After an impressive breakthrough campaign at Bayern Munich, Lennart Karl has faced difficulties both on and off the pitch since the start of the 2026/27 season.
The 18-year-old has struggled to rediscover his best form after recovering from the muscle tear that ruled him out of the World Cup. At the same time, his attitude and behaviour off the pitch have recently come under significant criticism from Bayern supervisory board member Uli Hoeneß.
"I plan to have a serious word with him. He is a long way from being a superstar. Young players need humility," Hoeneß fumed in an interview with Welt am Sonntag.
"Comparisons with [Michael] Olise are clearly not doing him any good. There is still a world of difference between them."
According to Bild's head of football, Christian Falk, Karl's situation has put Liverpool, ******* nal and Manchester United on alert, with all three Premier League clubs monitoring developments should an opportunity to sign the 18-year-old arise in the future.

Morgan Gibbs-White is expected to be fit for Nottingham Forest's crucial trip to Ipswich.
The England international missed Sunday's 1-0 defeat to ******* nal with a muscle injury having missed training in the week.
Gibbs-White suffered the problem in last week's loss at Crystal Palace and Forest missed his invention as they slipped to a harsh defeat against the Gunners.
It left them in the Premier League's relegation zone - and goalless and winless in the top flight - going into Friday's trip to Portman Road.
"He was very close to playing and he said he's fine but he felt it a little bit," said Glasner.

Atlético de Madrid have officially announced Diego Pablo Simeone's squad for the trip to Germany. The Rojiblancos face VfB Stuttgart in a decisive match on the third matchday of the UEFA Champions League league phase, with the Argentine coach taking a squad offering a range of tactical options.
The main news in Atlético's travelling squad is the return of Johnny Cardoso. The midfielder is back after missing the last league fixture against Espanyol through injury, providing a key defensive option to strengthen the midfield against the German side.
As for absentees, alongside captain Koke Resurrección, Cuti Romero will also be unavailable, joining Atlético's injury list for this Champions League clash. The defender has a muscle problem and will not be available to Simeone.
In goal, Jan Oblak heads a list of goalkeepers that also includes Juan Musso and academy product Salvador Esquivel. Meanwhile, the defensive options include Dávid Hancko, Marc Pubill, Robin Le Normand and Alejandro Grimaldo, who will underpin the structure set out by the coaching staff.
The squad is rounded out by creative talents such as Álex Baena, Lee Kang-in and Morten Hjulmand, alongside an attacking line led by Julián Álvarez, Alexander Sørloth and Giuliano Simeone. With this squad, Atlético will look to secure three vital points at the Neckarstadion.

Roma will play Matchday 3 of the Champions League league season tomorrow at the Stadio Olimpico against Slovan Bratislava.
After losing 3-4 to Real Madrid and drawing 1-1 at Fenerbahce, the Giallorossi need a win to move up the table.
Gasperini will have Malen back, who missed the last league match due to suspension, and hopes to call up Paulo Dybala.
The Argentine striker is recovering from a muscle strain that prevented him from playing in Castro and Lulli's 2-0 victory over Genoa.
Paulo Dybala could be sitting alongside Castro, who is expected to return to the bench.

Barcelona manager Hansi Flick faces a defensive selection headache ahead of Tuesday's Champions League clash with Paris Saint-Germain, with injuries to Eric Garcia and Jules Kounde leaving him short of natural right-back options.
Garcia is expected to miss three to four weeks with a muscle injury, while Kounde has been ruled out of the trip to the Parc des Princes with an ankle sprain.
Their simultaneous absences leave Flick needing to reshape his defence for one of Barcelona's biggest tests of the season.
On that note, the likes of Xavi Espart and Joao Cancelo are the leading alternatives at right-back, although neither has played regularly in that position this season.
For now, Mundo Deportivo explains that the likely solution could see the academy graduate deployed on the right, with the more experienced Cancelo filling in on the opposite flank.

