The Men's First Team are in Serie A action on the road on Sunday, 13 September, travelling to Emilia-Romagna to take on Sassuolo on Matchday 4.
Ahead of the game, coach Luciano Spalletti gave his traditional MD-1 press conference.
"We'll start by saying that we're sorry about what happened to [Manuel] Locatelli. His absence, though, spreads responsibility across everyone because he's always attentive to everything. This week I've seen a team that's very willing to fight against whatever it comes up against, a team that's trained very well.
"Because of the individual pressure players carry now, there's much more freedom on the pitch, so we've used different systems. Nothing changes without Locatelli in that sense. We can use any system because we have a squad that allows us to do that.
"[Weston] McKennie and [Andrea] Cambiaso are unlikely to be there tomorrow. Andrea will do a fitness test tomorrow morning. But [Pape Matar] Sarr will be available.

Lili Reinhart kept things effortlessly cool during a recent outing in London, pairing a delicate slip dress with a rugged leather jacket for a look that balanced soft and edgy in equal measure. The actress stepped out for a visit to Capital Buzz on September 8, drawing attention for her laid-back take on off-duty style.
Lili Reinhart pairs delicate slip dress with Saint Laurent leather jacket in London. Reinhart wore the Theory Velima Slip Dress, a cream-toned piece held up by nothing more than two thin straps. The dress featured a loose, tiered silhouette that fell just above the knee, with soft, flowing fabric that gave the look an airy, undone quality despite its minimal strap construction.
Over the dress, Reinhart layered a black leather biker jacket from Saint Laurent, noted as a secondhand find rather than a new purchase. The structured, moto-inspired jacket added a sharp contrast to the softness of the slip dress underneath, giving the overall look a lived-in, rock-and-roll edge.
She finished the outfit with Golden Goose's Kurt Boots, a slouchy black leather style priced at $1,130, along with Elisa Johnson's Dakota Sunglasses, retailing at $135. Photos from the outing show Reinhart walking confidently along a London street, her blonde hair loose and tousled as the jacket slipped slightly off one shoulder.
The London stop comes in the middle of a packed press run for Reinhart's new film, "The Love Hypothesis." Just a day after this street style moment, she stunned at the film's London premiere in an archival plunging Emanuel Ungaro dress, and she recently wore a custom Rodarte beaded tulle gown for the film's German premiere.

Manuel Neuer is one of, if not, the greatest goalkeeper of all time. While he hasn't been the subject of much praise in recent months, we now have an opportunity to come and celebrate the legendary goalkeeper. This week after his start against Bodø/Glimt, Neuer became the oldest German player in the history of the Champions League.
He has now surpassed legendary German Jens Lehmann, who also played as a goalkeeper. It does seem to be goalkeepers breaking these records, but that doesn't take anything away from this accomplishment. Neuer's longevity is simply brilliant, no matter how much his performances have cooled down over the years.
At 40 years and 167 days, Manuel Neuer became the oldest German player in the history of the Champions League, overtaking Jens Lehmann pic.twitter.com/3QHaV1PMoM
While it is an opportunity to celebrate, some fans might take the opportunity to look at this a bit more skeptically. Is this an amazing accomplishment? Yes, but perhaps a world-class squad such as Bayern Munich should aim to have a different choice in goal, considering the club's starting goalkeeper is now over 40 years old.
Looking at other top clubs such as Real Madrid, ******* nal, and PSG, Neuer's age certainly does stand out in comparison to these club's goalkeepers. Food for thought.

Alexander Zverev has performed better than any other ATP player at Grand Slams this year.
Men's tennis had been dominated by Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz over the past couple of years, with this year's Australian Open being the ninth consecutive major one of them had won.
This all changed at Roland Garros, where Zverev won his first major **** le after Sinner suffered a shock early exit.
Zverev has now reached the US Open final, his third consecutive Grand Slam final this year, and after his win over Karen Khachanov, he spoke about his impressive season at the major tournaments and how it compares to Sinner and Alcaraz.

