  • WHAT HAPPENED?

    Luiz has been desperately trying to leave the Italian club just a year after joining from Aston Villa. In a bid to force a move, the midfielder refused to report to the club's headquarters for training this week. The Serie A club are offended by Luiz's actions and have decided to take disciplinary action against the Brazilian. Comolli clarified that the situation was resolved after Luiz apologised to the club.

    THE BIGGER PICTURE

    The Brazilian made only 19 Serie A appearances for Juve last season and one appearance as a substitute in the Club World Cup this summer. Marred by injuries as soon as he joined the Italian club, the Brazilian is unable to find a new club. Premier League club Nottingham Forest have reportedly submitted a loan bid with an option to buy for the 26-year-old, but Juve's demand of €40 million (£34m/$46m) may be a hurdle for the English club.

    Comolli, who is aware of the midfielder's plight, empathised with him but asserted that he should apologise to his team-mates and staff. The general manager is very clear that no player is leaving until the club receives a worthy offer.

  • WHAT COMOLLI SAID

    When asked about Luiz going AWOL, Comolli said: "The player disrespected his team-mates. Everyone must respect the shirt they wear. He then apologised to everyone, players, coaches, and me.”

    WHAT NEXT FOR JUVENTUS?

    Luiz will be hoping for a quick resolution to his situation, with a Premier League return a possibility. Juve are also trying to offload Timothy Weah, who rejected a move to Nottingham Forest earlier this summer, but a move to Marseille has emerged as a possibility.

Dolphins overcome Khushdil-Shaheen scare for consolation win

Shaheen returned to bat despite hurting his knee but could not win the match for Lions

ESPNcricinfo staff22-Sep-2024Dolphins ensured they did not bow out of the Champions Cup without a win, as they beat Lions by 16 runs in the last league game of the tournament.With Lions needing 81 from five overs with three wickets in hand, a Dolphins win seemed a mere formality. But Khushdil Shah and Shaheen Shah Afridi, batting with an injured knee, threatened to pull off a heist. The pair hit seven sixes and two fours in the next four overs to reduce the equation to 23 needed from the final over. But Abbas Afridi held his nerve to give his side a consolation win.It must have been a no-brainer for Dolphins to bat after winning the toss; the teams batting first are yet to lose a game in the tournament. Dolphins lost Sahibzada Farhan in the sixth over but Muhammad Hurraira and Muhammad Akhlaq added 77 in 10.1 overs to set the platform.Hurraira scored 47 off 41 balls and Akhlaq 52 off 50. After the two fell in quick succession, Umar Amin took over. Despite Lions making regular breakthroughs, he found enough support from the lower middle order to steer Dolphins ahead.By the time Amin fell, for 75 in the 42nd over, Dolphins had 275 on the board. Even though they were all out in the last over, they had posted a challenging 326.In response, Abdullah Shafique and Rohail Nazir gave Lions a steady start of 78 in 13.3 overs. Nazir was the aggressor, scoring 62 in 70 balls.After 22 overs, Lions were well placed on 125 for 1 but Saud Shakeel dismissed Nazir and Omair Yousuf in his back-to-back overs. That derailed Lions’ chase.Lions needed 100 in the last ten overs with four wickets in hand. Then, a Faheem Ashraf delivery hit Shaheen on the left knee and he had to retire hurt. He returned at the fall of the next wicket, in the 45th over, but struggled with running between the wickets.That did not seem to matter as he and Khushdil dealt in boundaries. Shaheen hit Mir Hamza for back-to-back sixes in the 47th over. Khushdil went one better against Abbas in the next. But despite their best efforts, Lions fell short of their target.

da poker: Mesmo recusando propostas por Moscardo e Yuri Alberto nos últimos dias, o Corinthians não passou ileso à janela de transferências europeias. O período de contratação das principais ligas no Velho Continente encerrou na última sexta-feira (1º), com o Timão tendo negociado Murillo e Adson na reta final.No total, o clube alvinegro já ganhou R$ 196,87 milhões em vendas de ativos e mecanismos de solidariedade nesta temporada.

Nem mesmo o poderoso mercado do Oriente Médio foi tão letal ao Corinthians do que a ‘boa e velha’ Europa. O único atleta corintiano que deixou a equipe para a praça asiática neste ano foi Róger Guedes, vendido por R$ 19,5 milhões ao Al-Rayyan, do Qatar.

