According to Spanish newspaper Sport, as translated and relayed by Sport Witness, a transfer update has emerged concerning Liverpool and Barcelona defender Ronald Araujo.

The Lowdown: Reds eye Catalans raid?

Over this past week, Liverpool haven’t just been linked with a move for Araujo as other Barca stars reportedly attract the interest of Fenway Sports Group and manager Jurgen Klopp.

It is believed that the La Liga giants’ latest breakthrough rising star Gavi, who recently become the youngest ever debutant for Spain, is also on the Reds’ wish list.

Sources state they are even willing to trigger his €50 million (£42m) release clause as Klopp seemingly eyes a Catalan raid.

Bringing the latest, Sport (via SW) has some news concerning another target from Barcelona in Araujo.

The Latest: Liverpool make Araujo contact…

According to the newspaper, Araujo has ‘has been approached’ by Liverpool as Klopp eyes his potential signing in the summer amid his contract dispute.

The defender’s current deal expires in 18 months, giving Barca and president Joan Laporta just two transfer windows to either sell for a fee or agree a renewal.

An extension offer has been put forward to Araujo by the club, but it is apparently below expectation as the Reds lurk.

The Verdict: Get it done?

Depending on whether the Uruguay international puts pen to paper on a new deal, Araujo could come as an astute centre-back option for Klopp at Anfield.

Still only 22-years-old, Araujo is versatile enough to play as a right-back as well as in the centre of defence – potentially gifting the Reds some strength in depth behind Trent Alexander-Arnold.

Described as a defender who ‘has everything’ by illustrious Barca legend Gerard Pique, the European giants apparently value Araujo at around €45m (£38m).

As the clock ticks down on the South American’s current deal, you could even assume his club may be forced to accept less depending on contract developments.

La Liga expert and former Arsenal striker Kevin Campbell believes he is certainly worth the Liverpool plunge, recently explaining to Football Insider how Araujo would be a ‘great signing’.

Indeed, there are plenty of incentives to move as Klopp and FSG watch his Camp Nou situation curiously ahead of a summer swoop.

Apesar do placar mínimo, Roger Machado elogiou a inteligência do Palmeiras em Ribeirão Preto (SP). Sob um forte calor, segundo ele com sensação térmica de 40ºC, o time soube quando acelerar e quando cadenciar o ritmo da vitória sobre o Botafogo-SP, por 1 a 0.

-No primeiro tempo, o adversário em muitos momentos conseguiu nos contra-atacar pelo fato de a gente insistentemente tentar uma bola frontal para dentro da linha defensiva do adversário. Depois da parada (técnica) consegui corrigir este nosso movimento, empurramos o Botafogo para trás e foi quando conseguimos mais controle do jogo, que continuou no segundo tempo – analisou o treinador.

-No fim de jogo tivemos quatro contra-ataques bons, que poderíamos ter definido, mas a perna já não obedece o comando. Você toma uma decisão diferente do que tomaria mais descansado. Não se administra jogo, mas vencemos porque fomos inteligentes. Com um calor muito grande, a gente soube entender o que o jogo precisava, não dava para acelerar a todo momento, tinha de dosar e este foi o ponto alto que eu gostaria de ver sempre. Entender o que o jogo pede – acrescentou.

Neste início de trabalho, o técnico tem apostado em Borja e nesta tarde foi do centroavante o gol da vitória. Disposto a fazer o colombiano ter um ano diferente daquele em sua chegada, Roger considera que o resultado dá força ao que tem pedido para o jogador nos treinos.

-Para mim é muito importante (o gol do Borja), porque reforça o que tenho falado com o Borja no início do ano, da participação dele nos dois momentos do jogo, jogando e defendendo. Para mim era importante de o Borja fazer gols, para comprovar o que dizemos não só para ele, mas para os jogadores que tenho de lado, muito ofensivos e vão nos dar muitas chances de gol, mas preciso de uma equipe equilibrada. E isto aconteceu no segundo tempo, quando sofremos menos, porque controlamos melhor os espaços e isto para mim é bastante importante. Todos ficamos felizes com o Borja. Ano passado foi um ano de adaptação a um novo país, nova cultura. Agora as coisas começam bem – completou o treinador.

