Liverpool are understood to have had scouts in attendance to watch one midfielder in whom they'd reportedly taken an interest during the summer transfer window.
There were reports earlier in the week that Anfield chiefs had asked Monaco to delay the proposed sale of Lamine Camara to Chelsea after the two clubs had agreed a £47m deadline day deal on which the Ligue 1 club ultimately pulled the plug (Sky Sports).
The Monegasques' sporting director Thiago Scuro apparently told the 22-year-old that he would complete a major transfer 'very soon' in what seems an attempt to keep him sweet for this season before granting him a move elswhere in 2027.
According to Graeme Bailey for TEAMtalk, Liverpool had scouts watching at the Parc des Princes on Friday night as they kept tabs on the Monaco midfielder in their Ligue 1 clash against Paris Saint-Germain.
Camara is said to have played 'a significant role' as his side came from behind to beat the European champions 2-1 and continue PSG's miserable start to the campaign.

We all celebrate the beginning of a new college football season because, no matter what kind of nonsense is happening off the field, we believe that once the competition begins it will unfold the way it always has.
Let the best team win.
That didn't happen in Ann Arbor, Michigan, on Saturday night. Not even close. Instead, the decision to give Michigan an extra second against Western Michigan — when the live video showed the clock expired and Bryce Underwood's Hail Mary pass still in the air — could turn into one of the biggest on-field scandals in college football history.
Welcome to another year of the Misery Index, a weekly feature where Yahoo Sports takes the temperature of college football fan bases that, as college football fan bases tend to do, react badly to losses, or sometimes even wins.
But unfortunately, the 2026 season must start with a story that should make all of us miserable.

Coco Gauff has largely kept her relationship away from the spotlight, despite the considerable attention surrounding her personal life.
The American tennis star has been linked with Jalen Sera since 2023, but details about her relationship have remained relatively limited.
So, who is Sera, and what is known about his relationship with Gauff?

Coco Gauff is back on the tennis court for the 2026 US Open. On September 5, she'll play in the third round of the tournament. The young athlete is just 22 years old, but she already has US Open and French Open ***** les under her belt. In her most recent Grand Slam appearance, she made the semifinals of Wimbledon earlier this summer.
While Gauff keeps her personal life very separate from her tennis career, there's been a great interest in her love life amid her rise to the top of the tennis rankings. Below, we rounded up everything we know.
In 2023, Gauff started dating Jalen Sera. "This is my first real relationship," she admitted in a 2024 Time interview. "To just have someone to talk to who is not involved in tennis at all gives me a fresh perspective."
However, Gauff's August social media activity has sparked speculation that she and Sera may have broken up. She reposted a TikTok video that said, "I am a lover with or without a lover. because love is who i am not who i'm with," and another that said, "How do you expect new beginnings if you don't create ***** e for them. end cycles let people go, let go of an old mindset, create ***** e."

The good thing about this week's series in the land of the Crawford Boxes and the choo-choo is that both Sean Burke and Davis Martin pitched extremely well, a big turnaround from their recent starts and a good sign for the stretch run. The bad thing — well, besides nearly the entire offense — is that Luis Castillo once again demonstrated that while Chris Getz may have had a very nice offseason, he had a miserable trade deadline.
Castillo started out looking good, striking out Jeremy Peña and Yordan Alvarez. He then walked Isaac Paredes on 10 pitches and threw José Altuve a fastball that would have been a strike on Aaron Judge but was nose-high on Altuve. Altuve still sent it into the Crawford Boxes to make it 2-0 Astros.
The lead didn't last long. Braden Montgomery singled off Hunter Brown to lead off the second, and Colson Montgomery followed with a routine ground ball to second. Peña blew the relay, though, and Chase Meidroth followed with an unplayable 50-mph dribbler. Jake Rogers and Sam Antonacci then delivered actual singles to tie the score.
There being no other Sox offensive highlights, what the heck, let's show you the RBIs. First, Jake's:
Nice stop by Peña, nice hustle by a catcher to avoid the DP. Then Sam's, which actually made it to the outfield.

Olympic 200m champion Letsile Tebogo will return to Budapest for the Ultimate Championships next week, but the Hungarian capital is more than just another stop on the athletics calendar for the Botswana sprinter.
It is the city where the 23-year-old announced himself to the world and where his mother Seratiwa watched him make history for his country by claiming two medals at the 2023 World Championships.
This time Seratiwa will not be cheering on her son from the stands, having passed away in May 2024 after a short illness.
Having shared a close relationship with his mother - one she described as being more like a "brother and sister bond" - Tebogo admits that returning without her is difficult.
"I haven't really looked into the fact that I'm going now to Budapest without my mom," he said.

