Cristian Chivu will certainly have his work cut out for him as Inter Milan coach.
The Romanian will have to get the team back on track mentally after a turbulent, and in the end devastating, few months.
The Nerazzurri can't simply slip out of the hunt for trophies. But at the same time, there is a sense that they must refresh and start a new cycle, and build for the future.

In the view of the Gazzetta, there is a particular core of players Cristian Chivu must win the trust of at Inter.
The Nerazzurri have put together a solid core of Italian internationals in the last half a decade.

In particular, Alessandro Bastoni, Federico Dimarco, and Nicolo Barella are all key figures.
In the dressing room, these Azzurri players are certainly leaders for Inter.
And if Chivu can establish a strong rapport with these players, it will be exactly the right foot on which to start his work.

Trade Idea Moves Dolphins' Tyreek Hill to Cardinals
Trade Idea Moves Dolphins' Tyreek Hill to Cardinals originally appeared on Athlon Sports. In the immediate aftermath of the Miami Dolphins' final regular season game of 2024, which resulted in the Florida-based franchise missing the playoffs, wide receiver Tyreek Hill made his stance on returning to the team as clear as can be. Advertisement "I'm out, bro," Hill told reporters in the locker room after the game. A move out of Miami has yet to materialize for Hill, who has not made any public statements about wanting to leave since January and attended the Dolphins' mandatory minicamp this week. Bleacher Report's Alex Kay believes that will not be the case by September, as he suggests the Dolphins' front office should field calls with that of the Arizona Cardinals. Kay predicts the Dolphins' return package will include two draft picks – a third- and fourth-rounder in 2026. The financial ramifications of the deal should be incentive enough for Miami to move Hill, Kay wrote. Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (10) practices during mandatory minicamp at Hard Rock Navarro-Imagn Images "Hill's contract calls for him to earn $27.7 million in guaranteed salary this season, but cutting or trading him would result in a manageable dead money hit of just $12.8 million. It would also free up nearly $15 million in immediate cap room," Kay wrote. "With the 'Phins sitting on just $14 million in available cap space — the sixth-lowest in the league — a breakup makes plenty of fiscal sense." Advertisement Kay likes the Cardinals as an ideal trade destination for Hill because it would provide them with a one-two punch at a position the team has not pursued aggressively in the draft or trade market so far this offseason. "The team is on the rise under head coach Jonathan Gannon, going from 4-13 in his first season to 8-9 last year. The receiving corps still needs a jolt, however, as Arizona avoided making any major splashes in free agency or the draft at the position," Kay wrote. "While the Cardinals have a foundational pass-catcher in Marvin Harrison Jr. to build around for the long haul, adding Hill would give quarterback Kyler Murray the weapons he needs to contend in wide-open NFC West races this coming year and over the next few seasons." Hill, who was named to the NFL's 2010s All-Decade Team, has put together a laundry list of accomplishments since his rookie season in 2016. He is a Super Bowl champion, a five-time First-Team All-Pro, and an eight-time Pro Bowler.

Why thousands of NCAA athletes might wait over a year for share of $2.8 billion settlement
The attorney who negotiated the $2.8 billion legal settlement for the NCAA said Friday that thousands of former athletes due to receive damages could have to wait months or maybe more than a year to get paid while appeals play out. Rakesh Kilaru, who served as the NCAA's lead counsel for the House settlement that was approved last week, told The Associated Press an appeal on Title IX grounds filed this week will hold up payments due to around 390,000 athletes who signed on to the class-action settlement. He said he has seen appeals take up to 18 months in the California-based federal court where this case is playing out, though that isn't necessarily what he expects. 'I will say that we, and I'm sure the plaintiffs, are going to push,' Kilaru said. A schedule filed this week calls for briefs related to the appeal to be filed by Oct. 3. Kilaru doesn't expect anyone on the defendant or plaintiff side to file for extensions in the case 'because every day the appeal goes on is a day damages don't go to the student-athletes.' He said while the appeal is ongoing, the NCAA will pay the money into a fund that will be ready to go when needed. The other critical parts of the settlement -- the part that allows each school to share up to $20.5 million in revenue with current players and set up an enforcement arm to regulate it -- are in effect regardless of appeals. 'I think everyone thought it was important and good for this new structure to start working because it does have a lot of benefits for students,' Kilaru said. 'But it's very common for damages to be delayed in this way for the simple reason that you don't want to make payments to people that you can't recover' if the appeal is successful. A group of eight female athletes filed the appeal. Their attorney, Ashlyn Hare, said they supported settlement of the case 'but not an inaccurate one that violates federal law.' "The calculation of past damages is based on an error that ignores Title IX and deprives female athletes of $1.1 billion,' Hare said. Kilaru agreed with plaintiff attorneys who have argued that Title IX violations are outside the scope of the lawsuit. Other objections to the settlement came from athletes who said they were damaged by roster limits set by the terms. One attorney representing a group of those objectors, Steven Molo, said they were reviewing Wilken's decision and exploring options.

ESPN Pundit Makes Major Kylian Mbappé Claim After PSG Win Champions League Final
PSG won the first UEFA Champions League in club history after the departure of Kylian Mbappé last summer with a dominating 5-0 win over Inter Milan on Saturday night at Allianz Arena. The capital club scored two goals in the first half thanks to a goal from Achraf Hakimi and Désiré Doué. It was an amazing start for the capital club and the contest would only get better for Luis Enrique and his team. Advertisement In the second half, PSG recorded three goals for a convincing win as Doué, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, and Senny Mayulu all scored for the Ligue 1 side to cruise to a Champions League victory. ESPN pundit takes aim at Kylian Mbappé after leaving PSG last yearAs PSG were on their way toward winning the Champions League, ESPN's Herculez Gomez decided to take a dig at Mbappé for now buying into what Luis Enrique was selling regarding being a forward who needs to track back and contribute defensively along with his attacking duties. Gomez notes that Ousmane Dembélé has bought in and is reaping the rewards of his choices. Advertisement 'Not long ago, Luis Enrique was trying to convince Mbappé of the importance of defending for the team,' Gomez wrote on X. 'Now, it's Dembélé who is making strides and is a legitimate Ballon d'Or candidate, on the verge of lifting his first Champions League trophy.' It will be interesting to see if Dembélé, who had two assists in the 5-0 win, is now the favorite to win the Ballon d'Or.
