TOPHow many Commanders would start for the Eagles?
The news content discusses a comparison of players from the Washington Commanders against the reigning Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles, assessing which Commanders players could start for the Eagles in 2025. The analysis is structured by position: At quarterback, the author selects Commanders' Jayden Daniels over Eagles' Jalen Hurts, citing Daniels' greater upside. For running back, wide receiver 1, tight end, left guard, and right tackle, the Eagles retain the starting spot with no Commanders player deemed superior. At wide receiver 2, Commanders' Deebo Samuel is preferred over the Eagles' Smith due to Samuel's versatility and yards-after-catch ability. In the slot receiver position, either of the Commanders' McCaffrey or Lane is chosen over the Eagles' Dotson, whom the author labels a bust. For left tackle, Commanders' Tunsil is selected over the Eagles' Mailata, with the author noting Tunsil's superior pass protection outweighing Mailata's run-blocking strength in today's pass-heavy NFL. Center is considered a toss-up between the Commanders' Biadasz and the Eagles' Jurgens. At right guard, the Commanders' Cosmi is favored over the Eagles' Steen, as a healthy Cosmi is regarded as a top-10 player in that position.

TOPArsenal legend Santi Cazorla, 40, agrees new deal with boyhood club on minimum wage after promotion to LaLiga
Santi Cazorla, aged 40, has signed a new one-year contract with his boyhood club, Real Oviedo, agreeing to earn the La Liga minimum wage. This marks his continued stay after making an emotional return to the club in 2023, where he played a pivotal role in securing their promotion back to the Spanish top flight for the first time in 24 years. His contributions included scoring a stunning free-kick in the La Liga 2 play-off semi-final against Almeria and converting a penalty in the extra-time second leg of the final against CD Mirandes. Despite offering to play for free upon his return to the club where he was in the academy from ages eight to 16, league regulations required him to accept the minimum wage of £77,000 per year (£1,480 per week). Following Oviedo's promotion, he has again signed for the minimum possible amount. However, as La Liga's minimum wage is higher at £168,000 per year (£3,230 per week), this represents a £90,000 pay rise for Cazorla. This salary means Kylian Mbappe of Real Madrid will earn three times more in a single week than Cazorla earns in a year in the same league. Generously, Cazorla will donate 10% of his wage and shirt sales to Real Oviedo's academy. The club hailed his renewal, stating he is "a symbol and emblem of Oviedo" who embodies the club's values on and off the field, proving "dreams, when pursued with the heart, come true." Cazorla, who turns 41 in December, scored five goals and provided five assists in 35 games last season. The two-time European champion with Spain spent six years at Arsenal (180 appearances) before leaving in 2018. His career was nearly ended by a severe Achilles injury in October 2016, which required 11 operations. One operation led to gangrene, and doctors told him he should be satisfied just to walk again, let alone play professional football.

Baltimore Ravens Preview: Offensive Success Starts With Key Position Group
The Baltimore Ravens' offensive success during the Lamar Jackson era is attributed significantly to their consistently strong offensive line, enabling dominance on the ground and effectiveness through the air. While not perfect, the unit has been among the league's better groups. The Ravens possess excellent stability at tackle. Left tackle Ronnie Stanley returns after playing all 17 games in an exceptional 2024 season. Right tackle Roger Rosengarten, a 2024 second-round pick who started 14 games as a rookie, expressed confidence in making a significant leap in his second year, emphasizing offseason work on physical development and understanding the system. Questions primarily focus on the interior offensive line. While center Tyler Linderbaum is established as one of the league's best, earning Pro Bowl honors the last two seasons, both guard positions present concerns. Right guard Daniel Faalele returns after an inconsistent first season as starter. Left guard features an open competition between Andrew Vorhees, Ben Cleveland, rookie Emery Jones Jr., and others. Offensive line coach George Warhop stated a clear preference for naming a single starter at each position rather than using a rotation, emphasizing the ongoing competition. The Ravens' offense is projected to be among the NFL's best again, but its success remains fundamentally reliant on the performance of the offensive line unit.