Roma's transfer window may not be over yet.
Tony D'Amico hinted as much yesterday during the press conference at Trigoria, admitting that the squad built over the summer is still missing an attacking player: "Realistically, we're missing a player, someone who could play both roles. We're a little short, but we'll identify another player for January."
But Roma might not even wait until January. When asked about the possibility of intervening in the transfer window for players without a contract, the sporting director replied: "Yes, we're evaluating the free agent market and will decide later."
According to today's Corriere della Sera, the potential deal would also be independent of a possible sale of Salah-Eddine to one of the leagues where the transfer window is still open.
The newspaper, however, rules out a resurgence of interest for Jadon Sancho: the now former Gasperini protégé seems to have slipped off the radar of Roma and its manager.

NFL seasons don't always offer a great sample size to figure out which players have the chance to be long-term starters or stars. But decisions need to be made quickly.
There are more than a few young players whose careers could go either way this season. Some are looking at potentially hitting free agency next year, with no idea if they'll break the bank or be largely ignored. Here are the top 10 players facing make-or-break seasons:

The Texans haven't yet signed Stroud to a big extension. That's because since a magical rookie season, Stroud has turned into a big question. His playoff performance in a divisional-round road loss to the Patriots, when he threw four interceptions, brought about even more skepticism over whether he can be a franchise quarterback. The Texans have a championship-level defense. If they don't come close to a deep playoff run, it'll reflect poorly on Stroud and make a decision on his future even tougher.

The Texas Rangers scored eight runs while the Athletics scored one run.
Where has this kind of game been our whole 2026?
A part of the reason that the Rangers are in the mess that they find themselves in — currently trailing for an AL playoff spot — is the lack of success against teams below them in the standings and especially baffling, a miserable mark against teams trailing them in the American League West.
Tonight, however, they bullied the Athletics in a manner that finally matched expectations. With the A's leading the season series 6-4, the Rangers arrived back home after a two-stop midwestern road trip and promptly dunked on their division rivals.
Though held off the board in the first inning, the Rangers scored runs in each of the next four innings with a couple in the second, a run apiece in the third and fourth frames, and then three more runs in the bottom of the fifth. As if to punctuate the beating, Texas piled on for a final run in the bottom of the eighth.

Celtic are in advanced talks to send winger Michel-Ange Balikwisha to Belgian Pro League club K.A.A. Gent on loan, according to Sky Sports reporter Anthony Joseph. The structure of the deal includes an option for Gent to sign him permanently for around £3.5 million. Balikwisha, 25, has received permission from Celtic to fly to Belgium and complete a medical.
The DR Congo international was brought in from Royal Antwerp for £5.5 million, but the Scottish champions have now deemed him surplus to requirements. His representatives had been searching for a suitable destination for several weeks.
Balikwisha's time at Celtic has been nothing short of a disaster. The Congolese winger arrived from Antwerp last summer with genuine expectations, only to post 0 goals and 0 ****** ists across 14 appearances throughout the 2025/26 season. He hasn't touched the pitch once in the current 2026/27 campaign.
Those numbers tell a brutal story. In the Scottish Premiership, he failed to register a single shot on target, his dribble success rate sat at a miserable 44%, and he contributed just 2 key passes all season. A ghost, in every statistical sense.
The tactical direction under the Celtic manager Martin O'Neill has moved firmly against wide players who lack structural discipline. Balikwisha's profile, an individualistic, flair-driven attacker, simply didn't fit the system's demand for pressing intensity and defensive positional awareness.

Serayah is speaking out about the end of her engagement to Joey Badass citing a pattern of cheating she says she can no longer stay silent about.
The actress posted a lengthy Instagram statement on Monday detailing the split. "After much thought, I have made the difficult decision to end my engagement and relationship with the father of my child, Joey," she wrote. "I loved deeply, believed wholeheartedly in the life we were building, and wanted nothing more than to protect our family."
She continued: "Unfortunately, I also had to face a painful truth: there had been repeated infidelity throughout our relationship, including during some of the most vulnerable and meaningful moments of my life."

Rather than stop at her own situation, she framed the statement as a message to other women. "I share it because too many women are taught to question themselves before they question what is happening right in front of them. If your intuition is telling you something is wrong, listen to it."

