Bournemouth appealed the decision and have been successful, with Evanlison's three-match ban overturned by the FA.

Man Utd transfer news: Ruben Amorim sends Rasmus Hojlund warning after Arsenal snub
Rasmus Hojlund was left out of Manchester United's squad to face Arsenal, increasingly speculation over his future following the recent arrival of Benjamin Sesko for £74million New season, same problems. Manchester United kicked off their 2025-26 Premier League campaign with a 1-0 defeat to Arsenal. By failing to score and conceding from a set piece, it felt like deja vu for Red Devils supporters. But as Ruben Amorim put it, they weren't 'boring' like last season. The United boss was encouraged with his side's performance, as the Old Trafford crowd applauded them off at full-time. Fans were off their feet watching new signings Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo while Benjamin Sesko made his debut in the second half. Sesko's inclusion in the squad came at the expense of Rasmus Hojlund, who's the subject of interest from clubs across Europe, including AC Milan. Sales are United's priority for the remainder of the summer transfer window which closes on September 1. Here's a round-up of the latest transfer news from Old Trafford. Amorim sends Hojlund clear message Ruben Amorim has warned Rasmus Hojlund that he'll remain on the sidelines if he doesn't 'do what's required'. Hojlund, 22, watched from the stands against Arsenal, with Benjamin Sesko quickly usurping him in the pecking order. "At United, if you don't do what's required, a team-mate will take your place," Amorim said. "I've made a lot of mistakes, but I've shown that if you deserve it, you play." The Red Devils manager added: "He has to fight for his place. We will see what's going to happen in the market. Rasmus has the same characteristics as Ben, so sometimes we need to chose." Roma make contact over Malacia Roma are in talks to sign Tyrell Malacia, who's keen to leave Manchester United before transfer deadline day. The Dutch left-back was part of a five-man bomb squad who didn't travel on the Red Devils' pre-season tour of the USA. According to reports from Italy, Roma asked United about the conditions for signing Malacia during the clubs' talks over Jadon Sancho. Bestikas are also interested in the 26-year-old. Baleba breaks silence after Brighton opener Carlos Baleba has broken his silence amid links of a move to Manchester United. Baleba, 21, started Brighton 's 1-1 draw with Fulham on Saturday, just over a week after the Red Devils made contact with Brighton to register their interest in the Cameroonian midfielder, who's been given a new shirt number this season. "Just me doing the thing I love most. Had fun playing at home with the boys," Baleba said on Instagram post-match. "Nothing new here, just my number and a haircut."

Single photo proves there is hope after unimaginable tragedy struck the Abdallah family: 'They are my greatest blessing'
The parents of three children who were killed in the Oatlands crash have shared a powerful family portrait. Danny Abdallah and his wife Leila shared a photograph to Facebook on Sunday showing the parents standing alongside their five children. The family were all dressed in white and posed behind a photograph of Sienna, 8, Angelina, 12, and Antony, 13. The trio, along with their cousin Veronique Sakr, 11, were killed instantly in the horrific crash that unfolded in Oatlands, western Sydney, on February 1, 2020. Eleven-year-old Charbel Kassas, who was another child in the group of seven kids struck down by the car, was badly injured and spent two months in a coma, while the driver Samuel William Davidson was jailed. The Abdallahs have had two baby girls since the tragedy and shared a powerful message along with the latest family portrait. 'My family is my greatest blessing, filling my life with love, strength, and joy. Antony, Angelina and Sienna are present with us in everything we do,' the caption read. It comes after Danny was seen embracing Davidson as the pair met inside Cessnock Correctional Centre in a Spotlight segment aired on Channel Seven on Sunday night. Davidson had been drunk, high on drugs and speeding when he ploughed into the group of seven children, who were out getting ice cream. Danny and his wife Leila previously explained how they forgave Davidson so as not to 'hold onto hate' for the sake of their remaining children, but just how deep that goes was revealed in the extraordinary meeting. Davidson, 34, had been sentenced to 20 years in prison with a non-parole period of 15 years, but Danny revealed that, if it were up to him, he would see him released tomorrow. 'Whether it's 100 years or one day, it's not going to make me feel any different,' Danny told Seven News Spotlight. He explained his focus was on his children and that whether Davidson was in jail or not made no difference, but he understood that 'justice was more for the community, to see that this type of behaviour is punished'. The two also prayed together during the visit. Davidson previously revealed how he converted to become a Maronite Catholic, the same religion Danny and his family follow, largely due to how they had forgiven him. Davidson also apologised to Danny, his family, emergency service workers who attended the scene, neighbours who witnessed the crash and the wider community, before he shared a warning to not get behind the wheel while intoxicated. In the interview, Davidson also opened up about his hard-drinking lifestyle before the incident, pledging those days were behind him. 'It's a shame that I had to enjoy life under the influence of alcohol or anything like that to enjoy it, because I can tell you my thoughts about that are completely different now,' he told the program. Davidson, who spends up to 17 hours a day inside his cell, said it was important to him to keep a clean cell, the way he would at home. 'I do try and keep it that way because I just think it looks better and yeah, it just makes it more homely. Yeah, I was like that on the outside too,' he said. With a decade still to serve, Davidson said he longed to be able to open and close a door for himself when he is finally freed from custody. 'I've had a dream where I was waiting for a door to open at home. At home you just open a door, you know?' he said. 'Here you've got to wait for a door … freely opening it – I can't wait,' he said. Danny has attributed his decision to forgive Davidson to his Christian faith, but he added it was also necessary for the sake of his marriage and surviving children. 'At the end of the day, I've still got three other kids. I need to be a father too and I need to be a husband to my wife, and it's already hard enough,' he said. Initially, he began speaking with Davidson because he 'needed closure'. But he said he also liked 'confrontation' and needed Davidson to know who he was and the hurt he had caused the family and why they had chosen to forgive him. The Abdallah and Sakr families in 2024 unveiled a permanent memorial to their children at the crash site outside Oatlands Golf Club. Danny and Leila also founded i4give Day, which occurs on February 1 each year, and marks the date of the crash.