Transfer Rumors Roundup: Post Club World Cup Edition
Borussia Dortmund has a transfer budget of approximately €40 million following their participation in the Club World Cup (CWC), excluding potential income from future player sales. The club is actively seeking to address squad gaps during the current period. Dortmund has shown interest in signing 22-year-old James McAtee from Manchester City and Johan Bakayoko from PSV Eindhoven. However, securing either player appears increasingly difficult. Nottingham Forest is linked with McAtee, while Bayer Leverkusen is reportedly leading the pursuit of Bakayoko. In more positive developments, Dortmund is currently negotiating with Chelsea regarding midfielder Carney Chukwuemeka. The discussions center around a potential loan deal that includes an option to buy, with the likely purchase price being €20-25 million. Dortmund is also looking to sell several players deemed surplus to requirements. The list includes Salih Ozcan, Sebastien Haller, and Gio Reyna. Additionally, Julian Brandt is entering the final year of his contract, and while the club is open to selling him, no offers have been received so far. Despite previous links to Juventus and other Italian clubs, forward Karim Adeyemi is now expected to stay at Borussia Dortmund. Reports indicate he is happy at the club, and no transfer talks have taken place this summer.

AFC Rival Gives Ravens' Lamar Jackson Bulletin Board Material
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson is widely considered one of the NFL's best, often ranked second only to Kansas City Chiefs' Patrick Mahomes. However, Chiefs defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo expressed a different view to Cincinnati Bengals' Joe Burrow on the Netflix show 'Quarterback,' telling Burrow he believes Burrow is the best quarterback in the league besides Mahomes. The article compares the two quarterbacks. Joe Burrow holds a better record against the Kansas City Chiefs (3-2, including playoffs) compared to Lamar Jackson's 1-4 record. Conversely, Jackson boasts significantly more individual accolades: two NFL MVP awards, three first-team All-Pro honors, and four Pro Bowl selections since being drafted in 2018. Burrow has two Pro Bowl nods and one Super Bowl appearance (a loss). Jackson also dominates the head-to-head matchup against Burrow, winning five of their six meetings as starting quarterbacks. The Ravens swept both games against the Bengals last season. The piece argues that while both quarterbacks are elite and deserving of immense respect, declaring Burrow as clearly superior to Jackson is incorrect. It suggests this perception could serve as motivation for Jackson, who has historically thrived on doubters. Jackson aims to lead the Ravens deeper into the playoffs this season, and continuing his success against Burrow and the Bengals would aid that goal.

AFC Notes: Lamar Jackson, Tony Khan, Jaguars, Ravens, Steelers
Jacksonville Jaguars Chief Football Strategy Officer Tony Khan announced that the role of wide receiver/cornerback Travis Hunter, the team's No. 2 draft pick, will be flexible and change weekly based on the game plan. Khan stated that Hunter will contribute significantly on both offense and defense, playing a lot of snaps, and his addition is exciting for the Jaguars' young core. Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson discussed the adjustments he's made to become a franchise quarterback, identifying leadership, specifically being more vocal, as an area he needed to develop. Jackson admitted he prefers leading by example through his play rather than giving motivational speeches but acknowledged coaches have pushed him to communicate more directly with teammates and voice his observations. Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker Patrick Queen expressed frustration with his performance during his first season with the team after signing a $41 million contract. Despite grading as the 125th linebacker out of 189 by PFF, Queen stated he holds himself to high standards and was aggravated by not playing the type of football he expected, taking full accountability for not being sufficiently prepared for the new system despite it being his fifth NFL season.

