The first time was so nice... ...Bayern might have to do it twice! According to Football Insider, Bayern Munich are looking to go shopping at Crystal Palace once again this summer. Michael Olise made the switch from south London to Munich last summer, and has been a revelation for the German side, as they recaptured the Bundesliga title from Bayer Leverkusen. With Florian Wirtz likely to be on his way to Liverpool, Bayern now turn their attention to other targets, with Eberechi Eze a potential target for the side.

Nurse reveals the ‘worst baby name ever' and confesses ‘it keeps me up at night'
FINDING the perfect name for your little one isn't always easy. You could go the classic and traditional route, or push the boat out and give them a much more unique moniker. 2 Either way, the name parents give their newborns will definitely be judged by strangers, friends and family. But there's one name more likely to receive some of that harsh judgement. This comes after one Reddit user revealed the name nurses from their local delivery centre deemed it the 'worst name'. Apparently, one baby was unlucky enough to be called Richie Rich Putin. The moniker is a combination of actor Macaulay Culkin's 1990s film Richie Rich and the last name of Russian president, Vladimir Putin. 'I used to think the name laws are more strict [in Germany] than in other countries,' the Reddit user wrote. 'The city will decide whether the name you chose is an actual name or the child will be bullied for it.' But somehow, little Richie Rich Putin wasn't picked up on by authorities. 'Just felt like I had to share that while lying awake thinking about my soon-to-be-born child's name,' they added. But after sharing the unusual name on the social media site people couldn't believe any parent would really use the name on their bundle of joy. Peppa Pig's Mummy Pig gives birth to third baby as GMB reveals first pic and piglet's sweet name 'Do parents really hate their child that much? Or do they think it's funny and don't think it through for the kid's future?" one person commented. "That poor child. Can you imagine all oligarch bootlicking that must go on in its home," a second said. Meanwhile, someone else said: "Wow, and they gave my mom sh*t back then because my name apparently wasn't masculine enough. "They tried to get her to give me a more traditional German middle name. She stood her ground long enough that they gave up." But the name isn't the only unusual one that cause a stir online recently, as one mum decided to name her son after a mode of transport. Taking to Reddit, the mum-to-be's concerned cousin revealed that she was desperate to talk her out of the unusual name. She said: "I just got invited to the shower for my cousin's baby, and she's naming the baby... "Trucklyn. "No one is saying anything in the group chat about the fact that they're going to name this baby Trucklyn. "I think I have to go to the baby shower to try and get them to change it, or at least figure out why." The cousin added that she had tried to figure out if the name was a joke, but had so far been unsuccessful. Reddit users flooded the comments section with their thoughts, with many critical of the unique moniker. One person said: "It is your duty to try to convince them to change the name. A second person said: "Poor kid wont stand a chance." The struggle of choosing a baby name CHLOE Morgan, a Senior Writer at Fabulous, has revealed her dilemma on choosing a baby name... At 35 weeks pregnant, by far the trickiest part of pregnancy for me in the past few months (minus the insomnia and countless night-time wee breaks!) has been trying to decide on a baby name. The dilemmas are endless... My partner and I went for a private scan to find out the gender as early as we could - partly due to the fact we thought it would make baby naming so much easier because we'd only have to come up with a list of names for one gender rather than two. How wrong we were... I was absolutely thrilled to be told I was expecting the baby girl I'd already dreamed of, but being one of the last of my friends to fall pregnant, I've had countless conversations over the years with excited pals discussing their top baby which I wish I could go back in time and un-hear. With each friend mentioning at least 10 possible monikers, I can't help but feel like several are now a no-go even though I know it's something that none of them would mind in the slightest - it's a total me problem! The debate comes up time and time again on social media forums - can you choose the same name that was a "potential" for a friend's baby? It's a very divisive topic and opinions are always I don't want to be THAT person. While some will argue there's thousands of other names out there to choose from, others will say you need to choose YOUR all, there's no guarantee that person will even have another baby. Then there's also the issue of finding a name you to research it online and read one negative comment amongst hundreds of positives that you just can't shake off. I made that very mistake when I fell in love with a certain name (I won't reveal it because I don't want to ruin it for others!) ...only to see someone point out that it constantly gets autocorrected on a phone to something rather rude instead. So, back to the drawing board we went.. Just five weeks to go and it looks like our little one is going to be known as 'baby gal' for a little while longer!
