He will write on the Premier League, scouting and transfers.Big transfers often create a domino effect, as one big move can spark more. Think about how if Hugo Ekitike (or Benjamin Sesko, or João Pedro) had moved to Newcastle United, it could have potentially unlocked Alexander Isak to Liverpool; or how Alejandro Garnacho’s move to Chelsea relied on exits for Christopher Nkunku or Nicolas Jackson.But perhaps just as crucial in shaping the market is when players renew their contract to stay at their current club.…

Perspective is needed at Aston Villa after defeat to Brentford followed a goalless draw at home to Newcastle. It means Villa have failed to score in their first two games for the first time in over 20 years. They are the only one of the 92 clubs yet to score.Villa supporters have been left frustrated by a summer in which spending has been restricted and Jacob Ramsey, one of their own, has left for Newcastle. Amadou Onana has now joined Boubacar Kamara on the injury list for Sunday’s game against Crystal Palace. Emery shares that frustration, of course, describing the…
NEW YORK (AP) — There’s been a lot of talk about the unwritten rules of tennis during Week 1 of this U.S. Open, whether it’s the necessity of a “ sorry, not sorry ” raised hand after a let cord or the proper way to warm up with an opponent or the legitimacy of an underarm serve.Another part of the game drawing attention — thanks to players’ complaints about each of the above — is the postmatch greeting at the net, which usually involves shaking hands and, sometimes, a hug or kisses on the cheek.
