ESPNcricinfo staff28-Sep-2010

Ravi Bopara, the England allrounder, has followed in the footsteps of Kevin Pietersen by joining the Dolphins franchise in South Africa having missed out on both the main Ashes squad and the performance party that is travelling to Australia.It was decided between Bopara and the selectors that his winter would be better spent playing regular cricket, as he did last year with Auckland, rather than being sat with the reserve squad. He is set to play two four-day matches in the SuperSport series competition as well as the domestic one-day tournament which runs from October 29 to December 10.”We gave him the opportunity to play in South Africa, and he was happy to do that, as opposed to just going with the Performance squad,” said England’s national selector, Geoff Miller. “We talked it through with his coach [Paul Grayson at Essex] as well. South Africa to Australia is not a million miles away, so it’s an opportunity for him to get good middle practice and some good runs on the board.”Bopara will then hope to be included in England’s one-day squad for the limited-overs matches which follow the Ashes, consisting of two Twenty20 internationals and five one-dayers ahead of the World Cup.”We were looking for an experienced player who could add value,” Jesse Chellan, the KwaZulu-Natal chief executive, told Reuters. “Ravi was keen to play in South Africa and we knew he would want to prepare well ahead of the limited-overs leg of England’s tour to Australia.”However, Bopara is not a certainty for England’s future one-day plans having been dropped during the series against Pakistan after failing to make the most of his chances in the absence of Pietersen. He made an unbeaten 35 off 27 balls in the opening match at Chester-le-Street, but followed that with scores of 16 at Headingley and 7 at The Oval after being promoted to No. 4 in place of the ill Paul Collingwood. When Michael Yardy was ruled out of the final match it was Luke Wright who took the vacant role in the middle order.Pietersen, meanwhile, will shortly be heading to Durban for his two-week stint with the Dolphins as he continues to search for form ahead of the Ashes. Pietersen is due to play two first-class games between October 7 and 17.

According to a report from the Daily Star, Tottenham Hotspur are considering a move for Bayern Munich forward Serge Gnabry with 

The lowdown: Rise to stardom

The 26-year-old has undergone a bizarre rise to prominence on the elite European stage having struggled at Arsenal and West Brom before rediscovering form back in Germany.

[web_stories_embed url=”https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/web-stories/tottenham-newest-updates/” title=”Tottenham newest updates…” poster=”” width=”360″ height=”600″ align=”none”]

Gnabry only mustered 11 Premier League appearances during spells across the two English clubs and was sold to Werder Bremen for £4.5million in 2016 (Daily Mail).

Now a return to north London could be on the cards…

The latest: Conte ‘pushing’

As per the report from the Daily Star, Tottenham are considering an ‘ambitious swoop’ for the German international.

This comes as manager Antonio Conte is personally ‘pushing the club to table a cut-price deal’ for Gnabry given his contract situation, telling Spurs make a move.

Described as a ‘contract rebel’, Gnabry is set to become a free agent in 2023 (Transfermarkt) and Bayern are could be ‘willing to listen to offers’ for the man once hailed as ‘world class’ by Rio Ferdinand.

The report states that the Bundesliga giants ‘won’t be held to ransom’ by the 31-cap Germany ace, sparking interest from the Lilywhites.

The verdict: Make it happen

So far this season Gnabry has scored 16 times and provided 10 assists in 42 appearances across all competitions and would be a superb addition to Conte’s squad at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium as the Italian, alongside transfer chief Fabio Paratici, attempts to strengthen the N17 ranks.

Predominantly a right-winger, the versatile attacker can operate across the frontline and would provide an alternative to Son Heung-min, Dejan Kulusevski and the potentially outgoing Steven Bergwijn whilst also being capable of operating centrally.

Boasting a superb 7.34 average Sofascore rating this season, the Stuttgart-born star keeps illustrious company alongside Leroy Sane, Neymar and Mohamed Salah when using the Fbref comparison tool and would therefore be a top-level capture despite the previous links with elsewhere in north London.