Barcelona defender Eric Garcia has expressed his frustration after suffering a muscle injury that will sideline him for several weeks, ruling him out of two of the club's most important fixtures against Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid.
The 25-year-old sustained the injury during Barcelona's 5-2 victory over Real Betis, turning a memorable afternoon into a personal setback.
After scoring his first goal of the season, Garcia was forced off in the 90th minute and now faces an extended spell on the sidelines.
The defender has a muscle injury in the rectus femoris of his right thigh and is expected to be unavailable for three to four weeks.
His absence is also set to extend beyond the PSG and El Clasico encounters, with Barcelona facing further fixtures against Alaves, Aston Villa and Atletico Madrid before the second international break of the season.

Manchester United secured a 1-1 draw with Leeds United at Elland Road.
The away side took the lead and silenced the home crowd when a neat move was finished off by Bryan Mbeumo, who scored his fourth goal of the season.
Nonetheless, United have had an issue keeping clean sheets all season, and Dominic Calvert-Lewin muscled his way into the box in the second half to give the home side a share of the points.
The Red Devils have now drawn four, won one, and lost two of their Premier League matches this season, and sit in 13th place in the league.
Commenting on the result while working for Sky Sports, the former United captain stated, "there's a depressed standard and a low expectation right now. But it'll feel like a stepping stone for Michael Carrick, and it'll feel like the first step on the ladder in the Premier League."

Henry Cavill has found himself at the center of a very different kind of online frenzy. A new Googlebook commercial featuring the actor has sparked enthusiastic reactions from fans, with them quickly turning the ad into its own little event.
The excitement comes partly from how naturally Cavill fits the campaign. Google in its blog post, describes him as an "actor, producer and technology enthusiast" whose interests include gaming and "fantasy lore." The company says he also runs his own production company and uses Googlebook for personal projects tied to his creative ambitions.
Googlebook pairs high-end hardware with Gemini Intelligence and adds a grab bag of features, including Continue on phone syncing, Rambler for speech-to-text and Antigravity. Google has built the machine to play nicely with Android devices while still having enough muscle for demanding creative projects and professional workloads.
Cavill also offered a positive first impression after trying the device before its release. He said Google's pitch about its integrated tools intrigued him enough to request hands-on time with the product. After working with the team, he described it as having "the whispers of the next generation."
Online reactions focused on the actor as much as the new computer. One fan joked that "hiring Henry Cavill is cheating" because people would watch him simply set up a printer.

The Seattle Seahawks issued a cryptic but encouraging update regarding the health of injured quarterback Sam Darnold Monday.
While the precise nature of his injury remains ambiguous, the update points to Darnold returning to the field sooner than later.
Per the Seahawks, Darnold sustained a "very unique soft-tissue." The injury is actually to a glute muscle rather than his hip and is considered "short-term."
Here's the full statement released by the Seahawks Monday evening:
"Darnold, who was injured on a sack that ended Seattle's first drive, has a very unique soft-tissue injury, but the hip joint is unaffected by the injury. While there is no firm timeline on Darnold's return, it is considered a short-term injury."

Girona lost 1-2 against Castellón at Montilivi in a match they had under control but let slip away in the final stretch. The Girona team took an early lead but ended up paying a high price for playing with ten men for more than half an hour.
Quique Álvarez's team started with determination and found their reward in the 7th minute. Zamorano capitalized on a rebound from the visiting goalkeeper to score a volley and make it 1-0. Shortly after, however, Bryan Gil had to leave the field due to muscle discomfort, a setback that disrupted the home team's plans.
Girona held off the advances of a Castellón side that gradually gained ground but managed to reach halftime in the lead. In the second half, the match definitively turned when Abel Ruiz received a second yellow card, leaving the team with ten players.
With a numerical advantage, Castellón increasingly dominated Girona, who defended their lead as best they could. However, their resistance crumbled in the final moments. Sienra scored the 1-1 in the 85th minute, and just five minutes later, Álvaro García completed the comeback with the 1-2.
Girona tried until the end but could not find the goal that would have allowed them to salvage at least a point. A painful defeat at Montilivi, after a match that Girona had in their hands but ultimately lost due to being a man down and Castellón's late surge.

Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride will play with a refined passion in 2026. With the 2025 season in his rearview mirror and the Los Angeles Chargers ahead, McBride is hoping that his passion and premier pass-catching can spark the beginning of a new chapter for the franchise.
The Chargers lost defensive coordinator Jesse Minter, who moved on to a head coaching position with the Baltimore Ravens. Still, Chargers safety Derwin James Jr. is on the roster and his skillset poses a significant opposition for McBride. Cardinals head coach Mike LaFleur still has plans on making McBride the focus of the team offense and it'll come down to pure will to determine whether or not McBride can muscle up.
The Cardinals seem to have a competent offensive personnel group at the skills positions but time will tell how their offensive line fares in 2026. Play-action and the quick passing game are both strategies where LaFleur and offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett are likely to call on McBride's jersey number. McBride is quick and physical, plus his route running makes him a mismatch for most opposing linebackers and safeties.
Ultimately, if the Cardinals are to stand a chance on Sunday, they will rely on their passing attack to propel the offense and that'll mean that McBride must be exceptionally magnificent. The Chargers allowed just 19.8 points per game in 2025, but without the mastermind of Minter, McBride might locate a few breaches that can be exploited.

Sandra Bullock revealed two conscious decisions that shaped her film career. While promoting Practical Magic 2 and speaking with Jennifer Aniston, Bullock revealed what gave her the courage to reject 'perverts' at auditions.
When Aniston asked the Gravity star about decisions that shaped her career, one thing that Bullock mentioned in Interview magazine was, "I was auditioning for every pervert that existed asking me to drop my pants. I was like, 'Nope, not the role for me.' I was working my way up. Every working actor thinks you will never work again, so you just take what you can get and make the most of it."
The 62-year-old's other decision was to step away from rom-coms altogether, after the genre began weighing on how she was perceived as an actress. She stated that she wanted to explore other avenues as an actor: "The only time I was intentional about my career was when I said, 'I need to stop right now with the rom-coms,' because I was getting so much ******* for them. And I took a role in this film called 'Crash'… I wanted to start flexing other muscles."
Photo Credit: Warner Bros.
The Practical Magic star has delivered some of the most iconic rom-coms of the 2000s, such as The Proposal, Two Weeks Notice, and Miss Congeniality. It was in 2002 that the actress decided to branch out to other types of roles, returning in a dramatic capacity with the film Crash. However, she didn't step away from rom-coms completely. The frequency decreased, however.

On September 3, a caller mentioned that they are unsure whether to buy, sell, or hold Intel Corporation (NASDAQ:INTC). In response, Mad Money host Jim Cramer said:
Okay, now, let's own this right up front. I got too excited about Intel because I knew it was going to have a good quarter. It had an unbelievable quarter, and the stock went down anyway... Here's the problem: The government has a huge position in it, and they're supposed to be able to sell it if they want to, and we're all waiting for the government to sell the stake, and that's why the stock's been going down. And I have been saying, listen, I may just have to go in and buy more right here, get a better average, and have it come back. I understand it is mixed, but my belief in Intel is 100%. I just need to see the government get out of the stock or just go buy it anyway.
Intel Corporation's (NASDAQ:INTC) fundamental business is finally turning a corner. The company blew past Wall Street estimates with $16.1 billion in second-quarter revenue, fueled by heavy demand for its Xeon data center chips and solid progress on its 18A manufacturing technology. For patient investors who watched management pour billions into rebuilding the company's chip-making muscle, these results offer encouraging signs that Intel's long-term comeback and push into AI hardware are starting to pay off.
Even with those solid numbers, the stock faces a major psychological roadblock: the federal government's massive equity stake. As Cramer noted, investors are sitting on their hands, worried about when and how that big block of shares might be sold off, creating a potential overhang on the stock. Adding to this narrative are structural headwinds in the foundry segment, which continues to report operating losses as it scales up capital-intensive fabrication infrastructure, leaving the stock vulnerable to sentiment-driven pullbacks.
Institutional interest reflects growing engagement along with the company's operational recovery. According to Insider Monkey's tracking data, 138 hedge funds held positions in Intel Corporation (NASDAQ:INTC) during the second quarter, marking an increase from 112 funds in the prior quarter. Short interest stands at 2.57% of the public float, showing a measured level of skepticism without aggressive bearish shorting.

