Cristian Chivu expected to take over as coach of Inter Milan after ending Parma contract
Associated Press
PARMA, Italy (AP) — Parma has reached agreement with coach Cristian Chivu to terminate his contract, the club said on Monday.
The 44-year-old is now expected to join Inter Milan to replace Simone Inzaghi, who took over as coach of Saudi Arabian club Al-Hilal on Wednesday.
The Serie A team thanked Chivu for 'all of his work and for reaching our sporting objective, while wishing him all the best in his career in the future.'
Parma hired Chivu in February with the side 18th in the 20-team Serie A. It went on to avoid relegation by finishing 16th.

Indeed, his four-year stint at San Siro was a complete disaster.

Inter tried to help the Argentine get back on track by sending him out on a season-long loan to Olympique Marseille in 2023/24. However, Correa flopped in Ligue 1 as Les Olympiens refused to sign him permanently the following summer. He spent most of the 2024/25 campaign as a marginal figure at Giuseppe Meazza.

Canadiens defenseman Lane Hutson earns Calder Trophy as NHL's rookie of the year
NEW YORK (AP) — Montreal Canadiens defenseman Lane Hutson won the 2024-25 Calder Trophy on Tuesday as the NHL's rookie of the year. Hutson led rookies in scoring with six goals and 60 assists in his inaugural NHL season as the Canadiens made a surprise return to the playoffs this season. His 60 assists matched Larry Murphy (1980-81) for the most by a rookie defenseman, while his 66 points trailed only Murphy, Brian Leetch (1988-89) and Gary Suter (1985-86) for the most by a rookie blueliner. Hutson, selected 62nd overall by Montreal at the 2022 NHL draft, is the Canadiens' second Calder recipient in the expansion era after goaltender Ken Dryden (1971-72). The 21-year-old was surprised with the trophy at a dinner attended by more than 50 family and friends. Hutson was the first-place selection on 165 of the 191 ballots cast by members of the Professional Hockey Writers Association. Calgary Flames goaltender Dustin Wolf was second in voting, followed by San Jose Sharks center Macklin Celebrini. ___ AP NHL:

Champions League winner PSG short-lists two sites outside Paris for future stadium
PARIS (AP) — Paris Saint-Germain has short-listed two sites outside the capital city to build its future stadium. The Qatar Sports Investments-owned club wants its own stadium, but Paris city hall has so far refused to sell Parc des Princes, the 48,000-capacity venue that has served as PSG's home since 1972. 'Paris Saint-Germain's Champions League triumph marks a major milestone in the club's development,' PSG said in a statement Tuesday. 'In order to remain competitive at the highest level, to consolidate its business model over the long term and to welcome a greater number of supporters in the best possible conditions, the club must now acquire a stadium that matches its ambitions. This is an essential prerequisite if the club is to sustain its growth over the long term.' PSG said it will now focus on two sites — one in the town of Massy, just south of Paris near Orly airport; the other in Poissy, 25 kilometers (15 miles) west of the city. The club opened its new training center in Poissy last year. 'Further studies will be undertaken to assess more precisely the real feasibility of such a project on each of the two sites and to build an ambitious, responsible and meaningful project for the club, our supporters and the local authorities for the coming decades,' PSG said. 'At this stage, neither of the two sites is favored," it added. "The club will conduct both studies with the same seriousness, rigor and openness, in order to make the best possible decision.' PSG said it will keep playing at the Parc des Princes 'for several years' until the final project is delivered. PSG said last year it had invested more than 85 million euros ($92 million) in maintenance costs for the Parc des Princes, adding that it was committed to investing a further 500 million euros in renovations in order to compete with other clubs at the highest level in Europe. Paris Mayor Anne Hidalgo said after PSG's Champions League victory that she would be open to refurbishment works to increase the stadium's capacity, although she remains opposed to a sale. ___