As vendas para o futebol europeu começaram no fim de junho, com o Zenit, da Rússia, fechando a contratação em definitivo do atacante Gustavo Mantuan, que esteve emprestado pelo Timão desde o meio do ano passado, por 2 milhões de euros (R$ 10,4 milhões).

Na semana seguinte, o time de São Petersburgo firmou negócio por Pedro no valor de 9 milhões de euros (R$ 46,7 milhões). O clube do Parque São Jorge recebeu a maior parte do valor à vista, mas até fevereiro de 2023, quando o atleta vai se apresentar ao time russo, tem mais duas parcelas para embolsar. Como tem 17 anos, a revelação corintiana só poderá se transferir para a Europa quando atingir a maioridade.

Os dois negócios aconteceram antes da abertura da janela de transferências da Europa, que aconteceu no dia 1º de setembro nos principais países do futebol europeu – com exceção da Inglaterra. Mas foi no fim de agosto, pouco antes do período encerrar, que outros dois jogadores deixaram o Corinthians para se transferir para o Velho Continente.

No dia 23, o Nantes, da França, anunciou a contratação do atacante Adson. O Timão recebeu 5 milhões de euros (R$ 27 milhões) pelo negócio. Já no dia 31, o zagueiro Murillo foi negociado com o Nottingham Forest, da Inglaterra, por 12 milhões de euros (R$ 64 milhões) – o valor pode chegar a 14 milhões de euros (R$ 74,6 milhões) se o defensor atingir algumas metas no seu primeiro ano na equipe inglesa.

E o Corinthians poderia ter recebido ainda mais dinheiro vendendo ativo para times europeus se não tivesse recusado propostas por Gabriel Moscardo e Yuri Alberto.

O volante recebeu uma oferta de R$ 21 milhões de euros (R$ 111,8 milhões) do Chelsea, da Inglaterra. O valor pode chegar até R$ 25 milhões de euros (R$ 133,1 milhões) com bonificações atreladas a cumprimento de metas. O Timão recusou a investida, que aconteceu na semana do encerramento da janela de transferências. Isso não significa que o negócio não pode acontecer. A ideia é que ele avance até o fim da temporada, com a promessa corintiana se transferindo para a equipe londrina no ano que vem.

Em relação a Yuri Alberto, a proposta foi de 18 milhões de euros por 60% dos direitos econômicos. Como divide o percentual com o Zenit, da Rússia, cada clube receberia 9 milhões de euros (R$ 47,9 milhões) e ficaria com 20% do ‘passe’ do centroavante. Os corintianos não aprovaram esse tipo de negócio. Para a direção do clube alvinegro qualquer conversa pelo centroavante só iniciará por 20 milhões de euros (R$ 106,5 milhões) pela ‘fatia’ que possui.

Não vender Moscardo e Yuri fez com que o Corinthians deixasse de ganhar 30 milhões de euros (R$ 159,8), quase o dobro do que a equipe do Parque São Jorge já arrecadou em 2023.

Além dos atletas que o Corinthians vendeu, também foram arrecadados mais R$ 12,67 milhões em mecanismos de solidariedade pelas transferências dos atacantes Gabriel Pereira para o Al-Rayyan (QAT) e Malcom para o Al-Hilal (SAU).

O lateral-esquerdo Carlos Augusto foi negociado pelo Monza para a Inter de Milão, ambos da Itália. Nesse caso, além do valor referente ao período de formação do atleta, o Timão tem direito a 40% da mais valia – quantia superior à que o clube alvinegro embolsou quando negociou o jogador.

No total, a equipe do Parque São Jorge tem direito a 5,85 milhões de euros na transação. Na cotação atual, as cifras estão em R$ 31,15 milhões. Porém, o contrato com a Internazionale inicialmente é por empréstimo com obrigação de compra no fim da temporada, em junho de 2024, período que o dinheiro vai cair na conta do time alvinegro.

