BBC News3 days ago
Portsmouth boss John Mousinho has confirmed that forward Callum Lang is expected to stay with the club despite reports linking him with a move."Lang will be a Portsmouth player," Mousinho told BBC Radio Solent after the side's 4-0 victory over Reading on the weekend."You can see on [Saturday's] performance that that isn't a player that's swanning away from the football club. That was a player who played very well on the night."Pompey also added two new names to the their teamsheet on Friday in midfielders Mark Kosznovszky and Luke Le Roux."We've worked hard this summer to make sure we've got the right players in at the right time," Mousinho added."There's plenty of work still to do, I think there's plenty of scope still in terms of the numbers we can bring in and also plenty of time."Listen to the full post-match interview with John Mousinho and more on BBC Sounds.

Lioness star Chloe Kelly's heartbreaking confession as she admits ‘I was in a dark place'

Chloe Kelly appeared on This Morning on Thursday (July 31) morning after the England team won the Women's Euros 2025 Final Lioness star Chloe Kelly admitted that she 'needed to find happiness again' as she opened up on a 'dark' time that left her falling out of love with football. ‌ The 27-year-old appeared on Thursday's (July 31) episode of ITV hit daytime show This Morning alongside hosts Dermot O'Leary and Rochelle Humes following the Lionesses' big win. ‌ The team recently made history as they won the Women's Euros 2025 Final for the second time, with Chloe stepping up to seal the deal with the winning goal for England. ‌ However it hasn't been a smooth journey for the footballer as she admitted to struggling with her maternal health at the start of the year. Chloe struggled to find her place at Manchester City and admitted that she didn't see 'a future' at the club, before being swooped up by Arsenal. ‌ Dermot went on to ask: 'Chloe, you went through a period where you almost quit the game. Did you have enough?' In an emotional moment, Chloe admitted: 'Mentally I was in a really dark place in January and I needed to find happiness again on and off the pitch.' She continued: 'I think that it's really important to look after your mental health and football felt so far away at the time. I went on loan to Arsenal and I found such happiness coming back to London. ‌ 'It's my city where I grew up, being closer to my family and everyday stepping onto the pitch with Arsenal I felt like my smile was coming back.' Dermot, who is a proud Arsenal fan jumped in: 'I can't tell you how much that makes me feel so proud to hear that by the way and to hear the words Arsenal.' ‌ Chloe replied: 'Thank you. As the months went by I could feel myself smiling again and it's really important as human beings. 'We are footballers but we are also human beings and I think happiness is important and it allows me to be at my best on the pitch.' The star added: 'The Euros felt so far away from me in January because I just wanted to be happy so now to be a European champion is incredible so I'm really proud.'
