LONDON (AP) — Sarina Wiegman has signed a contract extension to stay as head coach of the England's women team through the 2029 European Championship, the FA said on Monday.
The Dutch coach, who will turn 57 later this month, led the Lionesses to a second straight Euros ****** le last year, having also steered the team to the World Cup final in 2023.
"I am so happy to be able to carry on with this squad and cannot think of a better job in football," she said. "Of course, anyone who knows me will understand that my main concern right now is absolutely the World Cup, and helping this squad realize their potential in the years to come."
Wiegman's previous deal was due to expire after the 2027 women's World Cup, which is scheduled to take place in Brazil next June. England will qualify for the tournament if it defeats Ukraine in a two-leg playoff, with the return game at Wembley Stadium on Dec. 5.
Wiegman, who was appointed as England coach in 2021, has reached five successive major tournament finals, having already claimed the European crown with the Netherlands in 2017.

England women's head coach Sarina Wiegman has signed a two-year contract extension taking her through until the end of the 2029 women's European Championship, the Football **** ociation announced Monday.
Wiegman has led England to tournament triumphs at both the 2022 and 2025 Euros, as well as a first World Cup final in 2023, since taking charge in September 2021.
The 56-year-old Dutchwoman has reached five successive major tournament finals, also winning Euro 2017 with her native Netherlands.
"I am so happy to be able to carry on with this squad and cannot think of a better job in football," Wiegman said Monday.
England, beaten by Spain in the 2023 World Cup final in Australia, will face Ukraine over a two-legged play-off in November and December for a place in next year's tournament in Brazil.

The fragment is from Book 12, when Zeus curses Odysseus' men for killing and eating Helios' sacred cattle.
A researcher was perusing a collection of old Egyptian texts in a Dutch library when he stumbled upon a torn piece of parchment containing a pivotal story: a section from Homer's "Odyssey." The fragment appears to be from a pocket edition of the epic produced in Egypt around A.D. 300.
The researcher, Mark de Kreij, a Greek literature expert and professor at Radboud University in the Netherlands, found the parchment while studying early Christian manuscripts that the Utrecht University library purchased in the mid-20th century, according to a Sept. 14 statement from Utrecht University. Among a collection of Egyptian and Greek texts, de Kreij found a tiny piece of parchment with words he recognized from Homer's epic.
"There are so many boring parts in the Odyssey," de Kreij told RTV Utrecht. "This happens to be a really fun passage."

At the Solheim Cup, we watched pros do something difficult that a lot of average golfers attempt, too: play team golf. It's different from typical stroke play, or even one-on-one match play events. Pros, like the test of us, usually play their own ball. But in the Netherlands, they had to play with a partner in foursomes and four-ball. It's a serious change from what they're used to.
Making that shift from playing your own ball to playing a team format might be something you struggle with, too. We talked to Megan Johnston, a Golf Digest Best Young Teacher at Big Cedar who played on the Northern Ireland junior team with Solheim Cup standout Leona Maguire, about how average players can more seamlessly make the transition into team play.
"The biggest adjustment for the average golfer is realizing that the goal of the format may not be to shoot your lowest individual score," Johnston explains. "In four-ball, foursomes or a scramble, you're making decisions based on what your team needs. That changes everything—from club selection, to risk management, to how aggressive you should be at the right times."
This is how Johnston says you should think about these two different team formats.

CROMVOIRT, Netherlands – For the first time in 20 editions, the Solheim Cup is tied after one day.
The U.S. and Europe split each of the first two sessions and are deadlocked at 4-4 entering the weekend at Bernardus Golf.
"We took a big swing from 'em today," U.S. captain Angela Stanford said. "We took some of their best body blows today. So, I just told 'em I was proud of 'em and they hung in there, and I'm excited about tomorrow because I feel like we're a heavyweight fighter. We fight with our mentality, and we're just going to see how long we can last, and I feel pretty good about how long we can go."
Here are some takeaways from a cool, rainy Friday in the Netherlands:

