Howe struck gold on Newcastle ace who’s now worth more than Joelinton

da supremo: Eddie Howe's Newcastle United side were unable to replicate their impressive form from 2022/23, with the Magpies finishing the season seventh in the Premier League.

da brwin: However, compared to where they were just a couple of years ago, the club are on a clear trajectory, and with a team full of talented stars, it's only a matter of time until they start regularly challenging the so-called ‘big six’.

No Newcastle fan could’ve envisaged such a rapid transformation, with stars such as Alexander Isak and Bruno Guimaraes excelling for the Magpies and playing a crucial role in securing Champions League football last season.

The club have been reliant on shrewd business to take them to where they are today, with the aforementioned players playing a huge role in the club’s recent and unexpected success.

One player in particular has proven to be excellent business for the club, not in terms of his abilities under Howe, but for the profit he’s set to make the club in the near future.

Yankuba Minteh’s stats in 2023/24

Forward Yankuba Minteh joined the club on 1 July 2023 from Danish side Odense BK, before immediately joining Feyenoord on loan for the rest of the 2023/24 campaign.

Yankuba Minteh on loan at Feyenoord

The 19-year-old Gambian has scored ten times and produced six assists in his 27 appearances in the Eredivisie, as he looks to gain experience ahead of a potential first-team spot for Newcastle next season.

As demonstrated by his stats in the Netherlands this season, he clearly has a lot of talent despite his tender age, with Minteh having the potential to save the Magpies a lot of money in the long run.

However, as a result of his excellent form under newly appointed Liverpool boss Arne Slot, he’s attracted major interest from the Reds, with the Dutchman reportedly willing to spend £40m to secure his services this summer.

The figure reported is an obscene one, especially considering the fee Howe and the Saudi PIF formed out for his signature less than 12 months ago.

Yankuba Minteh’s transfer value in 2024

Less than a year on from his £6m move to St James’ Park, the Gambian has seen his market value soar as a result of his impressive loan stint, with his price tag rocketing above one current Newcastle first-team member.

According to Football Transfers, the youngster is now valued at €22.9m (£19m), an increase of 216% – a concrete example of the club’s recent success within the transfer market. As a result, Liverpool could significantly overpay for his services by acquiring him.

His subsequent value is higher than Brazilian Joelinton who’s now only priced at €18.3m (£15m) despite arriving on Tyneside for £40m back in the summer of 2019.

Despite potential rumours linking the youngster with a move away from St James' Park, they must keep hold of the attacker, with Minteh having the potential to be a first-team regular for many years to come.

Whilst the Gambian would allow for an easy sale to help their FFP situation, he could prove to develop further on Tyneside and catapult Howe’s side back into a battle for a Champions League spot next season.

Newcastle may have to part ways with a superb talent to avoid FFP issues.

Will Davis keeps Leicestershire in touch as Colin Ackermann lays a platform

Sam Robson makes 154 as visitors fight back on second at Merchant Taylors’

Will Davis claimed five wickets to lift Leicestershire’s prospects•Getty Images

Leicestershire 174 for 5 (Ackermann 65*, Inglis 49) trail Middlesex 324 (Robson 154, Davis 5-66) by 150 runsLeicestershire seamer Will Davis bowled his side back into contention on the second day of their LV= Insurance County Championship clash against Middlesex with season’s-best figures of 5 for 66.Davis, who had gone wicketless the previous day as Middlesex amassed 280 for 3 at Merchant Taylors’ School, sliced through the lower and middle order to prompt a collapse to 324 all out.In response, home captain Tim Murtagh collected two early Leicestershire wickets before his opposite number Colin Ackermann righted the ship with a patient undefeated half-century.Ackermann had reached 65 not out, with the visitors on 174 for 5, when bad light forced the players from the field.It was Abidine Sakande who triggered the procession of Middlesex wickets, bringing one back to hit Joe Cracknell’s front pad in the third over of the day before Davis took centre stage.The Foxes paceman got the ball moving sufficiently to remove Robbie White and then Sam Robson, whose seven-hour innings of 154 came to an end as Josh Inglis took a diving catch behind the stumps.Davis swiftly mopped up the Middlesex tail, dismissing James Harris and Nathan Sowter in successive overs and completing his five-for when Murtagh skied one into the hands of mid-off.Related

However, Murtagh struck back immediately at the start of the Leicestershire reply, with Sam Evans picking out Sowter at cover in the opening over before Lewis Hill was lbw to a delivery that kept low.Marcus Harris – who shared a 243-run partnership with Ackermann when the Foxes chased down 378 to beat Middlesex at home earlier in the season – looked in good nick again, producing a string of boundary drives in his brisk 31.The Australian left-hander departed when namesake James Harris persuaded him to edge behind, but Ackermann, who took 23 balls before getting off the mark, proved harder for Middlesex to shift.He built a fruitful stand of 97 with the more pugnacious Inglis, who looked set to overtake his skipper to a half-century, but was left one short as he lost his off stump to Ethan Bamber on the stroke of tea.That was Bamber’s sole reward for two impressive spells, but Sowter held a sharp catch at midwicket to cut off Harry Swindells’ powerful drive and secure a third wicket for Murtagh before the rapidly darkening sky brought play to a close.