Em final realizada no Estádio Couto Pereira, o Coritiba venceu o Rio Branco por 3 a 0, neste domingo, e conquistou a Taça Dionísio Filho do Campeonato Paranaense. A conquista garantiu ao time uma vaga na final do Estadual – caso vença a Taça Caio Júnior, o Coxa será campeão de forma direta.

O duelo iniciou de forma lenta e sem criatividade alguma. O Verdão até tinha a posse de bola, mas não conseguia aproximação e tabelas para infiltrar na bem postada zaga do Leão da Estradinha, que não tentava se aventurar no ataque.

Com 28, Marcos Moser fez jogada individual e tocou para Iago Dias, que arrematou cruzado e assustou, na primeira chance do jogo. Três minutos depois o atacante cruzou na medida para Guilherme Parede escorar nas mãos de Jhones. Alecsandro ainda arriscou de longe por cima do travessão.

A insistência, mesmo sem muita inspiração, deu certo. Alecsandro veio buscar a bola no meio-campo, tabelou com Parede e passou pra Júlio Rush, que achou Iago Dias dentro da área para dar um toque por cobertura no goleiro e o centroavante concluir de cabeça. Um bonito gol. 1×0.

A segunda etapa começou agitada. Iago Dias driblou dois e bateu de fora da área em cima do arqueiro. A resposta do time do litoral veio com Vandinho, que fez o pivô e rolou para Rodrigo Jesus, que chutou travado para fora.

Apesar do Rio Branco passar a gostar da partida, tocando mais a bola e chegando timidamente na parte ofensiva, quem marcou foi a equipe da casa. Com 15, após cobrança de escanteio, a bola sobrou para Alecsandro chutar mascado e Thalisson Kelven desviar de costas para ampliar. E não parou por aí. Oito minutos mais tarde, Júlio Rush deu lindo lançamento para Guilherme Parede dominar no peito, vencer a marcação mesmo caindo e tocar colocado na saída de Jhones.

A major Rangers transfer development has emerged on Ibrox gem Joe Aribo…

What’s the talk?

Reporter Tom Barclay has revealed that one Premier League club is not eyeing up a move for the Nigerian international midfielder.

Crystal Palace have been linked with a swoop for the Gers midfielder and Barclay has now allayed any fears in Glasgow that Aribo will be on his way to Selhurst Park.

He told GIVEMESPORT: “It makes sense and I can see why they are being linked with midfielders because of Gallagher leaving in the summer.

“But, from what I’m told, I’m not sure that is the case.”

Gio will be elated

This news will surely leave Gio van Bronckhorst feeling elated as Aribo is a key player for him in Glasgow and he will want him to stay at the club.

In the Premiership this season, the midfielder has eight goals and five assists in 32 outings as he has averaged a superb SofaScore rating of 7.10. This comes after he managed seven goals and four assists in the 2020/21 title-winning campaign for the Gers.

His form last term led to his former Charlton teammate Ezri Konsa heaping praise on him, saying: “Having Gerrard as his manager at Rangers, that has made him go up another level.

“Joe’s style is unique. When I was with him at Charlton he did remind me for a while of a left-footed Yaya Toure. But you don’t get a lot of midfielders like Joe, there aren’t many around.

“Like Toure, for a tall guy he’s got such great feet. But that languid style he’s got is actually fairly unique in the game.”

These comments highlight how rare of a talent Aribo is and why it would be difficult for van Bronckhorst to replace him with a similar player. As Konsa explained, the Nigerian’s blend of physical stature and technical ability makes him unplayable on his day as he has the strength to hold off defenders whilst also having the skill to produce quality in the final third.

His aforementioned statistics in the Scottish top-flight prove that he can put deliver on a regular basis at the top end of the pitch and that is why he is such a key player for the head coach. The Dutchman will not want to lose him and that is why he will be buzzing with Barclay’s claim that Palace are not eyeing him up as one of their top targets, as it stands.

