Graeme Smith, the South Africa captain, is expected to be fit for the return series against Australia, which starts on February 26. While the fracture Smith sustained in his left hand during the third Test in Sydney has healed, he has also put off surgery on his tennis elbow – in his right hand – until after the series.”He is fine,” Arthur told the . “He has had his second injection [in the elbow], which is a good thing. The fracture in his hand has mended perfectly, and we are hoping he will be having a hit in about two weeks. It is even better than expected.”Smith said he would be available for selection for the Cape Cobras for next weekend’s Standard Bank Pro20 semi-finals, should they qualify for the knock-out stage. “The medical team have given me the go ahead to resume playing,” said Smith. “They are very happy with my hand injury and they feel they can manage my elbow through the home series against Australia. I will get back into the nets next week and hopefully the Cobras will make it through to the last four.”Smith had managed to play on during the Tests in Australia by getting the tear in his elbow injected with his blood. He was already slated to fly home after the three-Test contest when he suffered a broken knuckle off a Mitchell Johnson delivery during his first innings in Sydney. Smith did not open in the second innings of the Test, but bravely walked out at No. 11 as South Africa – who had already sealed the series 2-0 – tried to save the game, which he nearly did with Makhaya Ntini.”It still remains to be seen once he [Smith] starts playing but the good thing is that the fracture has mended perfectly,” said Arthur. “It is really excellent to have him fit. We weren’t sure how it was all going to come through but at this stage, touch wood, it all seems to be very good.”Australia, who are in danger of losing their No. 1 spot in the ICC Test rankings, have named their 14-man squad for the three Tests, and have included three uncapped players in Phillip Hughes, Bryce McGain and Marcus North.

An injury expert has now said that Richarlison could be out for Everton for longer than initially expected.

The Lowdown: Richarlison injured

Richarlison has missed the Goodison Park faithful’s last two games after picking up an injury in their 3-1 win at home to Burnley in the Premier League a couple of weeks ago.

It is not known exactly how long he will be out for, but the Merseyside club will be keeping a close eye on his progress with another international break set to come in October.

The Latest: Injury expert on Richarlison

Speaking to Football Insider, Ben Dinnery, who runs the Premier Injuries website and has a background in medicine and data analysis, has now said that Richarlison could be held back until after the international break has finished, despite mentions of him only being out for ‘two or three weeks’:

“It was an impact injury after a tackle from James Tarkowski.

“It was Richarlison’s ankle but the actual issue is knee related. It looks like there might have been a hyperextension of the knee.

“He did continue for a bit but couldn’t complete the game. Benitez came out and said he has been involved in some elements of training but doesn’t feel comfortable.

“He wasn’t able to complete those sessions and there was a decision on the eve of the Aston Villa game to take him out of the limelight.

“There is no definitive timeline in terms of what we are looking at but in around two or three weeks has been mentioned at this point.

“What I would say is we are heading into an international break so even if he is 50/50 it could be he is held back. Just to make sure he is in a good place.”

The Verdict: Potentially big blow

It would certainly be a big blow for Rafa Benitez and the Toffees if Richarlison was forced to sit on the touchlines until after the international break.

In the last two matches that he has missed, the Blues have lost both of them, slumping to a miserable 3-0 defeat away at Aston Villa before being knocked out 10-9 on penalties to Championship team Queens Park Rangers after a 2-2 draw at home (Transfermarkt).

Nonetheless, Benitez will want the Brazil international back in his squad as soon as possible as he can help him pick up some much-needed results.

A diretoria do São Paulo tenta preservar seus garotos lapidados em Cotia e, nesta semana, acertou contrato de três de suas promessas. O atacante Fabinho, de 17 anos, o lateral-direito Lucas Sena e o atacante Paulinho, do time sub-17, tiveram novos vínculos assinados com o clube.

