'Diarra would be an ambitious signing'
[Getty Images] Leeds fans will get perhaps their first glimpse of potential new signing Habib Diarra when England play his Senegal side at Wembley on Tuesday. The White's £22m bid was reported by L'Equipe over the weekend, and is the first concrete offer that has come to light since this summer's window began. Advertisement The 21-year-old Diarra is a box-to-box midfielder who is strong in-and-out of possession and he progresses the ball with trickery in transition. Despite his age, the Senegalese international has three years of Ligue 1 experience; while he captained Strasbourg last season and his four goals and five assists was the biggest contribution of his young career. United's owners, 49ers Enterprises, are known for going about their transfer business very quietly. Signings like Ethan Ampadu and Largie Ramazani happened with very few rumours before those transfers were completed. The 49ers see this strategy as crucial to securing the best deals they can for the club. Advertisement Midfield was arguably the Whites strongest area in last year's record-breaking 100 point season. Club-captain Ampadu, instant fan favourite Ao Tanaka, Illia Gruev and loanee Joe Rothwell formed a brick wall in the Leeds engine room. But United have lost Rothwell and with the Premier League being a huge step up, it is vital the team is strengthened in all areas of the pitch. Diarra would be an ambitious signing and it is a measure of what the club think of him with the size of their opening bid. Having risen through the French team's academy to captain the club into Europe, Diarra may need convincing. But the Peacocks proved with May's parade what a sleeping giant they are, and Leeds in the Premier League will be a proposition for anyone. Find more from Adonis Storr at The Roaring Peacock

Canal+ to Distribute Netflix in Francophone Africa in Landmark Pact
Canal+ has signed a first-of-its-kind distribution deal with Netflix that will see the French pay-TV player carry Netflix content for countries across Sub-Saharan Africa. Starting next month, Canal+ will offer its subscribers across 24 French-speaking African countries Netflix original content, from global hits such as Stranger Things, Money Heist, Squid Game, and Emily in Paris, to the streamer's African production slate, which includes South Africa drama Blood & Water, Nigerian series Blood Sisters, and reality series Young Famous and African. More from The Hollywood Reporter Enzo Staiola, Child Star in Vittorio De Sica's 'Bicycle Thieves,' Dies at 85 Wes Anderson Shares How Indian Cinema Legend Satyajit Ray Shaped His Aesthetic Steve Gerben Talks 'Tires' Impact on Dad's Shop, John McKeever Explains That Whole "McKeever" Thing Canal+ is already a leading player in Africa, with operations in 25 countries through 16 subsidiaries and reported 8 million subscribers. The French group currently operates 28 pay-TV channels dedicated to African audiences. The French group is currently in the process of acquiring pan-African pay-TV group MultiChoice, the continent's largest pay-TV player, which operates in 50 countries with 19.3 million subscribers. Netflix does not break out its subscriber figures for Africa, combining them in the larger Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) region, but the streamer is estimated to have fewer than 5 million subscribers on the continent, with the vast majority of those in the English-speaking countries of South Africa, Nigeria and Kenya. 'Our millions of African subscribers will benefit from a unique offer, bringing together the best of Canal+ and Netflix content in a joint package,' said Pascale Chabert, chief content acquisition officer of Canal+, in a statement. 'This new agreement demonstrates Canal+'s ability to extend its unique super-aggregation model beyond the European continent.' During the pandemic-era streaming boom, Netflix, along with other global streamers, invested heavily in original African content in a bid to boost subscriber numbers and touted the continent, with its low streaming penetration rates and large, young population, as a future growth market. However, as Wall Street has changed its metric of success from subscriber growth to revenue per user, Africa slipped out of focus for the global streamers. Unlike Amazon Prime, which cut its investment in original programming on the continent, Netflix continues to back African originals, with such South African series as Kings of Jo'Burg and Fatal Seduction. Emma Lloyd, vp, partnerships EMEA at Netflix, said the Canal+ deal 'will allow us to reach even more people across French-speaking African countries. It's a big win for entertainment fans and part of our ongoing mission to make the member experience even better.' The Canal+ deal follows similar distribution agreements between Canal+ and Netflix for Poland and France.

Patrick Vieira signs Genoa extension
Genoa have announced that they have extended the contract of manager Patrick Vieira for a further two seasons. The former Arsenal midfielder joined the Italian side after close to a full season with French club Strasbourg after having previously been in charge of Crystal Palace in the Premier League. Advertisement I Rossoblù finished 13th in Serie A in the 2024/25 season with 43 points, which was enough to see the manager's deal extended. "It has been a very intense period since I arrived in Genoa last November," Vieira said about his new deal. "We managed to secure Genoa's stay in Serie A and finish the season with pride and determination, as this club deserves. "I am very proud of what we have built and achieved, all together. After the last game in Bologna we were always in touch with the club and the directors to analyse this season and prepare properly for the next one. "I am happy at Genoa and in Genoa. Extending our relationship was the most natural thing to do, it didn't take long to find an understanding and complete the bureaucratic formalities. Now it is time to enjoy some holidays, but we will continue to work behind the scenes to prepare for the start of next season."