Com seis pontos em duas rodadas, o Verdão é o líder do Grupo C. O Novorizontino e o São Bento, ambos com quatro, vêm atrás, enquanto a Ferroviária, com dois pontos, é a lanterna. O próximo jogo do Palmeiras será na quinta-feira, contra o Red Bull, no Allianz Parque.

Principal contratação do São Paulo para a temporada, o meia-atacante Diego Souza está liberado para estrear com a camisa de seu novo clube. No mesmo dia que teve sua rescisão com o Sport publicada no BID (Boletim Informativo Diário) da CBF, o atleta teve seu novo contrato publicado no sistema e tem condições de fazer seu primeiro jogo já no sábado (20), contra o Novorizontino, no Morumbi.

A diretoria são-paulina fez um grande esforço para conseguir contratar Diego Souza. O jogador, que briga por uma vaga na lista do técnico Tite para a Copa do Mundo da Rússia no meio do ano, era o principal nome do elenco do Sport e o clube pernambucano fez jogo duro. Ao todo, o Tricolor desembolsou R$ 10 milhões para ter o meia-atacante pelas próximas duas temporadas, com possibilidade de renovação por mais um ano.

Com a publicação do nome de Diego Souza no BID, o técnico Dorival Júnior pode escalar o time com seu novo camisa 9, Jucilei e Anderson Martins como titulares. Isto porque, a dupla também teve seus respectivos contratos regularizados nesta quarta (17) e estão à disposição da comissão técnica para enfrentarem o Novorizontino.

Leeds United could look to replace Marcelo Bielsa with his former assistant, should he leave at the end of his current contract…

What’s the word?

According to the Telegraph’s Mike McGrath, Carlos Corberan – who is now in charge of Championship outfit Huddersfield Town – features on an initial three-man shortlist alongside former RB Leipzig head coach Jesse Marsch and ex-Barcelona manager Ernesto Valverde.

The 66-year-old has only five months remaining on his contract at Elland Road but the club are hoping that he stays for his fifth season at the helm, though we will not know of his intentions until the summer.

Should they need to seek a replacement, director of football Victor Orta and co will be well prepared. All three names have similarities to the 66-year-0ld.

Bielsa 2.0

None more so than Corberan, who worked as the Argentine’s assistant for two years before catching his first senior managerial break in England at the nearby Terriers.

The 38-year-old has endured a mixed time in charge, managing only a 33.7% win rate but large parts of that were trying to steer them to safety last season. He now has them on the cusp of a spot in the play-offs heading into the second half of the season.

Indeed, the Yorkshire club sit in fifth place, but only four points separate them to mid-table.

Corberan was part of the coaching staff when Leeds were promoted from the Championship in 2020, so he knows all about Bielsa’ system and methods, so if it’s another version of the Argentinian they want, then his former assistant is surely best suited.

“Under Marcelo, it is impossible not to learn things because all the time he is thinking about the team and how to improve the team and the players,” he said (via the Daily Echo). “The possibility to spend two years working with him was something special and something I appreciate a lot.”

Bielsa once dubbed his counterpart “very important” to their success as he helped groom the U23 setup to ensure they were playing in a similar way to the first-team squad.

He also said that the Spaniard was “very talented” and was someone that he values the opinion of more than himself, so that only goes to show the sort of influence he had in the dressing room during his time at Elland Road.

The similarities are understandably quite clear.

“I love to illuminate the game. Try to control games with the ball, try to keep the ball all the time, try to dominate,” Corberan told The Athletic. “Of course, your ideas change over time, but when I analyse the behaviour of players I look for those who can illuminate the game.”

It remains to be seen whether Bielsa will stay on for a fifth successive season but his former assistant would certainly be an intriguing option to replace him.

In terms of familiarity with his tactics and this squad, there may be no-one better.