O movimento acontece em meio a um “boom” na base são-paulina. Só este ano, o clube acertou as vendas do zagueiro Lyanco, para o Torino (ITA), e dos atacantes David Neres, para o Ajax (HOL), e de Luiz Araújo, para o Lille (FRA) – todos com formação concluída em Cotia. No total, as vendas já renderam cerca de R$ 105 milhões aos cofres do clube, valor que pode aumentar condicionado a bônus por performance.

Aos 17 anos (fará 18 no próximo mês de novembro), o atacante Fabinho chegou ao São Paulo em 2013. Ele acertou um contrato de três anos com o clube. Participa do time sub-19, já que não tem mais idade para o sub-17.

Já as outras duas promessas tiveram o primeiro contrato profissional assinado nesta semana, válido agora por quatro anos (até 2021). Eles são do sub-17. Paulinho, de 16 anos, tem se destacado no Campeonato Paulista substituindo Brenner, promovido ao elenco profissional pelo técnico Rogério Ceni, já tendo estreado. Paulinho tem nove gols na competição, sendo cinco nas últimas duas partidas, quando assumiu a titularidade do ex-companheiro de base.

Já Lucas Sena, também com 16 anos, é figura constante nas convocações da Seleção Brasileira Sub-17. No início do ano, esteve no Torneio de Montaigu, na França. Depois, apareceu em listas de atletas chamados para período de treinos na Granja Comary, como parte da preparação para o Mundial da categoria, este ano, na Índia. No elenco do São Paulo, já jogou como capitão da equipe.

Neste sábado, pela última rodada do Campeonato Paulista Sub-17, o São Paulo enfrentará o Audax. Com 32 pontos, o Tricolor é líder do Grupo 6, com dez vitórias, dois empates e uma derrota. Com 61 gols, tem o segundo ataque mais positivo da competição, com apenas um gol a menos do que o Palmeiras. Atrás, sofreu 11.

Com Ceni, o São Paulo deu chance a diversos garotos da base. Araruna, Júnior Tavares, Militão, Shaylon e Brenner foram promovidos este ano pelo técnico, que ainda chamou outros garotos para treinamento. E a intenção do clube é continuar dando espaço aos jovens, mesmo com a saída do técnico. Essa foi uma das condições sugeridas a Dorival Júnior, contratado para substituir Ceni também por ter histórico de trabalhar bem com a base.

Southampton fans were far from happy as their B side lost 3-2 to Birmingham City on Monday despite being 2-0 up.

For the Saints’ senior side, it has not been the best start to the season at all. Eight games in, they have won just one match during 90 minutes, an 8-0 victory over Newport County in the League Cup, and they are without a victory after six Premier League matches (Sky Sports).

Things are not going to better for the club’s development side, either. They were without a win in five matches in their top flight, and were well in with a chance of changing that form against Birmingham. However, despite a two-goal lead, they were unable to hold on, and eventually lost 3-2. As a result, they remain rooted to the bottom of the table.

Southampton’s official Twitter account shared the result, and it attracted plenty of attention from the supporters. They took to the social media platform below.

Depois da primeira vitória fora de casa neste Campeonato Brasileiro (goleada sobre o Vitória por 4 a 1 na noite da última quarta-feira, em Salvador), o Vasco desembarcou na tarde desta quinta-feira no aeroporto do Galeão com festa. Principalmente para os jogadores que são crias das categorias de base do Cruz-Maltino, que teve papel fundamental para o resultado conquistado longe de São Januário.

Na partida, Thalles, Paulo Vitor e Guilherme Costa fizeram gols. Paulinho deu uma assistência em poucos minutos em campo. No saguão do aeroporto, justamente eles foram os mais assediados. Não apenas por torcedores do Vasco, que pararam para pedir selfies com as promessas cruz-maltinas. E sim também por pessoas que torcem para outras equipes, como Flamengo e Corinthians, mostrando clima de paz que deve prevalecer no futebol.

