Napoli fan gets beautiful McTominay tattoo of Scudetto winning goal
It was still 0-0 against Cagliari at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona, so with Inter leading in Como on Friday evening, the Partenopei had dropped to second place.

That was until the midfielder held off a shirt tug to acrobatically volley in the opening goal, leading to Scudetto celebrations.

A Napoli supporter has now got that image of the Scotland international's leap to carry with him forever in an ornate tattoo.
Scott McTominay Napoli goal tattoo
He has become the symbol of this Serie A success story, so people are expecting a whole generation of kids in Naples will be called Scott in his honour, much like the number of young men named Diego born in the late 1980s and early 1990s.

Donnarumma ‘disappointed and disheartened' at PSG Super Cup squad omission
Gianluigi Donnarumma has been left 'disappointed and disheartened' at Luis Enrique's decision to push the Paris St Germain goalkeeper towards the exit door. Italy international Donnarumma was an eye-catching omission from PSG's Super Cup squad for Wednesday's fixture with Tottenham in his home country. Big-money summer arrival Lucas Chevalier has been included and is set to make his PSG debut at Stadio Friuli after Luis Enrique confirmed he wanted a goalkeeper profile that was 'different' to Donnarumma. Italy captain Donnarumma has since taken to Instagram to criticise the decision and expressed his desire to say goodbye 'in the eyes one more time' to the PSG supporters at Parc des Princes. 'To the special Paris fans, from the first day I arrived, I gave everything – on and off the pitch – to earn my place and defend the goal of Paris Saint-Germain,' Donnarumma said. 'Unfortunately, someone has decided that I can no longer be part of the group and contribute to the team's success, I am disappointed and disheartened. 'I hope to have the opportunity to look the fans at the Parc des Princes in the eyes one more time and say goodbye as it should be done. 'If that doesn't happen, I want you to know that your support and affection mean the world to me and I will never forget it. I will always carry with me the memory of all the emotions, the magical nights and of you, who made me feel at home. 'To my team-mates – my second family – thank you for every battle, every laugh, every moment we shared. You will always be my brothers. 'Playing for this club and living in this city has been an immense honour. Thank you, Paris.' Luis Enrique explained his decision in Udine, he said: 'These are always difficult decisions to make. 'I can definitely talk about Gigio, because he's one of the best players in his position, without a doubt. He's even better as a person. 'We're looking for a goalkeeping profile that is different to Donnarumma. It's always difficult to make the decision in these kinds of situations.' Luis Enrique also revealed Tottenham were once an option for him and admitted they have a physical advantage on Wednesday. The 55-year-old was linked with the vacancy at Spurs after Antonio Conte left in 2023, but Ange Postecoglou was eventually hired and Luis Enrique subsequently took over PSG in a sliding doors moment for both men. Postecoglou was able to mastermind Europa League success in May and end Tottenham's 17-year trophy drought, whilst Luis Enrique guided PSG to the holy grail of a maiden Champions League title. The pair will not face each other in Italy after Spurs ruthlessly discarded with Postecoglou following a poor domestic campaign and the appointment of Thomas Frank – alongside the fact they have been in pre-season training since early July, while PSG only returned last Wednesday after their Club World Cup exploits – gives the English outfit a slight edge according to Luis Enrique. 'Well, I have to say that it is difficult because they change recently the manager, new manager, some new players, they play a few friendly matches before tomorrow's match and I don't know what kind of game they are going to plan,' Luis Enrique acknowledged. 'It is going to be difficult because they have been training for the last month and we are in our first week, but it is not an excuse. 'We are going to try to compete at our best.' On Spurs' links, Luis Enrique added: 'Well, there were some options for me in the last six months before I came to Paris and Tottenham was one of them.'

