Mexico star Hirving "Chucky" Lozano has swapped San Diego FC for the LA Galaxy -Credit:Yair Gonzalez/Jam Media/Getty Images Hirving “Chucky” Lozano has finally found a new home, having been deemed surplus to requirements at San Diego FC, with his last appearance coming in November. The Mexican international, 31, joined San Diego ahead of its first MLS season in the summer of 2024, officially transferring from Dutch side PSV in January 2025. He wound up making 34 appearances, scoring 11 goals, and adding nine assists across all competitions as the MLS debutants won the Western Conference before losing the Conference Finals to the Vancouver Whitecaps. Unfortunately, rumors began to swirl of issues between Lozano and head coach Mikey Varas, as well as between the former Napoli star and teammates, after he was taken off during a game against the Houston Dynamo in October. Relegated to the bench for the remainder of the season, he wound up scoring two goals during the Playoffs, as...

Adam Schefter predicts how Browns QB situation may go in 2026

ESPN NFL insider Adam Schefter gave a guess for what may happen with the Cleveland Browns quarterback battle. To Schefter, Cleveland could turn to veteran Deshaun Watson early in the season before giving second-year quarterback Shedeur Sanders a go later on in the season. MORNING WIN: The Browns quarterback competition is a waste of time "It won't surprise me if it's Watson early on and Shedeur for the bulk of the season," Schefter said on Thursday's Pat McAfee Show . Obviously, that would put Cleveland on yet another quarterback roller coaster and wouldn't inspire much hope unless Sanders settles in as a starter once he gets a turn. However, we're sure Browns fans just want one guy they can count on under center for once instead of the continual Dawg Pound musical chairs at quarterback. Some NSFW language on the screen below. "It won't surprise me if it's Watson early on and Shedeur for the bulk of the season." @AdamSchefter gives insi...

Dodgers Prioritized Familiarity With Deadline Catching Acquisitions

Image
The Los Angeles Dodgers brought catchers Ben Rortvedt and Hunter Feduccia back to the organization at the trade deadline, and it isn’t a coincidence that both have experience with the team. “It’s part of the reason we acquired them,” Dodgers bench coach Danny Lehmann said . “Having both of them be familiar with the system and how we go about things, it’s way easier, especially in a time like this.” The Dodgers had a busier deadline than expected after Dalton Rushing suffered a “slight tear” in his UCL, potentially knocking him out for the remainder of the season. They knew exactly what they had to do, though, and prioritized familiarity with the pitching staff. “Both guys have had familiarity with our staff,” general manager Brandon Gomes said . “It was really important to kind of come in and fit right into the clubhouse.” Sep 21, 2024; Los Angeles, California, USA; Los Angeles Dodgers catcher Hunter Feduccia (67) removes his facemask between plays against the Colorado Rockies during...

BKFC 94 video: Yoel Romero, Darren Till lock in for awkward 3-minute faceoff

Three whole minutes – and then some. That's how long Darren Till and Yoel Romero stared at each other during their BKFC 94 news conference faceoff Tuesday at AO Arena in Manchester, United Kingdom. The former UFC middleweight title challengers will go fist-to-face, rather than eye-to-eye, Sept. 26 in the same venue when they battle in bareknuckle boxing. On Tuesday, they got their first look at one another as opponents – a really, really good look. In what may have been the longest faceoff in combat sports history, Till and Romero locked eyes despite the attempts of promotion officials to obstruct their views and conclude the event. Had they not, Till and Romero might still be standing there at the time of this publication. You can watch in the video above. Till (1-0) made his bareknuckle and BKFC debut in May when he defeated former Bellator fighter Aaron Chalmers by second-round TKO. Between his UFC departure in 2023 and his bareknuckle debut, Till went 3-0 in boxing (two exhibit...

Two German teams hold strong interest in Arsenal youngster

Image
Two German teams hold strong interest in Arsenal youngster Ethan Nwaneri spent the second half of last season on loan at Olympique Marseille and experienced a mixed spell in France. However, the move helped him mature, and he could now leave Arsenal during this summer’s transfer window. The attacker could still struggle to secure regular playing time at the Emirates because of the quality of players currently in the Arsenal squad. Although he is regarded as one of the best talents at the club, he lacks the experience of some of the players competing for the same position. Nwaneri attracts Bundesliga interest This situation could lead Arsenal to consider allowing Nwaneri to leave, with RB Leipzig and Borussia Dortmund both interested in signing him and taking him to the Bundesliga. According to Fussball Daten , both clubs view Nwaneri as an ideal addition to their squads this summer and would make efforts to bring him into their teams. They believe his talent and potential could make h...

Vikings top pick already working his way into first team reps

The Vikings are going to need a healthy Caleb Banks to play a large part in their defense in 2026. They drafted the former Florida Gator in the first round, and with that comes certain expectations. Add on the fact that the Vikings moved on from key veterans like Harrison Phillips, Javon Hargrave, and Jonathan Allen over the last year, it creates more need for new players to step. Early on in camp, it seems Banks is poised to be one of those players that steps up. In his training camp notebook, ESPN's Kevin Seifert shared that Banks was working with the first-team defense alongside two notable names. Seifert shared, "Rookie defensive lineman Caleb Banks, the No. 18 pick of the 2026 draft, opened camp working with the second team but on Friday worked almost exclusively with the first team alongside nose tackle Levi Drake Rodriguez and defensive end Jalen Redmond." Banks playing alongside Levi Drake Rodriguez and Jalen Redmond makes for a dynamic trio upfront in the trenc...
