Shomurodov agrees to wage cut to extend Roma contract
Roma striker Eldor Shomurodov has reportedly agreed to take a wage cut in order to sign a new contract extension at the Stadio Olimpico, despite having almost left twice already this season.
Reports Shomurodov takes pay cut and extends Roma contract
According to reports from Calciomercato.com, Shomurodov has already signed a one-year extension to his current contract, which had been due to expire in the summer of 2026. That means that the new deal ties him to the Giallorossi until 2027.

2025 has arguably brough Shomurodov's best performances in a Roma shirt. Having spent 2023 and the 2023-24 season on loan with Spezia and Cagliari, the Uzbek centre-forward almost joined MLS side Atlanta United, but that fell through due to a bureaucratic error.

He had also been close to joining Venezia during the January transfer window.
However, with an injury to Artem Dovbyk in the early stages of 2025, Shomurodov was given a consistent run of playing time under Claudio Ranieri, and has now scored five goals across all competitions since the end of January, proving a reliable back-up option after Dovbyk's return.

Domino's and Pizza Hut rival makes ‘first-in-decade' menu change
There was a time when people would say that any pizza was pretty good, even some of the worst takeout and frozen options. Consumers ate bad pizza (or decent pizza depending upon how you look at it) because it was the best option. Calling Domino's (DPZ) for delivery, or pulling out a frozen pizza from the back of the freezer (or maybe even stooping pizza rolls) was the best late-night option. In some markets, it was the only delivery choice. Related: Popular dessert, fast-food chain survives Chapter 11 bankruptcy Bad pizza was better than cooking, especially if you had limited ingredients to work with. Food delivery services changes all of that. Now, Uber Eats and DoorDash will bring you sushi, Italian food, Chinese, and who knows what else until fairly late hours. You can also order pizza from local places , and the competition for your food dollar has increased. Don't miss the move: Subscribe to TheStreet's free daily newsletter Delivery from Uber Eats and other services, however, is expensive and many consumers have been tightening their budgets when it comes to food. People who used to order higher-end pizza, might opt for Domino's or Pizza Hut, while those chains may lose customer to frozen pizza. Now, a leading player in the space wants to give people a mix of value and gourmet that may fit the current market really well. DiGiorno has long-used the catchphrase, "it's not delivery, it Digiorno." They saw that as a positive, some customers saw it as an apology. Sure, I could have gotten delivery, but instead I opted for this frozen pizza. It's either lazy or insulting, but not person actually needs to be told they're eating a frozen pizza. DiGiorno has marketed itself as premium frozen, which it is, but it's all relative. The company offered a superior product to much of what you see on grocery shelves. It's better (to most) than Elio's, Red Baron, and many of the other offered brands.

DiGiorno may also be better than some freshly-made frozen in-house pizza brands, but many Publix and Fresh Market fans might argue that. DiGiorno was upscale in that it was higher-quality than most of its rivals. Now, the Nestle-owned company wants to put a flag in the sand. It does not want to just say it's better. It actually want to be better. Premium frozen pizza is a bit like saying, "that's the best gas station sushi I have ever had. Still, DoGiorno has made a real bid to offer something better. The company has added a new line, Wood Fired Style Crust Pizza. "This all-new pizza from DiGiorno features premium toppings and a perfectly crisp crust that serves up restaurant-quality taste fresh from your oven. Previously baking the crust at high temperatures to achieve a perfectly chewy and lightly charred texture, the DiGiorno Wood Fired Style Crust Pizza elevates the at-home pizza experience offering a dough with rich flavor, airy structure and the perfect bite," the company shared in a press release. Related: Popular local Dairy Queen rival suddenly closing, no bankruptcy The U.S. pizza market is nearly $55 billion, but less than 20% is frozen pizza. In a time where budgets are getting tighter, DiGiorno may be hitting a space in offering a mix of quality and value. The company will offer four flavors: DiGiorno Wood Fired Style Crust Four Cheese Pizza features a rich blend of cheeses-Romano, Asiago, Mozzarella, and Wood Fired Style Crust Italian Meat Trio Pizza includes a curated blend of pepperoni, salami, and Italian Wood Fired Style Crust Supreme Speciale Pizza is a vibrant celebration of flavors featuring generous layers of savory pepperoni and sausage and topped with a medley of colorful vegetables-green, yellow, & red peppers and Wood Fired Style Crust Premium Pepperoni Pizza is stacked with rich, zesty pepperoni on a crispy, lightly charred crust. All four DiGiorno Wood Fired Style Crust Pizza varieties will be available at retailers nationwide for an MSRP of $6.49 (prices may vary by store) starting in May. Some have hailed this as a "first-in-a-decade" change. "Frozen pizza hasn't seen a major innovation in a decade when stuffed crust hit the market, Graves said. Before that, it was rising crust, which was developed by DiGiorno in 1995," FoodDive reported. The Arena Media Brands, LLC THESTREET is a registered trademark of TheStreet, Inc.

Maserati ready to present new business plan very soon, brand boss says
MODENA, Italy (Reuters) -Maserati plans to present a new business plan shortly, soon after parent company Stellantis' new CEO Antonio Filosa officially starts in his job later this month, the head of the struggling luxury carmaker said on Thursday. The loss-making Italian brand, the only one in the luxury segment for the world's fourth largest automaker, has no new model launches scheduled at the moment, with Stellantis reviewing Maserati's strategies after a previous business plan was put on hold last year. Maserati CEO Santo Ficili said the plan was being finalised and would not just include new products but also redesign relations with dealers and the assistance network. "We have clear ideas about what we want to do, we hope we can be ready very soon," Ficili said at the Motor Valley Fest in the Italian city of Modena, where Maserati is headquartered. "Let's wait for Antonio to take up his job," he added. Stellantis last week named its North American chief Filosa, an Italian national, as its new CEO. His appointment will be effective from June 23. "Antonio loves the (Maserati) brand, I am sure we'll do great things," Ficili said, adding Maserati will continue to design, engineer and manufacture all its models in Italy. Asked about market speculation that Stellantis could assess a sale of Maserati amid poor results and falling sales, Ficili reiterated the group had no plans at all to divest from it. Ficili, who is also the head of Stellantis premium brand Alfa Romeo, said a review of the Alfa plan was imminent too. The group has hired consultant McKinsey to advise on strategies for Maserati and Alfa Romeo as they face a hit from U.S. tariffs. Maserati makes around 30% of its sales in the U.S., while Alfa Romeo generates some 15%.
