🚨 BREAKING: Five-star Barcelona down Como in Joan Gamper Trophy win

Hansi Flick's Barcelona closed out their pre-season preparations ahead of the 2025/26 La Liga campaign with a resounding 5-0 Joan Gamper Trophy win over López 21', 35', Raphinha 38', Yamal 42', 49' Blaugrana got off to an expected start when Fermín López became the chief benefactor of the high press, winning possession in Como's defensive third before slotting a pinpoint effort into the bottom corner past Jean Butez 21 minutes into the action. López would pop up again to find his second goal of the evening in the 35th minute with a long-range effort from outside of the box before Raphinha made it three-nil soon after, thanks to a lovely darting run into the box by Marcus Rashford before he squared across goal for the Brazilian to tap home. And it would not be a Barça result without a goal from Lamine Yamal either, with the Spanish wonderkid jumping in to make it 4-0 from close range after Raphinha turned provider. Ferran Torres would come on to replace Rashford at the half, and it didn't take the forward long to link up with Yamal for the youngster to complete a brace of his own just four minutes after the restart. Cesc Fàbregas' side had chances of their own, but few could hold the result against the Italian minnows, with Barça looking primed for the new campaign. From then on, Barça coasted to secure an emphatic result ahead of their La Liga curtain raiser on the road at Mallorca, with Como also in action next weekend when they meet Serie B outfit Südtirol in Coppa Italia. 📸 Judit Cartiel - 2025 Getty Images

Nottingham Forest hold talks on move for USMNT's Yunus Musah from Milan

Nottingham Forest are in talks with AC Milan over a move for midfielder Yunus Musah. Club-to-club talks are taking place, while personal terms for the U.S. international are not expected to be an issue. Musah, who has played 80 games for Milan across two seasons, started in each of his side's friendlies this weekend — Saturday's match against Leeds United in Dublin and against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Sunday. The 22-year-old joined Milan from Valencia in the summer of 2023 despite interest from Premier League clubs Fulham and West Ham United. Massimiliano Allegri has returned to Milan as head coach following a turbulent campaign, in which the 19-time Italian champions recorded an eighth-place league finish and lost the Coppa Italia final to Bologna. Milan also appointed Igli Tare as their new sporting director. Tare said of Musah's future earlier this summer: 'I consider Musah an excellent player, but we are looking for profiles with characteristics that fit the project we have with coach Allegri. Advertisement 'We are seeking deep-lying midfielders for a three-man midfield. Musah doesn't have these characteristics. He can play in a two or three-man midfield but with different characteristics. This is the real reason why we want to do something different.' Forest had also been weighing up a move for Douglas Luiz of Juventus, with head coach Nuno Espirito Santo keen to add a midfielder to his squad following the sales of Danilo and Lewis O'Brien to Botafogo and Wrexham respectively. Forest have signed four players so far in this summer window, with Bologna's Dan Ndoye, Botafogo duo Igor Jesus and Jair Cunha, and goalkeeper Angus Gunn all joining Nuno's squad. The midfielder came through Arsenal's academy before joining Valencia in 2019. Musah made 108 appearances for Valencia over three seasons, scoring five goals. Musah, who represented England up to under-18 level, has played 47 senior matches for the U.S. since making his debut, aged 17. He, alongside Pulisic, was omitted from Mauricio Pochettino's squad for this summer's Concacaf Gold Cup. Milan begin their season with a Coppa Italia tie against Bari on August 17 before opening their Serie A campaign against Cremonese six days later. (Joe Puetz/) Spot the pattern.

Forrest serves up a double Scotch as he wins on home soil again at Nexo Championship

When you're drinking the celebratory champagne, nobody cares how you got the cork out of the bottle. Grant Forrest was the toast of the Trump International Golf Links last night as the Scot won the Nexo Championship. A closing double-bogey seven on the last was not what you'd call a grandstand finish, but Forrest had done the hard work and could afford his little luxury of a few extra blows down the 18th. He was leading by six shots, after all. Scottie Scheffler won the Masters in 2022 with a four-putt double-bogey on the last and most folk have probably forgotten about that. Forrest won't be dwelling on his own double either as he savoured the second DP World Tour win of his career, four years after his first in the Hero Open at Fairmont St Andrews. He likes the home comforts. A level-par 72 gave Forrest an eight-under aggregate and a four-shot victory over England's Joe Dean. The 32-year-old also picked up a cheque for £298,600. He also picked up his seven-month-old son, Spencer, in jubilation before getting his hands on the trophy. Wee Spencer may already be thinking of what faither can buy him as a treat This was a terrific week for Forrest. A season of toil has suddenly been energised as he became the third Scottish winner on the circuit this year, after Calum Hill at the Joburg Open and Connor Syme in the KLM Open. Coming into the latest stop on the DP World Tour, the former Scottish Amateur champion was down in the danger zone in terms of tour status. His win has hoisted him up into 28th spot on the rankings and, all of sudden, he's looking upwards instead of peering over his shoulder. 'Both wins are special, but this feels even more so, having the wee man here along with the whole family,' smiled Forrest as he savoured his latest victory on Scottish turf. "I think it is the same week as I won four years ago on the calendar so just amazing. That must say something about this week and being at home. "It was a tough day out there today. I didn't play my best stuff at all but made a lot of good par saves on the front nine. "I just can't believe it. It's been such a tough year on the golf course. It's just a crazy game that you can go and come out and do this, with what feels like something out of nowhere. "It certainly has (turned my season around). I was way down the rankings a couple of months ago, tried to play a bit better but at this stage of the season, I was right on the bubble. "It's just that old chestnut that one week can turn things around and it has." Forrest had led by three shots overnight and that was swiftly reduced to two when he parred the first but Daan Huizing and Todd Clements both birdied. That would be as close as anyone got, though. On another tricky old day, there were always going to be some hairy moments, particularly with a title on the line, but Forrest dug in. A couple of birdies at the fourth and seventh certainly settled him down and by the time he reached the turn, he was six shots clear. He may have had the kind of large, comfortable cushion that you'd get in a Bedouin tent but, with menace and mischief lurking all over the links, there was no room to relax. The 12th hole could've been particularly costly when he plunged his ball well right into the thick stuff and had to take an unplayable. Forrest's recovery, though, was terrific and he managed to escape with just a bogey. There was no real damage done. A couple more good par saves at 16 and 17, couple by leaked shots from those making a forlorn effort to close the gap, ensured that Forrest held a six-shot lead standing on the 18th tee. No lead is big enough, though. With the nerves building up on that daunting, elevated tee, Forrest hoiked his drive into the hazards and had to take a drop. He still had plenty of shots to play with and there would be no Jean van de Velde-style farce. He inched his way up the 18th and polished off the victory. It was the best double-bogey seven of his career. 'It was a day where I thought it was going to be tough for someone to chase,' added the new champion. 'I knew that if I didn't drop any shots, there were going to be plenty of good chances for me and I managed to do that for the most part. 'Even the bogey on 12 after the tee shot is something I'd have taken and then I made good saves on 16 and 17 as well to give me a good cushion coming down 18.' The bubbly was richly deserved.