Super Kings left to seek more batting support for Dhoni

Their position at the top of the points table hasn’t hidden their batting problems, and without a turnaround, things could get tougher as the league progresses

Sruthi Ravindranath in Bengaluru22-Apr-20193:13

I will never question what Dhoni does in the back end – CSK coach Fleming

On the eve of the game against Royal Challengers Bangalore on Sunday, MS Dhoni walked to the nets an hour after his team had begun training. He was seen practising his big hits – mostly against spinners – and smashing the ball all around the park. The 50-odd fans, who had come to catch a glimpse of the teams before the big day, cheered almost every time the ball was dispatched. Back spasms had kept Dhoni out of Super Kings’ previous match – against Sunrisers Hyderabad on Tuesday – in which they had been consigned to a heavy defeat, and his availability against Royal Challengers was not confirmed.On Sunday, in front of a full house, those rehearsals paid off. Dhoni turned up, brought out the fireworks and single-handedly almost took Super Kings to a win. He had barely any support from the rest of the batsmen in Super Kings’ chase of 162. Having walked in to bat in the sixth over, with the score at 28 for 4, Dhoni shared a 55-run stand with Ambati Rayudu for the fifth wicket, the highest for the side. Where the rest of the line-up struggled to score at a run-a-ball, Dhoni slammed 12 boundaries in total – four of them coming in 20th over.Super Kings’ form and consistency over the years can intimidate any T20 side. However, the team that has previously had several in-form batsmen and a number of finishers, this season have only one consistent performer – their captain Dhoni. Their dependence on him has exposed a gaping hole in batting the line-up, evident in the three losses this season.Super Kings’ approach to a chase has rather become a convention. One batsman assumes the role of an anchor, whose chief role is strike-rotation, especially in the event of an early collapse. The other batsmen play around this anchor. Often this season, Dhoni has been pushed to play that role. Rayudu, Kedar Jadhav and Suresh Raina – who all have the reputation of being match-winners – have one-odd good score each. While Super Kings have somehow gotten over the line in the first few games this season, the inconsistent form of the other batsmen could land them in a rather dicey situation towards the end of the league stage.Dhoni is the team’s highest run-getter (314 runs at an average of 104.66) this season and has five 30-plus scores batting at No. 4 or lower. He’s 11th on the list of highest run-getters this season and the next best Super Kings batsman is Raina, at No. 27, with 207 runs in 10 innings. These numbers should give some indication about the side’s batting struggles.Super Kings’ two matches against Rajasthan Royals again illustrate Dhoni’s impact. Batting first on a dewy night in Chennai, Dhoni produced a vintage innings to save the team from an embarrassing collapse. His unbeaten 75 took Super Kings from 88 for 4 in the 14th over to 175 for 5, and the innings included hard-run, risky ones and twos, and a big flourish at the end with four sixes in the last over, including three off the final three balls of the innings.In the away fixture, Super Kings were chasing but their innings followed a similar script. They were 24 for 4 after the Powerplay, with another 128 needed off 14 overs. Dhoni scored no boundaries off the first nine balls he faced before launching into a counter-attack. Rayudu imbibed some of that aggression in the pair’s 95-run partnership and Dhoni’s 43-ball 58 was crucial to a dramatic last-ball win.Do these trends and numbers indicate that the Super Kings’ line-up is overdependent on Dhoni?”We’ve got a really talented batting order, which has been consistent throughout the years,” coach Stephen Fleming said after the one-run defeat to Royal Challengers. “On paper, you can see the strength but we’ve not been able to string partnerships or individual scores this year. What we’re bordering on is being a little reckless, trying to find that form. We were being a little bit reckless, and that just comes from guys trying to find form and do the job. But what’s happening is we’re relying too heavily on Dhoni and Rayudu to patch things up and we won’t win the competition if that continues.”We’re happy to be crossing the line, but we’d like to see some form creeping back into the top order.”Super Kings did not have these struggles last year, when they found different match-winners with the bat. Rayudu and Watson enjoyed top form, making 602 and 555 runs respectively, while Raina had four half-centuries, and struck a crucial 24-ball 32 in the final. This year, the side’s bowling unit, especially spinners, seem to have found top gear, but the top order is yet to find its feet ten games into the tournament. Could the sluggish home pitches, which have been forcing them to play more cautiously, be one of the reasons affecting them?”It can, and we’ve been very conscious of that,” Fleming said. “We played on Chennai tracks which were difficult to find form on. It was tough to keep the momentum. So, we train well on the grounds that we’ve gone to, to see if they’re faster or more friendly batting conditions. But it’s just getting a little bit of form back. You can’t try too hard, so it’s very hard to try and deliver messages when on the one hand the game, we’ve got to be positive and aggressive and take calculated risks.”Maybe we’re just missing the 1% in between, so we’re looking to hit our way into form rather than just work our way into form, and we’re getting great examples from Dhoni and those partnerships in the middle, but it’s taking a little bit of time to sink in. So we’ll go back to Chennai and it’s going to be a grind, but if that’s what it’s going to take, then we have to grit our teeth and do it.”

