdown and again pointed to the board as being responsible for the troubles in the game. SACA continue to point at CSA’s inability to resolve its myriad problems as being due to lack of corporate governance and warned the game may face “total collapse” if issues are not dealt with.”CSA is embroiled in destructive politics at Board and Management level. It is evident that cricket is unable to self-correct,” Omphile Ramela, SACA’s president said. ” Many of the administrative challenges confronting the game are as a result of administrators failing to adhere to principles of corporate governance. Before we see the total collapse of the game of cricket there needs to be a leadership intervention at Board and Management level that is able to stabilise and transform both the game and the business of cricket.”

On Friday, Spanish outlet Diario AS revealed that Liverpool had set their asking price for Barcelona-linked Luis Diaz at a hefty €75m (£68m). Rumours that the Colombian is headed for Catalonia persist, with little sign of slowing down.

Diaz was one of Liverpool's most dependable performers throughout the 2023/24 campaign but with Jurgen Klopp now gone and the 27-year-old only scoring 13 goals from 51 matches, turning down an offer that matches the above-mentioned figure might feel difficult for FSG and its footballing CEO Michael Edwards.

Mohamed Salah, on the alternate wing, looks set to star for Arne Slot's Liverpool next term, entering the final year of his £350k-per-week contract but remaining one of Europe's first-class forwards, scoring 25 goals and adding 14 assists as the Reds finished third in the Premier League and won the Carabao Cup.

But Salah is nearly 32 years old and, regardless of what happens in the short term, is not going to be around forever.

Liverpool are in the market for a wide forward and while the situation on the left remains uncertain, Edwards and Co are seeking Salah's successor and might just have identified the perfect option.

Liverpool lining up Salah successor

As per The Telegraph, Newcastle United are scrambling to cross the line in relation to PSR and as such could turn to Yankuba Minteh as one of the most profitable assets at Eddie Howe's disposal.

The 19-year-old is a talented winger and enjoyed a successful breakout season on loan at Feyenoord but the Magpies' struggle is Liverpool's gain, with the report suggesting that Slot's side could take advantage and bolster their wide options by signing the Gambia international.

Newcastle do not want to sell but if an interested party were to lodge an offer of £40m, they may well have to consider accepting.

Yankuba Minteh's season in numbers

Signed from Danish side Odense Boldklub in July 2023 for about £6m, Minteh was swiftly sent away from St. James' Park to the Netherlands, tasked with fostering and honing his talent on loan with Eredivisie champions Feyenoord.

Odense's chief executive Steffen Nielsen hailed the wide forward's "magic" ability with the ball and that was certainly showcased throughout his time in Rotterdam, with Minteh plundering ten goals and six assists from 27 matches in the Dutch top flight as well as scoring against Celtic in the Champions League.

Principally a right winger, Liverpool will no doubt appreciate his goalscoring ability but the player's underlying numbers are certain to be the reason behind the data-driven Edwards' interest.

Combative, creative and lively, the 5 foot 11 starlet averaged one key pass, 2.2 dribbles, 1.7 tackles and 5.0 successful duels per game, as per Sofascore, also creating nine big chances.

One of the foremost in the division for goals per game, rate of assisting, and positive, forward action when carrying the ball himself, Minteh appears destined for the top of the European game if his prodigious beginning is anything to go by.

And given that he's already being compared to a Liverpool legend in Sadio Mane, surely it would be worth Slot pushing to get the deal over the line, having led him throughout the recently concluded campaign.

Why Liverpool should sign Yankuba Minteh

First, let's address the obvious point. Minteh has spent a year in the Netherlands sharpening his tools and, crucially, he's done so under Slot's guidance.

If reports are on the mark and Liverpool do have an interest in the teenage talent, there's little question that Slot has played a key part in pushing for his signature, having recognised the qualities that played a key role in finishing second in the league and winning the KNVB Cup, albeit getting sent off in the final.

One scout has noted that once it all clicks for Minteh, "he can reach Sadio Mane level", such is the quality of his gliding gait and the budding deadliness of his shooting.