Paul Collingwood shone with the ball on his first Durham appearance of the season before rain wrecked their Friends Provident t20 match with Derbyshire

Paul Collingwood shone with the ball on his first Durham appearance of the season before rain wrecked their Friends Provident t20 match with Derbyshire.England’s World Twenty20-winning captain conceded only 21 runs from his four overs, but the Dynamos were still facing a daunting run chase after the Falcons plundered 172 for 3 from 19 overs. Loots Bosman scored his second half century in the competition and former Somerset batsman Wes Durston hit two sixes and seven fours in an unbeaten 71 from 53 balls.Derbyshire were only five short of their biggest Twenty20 score at Derby before rain forced the umpires to take the players off the field and resulted in the North Group match being abandoned. Collingwood was the only bowler to trim the Falcons’ wings as his two England team-mates Steve Harmison and Liam Plunkett came in for some rough treatment.Plunkett went for 18 off one of his four overs which cost 40 while John Sadler dispatched Harmison for two sixes in three balls over mid-wicket before the rain arrived. Durston followed his explosive century at Trent Bridge on Friday with another impressive display of clean hitting in an opening stand of 89 with Bosman.The South African cut Harmison for six and also smashed nine fours in a 32-ball 57 before he was run out going for a second by Plunkett’s throw from long on in Collingwood’s first over. Although Durston lifted Collingwood over long on for six, it was the only boundary off the England all-rounder who cleverly took the pace off the ball to restrict the batsmen.But the rest of the Dynamos attack suffered as Greg Smith and Robin Peterson also cleared the ropes to take the Falcons to what was their second highest Twenty20 total on home soil. It would have tested even Durham’s formidable line-up of big hitters but with no sign of an improvement in the weather, umpires Nigel Long and Michael Gough called the match off at 5.20pm with both sides taking a point.

Alex Hales returned to haunt Durham by smashing an unbeaten 96 in Nottinghamshire’s five-wicket Clydesdale Bank 40 triumph at Chester-le-Street

25-Jul-2010
Scorecard
Alex Hales returned to haunt Durham by smashing an unbeaten 96 in Nottinghamshire’s five-wicket Clydesdale Bank 40 triumph at Chester-le-Street.On his last visit to the ground, 21-year-old Hales held a controversial boundary catch which turned a Twenty20 match in his side’s favour. He insisted the catch was clean and Dale Benkenstein, who was on 40, took his word for it when a six had been signalled.This time Hales was dropped on two by Gareth Breese at slip off Chris Rushworth and went on to see Nottinghamshire to victory with 4.1 overs to spare. It looked like being even more comfortable when Hales and Samit Patel were putting on 86 in 13 overs. But, with only 25 needed off 10 overs, Patel was stumped for 46 and then David Hussey fell for a duck, brilliantly caught above his head by Phil Mustard off a steeply-rising ball from Mitch Claydon.The same combination accounted for Steve Mullaney, attempting a big pull, before Hales guided Liam Plunkett to third man for his ninth four to go with a six pulled off the same bowler. His runs came off 113 balls. Patel joined Hales at 71 for two in the 16th over and was soon timing his drives well enough to suggest Durham could not blame a sluggish pitch for their struggles.In an otherwise dismal display by Durham, Gordon Muchall made 77 in a total of 181 for 8, which was nowhere near enough to prevent them from suffering their third successive defeat in this competition.Even skipper Mustard, the fourth man out after trying to hold things together, was never able to time the ball in making 29 off 58 balls with one four – a leg glance off Paul Franks’ first ball.That was in the ninth over and Durham did not hit another boundary until the 24th, when Ian Blackwell drove past mid-off. Shortly afterwards he offered a return catch off the first ball sent down by Patel, who had come on for the last two balls of an over when Luke Fletcher limped off.Mustard lost patience in the 22nd over, when he went down the pitch and was bowled by Graeme White, and in the left-arm spinner’s next over Muchall gave his only chance when deep mid-off got his right hand to a firmly-struck drive.That signalled the start of Muchall’s acceleration and he drove two successive balls from White for four in the 26th over, adding a boundary clipped wide of long-on to his tally just before reaching 50 off 73 balls. Durham scored 15 off the 37th over, bowled by Franks, but managed only 15 runs off the remaining three overs as Muchall lofted a return catch to Mullaney.

