Nessa última quarta-feira (27), o Corinthians viajou ao Paraná para fazer um amistoso diante do Londrina, na região sul do Estado. O Timão, levou consigo o que tinha de melhor opção em seu elenco visando dar ritmo de jogo a equipe de olho na estreia da Copa Sul-Americana na próxima semana. Apesar disso, o Corinthians não pode contar com a presença de Igor Coronado, maior contratação da equipe para a temporada.

Coronado, que chegou ao Brasil com status de craque, e teve a contratação muito comemorada nas redes sociais pela Fiel torcida, fez sua estreia com camisa corinthiana, atuou quinze minutos e desde então se tornou desfalque para o clube. Com uma lesão muscular no reto femural da coxa direita, o meia que recebe um dos maiores salários do país, se tornou uma decepção para a torcida alvinegra que espera ver o retorno do alto investimento feito.

A bem da verdade, o jogador já vinha enfrentando problemas de lesão enquanto ainda estava na Arábia Saudita e esse foi um dos motivos pelo qual outras equipes brasileiras desistiram da negociação. Já o Corinthians entendeu que seu elenco poderia suprir um possível desfalque. No entanto, ninguém da direção e da comissão técnica contavam que Coronado jogaria menos de um tempo com mais de um mês de clube.

Hey Shohei Ohtani, John Schneider called and he wants his Blue Jays gear back.

One of the biggest what-ifs surrounding the 2025 World Series between the Dodgers and Blue Jays concerns Ohtani, namely, that he very nearly became a member of the Blue Jays during his foray into free agency two years ago. So naturally, Blue Jays manager John Schneider, on the eve of Game 1 of the World Series on Thursday, was asked how close he believes Toronto was to landing the two-way superstar, who had narrowed his preferred list of teams to the Dodgers and Blue Jays.

Schneider reflected on his club's failed pursuit of Ohtani, then cracked a joke about the stops the team pulled out in its hopes to woo the superstar.

"You never know," Schneider said. "I think when we met with him, he felt good about it. You felt good about the feedback he was giving about our organization and opportunity here. But you never really know what a player is feeling in free agency. There's a lot of things that have to line up for them personally, too. So, you can't really think about what-if. You think about the 26 that we have. He's a great player.

"I'll say it again—I hope he brought his hat, the Blue Jay hat that he took from us in our meeting—I hope he brought it back finally. And the jacket for Decoy [Ohtani's dog]. You know? It's like, give us our stuff back already."

How close were the Blue Jays to landing Ohtani?

Pretty, pretty close. Toronto, armed with one of the highest payrolls in the big leagues, was willing to go step-for-step with the Dodgers, another financially muscular organization, in a race that eventually ended with the then-largest contract in North American sports history.

Toronto reportedly pulled out all of the stops in its efforts to sign Ohtani, including a secret tour of every inch of the Blue Jays' complex in Dunedin, Fla., jerseys, workout gear and accessories tailored to Ohtani's preferences, and yes, even a jacket for his dog Decoy, a Kooikerhondje.

Decoy was infamously front-and-center in the Ohtani recruitment process when some theorized and speculated that his dog's name was a clue as to where he could be headed in free agency. While it turns out that that wasn't the case, it's just another piece of insight into the enormity of Ohtani's free agency.

And while the Blue Jays ultimately struck out, Schneider still likes how things played out.

"He's a great player," Schneider continued. "But that aside, I think that we have a great team and just an unbelievable cast of characters and players. I think things worked out the way they meant to work out."

José Caballero leads Major League Baseball with 41 stolen bases and after seeing how easy his latest theft was, you'll understand why.

Caballero was on first based after earning a two-out walk from Nationals reliever Clayton Beeter in the bottom of the seventh on Tuesday night. After watching Beeter throw three pitches to Trent Grisham he took off.

He got such an incredible jump that he actually made it all the way to second before Beeter even threw the pitch. Video of the play barely looks real. What must have been going through first baseman Josh Bell's mind as he pointed at Caballero running to second?

The only way we can tell for certain that the footage wasn't doctored is the combination of the box score and the laughter of the announcers as they watched it happen.

After the game, manager Aaron Boone called his jump on this play, "elite" and joked about his pace maker.

Caballero was aquired by the Yankees at the trade deadline. He has now appeared in 17 games for the team.

The fans might still be basking in what ended up being a brilliant Premier League weekend, but Arsenal now have to shift their focus to the Champions League.

