Liverpool set to cut losses with Nunez move to Saudi: reports
Liverpool striker Darwin Nunez is reportedly closing in on a move to Saudi club Al Hilal, which could allow the Premier League champions to make a fresh bid for Newcastle's Alexander Isak. Nunez joined the Reds for an initial 75 million euros ($87 million, £65 million) from Benfica three years ago but has failed to live up to that price tag. The Uruguayan has scored 40 goals in 143 appearances but slipped down the pecking order at Anfield under both Jurgen Klopp and Arne Slot. Accord - ing to transfer specialist Fabrizio Romano, Al Hilal will pay an initial 53 million euros for the 26-year-old. Nunez was likely to play even less this season after Liverpool signed Hugo Ekitike and Florian Wirtz as part of a 300 million euro spending spree that also includes fullbacks Milos Kerkez and Jeremie Frimpong. However, the club could still break the British transfer record by signing Isak, with Newcastle reportedly demanding a fee of up to £150 million for the Swedish striker. The sale of Nunez would take Liverpool's income for transfer sales this window t o n e a r l y 200 million euros after the departures of Luis Diaz, Jarell Quansah, Caoimhin Kelleher, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Tyler Morton.

Fast break to Cairo: Bahrain's U‑19s ready for Handball worlds
Bahrain's next generation of handball talent will open their U‑19 World Championship campaign in Cai‑ ro tomorrow, August 6, against Japan at 5:15 PM Bahrain time. It's a tough welcome to Group G, often dubbed the 'Group of Death,' with hosts Egypt on Thursday at 7:30 PM and South Korea on Friday at 5:15 PM. Only the top two sides will move on to the main round. The rest drop into the President's Cup. Friendly Fire Preparation has been thor‑ ough. Bahrain capped off weeks of intense domestic drills with a closed door friendly against Sau‑ di Arabia, where they focused on defensive compactness and disciplined transition play un‑ der match pressure. The Saudi camp allowed coaches to fine tune tempo and execution ahead of Egypt. Chasing a Return Bahrain's route to Cairo was paved by a fifth‑place finish at last year's Asian Youth Champi‑ onship in Amman, where they faced familiar foes like Japan and Korea. Their 2007 debut remains their best U 19 World result, reaching the eight‑team main round. In their four ap‑ pearances since, they have never made it out of the group stage. Setbacks and Support Goalkeeper Mohamed Sham‑ louh has been ruled out of the tournament with a shoulder injury, a blow to Bahrain's last line defense. Still, with strong backing from the Bahrain Hand‑ ball Federation and Olympic Committee, including overseas training access, this squad en‑ ters Egypt better prepared than ever.

Bahrain Shake Off Saudi Scare to March Into Final
TDT | Manama The stage is set for a fitting finale to the WAVA Men's Volleyball Championship 2025, with hosts Bahrain facing an unbeaten Qatar side in tonight's gold medal match. Both arrived in peak form, but their semi-final wins followed sharply different arcs. Bahrain Finally Blink Bahrain's 3–1 win over Saudi Arabia (26–28, 25–16, 25–22, 25–22) was the first time the hosts had dropped a set in the tournament. They led 23–20 in the opener, only to collapse under a string of errors and a great service run from Marwan Al Hawasawi, who ended as top scorer with 23 points. That early stumble jolted the Bahrainis into action. In the second set, their reliable trio—Naser Anan, Ali Ebrahim, and Mohammed Yaqoob—found rhythm. Anan later admitted they were briefly caught out. 'They came out aggressive and pushed us off balance,' he said. 'We weren't sharp enough on serve or block, and that's on us. But we stayed together, stuck to our system, and earned the win.' Yaqoob echoed him: 'We'd played two friendlies against Saudi and knew they had quality, but we weren't expecting the intensity they brought tonight. It caught us off guard. Now we prepare for Qatar and it's never an easy match against them.' With Hassan Al Warqaa dominant in the middle and Bahrain's wings clicking, the second set swung their way 25–16. Saudi pressed through Mohammed Adel and Al Hawasawi, but coach Arnaud Josserand's late third-set sub Mohammed Anan shifted the tone. Bahrain sealed the next two sets 25–22. Statistically, Bahrain edged it: 101 total points to Saudi's 88, 12 blocks to five, and fewer errors (28 to 34). Both sides served two aces, but Saudi's 18 service errors were costly compared to Bahrain's 12. Qatar Stay Clinical, Wadidie Leads Earlier, Qatar swept aside Oman 3–0 (25–18, 25–19, 25– 20). Raimi Wadidie starred with 17 points, including three blocks and two aces. 'We knew Oman would be aggressive, it's a semi-final,' said Waleed Mohamed Widatalla. 'But we stayed focused and followed the plan.' Qatar reached the final with straight-sets wins over Lebanon (twice) and Kuwait. Bahrain had done the same to Jordan, Lebanon, UAE and Kuwait before this semi. With 2024 Arab Championship and 2025 AVC Nations Cup titles already secured, Bahrain are one match away from a third crown in less than a year. But tonight's 7pm final at Isa bin Rashed Volleyball Hall will test them, because Qatar haven't blinked either. Entry is free for all.
