Barcelona tipped to launch move for 2nd Liverpool star
This comes amid the understanding that the Blaugrana have earmarked Darwin Núñez as a potential market opportunity.
Amid an ongoing search for reinforcments out wide this summer, Barca have of course been hotly tipped to move for Liverpool standout Luis Díaz for some time now.
As of yet, the Camp Nou brass have been unable to find an agreement for the Colombian, however, as their Reds counterparts stand firm in their considerable monetary demands.
And as alluded to above, as much could yet see Barcelona pivot their focus towards another member of Arne Slot's squad.
As per a report from , after Darwin Núñez's proposed move to Napoli fell through, Barcelona, as well as a trio of other clubs, have positioned themselves in the fray for the frontman's signature:
'Sources have confirmed to CaughtOffside that the 'strongest interest' comes from Saudi Pro League clubs Al Hilal and Al Nassr.
'However, it is also understood that Barcelona and AC Milan are keeping an eye on the situation and weighing up moves for the 26-year-old.'

Golf odds for 2026 majors: Scottie Scheffler early favorite after Open Championship win
The world's No. 1 golfer just won the final major on the golf calendar this year, and betting experts anticipate plenty more big wins on the horizon. Updated odds for the 2026 golf majors are out, and Scottie Scheffler is the familiar name at the top of every list. He is considered the favorite to win every major in 2026 coming off his 2025 Open Championship victory at Royal Portrush, according to BetMGM. It shouldn't be a surprise at this point. Scheffler was also the betting favorite entering all four majors this season. He also won his first PGA Championship in May. Scheffler only needs to win the U.S. Open to join Gene Sarazen, Ben Hogan, Gary Player, Jack Nicklaus, Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy as the only golfers in the modern era to win the sport's grand slam. 'Any doubts about Scottie Scheffler's British Open pedigree were emphatically squashed by the American at Royal Portrush with an effortless four-shot victory," BetMGM senior trader Matt Wall said. "BetMGM immediately shortened his 2026 Masters price to +400 from +500 and that could still shorten further should he continue to dominate on the PGA Tour. The comparisons with Tiger Woods certainly don't look out of place right now. All the early action is on Scottie to win all four majors at +25000, and he is the favorite in each one right now.' Here's a breakdown of the early odds to win golf's majors in 2026: What are the early odds for golf's 2026 major championships?

Watch: New Real Madrid signing arrives in Spain
Footage stemming from Spain's capital on Wednesday evening is no doubt set to spark excitement across the fanbase of La Liga giants Real Madrid. This comes after another of the club's new signings arrived in the city, ahead of being unveiled as a Blancos player. Advertisement The player in question? Trent Alexander-Arnold. Right-back Alexander-Arnold was of course announced as a new Real Madrid player late last month. The 26-year-old had since linked up with Thomas Tuchel's England national team squad, for a pair of fixtures against Andorra and Senegal. With their new defender's international commitments now complete, though, Real Madrid announced earlier today that Alexander-Arnold will be officially presented in front of the media on Thursday. And as alluded to above, late this evening, the former Liverpool standout touched down in his new home for the first time. In footage captured by El Chiringuito TV, Alexander-Arnold can be seen in the city of Madrid, entering a private car: Conor Laird – GSFN

'The relationship is simply too close' – Toni Kroos hints at possible return to Real Madrid
Toni Kroos' absence in the Real Madrid first team squad has been massively felt during the first three months of the 2024-25 season, and Carlo Ancelotti is still trying to fill the void that the German midfield maestro vacated during the summer. Kroos shocked many with the announcement that he would be retiring after Euro 2024. In his final season in football, he was arguably one of the best players in the world, so it is perhaps no surprise that Real Madrid are struggling so much in his absence. Advertisement Speaking on the 'Einfach mal luppen' podcast (via Diario AS), Kroos confirmed that he does not rule out returning to Real Madrid in a non-playing capacity, although it will not happen anytime soon. 'The importance of Real Madrid will always be the same for me. It was a stage that was too long, too big, too successful and also full of affection. That will always remain, I will always feel close to Real, there is no doubt about that. And I will always defend Real Madrid, I will always be on their side. That won't change, the relationship is simply too close. 'Placing myself publicly in the Real Madrid environment is something I would say that, at the moment, it is not a relevant issue for me. For now I would say: no, no matter how much I am linked to the club. But I'm not saying that I will never do anything with Real Madrid or have anything to do with the club again, I wouldn't rule that out, of course. In what function, that remains to be seen. But I don't rule out that at some point I could be seen again in some capacity at Real Madrid.' Kroos still lives in Madrid, where he now runs a children's football academy. A return to Real Madrid in the future would make perfect sense, but for now at least, it is not being considered.