Autor de um golaço diante do Vitória, Paulo Vitor conversou com jornalistas na chegada e brincou dizendo que já assistiu ao seu gol mais de 20 vezes. O jogador do Vasco ainda comentou sobre as oportunidades que os meninos da Colina estão recebendo pelo técnico Milton Mendes nesta temporada e desejou boa sorte ao volante Douglas, vendido pelo Vasco ao Manchester City nesta semana e que deve viajar para a Inglaterra nos próximos dias para realizar exames médicos.

– Todos estão de parabéns pelo desempenho do Vasco em Salvador. No momento do gol passa uma história na minha cabeça, tudo que já fiz. Já vi meu gol umas 20 vezes (risos). Tenho que agradecer a Deus e ao professor pela oportunidade. Estamos muito felizes pelo momento de todos da mesma geração da base chegando ao profissional. Mostra a força do Vasco. Fico muito feliz também pelo Douglas. Temos proximidade. Irá muito bem na Europa – destacou.

Paulinho também se destacou em Salvador. Ficou apenas quatro minutos em campo, mas suficiente para se tornar o jogador mais jovem a atuar pelo Vasco no século XXI. Até então a marca tinha Philippe Coutinho como dono, que estreou no Cruz-Maltino em 2009, com 17 anos e sete dias – Paulinho atuou com 16 anos, 11 meses e 27 dias. Ele comentou sobre a oportunidade no desembarque.

– Fiquei feliz pela oportunidade. O atleta mais jovem no Vasco. É esperar e continuar o trabalho aqui no clube. Agradecer a todos e ao professor Milton Mendes. Estou muito feliz por tudo – destacou o jogador, que chegou a dar uma assistência e garantir um carinho a mais por parte do comandante da equipe e dos torcedores com autógrafos e fotografias no aeroporto.

O Vasco volta a treinar na manhã desta sexta-feira, em São Januário. O próximo compromisso no Campeonato Brasileiro é no domingo, às 16h, diante do Santos, no Nilton Santos. A partida, vale lembrar, será disputada com portões fechados.

لم يجد مهاجم الفريق الأول لكرة القدم الجديد بنادي مانشستر سيتي، إيرلينج هالاند، وصف سوى “مجنون” ليطلقه على مديره الفني، بيب جوارديولا، مع بداية مشواره مع بطل الدوري الإنجليزي.

وانضم هالاند إلى مانشستر سيتي في الميركاتو الصيفي الحالي مقابل 75 مليون يورو من بوروسيا دورتموند، بعد منافسة شرسة للغاية مع ريال مدريد، بايرن ميونخ، باريس سان جيرمان وبرشلونة.

وتحدث النرويجي الدولي عن مدربه في تصريحات نقلتها صحيفة “موندو ديبورتيفو” الكتالونية، وقال: “جوارديولا مجنون بعض الشيء، أحب ذلك، سيكون الأمر ممتعًا”.

وأضاف: “لم أكن مع الفريق سوى أسبوع، لذا لا يمكنني قول الكثير، لكنني كنت أتدرب جيدًا وأنا مستعد لما هو قادم”.

وعن ثنائيته مع جريليش: “أمر جيد أن نتواصل بشكل رائع في المباريات، يجب أن يتحسن الأمر مع مرور الأيام والتدريبات، لكن ما حدث أمام بايرن ميونخ كان جيدًا، الأجواء في الفريق إيجابية”.

