According to a report from Sky Sports CH journalist Sacha Tavolieri, newly promoted Premier League side Burnley have agreed a €14m deal to sign Lazio's French winger Loum Tchaouna (22). It was previously reported that the deal had hit some complications when new Lazio boss Maurizio Sarri wanted to keep the player, but the Clarets are now looking to complete the deal early next week.
Tavolieri previously reported that the 22-year-old is keen on a move to England, and was pushing to move to the Clarets this summer. A five-year contract is already on the table for the player.

Tottenham Hotspur Are Big Admirers Of This Crystal Palace Playmaker: Should Frank Go For Him?
Tottenham Hotspur Are Big Admirers Of This Crystal Palace Playmaker: Should Frank Go For Him? In a recent newsletter with Give Me Sport, respected journalist Fabrizio Romano revealed that Tottenham Hotspur are big admirers of Crystal Palace playmaker Eberechi Eze. Romano said, 'Tottenham love Eze, he's on the list for sure. But no final decision has been made yet.' Eze's Impressive Numbers At Selhurst Park Last Season The English talent enjoyed a decent run of form at the London club and managed to produce a string of impressive displays for them in the final third. Eze played in 43 matches for the Eagles last season, scoring 14 times and earning 11 assists in multiple competitions. Advertisement The 25-year-old was a decent performer in the opponent's half based on his average 3.48 shots per 90 minutes in the Premier League. However, he only kept 27% of his attempts on target. Eze distributed the ball relatively well after completing 74.2% of his attempted passes in league football (stats via Eze's current deal at Crystal Palace will expire in the summer of 2027 which could make it tough for Spurs to recruit him on the cheap this off-season. LONDON, ENGLAND – MAY 20: Eberechi Eze of Crystal Palace during the Premier League match between Crystal Palace FC and Wolverhampton Wanderers FC at Selhurst Park on May 20, 2025 in London, England. (Photo by) Should Tottenham Hotspur Boss Thomas Frank Go For Eze? Eze has got the pace to make some dangerous runs with the ball in the final third. He can shoot the ball with venom from long range and has got the eye to play some decisive passes on the offensive end of the field. Advertisement The English sensation can contribute by scoring his fair share of goals up top. However, he needs to work on improving his passing accuracy in and around the opponent's penalty area. Eze is primarily an attacking midfielder but can also fill in as a left-winger if asked to do so. We can expect Eze to add more firepower to Tottenham Hotspur boss Thomas Frank's frontline. He has what it takes to secure a regular first-team spot at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium next season. At 26, Eze has his best years ahead of him which makes him a good choice for Spurs to pursue this summer. He has already proven his worth in the Premier League and won't take much time to adjust to life at the North London club. All in all, Frank should focus on going all out to acquire Eze's services ahead of the new campaign.

Decathlon Canada to close nearly all Ontario stores. Here's where — and when
The Greater Toronto Area is losing another large retailer. This time it's the French sporting goods retail chain, Decathlon. Decathlon Canada announced on its website five GTA stores in Brampton, Burlington, Markham, Scarborough and Vaughan will close. The company currently operates six stores in Ontario. The Ottawa location will remain open. The closures are expected to happen sometime this summer, with the final date still to be determined. Decathlon Canada says it is evolving its retail strategy in the GTA. 'The retail landscape is changing, with consumers valuing variety across online and in-store formats,' the company said on its website. 'We are adapting our approach in key markets to deliver great value, quality gear and inspire more Canadians to enjoy the wonders of sport.' The company says it is 'staying agile' in its retail strategy and considering options for quicker, more efficient service — including the recently launched same-day shipping service, where products leave its warehouse the day customers in select regions place online orders. The company will also continue to operate 15 retail locations across Alberta, Ontario, Nova Scotia, Quebec and British Columbia and be available through online ordering. Affected employees will be considered for open positions in other markets, Decathlon Canada said. 'Decathlon Canada remains committed to making sport accessible to Canadians no matter where they live, and looks forward to sharing more about our retail evolution in the years to come,' the company said. More information is available on the company's website .
