Foot Mercato have previously reported that Galatasaray and AS Monaco are among his suitors, with both in the market for a new goalkeeper. They also note that Bułka is thought to be open to a move to the Principality. Monaco have made it clear that the position of Radosław Majecki and Philipp Köhn is currently under threat, with neither having impressed this season when given their chance in between the posts.

However, Cristian Chivu wants to add more depth to his squad, with Inter set to compete for trophies on multiple fronts. Although Rabiot would offer experience and quality, the Serie A giants prefer someone more versatile.

Iga Swiatek makes her ‘most extreme schedule' look easy at US Open with mixed doubles dominance
It has been what Iga Swiatek has called her 'most extreme schedule' after winning a tournament final. Following her 7-5, 6-4 final win over Jasmine Paolini to earn her first Cincinnati Open title on Monday night, the world No. 2 took a private jet along with Carlos Alcaraz to New York to arrive in time for the U.S. Open mixed doubles tournament Tuesday. 'Yeah, I stretched, did ice bath, quick shower, media, and after like [a] 1 ¹/₂ hour after the match, we already went to catch a plane,' she said at a press conference on the first day of the retooled two-day event. 'So that's it. Yeah, it was pretty fast.' Poland's Iga Swiatek celebrates winning the quarterfinal mixed doubles match with Norway's Casper Ruud against Italy's Lorenzo Musetti and Caty McNally of the U.S. REUTERS Swiatek landed around 1:30 a.m. and hardly slept before her first round mixed doubles match with Casper Ruud to face Madison Keys and Frances Tiafoe. Nevertheless, it didn't show on the court. The duo rolled through the American pair 4-1, 4-2 in their first-round win, then went on to swiftly beat Caty McNally and Lorenzo Musetti in the quarterfinals 4-1, 4-2. It was three victories in about 18 hours for the six-time Grand Slam winner. 'Honestly, it's much easier when you win a tournament because you have a lot of positive energy and adrenaline,' Swiatek said. 'No, I wouldn't say I felt that tired. I think I felt yesterday's match in my body because obviously the final is always, like, you get a little bit more tight. After the match, all the emotions, you can feel it in your body. … Also if I'm used to playing singles, then playing mixed doubles, it is less intense. You don't need to run that much. I'm enjoying it.' Poland's Iga Swiatek and Norway's Casper Ruud celebrate winning their quarter final mixed doubles match against Italy's Lorenzo Musetti and Caty McNally of the U.S. REUTERS Ruud admitted he was 'concerned' as Swiatek advanced further into Cincinnati, thinking their pairing may be in jeopardy with the tight schedule. Unbeknownst to Swiatek, he also was in contact with her team while the Polish player was competing in the final. 'We both prepared each other if we were to do well in Cincinnati, that something might happen. We said that early when we planned,' he said. 'I shouldn't have said that. I'm sorry,' a smiling Swiatek interrupted. 'I think it's her will in the end and she decided to show up here, which is wildly impressive because she got to bed 12 hours ago in her hotel in New York, and she is here,' Ruud added. 'She was here stretching, doing her warm-up at 10 a.m.' The world No. 12 Norwegian will hang on to Swiatek's winning ways for Wednesday's semifinal round where they will face Jessica Pegula and Jack Draper en route to the $1 million final prize pot.

Ferrari Reveals Approach to Help Hamilton Who is 'Extreme in His Outbursts'
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Scuderia Ferrari team principal Fred Vasseur has revealed an approach that could help a "self-critical" Lewis Hamilton, who is "always extreme in his outbursts." The seven-time world champion appeared dejected at the Hungaroring recently, where he said that he was "useless" and that Ferrari should look for another driver. Hamilton is finding it challenging to adapt to his SF-25 F1. While the early rounds of the 2025 season, such as his sprint race victory in China, suggested a promising premier class season ahead, the ground reality on the racetrack has been different. In Hungary, the Briton was knocked out in Q2 by securing P12 in qualifying, only to finish the race in the same position. The result was one of his worst since his Ferrari debut. Vasseur pointed out the need for Hamilton to "stay calm" and not allow the disappointing race result to affect his morale and confidence. In an interview with Auto Motor und Sport, Vasseur was asked what he could do to make Hamilton feel more comfortable at Ferrari. He said: Ferrari's British driver Lewis Hamilton (L) and Ferrari's French team principal Frederic Vasseur speak ahead of the first practice session for the 2025 Emilia Romagna Formula One Grand Prix at the Imola autodrome in Imola,... Ferrari's British driver Lewis Hamilton (L) and Ferrari's French team principal Frederic Vasseur speak ahead of the first practice session for the 2025 Emilia Romagna Formula One Grand Prix at the Imola autodrome in Imola, on May 16, 2025. More Marco BERTORELLO / AFP/Getty Images "Stay calm. Build on the fact that he's already taken the first step. Don't let things like Budapest get him down. Lewis is very self-critical. He's always extreme in his outbursts. "Sometimes he's too harsh on the car, sometimes on himself. He wants to get the most out of himself and everyone in the team. You have to calm him down and explain to him that in Q2 he was only a tenth behind the driver who later took pole position. That's not a big deal." Vasseur added that Hamilton's statements to the press make matters worse. However, he remains calm with the team. The team boss also emphasized that Hamilton's reaction was not drama but his way of demanding a lot, a point that Vasseur has no problems with. He said: "The message he sends out only makes things worse. He's usually only that extreme with the press. By the time he gets to the briefing room, he's usually calmed down again. That's just his way. For me, it's not a drama. He demands a lot. From others, but also from himself. I can live with that." Vasseur highlighted a similar experience with Nico Hülkenberg since his Formula 3 days. He added: "Nico Hülkenberg was the same when he drove for me in Formula 3. He demanded an enormous amount from the team. But he was also on the mat every morning at 6:30 a.m."
