Saudi club to make huge Fernandes offer
Al Hilal are reportedly ready to pay a huge £100million transfer fee for Manchester United skipper Bruno Fernandes.
The Portugese playmaker is said to have until the end of May to decide whether or not he wants to join the Saudi Arabian outfit on a whopping £700,000-a-week deal.
It comes after Fernandes offered to leave Man Utd following the Europa League final if the club feel it's the right time to cash in on him.
Speaking after the 1-0 defeat to Tottenham in Bilbao, he said: "I have always been honest. I've always said I will be here until the club says to me that it's time to go.
"I'm eager to do more, to be able to bring the club the great days.
"In the day that the club thinks that I'm too much or it's time to part ways, football is like this, you never know it. But I've always said it and I keep my word in the same way.
"If the club thinks it's time to part ways because they want to do some cashing in or whatever, it's what it is, and football sometimes is like this."

Is Gunn answer to Scotland's goalkeeping question?
International friendly: Scotland v IcelandWhen: Friday, 6 June Where: Hampden Park Kick-off: 19:45 BSTCoverage: Watch live on BBC One Scotland and BBC Sport website & app, online text updates, listen on BBC Radio Scotland The guy who was most recently Scotland's first-choice goalkeeper is 42 and currently out injured. His likely replacement doesn't have a club. The next two in line - depending on your view of the pecking order - have been in and out of the Kilmarnock team this season and made just a handful of senior appearances other contenders for the position are either out of form or out of led head coach Steve Clarke to recently suggest that Scotland's lack of options in goal has been an Gunn will likely be the preferred choice for the impending friendlies against Iceland and Liechtenstein. But is he the answer longer-term? And if not, who is? What did Clarke say about it? The Scotland head coach admitted concern at the dearth of goalkeepers coming through when announcing the squad for these matches, adding that it had been "probably an oversight" given the quality of options over the past two pointed to the likes of the injured Craig Gordon, and the retired David Marshall and Allan McGregor as the kind of talent that currently just isn't answer, in his view, lies in giving young goalkeepers the opportunity to play competitively, earlier."A lot tend to be kept in squads to sit on the bench," Clarke said. "They are working with good people and learning good habits but only in training."Maybe we can find a way to get these young goalkeepers out to clubs in League 1, League 2, the Championship at an earlier age where they play and do well."The boys need a chance and, when they get a chance, they need to take it." Gunn encouraged by younger deputies Gunn returns to the squad for these friendlies and seems likely to start despite currently being a free agent after leaving Norwich 15 caps, he was first choice at Euro 2024 before injury struck, allowing Gordon to reclaim his spot. Now it's his chance to turn the duo Robby McCrorie and Cieran Slicker provide back-up, with the latter having played just 10 minutes as a substitute for Ipswich Town all made 20 Premiership starts for Kilmarnock, while the majority of Scottish top-flight goalkeepers come from other recent squad members such as Rangers Liam Kelly and Zander Clark at Hearts are also lacking game time."I wouldn't say there has been an issue," Gunn said on Tuesday. "I think the nation's been blessed with top goalkeepers for many years. Things happen in cycles. "The three guys here training with us this week all look top-quality young keepers but it's about experience and game time in big games."I was quite inexperienced when I came into the squad. Playing at the Euros was a big learning curve for me and a big opportunity. "Only things like that can help and benefit goalkeepers and without experience you're not going to get any better." What other options are out there? While it often proves futile to speculate on the next big thing, Clarke clearly thinks hope lies with Callan McKenna, who has joined the squad this week in 18-year-old was number one for Queen's Park in the Scottish Championship at the start of season 2023-24, before moving to join English Premier League side Bournemouth, where he is part of their development fact that Clarke has brought him into the fold supports the idea that experience of the international environment is key but not just in training over the longer and Slicker will undoubtedly do everything in their power to stake their claims over the coming days, but Clarke's openness on this subject suggests he believes he needs more options said, with World Cup qualification next on the agenda after this friendly double-header, Clarke will surely look to rely on experience in such a key position for the opening fixtures away to Denmark and Belarus.

Hamas fighters smash kneecaps of Gazan ‘food thief'... then post video
Hamas fighters have been filmed torturing a man alleged to have stolen food in Gaza. The graphic footage, circulating on social media accounts linked to the terror group, shows several figures standing over a blindfolded man as they use a metal bar to break his knees. The video comes as the terror group attempts to retain control of Gaza. Statements on Hamas -linked channels report multiple 'executions' of Gazans for taking food in recent days. The Strip was under a total blockade from the beginning of March until late May. Reports indicate that parts of the civilian population are approaching starvation. Aid is being distributed from four purpose-built sites in and around the southern area of Rafah via a controversial US private contractor, but the project has got off to a shaky start with reports of chaotic scenes and multiple killings, allegedly by the IDF, which Israel says it is investigating. There are increasing reports of both criminal gangs and ordinary Gazans looting aid lorries and warehouses. Israel said that bypassing the previous aid model – whereby food and supplies would be delivered directly into communities, but was vulnerable to theft by Hamas – is crucial to breaking the terror group's hold over the population. In Tuesday's video, the blindfolded man screams and writhes in agony as his joints are struck multiple times. Other footage that surfaced in recent days appears to show summary killings of civilians. The evidence is not published via official Hamas accounts and is difficult to verify. But the footage is often accompanied by warnings purporting to be from the terror group. One prominent account stated on Tuesday that 'security forces pursued thieves, executed four of them, suppressed 16 others, and shot eight' in central Gaza in the past 48 hours. Others suggested six people had been killed across the Strip. A message said: 'To every thief, every agent, every exploiter, and highway robber... This is our final message before your files are sealed with bullets.' Similar statements speak of 'field sentences' for defiant civilians, many of whom are named on the Telegram social media channel. Last week, it emerged that Hamas militants kidnapped, tortured and killed 22-year-old Oldai Naser Saadi, one of the leaders of the anti-Hamas protest movement in Gaza. He was reportedly tortured for four hours. His body was then dumped at his family's home. Despite the chaos, the Israeli government has lauded the new aid distribution system, delivered by the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, as crucial for breaking the 'fear barrier' among the population of Hamas. It is alleged that the terror group physically tried to prevent people from walking to collect aid as well as releasing propaganda against the GHF. The Telegraph has spoken to ordinary Gazans who say they are turning to theft of food from aid trucks because they are so hungry. During the height of the ceasefire in Jan and Feb, approximately 600 vehicles were entering the Strip each day. But figures suggest that over a 12-day period in late May the total number was just over 1,000.
