Silva comeback in Bremen?

In what can only be seen as a surprising move, Werder Bremen are reportedly working on the comeback of André Silva! 'The way the loan went, neither side certainly imagined it would turn out this way,' said Werder Bremen's head of licensing Peter Niemeyer to Kicker magazine in May, referring to André Silva. The RB Leipzig centre-forward spent the second half of last season with the Green-Whites, but only made eight appearances and scored one goal in 422 minutes of play. Nevertheless, both sides could try again: The news outlet 'Deichstube' say Bremen are interested in Silva, because he 'fits in well with the ideas' of new head coach Horst Steffen. There has been intensive communication between the parties with positive signals. The striker is said to be open to a return to Bremen and is also willing to take a pay cut. Nevertheless, a transfer is not yet certain, which is why SVW is considering other options for the striker position as well.

Liverpool ‘agree' Luis Diaz transfer with Bayern Munich

Liverpool have reportedly agreed a deal to sell Luis Diaz to Bayern Munich in the summer transfer window. The left winger has been eager to secure an exit out of Anfield ahead of next season, with the Bundesliga champions chasing his signature in recent weeks. Bayern had their opening offer in the region of £58.5m (€67m) turned down by the Reds, but returned with a second bid, said to be worth around £69m (€80m). Liverpool 'agree' Luis Diaz transfer with Bayern Munich Their persistence has seemingly paid off, with multiple reports claiming Liverpool have accepted the Bavarian outfit's latest approach. The Athletic and Sky Sports News both report that the total fee comes to £65.5m (€75m). Diaz has been given permission to leave Liverpool's pre-season training camp in Tokyo to complete the move and sign a four-year contract, with the option for a further year. Liverpool were unwilling to sell one of their key players, but the Colombia international forced their hand by insisting on a move away. He had two years left to run on his contract. Arne Slot confirmed that Diaz was left out of Saturday's pre-season friendly defeat to AC Milan due to the speculation surrounding his future. 'There's a lot of rumours around him lately and I cannot go into that,' the head coach told LFC TV. 'He's training well with us but we have decided, for now, not to play him yet. 'I'm used to talking to most of my players on a regular basis. Like I said, Lucho is training really well and we've decided that he's not playing at the moment in the games. I cannot comment much more about that.' Barcelona also made an approach for Diaz in June, but Liverpool turned them down. They instead signed Marcus Rashford on loan with an obligation to buy from Manchester United. Read – See Also – Follow The Football Faithful on Social Media: | | | |

Oscar Piastri's Early Pass on Lando Norris Leads to Belgian Grand Prix Victory

In the Belgian Grand Prix, after a 90-minute delay for low visibility, Oscar Piastri took the lead on the first lap of racing after four laps behind the safety car. Heading into turn five, Piastri took the lead from his teammate Lando Norris, who started on pole. This lap one move would be the race winner, as Piastri kept control of the race once by his teammate. This was Piastri's sixth win of the season, extending his points lead in the championship to 16 points over Lando Norris. Most teams set their cars up for a wet race, but with the long red flag, the majority of the race would be run in dry conditions, with drivers switching to intermediates starting as early as lap 12. Lewis Hamilton was among the first to pit after racing from the pit lane up to 13th position before coming in. By lap 16, Hamilton would be up to seventh after his poor qualifying this Spa weekend. Hamilton was then stuck behind the Williams of Alex Albon for the rest of the race, protecting sixth position. Piastri, as the lead McLaren in this race, was given the prime strategy and went to the pits for mediums on lap 13, drawing in the rest of the leaders, as his teammate stayed out for a lap waiting for the pits to be available for him. After everyone exited the pits and survived on the slick tires, McLaren's Will Joseph gave Norris the call to go with an alternative strategy and get hard tires on lap 14 in an attempt to make it to the end of the race. Electing for a one-stop strategy, knowing that he won't be able to race Piastri for track position. A few laps later the McLaren pit wall decided that mediums had a chance to make it as well, putting Piastri in the position to either pit a second time and have to battle back past his teammate and possibly Charles Leclerc and Max Verstappen, if his lead isn't build up enough or stay out and defend in the closing lap on further degraded tires than those of his teammate. Through the middle of the race, the two McLarens averaged an eight-second separation, fluctuating between seven and nine seconds based mostly on small mistakes by Norris, including a missed corner entry on lap 26 that cost him a second and a lock-up going into turn one on lap 36 that cost him up the hill. After a radio message from the pit wall reminding Norris to focus and not overbrake, Norris started to close the gap to Piastri as the mediums started to degrade. "Lando, these tires are getting tricky," the McLaren pit wall said. "You need to keep the focus. Don't push the braking as hard as you have been. You are naturally quicker." Norris cut the lead to under five seconds with five laps to go. Entering the penultimate lap, Norris was under four seconds behind Piastri and made another mistake to fall back to five seconds. Leclerc spent the whole race holding off the Red Bull of Verstappen, whom he outqualified, for a much-needed podium.
