Newcastle eyeing Hamza Choudhury loan move

Having strengthened at the back with the signing of Kieran Trippier, followed by bringing in another striker in the shape of Chris Wood during the January transfer window, it seems as though Newcastle United are now keen on adding a midfielder to their ranks before the end of the month.

What’s the news?

According to a recent report from the Daily Mail, Newcastle and fellow Premier League side Watford are eyeing up a potential loan move for Leicester City midfielder Hamza Choudhury before the current transfer window comes to a close.

As a product of Leicester’s youth system, the 24-year-old has made 79 senior appearances for the Foxes across all competitions, chipping in with two goals and two assists along the way.

However, with only seven appearances across all competitions so far this season prior to Leicester’s Premier League home clash against Brighton today, a potential loan move to Newcastle could be tempting for the former England under-21 international if he would be guaranteed regular playing time in Eddie Howe’s side.

The midfielder, who is currently earning £61k-per-week according to Salary Sport, has previously been praised by Leicester boss Brendan Rodgers for his “outstanding” performances for the Midlands club, possibly showing why the likes of Newcastle and Watford are interested in adding him to their squads this month.

Whenever the 24-year-old has featured for the Foxes, he has brought plenty of steel to their midfield, averaging 2.3 tackles and 2.3 interceptions per game. Both of those averages exceed anyone at Newcastle who plays in the same position, suggesting that he could be an upgrade on Howe’s current options in that regard.

Fans will be amazed

With the Tyneside club being linked with a move for Choudhury in the past before their current owners took over, the fans will surely be amazed to see that the Magpies are seemingly once again interested in bringing the Leicester ace to St James’ Park, especially given his impressive performances whenever he has played.

Moving forward, with Newcastle fighting to avoid relegation this term, it would be worth adding as many options as they can to improve their squad before the end of the month to help Eddie Howe in his endeavours, just as the owners have done with the acquisitions of Trippier and Wood.

In terms of Choudhury, despite predominantly playing in midfield, he has shown on occasion that he is capable of operating in defensive positions as well. That is the sort of versatility which could be useful for Newcastle throughout the remainder of the season, especially if they can make better use of him than Leicester seem to be doing in recent months.

Young Buck leaves Derbyshire struggling

Nathan Buck underlined his promise with the best figures of his fledgling career to give Leicestershire the upper hand at Derby

ScorecardNathan Buck took four wickets to earn Leicestershire a valuable lead•Getty Images

Nathan Buck underlined his promise with the best figures of his fledgling career to give Leicestershire the upper hand at Derby. The 18-year-old fast bowler took 4 for 44 in 15 overs as Derbyshire were bowled out for 207, despite half-centuries from Greg Smith and Robin Peterson, to trail on first innings by 72.Will Jefferson and Paul Nixon went cheaply when Leicestershire batted again but by the close they had moved to 83 for two, a lead of 155. Derbyshire went into the second day 239 runs adrift and had shaved just a single off their arrears before Buck struck with the fifth ball of the morning.Wayne Madsen edged the first ball he faced to second slip and Garry Park losthis off stump aiming a lavish drive at Buck. When Dan Redfern also drove carelessly at Matthew Hoggard and was caught behind, Derbyshire were in deep trouble at 73 for 5.Peterson is a useful batsman to have coming in at number seven with six first-class hundreds behind him, and he showed why Derbyshire believe he will make them a stronger team this season. The former South Africa Test all-rounder played a measured innings which featured some handsome straight drives, and with Smith also displaying sound judgement, the sixth-wicket pair batted into the afternoon session before they were parted.Smith hit eight fours in his second fifty of the season and Peterson’s maiden half-century for Derbyshire included six boundaries, but Claude Henderson snared them both in consecutive overs. He had Peterson caught behind for 54 to end a stand of 94 in 31 overs, and then Smith went for the same score, caught at short leg off bat and pad.Henderson has started the season well, taking six wickets in the first innings of the previous game against Northants, and he had another victim when Tim Groenewald missed a big mow across the line and was lbw. Buck had plucked out Lee Goddard’s off stump with a rapid ball in the previous over but Leicestershire were frustrated by a last-wicket stand between Steffan Jones and Mark Footitt. The pair added 33, helped by two poor pieces of fielding by Hoggard, who brought himself back into the attack to bowl Footitt with a full-length ball.Jones pegged the visitors back by trapping Jefferson lbw for six and Nixon played round a straight one from Groenewald, but Matthew Boyce and James Taylor batted out the day in bright sunshine to leave Leicestershire well placed with two days to go.

