Norwegian forward Ola Solbakken is very close to moving back to his homeland.
After joining Roma on a free transfer in January of 2023, Solbakken was unable to break through the ranks.
All of his loans in Japan, Greece and Italy proved unsuccessful and now the player is tipped to make his return to Norway.
As reported by Corriere dello Sport, Roma are finalizing Solbakken's move to Rosenborg – the club where he grew up before moving to Bodo.

The previous meeting took place on October 12, 2023, with a 2-0 victory against Scotland in the qualifying phase for Euro 2024.

Juventus only interested in Jadon Sancho if they fail with first-choice target Francisco Conceição

Ruben Amorim's revolution at Manchester United this summer is going to rely largely on outgoings with the Portuguese head coach desperate to change the culture in and around Old Trafford. Additionally, any sales will help fund the transfer kitty which is under the watchful eye of the Premier League Profit and Sustainability guidelines. Advertisement United have made it clear which players are up for sale in the market but finding suitors for the heavily paid and underperforming crop is proving difficult. Jadon Sancho is one of those United are keen to offload in the coming months after a disastrous spell in Manchester. However, the Englishman's salary demands are such that United will need to strike a cut price deal to get him out of the doors. Interest has been registered by clubs on the continent with Turkish club Fenerbahçe now the front runners to end Sancho's United nightmare. As reported by Italian media, Juventus are also one of those clubs monitoring Sancho's situation but he is not seen as a priority target by the Serie A giants. Advertisement Porto winger Francisco Conceição the number one choice to bolster Igor Tudor's attacking options going into the new campaign. Juve are hoping to get a reduced price on Conceição's €30 million release clause with a view to getting a deal over the line after the Club World Cup. However, Porto are expected to stand firm in their stance of demanding the full amount which will leave the Italians with a decision to make. Sancho is reported as an option for the Old Lady but only if they fail in their attempts to sign Conceição. This should serve as another blow to the inflated ego of Sancho after Chelsea stumped up £5 million to send him back to United despite having a obligation to purchase the winger permanently. However, it seems Sancho is willing to dig his heels in with regards to his salary and won't budge far enough away from the eye watering wage he is earning at United. Advertisement Amorim has instructed INEOS to move the 24-year-old on and the hierarchy at United are also keen to secure a permanent deal for a player who is taking up a sizable chunk of the wage bill. Should the likely parting of ways materialize, Sancho will surely go down as one of the worst signings in United's history and rather sums up the woeful performance in the transfer market by the club over the last decade.

Lioness Jess Carter proud to help make women's sport more visible

In another life, Jess Carter could have spent this summer representing England on the rugby field instead of the football pitch. The England defender picked the round ball over the oval ball age 16 and has gone on to represent the Lionesses at two major tournaments. Advertisement But if women's rugby had enjoyed the stature it does today, she could have lined up for the Red Roses as they go for glory themselves on home soil this summer. 'I loved rugby, I still to this day say I was better at it than football,' said the 27-year-old, as part of a new LG OLED TV collaboration ahead of this summer. Former England goalkeeper and media pundit, Rachel Brown-Finnis, sat down with two of England's most loved sporting teams, the Lionesses and Red Roses to discuss the upcoming summer of sport (imagecomms) 'But it just got to a point where I had to choose between one or the other, and at that time, when I was playing, I think football was developing and progressing at a much quicker rate than what I felt rugby was. 'I think that was why I continued with that, but I used to love playing it. Advertisement 'It really helped from the team side of helping you to work together as a unit, all being on the same page, for sure. 'Being a defender, it is important that I win all of my individual battles, and that is the same on a rugby pitch. There is definitely a correlation between the two.' Carter was speaking ahead of a huge summer of sport, and LG is helping the nation get closer to the action with LG OLED TVs. Both the Lionesses and the Red Roses will be on free-to-air TV across the summer as they chase silverware. The Red Roses and the Lionesses joined forces to to reflect on some of the nation's most memorable sporting TV moments and the importance of visibility (imagecomms) And for Carter, visibility is key to make sure that the next generation knows what is possible for them. Advertisement She added: 'It is incredible, I would love to have been able to know that I could have been a female rugby player as a profession if I wanted to. 'But I felt like there wasn't really an option, it was just that I was playing women's rugby as a hobby. I didn't even know you could do rugby as a profession. 'Obviously now that is an option, and I think it is really amazing that the Red Roses are paving the way, similar to how we are, and they are now setting the standard. 'They are proving, like we are, that you can play anything you want to and compete at any level you want to.' Members of the two England women's teams caught up with LG at St George's Park recently as part of the leading TV manufacturer's ongoing partnership with The FA and the RFU. The LG All In Pledge encourages people to engage and watch women's sport. Together we can grow support through fandom and audience numbers to inspire new players to pick up the sport themselves, as watching changes everything. For more information, go to