Tamil Nadu opener Abhinav Mukund and Saurashtra quick bowler Jaidev Unadkat, both of whom are uncapped, have been named as replacements

ESPNcricinfo staff05-Oct-2010

India have omitted Gautam Gambhir and Ishant Sharma from the second Test in Bangalore following injuries to their right knees. The squad for that Test, announced hours after the win against Australia in Mohali, includes Tamil Nadu opener Abhinav Mukund and Saurashtra quick bowler Jaidev Unadkat, both of whom are uncapped, as replacements.Mukund, 20, has been a consistent performer in domestic first-class matches since his debut in late 2007. He has nine centuries in 29 matches, and an average of 55.88, and his career highlights include an unbeaten triple-century against Maharashtra in 2008 and a 257 against Hyderabad last season.Unadkat, 18, has been promoted despite not having played a Ranji Trophy match. He first came into the spotlight when his Kolkata Knight Riders bowling coach Wasim Akram endorsed his talent ahead of the 2010 IPL season. Though Unadkat did not make much of an impression in the IPL, he made the cut for India A’s tour of England. He impressed with a 13-wicket haul at Grace Road on first-class debut against West Indies A. He was included in the Rest of India squad for the Irani Trophy game against Mumbai that coincided with the first Test, and he returned figures of 4 for 41 in the first innings to put his name firmly in the selectors’ radar.The youngsters get their chance due to the injuries to two of India’s first-choice players. Ishant had been off the field for much of the first innings due to his injury but returned to play a crucial role in India’s heart-stopping win in the first Test in Mohali. On Monday, he took three quick top-order wickets to deflate Australia’s strong start and on Tuesday he stoutly hung on for a career-best 32 – and a match-turning 81-run stand for the ninth wicket with VVS Laxman.Gambhir, who scored 25 and 0 in the first Test, was hit in the knee while fielding at short leg on Monday when he was trying to take evasive action to save himself from a Michael Hussey sweep off Pragyan Ojha.

كشفت تقارير صحفية إسبانية، أن نادي مانشستر يونايتد، حدد بديل الدولي البرتغالي كريستيانو رونالدو الذي رحل بشكل رسمي عن النادي الإنجليزي.

مانشستر يونايتد أعلن رحيل كريستيانو رونالدو بشكل رسمي في يناير المقبل، بعد أن تم فسخ عقده بالتراضي.

صحيفة “سبورت” الإسبانية، أكدت بأن إريك تين هاج مدرب مانشستر يونايتد، حدد مواطنه الهولندي ممفيس ديباي، لاعب برشلونة ليحل بديلًا لـ كريستيانو رونالدو.

ديباي ينتهي عقده مع برشلونة في صيف 2023، لكنه خارج حسابات المدرب تشافي هيرنانديز، وحاول النادي الكتالوني التخلص منه في الصيف الماضي لكنه فشل في ذلك.

ديباي لعب من قبل مع مانشستر يونايتد، لكنه لم يتمكن من إثبات نفسه تحت قيادة هولندي آخر، وهو لويس فان جال مدربه الآن في منتخب الطواحين.

صاحب الـ28 عامًا هدفًا لـ يوفنتوس الإيطالي أيضًأ، الذي كان يريد ضمه في الصيف الماضي، لكن مطالب الهولندي لراتب 7 ملايين يورو في الموسم، ساهمت في فشل الصفقة.

O dia era 10 de fevereiro, em meio ao Carnaval. Mas o Botafogo chegou para o clássico contra o Flamengo, pela semifinal da Taça Guanabara, sem motivo algum para festas. Vinha da excruciante eliminação na Copa do Brasil, diante da modesta Aparecidense. O resultado contra o Rubro-Negro? Uma derrota, por 3 a 1, uma notável superioridade do rival e demissão de Felipe Conceição.

Agora, três semanas depois do tal jogo contra o Flamengo, o Botafogo chega de peito estufado, mais confiante e com a faca nos dentes para ratificar a boa fase e o processo de evolução sob o comando de Alberto Valentim.

