🚨 Reports: £117m man leaves City, Grealish finds new club

Yahoo17 hours ago
In 2021, Manchester City secured the services of Jack Grealish for a club-record fee of 117.5 million euros. After a mixed four years, the Englishman is now on the verge of leaving the Skyblues. This is reported by transfer expert Fabrizio Romano and 'The Times' in agreement.
According to reports, Grealish will be loaned to league rivals FC Everton. He has already agreed on a contract with the club from Liverpool, with Everton taking over a large part of the salary he receives at ManCity, which is said to be around 300,000 pounds per week, according to 'The Times'.
Grealish is reportedly already on his way to the medical check.
Everton is confident that they can deploy the winger in the season opener against Leeds next weekend.
For the 29-year-old, this will be his third station in the Premier League, after Aston Villa and the Cityzens.

Disabled campaigner takes on M&S over ‘discrimination' at York store

A disabled campaigner from York has taken on Marks and Spencer after alleging she was discriminated against at a city store – and won. Flick Williams, a visually impaired wheelchair user, described the case as a 'David and Goliath fight' which showed 'disabled people don't have to just sit back and accept discrimination'. An M&S spokesperson told The Press it is 'committed to making our stores accessible to all our customers' and is 'grateful for Ms Williams' engagement on how we can continue to improve accessibility in store'. Ms Williams' legal action against the supermarket giant followed a visit to the M&S food hall at the Vangarde Centre last June. She said she had arrived at the store to shop for herself and her 91-year-old mother but found a refurbishment had resulted in the chiller cabinets becoming enclosed and behind closed doors.

'I could not even find the items I wanted because the doors were misted up,' she said. 'And then trying to open the doors proved impossible as I couldn't manoeuvre my wheelchair, pull the door and reach in all at the same time. I ran out of arms!' Ms Williams said she tried to locate a member of staff to assist, then found that the store's customer service desk had been removed during the refurbishment. 'I was frustrated that there was nobody available to help me, so I left the store without being able to make a purchase,' she said. Ms Williams said M&S told her the new cabinets had been introduced to make them more energy efficient. She said the company had also suggested she phone the M&S store in advance of her next shopping trip to ensure there would be a member of staff to help her. But the disability rights campaigner said she 'couldn't accept that'. 'Non-disabled people aren't expected to telephone in advance of going shopping which makes it discriminatory. 'The failure on the part of this food retailing giant was not to properly consider the needs of all their customers in their plans.' Flick Williams outside the M&S food hall at the Vangarde Centre in York (Image: Flick Williams) Ms Williams took legal action against M&S under the Equality Act 2010, which she said has now been settled out of court. She said the Vangarde Centre store has now made 'significant improvements' by lowering the handles on chiller doors and treating the doors to prevent them misting up. M&S also gave assurances that staff would be available to assist customers, she said. Ms Williams shared the incident on X (formerly Twitter) at the time and it received 11,000 likes and more than 300 replies. 'I was overwhelmed by the response,' she said, adding that the replies showed 'this was an issue affecting many people's ability to shop independently as they always had done. And that strengthened my resolve to seek legal redress.' 'We can and will challenge unfair practices,' says campaigner She continued: 'It was a David and Goliath fight that shows disabled people don't have to just sit back and accept discrimination, we can and will challenge unfair practices. 'I'm delighted that the changes to the store resulting from my case have removed some of the barriers that made it unreasonably difficult for many to shop there.' The M&S spokesperson said: 'We are committed to making our stores accessible to all our customers, and work with AccessAble to help us do that with access guides covering inside and outside our stores. 'We always strive to ensure colleagues are on hand to help every customer and we always take customer feedback on board. 'We're grateful for Ms Williams' engagement on how we can continue to improve accessibility in store.'

I would give Liverpool's Rio Ngumoha the same advice I would tell Lamine Yamal

Freddy Adu, the former United States international best known for his emergence as a teenager, has urged Liverpool starlet Rio Ngumoha to stay grounded in his attempts to make the senior grade at Anfield. Adu became the youngest athlete to sign a professional contract in American sports history when he penned a deal with DC United in 2004 at the tender age of 14. But despite becoming the youngest player to make their debut in Major League Soccer that year before a call-up to the United States national side in 2006, Adu struggled to live up the impossible hype on the other side of the Atlantic, and ended up having a nomadic career that saw him turn out for 15 clubs in total before retiring in 2021.

Adu admits he was put on notice by Ngumoha's early strike in the friendly victory over Athletic Club at Anfield last week and the now 37-year-old has some words of advice for an England youth international whose reputation is beginning to soar. "So I didn't know much about him as a player until I heard about him because of the game against Athletic Bilbao," Adu, speaking exclusively to epl odds said. "But for him to be able to do that at the age of 16, that's impressive. "For any 16-year-old to do that, that's not by accident, especially doing it for a club like Liverpool. That's not by accident. "For you to be able to do that at that age, you clearly have to be uber talented and for him, I would say the same thing as I would say for Lamine Yamal - just keep the main thing, the main thing. "Keep it about football. Don't make it about anything else. People are going to sing your praises when you do well, and the same people are going to just pile on you when you're not doing well. "So you can't get too high and you can't get too low, you gotta sort of keep an even keel. Keep your head down, keep doing exactly what you were doing that got you to where you are." Ngumoha was an unused substitute during Sunday's Community Shield penalty shootout defeat to Crystal Palace at Wembley.