Just a few weeks ago, this series looked like it would all but determine the AL Central. While it still will go a long way towards that for the White Sox, a seven-game winning streak by the Cleveland Guardians that has seen them make their case as the only other "contender" in the division.
With the Twins all but out of the race, and the Guardians right on Chicago's heels, this series is an absolute must-win for the South Siders. As they have all season, the White Sox have treaded water as of late. Unfortunately, the Guardians look to finally be making their move.
While the White Sox are currently in the playoffs by 4 ½ games, winning the division is imperative to not only get a home playoff game, but to also likely get the second seed and a bye into the ALDS.
You may be asking yourself: Who are the White Sox going to throw out for game one of this pivotal series? Why it would be none other than Luis Castillo, who has been about as popular in Chicago as Aaron Rodgers. Admittedly, the only significant piece the Sox gave up for Castillo was Seranthony Domínguez, who isn't a good pitcher, either, but Castillo has performed like a double agent for the rest of the AL Central.
In four starts for the team, Castillo has a 5.89 ERA. Most recently, he gave up eight hits and four earned runs in less than three innings of work against the New York Mets last Saturday. To say the crowd was unimpressed by his performance (me included) would be an understatement. Outside of a start against the Cincinnati Reds (0ne hit over seven innings), Castillo has allowed four or more runs in every other effort for the South Siders. While the Twins aren't exactly an offensive juggernaut, fans will still be holding their breath.

Cale Makar and the Colorado Avalanche have agreed to a eight-year, $163.2 million extension, his agency announced Friday. The deal will be worth $20.4 million in annual average value; Makar becomes the first player in the NHL to sign a deal exceeding $20 million in annual salary, via insider Frank Seravalli.
Makar is entering the final year of a six-year, $54 million extension he signed in July 2021. He was set to become an unrestricted free agent next summer.
Getting a deal done now allows Makar and the Avalanche to ensure the contract is for eight years. Once the NHL's new CBA goes into effect on Sept. 15, maximum contract lengths cannot exceed seven years.
The Avalanche confirmed the deal with a video of Makar, in which he said he "couldn't be more excited" to stay in Colorado for the long-term future.
Makar, 27, is entering his eighth NHL season, all with Colorado. Since breaking into the league during the 2019 Stanley Cup Playoffs, the UMass product has won the Calder Trophy as rookie of the year, been named to the NHL First All-Star Team four times, won two Norris Trophies as the NHL's best defenseman, and helped the Avalanche to the 2021-22 Stanley Cup ******* le, where he was also named postseason MVP.

Roma is working to provide Gian Piero Gasperini with an attacking winger to complement the lineup of Dybala, Soulé, Mora, and Pellegrini, while excluding the three central attackers Malen, Castro, and Vaz.
A key player is still missing; the lack of a left winger with the ability to sprint at pace is palpable. D'Amico's eyes are on Malick Fofana and Gittens.
Gasp is confident that the Friedkins have been convinced to make one last effort, but there are no significant progress signs for either the Lyon or Chelsea winger. However, beware of potential surprises.
Gian Piero Gasperini expects another striker from the current transfer window, which ends on September 1st at 8:00 PM.
As Corriere della Sera reports, sporting director Tony D'Amico is keeping in mind an alternative, which he has been quietly working on, in addition to Gittens and Fofana.

The NFL is back to monopolize our minds and, in some cases, our souls. There's really no such thing as an offseason for football in America, but if you have managed to avoid the NFL machine over the past six months, I'm here to help.
The preseason is the land of possibilities, ripe territory for hot takes and predictions. None of us have any idea what will actually unfold over the next six months. If most of these preseason predictions are destined to age poorly, we should at least get a solid playlist out of it. So, I took it upon myself to project all 32 teams' definitive theme songs for the 2026 NFL season.
Consider this your guide — a cheat sheet when you need a talking point at your next watch party — before the 2026 regular-season opener between the New England Patriots and Seattle Seahawks on Sept. 9. Check it out below.
The Cardinals are in denial, and the kids are suffering. Marvin Harrison Jr. has been miserable since arriving in Arizona. Trey McBride lashed out at Cardinals fans, or the lack thereof, and later retracted his criticism. We'll see what happens with rookie sensation Jeremiyah Love, but he's already hurt. In the daunting NFC West, Arizona will string its marriage of convenience with Jacoby Brissett along for one more season, and we'll see what happens in the 2027 NFL Draft.
The Falcons boast Bijan Robinson, Drake London, and Kyle Pitts Sr., an extremely talented group of offensive weapons. But with Michael Penix Jr. or Tua Tagovailoa at quarterback, it won't matter in the end. It's really sad to watch Penix Jr. and Tagovailoa's bodies betray them. It also really stinks to consider Atlanta wasting another talented roster in the quarterback wilderness and missing the playoffs for a ninth straight season.

