Hilarious Moment Unfolds as Andrey Rublev Runs Out of the Court During His Loss At Rome Open
In the video below we can see Rublev asking the umpire that he needs to go to the bathroom, the umpire is unsure and says that there might be a small window because the courts are being watered, but he also informed him that he will not be able to give him any extra time. What transpired next was Rublev sprinting out of the court with the chair umpire saying 'Go Go Go!' in a hilarious moment.
Rublev looked frustrated during the entirety of the match, yelling at his box and throwing his racquet around on the dirt. Rublev, has not had a pleasant 2025 with a 11-10 win-loss record in the year. After hiring Russian icon Marat Safin to his coaching team, he would have expected his situation to have gotten better, but half-way into the season and Rublev looks nowhere near his best.
After winning the second set, Rublev yet again went a break down in the third. He tried to fight back in his final game, conjuring up multiple break points, but it was a little to late for him. He lost the match 5-7, 6-4, 3-6.
Rublev will look to get back to the drawing room and look to reset as he heads into French Open.

Official: Real Madrid star promoted to first-team
A member of the defensive ranks at La Liga giants Real Madrid has this week seen his efforts from last season officially recognised by the club. The player in question? Raúl Asencio. Stopper Asencio is for his part of course fresh off a breakout campaign in Spain's capital. Amid a personnel crisis at the heart of Real Madrid's backline, the 22-year-old was afforded a sudden opportunity at senior level. And this is a chance which Asencio went on to take full advantage of, courtesy of a number of fine performances. Nevertheless, as recently as this past weekend, the Spaniard remained registered with Real's Castilla outfit. But as alluded to above, on Monday, Asencio's emergence has been aptly recognised by those behind the scenes at the Santiago Bernabéu. As showcased below, the defender has been officially promoted to Xabi Alonso's squad, registered as a first-team player on Real Madrid's website. Conor Laird – GSFN

Tottenham Hotspur Are Genuine Contenders For This Bayern Munich Midfielder: Good Choice For Frank?
In a recent post on X, respected journalist Fabrizio Romano stated that Tottenham Hotspur are genuine contenders for Bayern Munich midfielder Joao Palhinha. It has been claimed that Spurs are eyeing a move to bring the Portuguese talent to North London this summer. Palhinha's Impressive Form In German Football The 30-year-old caught the eye at times for the Munich outfit in the previous campaign. However, he was sidelined for a lot of games for them due to injury. The Portuguese sensation took part in 25 matches for Bayern Munich last season in various competitions. Palhinha anchored the midfield with conviction as he made 20 tackles, 13 blocks and 4 interceptions in the Bundesliga. He was even accurate when distributing possession from midfield after making 92.4% of his attempted passes in the German first division (stats via Palhinha's current deal at Bayern Munich will expire in the summer of 2028. Thus, it would be difficult for Tottenham to land him on a cut-price deal this off-season. MUNICH, GERMANY – NOVEMBER 05: Joao Palhinha of FC Bayern München talks to the media during the UEFA Champions League 2024/25 League Phase MD4 press conference at FC Bayern München Training Ground Säbener Strasse on November 05, 2024 in Munich, Germany. (Photo by) Is Palhinha A Good Choice For Tottenham Hotspur Boss Thomas Frank? Palhinha is a good tackler of the ball and can make some important interceptions for his team at the centre of the park. He doesn't mind putting his foot through the ball when needed and is a tidy passer of the ball as well. Palhinha can even use his powerful 1.90m frame to dominate the oppostion in the air. However, the Portuguese sensation needs to add some goals and assists to his game. He is quite familiar with the Premier League from his time at Fulham and won't take much time to adjust to life at Tottenham. We can expect Palhinha to add more bite and steel to Thomas Frank's midfield department. He is good enough to compete for regular first-team football at the North London club next season. At 30, Palhinha has still got a few good seasons left in him to play at his best. Therefore, he would be a good choice for Spurs to consider in the short term. He has got the experience and skill set to be a real asset for Tottenham in the coming years. Hence, Frank should consider going all out to get Palhinha on board before the end of this summer transfer window.

Liverpool about to UNLOCK £130m Alexander Isak deal
Liverpool have got Alexander Isak in their sights. The Newcastle forward has made it clear he wishes to leave St. James' Park and has got NO intention of signing a new contract. Nonetheless, the striker is out of contract in 2028 and so the Magpies are entitled to set a high price for him. LFC x New Era Shop Now LFC Signed Merch Shop Now LFC x Titleist Shop Now A fee of between £120m and £130m has been mentioned for the 25-year-old - with Liverpool unfazed about breaking the British transfer record for a SECOND time in one summer. Current record holder Florian Wirtz only moved to the Reds a matter of weeks ago - for a fee that could end up reaching £116m. Liverpool assembling £130m Isak package If the opportunity arises to land Isak - who scored 23 goals in the Premier League last year - then expect sporting director Richard Hughes to pull the trigger. The club will however require sales in order to fund the next stage of their transfer plan. Wirtz and the rest of the arrivals have cost Liverpool in the region of £260m so far this summer. Money will need to be clawed back - although €75m will soon be deposited in the account from Bayern Munich for Luis Diaz. That takes Liverpool about halfway towards their Isak total - and Darwin Nunez could help pay for the rest. Darwin Nunez exit could UNLOCK Isak funds The Uruguay international, 26, cost Liverpool up to £85m when he moved from Benfica back in 2022 but it's no secret that he's available this summer. Hughes is in a good position to command a high fee given the duration of Nunez's contract - which extends to 2028. There have been several suitors in the mix for the No9 - including Atletico Madrid, Napoli and AC Milan but his future looks set to be played out in Saudi Arabia. but now a new side has emerged on the radar. © IMAGO - Darwin Nunez Liverpool Al-Ahli considering Nunez bid Having sold Liverpool icon Roberto Firimino to Al-Sadd in Qatar last week, Al-Ahli have got a vacancy up top and according to Paul Joyce in The Times they have got Nunez in mind. 'Darwin Núñez is another player who could move on, with clubs in the Saudi Pro League having long tracked the Uruguay forward,' the report reads. 'Al-Ahli are the latest team to consider bidding for Núñez.' Liverpool would like to bank around £70m for Nunez, who only scored five Premier League goals last season. If they can achieve that sum from Al-Ahli then it would mean the club are close to their funding target for making an Isak bid. It's sad that things haven't worked out for Nunez, who played no part in the weekend preseason defeat to AC Milan, but the time has come for the Reds to make a significant upgrade up top.