‘Uncertain Situation’—La Liga Chief Reflects on Barcelona’s Failed Nico Williams Move
La Liga president Javier Tebas stated that Nico Williams chose not to "risk" waiting for Barcelona to secure the necessary funds to register him this summer. Although Williams had agreed to personal terms with Barcelona and was reportedly keen on the move, doubts arose earlier this month due to concerns over Barcelona's ability to finance the transfer and register him within the squad. Williams subsequently rejected Barcelona's offer and instead signed a new long-term contract with his current club, effectively ending any possibility of a future transfer to Camp Nou. Tebas commented that, based on what he read, Williams had requested a registration guarantee which Barcelona, as a club, was unwilling to provide. Tebas believes Barcelona is facing a situation similar to previous seasons, where they sign players and wait until the last minute to finalize registrations. He suggested this uncertainty can deter top players who prefer not to take such risks. With Barcelona currently not operating under La Liga's 1:1 spending rule (allowing €1 spent for every €1 raised), they have now shifted their focus to other transfer targets, including Liverpool's Luis Díaz and Manchester United's Marcus Rashford. Tebas acknowledged that Barcelona is close to being able to complete such signings, stating, "I think Barcelona know exactly what they have to do and if they decide to move properly, they can sign players. It’s close, in my opinion." He added that the final step depends on whether Barcelona makes certain decisions to get closer to compliance.

Report – Inter Milan Squad’s WhatsApp Chat Reveals Obsession With Serie A Title Revenge
According to reports from Gazzetta dello Sport via FCInter1908, Inter Milan players are actively discussing their failure to win last season's Serie A title in their team WhatsApp group. While the squad is currently on vacation after a long season, their group chat has become dominated by reflections on the disappointing end to the league campaign. The players reportedly feel they "threw away" the title, specifically highlighting missed opportunities to overtake eventual winners Napoli. A key moment cited is their 2-2 draw against Lazio in the penultimate weekend of the season. This sense of regret has become a primary topic of conversation within the group. Consequently, the discussions have shifted focus towards the upcoming season, with the squad expressing a strong collective desire to prioritize reclaiming the Serie A title from Napoli above other competitions like the Champions League or Club World Cup. The players' shared obsession is reportedly centered on making amends for last season's failure.

Broncos given underwhelming record prediction for the 2025 NFL Season
The Denver Broncos significantly exceeded expectations in the 2024 NFL season by winning 10 games and reaching the postseason, despite widespread predictions of only 3-4 wins. This success was largely attributed to quarterback Bo Nix’s performance and head coach Sean Payton’s leadership. Following notable offseason roster additions, optimism surrounds the team’s prospects for 2025, with some analysts projecting them to win the AFC West and contend for the championship. However, NFL Network’s Adam Rank forecasts a more modest 11-6 record for the Broncos in 2025—just a one-win improvement from 2024. Critics argue that an 11-win season would actually be disappointing given the team’s strong finish in 2024 (winning 10 of their final 15 games) and Nix’s exceptional late-season form, which included a 45-touchdown pace over the last eight games. Combined with their offseason upgrades, many believe the Broncos are capable of achieving 12–14 wins, making an 11-6 prediction seem conservative relative to their upward trajectory.

‘Tyrell Malacia to Celtic is a great deal’ – Man United transfer nears
Celtic face significant challenges in competing with Eredivisie clubs to sign Manchester United left-back Tyrell Malacia this summer, according to former England goalkeeper Paul Robinson speaking on Football Insider's Inside Track podcast. Robinson expressed pessimism about Celtic securing Malacia either on loan or permanently. Malacia is among five Manchester United players seeking an exit this summer and is training away from the main squad as a result. Despite making only eight appearances for PSV during last season's loan spell, Robinson indicated multiple Dutch clubs hold an interest in the 25-year-old alongside Celtic. Celtic's need for a left-back follows Greg Taylor's departure to PAOK. However, Robinson stated the Scottish champions cannot financially compete with the Eredivisie suitors. Manchester United prefer a permanent sale over a loan due to Malacia having only one year left on his contract, but it's uncertain if Celtic want to permanently sign direct competition for the returning Kieran Tierney. Robinson specifically doubted Celtic's ability to match the wages Malacia could command elsewhere, particularly from Dutch clubs, calling it a "key sticking point." He believes Malacia, a "top quality player," will attract other suitors and that a move back to the Eredivisie seems more likely and financially appealing to him. While Celtic lost Taylor, Kieran Tierney's return provides an immediate upgrade and established starter at left-back. Furthermore, manager Brendan Rodgers has more pressing concerns in attack after losing Nicolas Kuhn (£17.3m to Como) and still needing to replace Kyogo Furuhashi. Rodgers' priority is strengthening the frontline, with Napoli's Giuseppe Ambrosino linked, rather than adding depth at left-back.