Entertainment giant The Walt Disney Company (NYSE:DIS)'s shares are down by 9% over the past year and by 3.6% year-to-date. One aspect of the firm that Cramer regularly discusses is its cruise ship business. For instance, in August 2025, the CNBC TV host predicted that The Walt Disney Company (NYSE:DIS) would make "a lot of money" with its cruise ship business. As the firm's new CEO previously ran its cruise business, naturally, Cramer had a lot to say about The Walt Disney Company (NYSE:DIS) on August 17th:
"I have been a big believer in Josh [D'Amaro]. First, congratulations to Chris Berman, ESPN legend. . .it's a good example of what, they have this ESPN and it's been, somehow been an albatross. I think that's ridiculous. They have all this great film they do these great things. Now Josh ran the cruise ships, if they could double the cruise ships then the numbers would go up big. James Gorman put them in a terrific situation in the interim. Do I want to own Disney? We owned it, it's very hard to own that stock because it's kept down by the cohort. The cohort is so miserable that you keep thinking, I don't want to get ahead of myself here because oh man, everybody else is doing terribly."
The Walt Disney Company (NYSE:DIS) is in the unique position in the media and entertainment industry since it owns both legacy networks and has set up formidable digital platforms as well. Consequently, the debate for the firm also covers these facets. On the bullish front, The Walt Disney Company (NYSE:DIS)'s unified streaming platforms are scaling up nicely. During its fiscal third quarter, the firm streaming revenue grew by 11% to $5.53 billion, as it added that streaming achieved a 13% operating margin. Additionally, and as Cramer loves to talk about, the firm's Experiences division, which covers the cruise business, is also performing well. Experiences revenue jumped by 10% to a record $9.97 billion. As a cherry on top, Toy Story 5 also crossed $1 billion at the global box office and allowed The Walt Disney Company (NYSE:DIS) to fire on multiple cylinders.
Yet, overall revenue in Q2 missed ******* yst estimates and as the firm does not provide a streaming revenue breakdown, it is difficult to determine whether the growth was a result of price increases or subscriber growth. Additionally, while the Experiences division remains a standout, its revenue is not secular and leads to concerns of causing a downturn for the entire business should The Walt Disney Company (NYSE:DIS) come to rely on it too much. Not to mention, Experiences is also a capital intensive business which ends up affecting cash flows and inflation and discounting cutting operating margins to below 24% could lead to weakness. To sum it up, while The Walt Disney Company (NYSE:DIS) is creating tailwinds from streaming and experiences, cyclicality for parks and continued troubles with linear offerings can create headwinds. Considering this, perhaps Cramer believes that increase cruise revenu

With her name attached to two internet-breaking movies in 2026 — "The Devil Wears Prada 2" and "The Odyssey" — Anne Hathaway has been a regular on the red carpet and in conversation. But the attention should be nothing new to the star. She had a similarly big year back in 2013. Hathaway won a Best Supporting Actress Oscar for role in "Les Misérables," but when she walked the carpet ahead of the ceremony, she wore a pink satin Prada gown that got a lot of attention for all the wrong reasons. Between the dress' pale color, show-everything fabric, and the dart placement at the bust, Hathaway's, erm, nipples looked quite prominent and pointy. With the privilege of hindsight and time, Hathaway's dress has earned its proper place among the Oscars red carpet greats. But let's put a pin in the pink satin, shall we?

A few months later, on the first Monday in May, Hathaway walked the famous Met Gala steps, and the gown the actor wore that night flew a bit under the radar, but it's more than worth revisiting. That year's theme was "Punk: Chaos to Couture," and Hathaway fabulously nailed the vibe having draped her frame in an impossibly slinky black Valentino gown that read at once punk-rock and disco glam. Between the zig-zaggy shale-like print, the saucy sheer, and the dreamy feather details, this dress should've garnered way more headlines than the Prada "mishap." And we've been keeping our eye on Anne Hathaway's full beauty evolution via the photos, and this icy blond pixie cut was an especially fun high point.