As Solheim Cup rivalries were renewed for the 20th time, Carlota Ciganda once again stole the show after Europe's top pairing of Charley Hull and Lottie Woad failed to ignite against the United States at Bernardus Golf Club in the Netherlands
The 36-year-old Spaniard, who is the oldest player on show this weekend, let out a roar of pure emotion after holing a 15-foot putt to earn Europe what had seemed an unlikely half point in the final fourball match of the day to ensure honours are even at 4-4 heading into Saturday.
Ciganda's celebration evoked memories of the nerve-shredding finale at Finca Cortesin in 2023, when her putt allowed Europe to retain the trophy with a 14-14 tie.
And once again Nelly Korda was on the receiving end.
The world number one, and her playing partner Lauren Coughlin, both left match-winning putts short to allow Ciganda, who had crucially won the 16th hole with an eagle, to deliver a stunning reprieve for Anna Nordqvist's team.

A full day came down the final hole Friday in the 20th Solheim Cup.
And, once again, Carlota Ciganda delivered.
Wide off the tee on the par-4 18th and even farther right with her second shot, the 2023 Finca Cortesin hero, saved par from 12 feet to tie her match and keep the overall competition even entering Day 2.
Europe and the U.S. are knotted, 4-4, after the opening two sessions at Bernardus Golf in the Netherlands. In danger of falling behind on home turf, Ciganda added to her Solheim legend in teaming with fellow Spaniard Julia Lopez Rameriz, a cup rookie, to secure an improbable tie against Nelly Korda and Lauren Coughlin.
The sides split the morning foursomes, with the U.S. capturing the first two matches and the Euros claiming the latter two.

Two princesses are rewriting the rules on what a future queen is supposed to look like — and the story is told entirely with their jewelry boxes. Spain's Princess Leonor and the Netherlands' Princess Amalia are both heirs apparent, both members of the same Gen Z cohort now stepping into royal life, and both destined, eventually, for a crown. But side by side, they could not be telling more different stories with their jewelry.

Diamonds have always carried outsized meaning in royal circles — treasured by some dynasties, quietly set aside by others, but historically the clearest marker of status that Europe's reigning houses had at their disposal.
That symbolism is fracturing along generational lines. As Gen Z heirs move into the spotlight, the old formula of grand dynastic jewels signaling status is splitting in two: one path toward deliberate restraint, the other toward unapologetic opulence.
Leonor has planted her flag firmly in the first camp, favoring costume pieces, pearls and low-key designers over anything resembling a vault heirloom. Amalia has done the opposite, reaching for the Orange-Nassau family's most formidable pieces when the occasion calls for it.

Queen Máxima brought her signature flair to a working engagement in the Netherlands on Thursday, stepping out in an autumn-ready printed dress for a symposium focused on the future of health care.

Queen Máxima of the Netherlands didn't just show up at a cattle farm in Veenhuizen this week — she turned it into a runway. Joining King Willem-Alexander for a visit to a dairy operation in the province of Drenthe, Máxima swapped her usual ****** nal of bold colors, oversized volumes and unexpected jewelry for something different: a distinctly autumnal palette. The effect landed somewhere between countryside and cinema — a queen in brown and burgundy, topped with a dramatically tilted wide-brimmed hat and tasseled earrings, standing among cows and calves.

In true Máxima fashion, there was room for a laugh amid the pageantry. One of the farm's calves had been born just minutes before the royal couple arrived, and Máxima was given the honor of naming it. Her options: Wilhelmina or Máxima. "Then, Máxima," she said, laughing.
The queen's midi-length brown dress leaned into a silhouette tailor-made for the shift into fall weather. A round neckline left room for a subtle, elegant hint of décolletage, while the sleeves — constructed in small cape-like layers — gave the whole look a sense of movement with every step.
The most flattering detail sat at the waist, where gentle gathering pulled the fabric in just enough to define her shape before letting the skirt fall freely. The dress needed no further embellishment: between the sleeve volume and the cape's motion, it carried plenty of presence on its own.

