Alexander Isak, Liverpool Drama See Newcastle Revisit Interest in PSG's 19 Goal Scorer

Yahoo2 days ago
Gonçalo Ramos' future at PSG has been uncertain all summer, sparking plenty of transfer speculation around the Portuguese striker. While recent signs suggest he could remain in Paris, one Premier League club is still pushing to land him.
Ramos finished the 2024-25 season with 19 goals and six assists in 46 appearances. Whether that's enough to lock down a regular starting spot at PSG remains unclear, but the club is reportedly keen to keep him amid the speculation.
Earlier this month, CaughtOffside reported that Ramos' lack of minutes at PSG has caught the attention of several Premier League and Serie A clubs looking to add a proven goal scorer.
According to the report, Newcastle United, Manchester United, Aston Villa, and Liverpool are all weighing potential summer moves. Liverpool are said to be eyeing Ramos as a long-term addition, while Manchester United reportedly see him as a backup option if other striker targets don't work out.
For now, the Reds are prioritizing Newcastle's Alexander Isak, but if that chase falls through, Ramos could quickly move up their list.
Newcastle United rekindles interest in PSG standoutAmid the rumors linking Ramos away from PSG, the Daily Mail's Craig Hope reports that Ramos is back on the agenda for the Magpies, as they continue their search for strikers amid Isak's attempt to force a move to Liverpool.
Recently, transfer expert Fabrizio Romano weighed in on Ramos being Plan B for Newcastle United if the pursuit of Benjamin Sesko doesn't go their way.
'As of now, Sesko has not decided yet,' Romano wrote in GIVE ME SPORT's newsletter. 'Newcastle are waiting. Ramos is appreciated but PSG want to keep him, it'd take a huge proposal to try change things.'

Stefanski likely to reveal Browns' starting QB for opener this week

CLEVELAND (AP) — Coach Kevin Stefanski is expected to announce this week the Cleveland Browns starting quarterback for the Sept. 7 opener against the Cincinnati Bengals. 'I want to get through the next couple days. But certainly that's something that we're going to do here sooner than later,' Stefanski said on Sunday about announcing his starter. 'I need to get the football team in here, talk to the players, those type of things.' The Browns were off on Sunday after their 22-13 victory over the Philadelphia Eagles. They return to work on Monday with practices leading up to Saturday's preseason finale over the Los Angeles Rams mostly being geared like a normal game week. 'We'll give the guys a normal game plan as you would get ready for the game," Stefanski said. "We will do more competitive periods than we would say in the regular season, so we'll do plenty of Browns versus Browns in practice, as well as introducing carded periods where we'll be simulating the Rams offense and defense.' Joe Flacco has not played in either preseason game, but has seen most of the first-team snaps throughout camp as well as getting plenty of work in joint practices against Carolina and Philadelphia. The 40-year old Flacco is the only one of Cleveland's quarterbacks in the four-way competition that has not been sidelined because of an injury during training camp. Kenny Pickett has been mostly limited the past couple of weeks after suffering a hamstring injury on July 26. Shedeur Sanders missed the second day of joint practices against the Eagles and did not play in the game after suffering an oblique injury last Wednesday. Stefanski was optimistic that Pickett or Sanders could possibly return to practice sometime this week. Sanders got the start against Carolina and completed 14 of 23 passes for 138 yards and two TD passes. Dillon Gabriel, who did not play in the preseason opener at Carolina on Aug. 8 because of a hamstring strain, played the first half against the Eagles. In five series, he completed 13 of 18 passes for 143 yards. Three of the drives resulted in points while the other two ended with turnovers, including a 75-yard, pick-6 by Eagles safety Andrew Mukuba. What pleased Stefanski the most about Dillon was that he completed all six of his passes on third down. The Browns were 6 of 8 on third down in the first half. 'Protection was good. We were able to find completions. But those third down conversions were huge,' Stefanski said. ___ AP NFL:

Lions Fans React to Injury Update on Sam LaPorta

Lions Fans React to Injury Update on Sam LaPorta originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Detroit Lions are gearing up for another NFL campaign after winning the NFC North title in 2024. Unfortunately, the team just got some unfortunate injury news before the start of the 2025 season. On Thursday, Lions head coach Dan Campbell announced that third-year tight end Sam LaPorta has suffered an undisclosed injury. The injury is not considered "major," but the 24-year-old pass catcher is expected to miss at least a few days with the issue. "LaPorta will be down. It's not major, but he will miss a little bit of time here," Campbell said before the Lions' second joint practice with the Miami Dolphins on Thursday. While LaPorta's injury is not considered serious, some Lions fans are sounding the alarm on what could spell future injury issues for the star TE. "I don't like this," one wrote. "He seems injury prone," another added. "This team is cursed, if it weren't for the injuries last year, they would have won the Super Bowl," another said. "Don't overreact. Just be right for Week 1," another wrote. LaPorta burst onto the NFL scene as an elite tight end weapon in 2023, reeling in 86 catches for 889 yards and 10 touchdowns in his rookie season with the Lions. His record-breaking statistics regressed in Year 2, seeing him collect 60 catches for 726 yards and seven touchdowns. The Lions will face off against the Dolphins in their next preseason matchup on Saturday afternoon. The team will kickoff its regular-season schedule with a matchup against the Green Bay Packers on Sep. 7. This story was originally reported by Athlon Sports on Aug 14, 2025, where it first appeared.

Amorim unhappy that 'clear' foul went unpunished for Arsenal's winning goal against Man United

MANCHESTER, England (AP) — Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim believed Arsenal's winning goal in the teams' Premier League match at Old Trafford on Sunday should have been disallowed for a 'clear' foul in the buildup. United goalkeeper Altay Bayındır was put off by Arsenal defender William Saliba as an inswinging corner was delivered by Declan Rice in the 13th minute. As Saliba backed into Bayındır, the goalie flapped at the ball and only managed to knock it across the line toward Riccardo Calafiori, who nodded in from close range. That ultimately secured a 1-0 win for Arsenal and Amorim was disappointed the goal was allowed to stand. 'I think it's clear,' Amorim said. 'Players are touching the goalkeeper without the idea of going for the ball. That is not allowed.' The Portuguese coach added: 'It's protecting the attacking guy and saying that we want (more) goals. But when you are touching the goalkeeper in that way, I think it's hard.' United captain Bruno Fernandes said that in a meeting arranged ahead of the season, the Premier League said referees will call for more fouls if players are blocking opponents at set pieces and not looking at the ball. 'But we know they are just saying that,' Fernandes said. 'Altay was saying the moment he goes to punch the ball, he gets a touch. But obviously we know in the Premier League, they don't give much in those type of situations.' ___ AP soccer: The Associated Press