O técnico foi contratado logo após o revés diante do Flamengo. Por isso, no novo duelo com o Fla, desta vez válido pela Taça Rio, Valentim tem o seu primeiro teste de ferro no Glorioso, uma vez que, com 100% de aproveitamento, venceu apenas equipes menores – Nova Iguaçu e Cabofriense.

Rodrigo Lindoso, Igor Rabello e João Paulo comentaram sobre o desafio deste sábado. E o trio convergiu: o Botafogo está engasgado com o Flamengo, mais motivado e com vontade de provar que a derrotada anterior ficou no passado.

Por falar nos três, apenas Rodrigo Lindoso não foi titular na partida no Raulino de Oliveira. De lá para cá, aliás, mudanças significativas ocorreram com Valentim. E em todos os setores, seja por lesão ou opção técnica.

No gol, Jefferson (lesionado até pouco tempo) deu lugar a Gatito Fernandéz. No setor defensivo, apenas o já citado Rabello e Marcelo permaneceram, uma vez que as laterais foram alteradas: Marcinho tomou a vaga de Arnaldo e, na esquerda, Moisés chegou como reforço e deixou Gilson no banco.

Há de se destacar que os dois laterais estão muito bem, obrigado. Já no meio-campo, Lindoso, antes preterido por Conceição e aproveitando a brecha da lesão de Matheus Fernandes, voltou ao time titular e tem feito um trio eficiente com João Paulo e Leo Valencia, que já estavam antes. No ataque, saíram Luiz Fernando e Brenner; entraram o jovem Ezequiel e Kieza, este autor de três gols nos últimos três jogos pelo clube da Estrela Solitária. O moral está em alta.

Stefano Benzi has dropped an update on the reported Tottenham Hotspur summer transfer target Stefan de Vrij.

What’s the talk?

In recent comments made on CMIT TV (via Sport Witness), the Italian journalist revealed that, following numerous reports linking De Vrij with a move to Spurs at the end of the season, Antonio Conte’s side are indeed interested in a deal for the Inter Milan centre-back, and are willing to offer €40m (£34m) for the 30-year-old’s services.

[snack-amp-story url= “https://www.footballfancast.com/web-stories/read-the-latest-spurs-news-transfer-rumours-gossip-levy-conte-paratici-thfc” title= “Read the latest Spurs news!”]

Concerning the north London side’s interest in the Netherlands international, Benzi said: “There is a very serious interest on the part of both [Manchester] City and Tottenham for De Vrij and they are willing to spend an important figure: €40m.”

Conte would love him

Considering how impressive De Vrij was in the heart of Conte’s Inter defence last season, it is clear to see why the 52-year-old would be keen to work with the defender once again at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Indeed, over his 32 Serie A appearances last term, the £31.5m-rated centre-back played a crucial role in the Nerazzurri’s title-winning campaign, helping his side keep 11 clean sheets, scoring one goal and registering one assist, as well as making an average of 1.3 interceptions, 0.9 tackles, 2.9 clearances and winning 3.3 duels – at a success rate of 60% – per game.

These returns saw the £116k-per-week Dutchman who former Lazio defender Mauricio dubbed a “monster” average an extremely impressive SofaScore match rating of 7.03, ranking him as Inter’s tenth-best player in the Italian top flight.

As such, with it being reported that Fabio Paratici will be prioritising the signing of a left-sided centre-back ahead of Tottenham’s 2022/23 campaign, it is easy to understand why the Premier League side are being linked with a move for De Vrij this summer.

Indeed, the 30-year-old boasts a great number of the traits Conte looks for in a defender, leading us to believe that, should Spurs’ sporting director manage to beat City to the £34m signing of the 55-time capped international this summer, it is an arrival that the 52-year-old manager would very much love.

AND in other news: Paratici set for Spurs catastrophe on “one-man wrecking machine”, Conte would be livid
