England set for Sri Lanka tour ahead of T20 World Cup
England have confirmed a white-ball tour of Sri Lanka in the lead up to the 2026 ICC Men's T20 World Cup. The tour begins with three ODIs starting January 22, followed by a three-match T20I series from January 30. Serving as vital preparation for the 2026 T20 World Cup, to be hosted by India and Sri Lanka, the series will give England valuable experience in subcontinental conditions ahead of their tussle for a third T20 World Cup crown, having won in 2009 and 2022. This marks England's first white-ball tour of Sri Lanka in over seven years, with their last visit coming in 2018 when they won the ODI series 3-1 and also claimed victory in the lone T20I. The last time both the sides faced each other in a T20I was during England's victorious 2022 T20 World Cup campaign, where they beat Sri Lanka by 4 wickets in their group stage clash. Sri Lanka's next T20I series comes in the form of a three-match series against Zimbabwe away from home, while England go up against South Africa at home, starting September 10 in Cardiff. Schedule : 1st ODI - 22 January, 2026 2nd ODI - 24 January, 2026 3rd ODI - 27 January, 2026 1st T20I - 30 January, 2026 2nd T20I - 1 February, 2026 3rd T20I - 3 February, 2026

Salah makes history with third PFA player of the year award
The Egyptian scored 29 goals and provided 18 assists to propel the Reds to a record-equalling 20th English top-flight title with four games to spare last season. Salah also scooped the award in the 2017/18 and 2021/22 seasons. The 33-year-old picked up the Football Writers' Association and Premier League player of the year awards in recent months. Aston Villa's Morgan Rogers won young player the year following a breakthrough campaign that saw the attacking midfielder make his senior international debut for England. Salah is joined in the 2024/25 PFA Premier League team of the year by Liverpool team-mates Virgil van Dijk, Ryan Gravenberch and Alexis Mac Allister. Milos Kerkez, who moved to Anfield from Bournemouth in June, is also selected, as are the Arsenal trio of William Saliba, Gabriel Magalhaes and Declan Rice. Matz Sels and Chris Wood are recognised for their fine campaigns at Nottingham Forest, while wantaway Newcastle striker Alexander Isak is included after finishing second to Salah in the Golden Boot race. Arsenal's Mariona Caldentey won the women's player of the year accolade after her role in helping the Gunners win the Champions League. The Spanish midfielder scored 19 goals in all competitions, including eight in the Champions League, in her first season in England. Olivia Smith recently joined Caldentey at Arsenal in a world-record £1 million ($1.4 million) deal and won the women's young player of the year prize following her superb season at Liverpool.

Mohamed Salah Leads PFA Race as Isak Skips Awards Amid Transfer Turmoil
Liverpool's Mohamed Salah continues to dominate headlines as a frontrunner for the 2025 Professional Footballers' Association (PFA) Player of the Year award. The Egyptian icon, fresh off a stellar season tallying 29 goals and 18 assists, stands alongside teammates Alexis Mac Allister and is joined by nominees including Alexander Isak (Newcastle), Bruno Fernandes, Declan Rice, and Cole Palmer. However, attention has turned to Alexander Isak, who has chosen not to attend the PFA Awards ceremony amid intense speculation surrounding his potential move to Liverpool. The Newcastle United striker, who made the PFA Team of the Year, remains absent and has not publicly confirmed his attendance despite being expected to present alongside five Liverpool players. This unfolding drama comes as Isak continues to distance himself from Newcastle's pre-season setup, opting instead to train alone and pushing for the transfer to be finalized. The move, if realized, would have significant implications for both clubs, potentially reinforcing Liverpool's attacking depth while marking a major reshuffle for Newcastle. At the awards event itself, Mohamed Salah was spotted embracing Arsenal star Alessia Russo on the red carpet, a symbolic moment bridging men's and women's football, as both were top nominees in their respective categories.