Sept 8 (Reuters) - The U.S. Supreme Court declined on Tuesday to reinstate a Republican-drawn congressional map in Missouri ahead of November's midterm elections, dealing a setback to President ‌Donald Trump and the party's odds of maintaining its slim majority in the House of Representatives.
Conservative ‌Justice Brett Kavanaugh denied Missouri's emergency request to suspend a state Supreme Court ruling that blocked the map, a decision that preserves the Kansas City-based seat of longtime Democratic Representative Emanuel Cleaver, whose district would have been dismantled under the redrawn boundaries.
Kavanaugh, who handles emergency matters from Missouri and several other states, did not refer the matter to the nine-member court before issuing the decision.
Missouri Republicans adopted the map as part of a broader effort backed by ‌Trump to redraw congressional districts in ways ⁠that could benefit Republican candidates.

Juventus had won their first two games of the season, but it would be entirely fair to say that they had come close to leaving those matches ruing missed opportunities. Each of them could've been put away long time before they were, and indeed one of the major talking points headed into Sunday's matchup against AC Milan was the fact that the Bianconeri had gotten the results without reaching the level of performance they desired. Milan were in the same boat, winning two straight under new manager Ruben Amorim but not convincing in either. It felt as though the team that managed to perform better would be the likelier to come out of the Allianz on top.
It was ultimately Juve that had the better of a game that was equal parts chaotic and sloppy. But once again they failed to take advantage of their performances. They failed to make the most of the chances they made over the game's first 70 minutes before Milan scored on — stop me if you've heard this one before — their first shot on target of the match. It took until the second minute of stoppage time for Juve to finally even things out, when Federico Gatti powered home a Teun Koopmeiners cross from six yards to earn the Old Lady a 1-1 draw.
The problems for Juventus were the same as we've talked about all season so far. The finishing wasn't nearly good enough, the passing was disjointed and often inaccurate, and overall creativity seemed to be lacking. But in spite of all of that, they can honestly say that they were the better of the two sides and deserved victory — even more so when you consider the fact that Milan's goal really should've been disallowed for a foul in the buildup that was never flagged by VAR. Considering they were missing seven players due to injury, several of whom were extremely important, it's far too early to start abandoning hope of a successful year—provided they make the improvements that their play so far suggest is possible.
Luciano Spalletti was missing Kenan Yildiz, Weston McKennie, Khéphren Thuram, Andrea Cambiaso, Jeff Ekhator, Juan Cabal, and Pape Matar Sarr. His 4-2-3-1 formation gave several players their first starts of the year. Guglielmo Vicario started behind the back four of Pierre Kalulu, Bremer, Jhon Lucumí, and Zeki Celik. Manuel Locatelli and Douglas Luiz started in the middle of the park, while Francisco Conceição joined Nico González and Kerim Alajbegovic behind Randal Kolo Muani in attack.
Amorim missed Matteo Gabbia due to an ankle injury, but returned a few players to the starting lineup who had been eased back into things after long World Cup runs. Mike Maignan started in goal, ahead of a 3-4-2-1 setup that was a slight tweak to Amorim's usual 3-4-3. Former Juve prospect Koni De Winter joined Strahinja Pavolovic and Mario Gila in defense. Big-money signing Diego Moreira got his first start of the season opposite Pervis Estupiñán at the wing-back spots, while Luka Modric and Yunis Musah manned the double pivot. Adrien Rabiot joined Alexis Saele

Barcelona made an enquiry about Lautaro Martinez during the summer, but Inter Milan were clear about their stance on their captain.
Inter president Giuseppe Marotta has now confirmed that the Catalan club did make contact over the Argentine striker, although the response from both the Italian side and the player was decisive.

Speaking to DAZN Italia ahead of Inter's meeting with Napoli at San Siro, Marotta addressed Barcelona's interest in Martinez and made it clear that the forward remains central to the club's plans.
"The news about Barcelona's enquiry regarding Lautaro is true, but the response was decisive from us and from the player to continue together."

Lazio are eyeing a deal to bring Croatian midfielder Marcelo Brozović back to Serie A following the expiration of his contract with Saudi Pro League side Al-Nassr.
The experienced midfielder spent eight years at Inter between 2015 and 2023, making over 300 appearances for the Nerazzurri, and according to Calciomercato.it, he is open to a return to Italian football.

Furthermore, the reports claim that Lazio head coach Gennaro Gattuso has specifically asked the upper management for a midfielder of similar qualities to Brozovic and the club are therefore considering a move.
After a slow start to the summer transfer window, Lazio accelerated their business in the closing stages of the market, securing deals for the likes of Albert Guðmundsson, Andrea Pinamonti, and Josip Šutalo.