Mikel Arteta’s side are currently sitting on a 100% record in the competition after wins against Athletic Club and Olympiacos, but will face their biggest challenge against Atlético Madrid.

While famous for their defensive nous in seasons past, Diego Simeone’s side are looking a far more potent threat this year, and should give the Emirates faithful a spectacle.

However, to ensure his team comes out on the right side, Arteta might need to make a few changes and keep a keen eye out for two particularly dangerous Atleti stars.

Atlético Madrid's dangermen

Unfortunately for Arteta and Arsenal, more than a handful of Atlético Madrid players could cause them some real trouble on Tuesday night, but there are two who perhaps stand out above the rest.

Chalkboard

Football FanCast’s Chalkboard series presents a tactical discussion from around the global game.

The first is, of course, Julián Alvarez, who the Gunners will already be all too familiar with due to his time winning Premier League titles with Manchester City at their expense.

However, while the Argentine has ultimately had the last laugh over the North Londoners, his personal record against them isn’t great, as in the four matches he’s played against Arteta and Co, he has won two, lost two and failed to score or assist a goal.

Yet, the player fans saw leave England last summer is not the same one who’s become Atléti’s talisman, as in 57 appearances last season, totalling 3967 minutes, he scored 29 goals and provided eight assists, which works out to a goal involvement every 1.54 games, or every 107.21 minutes.

Then, so far this season, the Calchín-born monster has scored seven goals and provided three assists in ten appearances, totalling 800 minutes, which is an astounding average of a goal involvement every game, or every 80 minutes.

There is no doubt that Alvarez is the most dangerous player for the Spanish side.

Even so, Arteta and Co cannot forget about Antoine Griezmann, as while he’s no longer as prolific as he once was, he is still more than capable of causing trouble and pulling strings from just behind the centre-forward – plus he scored his 200th goal for the club last month.

In all, the attack is what Arsenal have to worry about most from Atlético, so it’s good that the Gunners’ defence is their biggest strength, although Arteta should make at least one change to it.

The change Arteta should make

It should go without saying that for a game of this magnitude, William Saliba and Gabriel Mageheles simply have to start, and Jurrien Timber probably should as well, leaving Riccardo Calafiori as the man to come out of the side.

Now, this is no slight on the Italian international, as he has been exceptional for much of the campaign, so much so that it would be hard to disagree with one analyst’s opinion that he has been “Arsenal’s Player of the Season so far.”

However, there are a few reasons he should come out of the lineup for this game, the first of which is his fitness record.

Since joining the club last summer, the former Bologna gem has missed 30 games for club and country through injury, four of which have been problems with his knee.

So, considering he has already started nine games this season, it would make sense to let him sit this game out, as losing him to fatigue could be detrimental to the league campaign.

Second, while he is a maverick on the pitch and really helps out with attacks, it would be fair to say he has not shown himself to be quite as solid defensively, especially when compared to the player who should come in to replace him: Myles Lewis-Skelly.

The incredibly talented Hale Ender was Arteta’s starting left-back for much of last season, and while he has the ability to help out offensively, and has a wand of a left foot, he’s even better when it comes to locking down attackers.

For example, he helped keep a clean sheet at home against Real Madrid last season, and then looked brilliant at the Bernabeu as well.

The 19-year-old has a real tenacity about him, an edge that makes opposition attackers think twice before having a go, and that is why he has been hailed as a “future captain” by club insider Hand of Arsenal.

Ultimately, with Calafiori needing a rest and Lewis-Skelly being more than good enough to lock down Alvarez and Co, this change feels like a no-brainer for Arteta.

It doesn’t often occur in the Premier League, but Manchester City – even with Erling Haaland leading the line – drew a blank away at Aston Villa on Sunday.

In the end, a fiercely hit effort by Matty Cash in the first half would be the difference between the two sides, as the Citizens fell to their first league defeat since coming unstuck away at Brighton and Hove Albion at the close of August.

Tijjani Reijnders, in particular, struggled at Villa Park, with the number four’s early fall from grace at City a concerning tale to keep tabs on.

Why Reijnders was disappointing against Aston Villa

When the Dutchman has been given the freedom to express himself further up the pitch, he has been a joy to watch; however, with a goal confidently put away on his debut against Wolverhampton Wanderers, even seeing statistician Statman Dave herald him as being “De Bruyne’s heir.”