The Seattle Seahawks will likely not have quarterback Sam Darnold available for at least Week 2 against the Arizona Cardinals. Darnold was sacked by Dre'Mont Jones on the opening drive of Seattle's 13-10 win over the New England Patriots, leaving the game with what was described as a hip injury. Thankfully for Darnold and the Super Bowl champions, there was no fracture based on MRI findings, and any absence figures to be short-term and not long-term.
NFL insider Tom Pelissero, who worked for Netflix on the San Francisco 49ers vs. Los Angeles Rams broadcast from Australia, provided some more details on Darnold's injury. He backed up Mike Macdonald's claim that Darnold was dealing with a muscle issue, but did say it was an "unusual" type of strain.
If Darnold ended up on injured reserve at any point before the Cardinals game, he would not be available until at least Week 7 against the Kansas City Chiefs. For as long as the timetable leans toward returning sooner, then perhaps we'll see Darnold back in action at the start of October, when the Seahawks have a two-game homestand versus the Los Angeles Chargers and San Francisco 49ers.
Drew Lock will serve as the starting quarterback while Darnold recovers, while Jalen Milroe would be the backup.

DELMAR - The Columbia football team opened a lot of eyes with its Week 1 victory over Queensbury. For those still wondering whether that win was an aberration, the Blue Devils showed Bethlehem Thursday evening that they are a force to be reckoned with.
Columbia shook off a slow start and registered another impressive all-around performance in posting a 31-0 Class A road victory over the Eagles.
It seemed apropos that Columbia senior two-way lineman Adam Burek departed the field after the game with a sledgehammer draped over his right shoulder. The Blue Devils sure brought the muscle Thursday.
The Blue Devils (2-0 overall, 2-0 Class A) were coming off a resounding 48-27 Week 1 triumph over Queensbury, a team that knocked Columbia out of the Class A playoffs in 2025 and 2024. Thursday, Columbia generated a 443-138 edge in offense and never allowed Bethlehem (0-2, 0-2) to reach the red zone.
"It feels great. We had a great offseason with all the guys. We had a good camp and we have really just brought it together the last two weeks," Burek said.

Nico Schlotterbeck and Ramy Bensebaini have resumed team training after their injuries and are available for the match against Paderborn. "They are fit, healthy, and ready to play this weekend. I can count on both of them," said Kovac.
Konstantinos Karetsas will not be involved after having to be substituted in the match against FC Villarreal due to circulatory problems. Sporting director Ole Book had said of him: "He is doing as well as can be expected under the circumstances. Further tests are being carried out, and we want to get to the bottom of it very thoroughly."
Also unavailable are Emre Can (torn ACL), Filippo Mane (muscle injury), Giannis Konstantelias (torn ACL), and Samuele Inacio (suspension following a red card).
Kovac also had words of praise for new signing Ethan Nwaneri, who came on as a substitute last weekend against Hoffenheim and on Tuesday against Villarreal. "He has settled in superbly. He's a great lad, very calm, down-to-earth, friendly, helpful, and a very good footballer," said Kovac. "In those two brief appearances, he showed that he can help us. I'm very satisfied with him."

3 games Miami WR Malachi Toney could cement his Heisman Trophy race originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
If you haven't heard about Malachi Toney by now, you are living under a rock. The 18-year-old prodigy out of Liberty City, Florida has taken the college world by storm after his astonishing freshman season. He helped lead Miami Hurricanes to another national championship appearance.
Toney's week one performance against Stanford on Saturday will never be forgotten, literally, because he set the Miami Hurricanes' single-game receiving record with 234 yards and a hat trick. Eddie Brown previously set the record in 1984 against Boston College with 220 receiving yards. He finished his 2025 campaign with 1,211 receiving yards, 109 receptions, and 10 touchdowns, leading the team in receptions and receiving yards at 18 years old.
Miami head coach Mario Cristobal was asked about Toney on the Pat McAfee Show and gave nothing but praise to his star-studded receiver: "He's put on 12–14 pounds of muscle man; he can accelerate and decelerate at a higher rate." Cristobal said. "He is stronger, he is faster, and then the time he puts in it's never changed, he always tries to push the envelope with that."
Cristobal's praise and the stats tell the story of the player Toney is, but three games could close the door on his competition.

