Chelsea bring in Livia Peng as first summer addition
Chelsea have confirmed the signing of Swiss international goalkeeper Livia Peng from Werder Bremen on a four-year contract. The 23-year-old will officially link up with the Blues on 1 July, once her current deal expires, and is expected to compete with Hannah Hampton for the starting spot under new head coach Sonia Bompastor. Advertisement Peng arrives as a direct replacement for Sweden's Zecira Musovic, who is set to leave the club this summer when her contract runs out. Capped seven times by Switzerland, Peng previously enjoyed success at FC Zurich, where she helped the side secure league and cup doubles in both 2019 and 2022. She joined Werder Bremen in 2023 and quickly became their first-choice keeper, starting all but one of their Frauen-Bundesliga matches last season as they finished seventh. Speaking about his move, Livia said: "I'm excited about everything. I'm looking forward to meeting the team, the staff, and everyone at the club. The support here is so big, I can't wait to play at Stamford Bridge. Advertisement "I'm excited to meet the fans at the stadium. I've heard so many good things about them. I'm looking forward to seeing what the Chelsea family is like. I want to feel their passion and support."

Jodie Sweetin says Dave Coulier sent 'horrifying' 'Full House' AI image to costars: 'I didn't get it'
Dave Coulier is keeping that Uncle Joey spirit alive and well in the Full House cast group chat. Jodie Sweetin revealed that Coulier likes to liven things up via group text much like his character livened things up in the Tanner household during the beloved sitcom's run in the '90s. Most recently, the comedian shared an AI-generated photo of the cast as "goths," which Sweetin told PEOPLE was "horrifying" at first. "Like, aged-down goths. And for some reason, there was a Kourtney Kardashian lookalike in there who was supposed to be Becky," she added of the character played by Lori Loughlin. 'But me and the Olsen twins were the same age, except for Mary-Kate, who actually looked like she does today." Sweetin explained that the late Bob Saget, who played beloved patriarch Danny Tanner, was also in the image depicted as Geddy Lee, the lead singer of Rush. "It was just a very, very strange thing. Dave made a joke. I didn't get it," Sweetin said, adding that she eventually understood. "I was like, 'Oh, sorry actually, the joke was great.'" The reveal that the Full House cast keeps an active group chat alive came right before several cast members reunited for iHeartRadio's How Rude, Tanneritos! Wedding Special live event. Sweetin and her podcast cohost and castmate Andrea Barber hosted the Sunday event that saw former costars Loughlin, John Stamos, Scott Weinger, and Marla Sokoloff reflect on their time on the show. The event marked one of the handful of times the show's cast members have reunited since Saget died in 2022 from head trauma after accidentally hitting his head in a Grande Lakes, Fla., hotel room. Coulier was among the stars missing from the reunion, as were Sweetin's TV sisters, Candace Cameron Bure, and Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen. While Coulier couldn't make the live event, he has made an appearance on the How Rude, Tanneritos! podcast before. In April, he opened up to Sweetin and Barber about learning that he'd beaten stage 3 non-Hodgkin lymphoma and that his son, Luc, and daughter-in-law, Alex, had welcomed their first child together on the very same day. "I got the good news the day the baby was born," Coulier told his former castmates. "So I heard the news and I was so excited, and then Luc called us and he said, 'Hey, the baby just was born.' And so, I mean, it was an amazing day." Coulier noted that Luc and Alex welcomed a "healthy, great little baby" named Chance Lee. "He's 7 pounds, 6 ounces, and we will see him, I think, in 12 days," he added. "Because we're in Michigan and they're out in Sacramento."The comedian also recalled feeling like he'd accidentally "killed the moment" after delivering a real stinker of a joke in the family group chat following the announcement of Chance's birth. "I said to my son — everybody was teary-eyed and everything and [was] texting when the baby was born — and I said, 'I cannot wait to see that kid's expression on his face after he pulls my finger for the first time,'" Coulier recalled. "And there was just like, no one responded. It's like, 'Okay. I killed the moment.'" Thankfully, he explained that Luc messaged him back a few minutes later, telling him, "I just got that."

New Betting Odds Reveal Red Wings As Potential Landing Spot for Jonathan Toews
Blackhawks' Jonathan Toews aims return to NHL action next season with next team betting odds revealing surprising contenders. Image The three-time Stanley Cup Champion with the Chicago Blackhawks, Jonathan Toews is looking to make a return to hockey. The reports came as Toews is coming back after battling a number of ailments including long COVID and Chronic Immune Response Syndrome. Advertisement Toews was one of the league's best players in his prime with a dominant two-way game that labeled him as one of the best defensive forwards of his generation. Any team would be lucky to have his experience, veteran leadership and hopefully decent production on the scoresheet. No one knows where the now 37-year-old centre will go but new betting odds posted by several sportsbooks give us a subtle indication of where he might go. Jonathan Toews Next Team Betting Odds Per FanDuel Sportsbook Winnipeg Jets +210 Toronto Maple Leafs +300 Colorado Avalanche +470 Vegas Golden Knights +650 Edmonton Oilers +1100 Tampa Bay Lightning +1500 Detroit Red Wings +1900 Anaheim Ducks +2200 New York Rangers +3400 Dallas Stars +4500 Los Angeles Kings +4500 Washington Capitals +4500 Minnesota Wild +4500 Florida Panthers +4500 New York Islanders +5000 Calgary Flames +5000 New Jersey Devils +5000 Chicago Blackhawks +5500 Carolina Hurricanes +5500 Boston Bruins +6000 Bookmark The Hockey News Detroit Red Wings team site to stay connected to the latest news, game-day coverage, and player features. The leader is Toews' hometown of Winnipeg, Manitoba where he can play for a legitimate cup contender as well as be close to his family. One of the surprising names towards the top is the Red Wings, with the seventh-best odds at +1900, making them an intriguing option with one storyline in mind. Chicago's dynasty in the 2010s was highlighted by the dynamic duo of Toews and Patrick Kane. The duo hasn't played together since 2023 when Kane was dealt to the New York Rangers. A reunion would instantly become one of the league's most compelling storylines and could give the Red Wings a dependable second-line centre option. Advertisement It's been noted by several NHL insiders this off-season that the second line centre position will be one that many teams are looking to fill. The Red Wings are one of these teams in need with Marco Kasper and J.T. Compher being their only current options. Adding a player of Toews' caliber would be massive and would likely add some line chemistry by placing him with Kane once again. More Red Wings: Red Wings 2025 Free‑Agent Class: Breaking Down Patrick Kane, Alex Lyon and More Detroit has just $23.1 million in cap space heading into the off-season, which means they'll potentially have a chance to land the longtime Blackhawks captain However, they could be outbid, as the Red Wings will likely need to prioritize their spending elsewhere such as re-signing Kane before exploring other free-agent additions. Advertisement Kane remaining with the team could help entice Toews to join Detroit, offering him the chance to reunite with a familiar face while becoming part of a team trending toward playoff contention.
