Sevilla sign defender Kjaer from Fenerbahce for €12.5m

Sevilla have confirmed the signing of Denmark international Simon Kjaer from Fenerbahce for €12.5million.

The centre-back has signed a four-year deal and is likely to be the replacement for Adil Rami after the France defender was sold to Marseille last month.

The 28-year-old joined Fenerbahce from Lille in June 2015 and made 55 Super Lig appearances over his two seasons in Istanbul.

Kjaer is the seventh major signing Sevilla have made in the transfer window, with Nolito, Jesus Navas, Luis Muriel, Sebastian Corchia, Guido Pizarro and Ever Banega having already joined Eduardo Berizzo s squad.

Kjaer was linked with a move to Premier League side Chelsea in January, with Fener issuing a statement denying the rumours and insisting the defender was happy …

Barcelona confirm thigh injury for Jordi Alba

Barcelona have revealed Jordi Alba suffered a right thigh injury in the 1-1 draw with Sevilla, though it is unclear how long the defender will be sidelined.

The left-back, who has started all three games under new coach Ronald Koeman, had to be substituted in the 75th minute of Sunday s LaLiga game at Camp Nou.

Following tests on Monday, Barca confirmed the issue for Alba, who will be unavailable for selection until otherwise noted .

The 31-year-old will be aided by the international break in his recovery, as he has not played for Spain since a 2-1 win over Romania in September 2019.

The tests carried out this morning have confirmed that Jordi Alba has a muscle injury in the hamstrings of his right leg, a statement from Barcelona read.

He is una…

I don’t care about speculation – Erik ten Hag

Erik ten Hag says he does not care about speculation regarding his future as Manchester United manager.

A promising first season saw Carabao Cup glory followed by finishing third in the Premier League and runners-up in the FA Cup, but things have gone off track this term.

United face a fight for Champions League qualification as the campaign enters the final straight, with the stunning 4-3 FA Cup quarter-final extra-time win against rivals Liverpool breathing new life into the team.

A Wembley semi against Coventry is the reward but that result did not stop talk about Ten Hag’s future during the international break as ambitious Ineos consider their options.

England boss Gareth Southgate was linked to the United job but said such talk was “completely di…

Berg slams UEFA in expulsion row as Legia plan appeal

Legia Warsaw will appeal against their UEFA Champions League disqualification, according to head coach Henning Berg.

UEFA expelled the Polish champions from the competition after the ineligible Bartosz Bereszynski appeared in the 2-0 second leg victory over Celtic on Wednesday in the third qualifying round.

That decision meant Celtic, who were beaten 6-1 on aggregate against Legia, were awarded a 3-0 default victory and will now face Slovenian side Maribor in the play-offs.

But former Rangers defender Berg has slammed UEFA s decision and promised to challenge the judgement.

We will appeal this, definitely. We will go as high as we can because we do not think this is the right decision, Berg told Sky Sports.

We are absolutely shocked at this deci…

Swansea City beat Burnley 1-0 on Saturday to reach the 40-point mark and now manager Garry Monk is aiming for a new club record.

Garry Monk is aiming for a new record Premier League points haul for Swansea City after they hit the magical 40 mark.

Swansea claimed a hard-fought 1-0 win at Burnley on Saturday, with Kieran Trippier s second-half own-goal ultimately proving decisive.

Victory saw Swansea reach 40 points for the season the figure long considered to be necessary to guarantee top-flight survival in the quickest time since their promotion in 2011.

And Monk is now urging his players to surpass 47 points  the haul they managed in their debut Premier League campaign.

40 points is the first port of call for any club in the league, partic…

Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater’s Updated Camouflage Menu Revealed

In the latest Metal Gear – Production Hotline, Konami provided a few new details on Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater. The development team showcased the trailer from the Xbox Games Showcase while reiterating new features like updated battle damage and the different control styles.

However, it also showcased the Camouflage menu, which has received some updates. The score of each camouflage option is listed, but their descriptions now have a dedicated description box under Snake. Players can also hit L1/LB and R1/RB to switch between Uniform and Face camouflage rather than backing out of either menu to select the other. Of course, there’s also a model viewer for examining Snake’s injuries and camouflage in closer detail.

PlayStation Portal is Getting a Cloud Streaming Beta

The PlayStation Portal has been a big success for Sony since its launch roughly a year ago – certainly a bigger success than even Sony itself was expecting – but the device has, nonetheless, also been on the receiving end of some rather fair criticism. One factor in particular that has invited backlash is its lack of cloud streaming capabilities, something you would assume would be a staple in a device such as this. It turns out, however, that Sony is finally in the process of rolling out that feature- bit by bit.

The company has announced that it has pushed a new system update for the PlayStation Portal that, along with making adjustments related to PlayStation Link and speaker audio volume, also finally adds cloud streaming capabilities, which means players can str…

Five candidates for the Everton job

Yesterday’s editorial turned out to be well-timed, as less than an hour after I wrote that Ronald Koeman should leave Everton, the Toffees sacked the Dutch boss.

The feeling around Merseyside was that the decision was almost inevitable following the recent poor run of results. Everton’s under-23 boss David Unsworth will fill the gap on a temporary basis while the clubs hierarchy decides on who will fill the role on a permanent basis.

The next incumbent has a big job on his hands. Koeman has left the Merseysiders 18th in the Premier League. Here are the five most likely candidates according to the bookies:

The Burnley boss has emerged as the early favourite for the job. Dyche has guided the Clarets to promotion on two occasions and helped establish t…

Pochettino praises versatile Wijnaldum and Hakimi ahead of Lille curtain-raiser

Mauricio Pochettino hailed Georginio Wijnaldum as a complete player ahead of the Trophee des Champions clash against Lille, while also commending Achraf Hakimi s versatility.

Paris Saint-Germain disappointed last season as they finished runners-up in Ligue 1 and were beaten home and away by Manchester City in the Champions League semi-finals.

However, the French giants have had a busy transfer window, bringing in Hakimi, Wijnaldum, Sergio Ramos and Gianluigi Donnarumma as they attempt to reassert their authority.

Speaking ahead of Sunday s final, Pochettino praised the former Liverpool man, who he feels will significantly strengthen their midfield.

We are very pleased to have him here. I think Georginio Wijnaldum can contribute going forward and also de…
