David Alaba still plans on signing for Real Madrid

0

As announced by the player himself, David Alaba is set to leave Bayern Munich after almost a decade long spell with the Bavarians that has seen him lift every trophy available in club football, winning the sextuple last season itself. The Austrian is on the verge of agreeing a contract with Real Madrid, as has been the case since the winter transfer window.

However, while rumours dictate that the deal is signed, renowned Italian transfer guru Fabrizio Romano has made it clear that no contract has been signed by the player as of yet. Madrid have agreed to match the salary demands of the defender, who will receive €12 million per season and the contract will be of four years, running until 2025. 

Other clubs like Liverpool, Chelsea and PSG are also rumoured to be in contact with his agent regarding a possible last minute swoop, as mentioned by Romano. Moreover, the player himself is willing to wait around and consider all possible options before committing to one. 

The plan for the Austrian is still to sign for Real Madrid, but it is always complicated when it comes to such free agent deals. Bayern Munich have tried time and time again to negotiate a deal with their player, but he was adamant and wanted to leave the club at the end of the season. 

One of the most versatile defenders across Europe, Alaba can not only play left-back but has also been deployed as a centre-back in recent years. For the Austrian national team, he plays a midfield role and performs the responsibilities for all positions with uniform brilliance. 

Chelsea willing to sign Hazard back on cut price deal

0

Chelsea have been very shrewd with their transfer business in recent years, signing the likes of Timo Werner, Hakim Ziyech, Malang Sarr and Thiago Silva in deals that were heavily under their perceived demand and market value. The Blues are reportedly planning another transfer masterclass as they attempt to bring club legend Eden Hazard back to Chelsea. 

The Belgian has been struggling since joining his ‘dream club’ and has spent more games out injured than being available for selection, completely match fit. The numbers are not in his favour either, with him being injured 11 times and having made only 25 La Liga appearances for Los Blancos in two years with them.

His fortunes at Chelsea were something else altogether, with the winger barely missing matches throughout a season due to injury. 

Real Madrid are hence, keen on getting rid of the player with even Zinedine Zidane at a loss for words in terms of an explanation for Hazard’s injury woes. According to Mundo Deportivo, they are willing to accept a bid worth £43 million for Hazard, whose market value has dropped by about £100 million since making the highly anticipated move to the Bernabeu. 

Los Blancos are keen to usher their team into a new era, and are looking at Erling Haaland and Kylian Mbappe as future targets. They will have to do away with the Belgian to make room for the two youngsters on the wage books, and it looks even more likely now that his time at Madrid will come to an end this summer. 

George R.R. Martin – The Creator of Game of Thrones Signs New Five-Year Contract with HBO

George R.R. Martin, the creator of Game of Thornes has now signed a new five-year contract with HBO, a deal which is said to be “mid-eight figures”. Hollywood Reporter reported that the deal aims Martin to commit to developing original programming for the streaming and network service.

It may happen that the bond cements the commitment of HBO to the critically acclaimed Game of Thrones universe, it’s not clear that the new deal is purely related to the A Song of Ice and Fire Fantasy series and its several spinoffs and prequels, or if involves some other projects too.

A few later the news came out that three Game of Thrones spinoffs were revealed to be in the works at HBO. Among those projects, one of its name has working title 9 Voyages and will follow Lord Corlys Velaryon, AKA The Sea Snake, head of House Velaryon, and Lord of the Tides.

Series number three is going to be set in Flea Bottom, a slum in the capital city of Westeros of King’s Landing where characters like Gendry Baratheon and Davos Seaworth were born. All these projects are still in the early development stage, meanwhile, the House of the Dragon is set to start filming soon.

Martin said in his blog, “I wrote hundreds and hundreds of pages of The Winds of Winter in 2020. The best year I’ve had on [Winds of Winter] since I began it.”

“I need to keep rolling, though,” Martin admitted. “I still have hundreds of more pages to write to bring the novel to a satisfactory conclusion. That’s what 2021 is for, I hope. I will make no predictions on when I will finish.”

Former PSG player Jean-Pierre Adams is in a coma for the last 39 years

0

Jean-Pierre Adams is a France international who played as a centre-back. He played for OGC Nice and Paris Saint-Germain. He suffered a ligament rupture injury and was hospitalised for surgery on 17 March 1982 at the Edouard Herriot Hospital in Lyon.

But his anaesthetist made an error, and he suffered bronchospasm, which starved his brain of oxygen, and he slipped into a coma. He is still tragically in a coma to this day, aged 73 years.

Later, a court of law adjudicated on the case, and both the anaesthetist and trainee were given one-month suspended sentences and fines that translated to an $815 fine. His wife, Bernadette, refused to consider euthanasia and continued to tend to his needs.

Bernadette told CNN, last year: “No one ever forgets to give Jean-Pierre presents, whether it’s his birthday, Christmas or Father’s Day.”