Tillman returns to the Bundesliga after completing Leverkusen transfer
Bayer Leverkusen have signed Malik Tillman from PSV Eindhoven for a reported club-record fee of €35 million. The 22-year-old US international returns to the Bundesliga, having previously spent three years at Bayern Munich, and has signed a contract with Leverkusen until 2030. Tillman joins after a successful season at PSV, where he made 34 appearances across all competitions in 2024-25, scoring 16 goals and providing 5 assists to help secure the Eredivisie title. He ranked second at PSV for dribbles completed (42) and joint-fourth for chances created (41) in the league. Remarkably, Tillman ended his PSV tenure with the highest win percentage (85.2% - W46 D4 L4) of any player with 50+ games in Eredivisie history. Leverkusen sporting director Simon Rolfes hailed the signing, stating, "We've gained another strong and very dangerous attacking player," and emphasized Tillman's versatility: "He can play in both the number 10 and the number 8 positions in midfield. Malik is an absolute top signing for us." Tillman also recently contributed significantly to the USMNT's Gold Cup run, scoring three goals and providing two assists before their final defeat to Mexico. The acquisition aims to fill the void created by Florian Wirtz's departure to Liverpool earlier this summer for a reported £116m (€135m). Wirtz was a pivotal figure under Xabi Alonso, making 119 appearances, scoring 38 goals, and providing 43 assists. He played a key role in Leverkusen's historic unbeaten domestic double (Bundesliga and DFB-Pokal) in 2023-24 and followed that with 30 goal involvements (16 goals, 14 assists) last season. He recorded the most assists for Leverkusen and was second only to Alex Grimaldo in chances created (91).

Real Madrid request to postpone opening 2025-26 La Liga match denied – Javier Tebas - The Athletic
La Liga president Javier Tebas confirmed that Real Madrid's request to postpone their opening match of the 2025-26 season against Osasuna, scheduled for August 19, has been denied. Madrid sought the delay due to their participation in the latter stages of the Club World Cup, which ended for them with a semi-final defeat to PSG on July 10, leaving 40 days before the proposed league opener. An agreement with the Spanish players' association (AFE) guarantees players three weeks of continuous holiday annually, meaning Madrid would have had only 18 days for pre-season preparation. Tebas stated that the Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) made the decision not to move the game, and La Liga agreed. He argued Madrid would have 20 rest days instead of 21, noting other leagues like the Premier League and Ligue 1 weren't changing fixtures for Chelsea or PSG, and deemed it a matter of "one day". Sources revealed that in May, Madrid and Atletico Madrid, along with their captains and in agreement with La Liga, RFEF, and AFE, secured a provision to postpone their first league fixtures if they reached the Club World Cup quarter-finals. The AFE cited health reasons and the need for at least three weeks of pre-season. Madrid, who played 68 games in 2024-25, have yet to schedule any pre-season matches. Madrid goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois publicly supported postponing the Osasuna match for player health reasons and criticized Tebas's stated desire to "eliminate" the Club World Cup. Courtois called Tebas's critical comments unusual compared to other league presidents and emphasized the competition's place on the FIFA calendar, stating "the players' health is on the line". The article also noted that Pep Guardiola said in October the Premier League denied similar postponement requests for Manchester City and Chelsea. City were knocked out on July 1, while Chelsea reached the final. Both Chelsea and City have Premier League openers scheduled for August 17 and 16 respectively.

