Celtic and Rangers face growing competition to sign £10m-rated star, 23, available for knockdown fee
He's a former youth international and can be snapped up on the cheap at just 23 TRANSFER TALK Celtic and Rangers face growing competition to sign £10m-rated star, 23, available for knockdown fee Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) EVERY other summer there is at least one player who's linked with both Rangers and Celtic - and so the battle begins. Go back to Nacho Novo in 2004. Or Luis Palma more recently in 2023. And who could forget Scott Brown being courted by both sides of Glasgow in 2007? Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 Tyrhys Dolan will be a hot property this transfer window Credit: Getty This year the man who could be the subject of a similar fight is Tyrhys Dolan. The Blackburn Rovers winger has been valued at around £10m but he has ran his contract down at Ewood Park and will be available for a fraction of that. Dolan, 23, made his pro debut with Rovers in 2020 and the Championship club will be a due a compensation fee if he signs elsewhere. Similar rules saw Celtic snap up Moussa Dembele from Fulham on the cheap and Rangers followed a similar route to lure Joe Aribo from Charlton. We told you earlier this month that both Old Firm were tracking Dolan. At that point there was still a chance (however slim) that he would sign an extension at Blackburn. But now that he's all set to leave, it's perhaps no surprise that the list of clubs interested in him has grown. Norwich-based news outlet The Pink Un is reporting that Dolan is on the summer transfer wish list for Norwich City. The Canaries are still waiting to officially unveil new boss Liam Manning but with Rangers yet to have finalised their next manager, it would appear Celtic may have a head start in the race. Claims down south have also suggested Middlesbrough as a potential destination but local reports say those are just rumours at the moment. Rangers fans react as 49ers takeover completed Dolan scored seven goals and provided six assists in 47 games for Blackburn this season. The former England Under-20 international was reportedly on the list of wingers Celtic were considering around the time they convinced Jota to return. But a cruciate ligament injury will keep him out of action until the New Year and with James Forrest not getting any younger, reinforcements will be needed. Rangers will soon part with £4.5m to make the signing of Oscar Cortes permanent but he has struggled with injuries since the day he first arrived at Ibrox. The expiration of Vaclav Cerny's loan deal also leaves whoever takes over at Gers needing to replace the goal threat he offered.

Hounds and Heroes pairs veterans with therapy animals
(NewsNation) — Hounds and Heroes has helped veterans by pairing them with rescue animals, offering companionship to those coping with post-deployment challenges. The nonprofit serves veterans suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder and traumatic brain injury, as well as amputees, providing emotional support through trained therapy dogs. Founder Bonnie-Jill Laflin, who comes from a military and law enforcement family, said she was inspired to launch the organization after completing 19 USO tours — eight in Iraq and Afghanistan. Savannah Bananas honor veteran awarded two Purple Heart medals She told 'Morning in America' on Wednesday that she witnessed the impact deployments had on service members. 'With the suicide rate being so high, I just knew there was something I could do, and my love for animals and veterans,' she said. 'I was like, let me rescue all these dogs in the shelters that would otherwise be euthanized, and I'll pair them up with veterans.' One of those veterans is U.S. Army specialist Nick Dolan, who was partnered with a service dog named Guinness. Dolan said the bond has been life-changing. 'He's meant a lot to me,' Dolan said. 'I have no idea where I'd be. It would have been a good struggle for me at least. He takes away a lot of the stress in everything — he's a great companion.' NewsNation celebrates Fleet Week skydiving with Navy SEALs Laflin said that there's a sense of a lack of judgment with the animals that allows veterans to heal. 'We've seen veterans make progress that other forms of therapy haven't been able to achieve,' she said. 'We're able to connect these veterans with these dogs, you just see the strides that these veterans make that people can't do. 'Working with the VA and lobbying on Capitol Hill, I make sure that people realize that you don't need to put a lot of prescription meds with these veterans. These dogs can make such a big difference instead.' Hounds and Heroes also offers equine therapy, in which veterans rebuild trust and confidence through interactions with rescued horses.