Mushfiqur, Mominul to play for Bangladesh A in Pakistan

Bangladesh Test squad to arrive four days ahead of schedule in Pakistan

Bangladesh in turmoil: how will cricket be impacted?

Six players from the Test squad arrived in Pakistan on Saturday as part of the Bangladesh A side. Mushfiqur and Mominul are among them, as they are set to play the first four-day game in Islamabad from August 13.”The emphasis was on picking our best players for this version,” chief selector Gazi Ashraf Hossain said. “This is a well-balanced squad. The likes of Mushfiqur (Rahim), Mominul (Haque) and Shakib (Al Hasan) have played 216 matches combined and there is no substitute for that kind of experience. Taijul (Islam) and Miraz (Mehidy Hasan) have been leading the spin department for a long time and have over 350 wickets between them. We also expect Shanto (Najmul Hossain), Litton ( Das) and the other batsmen to step up because to be competitive against Pakistan, we will need a team effort.”Taskin last played a Test in June 2023, in the series against Afghanistan at home. He was part of the T20 World Cup and also played in the Lanka Premier League, but Ashraf said Bangladesh were keen on easing Taskin back into the longer format.”We have selected five pacers mindful of the fact that Taskin Ahmed will only play the second Test. He hasn’t bowled in a Test since June last year and we have decided to include him in the A Team for the second four-dayer against Pakistan A to get him into the rhythm for longer version matches.Taskin Ahmed last played a Test in June 2023•AFP/Getty Images

“A couple of the pacers may join the A-team for the one-day matches, therefore we needed backups. Our attack has variety with bowlers who can bowl fast and also swing the ball and I am looking forward to seeing them perform against world-class batsmen.”Ashraf was also glad about Bangladesh getting extra days to train in Pakistan.”Pakistan are very tough opponents, especially in their home front and it will be a challenging tour for us,” Ashraf said. “It is good that we will get additional time to prepare in Lahore. Also, some players who are in Pakistan already with the Bangladesh A side, will join the national team for the Test series. Their experience of the conditions should come in handy.”The first Test begins on August 21 in Rawalpindi followed by the second in Karachi on August 30. The squad will train at the Gaddafi Stadium from August 14 to 16 before traveling to Islamabad on August 17 ahead of the first Test.Bangladesh Test squad: Najmul Hossain Shanto (Capt), Mahmudul Hasan Joy, Zakir Hasan, Shadman Islam, Mominul Haque, Mushfiqur Rahim, Shakib Al Hasan, Litton Das, Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Taijul Islam, Nayeem Hasan, Nahid Rana, Shoriful Islam, Hasan Mahmud, Taskin Ahmed, Khaled Ahmed

    Brighton have identified England U21 midfielder as a top target according to The Sun, and feel that they can tempt Elliott with a £40m move to the Amex Stadium with the offer of a starring role to play in the Seagulls' attractive brand of football. Fabian Hurzeler's side reportedly believe that Elliott can take them to a new level, be that from a central role or out wide.

    THE BIGGER PICTURE

    Elliott is a boyhood Liverpool fan, but has spoken out previously about his desire to play more regular first-team football, though he previously hoped that would be at Anfield. With the recent arrival of Florian Wirtz, Elliott is likely to fall further down the Reds' pecking order and may reluctantly decide that his best option is to move and kick-start his career elsewhere. Nottingham Forest have also been reported to hold an interest, but it is thought that Elliott would prefer a move to Brighton due to their attacking style of play.

  • DID YOU KNOW?

    Elliott became the youngest-ever player to start a game for Liverpool at the time back in September 2019, aged 16 years and 174 days. Having joined the Reds from Fulham in a high-profile transfer for such a young player that summer, Elliott was touted for big things and saw his influence within the squad gradually increase under Jurgen Klopp. He has made 147 appearances for Liverpool in all competitions, but just 28 in 2024/25 after 53 the previous season.

    WHAT NEXT FOR ELLIOTT AND BRIGHTON?

    Elliott has a big decision to make this summer about where his long-term future lies, particularly with the 2026 World Cup on the horizon as he aims to force himself into Thomas Tuchel's plans. Brighton may have to deal with the departure of Joao Pedro this summer, and will be hoping, as ever, to find their next young gems in the transfer market.