Sources: “Fresh contact has been made” as Spurs eye €45m star after Kudus & Gibbs-White
Tottenham Hotspur are intensifying efforts to sign Crystal Palace defender Marc Guehi, having made fresh contact with his representatives after a January bid was rejected. Guehi, whose contract has 12 months remaining, is available for around €45 million, and the 24-year-old England international is open to a new challenge that guarantees consistent starting opportunities—a key factor in Tottenham's pitch. Despite competition from Chelsea, Arsenal, and Bournemouth, Spurs view July as critical for securing the deal. Arsenal cannot assure playing time, while Chelsea plans to approach after the Club World Cup, giving Tottenham an edge. Guehi's Premier League experience, leadership as Palace captain, and ambitions for the 2026 World Cup make him a prime target for Spurs' defensive rebuild. The pursuit gains urgency amid uncertainty over Cristian Romero's future, with Guehi positioned as an ideal replacement. Tottenham's Champions League qualification and trophy ambitions align with Guehi's career goals, offering a platform for silverware. Former England manager Gareth Southgate has lauded the "exceptional" defender, who enters his prime with favorable contract conditions enabling an affordable transfer. Guehi would follow Tottenham's recent signings of Mohammed Kudus and Morgan Gibbs-White, marking another high-caliber acquisition to strengthen the squad.

Tom Holland Watched Tottenham’s Europa League Win Between Shooting Scenes For The Odyssey
Tom Holland initiated a conversation about the journalist's vintage Tottenham Hotspur tie upon meeting them at a Chase Travel party during Wimbledon, revealing their shared support for the Premier League club. Their discussion focused primarily on Tottenham Hotspur, despite Holland being there to promote his nonalcoholic beer company. Holland recounted watching Tottenham end their 17-year trophy drought while filming Christopher Nolan's movie in Los Angeles. Due to a no-phones policy on set, he relied on updates from crew members and managed to catch the final 10 minutes of the game during a lunch break. The win energized him for filming a subsequent scene. He expressed bittersweet feelings about manager Ange Postecoglou's departure, acknowledging a rocky season with injuries but praising the achievement of winning a trophy (specifically the Europa League) in Postecoglou's second season. Holland stated he was proud to be a Tottenham fan. Holland was incredibly happy for Son Heung-min ("Sonny") winning a trophy after years of dedication to Tottenham, calling him a world-class player who stayed loyal to the club. He declared Son a Tottenham legend, regardless of his future decisions. Holland also mentioned the win likely meant a lot to Harry Kane, emphasizing their enduring friendship and Kane's deep love for the club. He fully supported Kane's move to Bayern Munich, viewing him as one of the world's best players and harboring no hard feelings about players seeking opportunities elsewhere. He extended this view to Trent Alexander-Arnold's move to Real Madrid, understanding the appeal of joining a top club. Holland described working on Christopher Nolan's upcoming film adaptation of the Odyssey (playing Telemachus) as the "job of a lifetime" and his "best experience on a film set." He praised it as exciting, different, and predicted the movie would be unique. He found working with Nolan and producer Emma Thomas "fantastic," admiring their work ethic and calling them the best in the business. Collaborating with and learning from Nolan was his best experience ever. He also expressed immense pride and gratitude for the opportunity to work with and become friends with his heroes, co-stars Matt Damon and Anne Hathaway, sharing scenes and learning from them.