CHENNAI: The road to the World Test Championship (WTC) final for India is getting tougher, with every series carrying greater significance. The task has become even more challenging after they failed to win the final Test against Sri Lanka recently.

India's next step takes them to New Zealand for a two-Test series, having not won there in a decade and a half. NZ's premier left-arm spinner Mitchell Santner, who is leading Edinburgh Castle Rockers in the ongoing European T20 Premier League (ETPL), told TOI in an exclusive chat that India's pace attack, led by Jasprit ***** rah, will play a major role in the final outcome of the series. Excerpts...

How crucial will it be for India to adapt to conditions given only a few players from the current set-up have played Tests in NZ?

The first thing is to try and understand the conditions as quickly as possible. A few players have been there before and done well. In Oct-Nov, the pitches can play differently compared to Feb-March. So, early in the season in New Zealand, the ball might move around a little bit. It is about getting your head around that.

What's your take on India's pace attack?

Bumrah leading the attack and being able to nip and swing the ball will hold the key. (Mohammed) Siraj has done it for a long time as well and (Prasidh) Krishna is obviously bowling well. There is a lot of variety, which is what you need.

Did you have a look at Manav Suthar?

He has been very impressive since he made his debut. He gets nice and tight to the stumps and gets good shape on the ball. He does bowl with good overspin when he needs to and that is the key in NZ, trying to get a bit of bounce especially if there is grass. I think there is still a role for a spinner in NZ, especially in Tests alongside the quicks, whether it is first or second innings when the pitch might be holding up. On days four and five, it could spin a bit. Whether it is Jadeja or Suthar, both are very good options.

What do you think about India's struggles in Test cricket recently?

I think it has always been a challenge. They always play the best teams, and then having to adapt to the conditions quickly is the main thing. But they have got all bases covered.

How important is ETPL for the European players, who don't always get to play a lot of top-quality cricket?

It is perfect for Scottish, Irish and players from Holland. It gives them more exposure and opportunity to play against some good players. We have seen how good they are in their own right. To be fair, in the last few years, we have had some great games against Ireland, Scotland and the Netherlands. You throw a few overseas players in, and the tournament (ETPL) is really strong.

There is some great cricket on show already, which is good. And we are only halfway through.

Nelly Korda is the No. 1 in the world, a multiple major winner and an Olympic gold medalist.
Still, for all her individual accolades, nothing in golf beats putting on the Team USA uniform and representing her country at the Solheim Cup.
"There's no greater feeling," Korda says, "especially stepping onto that first tee box."
This week could be even more special for the biggest name in women's golf.
Korda is spearheading the United States' attempt to win the Solheim Cup on European soil for the first time since 2015 in the matches that start Friday in the Netherlands. After regaining the crystal trophy in 2024, the Americans need only 14 points at Bernardus Golf course to keep possession.

Europe's royal families are mourning the loss of a man who, for them, was a true role model. For thirty-five years, King Harald was the example that new generations of royals looked up to, a sovereign whose reign was defined, among other things, by the warmth and closeness he showed in each of his public appearances. His absence will be forever recorded in the pages of history and has unleashed a wave of emotion among today's monarchies, who have not hesitated to express their feelings and their love for the late King.
It was Queen Mary, during one of her first engagements after his passing, who chose to speak from the heart to reveal the closeness she shared with Haakon of Norway's father, a gesture that King Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands has echoed from afar, continuing this tribute of affection.

COPENHAGEN, Sept 4 (Reuters) - Five European nations aim to sign deals this year to send migrants without legal residency ‌to countries outside the European Union, they said at a meeting hosted by Denmark on ‌Friday.
Germany, Austria, Greece, Denmark and the Netherlands said they had agreed on concrete steps towards a deal with a non-European Union country on return facilities, the latest effort by European nations to reduce immigration.
The countries, known as the Group of Five, did not name the nations they expect to host return centres.

