Diego Costa to join Wolves for 2022/23 after work permit appeal accepted

0

Wolves are preparing the next steps in order to sign Diego Costa on a free transfer. The player was expected to complete his move several days ago. A medical had been scheduled in England for the striker, but he was not allowed a work permit by the government. 

The club appealed the decision, and have had their request to overturn it accepted. Now, they are working to complete the transfer of the former Spain international in the coming days. The player will travel to England today to discuss the final details of the contract before to achieve a full agreement. 

Diego Costa to join Wolves after work permit request approved 

Costa has been a free agent since leaving Athletico Paranaense in Brazil back in January. He will be offered a one-year contract by the Midlands club, in order to cover the season.

Following injuries to both Raul Jimenez and new signing Sasa Kalajdzic on his debut, the club has been left short-staffed in attack. And as a result, they have identified the former Chelsea striker as a short-term solution since Kalajdzic will be out for a while given his ACL injury. 

The medical for Diego Costa is scheduled on Thursday, and after that, it will be only a matter of time before the transfer is made official by the club.

Goodbye: The new trailer unveils the Current situation in the society of father and his Modern Kids 

0

Amitabh Bachchan and Rashmika Mandana are set to share the screen for the first time with the film, ‘Goodbye‘ The new film follows about such dysfunctional family drama that has given some hits about comedy. The trailer is three minutes long and has provided a sneak peek about the tale from where Neena Gupta will appear as the wife of Amitabh Bachchan had died. His promises sound very tragic, and the movie is dealing with that same way of comedy. 

We have got some sort of similarity between Pagglait and Ramprasad Ki Tehrvi, the movie also introduces us to many characters who hold the dialogues that sound quite inappropriate if it has been presented independently but have made such complete sense while told into the text on their surroundings. 

Goodbye

In the new trailer, the story depicts the Bhalla family children who are trying to come to terms with the death of their mother getting played by Neena Gupta. The onscreen husband of Neena Gupta wishes to cremate her in such a traditional manner along with his daughter arise questions about t the archaic practices as she has refused to embrace the logic just behind putting cotton in the nose of her mother, tying her toes and other things with the entire family, and the friends set to indulge. 

She has seen no differences in her brothers. One says he has tucked in Dubai, ordering a feast of butter chicken, another just refused to shave his head for the final rituals. The father becomes disappointed due to the attitude of his kids. 

Pavla Gulati has spoken,” It is directed by Vikas Behl and produced by Ekta Kapoor. It is a family entertainer and has lots of drama and comedy. The family is about ongoing via something. Amit Trivedi provided the music. I am dying for its trailer to be out. I am attempting comedy for its trailer to be out. I am attempting comedy for the first time. I was so nervous just before doing it, but after I once entered it, I thoroughly enjoyed myself.”

Now, the current friction between the father-daughter become played by Big B and Rashmika is looking like the central premise now. The film Goodbye has masked the Hindi debut of Rashmika Mandana. The last time we have seen the actress in the most appreciated Telugu film with Allu Arjun. Now, the film hot turned out to be a pan-India hit that has made Rashmika become a known face in the country. Rashmila is also set to come with the Hindi movies Mission Manju with Sidharth Malhotra, and Animal featuring Ranbir Kapoor. 

Goodbye has been made under the production by Balaji Motion Pictures, Saraswati Pvt. Ltd, Viraj Sawant and Vikas Bahl. The film got written and also directed by Vikas Bahl. Bahl is very popular for his film  Super 30, Queen, and Shaandaar.

Miralem Pjanic has officially joined UAE Pro League club Sharjah FC on a two-year deal with the option for a third year. The player was tempted by the lucrative offer from the club, and has now made the move from Barcelona to the Middle East.

The Bosnian spent the last season on loan at Turkish club Besiktas, and will now take on a new challenge. His spell at Barcelona has not gone according to plan, with his move from Juventus resulting in only 30 appearances for the Spanish side.

Sharjah FC sign Miralem Pjanic on a free transfer 

“FC Barcelona and Miralem Pjanić have reached an agreement to release the player from the contract binding the player to the club until the end of the 2023/24 season.

“The club publicly expresses its gratitude to the player for his professionalism, dedication and commitment and for always adapting his contract to the club’s situations and needs. It wishes him every success and fortune in the future,” the La Liga club wrote on their official website.

As a result, the 32-year-old’s move is on a free transfer, following the termination of his contract. He was not included in Xavi’s plans for the seasons due to the options he has, and will now be able to play regular minutes in a new league. 

A PC update for Red Dead Redemption 2 adds official FSR 2.0 support

0

Even though Red Dead Redemption 2 is almost 4 years old, it is still one of the most visually stunning games available. Red Dead Redemption 2 is also still very demanding when playing on PC at its highest settings.

Having said that, the game now officially supports FidelityFX Super Resolution 2.0, so anyone looking to get more RDR2 performance out of their systems has a new official choice.

RDR2 already had support for the open-source FSR 2.0 thanks to a fan mod, but if you don’t want to tinker with the game’s source code, you can now just download an official patch. Additionally, RDR2 formally supports NVIDIA’s rival DLSS technology.

About the Version 1.31 Patch Notes

The section of the Red Dead Redemption 2 version 1.31 patch notes devoted to new PC functionality is available here. Additionally, the game will support Reflex and have better temporal anti-aliasing.

  • Reflex has been implemented to reduce lag on the gamepad only. People who use a keyboard and mouse to play do not need to worry about this.
  • Improvements have been made to Temporal Anti-Aliasing (TAA)
  • AMD FidelityX Super Resolution (FSR) 2.0 has been implemented

The following new features and content have also been added to consoles and PC:

  • Players can now launch Telegrams from both the Player Menu and the Camp
  • A link to the credits has been added to the Pause Menu
  • Three new Hardcore Co-op Telegrams have been added to Red Dead Online:
  • In Bad Faith (1-4 Players) – Capture the 7th Generation members and bring them to Skelding’s man
  • Strong Medicine (1-4 Players) – Steal the 7th Generation supplies and bring them to Skelding’s man
  • Sow and Reap (1-4 Players) – Find the 7th Generation leader, bring him to Skelding’s man

Red Dead Online’s three existing Telegram Missions have one new location added to them:

  • A One-Horse Deal
  • Rich Pickings
  • Outrider

Red Dead Online’s two existing Showdown Modes now have four more locations:

  • Hostile Territory
  • Sport of Kings

Red Dead Redemption 2 and Rockstar

Since Red Dead Online support is expected to end soon and it appears unlikely that RDR2 will ever be released on a next-generation console, it is encouraging to see that at least some support is still being provided.

The typical assortment of bug patches and tiny adjustments are also included in Red Dead Redemption 2 version 1.31; if you’re interested in learning more, you can read the full, unedited patch notes right here. Currently accessible on PC, Xbox One, and PS4, Red Dead Redemption 2 is also playable on Xbox Series X/S and PS5 thanks to backward compatibility.

Mauro Icardi to be loaned out to Galatasaray 2022/23

0

Paris Saint-Germain have agreed a deal with Turkish side Galatasaray to loan out Mauro Icardi for the season. The two clubs have signed the contracts for the move to go through, and it will be made official very soon. 

The French side will cover the majority of the Argentine’s wages as he spends the season out on loan. He joins the long list of departures for the club as they reshape their squad under new manager Christophe Galtier and sporting director Luis Campos. 

Paris Saint-Germain loan out Mauro Icardi for the 22/23 season 

PSG have signed Hugo Ekitike on loan as backup for their number 9 position, which is currently played by Kylian Mbappe. The former Inter Milan captain has struggled to get going at Paris, and will now be playing outside Europe’s big leagues. 

During the 21/22 season, Mauro Icardi scored five goals in 30 games across all competitions. Issues on and off the pitch have made it difficult for him to keep up the form that he once showed with Inter Milan. 

Due to the sheer quality that the team has up front, the Argentine will be unable to break into the starting line-up and would have struggled to get regular minutes. So, a loan move will enable him to get sufficient playing time, and will allow him a slight chance to make it to the World Cup squad later this year.

AFC Cup 2022: Kuala Lumpur City eliminate ATK Mohun Bagan with a 3-1 win in AFC Cup Inter-Zonal semifinals

India’s ATK Mohun Bagan (ATKMB) was knocked out from the AFC Cup 2022 after losing 3-1 against Malaysia’s Kuala Lumpur City FC in the inter-zone semi-finals at the Salt Lake Stadium in Kolkata on Wednesday.

Fakrul Aiman and Romel Morales both scored in injury time to ensure Kuala Lumpur City FC become the first Malaysian side to secure a place in the Inter-Zone Final of the AFC Cup.

ATK Mohun Bagan 1-3 Kuala Lumpur City FC

The Indian side threatened to take the lead in the 17th minute with Liston Colaco making a brilliant run from the right and having a shot at goal. Kuala Lumpur City FC goalkeeper Abdul Ghani initially fumbled but gathered the ball before ATKMB’s Finnish midfielder Joni Kauko could capitalise on the rebound.

AFC Cup 2022: Kuala Lumpur City eliminate ATK Mohun Bagan with a 3-1 win in AFC Cup Inter-Zonal semifinals

The Malaysia Cup holders put on a well-organised defensive display to frustrate their hosts before Josue gave Kuala Lumpur the lead against the run of play. Kuala Lumpur had been forced to sit back and absorb the pressure for much of the first half, although Jordan Mintah could have given his side the lead 18 minutes into the game.

After 45 minutes, ATKMB had dominated 81 percent of the ball possession but were left frustrated with no goals to show. On the hour mark the Indians were made to regret their lack of a cutting edge when Josue struck. ATK’s inability to clear from a throw-in saw the ball shovelled into the path of the Brazilian by Akram Mahinan and Josue’s first-time effort flew into the bottom corner.

With time running out, however, Molla looked destined to take the game into extra-time when he punished Kuala Lumpur’s failure to clear with a clinical strike but Fakrul’s glanced header from Josue’s free-kick out on the right two minutes later remarkably put the Malaysians back in front.

Kuala Lumpur City soon closed any window for an ATKMB comeback by making it 3-1 in the 95th minute. An error from ATKMB captain Florentin Pogba, the elder brother of World Cup-winning Paul Pogba, inside the own half gave Romel Morales an easy opportunity to put the game beyond ATKMB’s reach.

This was the second time ATK Mohun Bagan faltered at the same stage of the AFC Cup. Last year, ATK Mohun Bagan lost to Uzbekistan’s FC Nasaf 6-0 in the inter-zone semi-finals. Bengaluru FC are the only Indian club to have reached the final of the AFC Cup. 

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 40 Founders Edition Cooler Leaked online

0

According to reports, QbitLeaks has obtained the Founders Edition design for the next NVIDIA GeForce RTX 40 series. The revised Founders Edition GPU cooler, which will be included on the top-tier Ada Lovelace GPUs like the RTX 4090 and 4080, is visible in the new design.

The leaker claims that the GTC ’22 keynote, which is scheduled to take place two weeks later, would include the new cooler design that has been depicted. Although no specifics about the card are given, the redesigned shroud and fan design do resemble the RTX 4080 cooler that surfaced in a recent leak. It appears that NVIDIA will reuse their current cooler design while giving it a minor cosmetic upgrade.

Although the fans have been modified to a 7-blade design and have grown slightly in size, the general appearance of the shroud and design is largely unchanged from the existing Founders Edition graphics cards. The Ada Lovelace GPUs will be using a lot of power, thus this revised architecture should assist give considerably better cooling. Through the new 16-pin connectors, the cards will also make use of a PCIe Gen 5.0 connector interface and a Gen 5.0 power interface.

The leaker claims that this image is a teaser for GTC, so we may see CEO Jensen discuss his next-generation gaming range there. GTC was once a data centre and HPC-specific event, but since NVIDIA’s earnings have recently declined, largely because of a declining gaming sector, the business has reconfigured its premier event and made it specifically for gamers.

In comparison to the previous version, which offered 80 SMs or 10,240 cores, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 is anticipated to use a scaled-down AD103-300 GPU configuration with 9,728 cores or 76 SMs enabled of the total 84 units.

Due to its condensed design, the RTX 4080 might only have 48 MB of L2 cache and fewer ROPs than the complete GPU, which has 64 MB of L2 cache and up to 224 ROPs. The PG136/139-SKU360 PCB is anticipated to serve as the card’s foundation.

The TBP’s power rating has been increased by 20W to 340W, up from the 320W specification we previously received. This puts the TBP on par with the current RTX 3080 graphics card (up to 350W). Although it is unknown if the other RTX 40 series graphics cards will also benefit from the faster GDDR6X memory upgrade, Micron has already started full-scale production of up to 24 Gbps GDDR6X memory modules, so they must be used someplace.