Official: Udinese sign Lennon Miller from Motherwell
Udinese have completed the signing of Scottish midfielder Lennon Miller from Motherwell, the club confirmed this evening. Miller joins the Serie A side for a reported fee of around €5.5 million after the 18-year-old completed his medical on Monday. Speaking on X, the club's official account welcomed the 'modern midfielder, capable of combining technique, vision and character', describing him as 'one of the brightest young talents in European football.' Lennon Miller si veste di bianconero ⚪️⚫️ Uno dei giovani più brillanti del calcio europeo approda all'Udinese. Centrocampista moderno, capace di unire tecnica, visione di gioco e carattere, arriva dal Motherwell FC con un contratto quinquennale. Benvenuto, Lennon! 🙌 — Udinese Calcio (@Udinese_1896) August 12, 2025 Lennon Miller finally joins Udinese In January, Udinese had a bid rejected alongside Belgian club Union Saint-Gilloise by Motherwell for the youngster but now the Serie A outfit have finally been able to wrap up the deal. GLASGOW, SCOTLAND – MARCH 01: Lennon Miller of Motherwell is seen during the William Hill Premiership match between Rangers FC and Motherwell FC at Ibrox Stadium on March 01, 2025 in Glasgow, Scotland. (Photo by) Last season, Miller was ever-present for Motherwell, playing 41 games in all competitions. The 18-year-old also earned his first two caps for the Scottish national team after the bright prospect lit up the Scottish Premiership. Miller came up through the Motherwell system, where he had played since the age of eight. His rapid rise to prominence can be seen through his escalation throughout the Scottish youth set-up, only making his first appearances for the U19 squad in 2023, with just two years between that and his first game for the first team.

New America's Cup protocol sees female sailors, battery power in 'seismic change' for the Auld Mug
WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) — New rules for the America's Cup sailing regatta announced Tuesday have been described as a seismic moment for the historic event and the 'boldest change in 174 years of the Cup.' Crews competing in the 38th Cup regatta in Naples, Italy in July of 2027 will comprise five members, including at least one woman. Under new criteria, at least two members of each crew, including a female, must be nationals of each team's country of origin. Each 76-foot America's Cup boat will also carry a sixth 'guest' crew member who could be a celebrity, influencer, media representative or sponsor. The America's Cup will now be contested every two years and the protocol or governing document for the event now establishes a system of governance under which all competing teams will have equal responsibility for organizing the event on and off the water and for the control of media and commercial rights. Most functions of the boats will now be powered by batteries, rather than the brute strength of their crews. The moves to modernize the Cup have mostly been well received by competitors and key shareholders. 'As the founding Trustee of the America's Cup, we are completely supportive of the move to modernize the oldest sporting trophy in the world,' said Jay Cross, commodore of the New York Yacht Club. The NYYC was the first to win the America's Cup when its schooner America — from which the trophy takes its name — beat 15 yachts representing Britain's Royal Yacht Squadron in a race around the Isle of Wight in 1851. The United States held the trophy until 1983, when the challenger Australia II ended the streak. Team New Zealand has dominated the recent regattas. 'As the three-time successive winner and defender of the America's Cup and along with the Royal New Zealand Yacht Squadron as current Trustee, we feel the responsibility to continue to drive the growth of the America's Cup event,' Team New Zealand chief executive Grant Dalton said. 'Although the America's Cup is the oldest trophy in international sport and the pinnacle of sailing, its Achilles heel has always been its lack of continuity,' he said. 'So this transformation now gives all teams collective stewardship and we are introducing a new executive management team to be headed up by a new independent CEO.' In a move to contain costs, a cap of 75 million Euros ($87 million) has been imposed on each team competing in 2027. Teams returning from the last America's Cup will be required to retain the same hulls while new teams will have to either acquire an AC75 hull or build to the same specifications. 'This is a seismic moment for the America's Cup,' Athena Racing team principal Ben Ainslie said. Athena Racing is the Challenger of Record which develops the protocol in partnership with the defender. 'The partnership agreement fundamentally reshapes the governance and organization of the event,' Ainslie said. 'The teams and yacht clubs share a vision to make the America's Cup more inclusive, compelling and financially sustainable. 'This new model marks a unified commitment to that vision. I am excited for the future of the sport.' Tuesday's announcement follows a fractious development process for the protocol during which Athena Racing and the American and Swiss challengers criticized Team New Zealand's management of the event. ___ AP sports:
