Could Lionel Messi finish career in Italy? Indonesian billionaires eye ‘dream' transfer
The president of ambitious Serie A side Como has said signing Lionel Messi would be a 'dream'. The Argentina captain's contract with Inter Miami runs until the end of the 2025 Major League Soccer season and is reportedly in negotiations. Como have the richest owners in Italy in billionaire Indonesian brothers Robert and Michael Hartono, who have ambitious plans. With Cesc Fabregas as manager, they shocked many by finishing 10th following their promotion to the top flight. And club president Mirwan Suwarso, also from Indonesia, outlined the club's vision. 'The brand here is Lake Como and with that, we hope to attract Hollywood stars,' he told La Stampa. 'It's not us who invite them; they come to Como on holiday and ask us if they can come to watch a match.' Cesc Fabregas shouts instructions during Como's friendly against Lille. Photo: AP Keira Knightley, Adrien Brody and Hugh Grant are just some of the A-list Hollywood actors who came to watch Como live last season, while Messi's wife Antonela Roccuzzo was spotted with their three children during the Italian side's pre-season clash with Lille last weekend.

Is Alexandra Saint Mleux sport's most fashionable WAG? F1 driver Charles Leclerc's girlfriend is known for her race day looks by Sau Lee and Jacquemus – and has partnered with Rhode and Meshki
Alexandra Saint Mleux may not be getting behind the wheel on race weekends, but she's certainly one of the most recognisable faces in the Formula One paddock. The 23-year-old girlfriend of Ferrari driver Charles Leclerc has claimed her title as the sport's 'It girl' with her impeccable style and elegant demeanour. Alexandra Saint Mleux, Formula One star Charles Leclerc's girlfriend, is known for her impeccable style. Photo: @alexandrasaintmleux/Instagram While she maintains a career in arts – she studied the subject and currently runs an art-focused Instagram page – Saint Mleux's eye for fashion is what's getting her plenty of attention. In just over a year, Saint Mleux's previously private Instagram account skyrocketed from under 1,000 followers to nearly 2.5 million, thanks largely to her incredibly chic appearances at numerous Formula One races and events. That fashionable profile has catapulted Saint Mleux into partnerships with a range of well-known brands – she's worked with Hailey Bieber's Rhode and in May, debuted her resortwear collection with Australian label Meshki during the Monaco Grand Prix weekend. Advertisement From China to Italy and the UK, here are five recent looks that have cemented Saint Mleux's status as F1's style icon. Cheongsam-inspired Sau Lee dress in Shanghai, China In March, Alexandra Saint Mleux stunned fans at the Shanghai Grand Prix when she showed up at the paddock wearing this dress by Hong Kong label Sau Lee. Earlier this year, Saint Mleux stole the spotlight at the Shanghai Grand Prix with looks that paid homage to Chinese heritage. On March 21, she stepped into the paddock wearing a black minidress by Hong Kong-based label Sau Lee that featured a Mandarin collar and red knotted accents in a nod to the traditional cheongsam. She added a modern twist with red ballet flats and dark sunglasses, perfectly matching the outfit's colour palette. For the finishing touch, Saint Mleux blended fashion, motorsport and romance by carrying a custom Ferrari Style Maranello clutch inspired by Leclerc's personal Daytona SP3. She ended the weekend with a soft pink co-ord that featured another cheongsam-style top, and Sau Lee's Vanessa midi dress in black, which she paired with a Saint Laurent Cinq-a-Sept mini bag and patent leather stiletto boots.

Trump in Scotland for golf and trade talks amid hopes of EU deal
US President Donald Trump, dogged by questions about his ties to disgraced financier and sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, arrived in Scotland on Friday for some golf and bilateral talks that could yield a trade deal with the European Union. Trump told reporters upon his arrival that he will visit his two golf properties in Scotland and meet with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, whom he called a 'highly respected woman.' As hundreds of onlookers cheered his arrival, Trump repeated his earlier comment about a 50-50 chance of securing a deal with the EU, adding it would be his administration's biggest trade agreement thus far, if it came together. However, he said there were still 'sticking points' with Brussels on 'maybe 20 different things'. Trump said his meeting with Starmer would be more of a celebration of the trade deal already reached than continued work on it, adding: 'It's a great deal for both.' Before he left Washington, Trump said his administration was working hard on a possible trade deal with the EU, and Brussels was keen to make a deal. Von der Leyen said later she would meet Trump in Scotland on Sunday.
