Ⓜ️ Deal done, Millonarios keep hold of one of their stars
The 'Ambassador' has almost secured the continuity of Kevin Palacios to compete in the Liga BetPlay DIMAYOR 2025-II.
After their elimination in the Semifinal Quadrangulars of the Liga BetPlay DIMAYOR, Millonarios begins to work on the formation of their squad for the second semester and is very close to renewing one of their stars.

As reported this Sunday by journalist Mariano Olsen, the 'Ambassador' has a "principle of agreement" for the continuity of Kevin Palacios.
Palacios, 25 years old, will sign a three-year contract with Millonarios, who will exercise the purchase option from Fortaleza CEIF for 70% of his rights and the player must report on July 2 for preseason.
There is no doubt that Kevin Palacios has been one of the highest points in the team led by David González. The left winger went from less to more in his performances and when he was injured on Matchday 20, it created a big void for the capital team.

Since his arrival at Millonarios, Palacios has played 29 matches and has scored seven goals, being one of the most influential players in attack recently.

(Photo By Dennis Agyeman/Europa Press via Getty Images) Spain's two-time Ballon d'Or winner Aitana Bonmati has been discharged from hospital after undergoing treatment for viral meningitis and is expected to rejoin the squad in 'the coming days', the federation has announced. Bonmati's participation at the upcoming Women's Euro had been under doubt after the midfielder did not train on Thursday and was taken to a hospital in Madrid on Friday after being diagnosed with viral meningitis, an infection that causes inflammation near the brain and spinal cord. "Thanks to everyone for the messages I've received and to those who have helped me these past few days. Fortunately, everything is going well. I hope to return soon,' Bonmati said on Instagram on Sunday, sharing a photo of herself in a hospital bed with a thumbs-up. The 27-year-old missed Spain's final warm-up game ahead of the Euro – a friendly game with Japan on Friday in Leganes which the world champions won 3-1. The Spain squad headed to Switzerland on Sunday afternoon, with the Euro due to begin there from Wednesday. La Roja are scheduled to open their campaign against Portugal on Thursday, with Belgium and Italy their other opponents in Group B. Bonmati, winner of the Ballon d'Or in 2023 and 2024, is a key player of the Spain squad with 30 goals in 78 appearances. She played an important role in their 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup-winning campaign and the UEFA Nations League last year. Spain are playing at the Euro for only the fifth time, having enjoyed their best performance in 1997 when they reached the semi-finals. They reached the quarter-finals in their other three editions. Spain are one of the pre-tournament favorites, alongside defending champions England and record eight-time winners Germany.

The Mittlere Brücke as a playground for football and art

Since last week, five giant footballs have been decorating the Mittlere Brücke bridge. Klaus Littmann's temporary art installation 'Bridge Kick' marks the start of a smooth transition from Art Basel to UEFA Women's Euro 2025 BASEL, Switzerland, June 30, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Art Basel has barely come to a close, and the next highlight is already on the horizon: UEFA Women's Euro 2025. The temporary art installation by Klaus Littmann is a perfect example of how culture and sport go hand in hand in Basel: five giant footballs have been on display on the Mittlere Brücke since the start of last week under the title «Bridge Kick». The diameter of the oversized footballs corresponds to the width of the road, which is eleven metres. Due to their size, the balls have an impressive effect – both for passers-by on the ground and from a bird's eye view. The artist says: «With my temporary art interventions, I deliberately want to go where people are on the move. This turns public space into a projection surface for encounters, dialogue and new perspectives.» Five balls, five matches The number of balls refers to the five matches taking place in Basel, including the opening match on July 2nd and the final on July 27. Each ball represents a game and is both an eye-catcher and the bearer of a clear message. This is because one of the central elements of «Bridge Kick» is participation: before each game, the teams involved are invited to sign one of the objects on the bridge. This symbolic gesture is intended as an expression of mutual respect and shared experience beyond the competition. In this way, the entire installation could become a unique testimony to living cohesion – and the bridge itself a lively meeting place for fans and players. The link between the fan zones The fan zones at Barfüsserplatz and Messeplatz will open their doors this week, on July 1st, 2025 at 6 pm. The Mittlere Brücke will not only be a historical landmark, but also the connecting element between the two fan zones. «With this art intervention, we are generating the desired attention for women's football,» Sabine Horvath, the overall project manager of the UEFA Women's Euro in Basel, is convinced and adds: «Bridge Kick will create unique images of Basel on the ground and from the air that will go around the world.» More footballs to welcome guests at EuroAirport The same football motif has been rolling along the baggage carousels at EuroAirport since last week, greeting guests in a playful and creative way. The «Am laufenden Ball» installation was also created by Klaus Littmann and is a living symbol of the anticipation and football fever in Basel, the host city of the UEFA Women's Euro 2025. The installation is also part of EuroAirport's diverse welcome and advertising measures for the UEFA Women's Euro 2025 in Basel. Image material and further information Image material with drone footage for «Bridge Kick» (image source: Aviaticfilms) and photo and video material for «Am laufenden Ball» (image source: Klaus Littmann) are available. About: Klaus Littmann is an internationally active artist, curator and producer from Basel. Known for his large-scale art installations in public spaces, his work constantly challenges social perceptions and opens up new perspectives.

Former Wycombe Wanderers keeper signs for club competing in Europe

Nathan Shepperd (not pictured) did not play a first-team game for Wycombe (Image: Rhianna Chadwick) A former Wycombe Wanderers goalkeeper has found himself a new side which will be playing European football this summer. Nathan Shepperd, 24, who spent two months with the Chairboys between February and April 2024 after a successful trial period but never made an appearance, has been signed by The New Saints (TNS), who play in the Cymru Premier. Advertisement He joins his new team after spending the previous season at Queens Park Rangers. The goalkeeper was initially brought in at Adams Park by ex-manager Matt Bloomfield to provide emergency cover for Franco Ravizzoli, after Max Stryjek was sent off in a 1-0 away loss at Stevenage, which resulted in him serving a three-game ban. He was expected to be the third choice in South Buckinghamshire, but after the Argentine kept his position in the team and with Strjyek surplus to requirements and was loaned out to Crewe Alexandra in League Two, Shepperd became the club's number two. Shepperd was an unused substitute on eight occasions and was released 12 months ago. Advertisement The Welsh keeper was then snapped up by QPR, but again, never made a first-team outing for the Hoops. He is, however, expected to play some role in TNS' upcoming Champions League qualifier matches against Shkendija of North Macedonia at the start of July. He began his career at Cambrian & Clydach Vale before leaving them for Swansea City in 2012. The keeper would spend the next seven years with the Swans upon being released a few months short of his 19th birthday. A move to England followed as he was snapped up by Brentford and was a regular in the B team, being named captain and winning the 2019/20 Player of the Year award. His performances caught the eye of League of Ireland Premier Division outfit Dundalk in January 2022, and over the next two seasons, he would play 79 times before his move to Wycombe.
