🩺 The Athletic: Real Madrid completely overhauls medical department
https://x.com/i/tweetdeck
Dr. Felipe Segura, present at the club since 2021, now assumes full control of the medical area. His leadership is expected to bring cohesion and a renewed focus on injury prevention and treatment, marking a change of course after the criticisms accumulated in previous campaigns.
Similarly, Dr. Manuel Arroyo, previously at Granada, has been hired and enjoys a great reputation.
With these initiatives, Real Madrid seeks not only to respond to an accumulated physical crisis, in which it suffered more than 50 injuries during the previous season, but to establish a new philosophy of prevention and consistent performance for the upcoming season

Hansi Flick praises transfer-linked Barcelona star
Barcelona head coach Hansi Flick on Monday made use of the opportunity to afford some praise to a transfer-linked member of his squad. The player in question? Héctor Fort. Defender Fort has of course seen his name continue to dominate the headlines in Catalunya's capital over recent days. This comes amid the understanding that the 19-year-old has been made available for transfer by the Camp Nou brass. Fort, nevertheless, was introduced off the bench en route to Barcelona's 5-0 friendly drubbing of FC Daegu earlier today, after also featuring against FC Seoul last week. Speaking to the media on the back of the full-time whistle at the Daegu Stadium, it therefore came as little surprise when the name of his young full-back was put to the aforementioned Hansi Flick. And the German tactician made use of the question to send some praise Fort's way, explaining: 'I'm pleased with what I saw from Héctor Fort. He trained well and played well the other day.'

Newcastle 'make' improved offer for RB Leipzig's Benjamin Šeško
Newcastle have submitted an improved second bid for RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Šeško according to the Athletic's David Ornstein. Their new bid is believed to be in the region of €80m up front, after an opening bid of €75m and €5m in add-ons was rejected by the Bundesliga club. The report states that the Slovenian forward is still wanted by Manchester United, but indications suggest there is an unwillingness to pay the same sum as the Magpies, which puts Eddie Howe's side in a strong position as things stand. Positive talks have also taken place between the clubs and the 22-year-old, but nothing is agreed yet and there is no guarantee of the outcome or the striker's preferred destination, with it still possible Šeško stays with Leipzig. Newcastle have signed only Anthony Elanga in a frustrating summer to date, with Alexander Isak returning to club training amid a desire to leave the club and serious interest from Premier League champions Liverpool. 📸 Maja Hitij - 2025 Getty Images

'Gross' - NFL Fans Aren't Pleased With ESPN's Newest Hire
'Gross' - NFL Fans Aren't Pleased With ESPN's Newest Hire originally appeared on The Spun. ESPN has undergone some major changes over the past several years as its said goodbye to some of its most recognizable faces and brought in new ones. And perhaps no hire has been more emblematic of the network's shift in culture than the recent hire of TikTok star Katie Feeney. On Monday, the Worldwide Leader announced the signing of the sports and lifestyle content creator as the potential bridge to a younger audience that may not engage with its favorite players, teams and leagues through traditional means. "Katie has built an impressive and authentic connection with sports fans by blending access, personality, and Gen-Z culture in a way that feels fresh and engaging," ESPN exec Kaitee Daley said in a statement. "Her perspective and creativity are a perfect match for how we're reimagining coverage to meet fans where they are, and we can't wait to see the energy she brings to ESPN's daily coverage and live event moments." Fans weren't exactly receptive to the "gross" hire on X. "It's incredible how out of touch ESPN has become," a user said. "Just like gambling, ESPN is years late to the 'lifestyle' content. There's zero chance they can compete with Barstool, Outkick, The Athletic, etc. ESPN's only path forward is returning to unbiased sports." "went to this chicks page to find out who she is and all her content is paid sponsorship man on the street interviews," another laughed. "ESPN got rid of around the horn to pay snapchatters for 30 videos ????" "14 million people and I have no clue who the hell she is," a fan admitted. "Talent means nothing in 2025 there are actors who can't get jobs because they don't have over 100k following on social media," another person posted. "ESPN firing talent left and right." "You go to school for journalism spend years mastering your craft. Katie is hot on Snapchat. You lost to Feeney," another user shared. "ESPN used to mean something man." "This channel used to air The Sports Reporters." There's clearly a bit of a generational divide when it comes to ESPN's embrace of social media (even if it tends to lean a bit on the cornier side). For what it's worth though, it seems like Katie has built a great brand for herself and we'll see what she's able to do in her new role.'Gross' - NFL Fans Aren't Pleased With ESPN's Newest Hire first appeared on The Spun on Aug 4, 2025 This story was originally reported by The Spun on Aug 4, 2025, where it first appeared.