Richarlison's situation at Tottenham has become increasingly complicated after a proposed move to Trabzonspor failed to materialise before the Turkish transfer deadline. As first reported by The Standard, the Brazil forward is now facing a shrinking market, with several possible routes already closed and very few obvious solutions left before the season moves on without him.
The key issue is straightforward. Richarlison has been left out of Tottenham's Premier League squad, a significant indication that Roberto De Zerbi does not see him as part of the immediate plan in north London. Everton had been linked earlier in the window, but that avenue went nowhere. Trabzonspor then emerged as a credible option, yet that deal also fell away before Friday's deadline.
That leaves Tottenham and Richarlison in an awkward position. Scotland, Belgium and the Netherlands are no longer open markets, while MLS is also off the table. The realistic alternatives are now fewer and more specialised.
Saudi Arabia stands out as the clearest remaining possibility, with its transfer window open until October 12. For players who have fallen out of the picture at Premier League clubs, that pathway has become increasingly common. Portugal could also hold some appeal, both stylistically and linguistically, with Primeira Liga clubs able to sign players until September 15.

A former employee has filed a class action lawsuit against Ceva Logistics, alleging the freight giant failed to protect highly sensitive personal information stolen during a recent cyberattack that impacted operations in Europe.
Hackers gained access to Ceva Logistics systems and data in late July, which disrupted operations at eight warehouses that provide store replenishment and e-commerce fulfillment for retailers in the Netherlands and other European countries, as FreightWaves reported. The legal action suggests that customers were not the only ones affected by the data breach.
Why It Matters: France-based Ceva is one of the largest third-party logistics providers, with more than 1,000 warehouses worldwide. Last year the company generated $18.3 billion in revenue.
Kevin Krupa, a former employee, sued Ceva Logistics late last month in U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas, in Houston, where Ceva's U.S. headquarters is located.
The complaint alleges that the personal information of employees, including bank account details and social security numbers, was stolen during the cyber intrusion, which never would have happened had the company taken appropriate precautions following a similar incident a year earlier.

Chelsea have moved quickly in the free-agent market, opening discussions with Georginio Wijnaldum after an abrupt and damaging end to their midfield plans. According to Caught Offside, the Blues have made contact as they search for a short-term solution following Enzo Fernandez's £125m move to Manchester City.
The timing is what gives this story its edge. Chelsea had been working to reshape their midfield before the deadline, but those plans fell apart. Fernandez was sold, while a move for Monaco's Lamine Camara broke down late on. That sequence has left Xabi Alonso looking for experience and immediate availability, and Wijnaldum fits both requirements.
The key line from the report is clear, Chelsea have "formally contacted Wijnaldum's representatives to discuss a possible return to the Premier League." For a club that has largely built around youth, this is a notable shift. Wijnaldum, now 35, has been without a club since departing Al-Ettifaq and remains eligible to sign despite the transfer window being shut.
There is logic to that. He offers Premier League pedigree, European-level experience and a calm profile in a position that now looks thinner than Chelsea expected. The report describes him as "an attractive short-term option for Xabi Alonso", particularly in the context of losing Fernandez and missing out on Camara.
From Chelsea's perspective, the attraction is obvious. Wijnaldum has won the Premier League and Champions League, and his 96 Netherlands caps underline the level of know-how he would bring into the dressing room. The article also notes that Chelsea need "experience, reliability and leadership in midfield", which feels a fair reading of the current squad balance.

It's hard to imagine a better birthday call than the one Auston Kim of St. Augustine got from U.S. Solheim Cup captain Angela Stanford on Aug. 16.
Kim was whiling away a Sunday afternoon during a break from her LPGA schedule playing frisbee in the backyard of her St. Johns Golf and Country Club home with her sister, August. Kim then got the call from Stanford, who was at the site of the LPGA event in Portland, Ore., to let her know that she had qualified on points for the U.S. team that will play Europe Sept. 11-13 at the Bernardus Golf Club in Cromvoirt, Netherlands.
"It was a good birthday present," Kim said on Sept. 1 after a practice session at her home course. "Completely unexpected. If I had played a tournament that week, I would have been on-site, and it would have been a lot different. I wasn't in a golf mode."