Ricky Ponting, the Australia captain, has decided to skip the 2009 season of the IPL because of his country’s packed international schedule

Ricky Ponting, the Australia captain, has decided to skip the 2009 season of the IPL because of his country’s packed international schedule. Ponting felt he wouldn’t be able to give his all for his country if he used his two-week break from national duty to play for the Kolkata Knight Riders.”My country comes first and there was no way I could give my all for Australia if I used the only two-week break we have to go and play in India,” Ponting wrote in his column in the . “I have been talking with my team, the Kolkata Knight Riders, for a month or two now and in the end my only choice was to withdraw from the 2009 competition, but I will most certainly be back for 2010 when I hope to be able to make a much greater contribution. The franchise has been fantastic about the whole thing and I want to thank them for their understanding.”Australia are currently in South Africa where they are scheduled to play three Tests, two Twenty20 internationals and five ODIs. This series comes soon after the end of the Australian summer, during which the team played home Test and ODI series against South Africa and New Zealand. The Australian selectors wanted Ponting to take a break during the five-ODI series against New Zealand but he returned to the squad after Australia conceded a 2-0 lead to the visitors.”As everybody is aware, I could not really take a break through the Australian summer,” Ponting wrote. “However, I have to say that I had been talking with my manager about not playing the IPL well before any issues came up about me having a break, or, as it turned out, not having a break, during the one-day series against New Zealand.”Part of the reason I decided to withdraw from the IPL is that Twenty20 is such a physically demanding game and you have to be at your best to play the game and I want to be at my best for the [Twenty20] World Cup. “After the tour of South Africa ends in April, Australia are scheduled to play an ODI series against Pakistan, following which is the two-week gap when Australia’s players are expected to be available for the IPL. However, the itinerary is packed after the break with the ICC World Twenty20 in England followed by the Ashes, ODIs in England, a bilateral series in India, a Test series against Pakistan and the Australian summer.Joy Bhattacharya, Kolkata’s team director, confirmed the franchise will seek a replacement. “We are looking for a replacement and are bargaining hard with two or three players already. We are looking for a batsman who will be an able replacement,” he told Cricinfo. “The rules for a replacement says that if for any reason a player is unavailable for the entire season, only then a player from the auction list [the original auction list of 110-odd] can be picked.”Ponting is the third high-profile Australian to miss the 2009 season of the IPL after fast bowler Mitchell Johnson and vice-captain Michael Clarke, both of whom did not take part in the inaugural season either.

أكد مرتضى منصور رئيس مجلس إدارة نادي الزمالك، أن جماهير القلعة البيضاء هي البطل الحقيقي، مشيرًا إلى أنه سيصرف 10 مليون جنيه للاعبين من مستحقاتهم غدًا.

وفاز الزمالك على فيوتشر بهدف نظيف بتوقيع لاعبه محمود حمدي الونش، في المباراة التي جمعت الفريقين على استاد الأهلي وي السلام ضمن منافسات الجولة السابعة والعشرون من المسابقة المحلية.

وقال مرتضى منصور في تصريحات تلفزيونية عبر فضائية “الزمالك”: “البطل الحقيقي هي جماهير نادي الزمالك، تقف خلف فريقها معدن الناس يظهر في الوقت الصعب”.

وتابع: “ومعدن جمهور الزمالك عظيم جدًا وجماهير وافية تظهر في الأوقات الصعبة”.

وعن مواجهة بيراميدز قال: “بيراميدز فريق كبير ومحترم، وحال فوزنا سنكون على مقربة من حصد بطولة الدوري بنسبة 30%.”.

وأكمل: “لدينا فريق كبير ولاعبين على أعلى مستوى فرز أول، وغدًا سنصرف للاعبين 10 مليون جنية من مستحقاتهم، بجانب المكافأت وسيتبقى لهم 8 مليون جنية”.

ووتطرق للحديث عن مصطفى فتحي لاعب الزمالك السابق والتعاون السعودي الحالي: “الذي يقول أن مصطفى فتحي سينضم للنادي للأهلي، نادي التعاون لم يدفع للزمالك باقي مستحقات الصفقة فكيف سينضم للأهلي؟!”.

وعن أشرف بن شرقي قال: “أشرف بن شرقي لو يفكر في العودة للزمالك، فباب الزمالك مفتوح ولو لم يعود فنتمنى له التوفيق”.

وأضاف: “الذي يخرج من الشركة المتحدة هو الخاسر، الشركة هي من تدفع أجور الاستديوهات ورواتب لموظفين والمذيعين”.