“We buy presents like a T-shirt or a jumper because I dress him in his bed – he changes clothes every day.”

“I’ll buy things so that he can have a nice room, such as pretty sheets or some scent. He used to wear Paco Rabanne, but his favourite one stopped, so now I buy Sauvage by Dior. He senses that it is not me feeding him and looking after him. It’s the nurses who tell me, saying he is not the same. I think he feels things. He must recognize the sound of my voice, as well.”

A New Source Has Confirmed The Name – Call of Duty WWII: Vanguard

0

As per a new source, the new COD title from Sledgehammer Games is going to be named Call of Duty WWII: Vanguard and will take place partly in the time of 1950s. ModernWarzone, the YouTube channel is the source of the leak. It posted a video describing the 50s setting, which is going to be a part of a new alternate history timeline in which World War II remained after 1945.

“Per our sources, the 1950s leak that we had a while back, is still true — 100 percent — and what else is 100 percent true is that this entire game takes place in an alternate timeline where 1945 wasn’t the end of World War II. I don’t want to spoil any of the campaigns besides…World War II is not the World War II we know. This is going to take place in the 50s more than five years after. I can’t tell you when the game starts and when it ends, but I do know it will take place after the real-life events of WWII in parts.”

After ModernWarzone shared their latest report, Eurogamer also came into the scenario confirming partially and disputing others. According to Eurogamer, Call of Duty WWII: Activision is going to stick to this name. They said that the game will stick to a “traditional WWII setting.”

Eurogamer is obviously a reliable source but ModernWarzone provided the goods multiple times in the past and they look very much sure about the alternate 50s setting. Also, it has to be noticed that Eurogamer was trying to point out exactly what about the rumor not being “quite right” – even not being a full-on alternate timeline, could the 1950s come into play somehow? Activision has confirmed that a new premium Call of Duty will launch this holiday season, but any release date and the platforms are not yet announced.

Real Madrid is set to sell six players for star duo Mbappe and Haaland

Real Madrid is ready to sell six players to raise the fund for a sensational transfer bid for in-demand young strikers Erling Haaland and Kylian Mbappe.

Real Madrid has been pretty quiet in the last transfer window. Eden Hazard is the only big signing they made in 2019. But if they want Haaland and Mbappe in the same window, Madrid would need to cut down their squad, staff and wages massively.

According to the report by Mundo Deportivo, Real Madrid has already identified 6 players for sale next summer. The first two names on the list are the club’s two highest earners- Eden Hazard and Gareth Bale. Eden Hazard has completely failed to deliver at Spain after his blockbuster move from Chelsea in 2019. Real Madrid wants to get rid of him.

On the other hand, Gareth Bale is in Tottenham Hotspurs on loan. But Real Madrid is not ready to keep him for more. They are searching for a buyer for the Welshman.

However, the other 4 players are Sergio Ramos, Raphael Varane, Isco and Marcelo. Sergio Ramos’ contract is going to expire this summer, and he does not want to sign a new one. Paris Saint Germain, Manchester United and some other big clubs are interested in him. At the same time, Marcelo hinted at a reunion with his friend Cristiano Ronaldo at Juventus.

Real Madrid is scouting both Haaland and Mbappe for a long time. As per some, the young duo will conquer the world in the near future. It will be fascinating to see both of them in the same team.

Razer’s high-tech N95 mask dubbed Project Hazel to go into production

0

At the all-digital CES 2021, Razer, a gaming lifestyle company, announced an N95 respirator dubbed Project Hazel. The product was unveiled as a concept product but in a new twist, Min-Liang Tan, Razer CEO, has disclosed in an interview with Yahoo Finance that “Project Hazel is going to be a reality”.

“We were thinking, this is a concept project and this is going to be relevant when vaccinations and everything have been rolled out,” he said. “I think moving forward we decided, and I can tell you now, we are going to proceed in making it a reality and ship the smart mask.”

With the uncertainty of effectiveness surrounding the rollout of the coronavirus vaccines globally and the continued rise in the mortality rates and the number of coronavirus patients, the use of masks for protection won’t stop any time soon. This is apparently why Project Hazel is being transformed from concept to reality.

The mask utilizes ventilators that are detachable and rechargeable and also serve as voice amplifiers as embedded inside the mask are microphones. The outside has a glossy finish and is made from waterproof and scratch-resistant recycled plastic.

According to Gizmo China, “In Razer’s trademark manner, the nose mask is designed with RGB Chroma lighting which allows the two ventilators to glow, and even automatically shine light onto your mouth when it gets dark, so others can see you speaking.” Adjustable ear loops are also present.

“We realized the sustainability aspect since disposable masks aren’t the most sustainable.” Tan said they took their time researching and developing the “very best mask”.

“So with that in mind, we are going to go ahead and solve the sustainable aspect of the mask which is one of the big things for us. Project Hazel is going to be a reality. We are going to make it happen and I think we will all will be, unfortunately, wearing masks for a long time to come.”
