Liverpool deal gets go-ahead after star says YES
Andy Robertson gives Atletico Madrid go-ahead
Sport reports that Andy Robertson has told Atletico Madrid to push ahead with a transfer. He's willing to move there and has verbally agreed to do so.
This is one that came as a shock to many this week. Robertson was not expected to depart this summer, with absolutely no suggestion of an exit as Liverpool wrapped the season up.

The Scot only has one year left on his contract, however, and the impending arrival of Milos Kerkez will push him down the pecking order. No one could really begrudge him a move to a major European club who are eager to have him.

Sunderland close to appointing Roma's Florent Ghisolfi as director of football
Sunderland are close to appointing Florent Ghisolfi as the club's director of football. Sporting director Kristjaan Speakman will remain at newly-promoted Sunderland and will work alongside Ghisolfi, who was Roma's sporting director for 2024-25. Ghisolfi had interest from other clubs including Newcastle United, who are assessing candidates to succeed outgoing sporting director Paul Mitchell, with interest also from Juventus, Fiorentina and Saudi Arabia. Advertisement A former midfielder, Ghisolfi led Roma to a top-five finish in Serie A for the first time in five seasons last term, missing out on Champions League qualification to Juventus by one point. The 40-year-old, who decided to leave Roma this summer, had his first sporting director role at Lens, who won promotion back to Ligue 1 during his time at the club before later qualifying for the Champions League. Ghisolfi worked at Nice with INEOS between 2022 and 2024, where head coach Francesco Farioli had wished to retain his services before Roma saw off interest from Monaco to secure his signature last summer. Sunderland are back in the Premier League for the first time since 2017, having defeated Sheffield United in last month's Championship play-off final. ()