Corinthians deve terminar 2021 no azul, mas mantém dívida de quase R$ 1 bilhão

MatériaMais Notícias

da aviator aposta: Ainda que o Corinthians deva fechar o ano de 2021 no superavit, algo que não acontecia há cinco anos, o primeiro ano de gestão do atual presidente Duilio Monteiro Alves pouco ou nada fez para equalizar a dívida total do clube, que segue girando em torno de R$ 1 bilhão.

da bet7: No balanço do último trimestre, o Timão apresentou um deficit de R$ 532 mil, mas por conta da retomada integral do público nos estádios entre novembro e dezembro, prevê um orçamento R$ 3,4 milhões no azul nesta temporada.

A questão é que Duílio herdou o clube com um endividamento próximo a casa de R$ 1 bilhão e os valores continuam muito próximo. Até setembro esse deficit era de R$ 975,1 milhões, com o agravante das dívidas a curto prazo, aquelas
que precisam ser pagas em até um ano, que está emR$ 556,6 milhões.

Entre essas pendências emergenciais estão principalmente o pagamento a fornecedores, seguido de encargos sociais, empréstimos e financiamentos, direitos de imagem, tributos parcelados e obrigações tributárias.

Durante a atual administração, a direção corintiana conseguiu ‘se livrar’ de alguns atletas que estavam longe de representar um bom custo-benefício ao clube do Parque São Jorge, foram diversas liberações e empréstimos para dar um alívio na folha salarial. No entanto, essas saídas foram compensadas pela contratação de alguns atletas que eleveram o patamar corintiano dentro das quatro linhas, mas que representavam um padrão maior nos vencimentos em relação ao que o grupo do Corinthians tinha até o então.

A diretoria corintiana está confiante em atenuar parte da dívida atual ainda em exercício de mandato, para isso eles contam com a arrecadação da Neo Química Arena, que, por conta da pandemia, esteve fechada por aproximadamente dois anos.

Para auxiliar na controle das dívidas e gestão financeira, o Corinthians contratou no último ano a Consultoria Flaconi e a KPMG, enquanto uma empresa busca cortar os gastos do clube em até 20% a segunda tem como principal objetivo a renegociação das dívidas do clube.

BCB to issue notice to Mohammedan club for bubble breach

The bubble breach involved Shakib Al Hasan, who captains Mohammedan Sporting Club in the DPL•Mohammedan Sporting Club

The BCB has decided to issue a notice to Mohammedan Sporting Club about their June 4 biosecure bubble breach during the ongoing Dhaka Premier League, following a hearing held on Tuesday. The Cricket Committee of Dhaka Metropolis (CCDM) chairman Kazi Inam Ahmed said that Shakib Al Hasan, the club captain, was among those who attended the meeting.”They acknowledged that there was a breach, and expressed their disappointment,” Ahmed said. “BCB and CCDM are hopeful of conducting this tournament in a safe and secure manner. We have contacted all the clubs, and we will work continuously to maintain the bio-bubble. To prevent a breach like this, we will give notice to the Mohammedan club.”Related

The incident reportedly took place last Friday when the Mohammedan club brought two net bowlers to bowl to Shakib at the indoor facility of the Shere Bangla National Stadium, which is also part of the BCB’s bio-bubble. But the club didn’t notify the CCDM even though they have claimed that both bowlers tested negative for Covid-19. An outsider was also seen taking selfies in the premises.The CCDM’s technical committee chairman Jalal Yunus, the BCB’s chief executive Nizamuddin Chowdhury, CCDM chairman Ahmed and member secretary Ali Hossain, as well as the Mohammedan club officials, manager and captain Shakib were present during the hearing.The BCB said before the tournament that any breach could mean a fine, a suspension, or even point deductions for the club. The board has spent more than Tk 7 crore (USD 825,230 approx) on the bubble by housing the twelve clubs and match officials in four separate five-star hotels in Dhaka.After the National Cricket League was postponed in early April, the DPL, reduced to the T20 format, began on May 31. The tournament is taking place during the latest phase of lockdown, which began on April 5 in the country. Bangladesh is experiencing a second wave of the Covid-19 pandemic with 44 deaths and another 2322 positive cases reported in the last 24 hours.