Crystal Palace have signed Netherlands international midfielder Quinten Timber (25) from Marseille, both clubs have announced. Jurriën Timber's twin brother has signed a five-year deal with the Eagles. Palace have struck a reported €20m agreement with OM, who were in dire need to free up funds through player sales. Les Phocéens have gone the entire summer transfer window without making a single signing. Having joined OM from Feyenoord for €4.5m last winter, Timber has made 17 appearances in the white and blue since his arrival.
The 13-capped Netherlands international was part of Ronald Koeman's 2026 World Cup squad, and featured twice for his national side in America this summer. "With vast experience of representing his club and country at the highest level, Quinten is a player whose leadership, tenacity and ability we are confident will flourish in the Premier League", said Palace chairman Steve Parish. Timber could make his Premier League debut this weekend against Fulham FC.

Ismael Saibari recently went back to the Netherlands to officially bid his old club PSV Eindhoven goodbye after completing a move to Bayern Munich:
In this clip, a whole section of PSV fans chanted his name:
Here, you can see more pictures of Saibari inside the stadium and photos of fans holding up flags bearing the Moroccan doing his signature salute celebration:
Saibari hit the ground running for Bayern Munich, impressing the club with his performances in preseason and making an impact on his Bundesliga debut. "Isi", as he is affectionately called within the team, bagged two ****** ists in Bayern's opening match of the Bundesliga season against Stuttgart in which he ****** isted the final two goals of a 5-1 rout. In doing so, he joins a club of players who bagged a brace of ****** ists on their Bundesliga debut.
The moment he scored that equalizer on a chilly January night in Eindhoven in the Champions League, Bayern knew they had to keep tabs on him. That decision was solidified in the World Cup after the 24-year-old shone on the world stage for Morocco. Bayern worked extensively behind the scenes and got their man, and hopefully he'll give the Bavarians that edge to fulfill their quest for glory.

Scotland and the Netherlands have tied their one-day-international series 1-1 after the third match was abandoned without a ball being bowled at Stirling County following heavy and persistent rain throughout the day.
The series was arranged at short notice as the Dutch women sought to regain their ODI ranking and avoid a substantial funding cut next year.
The visitors won the opening match by 58 runs at Clydesdale, with the Scots securing a convincing nine-wicket victory in a rain-affected second in Stirling.
However, it does mean that the Dutch have done enough to secure their ranking and much-needed funds.

Olympique de Marseille and Crystal Palace are reported to have reopened negotiations regarding a potential transfer of Quinten Timber (25), according to information from L'Équipe.
Believing that the depth and quality of their midfield is sufficient, OM's management – who continue to seek funds to meet the financial constraints imposed by the National Directorate for Financial Control (DNCG) – are said to have opened the door to the departure of the Dutchman.
Talks regarding a transfer worth over €18m are reportedly underway, alongside those being conducted by the Eagles in an attempt to finalise the deal for Malick Fofana (21).
Having joined OM from Feyenoord for €4.5m last winter, Timber has made 17 appearances in the white and blue since his arrival.
An international, the Utrecht-born player has earned 13 caps (one goal) for the Netherlands. Under contract with Marseille until 2030, he is valued at around €25m by the specialist website Transfermarkt.

In a recent post on X, respected journalist Fabrizio Romano offered an update on Manchester City and their pursuit of Liverpool winger Cody Gakpo. It is believed that the Mancunian club are confident about recruiting the Dutch talent once the Reds find a replacement for him in this transfer window.
Gakpo enjoyed a good run of form at the Merseyside club but struggled to be consistent for them in the Premier League. Still, the 27-year-old deserves credit for scoring nine times and picking up six **** ists in 52 matches for Liverpool last season across all fronts.
The Dutch sensation is currently among the most talented wide players in Premier League football. Therefore, it is no surprise that Man City are eager to land him in this transfer window.
His current contract at Anfield will run out in the summer of 2030, so the Mancunian club would do well to get a deal done for him before the end of this month.
