Arsenal, Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur are set to do-battle over the signing of exciting Sunderland prospect Dan Neil, according to Sunderland Nation. The 22-year-old is having a blistering season with the Black Cats as they rally back towards the play-off places after starting the season poorly. Neil’s performances have put him on the radar of several top clubs in the Premier League. The winter transfer window will be a crucial month for Sunderland, with significant attention focused on whether the club can ward off interest in players like Neil, Daniel Ballard and Jack Clarke.

Khamzat Chimaev’s absence from the first UFC middleweight title fight of 2024 makes all the sense in the world after the top contender took to Twitter on Tuesday night. UFC 294 this past October saw not only the return of “Borz” in action for the first time since late 2022, but also his reinsertion into the 185-pound contender mix. The dominant undefeated 13-0 dynamo had been paired with one-time title challenger Paulo Costa before the Brazilian was dealt a nasty staph infection that led to his withdrawal. Instead, Chimaev went toe-to-toe with the former welterweight champion Kamaru Usman and picked…

With the holiday season in the rearview mirror and the new year underway, the deep freeze that has settled over free agency is likely to thaw in the coming weeks. Believe it or not, there are only about six weeks left before pitchers and catchers report to camps in Florida and Arizona, serving as a deadline of sorts and providing motivation for teams and unsigned players alike to ramp up negotiations. As we eagerly await the increase in activity, we’ve decided to play matchmaker and help find homes for some of the top free agents left on the board. Using…

Big picture: Bruised India out to salvage seriesThis South Africa Test tour was billed as the final frontier for India, and it continues to be unbreachable. Despite rain interruptions and South Africa losing their designated captain Temba Bavuma to injury, India lost the Boxing Day Test inside three days to crash to an innings defeat. As if that wasn’t bad enough, India were docked two WTC points for maintaining a slow over rate. The challenge will only get stiffer for them in the second Test at Newlands, where they have never won a Test in six attempts.The second-innings batting collapse…
By Rune Gjerulff @runegjerulff Should Borussia Dortmund manage to get a deal for Jadon Sancho over the line, a January exit for Donyell Malen would seem more likely. Photo: Sandro Halank, Wikimedia Commons, CC-BY-SA 4.0 Donyell Malen appears to be heading for the exit door at Borussia Dortmund, with a move likely either this month or in the summer. According to Fabrizio Romano, a January move is a “concrete possibility” following Malen’s decision to change his agency. Especially if Borussia Dortmund manage to reach an agreement with Manchester United to sign Jadon Sancho on loan, a move this month seems plausible…
