🎥 Brentford balance work and leisure at pre-season camp in Portugal
Of course, the Bees were put through their paces with fitness drills and rondos in the Northern Portuguese heat as they get set and ready for the 2025/26 campaign under new boss Keith Andrews.
However, team bonding also appeared to be high on the priority list, as the players participated in a host of extracurricular activities, including an intense volleyball tournament.
Will the blend of work and leisure pay off for the West Londoners when the Premier League begins at Nottingham Forest on August 17?

Report – Inter Milan To Meet Atalanta Demands For Nigeria Star Forward: €50M Offer Ready
Inter Milan will soon lodge a third and probably final offer for Atalanta forward Ademola Lookman amid protracted talks. According to Gazzetta dello Sport via FCInterNews, the Serie A runners-up are ready to match La Dea's request. What initially appeared to be a routine deal has turned into a soap opera. Indeed, Inter have yet to sign Ademola Lookman despite reaching a verbal agreement with the player. Furthermore, they've already had two offers rejected by the Bergamo club. Inter Milan Ready to Meet Atalanta Asking Price for Ademola Lookman BERGAMO, ITALY – JANUARY 18: Ademola Lookman of Atalanta BC looks on during the Serie A match between Atalanta BC and SSC Napoli at Gewiss Stadium on January 18, 2025 in Bergamo, Italy. (Photo by) Atalanta turned down Inter's €45 million bid for the 27-year-old. Instead, they're continuing to ask for €50 million, making Inter's life miserable. However, Cristian Chivu could soon welcome his fifth summer signing. Indeed, the San Siro giants are reportedly willing to match Atalanta's asking price to finally bring an end to this saga. Inter's third proposal will likely include several bonuses in order to meet the desired price. Meanwhile, Lookman is waiting for the clubs to strike an agreement after expressing his desire to join Inter.

Sweden - Mamadouba Diaby apologizes after lightning-fast sending off
Interview Sweden - Mamadouba Diaby apologizes after lightning-fast sending off It's a night Mamadouba Diaby won't forget anytime soon. Starting for Degerfors IF against IFK Göteborg on Monday evening, the Guinean full-back was sent off after just five minutes of play. Booked for the first time in the opening minute for a foul on Alioum during a counter-attack, Diaby picked up a second yellow card just four minutes later after a poorly timed tackle. The result: Degerfors played with ten men for 85 minutes... and suffered a heavy defeat (3-0). After the match, the player shared his regrets with Sportbladet's microphone, although he felt the second booking was harsh: It's my fault. I apologized to the team and the fans. It hurts. Usually, you get a verbal warning. This time, it was a straight yellow. I don't agree, but that's football. I'm disappointed for my teammates who battled on. And for our fans who traveled to support us. Now, we have to move on.