Em sua segunda passagem pelo Cruzeiro, o atacante Fred marcou pela primeira vez, neste sábado. No duelo entre a Raposa e o Tombense, pela quarta rodada do Campeonato Mineiro, o centroavante balançou as redes e empatou a partida. O gol do camisa 9 contribuiu para a reação do time celeste, que acabouvirando o placar, aos 30 do segundo tempo.

O artilheiro já tinha feito três jogos oficiais desde o início do ano, mas foi só na partida deste sábado que o atacante desencantou. Com passagens pela Raposa entre 2003 e 2004, Fred soma 57 gols com o uniforme azul. O jogador comentou a sensação de voltar a marcar pelo Cruzeiro.

– Primeiro, pouco de alívio de poder dar alegria a esse torcedor, que estava mais ansioso do que eu. Gracas a Deus saiu em uma hora boa. A gente conseguiu uma vitoria importante, em um jogo difícil. Saiu a zica! Agora, é um atras do outro.

Fred também fez questão de enfatizar a participação fundamental do companheiro de equipe na jogada.

– Foi 90% gol do Arrasca. Só tive o trabalho de empurarrra pra rede. Eu acho que vai ser o ano inteiro assim, espero.

O meia, Thiago Neves, revelou que o elenco cruzeirense estava na torcida para que o camisa 9 marcasse pela primeira vez. O atleta também destacou o empenho do grupo na partida contra o Tombense.

– Tava na hora de fazer um golzinho. Todo mundo tava tentando, torcendo pra ele fazer o gol. Em um jogo difícil, Fred consegue fazer o gol dele e ajudar o time a virar.Acho que a gente mereceu o resultado pela intensidade que botamos no jogo.

O Cruzeiro terá um jogo importante semana que vem. A Raposaenfrentará o América, que também briga pela liderança do Campeonato Mineiro, no domingo. O confronto será no Mineirão, às 17h.

Wolverhampton Wanderers host Midlands rivals Leicester City this afternoon as they look to climb the Premier League table with European qualification still a very realistic target.

Bruno Lage’s side sit eighth in the top-flight after both Arsenal and Tottenham claimed victories yesterday, but can return to seventh place with victory over the Foxes.

The Portuguese manager also has a fully fit squad available for selection for the first time since he arrived at Molineux, but who will start this afternoon’s Midlands meeting?

Here is how Football FanCast thinks the Golden Boys will line up with two changes made.

As expected, there are no changes in the defence after another excellent display at the back last Sunday as Wolves secured a 2-0 away at Tottenham.

The favoured defensive trio of Romain Saiss, Conor Coady and Max Kilman is back after the former’s absence due to participation in the African Cup of Nations with Morocco, something Lage will be particularly delighted about.

In the midfield comes the first change as 19-year-old Luke Cundle drops out for veteran Joao Moutinho. Cundle was impressive on his full debut last week, but the return of one of Wolves’ key players after a two-match absence means that he’ll drop out.

It could be argued that the English youngster could take the place of Leander Dendoncker, but after the Belgian scored Wolves’ second against Spurs, it would be harsh to axe the 26-year-old.

The other change comes in attack, with Lage opting to use a 3-5-2 shape once again. Daniel Podence is yet to score in the league this season, and with Lage having a full roster to choose from, the £52k per-week Portuguese may be set for a spell on the bench. In the forward’s place comes Hee-Chan Hwang, who starts his first match in two-and-a-half months.

The South Korean returned from a hamstring injury last week with a brief cameo off of the bench in north London and should be ready to start against Brendan Rodgers’ side.

Hwang made a stellar start to his Wolves tenure, scoring four goals in his first six appearances for his then-loan club, with the 26-year-old’s move from RB Leipzig now permanent.

However, the forward hasn’t scored since late October, with a two-month absence being the main reason. Against a leaky Leicester defence, that duck could be broken on Sunday afternoon.

Every remaining game this season will be huge for Wolves as they look to secure European football. Having a fully fit squad available will certainly boost their bid.