Jack Grealish has bit to prove — I know how he feels, says David Moyes
Jack Grealish has a point to prove. That much is clear. To Pep Guardiola, after he unceremoniously discarded him from his plans at Manchester City, and to Thomas Tuchel as he looks to force his way into the England coach's plans before the 2026 World Cup. Then there is the faith of Everton, the manager, David Moyes, and their supporters to repay after the club committed £12million to meet the cost of a season-long loan deal that begins in earnest away to Leeds United on Monday night. But, most of all, Grealish has something to prove to himself. Chiefly that his best is not behind him and that the swagger that made him a £100million player four years ago can be realised again. If he can do so, then Moyes, who overcame his own army of doubters to reassert his managerial credentials after his brief tenure at Manchester United, is sure he will be a success. Asked what tipped the balance in his pursuit of Grealish, who will be 30 next month, he said: 'The knowledge that he thinks he's got a little bit to prove. 'Without putting all the pressure on Jack, and I think he carries a lot of pressure anyway because of who he is and what he is, I think he's got a wee bit where he has to prove one or two people [wrong]. I'm looking forward to seeing how he does. 'I've had to do that myself personally. I've had to come back from being knocked down. Sometimes you have to have that resilience to bounce back, to fight back and to show everybody. 'I just sense that Jack is carrying that with him now. I hope it shows through this season because, if it does, then we'll get a lot of good things from Jack.' Grealish has quickly made a positive impression at Everton. Moyes said he looks in 'fabulous' condition and his new team-mate Charly Alcaraz was struck by a different side to the player he has faced in the past. The Argentinian — another of the club's summer signings after a promising loan spell from Flamengo was turned into a permanent deal — said: 'He is a great guy. In the short time he has been here, he has chatted to everyone and tried to get to know everyone. 'What I have been really impressed about is that he has been a real warrior in training. We want that attitude. We are at a club where we are all in it together.' Only the three relegated clubs scored fewer goals than Everton (42) last season and Moyes wants to see Grealish 'in positions where he can score'. Whether that means starting on the left wing and drifting inside, or beginning in a No10 role, remains to be seen. In the past Jesse Lingard benefited from a spell under Moyes's tutelage. He scored nine goals and managed five assists in the second half of the 2020-21 campaign, having been overlooked by Manchester United and is an obvious reference point. 'I think we are all saying there is a Jack Grealish who played for Aston Villa, there's one who played for Manchester City, one we've seen playing for England,' Moyes said. 'And along the line, he has been playing for arguably the best manager in the world [Guardiola]. 'So I take his thoughts [Grealish's] but I have to find ways of getting the best out of players as well.' Moyes said he did not speak to Guardiola before Everton proceeded with the deal but, otherwise, his research was typically detailed. The most important chats were with Grealish and the enthusiasm he showed for the task ahead was refreshing given this has been a summer when plenty of other targets have rejected Everton's overtures. The superb Hill Dickinson Stadium on the banks of the River Mersey, which will host its first competitive game when Brighton & Hove Albion visit next Sunday, has the potential to be transformative. But a team to be proud of must rise from within it. 'The club has done brilliantly to build a new stadium,' Moyes said. 'It has taken years to happen but they've got there eventually and done it. 'I think now there has to be a building of a football club back inside it, to get it back to where it was and, more importantly, to get the team back to where it was. Or closer to where it should be. We are a long way off at the moment. 'I don't think we can do that in this window and make the team what we want it to be, but we are going to need people along the journey to make it more exciting and make people want to come and play. 'Whether that is through high-profile players or our league position or how we are playing and our performances, we are needing some of them to give us a lift now. 'There's been quite a few players who I've been disappointed have not chosen to come to Everton this summer and I think that's because, if you look at the last four or five years, we've not been in great shape. 'Hopefully, they are beginning to see a new stadium, great results in the second half of last season, and they start to believe Everton is a good home for them.' Grealish — who has started one Premier League match in 2025 — is on board. If he proves himself again, others are likely to follow. Monday, kick-off 8pmTV Sky Sports Premier League/Main Event