وأختتم: “غدًا سأصدر بيان له خاص بالجمعية العمومية والجماهير، هذا البيان ليس علاقة بأشرف بن شرقي، هو لم يترك النادي وهرب”.

Segundo informações publicadas pelo site “G1” na manhã deste sábado, o juiz Mario Olinto Filho, que estava de plantão em São Januário durante o clássico entre Vasco e Flamengo ocorrido no último dia 8, determinou que o 17ª DP (São Cristóvão) abrisse inquérito para apurar as responsabilidades pelos atos de violência e vandalismo na ocasião (um torcedor cruz-maltino acabou morrendo nos arredores do estádio). Será avaliado, inclusive, se o presidente Eurico Miranda pode ser responsabilizado.

Um dos pontos levantados refere-se à segurança, e revista, dos torcedores dentro do estádio. De acordo com o artigo 14 do Estatuto do Torcedor, é de responsabilidade do clube mandante (no caso, o Vasco) e não da Polícia Militar, como chegou a ser dito pelo clube. De acordo com a publicação, o juiz elaborou uma ata registrando as tentativas de invasão do campo e os inúmeros objetos atirados pelos torcedores. Há a informação de que os torcedores tentaram invadir a delegacia instalada em São Januário e chegaram a quebrar o vidro da dependência.

A publicação ainda afirma que investigadores querem saber se há ligação entre o Vasco e os torcedores violentos. Um dos pontos foi a detenção do torcedor Rodrigo Granja Coutinho dos Santos, de 41 anos, em 21 de junho, no interior do estádio Nilton Santos. O promotor Cláudio Varella foi ouvido pela publicação e afirmou que ele está proibido pelo Juizado do Torcedor de frequentar estádios por se envolver em confrontos com outros torcedores. Entretanto, foi liberado após advogados do Cruz-Maltino afirmarem que ele era funcionário do Vasco.

Ainda ao “G1”, o Vasco informou que o jogo “só aconteceu porque o clube cumpriu as exigências dos órgãos públicos e, por isso, teve aprovada a realização do evento” e que “prestará as informações à medida que for comunicado judicialmente”. Sobre o torcedor Rodrigo Granja, o clube disse que verificaria a questão. Vale lembrar que São Januário está interditado e o Vasco receberá o Santos neste domingo no Nilton Santos com portões fechados. Na manhã de segunda-feira, haverá julgamento no STJD pelas confusões e o Cruz-Maltino pode perder até 25 mandos de campo.

Celtic right-back Josip Juranovic has been ruled out for a couple of weeks with a hamstring injury, Alison Conroy reports.

The Lowdown: Juranovic under Postecoglou

Juranovic was one of 12 summer signings by the Hoops, costing £2.7m from Legia Warsaw. Ange Postecoglou believed that the 26-year-old would add ‘important quality’ to the Celtic squad, and he has used Juranovic at right-back and left-back in recent weeks.

He turned out as a right midfielder for his previous employers at the beginning of the season and suffered a knock in Sunday’s 1-1 draw with Dundee United.

The Latest: Sidelined

Postecoglou was talking to the media on Wednesday ahead of Celtic’s Europa League clash with Bayer Leverkusen.

He admitted that Juranovic will be out for “a couple of weeks†with a hamstring injury, with Conroy relaying the news via Twitter.

[web_stories_embed url=”https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/web-stories/celtic-updates-14/” title=”Celtic updates!!” poster=”” width=”360″ height=”600″ align=”none”]

The Verdict: Another one…

Celtic’s injury list has been mounting up recently, and Juranovic is the latest man to be ruled out.

However, it could have been worse timing for Postecoglou and the Hoops, with international action set to take centre stage following this weekend’s clash with Aberdeen.

Celtic’s next game after the trip to Pittodrie isn’t until October 16, so hopefully a number of absentees will be in line for a return by then.