Giorgio Scalvini's feelings become known about joining Newcastle United after £50m update
Newcastle United are actively pursuing the signing of Atalanta centre-back Giorgio Scalvini this summer, with manager Eddie Howe identifying the 21-year-old as a top defensive target. Despite Scalvini's recent injury concerns over the past 12 months, which have slightly diminished his market value, Newcastle remain keen to bring him to St James' Park. Although no formal offer has been submitted, negotiations are anticipated as both clubs express interest in a deal. Crucially, Scalvini is reportedly "open" to joining Newcastle, motivated by his desire to experience Premier League football after spending his entire career in Serie A. Should the transfer materialize, he would become Newcastle's sixth Italian Premier League player and reunite with international teammate Sandro Tonali. Financial considerations present a significant hurdle, as Atalanta demands at least £50 million – far exceeding Newcastle's initial £30 million valuation. This fee would make Scalvini the club's record defensive signing, surpassing Sven Botman's £35 million transfer. Newcastle envisions Scalvini as Botman's long-term partner in a defensive quartet including Tino Livramento and Lewis Hall. The final decision rests on whether Newcastle deem Scalvini worth Atalanta's asking price. If not, they will redirect their search for a right-sided centre-back elsewhere in the transfer market.

WATCH: Declan Rice creates his own Müller Rice flavour
Müller Rice has launched a new marketing campaign featuring Arsenal footballer Declan Rice. The campaign, created by agency VCCP, celebrates the introduction of a limited-edition white chocolate and raspberry flavour developed by Rice himself. VCCP collaborated closely with Rice's family and friends to develop the campaign. Its centerpiece is a hero advertisement starring Rice as the head chef at "Dec's Cafe," depicting him opening the cafe, unpacking deliveries, and preparing his new flavour. VCCP Creative Director George Wait highlighted Rice's active role, stating the footballer didn't just lend his name but deeply involved himself in sharing ideas, sampling, and refining the flavour. The ad concept aimed to showcase Rice working in a "classically cool café kitchen" and serving his creation. The campaign launches on Rice's and Müller's social media channels on July 17th, supported by behind-the-scenes content and teasers. It will also include in-store marketing and out-of-home placements near Asda stores and Arsenal hotspots. Production was managed by Status Creative, with design handled by Girl&Bear and support from Bernadette. Müller's Strategy and Marketing Director, Talar El Asswad, described the campaign as celebrating "the joy of the unexpected" and Rice's "fresh, down-to-earth energy," aiming to create a proper brand moment rather than just putting his name on the product. The limited-edition white chocolate and raspberry flavour will be available in Asda stores this week and roll out nationwide across other retailers starting in September.

Watch: New Barcelona signing arrives to sign contract
Swedish winger Roony Bardghji has arrived in Barcelona to finalize his transfer to the La Liga club. The 19-year-old youth international, whose name has been linked to Barcelona for several weeks, touched down in the Catalan capital on Friday ahead of signing his contract at the club's headquarters. Barcelona secured Bardghji on a cut-price deal late last month, ahead of the expiration of his contract with Copenhagen later this year. This arrival marks a significant step towards the official completion of the transfer. Upon landing and being approached by reporters at the airport, Bardghji expressed his excitement, stating: "I’m thrilled to sign with Barça, it’s a dream come true."

Derrick Henry Reacts to Cooper DeJean's Viral Tackle in 2024
Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry, renowned as one of football's most unstoppable forces, reacted to a viral clip showing him being tackled by Philadelphia Eagles rookie defensive back Cooper DeJean during a December 2024 game. Despite Henry's power and ability to steamroll defenders, he was surprisingly taken down immediately by the lighter DeJean after catching a short pass from quarterback Lamar Jackson. A clip of this tackle was shared by ESPN on NFL, prompting Henry to comment humorously, "Lol y’all funny." The Eagles won that game 24-19. Henry was held to 82 rushing yards on 19 carries, outperformed by Eagles running back Saquon Barkley who gained 107 yards and a touchdown on 23 carries. The article notes that Henry remains a formidable NFL player, suggesting the outcome of the tackle might have been different if he had momentum before DeJean reached him. It also mentions Henry's 2024 season performance: 1,921 rushing yards and 16 touchdowns on 325 carries, following a two-year, $30 million contract extension signed with Baltimore in May.