More news keeps dropping regarding Sam Darnold's hip injury, and it continues to be relatively positive for the Seattle Seahawks quarterback.
Netflix's NFL Insider Tom Pelissero reported Thursday night that tests revealed that Darnold has "an unusual muscle strain in his hip area."
Per the report, the Seahawks initially feared that Darnold had sustained a fractured hip socket that could have threatened his season. Testing ruled that injury out.
Darnold will seek further opinions on the injury, per the report, but injured reserve is not being considered at this point. As previously reported, Drew Lock is expected to start in Week 2 against the Arizona Cardinals. Beyond that, Darnold's game status is unclear.
Lock took over at quarterback after Darnold's injury on the first drive Wednesday night and led a 13-10 comeback win over the New England Patriots in the NFL's season opener.

Lane Thomas was a late scratch in the Braves lineup today. We have heard why from Walt Weiss.
I'm not a doctor, but as I understand it an intercostal strain is slightly different from an oblique strain. An intercostal strain affects the muscles under the ribs. An oblique strain affects the sides of the abdomen. In any case, it's an Injured List visit for Thomas. He will join Bryce Elder as the second Braves player placed there this week.
In case you missed it, Mauricio Dubon pulled away from the plate with an oblique issue in today's game. According to reports, Walt said postgame that he felt something in his back and it wasn't a big deal. We might see DaShawn Keirsey Jr. on the active roster for the Philadelphia series tomorrow, but we don't know at this point. I'm not sure what the Braves will do if that Dubon goes down. We will see more of Ha-Seong Kim, I'm sure. But I'll take two hits a game like today while he's gone.
Oblique injuries are going around. Y'all be safe out there.

Seattle quarterback Sam Darnold received good news Thursday about the right hip injury he suffered in a Seahawks NFL victory over New England, but a return timetable remains uncertain.
Seahawks coach Mike Macdonald told Seattle radio station KIRO on Thursday that Darnold's injury is a muscle strain rather than joint damage after Seattle's 13-10 home win over the Patriots on Wednesday.
While multiple reports said Darnold is expected to miss next week's game against Arizona, Darnold has likely avoided a long-term absence.
Darnold exited the NFL 2026 season opener after only five plays because of a hip injury suffered when he was sacked, limping to the locker room.
"The hip is intact and it's good. It's more of like a muscle thing," Macdonald said. "So that's good news."

Reevaluate your ******* umptions about the Mountain West. Many thought the summer realignment would disband the league. Five established teams transferred to the Pacific, resulting in a conference with a stable core and several new members.
But after two weeks, led by head coach Jason Eck and his staff, who exerted their muscle in the first game of the year against Central Michigan, a new reality has taken shape, centered in Albuquerque with these Lobos.
After a dominant and impressive opening game in Albuquerque, the New Mexico Lobos have become the conference favorites.
With championship experience from Fargo and tough competition across the region, the new Mountain West has not only survived but looks to be a heck of a conference after all.

The way that we dress often reflects how we feel – and vice versa, what we wear can impact our mood, too. It's why we often turn to jogging bottoms and hoodies when we're depressed, or dressing fabulously when we're happy. Indeed, many of us dress for how we want to feel, with the dopamine-inducing effects of clothes becoming a popular sartorial philosophy. This is certainly the case for 58-year-old Canadian singer Celine Dion, who has debuted a series of frivolous and fun looks ahead of her comeback concert on September 12.

The singer – known for hit Nineties power ballads including My Heart Will Go On and It's All Coming Back To Me – will perform 10 shows over five weeks at the Paris La Défense Arena, after taking a six-year break due to ill health. She suffers from a rare neurological condition, Stiff Person Syndrome, which causes stiff muscles in the arms, legs and torso, and can be extremely painful. At one point, the syndrome made it difficult for Dion to sing.
Following years of treatment, Dion is now ready to perform again. And her attitude to fashion proves it, as she's showcased a variety of different sartorial personalities in the run up – from tailoring with jeans, to the classic "little black dress".

