There are some doubts about Mike Maignan’s long-term future at AC Milan and the management might just have his replacement lined up already, a report claims.

When the New York Yankees acquired Juan Soto in a blockbuster trade this past winter, the overriding belief was that he’d hit free agency after the 2024 MLB season.

In no way did we think that contract talks between the Yankees and…
Dak Prescott’s contract extension continues to remain a mystery for America’s Team with neither party approaching the negotiation table as of yet. Most analysts assumed that the 30-year-old would be offered a new deal before the rush of free agency.

Leeds United face Norwich City at Elland Road in their Championship play-off semi-final on Thursday night and Daniel Farke has named his team with one change in West Yorkshirek One change has been forced upon Daniel Farke ahead of Leeds United’s decisive play-off semi-final second leg with Norwich City. Sam Byram is not with the squad, with Joel Piroe chosen as the man to replace him in the starting line-up.