On its face, France and India do not have much in common. France is a NATO ally; India has remained outside any alliance system. France had numerous colonies around the world and maintains relations with many of them since they achieved independence. India was not one of those countries — it was the jewel in the British crown.
Yet both states have a common self-perception as independent poles in a multipolar world.
Despite its membership of NATO, France's long-standing refusal to join NATO's nuclear planning group reflects both its determination to maintain the independence of its nuclear deterrent and policy of what president Emmanuel Macron calls "strategic autonomy." And he is extending a French nuclear umbrella to other European states.
India, like France, is a nuclear power. It too has long pursued an independent national security policy. New Delhi did have close military and economic relations with the Soviet Union and still is a major purchaser of Russian oil. Nevertheless, the former leader of the non-aligned group of nations has no formal alliances and does not seek any.
Although France and India have maintained good relations since India achieved independence in 1947, their ties reached a turning point in 1998. That was when India conducted five nuclear tests and Washington issued sanctions against India. France did not. Indeed, France upgraded its strategic relationship with India that year.

Andrea Locatelli's 2026 has slid far enough that Yamaha is reshuffling his garage midseason. Starting from the French Round at Magny-Cours, the Pata Maxus Yamaha rider will work with a new crew chief, Emanuele Martinelli, replacing Giulio Nava for the final four rounds of the year, WorldSBK.com confirmed.
Niccolo Canepa, Yamaha Motor Europe's road racing sporting manager, spoke to the WorldSBK world feed during FP1 at Magny-Cours and did not dress up the situation. "On Locatelli's side, the results have been lower than the expectation, we can't hide from that," Canepa said. "We needed a bit of a reset to help him regain his confidence. To reshuffle the people in the garage could be a positive thing."
Andrea Locatelli walks the Magny-Cours track with his new Crew Chief Emanuele Martinelli.
The move comes after a campaign that has fallen well short of what the #55 delivered a year ago. Locatelli sits outside the top 10 in the 2026 standings, a stark drop from the fourth-place finish he managed in 2025, when he battled Alvaro Bautista and Danilo Petrucci for third and finally broke through for his first WorldSBK win in Race 2 at ****** en. This season he has yet to reach the podium at all. His best result is a fifth in Race 2 at Phillip Island, with his only other top-six coming in Race 1 at ****** en. Locatelli faces his first season without a podium in WSBK.

Cam Newton is calling out the commonality between Troy Aikman, Tom Brady, Cris Collinsworth, Kirk Herbstreit, Tony Romo, and J.J. Watt.
After Dan Le Batard highlighted the perpetual cycle of white guys getting most NFL broadcasting jobs, especially in primetime, Newton continued the conversation on his 4th & 1 show, wondering what metric networks use to hire ******* ysts.
"Is it the position you played? Is it your resume as a player?" Newton asked. "Or is it just the likability? Because if we're talking about how did Kirk Herbstreit get that deal? We know how Tom Brady got his deal. How does Tony Romo get his deal? We know how Troy Aikman got his deal. How does Cris Collinsworth get his deal? These are all mainstream color commentators that we see. We're seeing these faces, as if to say Charles Davis is not capable…RGIII is not capable. Jonathan Vilma, is he capable? Jason McCourty, is he capable?"
Newton went on to note Louis Riddick briefly had a primetime ******* yst role on Monday Night Football until ESPN tapped him on the shoulder to say Joe Buck and Troy Aikman were taking over. Newton also cited Nate Burleson and Michael Strahan as NFL players turned media personalities who are more than qualified to be a lead ******* yst on a primetime game.
"Do you not think Ryan Clark is capable? We've seen it," Newton continued. "Brandon Marshall, he's a sharp guy. You got a guy like Emmanuel Acho, who verbally, his vernacular can hold its own with whoever. Do you always have to be a quarterback? Well, J.J. Watt's not a quarterback. Luke Kuechly is not a quarterback. So what's the metric here?"

FC Augsburg talisman Anton Kade is a doubt to feature for Manuel Baum's team who travel to face Eintracht Frankfurt this weekend.
Kade departed the training pitches early during the week, and it remains unclear whether he'll be fit in time for Sunday's clash.
"He had to cut training short in Wednesday's session - we don't know yet if he's fit for the weekend," explained coach Baum.
The 47-year-old hinted that a decision on the versatile attacker for their meeting with Frankfurt will come "in the next few hours."
Kade made a strong start to the season in their 3-0 win over Schalke, ****** isting Michael Gregoritsch's goal before scoring himself.