São Paulo quer zerar dívida até 2019 e usar 50% das vendas em reforços

MatériaMais Notícias

Voltar a conquistar títulos e, ao mesmo tempo, ficar sem dívidas. Essa é a meta do São Paulo que, do ponto de vista econômico, sente que teve um bom ano em 2017, conseguindo R$ 156 milhões com a venda de atletas na temporada. E a ideia é manter-se negociando jogadores, mas não os titulares, e aplicar metade do que for arrecadado nas transações em reforços.

– Em discussão com a diretoria de futebol, com a aprovação do presidente, decidiu-se, primeiramente, manter ou elevar a capacidade do time de conquistar títulos, como sempre ocorreu com o São Paulo. Há prioridade no futebol, mas, ao mesmo tempo, responsabilidade financeira. Temos de balancear e decidimos que, do montante vindo de jogadores que foram vendidos, 50% serão reaplicados na compra de atletas – disse o diretor executivo financeiro Elias Barquete Albarello à rádio Globo.

Em meio às críticas a respeito do desmanche ocorrido no elenco ao longo da temporada, o presidente Carlos Augusto de Barros e Silva, o Leco, costuma defender-se citando a diminuição da dívida. Segundo Albarello, em 2017, ela foi reduzida em mais de R$ 60 milhões, e pode zerar em dois anos.

– A dívida total passou de R$ 142 milhões para R$ 80 milhões. O orçamento aprovado em dezembro do ano passado tinha como resultado um déficit de R$ 7,5 milhões e, agora, falamos em superávit de R$ 15 a R$ 20 milhões. Havia a previsão de captação de recursos, a maior parte de bancos, de R$ 70 milhões, e fizemos isso na ordem de R$ 25 milhões. Grande parte disso é resultante da venda de jogadores e do esforço na redução de despesas – falou o diretor financeiro.

– Nosso objetivo é zerar totalmente a dívida entre 2018 e 2019. Para isso, necessitamos de recursos. Contamos com as vendas de jogadores, mas sem desmantelar time. Podemos olhar para jogadores que não serão utilizados. Precisamos ser criativos e captar recursos, aumentar a busca por patrocínios, um novo contrato de fornecimento de uniforme. E é bom lembrar que não temos controle sobre a pretensão do atleta de ser vendido – prosseguiu,

Apesar do discurso de responsabilidade financeira, destinando o dinheiro da negociação de atletas para reforçar o elenco, Albarello admite que é possível que ocorram mais contratações já nos primeiros meses da temporada. Tudo influenciado pelo desempenho dentro de campo.

– A princípio, consideramos como conceito usar esses 50% das vendas, mas, evidentemente, dependendo da performance do time no Campeonato Paulista, se a diretoria de futebol e a comissão técnica identificarem a contratação de um, dois, três atletas, vamos fazer isso. Não está separado um valor especificamente para compra de jogadores, mas há um indicador razoável. Depende muito da necessidade, da posição, do tipo de atleta disponível no mercado. Precisaremos ser muito criativos para trazer atletas.

São Paulo faz proposta por Jucilei e chineses devem responder até terça

MatériaMais Notícias

O São Paulo já fez sua movimentação para ficar com Jucilei. O empréstimo do volante ao clube acaba no dia 31, mas o Shandong Luneng, time chinês que detém seus direitos econômicos, já tem em mãos uma oferta de compra do Tricolor por 1 milhão de euros (cerca de R$ 3,8 milhões) e deve dar resposta, no máximo, até terça-feira.

