Barcelona starlet to consider exit offers this week
While that will likely involve a development plan for youngsters like Guille Fernandez, Toni Fernandez, Dro Fernandez, Roony Bardghji and Jofre Torrents, it could mean a permanent exit for Hector Fort. The 18-year-old spent last year in the first team, but was rarely trusted by Hansi Flick, and grew frustrated with his game time. Despite this, he has thus far maintained a desire to reamain at the club.
Hector Fort to analyse exit offers this week
Fort appears to have come round to the idea of an exit though. Barcelona are in favour of a transfer, as they try to clear some space in their salary limit, but Fort has multiple offers say Sport, both for a permanent deal and a loan. Paris FC have been cited as an interested party if their move for Hamari Traore does not go through, while Borussia Dortmund and AC Milan are also looking at the teenage prospect.

Myles Garrett: Shedeur Sanders works hard, takes his craft seriously
The Browns will start Shedeur Sanders at quarterback on Friday, giving him his first professional game action — albeit in the preseason. Star defensive end Myles Garrett was asked about his impressions of Sanders in his Wednesday press conference following Cleveland's joint practice with Carolina. Garrett has been spotted at times chatting with Sanders on the field between reps throughout training camp. 'I mean, he's funny, he's optimistic, lighthearted, but he works hard," Garrett said, via transcript from the team. "He takes it seriously, his craft and he's watching what the others are doing and doing it his own way, in which only he can. So, looking forward to see him on these preseason games and how he manages the offense. But I think he looks good, but all the guys look good right now. "[H]e's definitely coming to me a couple times to see what I'm thinking [when] I'm going through my rush or what the defense's mentality is.' A fifth-round pick in this year's draft, Sanders has mainly been working with the second- and third-team offense during training camp. Those are the players he'll be on the field with on Friday night, as head coach Kevin Stefanski said the plan is to rest most starters after they received most of the reps in Wednesday's joint practice.

Titans hit the road for joint practices and preseason games against Bucs and Falcons
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — The Tennessee Titans practiced in Music City on Wednesday morning and then headed out for their longest preseason road trip since the franchise left Texas in 1997. Second-year coach Brian Callahan scheduled not one, but two sets of joint practices around back-to-back road games starting Thursday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He sees nine nights away from Nashville as a way to create more of an old training camp vibe for a young team. 'That's sort of the intent of the whole trip,' Callahan said. 'Spend some time, get a chance to grow together, and then get to go play against some other teams.' Callahan also wants to hear the reviews from the Buccaneers, then the Atlanta Falcons on what they think of how the Titans compete. He sees this as a chance for a starting point of what the Titans can be this year. 'And get a change to do some things as a team on the road, some events together, things like that,' Callahan said. 'It's something I'm really looking forward to. Can't wait.' The Titans, who went 3-14 in Callahan's debut season, will be away from Nashville for nine straight nights. They won't practice again in Nashville until Aug. 19 before wrapping up the preseason by hosting Minnesota on Aug. 22. After opening this preseason Saturday night against Tampa Bay, the Titans go to Atlanta for two joint practices and a game Aug. 15. Left tackle Dan Moore has had only one joint practice with Pittsburgh, and that was last year. This will be a bit of a new experience, though Moore is familiar to going away to camp with the Steelers a regular at Latrobe, Pennsylvania. 'Obviously, we're on a business trip, but we'll have some free time, some downtime," Moore said. "We'll be in the hotel. Guys can hang out, do stuff together and go places, go eat, whatever. And I think that's a good time for us to just bond as team and build chemistry.' Bonding can only help a franchise that has added 37 free agents, nine drafted rookies and five more players added off waivers through Sunday — a total of 51 players in training camp. Safety Quandre Diggs isn't new after playing eight games for Tennessee last season before going on injured reserve. He signed Tuesday, and the Titans are easing him back into the mix. He recognizes a lot of faces on the roster, including his cousin, rookie quarterback Cam Ward. 'It's different when you walk in the locker room and you see your family, like real family," the three-time Pro Bowl safety said of Ward. "And so it was cool.' Titans defensive coordinator Dennard Wilson has been trying to throw every look possible at Ward to help prep the No. 1 draft pick overall for the season opener Sept. 7 at Denver. Now the Titans will get a glimpse of how other NFL defenses might challenge the rookie. 'He's a grown man to me,' wide receiver Calvin Ridley said of Ward. 'He's a confident guy, he's a guy that wants to be good.' ___ AP NFL:

Sunderland confirm loan signing of Chelsea youngster
Sunderland have confirmed the loan signing of Chelsea forward Marc Guiu. The teenager signed for the London club from Barcelona last summer, but made just six appearances across all competitions last term, most of which came in the Uefa Europa Conference League. There had been interest in Guiu from clubs earlier in the summer, but Chelsea were seeking a loan exit for the 19-year-old as opposed to a permanent move away. Guiu becomes Sunderland's ninth signing of the summer window as they prepare for a return to the Premier League next season. So far, they have made a handful of high-profile additions, including former Arsenal midfielder Granit Xhaka from Bayer Leverkusen. Guiu's move is a straight season-long loan with no buy option included, but he is expected to become an integral figure in the Black Cats' forward line as they aim to avoid the drop. 📸 Ed Sykes - 2024 Getty Images