Anne Hathaway has traded the long brunette hair she has worn throughout much of 2026 for a dramatically different look on the September cover of Vogue China, a short, choppy pixie that immediately recalls one of the biggest hair transformations of her career.
The 43-year-old actress appears with layered bangs and closely cropped sides in the new editorial, photographed by Norman Jean Roy. The styling changes throughout the shoot, with the short hair appearing tousled and spiky in some images before becoming considerably sleeker in others.
There is one important catch before declaring that Hathaway has actually chopped off her hair. Just Jared noted that the pixie is most likely a wig, and neither Hathaway nor Vogue China has publicly confirmed that she permanently cut her hair.
Even if the transformation exists only for the photoshoot, it gives Hathaway her shortest public hair look in roughly 13 years. The closest comparison comes from the pixie she wore through 2012 and 2013 after cutting her real hair for Fantine in Les Misérables.
The September cover pairs Hathaway's short hair with a white Louis Vuitton blazer trimmed in black. Other photographs take both the clothes and hair in different directions. Hathaway appears in a bright red dress with matching latex gloves, a purple blazer and a boxy black suit while the crop shifts from deliberately messy and windblown to smooth and tightly controlled.

Sean McDonough has called college football in some capacity since George H.W. Bush was in office. And after spending nearly four decades inside every major cathedral the country has to offer, he's come to the conclusion that Ole Miss is home to the worst broadcast booth in the sport.
"The booth is tiny," McDonough said in a recent appearance on The Brandon Walker College Football Show, explaining that Vaught-Hemingway Stadium's press box used to have more room before the athletic department reclaimed seats from it. "To the point where our stats guy has to be behind us, because it's not wide enough for myself, the spotter, Greg McElroy, Zach, our spotter, and me. There can't be a fourth person, because it's not wide enough."
Cramped quarters aren't even the worst of it. McDonough said the booth's angle relative to the field turns Ole Miss's frequent noon ET kickoffs into their own kind of miserable.
"You're a little to the left of the 50-yard line, but we have a lot of those noon Eastern starts there, which are 11 Central, and the sun is hitting you right in the face," he said. "I don't like to wear sunglasses on TV, because you look like you're doing a Hollywood shot, but you almost have to there when the game starts, because you're just getting blasted in the face. It's just a really uncomfortable place to do a game."
McDonough is entering his fourth straight season alongside McElroy on ESPN's No. 2 college football broadcast team,
with Katie George stepping in as their new sideline reporter in place of Molly McGrath, who moved to an NFL-focused role. That booth was voted No. 1 in Awful Announcing's 2025 college football announcer rankings, drawing the highest raw number of A grades of any crew in the poll, and McDonough was individually named the National Sportscaster of the Year.

A woman is going viral for saying she is considering leaving NYC after having an unpleasant experience while walking around the city. Originally posted by Izzy Graff (isabellegraff) on Instagram, the post features her gagging while showing her followers that her foot made direct contact with human feces while she was walking on the pavement.
To make matters worse, Graff said she had been wearing flip-flops that day. She can be heard retching in the video and telling viewers the experience left her feeling sick. She repeatedly said she felt like crying and wanted to be sick. The experience left her feeling so miserable that she said she would have to move out of NYC.
"Oh, I'm gonna throw up. Oh, I'm gonna throw up. Oh, I'm sick," Graff says in the clip. "I just, I'm like literally almost gonna cry. I just stepped, I'm wearing flip-flops, in human ***** . I really… I'm moving. Oh, this was it."
Graff's profile bio on the platform states that she is based in NYC. In many of her videos, she can be seen exploring new places in the city on foot.
The video has since been reposted and rapidly circulated across social media platforms. Her meltdown sparked a mixed reaction among viewers. While some sympathized with her for the unfortunate experience, others blamed her for wearing flip-flops.

BEREA ― Browns fans who are still missing Myles Garrett some two-and-a-half months since the June trade sent him to Los Angeles Rams, just know this. You have someone to commiserate with in Buffalo Bills left tackle Dion Dawkins.
Sort of. Maybe?
"I'm sad too," Dawkins said following the Aug. 20 joint practice with the Browns. "I'm sad too, man, because Myles is over there in LA and we got to see him. Week what, 5 or 6. So wish Myles was here."

Although the guy the Browns received from the Rams in exchange for the two-time NFL Defensive Player of the Year isn't exactly someone Dawkins would say he's thrilled to go against. Jared Verse, also a defensive end, is a 25-year-old who already has two Pro Bowl appearances and was 2024 NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year.

On Sunday, I felt flattened by Southampton's defeat at Watford.
When recording Goin' Home With Adam and Jo on the way back, Jo Tessem and I could hardly raise our spirits and delivered a thoroughly miserable half-hour.
Since then I have been reflecting on how the game unfolded at Vicarage Road and whether we were overreacting on Sunday.
Should we have said "well, it's only the first game" and "it's early in the season, they will get better"? As I write this, the answer is still no.
Saints have set very high standards under Tonda Eckert and we all expected that they would hit their stride early and swat Watford aside. It never happened.