Potter could find his next Dunk by reviving Leicester’s £50k-p/w gem

da mrbet: Leicester City will hope their ongoing quest to replace Enzo Maresca doesn't stretch on for too long, knowing that they need to start adding players to their squad soon ahead of a season back in the top flight.

da dobrowin: A large majority of the current Foxes camp, who are just fresh off being crowned as Championship title-winners, have tasted Premier League football before, however, with the likes of Jamie Vardy even boasting a Premier League winners medal on his mantelpiece, alongside that more recent second-tier success.

That means Maresca's replacement won't have his work cut out too much entering into the hot seat, knowing that the squad is littered with top talents already, but one major frontrunner for the King Power Stadium vacancy could get more out of a particular member of Leicester's defence, if appointed.

Leicester narrowing down their hunt for a new manager

Many different outlets have now reported that Graham Potter is the standout name the powers that be at Leicester want as their next boss, with a toss-up between the ex-Chelsea boss and Steve Cooper forming according to Football Insider.

Potter might well need some convincing to take on the Leicester vacancy, however, as the newly promoted side wait it out to see if the 49-year-old does want to take on the reins or not, with the precarious situation at Manchester United now settled, which Potter was previously in the running for.

Graham Potter.

If they are finally successful in their approach for the in-demand manager, players such as Wout Faes could be boosted by this news, having witnessed what the former Brighton boss did with Lewis Dunk when in charge of the Seagulls.

Dunk now finds himself in Gareth Southgate's England squad for the forthcoming Euros off the back of Potter's time on the South Coast, and so Faes will want to shine in a similar fashion for the East Midlands side next campaign, having found his introduction to Premier League football tricky under previous management.

How Potter could get the best out of Faes

The 6 foot 2 defender was always going to be expected to immediately set the world alight when joining from Stade De Reims in 2022, relocating to England for a bumper £15m.

It was somewhat of a disappointing debut season for the £50k-per-week signing therefore, not helped obviously by Leicester slipping down to the Championship during this same campaign, with the 26-year-old keeping just seven clean sheets from 31 contests.

Yet, making the drop-down, Faes has excelled – as can be seen when glancing at the table above – and will strive to continue being an "aggressive" gem, as he was labelled by Gary Lineker, when venturing back up to the Premier League.

Potter could be the exact manager the Belgian needs to truly help him come into his own in the top division, therefore, with the ex-Brighton boss turning Dunk into a fantastic performer in the elite division, having gifted the now 32-year-old the captain's armband on his arrival in 2019.

The England international would go on to shine after his manager's decision to gift him these duties, picking up three goals and three assists from the back during his first campaign as captain, whilst nearly matching Faes' passing accuracy total at 87% across his stellar 33 matches.

Even stating that he was "proud" of Dunk back in 2021, for how much he had seen his game be elevated under his management, Potter will hope he can have a similar transformative impact on Faes soon, who will want to kick on after an excellent second-tier campaign.

وأردف: “أنا لن أعلق على أداء التحكيم في المباراة، لن أتحدث عن أرضية الملعب (استاد السلام)”.

وعن مواجهة غيابات الدفاع في مباراة الإسماعيلي، قال: “لم أفكر في الحل”، واستكمل ساخرا :”للأسف فترة الانتقالات قد انتهت لا أستطيع ضم صفقة جديدة”.

2026 World Cup Draw: What could England’s route to the final be?

da winzada777: We are still several months away from the World Cup taking place in America in 2026 and while the play-offs to finalise the final few places at next year’s tournament are yet to take place, we now know who England will be facing.

da blaze casino: Thomas Tuchel was brought into the Three Lions setup by the FA with one goal. To win the next World Cup.

Well, he can now begin to plot out the route it will take to make the final and potentially lift football’s biggest prize.

Can England end over 60 years of hurt? Time well. Here’s who they’re set to face in the USA next summer and how the rest of the draw played out.

Who are England facing and when?

England were drawn in group L, the final group. They were drawn against Croatia, the nation that beat them in the semi-finals of the 2018 World Cup and Panama, a side they also faced back in 2018, demolishing them 6-1 in the group stages. Rounding off that group is Ghana who were one of the last balls to come out in the draw.

England’s World Cup group

Date

1. Croatia

Wednesday 17th June

2. Ghana

Tuesday 23rd June

3. Panama

Saturday 27th June

What is the rest of the draw?

The first match of the tournament sees joint hosts Mexico take on South Africa, a repeat of the first game of the 2010 World Cup. They will also face Korea Republic and await the winner of a play-off to determine their other match.

Fellow hosts Canada take on Qatar and Switzerland while awaiting another play-off winner while USA face Paraguay, Australia and a play-off winner.