Minteh, certainly, has the makings of a breezy finisher, demonstrating as much this season. He missed ten big chances in the Eredivisie but also converted ten strikes. Darwin Nunez, for comparison, scored 11 Premier League goals this season and missed 27 big chances.

Minteh's clinical edge definitely has something about the Senegalese sensation, who missed 13 big chances during his final Premier League term, scoring 16 goals. Moreover, Mane completed 2.3 dribbles and won 6.9 duels on average, underscoring his all-encompassing value that has sadly not been replicated to the max by Diaz.

Consistency will be key but Newcastle's talent has proven himself across the year, scoring three goals from four league outings in September before closing the campaign with seven goals and four assists across 11 appearances.

Whether Liverpool decide to give the young star a chance remains to be seen, with other targets being considered, but since Salah is set to stay for at least one more year, why not provide him with a prodigious understudy who could use the forthcoming year to assimilate some of the Egyptian's trademark qualities.

Then, unleashing his skill set as Liverpool's star man on the right flank of Slot's frontline.

England Test captain hits 64 then takes two wickets in dominant performance

ECB Reporters Network30-Aug-2020

Joe Root last played a T20 for Yorkshire in August 2018•Getty Images

Joe Root’s commanding 64 off 40 balls followed by two wickets with his offbreaks helped Yorkshire end their Vitality Blast hoodoo against Derbyshire with a thumping 99-run win at Emerald Headingley.England’s Test captain hit two leg-side sixes and seven fours as the Vikings posted 220 for 5 before easily defending it to end a run of six straight North Group defeats against the Falcons.Derbyshire, last season’s semi-finalists, had done the double over the White Rose county in each of the last three summers, but they rarely looked like extending their dominance as they crumbled to 19 for 4 in the fifth over of their reply and later finished on 121 for 9.ALSO READ: Root ‘realistic’ about 2021 T20 WC chancesNew ball quick Matthew Fisher’s 3 for 21 from four overs were the pick of the Yorkshire figures.Root, who also claimed two for seven from two overs, and Adam Lyth underpinned Yorkshire’s eighth score of 220 or more in T20 history.The second-wicket pair shared 84 inside nine overs to advance from 32 for one in the third after Tom Kohler-Cadmore, who fell for 16, had won the toss and elected to bat.Lyth, 61 off 36 balls, and Root hit five sixes between them, all leg-side, before Will Fraine matched that total on his own in a blistering 44 not out off 16 balls at the death. Fraine hit his sixes on both sides of an excellent Headingley pitch.Luis Reece took two wickets in the penultimate over with full tosses. But, largely, the Falcons bowlers – there were seven used to Yorkshire’s eight in the second half of the game – struggling for line and length proved to their detriment.Lyth made the early running for the hosts before Root serenely caught him up and posted his fifth career T20 fifty for Yorkshire, four of which have come in his last six innings dating back to 2015. Root struck the ball crisply, with the odd reverse-sweep and late cut to third man thrown in for good measure.He offered a sharp chance to Derby skipper Billy Godleman at cover on 43 off Matt Critchley’s legspin, though looked in little trouble besides in a clash between two sides who had their opening North Group fixture rained off on Thursday evening.Both Lyth and Root eventually fell caught at deep midwicket sweeping at debutant legspinner Mattie McKiernan. When Root departed early in the 16th over, Yorkshire were 160 for 3, with Fraine then taking on the lead role as he set about an early career best score.The former Nottinghamshire man took advantage of some loose bowling and smeared the the lion’s share of 22 off Fynn Hudson-Prentice in the last over of the innings.Derby were then in the mire early in their chase – 19 for four in the fifth over – two wickets apiece for new ball quick Matthew Fisher and Root’s offspin.Key men Reece, Wayne Madsen, Godleman and Leus du Plooy all departed without impacting the chase, with Root getting Godleman lbw and du Plooy caught at cover in the fifth over – his second. From there, it was game over.Legspinner Josh Poysden strengthened that theory by also striking twice – in his first appearance since last July having suffered and recovered from a fractured skull – as the score slipped to 70 for 6 after 13 overs.Critchley’s measured 26 was nothing more than a consolatory effort, and it was ended by Harry Brook’s medium pacers. Fisher and George Hill claimed further wickets.”The platform was set so well from Adam Lyth and Joe Root, and the pitch was really good,” said Fraine. “It came off for me today. I had a good game plan, and luckily they missed their yorkers and I managed to get a few away.”Rooty’s a joke – he’s a ridiculous cricketer. He was exceptional today. He was hitting balls halfway up the stumps off the back foot for four, and it was just like: ‘How can you do that?'”I would for sure have him in that [England T20] squad. I think he’s such an underrated T20 player. He has a bag of tricks with his bowling: offies, leggies, he can do anything with the ball. He’s very handy there, he’s handy in the field, and he showed today his calmness with the bat. You don’t need to bottom-hand slog it. He was hitting the ball as hard as anyone and looked so good doing it.”