A informação da proposta foi dada primeiramente pelo Globo Esporte e confirmada pelo LANCE!O São Paulo formalizou a proposta e entregou a Joseph Lee, representante do clube chinês no Brasil. O Tricolor recebeu do empresário a informação de que a resposta será dada em até sete dias.

O valor é bem abaixo do que Jucilei e seus representantes estimavam – o próprio jogador estipulou que os chineses exigiram entre 5 e 6 milhões de euros (entre R$ 19 milhões e R$ 23 milhões). Mas o trunfo são-paulino é indicar aos asiáticos quanto economizarão nos salários de um jogador de 29 anos de idade até o fim de seu contrato, em maio de 2019.

O Shandong Luneng já está conformado em não ter mais Jucilei, mas a ideia inicial era conseguir mais dinheiro com o jogador, comprado por eles na metade de 2015 por 8,5 milhões de euros (cerca de R$ 30 milhões na época). Contudo, a expectativa é de que os chineses, no máximo, peçam um valor um pouco superior à oferta feita pelo São Paulo, mas nada muito acima, já que o próprio volante reitera seu desejo de ficar.

Caso acerte com os chineses, o Tricolor avança nas negociações por um novo contrato a Jucilei. Os representantes do jogador já estão cientes de que será necessário reduzir seus salários, e as conversas devem seguir a tendência de oferecer luvas para compensar. De qualquer forma, há otimismo em todos os lados da transação.

Bans have made Pakistan a 'laughing stock' – Akram

Wasim Akram has slammed the PCB’s decision to ban four of its players, saying it had made Pakistan cricket a “laughing stock in the world”

Cricinfo staff11-Mar-2010

Wasim Akram: “I have been hearing [Shoaib] Malik has been a disruptive influence since last year. If that is so, why was he kept in the team in the first place?”•AFP

Former Pakistan captain Wasim Akram has slammed the PCB’s decision to ban four of its players , saying it had made Pakistan cricket a “laughing stock in the world”, and recommended heavy fines instead. Akram was part of the inquiry committee that investigated Pakistan’s disastrous tour of Australia, whose findings led to the PCB’s decision, but he did not attend any of the meetings due to personal reasons.”These penalties have made Pakistan cricket a laughing stock in the world,” Akram told AFP. “You don’t ban players for such problems. Had I attended any meeting or given recommendations I would have suggested fines, but not bans.”The Pakistan board banned Younis Khan and Mohammad Yousuf from playing for Pakistan in any format for an indefinite period, while handing out one-year bans to Shoaib Malik and Rana Naved-ul-Hasan. Shahid Afridi and the Akmal brothers were fined Rs2-3 million [$24,000-35,000] for various misdemeanours and put on six-month probations.Akram said Younis and Yousuf were valuable to the team in both Tests and ODIs and their unavailability for selection would damage the 2011 World Cup campaign. “What I suggest to PCB is to stick with heavy fines, but don’t implement the bans because we still need Yousuf and Younis in Tests and one-day cricket. With the World Cup in 2011 so close, this decision will hurt our team badly.”The bans were handed down by an inquiry committee comprising former players Wasim Bari, Zakir Khan and Yawar Saeed, besides Wazir Ali Khoja, a member of the PCB governing council, and Taffazul Rizvi, the board’s legal advisor. The committee looked into reports from former coach Intikhab Alam, manager Abdul Raqeeb and newly appointed coach Waqar Younis, who was the bowling consultant during the Australia tour.Akram, however, said that this was not how disciplinary problems should be resolved and that it was the duty of the team management to deal with them. “Pakistan cricket is in turmoil,” Akram said. “We are anyway not playing [international] cricket [at home] for security reasons and this will further embarrass our players. No board in the world deprives cricketers of their livelihood. If there were discipline problems, it was the duty of the captain Yousuf, coach Intikhab Alam and manager Abdul Raqeeb to deal with them.”I have been hearing since last year that Malik has been a disruptive influence. If that is so, why was he kept in the team? Pakistan has already been weakened by various problems and this will further hit it badly. We can’t even find 11 good players because of lack of talent in the country.”