However, the ex-AC Milan man wasn’t played in a De Bruyne-style position against Unai Emery’s hosts, with Reijnders not looking so comfortable as an anchor figure for Guardiola’s side on their travels, who are still presumably reeling that Rodri remains in and out of the Etihad treatment room.

While Reijnders did trudge off at the end of the 1-0 loss with just two passes not reaching their intended target, the 27-year-old did noticeably find it tricky to battle away for his losing side, with an alarming zero duels won from seven attempted.

Moreover, the £46.5m summer purchase also failed to win a single tackle, with Amadou Onana for the hosts – in stark contrast – winning a combined tally of two tackles and six duels, as Reijnders routinely lost every 50/50 and scuffle that came his way.

With Nico Gonzalez also out injured, it remains to be seen what option Guardiola will go with in the games to come in the defensive midfield spot on the pitch, with Reijnders clearly not cut out for the demands of the position long-term.

He isn’t alone, though, in being worried about his first-team spot moving forward, with this “wasteful” attacker – as he was branded by journalist Amos Murphy – also in some bother about his immediate future in the Spaniard’s main XI.

The 5/10 City star who must be dropped

Watching back over the highlights from Villa Park, it’s clear that City could have nicked at least a point on another day if they had packed their shooting boots and weren’t so “toothless”, as they were branded by journalist David Mooney at the full-time whistle.

Indeed, Haaland uncharacteristically fluffed a one-on-one opportunity directly after Cash’s sweetly struck opener, with Savinho also falling victim to some poor finishing himself, when two chances in quick succession in the second 45 minutes passed him by.

His overall play in attacking positions, away from spurning some big chances, also makes for some pretty grim reading, with Savinho only managing to make 15 accurate passes when in the opposition’s half of the pitch, leading to him giving away possession a mammoth 18 times.

On top of that, the lacklustre Brazilian could only muster up one successful dribble from his 84-minute stint in the West Midlands, alongside further failing to complete a single accurate cross to try and pick out the likes of Haaland, who can strike fear into any defenders he’s coming up against at a moment’s notice.

Savinho will surely now sense that his starting spot is on thin ice, with only one assist next to his name from his four Premier League starts this season, not exactly the most glowing track record.

Manchester Evening News journalist Simon Bajkowski would hand out a low 5/10 rating to the 21-year-old, subsequently, who stated that Savinho was ‘largely poor’ when attempting to unlock Villa, away from a promising effort here and there on Emiliano Martinez’s well-guarded net.

Cutting a forlorn figure at the close of the slim 1-0 defeat, Guardiola will have many a selection issue to address ahead of City facing off against AFC Bournemouth at the beginning of November, with both Reijnders and Savinho potentially removed from his starting lineup for the test of the Cherries.

Man City "interested" in title-winning 39 y/o manager to succeed Guardiola

Would he be the ideal successor at the Etihad?

ByHenry Jackson Oct 25, 2025

A new claim has emerged regarding who Norwich City’s next manager could be, with Kim Hellberg reportedly the subject of talks with the club recently.

The Canaries are still looking to bring in the right replacement for Liam Manning, who was relieved of his duties earlier this month, with the 40-year-old sending a classy message to the fanbase.

“I look back on being appointed head coach of my hometown club with great pride. Unfortunately, we were unable to achieve the results or fulfil the plans we set out when we took over in June.​ Although my time with the fans was brief, I want to acknowledge their outstanding support during a challenging period. They continued to show up in great numbers – unsurprising given their passion and loyalty – and displayed incredible spirit despite understandable frustrations.”

“I would like to thank the players for their efforts throughout my time at the club and wish them all the best, both personally and professionally. The club welcomed me warmly, and the dedication of everyone across all departments never went unnoticed. I am truly grateful for that and I wish everyone associated with Norwich City the very best for the future.”

A host of individuals have been linked with being Manning’s successor at Norwich, including former Sweden boss Jon Dahl Tomasson, and now a new update has thrown another name into the hat.

The latest on Jon Dahl Tomasson becoming Norwich City's next manager

Is he the right man for the job?

Norwich have held talks with Kim Hellberg

According to Sky Sports, Norwich briefly spoke to Hammarby manager boss Hellebrg about taking charge at Carrow Road, but that ship appears to have sailed.

That’s because Middlesbrough are believed to have a verbal agreement in place with the 37-year-old, bringing him in to replace Rob Edwards, who has departed for Wolves.