وأضاف: “عند فوز الأهلي بـ اللقب الـ11 في تاريخه من بطولة دوري أبطال إفريقيا، سمعنا أثناء خروجنا مباشرة من الملعب، الجماهير تكرر رغبتها في تحقيق اللقب الـ12، وذلك عكس ما نراه في الفرق المغربية، عند الفوز بـ اللقب يظلون سعداء به لـ7 سنوات كاملة”.

واختتم: “المسؤولون في الأهلي، يعملون على توفير جميع الظروف المناسبة للعمل، سواء تجهيز الملاعب أو الفنادق والتذاكر الخاصة، وعندما نشاهد الأندية المغربية فإننا نجد طبيبًا واحدًا يقوم بجميع الأدوار”.

يذكر، أن بدر بانون انتقل إلى صفوف نادي قطر خلال عام 2022، بعد مسيرة ناجحة مع الأهلي ويواصل تواجده حتى الآن في الدوري القطري.

Mais um jogo da 17ª rodada do Brasileirão Série B movimentou a noite desta terça-feira, 10. Jogando na Serrinha, em Goiânia, o Goiás recebeu o Remo. Apesar de sofrer no primeiro tempo, o Esmeraldino se reinventou e saiu na frente. Contudo, no final do jogo, em pênalti, o Leão deixou tudo igual.

EM BUSCA DO GOL…

O árbitro mal havia apitado o início do jogo, e as duas equipes já colocaram grande pressão para sair na frente. Logo nos primeiros minutos, o Remo apareceu. Matheus Oliveira arriscou de fora da área. Contudo, acabou pecando na finalização e mandou pela linha de fundo. A resposta do Goiás veio na sequência, com Alef Manga, que foi lançado em profundidade por Élvis. O atacante invadiu a área do Leão e bateu de canhota. O goleiro Vinícius espalmou.

PRESSÃO DO LEÃO!

O Remo continuou a grande intensidade, conseguindo surpreender mais o seu adversário. Inclusive, foram os visitantes quem tiveram as melhores chances, mas pecaram muito na finalização. Aos 8, Victor Andrade limpou para a perna direita e mandou rente à trave do Esmeraldino.

EQUILÍBRIO…

Depois de bons sustos dos times, a partida ficou mais equilibrada. Apesar disso, o Remo ainda contava com maior posse de bola e sempre evitava os avanços dos adversários. Com isso, o Goiás só encontrou espaço aos 23, com Nicolas, que cabeceou pela linha de fundo.

QUASE!

A melhor chance do jogo aconteceu aos 28. Na jogada, o meia Erick Flores cabeceou, mas Iago Mendonça evitou. Na sequência, Victor Andrade recebeu um cruzamento rasteiro, batendo de primeira. Tadeu salvou. Sem outros lances, o jogo foi para o intervalo.

RECOMEÇO MUITO TRUNCADO

Na volta do intervalo, as equipes diminuíram a pressão, caindo a intensidade, principalmente do Remo, na segunda etapa. Assim, a jogada de maior perigo foi aos 5, pelo Goiás, quando Iago Mendonça tentou o lançamento para Diego na ponta direita do ataque. A zaga remista apareceu e conseguiu interceptar o lance.