In just a few weeks, Emanuele Lulli has taken over Roma.
From a promising youngster from the youth academy to a starter for the first two games of the season, without missing a single minute.
One summer was enough for the Palestrina native to overturn the hierarchy and convince Gian Piero Gasperini to focus on him.
The coach immediately saw something special in the 2007-born winger, and the first results came directly from the pitch. Running, personality, and remarkable stamina: Lulli hasn't struggled to make the leap to the senior ranks and has quickly carved out a place for himself that, on the eve of the season, seemed anything but certain.
This growth hasn't gone unnoticed even at Trigoria.

Real Madrid's visit to Sevilla to face Betis is not expected to be an easy one even if Manuel Pellegrini's side just lost to Levante 5-2 a handful of days ago. They're always a strong home team, so this could be the first time this season that Madrid truly need to defend at a high level if they want the three points.
PREDICTED LINEUPS
Real Madrid predicted XI: Courtois, Dumfries, Konaté, Huijsen, Cucurella, Bernardo, Valverde, Güler, Bellingham, Vinicius; Mbappé.
Betis predicted XI: Valles, Bellerín, Diego Llorente, Natan, Fran García, Facundo, Fornals, Antony, Isco, Riquelme, Cucho.

Kris Boyd has delivered a brutal verdict on the £2.5m Rangers centre-back after a shaky display against Falkirk, arguing that his uncertainty spread through the Rangers defence during Wednesday's 2-1 Premiership win.
The Glasgow Times reported Boyd's comments, made during Sky Sports coverage, after Emmanuel Fernandez endured a difficult night despite his side taking all three points. Boyd focused on the opening half incident that led to Falkirk's equaliser. Fernandez followed an opponent too far, went down looking for a foul and left ******* e behind him. Ethan Ross then delivered the cross, with Kosta Nedeljkovic turning it into his own net.
Boyd saw little excuse for Fernandez's decision-making. He pointed to a loose square pass after the interval, when Jacob Murrell intercepted inside the penalty area before Ivor Pandur rescued Rangers with a save.
He said: "There's a tug, but I'd be more disappointed that my centre-back goes in and attempts to tackle like that.
"It summed up Emmanuel Fernandez's first half. He was really, really sloppy with the ball. You speak about good players making the people around them better — he's the opposite.

Former NFL player Emmanuel Acho came to Tua Tagovailoa's defense after the Miami Dolphins quarterback became the subject of a social media controversy involving an alleged burner account. Acho urged critics to ease up, suggesting the situation may have been the result of someone close to the quarterback managing his online presence rather than Tagovailoa praising himself.
The controversy began after a social media account ******* ociated with Tagovailoa appeared to post supportive comments about the quarterback. Fans quickly questioned whether the Dolphins star was operating a burner account, creating another viral NFL discussion centered on athletes and their sometimes complicated relationship with social media.

Acho offered a different explanation for the unusual exchange. He suggested that a family member, possibly Tagovailoa's wife, could manage the quarterback's social media accounts and may have forgotten to switch back to a personal profile before posting praise.
The former NFL linebacker noted that athletes increasingly rely on relatives, representatives and other trusted people to help manage their social media activity. The arrangement can provide distance from criticism and online harassment, allowing players to protect their mental health while maintaining an active public presence.

King Charles and Queen Camilla attended a garden party marking the 125th anniversary of a charity organization, where the monarch met Pakistan's national cricket team while the Queen mingled with dancers. The outing also marked their first public appearance since Prince Harry and Meghan Markle returned to the UK last month.
King Charles and Queen Camilla attended the Victoria League for Commonwealth Friendship's 125th anniversary. At Clarence House, the monarch also met Pakistan's national cricket team. On the other hand, Queen Camilla conversed with dancers from the Royal Academy of Dance at the London headquarters.
There, she met professionals from various classes, including those aged 55 and over, those undergoing cancer treatments, and people from underprivileged backgrounds. During her visit, she also handed over the Queen Elizabeth II Coronation Award to Christopher Wheeldon, OBE.
Following their royal engagements, they then headed to the British Museum, where they were also joined by French President Emmanuel Macron and first lady Brigitte Macron. Moreover, U.K. Prime Minister Andy Burnham and his wife, Marie-France van Heel, were also present at the museum.
In this visit, they viewed the Bayeux Tapestry, which showcases the Norman conquest of England. The tapestry was loaned to the UK for the first time since its creation, and in exchange, the country promised to send some national treasures to France (via PEOPLE).