Ranji round-up: Services and Karnataka win thrillers; Dube-led Mumbai crush Bengal

The comeback

Saurashtra, the defending champions, pulled off a miraculous win in Solapur to keep their knockout hopes alive.Down and out at 69 for 8 in their second innings, with their lead just 112, they were revived by Jaydev Unadkat, the captain, and Chirag Jani, one of their premier allrounders, who made 45 and 43 respectively.The ninth-wicket pair added 93 to help Saurashtra set Maharashtra a target of 213, which proved 48 too many. Left-arm spinner Parth Bhut sent Maharashtra on a tailspin by picking up 7 for 44, his fourth five-for in first-class cricket.Seven Maharashtra batters got off to starts, but none managed more than Taranjitsingh Dhillon’s 28 at No. 7. The defeat sees Maharashtra languishing in the second half of the Group A table, while Saurashtra are closing in on the top three.Related

The thrillers

Having come into their fifth-round fixture without a win, Services were bundled out for 108 on the opening morning under swinging conditions in Lahli. It’s from here that they orchestrated an epic comeback against Haryana that culminated in a sensational one-run victory.This was only the second time in Ranji history that a team had managed to secure victory by one run. Andhra was the only other team to pull off this feat, when they beat Tamil Nadu by this margin, at Salem in 1974-75.Pulkit Narang, the offspinner who has recently been part of India A, led Services’ turnaround. His three wickets were instrumental in Services pocketing a five-run first innings lead. Rajat Paliwal, the captain, then led the way with 86 in the second innings to set Haryana a target of 146, which if achieved would have propelled them to the top of the standings.Haryana made a good fist of the target, with openers Ankit Kumar and Harshal Patel adding 51. Then from 81 for 1, they sensationally collapsed; losing 6 for 11 as Narang ran through the batting line-up to pick up 5 for 55 as Services clinched a famous win.In Surat, Manish Pandey played a clutch knock to help Karnataka clinch a one-wicket thriller against Railways.Chasing 226, the inexperienced top order, sans Mayank Agarwal and Devdutt Padikkal, caved in and were at 99 for 6. Stand-in captain Nikin Jose registered a pair. But the lower order rallied with Pandey remaining unbeaten on 67.Pandey aside, there was a crucial contribution from pacer Vijayakumar Vyshak, who made 38. But when he was dismissed, Karnataka still needed 29 runs with just two wickets in hand.Pandey found support from Vidwath Kaverappa and Vasuki Koushik to clinch an unlikely win. Vyshak had also picked up a five-for with the ball in Railways’ second innings to help limit Railways’ lead, which proved to be crucial.The win helped Karnataka jump to second in Group C, level on points with Tamil Nadu. However, TN are toppers by virtue of a better quotient and two bonus points to Karnataka’s zero.Mohit Avasthi holds the ball up after bagging a seven-for•Cricket Association of Bengal

The upset

Gujarat, the early pace-setters of the season, have stumbled big time. After winning their first two games, they’ve now lost two on the bounce, in addition to a drawn game due to the elements. This leaves them precariously placed, and outside the top three, in Group C going into the second half of the league phase.Their latest defeat was against the Wriddhiman Saha-led Tripura, a team that had only won nine Ranji games in all since they came into existence in 1985-86. However, this season alone, they’ve added two more wins and are third in the pool, which gives them a chance of pushing for the knockouts.Tripura’s win was all the more special as they rallied around in the second innings after conceding a 26-run lead, courtesy an outstanding effort from Manisankar Murasingh who scored 72 in their 343.Gujarat weren’t really in the chase of 318, slumping to 64 for 5 from where there was no turnaround. Parvez Sultan, the left-arm spinner, ended with a match haul of 10 for 116.

The victory march

Mumbai recorded their fourth win in five games as they thumped Bengal by an innings and four runs at Eden Gardens. The turnaround was led by Shivam Dube, the captain, and debutant Suryansh Shedge, who added 144 for the fifth wicket on the opening day. From 87 for 4, they managed 412 in the first innings.Bengal were bundled out for 199 and 209, with only Anustup Majumdar (first innings) and Abishek Porel (second innings) standing tall with the bat. Fast bowler Mohit Awasthi recorded figures of 7 for 52 as Bengal were skittled in under 60 overs in the second innings.
