Sunderland: Transfer target Marcus Maddison leaves Peterborough

Sunderland could revive their interest in Marcus Maddison this summer after he left League One rivals Peterborough.

Sunderland and Peterborough both missed out on promotion to the Championship in the 2019/2020 season and they are set for a summer that will sees multiple players come in and leave.

The Black Cats currently have 11 players free to leave the club come June 30 as their current contracts come to an end, and manager Phil Parkinson will have his work cut out to replace the likes of Chris Maguire and Jon McLaughlin.

Peterborough, who will also see some players leave, have allowed Maddison to depart the club along with six other players.

Maddison ends a six-year spell at Peterborough which saw him spend time on loan with Championship side Hull City for the second half of the 2019/20 season. During his time with the Tigers, the midfielder scored one goal in seven games, whilst he scored nine goals and supplied six assists for Posh during the first half of the season.

Now that the 26-year-old is available on a free, Sunderland are expected to reignite their interest and it could prove to be a match made in heaven for the player, who supported the Black Cats as a kid.

Chronicle Live touch on the previous interest shown by the Wearside club, whilst also noting that Hull could offer Maddison a short-term deal to help them finish the Championship season, which is due to resume this coming weekend.

Maddison’s form in the latter months of 2019 shows that he can be a very effective presence at League One level and, with Sunderland set to have their squad decimated, new signings will soon become a matter of urgency for Parkinson.

The Black Cats could do a lot worse than bringing in a proven player in this division, all the more so now that he is available on a free transfer.

Sunderland: Rangers swoop to sign Jon McLaughlin

Scottish Premiership side Rangers have made a late move for Sunderland keeper Jon McLaughlin who was expected to sign for Blackburn Rovers.

The Black Cats’ failed to gain a return to the Championship this summer after the English Football League opted to end the 2019/2020 League One season via a points-per-game system.

Phil Parkinson’s side are now expected to undergo a whole host of changes in the summer transfer window in what they hope will be a successful campaign next term.

Scottish ‘keeper McLaughlin will see his current contract expire at the end of June and he has been linked with a move to Championship side Blackburn Rovers .

A regular for the Wearside club this term, making 32 League One appearances and keeping 11 clean sheets, whilst conceding just 27 goals, McLaughlin will be a huge loss to Parkinson if he does not agree a new deal to stay at the Stadium of Light.

And, that is now looking extremely likely as Rangers have joined Blackburn with interest as they look to find a replacement for Wes Foderingham.

Football Insider claim that Rangers boss Steven Gerrard is keen to find an established back-up keeper to Allan McGregor and that McLaughlin has been identified as the man to fill the void.

From a Sunderland point of view, McLaughlin has gone. The club’s lack of promotion is likely to backfire on them in the coming weeks as players look to depart, some on free transfers and the Scottish stopper is one of those.

A move to either Blackburn or Rangers is a step up simply to good to turn for the 32-year-old, particularly at his age, and you have to feel that the latter would be his preferred choice given the sheer size of the club and the fact that they can also offer European football.

Where do you think McLaughlin will end up this summer? Let us know in the comments section below…

Por Copa do BR, Santos tenta atrasar apresentação de trio à Seleção

MatériaMais Notícias

O jogo contra a Ponte Preta, no sábado, às 18h30, deveria ser o último de Zeca, Thiago Maia e Gabigol antes deles servirem à Seleção Brasileira na Olimpíada, já que a data de apresentação na Granja Comary, em Teresópolis, no Rio de Janeiro, é o dia 18, segunda-feira.No entanto, o Santos fez um pedido para a CBF para que o trio seja liberado para jogar contra o Gama, pela Copa do Brasil, na quarta-feira, dia 20, às 21h45, no Bezerrão.

– Acho que não interferiria nos treinamentos, só retardariam na reapresentação, temos jogo importante na Copa do Brasil e seria fundamental que eles estivessem conosco – disse o técnico Dorival Júnior após o empate entre Palmeiras e Santos nesta terça-feira.

Desta forma eles se apresentariam ao técnico Rogério Micale na quinta-feira, logo após a partida, mas a CBF ainda não respondeu.

O pedido foi feito pelo técnico Dorival Júnior, pois desta forma teria os três titulares para tentar montar um time misto em Brasília, já que quatro dias depois, o Alvinegro vai a Salvador encarar o Vitória já pela 16 rodada do Brasileirão.

A diretoria do Peixe está pessimista quanto à liberação pois não foi atendida em uma semana.

Caso o trio se apresente à Seleção Brasileira na data marcada, Dorival Júnior terá que montar um quebra-cabeça se não quiser usar Caju, Yuri e Copete, os prováveis substitutos de Zeca, Thiago Maia e Gabriel, respectivamente.

Nas duas primeiras fases da Copa do Brasil, o Santos jogou contra Santos do Amapá e Galvez-AC com equipes reservas. Inclusive, nem o próprio técnico Dorival Júnior viajou para Macapá e Rio Branco, pois permaneceu na Baixada Santista para comandar os titulares. Em seu lugar, foi o auxiliar Lucas.

