Friendly: Lazio secure narrow 1-0 victory over Avellino

Yahoo11 hours ago
Lazio secured a narrow victory over Avellino in their second Pre-Season Friendly with a late penalty from Matteo Guendouzi, despite a largely uninspired performance.
The first half saw Lazio struggle to convert chances from Mattia Zaccagni and Matias Vecino, with a Taty Castellanos header disallowed. Maurizio Sarri made eight substitutions at halftime, completely revamping the squad, with the remaining original players eventually subbed off in the 62nd minute.
The second half continued with missed opportunities for Lazio and a crucial double save from Ivan Provedel to deny Avellino. The deadlock was finally broken in the 90th minute when Tijjani Noslin earned a penalty, which Guendouzi calmly converted for the win.

Man Utd's Mather looks for loan move abroad

Manchester United youngster Sam Mather is likely to look abroad for a loan move this season. Mather, 20, signed a new contract with United last summer after being part of their pre-season tour to the United States. However, he was overlooked for this summer's trip by head coach Ruben Amorim and, given the position he is most suited to is as a number 10, Mather knows his path to the first team is blocked. That means the Salford-born player will almost certainly go out on another loan this season. However, he wants to avoid a repeat of last season, when he went to Tranmere in January but only made two brief substitute appearances the following month. It is felt, at his age, Mather's technical abilities make him more suited to playing abroad than in the EFL, with the potential for a permanent deal likely to be part of any arrangement.

Report: Arsenal attacker attracting interest from Newcastle and Tottenham

Newcastle and Spurs Circling as Gabriel Jesus Faces Uncertain Arsenal Future Jesus Attracting Admirers Amid Arsenal Exit Talk Gabriel Jesus could be on the move, with CaughtOffside reporting that the Arsenal striker is attracting interest from several European clubs, including Newcastle United and Tottenham Hotspur. Despite being a significant signing for Mikel Arteta in 2022, the Brazilian has struggled to maintain consistency in North London—partly due to recurring knee injuries that have limited his form and availability. Photo IMAGO At 28, Jesus is entering a pivotal stage of his career. According to CaughtOffside, 'clubs like Milan, Barcelona, and Newcastle United are reportedly tracking his situation.' The article also confirms that Tottenham and Inter Milan are monitoring developments, although none have yet made formal approaches. Jesus has scored only 26 goals in 96 appearances for the Gunners—a return that's underwhelmed many fans and pundits, particularly given the lofty expectations that accompanied his move from Manchester City. Suitors Prepared to Wait on Fitness Clearance It seems most of Jesus's suitors are playing the waiting game. 'The lingering effects of a serious knee injury have made clubs cautious about making a move,' the report notes. As a result, the January window appears a more viable period for any serious bids to emerge. Palmeiras and Flamengo are also said to be keeping tabs on the striker's condition, highlighting the broad appeal he still commands both in Europe and South America. 'Several European sides have already initiated contact, but uncertainty remains over the timing of any deal,' CaughtOffside revealed, making it clear that his medical status could significantly shape the final outcome. Newcastle Could Use Jesus's Creativity From a tactical perspective, Jesus offers more than goals—he brings mobility, creativity, and the ability to link play. With Newcastle reportedly open to selling Alexander Isak if a significant offer arrives, there could be a clear pathway for Jesus at St. James' Park. 'Jesus is more than just a goal scorer, and he will add creativity and unpredictability to the Newcastle attack,' the original article stated. His versatility would also allow him to operate in various forward roles, which could prove valuable in a physically demanding Premier League campaign. Spurs Interest Raises Eyebrows Tottenham, too, are said to be in the mix, particularly if Son Heung-min or Richarlison were to depart. However, any deal would be viewed through the lens of fierce North London rivalry, making this an unlikely destination. 'A move for the Arsenal player would be quite surprising,' CaughtOffside concluded—a sentiment many fans would likely echo. Our View – EPL Index Analysis From a Newcastle fan's point of view, this link to Gabriel Jesus feels like an ambitious, albeit calculated, move. He's a name that carries Premier League pedigree, and if Eddie Howe is looking to diversify the Magpies' attacking options, Jesus could be an intriguing fit. With Alexander Isak targeted by Liverpool and Callum Wilson already departed, adding someone like Jesus—who can play across the frontline—makes sense. However, the big question revolves around his durability. The knee issues are a concern, especially for a side like Newcastle who need consistent performers week in, week out. Still, his experience at Manchester City and Arsenal means he knows the league inside out. While his finishing has drawn criticism, his link-up play and pressing ability align well with Howe's tactical setup. If the financial terms are favourable and the player is fully fit, this could be a smart piece of business. It's worth noting that Jesus brings Champions League-level experience, something Newcastle will need if they're to maintain their ambitions across multiple fronts. Should Isak stay, Jesus could still prove useful in rotation, particularly in congested fixtures. The January window might provide the clearest opportunity, and if the stars align, don't be surprised if St. James' Park becomes his next home.
