8 years later, would still be cool to see @TosinAdarabioyo 🙌⚽️💙

[Jake Cohen @JakeFCohen]

@lloyd_scragg Diaz was prob wishful thinking on my part. sooner than later, I expect though! Adarabiayo would be cool to see.

Great to see our client @BenGWhittaker putting in another dominant performance and continue his winning ways at The O2 last night! 🥊🚀

Hats off to @BigFrazeBoxer & @FabioWardley for a monumental clash which is surely a FOTY contender 👏🏽🙌🏽

// ACHIEVEMENT

Massive congratulations to @FrankieRunham10 who has signed his first professional contract with @ChelseaFC after 10 years in the club’s Academy.

Read the club's official announcement here: https://t.co/bUdABvHRc6

@MC_of_A with obv caveat that i’m not any sort of accountant, let alone 🇩🇪 one, generally, lower wages = lower costs wrt employer taxes / pension contributions (both keyed to employee wage). also, player will need to be made whole, so any difference btw UK/DE tax will need to be made up

My amazing wife Helen died 3 yrs ago today and this morning, just after 7am, I woke and was side-swiped by a colossal wave of sadness. There will be zero sport in this 🧵 but if you want to join me for a few minutes of non-linear grief, please do. 1/n

Yet another example of how commercially valuable top women’s players are to clubs and brands.

"I wish they hired her for the men's team too...Emma Hayes is a perfect fit. I could not be more excited. They got THE BEST in the game." – @MichaelRyanRuiz says hiring Emma Hayes away from Chelsea to become the next head coach of the USWNT is a monster move.

At Wembley for both the @EFAA_Official and International Sport Tax Association Conference.

Between those and the @LawInSport event earlier, all in collaboration with @ucfb, Wembley is absolutely the place to be today for anyone working in football. 🤓📑⚽️

[Jake Cohen @JakeFCohen]

At the Barcelona - Sevilla match where I’ve just seen 19 year-old @SalmaParalluelo score four goals in the first half. 🤯🔥⚽️

Easy to see why she came in third in the Ballon d’Or voting, behind only Aitana Bonmatí and Sam Kerr and she’s nowhere close to her peak yet.

[Jake Cohen @JakeFCohen]

Emma Hayes has led Chelsea to 15 trophies and counting since 2015 alone.

Will be a huge loss for Chelsea, but I am very, very excited about the prospect of her leading the USWNT back to where they belong. 💙⚽️🇺🇸

[Jake Cohen @JakeFCohen]

That’s a hat trick for 22 year old, Sjoeke Nüsken.

@emmahayes1 and @ChelseaFCW are, by far, the best in the country and probably 1 or 1A in the world at identifying and recruiting the best young talents.