Real Madrid's deadline day was not as eventful as many expected, and no major arrival was even on the radar for the night.
What did unfold, however, was a chain of youth player sales and windfalls from second-order transfers, all of which helped add coins to the club's coffers.
One such move, which was expected for a long time but finally closed last night, was the departure of Manuel Angel – the former captain of the Castilla side. Fulham have been close to signing him for a few days now, and Alvaro Arbeloa eventually got his player on deadline day.
Taking to his Instagram after finalising his departure from Real Madrid, Manuel Angel penned a heartfelt note to the fans and the club as he moves on to greener pastures.
"After 8 years, the time has come to close a chapter that has left an eternal mark on my life," his letter began.

Bayern Munich head coach Vincent Kompany has heard the theories that the squad could use a "goalkeeper by competition" strategy, but the boss does not want anyone to think that will be the case for his team during the 2026/27 season.
Against VfL Osnabrück on Wednesday, Kompany will start Jonas Urbig.
"I dismiss the idea of having a dedicated cup or Champions League goalkeeper. We're looking at the fixture list; it's about seeing what's best – also for Manuel Neuer and giving Jonas a chance to shine. I did that once in my first year as head coach, and it was a mistake," said Kompany (as captured by iMiaSanMia). "Jonas Urbig will start in goal tomorrow. Over the course of the season, it will be the same as last term. We've already put an incredible amount of trust in Jonas. He's played in many important matches, such as the cup final. These are milestones that show he can perform in big games."
For the betterment of the squad — and also the health of Neuer and the development of Urbig — Kompany will manage the workload balance as he sees fit and base it on how he ****** ses each player, not on what competition a game is in.
That, indeed, sounds like a plan.

ESPN's NFL Live will have some new competition this season, or maybe it's old competition depending on how you look at it.
Front Office Sports reported Trey Wingo is getting the band back together, launching a new NFL show and YouTube channel with former ESPN colleagues Merril Hoge, Mark Schlereth, and Damien Woody. The OG Football Crew will debut with a NFL season preview Sept. 7, with the show continuing through the Super Bowl.
Wingo teased the idea a few weeks ago, quoting a social media post praising Hoge by saying, "What if I told you. We were putting the band back together?" It became clear Wingo was being serious about the idea when he added "stay tuned" with a link to his YouTube channel. Two weeks later, the idea seems to be coming to fruition just in time for the NFL regular season.
According to Front Office Sports, The OG Football Crew featuring a cast of former NFL Live contributors will air on YouTube every Monday to recap four NFL games from the previous day. Like NFL Live, Wingo will anchor the show with Hoge, Schlereth, and Woody contributing as ******* ysts.
The old guard of NFL Live was pitted against the new guard earlier this summer when Emmanuel Acho claimed Ryan Clark "built" the show "into the juggernaut it is today" after he was controversially laid off by ESPN. Acho added "nobody was watching NFL Live" when it premiered in 1998. The ESPN studio show might have a larger audience and following today than it did in earlier years, but it's ridiculous to claim "nobody was watching." The silly take received plenty of pushback from ex-NFL Live hosts, all who deserve credit for building the show into the juggernaut it is today.

After a banner second quarter earnings season helped push stocks to new highs this summer, there is a new combination at play that could aid the bull run going into the fall — provided oil prices don't explode above $100 a barrel and a hawkish Fed Chairman Kevin Warsh doesn't begin a rate-hiking cycle.
The next stock catalyst is the one-two punch of rising ***** yst profit estimates and fewer estimate cuts.
Earnings are bucking the seasonal revision trend and continuing to inflect upward, Evercore ISI strategist Julian Emanuel pointed out in a new note (see the chart below).
What's more, estimates for the median stock in the S&P 500 (^GSPC) have risen across top-line growth, bottom-line earnings, and free cash flow returns.
"We are living in extraordinary times," Emanuel wrote.
