New role for Greg Abbott after Carlisle United departure

Greg Abbott has landed a new role in football after his departure from Carlisle United. The former Blues manager and head of recruitment has joined League Two club Harrogate Town. Abbott has joined the Yorkshire club's emerging talent and centre of excellence coaching team. The Sulphurites say Abbott will work closely with director of youth football Josh Falkingham, head of emerging talent centre Ryan Smith and the rest of their newly-formed coaching team. They will be charged with "driving the club's new player pathway strategy and develop players for the future." The move sees Abbott reunited with his former captain at Carlisle, Paul Thirlwell, who is Harrogate's assistant manager. It also sees the 61-year-old quickly back in the game after leaving his role as United's head of recruitment in May.

Abbott said the Harrogate opportunity came after a conversation with Thirlwell - adding that it was a refreshing new challenge after a "tough" latter period at Brunton Park. Speaking to Harrogate's official channels, he said: "I know Paul really well from my time at senior level. "He was laughing about me coaching under-13s, under-14s, saying 'you won't want to do that - you won't want to go back'," Abbott said. "[But] it really appeals to me. "The last couple of years have been tough. [Now it's] something a bit less stressful, a bit more enjoyable, and I enjoy seeing young players improve and develop. "I'm looking forward to it." Abbott, describing his return to Carlisle in his latter role, added: "It wasn't a great spell, it was hard work, but it is what it is - you have your ups and downs at football clubs. "I'm now at an age when I just want a little bit less pain and stress, enjoy my weekends a bit more." The former United boss also said his new role fits well with his family life as a grandfather.

Sauce Gardner dealing with sore calf, status for Jets' preseason game against Giants up in the air

New York Jets cornerback Sauce Gardner sat out the team's joint practice with the Giants on Wednesday because of a sore calf. Gardner participated in practice Tuesday at the Jets' facility in Florham Park but wasn't spotted during the teams' session at the Giants' facility Wednesday. "Sauce wasn't out (there) today," coach Aaron Glenn said after practice. "He had some calf soreness. We'll continue to evaluate him and see exactly where he's at." Gardner has been one of the Jets' best players since being drafted fourth overall out of Cincinnati in 2022. He was the AP Defensive Rookie of the Year and was an All-Pro selection in his first two NFL seasons. The 24-year-old Gardner had a slightly off season, by his standards, last year but is still considered one of the league's elite cornerbacks. Gardner signed a four-year, $120.4 million extension through the 2030 season, making him the NFL's highest-paid player at his position. He also is the focal point of a new-look secondary for the Jets, who have Gardner and free-agent signing Brandon Stephens at cornerback, with Michael Carter as the nickelback and free-agent signing Andre Cisco and Tony Adams at safety. The Jets don't have another full practice before their preseason game against the Giants on Saturday night. Glenn declined to say whether he would play his starters in that game -- "The plan is the plan," is all he would divulge -- so it's unclear if Gardner would participate even if healthy. Typically, teams play their starters for a quarter or a half in the second game, using it as a warmup for the regular season while backups typically play the final preseason game. Rookie quarterback Brady Cook, an undrafted free agent out of Missouri, was back on the field after leaving practice Tuesday with an ankle injury after someone stepped on his foot. He didn't participate in team drills. "Held him out, but I anticipate him playing this week," Glenn said. "So that's good." Cook is one of just three healthy quarterbacks on the Jets' roster, with starter Justin Fields and Adrian Martinez. Glenn announced Tuesday that veteran backup Tyrod Taylor had arthroscopic knee surgery and wouldn't play the rest of the preseason.

Done Deal: Athekame to undergo Milan medical on August 14

Milan have finalised their agreement with Young Boys, so Zachary Athekame is expected to arrive in Italy for his medical on Thursday. According to multiple sources including Sky Sport Italia and his plane will land on Milanese soil tomorrow at 11.00 local time. The cost of the operation is expected to be a total of €10m, plus giving Young Boys a 10 per cent cut of the future sale fee.

Athekame plays as a right-back and reportedly received offers from several other clubs too, but had his heart set on a move to Milan. It has been a busy time for the Rossoneri, who over the last 48 hours have sold Malick Thiaw to Newcastle United for €40m and purchased Koni De Winter from Genoa for €20m including add-ons.