Hellberg would have been a left-field choice by Norwich, given his lack of experience, but it is easy to see why they have looked at him as a potential strong choice.

The Swede has been lauded as the “brightest football mind” by assistant coach David Selini, highlighting his tactical acumen, and by IFK Varnamo sporting director Enes Ahmetovic for the detail he goes into, and he is at an age where he is likely to bring fresh ideas.

It looks as though Norwich will have to look elsewhere, though, whether it be Tomasson, Gary O’Neil or someone else, and the Canaries will hope that Hellberg doesn’t thrive too much at Boro, assuming he does move there.

Norwich City also had talks with manager who has 100% win record vs Manning

Manchester United have now reportedly set their sights on signing an impressive Ligue 1 defender, who has left their scouts blown away.

INEOS draw up 2026 transfer plan

To their credit, Man United got their summer transfer window fairly spot on. Matheus Cunha, Bryan Mbeumo and Senne Lammens all look like solid signings, whilst Benjamin has shown flashes of his true quality. And results proved before the international break that a turnaround under Ruben Amorim is still possible.

Even if Monday’s 1-0 loss against the 10 men of Everton brought them back down to reality, one defeat in their last five games represents much-needed improvement.

INEOS have never stopped backing their manager and recent reports have claimed that they’re ready to return to the transfer market to improve his squad even further in 2026.

The plan, according to the Express, is to sign two wing-backs and a midfielder next summer, with the likes of Elliot Anderson among their top targets.

The Nottingham Forest star has been one of the best players in the Premier League this season even as his side sacked Nuno Espirito Santo and then Ange Postecoglou before hiring Sean Dyche.

Thomas Tuchel has been impressed enough to grant Anderson a starting place next to Declan Rice in his England side, which is now his to lose ahead of the World Cup.

The unfortunate news for Man United is that his price will only increase if he enjoys a successful tournament, even though reports have already claimed he’ll cost them over £100m.

The midfielder is also not the only name on United’s shopping list. INEOS have also reportedly set their sights on signing Ligue 1 defender Jeremy Jacquet.

Man Utd plotting "bargain" Jeremy Jacquet move

According to Caught Offside, Man United are now plotting a move to sign Jacquet from Stade Rennais after the young defender impressed their scouts in France.

The Red Devils have reportedly joined Chelsea, Arsenal, Tottenham Hotspur, Crystal Palace in the race to sign the 20-year-old and it’s easy to see why.

Dubbed “imposing” by Como scout Ben Mattinson, Jacquet is reportedly available for as little as €30m (£26m), which Caught Offside’s Mark Brus described as a “bargain” deal.

Having already signed Leny Yoro and Ayden Heaven in recent years, adding Jacquet to their ranks would complete Amorim’s back three for years to come.

Man Utd receive bid for "insane" £105k-p/w player, he's said yes to January move

The Red Devils have received a proposal ahead of the January transfer window, with a sale now edging ‘closer’.

With Harry Maguire still yet to sign a new contract ahead too, the young centre-back may have the chance to come straight into Man United’s starting side next summer in an attempt to make an instant impact.

Worse than Bruno & Casemiro: Amorim can't start Man Utd duo together again

The New York Yankees are looking to snap out of their awful skid where they’ve lost 16 of their last 22 games when they take on the Tampa Bay Rays on Tuesday night. 

Tampa Bay fell to two games under .500 after losing three in a row over the holiday weekend, and it finds itself as a home underdog in this one. 

Carlos Rodon gets the ball for the Yankees, and he’s been awful since late June, posting a 10.89 ERA over his last four outings. Can he turn things around and get the Yankees back on track?

Here’s a look at the odds, probable pitchers and my best bet for this AL East clash.

Carlos Rodon: The lefty has been awful over his last four starts, allowing five, eight, eight and three runs over that stretch. That pushed Rodon’s season-long ERA from 2.93 all the way to 4.45, and he’s really struggled with his fastball this season. 

Rodon is a tough pitcher to trust heading into this road matchup. 

Tampa Bay Rays

Yandy Diaz: This is a favorable spot for Yandy Diaz, who has crushed left-handed pitching this season with an impressive .326/.362/.477 slash line in 86 at-bats. Diaz hasn’t been nearly as good as last season when he was an All-Star, but he’s still hitting .270 through the first half of 2024.

This is a game that I broke down in today’s MLB Best Bets, as the Rays are a sneaky bet as home underdogs:
