Real Madrid received multiple offers for Federico Valverde from Premier League clubs, all estimated to be in the region of €90 million. But, the club simply rejected all of them since they consider the midfielder an untouchable part of their squad.
Los Blancos had to part ways with Casemiro after an iconic run, where the midfielder won every trophy available to the club on multiple occasions. The Brazilian ended up joining Manchester United in a deal worth over £70 million.
Federico Valverde considered vital part of the club
🚨🥇| Real Madrid received offers of €90M for Fede Valverde from the Premier League but the answer they received was that Fede is UNTOUCHABLE. @tgm46pic.twitter.com/Luy9STyAuB
The Uruguayan is one of the most hardworking and dedicated players that are there in the squad. He is only 24, and has a very bright future ahead of him. Even though he plays best in a central position, he has been used on the right side of the front three consisting of Vinicius Jr on the left and Karim Benzema through the middle.
Valverde was signed as a youngster from Penarol in 2016, and was eventually loaned out to Deportivo. After returning in 2018, he has become a key part of the team, and has now made over 150 appearances for Los Blancos.
Aurelien Tchouameni and Eduardo Camavinga are expected to inherit Real Madrid’s midfield from Toni Kroos and Luka Modric, and Federico Valverde will be the third man to complete the trio in the coming years.
Callum Hudson-Odoi is expected to join Bayer Leverkusen on a loan deal for the 2022/23 season. The winger has had very limited opportunities under Thomas Tuchel, and as a result, has been seeking options for a move to get more game time.
Despite offers from as many as 20 different clubs the Englishman will be joining the Bundesliga side for the coming season. The deal is expected to go through by the end of the week, trimming Chelsea’s squad for the coming season.
Callum Hudson-Odoi to join Bayer Leverkusen on loan deal
The decision to join Leverkusen over all other teams has been taken carefully by the player and his entourage. The German side finished third in the table behind Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund last season, and will be playing Champions League football.
This will give Callum Hudson-Odoi the exposure needed to get his confidence back. He has struggled to get regular game time since his ACL injury, and could finally be set for a renewed run when he moves out on loan.
Leverkusen have created an exciting attacking team, with the likes of Moussa Diaby, Patrik Schick, Adam Hlozek and Florian Wirtz. The addition of the Chelsea academy graduate will add a whole new element to the attack that could allow him to prosper and get his best form back.
The Premier League is just three fixtures old and there is a good chance that Liverpool’s title ambitions are all but over. In short, it has been a dreadful start for the Reds who are now in the lap of the gods with regards to the league’s table-topping teams dropping the necessary points that will bring them back into the equation to win the league.
As things stand, the latest Premier League betting odds for the outright market price the Reds at 7/1 to win the title which even Liverpool fans would be quick to admit, is quite generous given the state that the club looks to be in. It goes without saying but this price could quite easily skyrocket should Liverpool continue to flounder in the early season.
The feeling, however, is that after draws with Fulham and Crystal Palace, which was then followed up by a defeat to Manchester United, and on top of the lengthy injury list at Anfield, the Reds will ultimately battle to find the momentum they need in order to mount a serious title charge. Put another way, the club should prepare for an indifferent run of results.
No wins in their opening three for the first time in a decade…

How much time has Jurgen Klopp’s incredible Liverpool reign bought him?
With this in mind, the question has to be how long Jurgen Klopp will be given by the Liverpool board should this run of form continue. To some, this may seem like a predicament that is somewhat premature but even if Klopp rides this poor start out and steadies the ship sooner rather than later, the question remains: how much credit does Klopp have in the bank at Liverpool?
A considerable amount has to be the answer when you consider that the German has delivered every major domestic trophy a manager can whilst in the Anfield dugout.
LIVERPOOL ARE CHAMPIONS!
The 30-year wait is over!
For the first time in the club’s history, Liverpool have won the Premier League title! 🏆 pic.twitter.com/DOe98vOOCa

This essentially means that the owners will have their hands tied should they ever want to make a change as the fan revolt would be significant. Indeed, Klopp is revered by the Anfield faithful who it should be said, holds a telling amount of power at the club, as the climb down from Fenway Sports Group over the ill-fated European Super League proves.
There does, of course, also come a time when the patience of a fanbase eventually wanes but in Liverpool’s case, the club would have to be stuck in a relegation fight for any resentment against Klopp to be audible from the terraces. Now, as badly as Liverpool has started their 2022/2023 campaign, the chances of the club slipping into a fight for their Premier League lives is relatively low.
All of this essentially means that the threshold for any mutiny against Klopp remains high which in turn should ensure that the owners abide by the mood music at Anfield.
Indeed, the German’s trophy-laden spell with the Reds has, for now, earned him the right to see out the storms that will pass over Anfield. Make no mistake though, the clouds are beginning to gather over this famous old stadium and we’ll soon see if Klopp is made to walk alone should they not abate.
Newcastle United have agreed a €70 million deal with Real Sociedad for Alexander Isak. This will be the club record signing for the Magpies, and is the first time that they have flexed their financial muscles following their takeover.
The Swede is one of the most important players for the Spanish side, and has scored 33 goals in 105 appearances for them in La Liga. In the past, he has attracted interest from some of the top clubs in the world, but a transfer never materialised. He is now set to move to the Premier League for a new challenge.
Alexander Isak to join Newcastle United
Real Sociedad sources confirm an agreement imminent with Newcastle for Alexander Isak, advanced today by @diariovasco. Club record fee – with final details now discussed. 🚨⚪️⚫️ #NUFC
Long term deal and also add-ons structure, main points discussed to get the deal done. pic.twitter.com/5bls9RUiTC
Only the final details need to be discussed between the two parties, such as the structure of the add-ons. Personal terms have already been agreed between Alexander Isak and Newcastle United, and it seems only a matter of time before the deal is made official.
Eddie Howe has already received a boost in attack with the arrival of Joao Pedro from Watford. After a £30 million deal was agreed for the 20-year-old, the arrival of Isak will shake things up strongly.
Nick Pope, Sven Botman and Matt Target have joined the club to bolster the defensive positions as well. And it now remains to be seen whether Newcastle United can challenge for European spots following their careful recruitment this transfer window.
The wait is over Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt’s great film Brahmastra Part 1: Shiva has confirmed the official release date. The new trailer is like holding the tone of the movie that many have called the answer to India’s fantasy epics just like Lord of the Rings.
The three minutes of the trailer is not a waste for anyone as it contains many visually-stunning moments with such outstanding VFX shots and as an indication of the film’s grand scale. The film mainly introduces us to the astroverse that set up a universe of superheroes who can safeguard the weapons that possess the power of elements, and among all of them, the Brahmastra is the senior one.
Brahmastra: Trailer
The trailer starts with the heavy voice of Amitabh Bachchan sir who is telling us how all the five elements have held the powers stored in ‘Astras’ means weapons since the ancient era and that starts from the tale of the God of all Astras- the Brahmastra. We have seen Nandi astra which has sop a truck with the load. After that, we have seen a fabulous entry of Mouni Roy from the wave of water. We have also seen the other astras, and the story is based on the god of astras ‘Brahmastera’.
The trailer has continued with Ranbir Kapoor as Shiva who has seen in a cool mood, partying where he meets Alia Bhatt. He is totally unknown about the fact that he is somehow connected with the Brahmastra. He meets his love interest Isha and we have seen the romance between the two until we and Isha become aware of the secret of Shiva that fire cannot burn him.
Shiva starts to realize that ancient powers are at play in this world from two sides that face off in the battle to get their hands on the Brahmastra. The trailer shows glimpses of the goof guts like Amitabh Bachchan and Nagarjuna and Mouni Rot as the villain. The character of Amitabh Bachchan tells Shiva the story of how he becomes connected to this world of astras and after that Shiva gets the purpose of his life as the saviors had meant to be.
Shiva has realized some ancient powers, and their protectors, among all of this there is darkness trying to everything into the ashes, they have determined to get Brahmastra. After knowing that he is the ‘Agneyastra’, he starts to fight against the evil powers. In the end, we have seen Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt trying to catch each other hands.
The strange thing is we have seen a man standing with the ‘Trishul’ in the ring of fire, but we have not seen the face. However, Ranbir Kapoor holds the Astra and smashes it on the ground.
Alia Bhatt also shared a video message along with her fans where she spoke about her excitement for the trailer launch. The film is in 3D and there is a big-screen spectacle so some of the impacts are just lost while we can watch the trailer on our devices.
All the fans show a positive response to the trailer. Someone commented:” VFX are outstanding nicer saw this type of VFX in any Indian cinema.” On speaking of the trailer release the director Ayan Mukherji said, “making the beginning of a new cinematic universe, the Astraverse, I believe Brahmastra is the kind of film that the country would feel really proud of. It touches on our roots; celebrates our rich culture and takes us forward with our technology. The film is proudly Indian and Imaginative and bringing together some of Pan-India’s most renowned names was a dream come true!”
Brahmastra: Release Date
Brahmastra has set to hit on 9th September only on theatre. Apart from Hindi, the movie also will release in four other languages like Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, and Malayalam. The filmmaker SS Rajamouli has taken the responsibility to represent the movie in all four languages, and Chiranjeevi has given his voice for the Telugu trailer.

Since the release on Christmas Day, Bridgerton has been firmly sat in the TV top spot in multiple regions across the world and most notable in the US. The series to finally unseat the period drama was Fate: The Winx Saga on the 23rd of January. It also must be noted that the original’s reign at the top lasted eight days just before being unseated by Bridgerton.
Fate: The Winx Saga(Season 2): Controversy
It is The franchise is as popular as the Winx Club, naturally, any live-action adaptation also will come under some level of scrutiny.
It is natural that a franchise like the Winx Club, a live-action adaptation will come normally under a certain level of scrutiny. The biggest controversy about the show was its casting decisions. The character of Musa was designed by inspiring Chinese-American actress Lucy Lui. But it was not given to an actress’s Asian descent, and instead of that Emily Applebaum was cast.
There also some issues arise with the character of Flora which has been dropped in favor of Eliot Salt’s character with Terra Harvey. The potential debut f Flora in the second season also has been teased by Salt.
It is assumed that these controversies are enough to cancel the series.
Fate: The Winx Saga(Season 2): New Cast
We are very happy to confirm as there are at least three new characters being introduced in season 2 and in July 2021. There is some confirmation of such characters.
1. Flora– She is an Earth fairy like her cousin Terra. She has an easy-going nature but still hides a dark secret. A Hispanic female is cast in this role.
2. Sebastian– We will also see this character in the second season. We will see that Sebastian will be building his way to the Netflix series. He is a brilliant student having questionable morals.
3. Grey- There is no reference to Grey in the animated series. It is assumed that this character will be a transgender male described as a secret specialist. In season 2 he will fall for Aisha that he got with his charismatic charms.
It seems that the additional casting is still ongoing into August 2021. It seems that MovieExtras is noted that they are looking for identical twins to feature in season 2. After speaking with a fan account, they just confirm that was not detected and such identical twins in their source material. In IMDb lists, Jayden Revri appears to play the role of Devin in the second season.
Fate: The Winx Saga(Season 2): Production Status

It is expected that season 2 also contains 8 episodes rising from the 6 seen in season 1.
On 20th July 2021, we also got confirmation that also shooting had started along with the new cast members. The shooting for season 2 is also taking place again in County Wicklow, Ireland. We also know that some filming was just conducted in Avoca, Ireland.

FateWinxNews on Twitter is also done with an excellent on of archiving pictures from the cast and team during the production.
The filming also ended in November 2022 according to top posts on some actors’ social media posts. We also can get an update from the producer Brian Young on 22nd January 2022:
“We are still working on it, and will be for a while!
I know it seems like it takes forever, but a shoe like #FateTheWinxSaga has a complicated and intense post-production process. Luckily, we have got an amazing team of editors, VFX artists, composers, music supervisors, sound designers, colorists, and more to watch us through it. And rest assured, everyone is working their butts off every single day to make sure we are giving the best version of the show we can.
The good news is, that it’s all going smoothly and we are so excited for you to see it when it’s ready. And trust me., the moment I’m allowed to share ANYthing I will!!!”

It can take a significant amount of time before the series makes a return to Netflix. It seems that the filming of the series also took place in September 2019 just before the ending after a few months on 13th December 2019. It seems that it took thirteen months before the series made its debut.
Also given the production schedule outlined above the best guess is that it will be out in mid-to-late 2022.
We should give thanks to Geeked Week, the series is due to come back in fall 2022.
Fate: The Winx Saga (Season 2): Expectations
Bloom Become Stronger
It has been seen that in the dramatic fights with the Burned Ones, Bloom could sprout her wings and become the first fairy who was done this. For many years. As it has known that the use of her wings has tapped her into more strong magic than old magic not even the staff of Alfea College can tap it.
After getting new powers Bloom will only become stronger. The origin of her new power is the Dragon Flame, and if she learns to control it then she will be able to remove the Burned Ones for the good.
It is assumed that it takes some time for Bloom to control her powers like the first time she activated her wings but soon collapsed from the exhaustion of utilizing them.
Sprout Wings of More Fairies
Bloom is the first one with the sprout wings but it does not take more time for the other fairies to learn the control the same. It is still unclear that as an extremely powerful fairy why her wings activated but if she can find the key to the ability then definitely other fairies will be able to learn the ancient magic.
Alfea College was taken over by Rosalind
It is informed that Rosalind will kill Farah Dowling with the help of the Queen of Solaria. After the news of her returning as a headmistress, it is clear that she will utilize her authority to push Bloom to discover more of her powers. During the looming war hanging over Alfea, Rosalind seems to use this opportunity to push all the students to become stronger and maybe turn them into soldiers who will fight in the coming war.
Fate the Winx Saga(Season 2): Release Date
The second season of Fate: The Winx Saga confirms to release on 16th September 2022.

As per the sources, we’ll probably see more adverts on your iPhone. Apple intends to roll out adverts that will show up when you look for restaurants or neighboring retailers inside more apps, including Maps, Books, and Podcasts, according to Mark Gurman of Bloomberg.
iPhone: Showing ads in Apps
These advertisements are not what you might expect. In other words, these ads are in no way comparable to those you might see on some Android phones. Using the same advertising strategy, Apple has been promoting particular apps in the App Store for a while.

The App Store displays an app right at the top of the results when you search for, say, a photo editing app. This is a promotion for the app, whose creator paid Apple to feature it.
As of right now, more Apple apps will use this advertising strategy, according to Gurman. Soon, the Maps, Books, or Podcasts apps’ search results may include promoted entities. Gurman claims that adverts in books and podcast applications will probably let publishers market their books and content producers’ work. A search bar is available on both apps for finding material.
However, Maps, Books, and Podcasts are all three of the apps ad-free. Apple may want to monetize app searches in the same way it does the App Store. Also Read: The Weather and Maps apps on Apple place Crimea under Ukraine
App Store and Advertisement
There will probably be some ad placement-related adjustments made to the App Store. According to Gurman, Apple may soon place adverts on the Today tab and the App Store’s app download sites. His information supports earlier stories from Apple Insider and 9to5Mac.

According to one of the stories, the advertisement will show up on the Today tab as a larger card. Apple will indicate that the app is an advertisement by placing the word “Ad” beneath its name. According to the article, adverts would show up under the “You Might Also Like” area on specific app pages.
Apple may see an opening for an ad-supported Apple TV+ subscription if commercials spread to additional apps. Gurman emphasized that a more affordable Apple TV+ subscription tier would put the company’s streaming offer on the level with competitors.
According to reports, Netflix and Disney+ are developing a basic subscription tier with the most affordable price and commercials. While Netflix and Apple TV+ in India offer an ad-free experience starting at Rs 149 and Rs 99 per month, respectively, Disney+ Hotstar offers both a paid and a free version.
Apple’s Advertising Game Plan
Apple hasn’t officially acknowledged anything yet, but based on its recent moves in the advertising space, we can make some assumptions about what the company might do.
Implementation of ATT
Apple purportedly introduced the App Tracking Transparency (ATT) feature in 2021 to protect user privacy. It enables Apple users to prevent third-party apps from gathering information about them when they browse the web, depriving advertisers of the data they need to target Apple users with relevant advertisements.
Over 75% of Apple customers, according to the sources, have enabled ATT, costing social media companies billions of dollars.

Introducing Ads into the Space Created by ATT
There are reasons to believe that ATT may not be as helpful to customers. However, because the function was created to operate outside of the Apple ecosystem, it does not protect you while inside it, even though Apple definitely benefits from it. To choose which ads to deliver, Apple uses data from its other services and the Apple account, according to Gurman.
In reality, Apple does let you turn off personalized advertising (go to Settings > Privacy & Security > Apple Advertising). This should aid in protecting your data even within the Apple environment. Even though 78% of iOS 15 users have also turned off ad personalization, Apple still knows their provider’s identification, device kind, and what they learn.