Patrons support Phoenix LGBTQ+ owned ice cream shop where teens were robbed at gunpoint
A steady flow of traffic the afternoon of May 27 at Lix Uptown Ice Cream was a contrast to only a few nights before when police cordoned the business off as they investigated an armed robbery. Lynette and Scott Smith, both in their 60s, and daughter Amber Riley, 39, drove from separate corners of metro Phoenix to lend monetary support to the shop at Seventh Avenue and Osborn Road. "It's the best place in the Valley," Scott Smith said after he and Lynette, both from Ahwatukee Foothills, and Riley, of Goodyear, enjoyed a cold treat as Phoenix temperatures hit triple digits. Surveillance video captured a man pointing an apparent firearm at two teenage employees as they emptied a cash register. The robber ran off with $300 about 9:30 p.m. May 23 after frightening the two women, 18 and 19, who were working the shift, Lix owner Richard "Richie" Dolan detailed. "They're resilient," Dolan, 58, said about the employees, one of whom only started two months ago. He added that the incident must have left them contemplating, "I could be dead now." Dolan wondered why his establishment was targeted, mentioning he was presented with a giant prop check at the PHX Arena for $5,000 a few months before. Lix received the Business of Pride award, which is bestowed annually by the Phoenix Suns and FirstBank to an establishment owned by someone who is LGBTQ+. "Maybe they saw that on TV," Dolan said. Lix opened three and a half years ago after Dolan had run two 24-hour restaurants at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport for a large Valley-based dining company. Overwhelmed by the demanding schedule, Dolan opted to start his own business after receiving praise from neighbors in the Melrose District who tried the ice cream samples he left at their doors. A sweet aroma filled the air at the colorfully decorated eatery as Dolan helped a first-time customer select a to-go ice cream cup. All options are lactose free with a daily rotation of 12 ice cream flavors, he explained. The shop was preyed on before with an overnight break-in where the intruder left $450 in property damage and nabbed $150 from the change drawer, according to Dolan. The shop owner said he no longer leaves money in the drawer after hours. Dolan voiced optimism the case would be solved since there was video of the incident and Phoenix police dusted for fingerprints that night. On May 27, Phoenix police said a detective was working the case, and no suspects had been identified. Anyone with information was urged to call Silent Witness at 480-948-6377 or 480-837-8446 for Spanish speakers. A reward of up to $1,000 is available for tipsters who provide information leading to an arrest.

Cardinal Dolan receives award from Becket for religious liberty leadership
Cardinal Timothy Dolan of the Archdiocese of New York was named the Becket Fund's 2025 Canterbury Medalist, an award that honors his career-long commitment to religious liberty. May 26, 2025 In his speech, Cardinal Timothy Dolan said he is in 'good company' in defending religious freedom, along with the legal team at Becket and the founders of the United States. | Credit: Photo courtesy of Becket By Tyler Arnold Cardinal Timothy Dolan of the Archdiocese of New York was named the Becket Fund's 2025 Canterbury Medalist, an award that honors his career-long commitment to religious liberty. 'His Eminence has been a towering figure in the fight for religious liberty, not just for Catholics, but for people of all faiths,' Becket President Mark Rienzi said in a statement. 'Cardinal Dolan's leadership in the public square has shaped the national conscience on religious freedom and strengthened the resolve of those who defend it.' Becket, a nonprofit law firm that represents clients who are defending their religious liberty in court, awarded Dolan the medal during its annual gala in New York. According to Becket, the honor recognizes individuals who demonstrate courage and commitment to defending religious liberty in the United States and globally. Dolan said in an acceptance speech, which was provided to CNA by Becket, that he is 'grateful' to receive the award. 'I hardly deserve this high award,' Dolan added. 'Yet, I readily admit that you are absolutely [spot on] to claim I am intensely devoted to the protection of our 'first and most cherished liberty,' religious freedom.' In his speech, Dolan said he is in 'good company' in defending religious freedom, along with the legal team at Becket and the founders of the United States. 'They and their parents had come here precisely because they were frustrated in countries where religion was imposed or proscribed, nations where battles were waged to coerce religious conviction, where they were hounded and harassed for their beliefs,' he said. 'Not here, they insisted!' Dolan said. 'This was not the way they, or, most importantly, God intended it. Nothing is more free than creedal assent; nothing merited more protection than religious freedom; nothing deserved more top billing in our Constitution.' Dolan said religious liberty is 'part of our very nature that cannot be erased' and necessary for the respect of 'the dignity of the human person.' 'Our passion for this primary liberty is not just because we happen to be a believer or a patriotic citizen, but because we are a person endowed with certain ingrained rights,' he said. Dolan was recently appointed to serve on President Donald Trump's Religious Liberty Commission, which will create a report on threats to religious freedom and strategies to enhance legal protections to preserve those rights. It will also outline the foundations of religious liberty in the United States. Previously, Dolan has served as president of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) and has led the USCCB's Committee for Religious Liberty. According to Becket, the cardinal has also staunchly defended religious freedom through testimony before Congress and when engaging with the media. 'Religious freedom isn't just about protecting what happens in church on Sundays — it's about defending the right of every person to live their faith openly, every day of the week,' Dolan said. 'It's a gift from God — not from government — and it must be protected for people of all faiths.' Other members of the Catholic clergy who have won this award from Becket include University of Mary President Monsignor James Shea and former Philadelphia Archbishop Charles Chaput. Past medalists also include Nobel Peace Laureate and Holocaust survivor Elie Wiesel; Orthodox rabbi of the oldest Jewish congregation in the U.S. Rabbi Dr. Meir Soloveichik; and First Counselor in the First Presidency of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints President Dallin H. Oaks.--CNA