VOLTANDO PARA O JOGO?

O Esmeraldino conseguiu chegar com perigo em duas jogadas. Aos 10, depois de cobrança de escanteio, David Duarte cabeceou. A zaga do Remo, porém, afastou. Na sequência, Bicolas pegou o rebote, mas não conseguiu finalizar com qualidade.

QUEM NÃO FAZ, LEVA!

Mesmo com um primeiro tempo mais apagado, o Goiás conseguiu crescer na segunda etapa e não demorou muito para abrir o placar da Serrinha. Aos 17, Alef Manga mandou para Nicolas, que driblou e venceu os adversários, acertando um belo chute e balançando as redes.

PRESSÃO E EM BUSCA DO SEGUNDO…
O Goiás seguiu com tudo. Pouco tempo depois do primeiro gol, o time foi em busca de aumentar a vantagem. Assim, aos 30, Nicolas mandou para Alef Manga, que bateu de canhota e obrigou o goleiro Vinícius a fazer uma grande defesa. Na sequência foi a vez de David Duarte assustar. Após cobrança de escanteio, o zagueiro cabeceou com grande perigo.

TUDO IGUAL!

Ainda tentando encontrar uma maneira de segurar o Goiás, o Remo acabou tendo uma boa chance. Aos 37, Lucas Tocantins acabou sendo derrubado na área por Tadeu. O árbitro assinalou pênalti, que foi convertido por Renan Gorne. O Esmeraldino tentou responder com Bruno Mezenga. No entanto, o jogador estava impedido. No final do duelo, Dadá Belmonte levou vermelho por reclamação.

Manchester United have been dealt a blow as it has emerged that one of the targets that they have been pursuing for months now won't be arriving at Old Trafford.

Sir Jim Ratcliffe targets change

Since his arrival at Manchester United at the turn of the year, Sir Jim Ratcliffe has promised change. Backroom alterations have been made, but he opted to keep Erik ten Hag in charge after two weeks of interviewing other candidates.

Now, he has urged patience, telling fans that it will take time to complete the changes at the Theatre of Dreams and have the club challenging for the Premier League once more. It will take 'two or three summer transfer windows to get to a better place', he explained in a recent interview.

There have already been reports that almost all of the squad is up for sale this summer, while high-earning pair Raphael Varane and Anthony Martial have announced they will leave at the end of their contracts this summer. Casemiro is another player who seems set to depart, with Saudi Arabia interested in the Brazilian despite his tough end to the season in Manchester United red.

There is a desire to sign a defender too amid ongoing speculation around the future of Victor Lindelof, with the club having seen an opening offer for Jarrad Branthwaite turned down last week. Now, they have been dealt another blow.

Defender not moving to Old Trafford

This comes as Manchester United have been ruled out as a potential destination for OGC Nice defender Jean-Clair Todibo as a result of UEFA rules. Todibo, who has rebuilt his career in the south of France following a failed spell at Barcelona, appeared 30 times in Ligue 1 for Nice last season.

The Frenchman still has three years left to run on his £20,000 a week deal in Nice, but has been linked with a move away in recent months amid interest from the Premier League.

Manchester United were touted as a potential destination in a deal that seemed easy to do given INEOS' ownership of both the Red Devils and OGC Nice. However, Fabrizio Romano has now revealed that a deal is "currently off" and now "highly unlikely" because of UEFA rules, despite talks between all parties having been "advanced" for "months".

So what is this UEFA rule? Essentially, because both Nice and Manchester United are in the same European competition next season and run by the same owners, player trading between them is not permitted, something that Ratcliffe himself has since confirmed.

“They’ve said we can sell him to another Premiership club, but we can’t sell to Manchester United,” the United chief said in an interview with Bloomberg. “But that’s not fair on the player and I don’t see what that achieves".

That news also rules the Red Devils out of a move for Todibo's team mate and one-time rumoured target Khephren Thuram, who was thought to be of interest to the Red Devils and available for around £20m.

It comes as a blow to the Red Devils, though it does beg the question why they negotiated for months with the defender when the rule was already in place.
