Glamorgan captain Northeast plans contract talks

Yahoo4 hours ago
Glamorgan championship captain Sam Northeast is to have contract talks with the club's management over extending his four-year stay at the county.
Northeast, 34, is out of contract at the end of the season and is also wanted by several other counties.
He has led Glamorgan within striking distance of promotion in the four-day format, scoring 780 runs in 10 matches in the current campaign.
But Northeast's family home, with two young children, remains in his native county of Kent where he spent his first 11 seasons as a professional before moving to Hampshire.
"I'm going to meet with Wally (director of cricket Mark Wallace) and Daws (coach Richard Dawson), and hopefully come up with something," he told BBC Sport Wales.
"There's time left in the season and I'm fully focussed on doing as well as possible for Glamorgan."
Any move away from Glamorgan for Northeast is likely to be prompted by his family situation rather than any playing reasons.
"I've just had another little one, there wasn't much sleep before the game at Lancashire, and I'll probably be going back to that situation as well. That's where it is, but I'm thoroughly enjoying my cricket at the minute," Northeast said.
He is expecting to sit out the first couple of One Day Cup matches but return for the bulk of the group campaign, after not featuring in the T20 Blast for the first time.
Former Gloucestershire and England Lions coach Dawson looks set to remain at Glamorgan, after being hastily appointed in January following the surprise departure of Grant Bradburn.
The county is yet to announce any arrivals, departures or contract renewals for 2026.

Premier League Summer Series: Stream Man United vs. Everton From Anywhere

Manchester United will look to maintain their perfect record so far in the Premier League Summer Series as they take on Everton on Sunday at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in the preseason tournament's final fixture. Below, we'll outline the best live TV streaming services to use to watch the game as it happens, wherever you are in the world, and how to use a VPN if it's not available where you are. Comfortable back-to-back wins over West Ham and Bournemouth have put Ruben Amorim's Red Devils in the driving seat at the top of the standings, with those two performances raising expectations of a much improved EPL campaign this term following last season's flirtation with the relegation zone. Everton fans, meanwhile, will likely be feeling far less optimistic after two concerning defeats in this Stateside series. A humbling 3-0 defeat at the hands of Bournemouth was followed up by another lacklustre loss against manager David Moyes' former club West Ham, with those performances underlining the Toffees urgent need for reinforcements before the transfer window closes. Manchester United take on Everton on Sunday at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta. Kickoff is set for 5 p.m. ET local time, 2 p.m. PT in the US. That makes it a 10 p.m. BST start in the UK and a 7 a.m. AEST kickoff in Australia on Monday morning. Ruben Amorim's Man United are the only side with a 100 per cent record in the Summer Series.

How to watch the Premier League Summer Series 2025 from anywhere with a VPN If you're traveling abroad and want to keep up with all the Summer Series action while away from home, a VPN can help enhance your privacy and security when streaming. It encrypts your traffic and prevents your internet service provider from throttling your speeds, and can also be helpful when connecting to public Wi-Fi networks while traveling, adding an extra layer of protection for your devices and logins. VPNs are legal in many countries, including the US and Canada, and can be used for legitimate purposes such as improving online privacy and security. However, some streaming services may have policies restricting VPN use to access region-specific content. If you're considering a VPN for streaming, check the platform's terms of service to ensure compliance. If you choose to use a VPN, follow the provider's installation instructions, ensuring you're connected securely and in compliance with applicable laws and service agreements. Some streaming platforms may block access when a VPN is detected, so verifying if your streaming subscription allows VPN usage is crucial.

Mimi Rhodes sinks hole-in-one off another golf ball at Women's British Open

Mimi Rhodes, you wizard. Tip your cap.

Chelsea sign 19-year-old Netherlands defender Jorrel Hato from Ajax

Chelsea have completed the signing of Netherlands defender Jorrel Hato from Ajax in a deal worth a reported £37million. The 19-year-old, who has been capped six times by his country, has signed a seven-year contract at Stamford Bridge. He becomes the Blues' eighth signing of the summer transfer window. 'I'm very excited, I'm so happy to be here,' Hato, who can operate in central defence or at left-back, told the Premier League club's website. 'I thought a lot about my future and wanted to take the next step in my career. Chelsea is the best place for me to do that so I'm very happy.' Hato joined Ajax's academy from hometown club Sparta Rotterdam in 2018 and signed his first professional contract aged 16 four years later. He scored four goals in 111 appearances for the Eredivisie giants, with his international debut coming as a substitute in a 6–0 win against Gibraltar in November 2023. Club World Cup champions Chelsea begin the new top-flight season on Sunday, August 17 at home to London rivals Crystal Palace.