Liverpool have finally got a win on the board under Andoni Iraola, beating Ipswich 2-0 at Portman Road with Alexander Isak scoring both goals. Useful, professional, no drama. Now attention shifts to availability, because the fixture list does not slow down and Liverpool's squad still has too many names in the treatment room.
The headline is straightforward. Joe Gomez is the closest of the current absentees to coming back, and that matters. He offers depth, experience and flexibility across the back line, which becomes important very quickly once European games begin.
X: AnfieldAgenda
Gomez lasted fewer than 10 minutes in Liverpool's first pre-season friendly before suffering a muscle injury. At the time, Iraola said: "He will be some weeks off. It's a muscle injury and [with] muscle injuries it is difficult to say one day, but normally I always put [it] as one month."
The situation has improved. Ahead of the trip to Ipswich, Iraola gave a more encouraging update: "Joe will probably start training with us next week, and it has gone normally. The recovery from a muscle injury – more or less, we were expecting the time on this. I hope we can have him before the break, let's say.'"

TAIPEI, Sept 7 (Reuters) - Taiwan flexed its chip diplomacy muscles at a major trade show last week, portraying itself as a democratic and reliable supplier for the AI revolution, while signalling ‌a willingness to share the benefits of its semiconductor prowess with like-minded partners.
Home to companies like TSMC whose ‌chips power AI applications, diplomatically isolated Taiwan has long sought to leverage its tech prowess to garner international support, something Beijing routinely seeks to block saying the island is merely one of its provinces.
But Taiwan also faces pressure from the United States, its most important international backer and arms supplier, to shift more chip manufacturing there. That comes as TSMC is investing $265 billion in factories in the state of Arizona.
President Lai Ching-te, who, unusually, spoke at two separate events on the same day at the SEMICON Taiwan trade show, said Taiwanese companies were ‌expanding globally to "let resilience create shared prosperity", and ⁠that the island's chip strength was based on democracy and rule of law.

With their sights set on securing their fourth win of the tournament, Chivas are ready for another Apertura 2026 challenge. Guadalajara are already in the capital of San Luis Potosí, where they will visit Atlético de San Luis at Estadio Libertad Financiera in a Jornada 7 matchup.
Ahead of this game, Gabriel Milito and his coaching staff have selected the 22 players who make up the rojiblanca squad, with an important return to the Rebaño standing out and generating plenty of anticipation among Chivahermanos.
What are the changes to the squad?
Daniel Aguirre has been included in the squad and could make an appearance against the Potosinos.
Miguel Gómez experienced intense pain during one of the training sessions. After undergoing the corresponding imaging studies, it was confirmed that he has suffered a muscle injury. His return to competition will depend on his recovery.

Chelsea's season is barely underway, yet questions are already emerging around Estêvão's role under new head coach Xabi Alonso.
According to ESPN Brazil, the young Brazilian is concerned that his opportunities could be reduced under Alonso, despite wanting to remain at Stamford Bridge. The report, written by Renato Senise, suggests the player has privately discussed his situation with close ****** ociates.
The timing is significant. Estêvão missed the final stretch of last season because of a right thigh muscle injury suffered in April, which also ruled him out of the World Cup. Having returned to Chelsea, he now faces a difficult battle for regular first team football.
Alonso has taken charge of only three Chelsea matches so far, two in the Premier League and one in the English League Cup, but the early signs have prompted concern.
Estêvão made a seven minute appearance against Fulham before starting against Luton Town in the cup. He was then an unused substitute during Chelsea's 4-3 victory over Brighton.

Liverpool have confirmed their squad for the league phase of the Champions League, with Federico Chiesa and Wataru Endo among the notable absentees.
Both players have been left out of the 25-man group, in a decision that could raise further questions over their respective positions within the squad.

Chiesa has already missed Liverpool's opening two Premier League matches due to a muscle problem and will now have to watch the Champions League campaign from outside the squad.
The Italian's omission is particularly significant following the changes Liverpool have made to their attacking options during the summer.
