Emma Raducanu sparks injury concern after suffering ANOTHER back problem on the eve of the grass-court season - as former British No1 shares 'pretty low expectations' for Queen's
Emma Raducanu has raised injury concerns on the eve the grass-court season after admitting that she continues to have issues with her lower back and fears that her body may not hold up over the next the month. The former US Open champion had suffered back spasms during her Australian Open preparations at the beginning of the year, before being troubled by a recurrence in Strasbourg against Danielle Collins last month. But the issue could yet colour her time on the turf, with the former British No1 disarmingly open about her 'pretty low' expectations ahead of the inaugural WTA 500 event at The Queen's Club this week. Raducanu shared that after taking two days off after her second-round defeat in Paris to Iga Swiatek, her preparations on grass took a 'small interruption' when she suffered another back spasm. 'I can't really predict the future, how it's going to be,' Raducanu said when asked about how confident she felt with her body. 'I've been managing my back for the last few weeks now, and it's something that comes and goes. 'Overall, I just have to manage what I can take care of when these things happen, I just need to deal with it and just keep doing the right things. The player will feature at the revamped Queen's this week but has suffered another injury recurrence in the build-up 'It can be frustrating. I think when I was playing in Strasbourg in my second-round match, it definitely hindered me, and first round in Paris that I got through. 'And I think that just having to manage it, knowing that it keeps coming back (is frustrating). 'But I try not let it get to me, because I think I have a pretty good feel of what to do and how to manage it (when it happens). It does take a few days out, but all I can do is kind of deal with what's in front of me.' Despite the looming concern of injury however, Raducanu will take part in both the singles and the doubles events, teaming up with British No1 Katie Boulter for the first time in her career. Raducanu admitted that she was 'excited' to play with her Billie Jean King Cup team-mate, but hoped that Boulter might 'just tell (her) what to do' due to her inexperience in the discipline. But the 22-year-old was keen to keep expectations low across the formats, despite the lure of winning her maiden WTA singles title in front of a home crowd in west London. 'Of course you want to win this tournament, like every tournament, but especially when it's at home,' Raducanu continued. 'But my expectations are pretty low, because I played points for the first time today, and I've had maybe two or three days on the grass school, so it's not been much. 'But I just have to take it as it goes. I know that I'm doing what I can, and I've dealt with everything as best as I can.' As she starts her journey in west London, Raducanu will at least be able to call upon a familiar face, with her former coach Nick Cavaday seen practicing with the Briton on Sunday. Cavaday was forced to take a step back from working with the player after the Australian Open for health reasons, but Raducanu was delighted to share that she can start to call upon his support on home soil. 'I'm happy to see him healthy, first of all,' Raducanu said. 'It's been a long time since we were last on court together in Australia, and I think obviously, Mark (Petchey, her current coach) is in Paris commentating. Nick was around, and it was nice to just have a few days with him.' Raducanu also refused to be drawn on a discussion on equal pay in the men's and women's game, days after the Lawn Tennis Association (LTA) announced that they will be committing to equal prize money at Queen's and at Eastbourne by 2029, as well as awarding a record-high prize pot this year for both events. 'I think in a lot of the WTA events, the prize money is definitely different to the women's. At the Slams and the Masters, it's the same, but you know, the week-to-week events, it is lower,' Raducanu said. 'It is there is obviously a big difference, and I'm sure a lot of players will, say their piece on it, but I just prefer not to kind of get involved and just whatever the situation is. I'll kind of roll with it, but I'm never really gonna take a stand, either way. 'I don't feel like I really am playing for money,' Raducanu said. 'Of course, I need to sustain my team, which is extremely expensive. 'And with my kind of profile, coaches and team members know that, and so it is a very expensive sport, but it's not my main motivation when I play.'

Kylian Mbappe scores landmark goal as France finish third in Nations League
Goals from captain Kylian Mbappe and Michael Olise earned France a 2-0 victory over Germany in Stuttgart, a success that means they finish third in this season's Nations League. Hosts of the Nations League finals, Germany were looking to bounce back from defeat in the last four against Portugal but fell behind on the stroke of halftime after Mbappe controlled and finished well to score his 50th international goal. Germany thought they had levelled through Deniz Undav early in the second half, but the VfB Stuttgart forward's finish was ruled out following a VAR review. France did, however, remain in control and should have made the result more comfortable before Mbappe squared for Olise late on to secure third spot, with Iberian neighbours Portugal and Spain facing off in the final later on Sunday. Cristiano Ronaldo's winner ensured Germany tasted defeat for the first time since last year's European Championship on Wednesday. They did start well against a France team who were beaten in a thrilling semi-final by Spain, with Florian Wirtz seeing one first-half slotted effort clip the post. Mbappe, however, made no mistake after collecting Aurelien Tchouameni's long pass. The 26-year-old now sits just one goal behind second-placed Thierry Henry in France's all-time top goalscoring charts. Undav's fine finish seemingly restored parity early in the second half, but Niclas Fuellkrug was penalised for a foul in the build-up. Had it not been for Manuel Neuer and the woodwork, France would have been out of sight long before Bayern Munich's Olise tapped home to secure victory that ends their season on a high.

Gianluigi Donnarumma plans talks with PSG bosses 'amid interest from both Man City and Man United'
Gianluigi Donnarumma is planning to sit down with Paris Saint-Germain bosses to discuss his future amid growing uncertainty over his contract situation in the French capital. His current deal runs until June 2026 and PSG are keen to extend it. But there is also no shortage of interest in the 26-year-old from elsewhere. Manchester City 's interest in the Italy No 1 is well known, and the goalkeeper's superb performances in recent months have only strengthened their admiration. Donnarumma helped PSG win a historic treble in 2024–25, which was completed last weekend when they thrashed Inter Milan 5–0 in the Champions League final. He had played a leading role in getting PSG to the final, saving two penalties in a shootout win over Liverpool in the last 16 before making 14 more stops to help eliminate Aston Villa and Arsenal. According to L'Equipe, Manchester United have now joined City in eyeing a deal for Donnarumma, who is said to have discussed the prospect of a move to England with his Italy team-mates in recent days. Speaking while on international duty, Donnarumma told reporters: 'I don't know yet what is going to happen. 'I feel good in Paris. I haven't decided anything. For now, I want to focus on the matches with the national team, and nothing else. 'The situation at the club, I will discuss in the coming days with the management and my staff. For now, it is still too early.' Talks over a new contract began several months ago but have stalled, with PSG's offer reportedly including a reduced base salary and performance-related bonuses — a structure favoured by sporting director Luis Campos in recent negotiations. While Donnarumma has said publicly that he is happy in Paris, L'Equipe report that he has, in private, sometimes lamented a lack of support and recognition from the club — especially during periods of heavy external criticism.
