🚨🔴⚪️ Bruno Guimarães deal, driven by Mikel Arteta who’s pushing to bring him in.
Deal depends on Newcastle stance but #AFC to bid again + personal terms not an issue at all.
❗️ No intermediaries: agents Bertolucci, Kia Joorabchian and Alexis Malavolta are on it all together.
🚨 EXCL: Bruno Guimaraes informs Newcastle United of wish to leave & join Arsenal. #AFC stepping up pursuit - ready to offer deal worth up to £60m at present but no club-to-club contact yet + #NUFC stance still not entertaining bids for 28yo @TheAthleticFC https://t.co/6W3cpcqKKh
🚨🟢⚪️ Fran García to Real Betis, here we go! Deal signed with Real Madrid for €4m fee, 50% sell-on clause remaining to Madrid and medical booked.

@Davidspredict The first person is very correct. A woman may remain attentive, affectionate, and present when she continues to derive financial benefit from you. However, once that flow ceases, so too can the affection.

🚨⚠️ OFFICIAL: Belgian Federation statement on Folarin Balogun red card case, saying they are “astonished”.
“The Royal Belgian Football Association (RBFA) is astonished by FIFA's decision to declare suspended United States player Folarin Balogun eligible to play in the USA–Belgium match on Monday, 6 July at 5:00 p.m. (Seattle time).
FIFA bases its decision on Article 27 of the FIFA Disciplinary Code.
This provision states that the FIFA Disciplinary Committee may decide to suspend the enforcement of a previously imposed disciplinary sanction.
However, Article 66.4 of the same FIFA Disciplinary Code clearly provides that a red card (sending-off) automatically results in a suspension for the team's next match, as has been the case for all previous red cards issued during this FIFA World Cup.
Furthermore, and irrespective of the above, the decision is in direct contradiction with the provisions of the FIFA World Cup 2026 Competition Regulations, as set out in Article 10.5:
"If a player or team official is sent off as a result of a direct or indirect red card (second caution), they will automatically be suspended from their team's subsequent match. In addition, further sanctions may be imposed.”
The automatic nature of such a suspension was also explicitly reaffirmed in FIFA World Cup 2026 Circular No. 16, which was distributed to all participating member associations on 12 May 2026.
The same rule is reiterated at every FIFA World Cup 2026 Match Coordination Meeting prior to each match and is included in all FIFA World Cup 2026 workshop presentations.
❗️In order to safeguard the legitimate rights of all participating teams and to protect the fundamental principles of fair play in our sport, both at this FIFA World Cup and at future editions of the tournament, the RBFA is investigating all potential options.”
More on Andrey Santos. Understand along with Manchester United, Newcastle are also keen.
Player is open to a move because he wants a starting role.
Manchester United first enquired when Chelsea signed Alejandro Garnacho. Back then, Chelsea not open to a sale, but now a deal is possible if it suits all parties.🇧🇷