Kevin Clark: Lamar Jackson Faces Super Bowl Pressure
Paul Finebaum expresses enthusiasm for the upcoming "Arch-mania" surrounding quarterback Arch Manning. There is speculation that new Alabama head coach Kalen DeBoer "might have to win it all" to secure his long-term position with the Crimson Tide. A question is raised about whether quarterback Baker Mayfield provides the Tampa Bay Buccaneers with sufficient talent to be competitive contenders within the NFC. Dennis criticizes Colorado head coach Deion Sanders, labeling him "hypocritical" in relation to comments Sanders made about the NFL salary cap. The Phoenix Suns' decision to offer a long-term contract extension to star player Devin Booker is examined. Paul Finebaum states that Deion Sanders has already proven himself successful and therefore doesn't have anything left to prove as a coach. Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott is discussed in terms of potentially having a "monster year" in the upcoming season.

Christian McCaffrey's Pregnant Wife Turns Heads With 'Breathtaking' Photoshoot
Olivia Culpo, wife of San Francisco 49ers star Christian McCaffrey, has garnered significant attention with a recent photoshoot showcasing her pregnancy. The Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model shared a striking black-and-white image on Instagram, posing fully nude to highlight her baby bump. Accompanying the photo, Culpo described the experience as "the greatest privilege of my life," emphasizing how her body has become "a home" for their child. Culpo and McCaffrey, who began dating in 2019, announced their pregnancy earlier this year after marrying in Rhode Island in 2024. Their wedding previously sparked online debate due to Culpo’s custom Dolce & Gabbana dress, which received mixed reactions ranging from "timeless and elegant" to overly extravagant. The couple had gotten engaged in Utah in April 2023. In a May interview with People, Culpo expressed readiness and gratitude about impending motherhood, stating she felt "as ready as I will ever feel" while acknowledging pending practical preparations like packing a hospital bag. She reiterated her excitement about the pregnancy through this week’s social media post. Regarding parenting approaches, Culpo emphasized flexibility, noting she’ll maintain an "open-minded" philosophy tailored to her child’s personality. She cautioned that preconceived parenting plans often change, saying: "You can’t get ahead of yourself because you just never know... I’m definitely really excited to figure all of that out."

Brazilian clubs shine at Club World Cup, but questions remain
The FIFA Club World Cup held in Brazil was deemed a significant success, energized by massive local support that elevated the tournament beyond a mere preseason event. Brazil's four participating clubs became a national talking point, creating an atmosphere akin to a World Cup, but crucially highlighting domestic league players on a global stage instead of Europe-based stars. This tournament presented a major opportunity for Brazilian clubs, contrasting sharply with the often-embarrassing FIFA Intercontinental Cup where they typically struggled at the end of a grueling season. Hosting the Club World Cup in their mid-season, with fervent home support and specific peak preparation by teams like Flamengo and Palmeiras, put them in a favorable position. While the outcome was mixed – Botafogo sacking their coach soon after beating PSG, and Flamengo and Palmeiras facing internal issues after early exits while unfancied Fluminense reached the semi-finals – the overall balance for Brazilian football was positive. It proved Brazilian teams can compete at this level, symbolized by Fluminense's elimination coming via goals from their own youth product, João Pedro, now playing for Chelsea. The undeniable financial gap with top European football was starkly illustrated by transfer fees: Fluminense's record signing for the tournament was €6m, while João Pedro generated nearly €100m in transfers after leaving for €11.5m. Brazil continues to lose stars like Estêvão (to Chelsea), Igor Jesus (to Nottingham Forest), and Gerson (to Zenit). To counter this exodus, Brazilian clubs employ two key strategies. Firstly, they use transfer income to repatriate players from Europe, either seasoned veterans (like Thiago Silva returning to Fluminense) or those who didn't meet expectations.