تكريمًا لـ بنزيما.. كريستيانو رونالدو يقرر حضور حفل الكرة الذهبية

على عكس العام الماضي، يعتزم النجم البرتغالي كريستيانو رونالدو مهاجم مانشستر يونايتد، حضور حفل الكرة الذهبية 2022.

ويقام حفل الكرة الذهبية “بالون دور” يوم الإثنين المقبل، في مسرح دو شاتليه في العاصمة الفرنسية باريس.

وبحسب ما أكدت صحيفة “لوباريزيان” الهداف البرتغالي سيحضر الحدث تكريما لزميله كريم بنزيما مهاجم ريال مدريد.

وتجمع رونالدو وبنزيما صداقة منذ أن كانا سويًا في صفوف ريال مدريد، وقد يتم تتويج بنزيما للمرة الأولى في حياته المهنية، بصفته الفائز.

من غير المرجح أن يتواجد كيليان مبابي، بالنظر إلى عاصفة الأخبار الأخيرة التي جعلت الفرنسي يوشك على مغادرة باريس سان جيرمان.

ويتنافس 30 لاعبًا على الكرة الذهبية ومن بينهم رونالدو بالإضافة للمصري محمد صلاح جناح ليفربول، مع غياب الأرجنتيني ليونيل ميسي جناح باريس سان جيرمان. 

ومن المرجح بنسبة كبيرة تتويج بنزيما بالكرة الذهبية لموسم 2022، وقد كشفت تسريبات عن ذلك في وقت سابق. 

Aston Villa must complete Gomez transfer

With a loan move for Philippe Coutinho and a permanent deal for Lucas Digne already secured this month, Aston Villa and Steven Gerrard have been making no qualms in terms of flexing their finances and ability to attract players.

Looking ahead to the remainder of the window, one player that the Villans have been linked with in recent weeks that would certainly be an attractive prospect for Gerrard to have in his team and improve them is Liverpool centre-back Joe Gomez.

Gomez joined Liverpool back in the 2015 summer transfer window from Charlton Athletic in a deal worth a reported fee of £3.5m.

Since then, the Englishman has made a total of 131 appearances across all competitions for the Merseyside club, winning the Premier League and Champions League along the way.

Labelled as an “unbelievable” player by fellow Reds defender Trent Alexander-Arnold, Gomez has found regular game time hard to come by this season, particularly in the Premier League with just three substitute appearances under his belt.

This suggests that should Villa make an approach to Gomez and his representatives this month over a potential deal, perhaps the promise of regular playing time under Gerrard’s guidance would be tempting for the defender.

From Villa’s point of view, they have a space in their squad for a player like the England international given how they recently said goodbye to Axel Tuanzebe after his loan deal was cut short by Manchester United.

Someone of Gomez’s calibre could well rival the likes of Ezri Konsa, Tyrone Mings and Kortney Hause for a place in the starting XI, thus sealing Gerrard a dream deal. He has already sealed one player who used to be at his former employers and bringing in another individual well known to him would surely be ideal, especially when it comes to building a working relationship.

Speaking of Mings, in a recent poll ran by Football FanCast, 66% of Villa fans think the England international is a liability for the team after his shaky performance in their 3-1 defeat against Chelsea, where he was at fault for Romelu Lukaku’s goal, further highlighting the need for a new defender to come in this month.

As for Gerrard, someone with obvious connections at Liverpool, it would undoubtedly be a dream move for him to have someone like Gomez in his side that has experience of playing at the top level under a manager such as Jurgen Klopp to potentially improve him even further.

Before the window closes, Villa should definitely test the waters to see if Gomez would be willing to make the move to the Midlands and if the Anfield outfit would be willing to let their £22.5m-rated centre-half go halfway through the season.