A resposta da CBF, mesmo que negativa, deve ser dada até sexta-feira, até o fim do expediente.

وشدد مدرب أتلتيكو مدريد: “أتلتيك بيلباو فريق قوي، سنرى كيف يتعافى اللاعبون وصباح الغد سنقرر من يبدأ في التشكيل”.

Manchester United: Red Devils ready to challenge Chelsea after they change their minds on Declan Rice

Manchester United are ready to challenge Chelsea after reigniting their interest in West Ham’s Declan Rice, according to Football Insider. 

Rice was previously on Chelsea’s books before he decided to move to West Ham and he has established himself as a fully-fledged England international during his time at the London Stadium. Chelsea are keen to bring their academy graduate back to Stamford Bridge, but the Red Devils have now entered the race to sign him in the summer.

The 21-year-old, who plays as a defensive midfielder, has played 35 games in the Premier League this season, supplying two assists, winning 3.1 tackles per game, averaging 1.9 interceptions, and successfully completing 1.3 clearances per game on average (via WhoScored).

Rice can also be deployed in the back line and his versatility could prove useful wherever he ends up.

The Englishman, who is best friends with Chelsea’s Mason Mount, has been one of the few highlights in a difficult season for the Hammers, as they find themselves embroiled in a relegation battle at the bottom of the table.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer doesn’t have a shortage of midfielders at Manchester United, as he can call upon the likes of Paul Pogba, Scott McTominay and Fred. However, Nemanja Matic remains the club’s only designated defensive midfielder, which could become a problem in the future as he isn’t getting any younger.

Given his young age, Rice could turn out to be a shrewd investment, as his valuation is likely to increase if he can maintain his solid form. Even if he is signed and the move doesn’t work out as hoped, Solskjaer would still have gained a valuable asset, as he is currently valued at £44.5m via Transfermarkt.

Leeds eye audacious swoop for "special" 23-goal sensation

Leeds United appear to be closing in on an audacious swoop for one of Europe’s most coveted strikers after fresh reports emerged over the weekend.

What’s the word?

According to Gent chairman Ivan De Witte in an interview with De Zondag, via Voetbalkrant, the Yorkshire giants have tabled a very decent offer for their in-demand talisman, Jonathan David.

Amid interest from Ligue 1 outfit Lille, he said: “The contacts came to a halt this week, but other clubs are actually interested. With much better proposals even. Including Leeds.”

The impressive 20-year-old striker has also been mooted with moves to Arsenal, Manchester United and Borussia Monchengladbach.

Reliable Belgian football journalist Kristof Terreur claims that Gent want at least €30m (£27m) to sell him this summer.

Forget JKA

It’s no surprise to see so many clubs keen on landing the Canadian international. He’s provided Gent with 23 goals and ten assists in 40 appearances, which includes games against Roma and Wolfsburg in the Europa League, via Transfermarkt.

Recruitment data analyst for League One outfit Peterborough, BA Analytics, has lauded the potential move, claiming that he “fits the Bielsa profile” and that he’s an “exciting” player.

Meanwhile, his national team head coach, John Herdman, has dubbed him the “Iceman,” he said: “He’s like an iceman. He’s able to slow it right down in the box, wait for the keeper to sit down, and pick his moments. That’s a real special quality in a striker.”

Another thing in favour of United is the fact that David has publicly admitted his desire to play in the Premier League.

Those at Elland Road are going to have to get used to these types of reports. Leeds are back in the big-time and they can kickstart life with a bang by landing David ahead of their new rivals.

تيمو فيرنر: الإصابة منعتني من تسديد ركلة ترجيح أمام أستون فيلا

أوضح لاعب فريق تشيلسي تيمو فيرنر السبب وراء عدم تنفيذه ركلة جزاء في مباراة الأمس أمام أستون فيلا في بطولة كأس رابطة الأندية الإنجليزية.

واستضاف ملعب ستامفورد بريدج مباراة الفريقين في إطار منافسات دور الـ32 من كأس الرابطة، حيث فاز تشيلسي بركلات الترجيح بنتيجة 4-3. أهداف مباراة تشيلسي وأستون فيلا

وكان الوقت الأصلي من المباراة قد انتهى بالتعادل الإيجابي بهدف لمثله، ليلجأ الفريقان إلى ركلات الترجيح، والتي حسمها تشيلسي لصالحه.

ولم يكن تيمو فيرنر ضمن المسددين لركلات ترجيح تشيلسي خلال مباراة الأمس، وهو ما أثار حيرة لدى المشجعين نظرًا لإنه يمتاز بقدرته على تنفيذ الركلات بشكل جيد.

وأوضح فيرنر السبب وراء ذلك، حيث قال في تصريحات نشرتها شبكة “فوتبول لندن” الإنجليزية: “لقد عانيت من بعض الألم في ربلة الساق، لكن مع وجود 3 بدائل فقط، لم أستطع الخروج”.

وأضاف اللاعب الألماني: “ولكن عندما يكون لديك لاعبون لائقون في الملعب، فمن الأفضل أن يسددوا بدلًا مني في المباراة”.
