Tottenham 'informed' of negotiations between Son and LAFC
Son's move to the MLS has been widely reported this summer as LAFC look to sign the South Korean international as one of their Designated Players, with talks ongoing.
If finalised, this transfer would mark one of the most high-profile moves in Major League Soccer history. Son, 33, remains one of the most admired and commercially valuable footballers in the world. His move to LAFC would not only boost the club's chances on the pitch but would significantly elevate the league's global profile—especially in the Asian market.
LAFC has established itself as a destination for top-tier talent in recent years, but bringing in a player of Son's stature, both as a Premier League star and South Korea's national icon, would be a massive coup.

Gianluigi Donnarumma informed of Lucas Chevalier's impending arrival at PSG
Gianluigi Donnarumma (26) is being forced towards the exit at Paris Saint-Germain. The Italian's deal with the European champions expires at the end of the upcoming season and there has been no progress in talks over an extension. Desperate not to lose another high-value asset for free, as they did with Kylian Mbappé, PSG have the intention of selling Donnarumma. His replacement is already lined up and is closing in on a move to the Parc des Princes. Lucas Chevalier (23), a long-term target for PSG, will be his successor in goal. understands that PSG have now informed Donnarumma of the Frenchman's impending arrival at the club. They have done so in order to be open and transparent about the situation. As previously reported by RMC Sport, Luis Enrique has decided to make Chevalier his No.1 goalkeeper for the upcoming season. The message to Donnarumma is therefore clear. Forced towards the exit door, the Italy international is notably of interest to Manchester United and Chelsea. GFFN | Luke Entwistle

Financial Planners Share 4 Warren Buffett Tips To Take With a Grain of Salt
Warren Buffett is one of the most successful investors of all time. His long-term success, consistent returns, and timeless advice have inspired millions of investors. But while many of his investing principles are sound, they aren't always suitable for everyday investors. Read More: Try This: GOBankingRates spoke to financial planners to share Buffett's investing tips to take with a grain of salt. Here's where they recommend taking Buffett's advice with caution and why your financial plan may need a different approach. 'Never Invest in a Business You Cannot Understand' This sounds like no-brainer advice. But here's what many people miss: Buffett's investment decisions come from extensive due diligence, something that everyday investors don't have the time and tools to replicate. 'While it sounds like common sense, the challenge is that Buffett has access to deep research, management insights, and analytical resources that most individuals simply don't,' said Eric Blake, founder of Blake Wealth Management. 'The average investor doesn't have the time or tools to analyze a company's balance sheet, competitive moat or management quality in the way Buffett does.' 'It's Far Better To Buy a Wonderful Company at a Fair Price Than a Fair Company at a Wonderful Price' Buffett's focus on quality makes sense. But again, identifying 'wonderful' companies requires deep research and a strong understanding of the stock market. Most average investors don't have the time and experience to value companies. Trying to replicate Buffett's advice could lead to costly mistakes. For this reason, index funds often make more sense. 'That's why many of our clients — especially women who are retired, divorced, or widowed — should likely prioritize simplicity, transparency, and diversification through professionally managed portfolios and index-based strategies over picking individual stocks,' added Blake. 'Just Do Index Funds' Even Buffett's most democratized advice, 'just do index funds,' needs careful consideration. 'Many people cannot handle the volatility associated with the S&P 500 index,' said Jeremy Finger, founder of Riverbend Wealth Management. 'I was down 55%-plus in the 2008-'09 crash. Down 49% in 2000-2002. Down markets can be especially devastating if you are withdrawing money for retirement.' 'Not everyone has the emotional investing stability that Mr. Buffett has. Even if they think they do, many sell when it is down and hope to get back in later.' This emotional selling destroys long-term returns faster than any market crash. 'Only Buy Something That You'd Be Perfectly Happy To Hold If the Market Shut Down for 10 Years' While investors should always think long-term, not everyone can afford to wait a decade to see returns. 'Most of our clients can't afford to think in purely decades-long terms when they also have short-term spending needs or rely on their portfolio for retirement income,' Blake added. This is why many financial planners apply the '5-year rule.' If you'll need to spend the money within the next five years, it probably doesn't belong in the stock market. 'Buffett's advice is powerful, but context always matters. What works for a legendary investor managing billions with a 100-year view isn't always what works for someone planning the next 20-30 years of retirement, especially when that income needs to be reliable, tax-efficient and personalized,' Blake noted.