We all love a group of death and next year’s looks as though it could well be Group I which sees France, Senegal, Norway and a play-off winner compete for a place in the knock-out stages.

England's route to the final

Providing England win their group, then they will face a team that finished third in the group stages in the last 32 of the 2026 World Cup.

Awaiting them in the last 16 could be host nation Mexico, before a possible quarter-final awaits against Brazil. In the semi-finals it’s likely they would have to face France. Talk about a tough route.

In the final, it could be a repeat of the showpiece event from the last European Championships, where either Spain or Argentina could await if everything goes according to the script.

Could Messi and Ronaldo face each other?

Well, Messi’s Argentina are set to face Algeria, Austria and Jordan in group J and if they finish top, then their likely route to the final would see them face Saudi Arabia or Uruguay in the last 32.

A tie against the USA or Egypt could await in the last 16. Portugal or Colombia are expected to be their quarter-final opponents before they could face one of Brazil, the Netherlands or Tuchel’s Three Lions in the semi-finals.

As for Ronaldo, his final chance of winning a World Cup will see him face Uzbekistan, Colombia and a play-off winner in the group stages before potential matches against Croatia or England in the last 16 and France or Messi’s Argentina in the quarter-finals await.

Com gol de Elton, Cuiabá bate o Fortaleza e deixa a zona de rebaixamento do Brasileirão

MatériaMais Notícias

da bwin: Entrando em campo pensando unicamente na vitória, o Cuiabá sabia da necessidade de vencer o Fortaleza, na noite desta segunda-feira, pela 37ª rodada do Campeonato Brasileiro, na Arena Pantanal. E o Dourado não decepcionou sua torcida. Ainda no primeiro tempo, Elton, de pênalti, garantiu a vitória ao time de casa, por 1 a 0, conquistando um importante resultado na luta contra o Z-4 da competição.

Sendo assim, o time comandado por Jorginho chegou aos 43 pontos pulando para a 15ª colocação, e dependerá apenas das próprias forças para seguir na elite em 2022. Já o time comandado por Vojvoda, por conta do tropeço, acabou estacionando na 5ª colocação com seus 55 pontos.

Cuiabá abre o placar no início

Fazendo valer o fator casa, a equipe do Cuiabá tratou de ir pra cima do Fortaleza tentando construir uma vantagem ainda na etapa inicial. E se deu bem. Logo aos 8 minutos, após a arbitragem marcar um pênalti Jackson sobre Felipe Marques, o atacante Elton, cobrando com categoria, abriu o placar na Arena Pantanal para festa da torcida.

Após o gol, o Dourado continuou pressionando o Leão. Até meados dos 25, com o apoio vindo das arquibancadas, ainda teve mais duas oportunidades de ampliar, sendo elas com Elton e Felipe Marques, porém em ambas a bola acabou indo para fora para a lamentação dos atletas.

Fortaleza sem muita criatividade

Com o tempo passando, a equipe visitante passou a ter um pouco mais a posse de bola até a reta final da etapa. Entretanto, mesmo conseguindo equilibrar as coisas, tinha muita dificuldade em atacar, não conseguindo finalizar nenhuma bola contra o goleiro Walter, fazendo com que os mandantes conseguissem levar o resultado parcial para o vestiário.

Leão volta com postura mais ofensiva

Com os treinadores promovendo algumas trocas antes do início da segunda etapa, quem acabou se dando melhor foi o Fortaleza. Até meados dos 10 minutos, chegava com perigo na área rival, conseguindo assustar com Titi e Wellington Paulista, mas a bola teimou em não balançar as redes.

Na sequência, percebendo o Tricolor melhor em campo, Jorginho então recuou novamente para seus suplentes. Em três trocas, colocou Aurmir, Cabrera e Rafael Gava visando ganhar mais velocidade. Mesmo com as mudanças, poucas foram as chances criadas pelo time de Mato Grosso mantendo o resultado.

Visitantes vão para cima em busca do empate, mas não obtém sucesso

Não muito diferente da postura de Jorginho em mudar sua equipe, Vojvoda também apostou em novas caras no duelo. Conseguindo pressionar mais até meados dos 30 minutos, desperdiçava chances e mais chances que apareciam, deixando a torcida do Cuiabá aliviada a cada erro de finalização.

Nos últimos 15 minutos, mais os acréscimos dados pela arbitragem, o Dourado tentava segurar o resultado do jeito que podia. Torcendo para o tempo passar depressa, ainda viu o Leão chegar mais duas vezes com Osvaldo e David, porém não foram o suficiente para empatar dando a deixa para Heber Roberto Lopes colocar um ponto final no duelo na Arena Pantanal para festa da torcida local.
