PSG have lowered their asking price for Neymar

PSG are willing to sell Neymar at a lower price, but reportedly they won’t sell to Barcelona.

Paris Saint-Germain have reluctantly lowered their asking price for Neymar in a bid to offload the Brazilian in this summer’s transfer window. Neymar also has made his intentions clear to the Ligue 1 club that he wants to leave Parc des Princes and has his eye on a return to the Blaugrana.

The French champions had initially been looking to recoup a mouth-watering €300m for the Brazilian forward. But as reported by ​Sport, PSG have now lowered their asking price to just €180m, nearly half of what they originally set out to redeem. The report adds that PSG are only interested in money when it comes to Neymar, and they really don’t want to hear about any players being included in the deal.

Marca report that PSG are willing to let the 27-hear-old leave this summer, as they see his ego as damaging to the rest of the squad.

Neymar

Neymar will not play for PSG in China in their friendly against Sydney FC on Tuesday as he was left out of the squad for the game to work on his fitness. He will also miss their Trophee des Champions clash with Rennes due to suspension. It seems clear that Neymar is pretty keen to leave PSG in the transfer window

But now a story in Marca has claimed that PSG are adamant that the Brazilian is not going back to Camp Nou as they have no intention of sitting down for talks with their Spanish rivals. The relationship between PSG and Barcelona is toxic at the moment and although the French side are willing to listen to offers for Neymar, will not be selling him back to his old side.

Although Barcelona will also struggle to finance a transfer of that size without breaching UEFA’s Financial Fair Play regulations. ​Ivan Rakitic, ​Ousmane Dembele and Philippe Coutinho had all been mooted as players who could potentially make up part of Barcelona’s player-plus-cash offer, but a deal of this kind looks to be off the table for the time being.

PSG will reinvest the money, they will get by selling Neymar, in player recruitment. So they would prefer to have their pick of players from around the world rather than be limited to those which Barcelona deem surplus to requirements. An exit for Neymar for cash would help PSG to fall in line with UEFA’s FFP regulations and give them a chance to sign a couple of new players.

However, the Ligue 1 club could also find themselves in something of a lose-lose situation. They may not want a player-plus-cash deal, but the only alternative could be keeping Neymar – a player who has outrightly expressed his desire to leave the Parisian club, which brings problems of its own.

Administrative blunder by the Squash Rackets Federation of India (SRFI), as India lose its chance in World Championship

An administrative blunder by the Squash Rackets Federation of India (SRFI) has denied the national men’s team a chance to compete in the World Championship in Washington from December 15-21.

It is learnt that the SRFI officials were not able to get the necessary clearances in time for competing in the World Championship. From the Sports Authority of India (SAI) for the biennial event.

“The SRFI was not able to get a meeting with SAI and that is why the approval did not come and SRFI didn’t register the team. It is really sad that players have to bear the brunt of this,” a source told PTI.

“The last date for submitting India’s entry was July 16 and the SRFI had written to the SAI little over a month earlier, on June 14 for approval. The Federation had in fact submitted its Annual Calendar for Competitions and Training to the SAI as early as January 2019 wherein participation in the World championship was a point mentioned.

The national federation though claimed that it tried its best to get approval from the SAI.

The players, both men and women, are already struggling for guidance . As the SRFI is not being able to appoint a foreign coach after Egyptian Achraf Karargui left on a bitter note ahead of the 2018 Commonwealth Games. Calling the Indian federation “unprofessional”.

India were not exactly title contenders but have a competitive men’s team comprising world number 10 Saurav Ghosal, 48th-ranked Ramit Tandon and 55th-ranked Mahesh Mangaonkar.

Defending champions Egypt are favourites to lift the trophy. United States gears up to host the event for the first time in its 52-year history. India too has hosted the prestigious once, back in 2007 in Chennai.

Hosts USA will be joined by 22 teams representing Argentina, Australia, Canada, Colombia, Egypt, England, France, Germany, Hong Kong China, Ireland, Jamaica, Kuwait, Malaysia, New Zealand, Nigeria, Republic of Korea, Scotland, Singapore, South Africa, Spain, Switzerland and Wales.

Cristiano Ronaldo: “I hope to return to Madrid soon”

Cristiano Ronaldo insists that Juventus will win the Champions League, but he misses Madrid.

Ronaldo was honoured in Madrid with the Marca Leyenda. The five-time Ballon d’Or winner was awarded the accolade “for his successful career as a professional footballer and for the standing he has attained across the world.”

The 34-year-old enjoyed incredible success during his time with Real Madrid before joining Juventus in the summer of 208. He became Real Madrid’s all-time leading scorer with 450 goals in 438 appearances. He has also won four Champions League titles and two LaLiga trophies among other honours at the Santiago Bernabeu.

Ronaldo

After eight successive Serie A titles, Juventus are eyeing European glory following five runners-up medals since their last Champions League triumph in 1996.

Ronaldo believes Maurizio Sarri’s Juventus are poised to conquer Europe, sooner rather than later. He told Marca: “After winning what I won at Madrid I needed a change and new motivation. I still have the strength to keep winning.
Juventus will win the Champions League. I don’t know if it’ll be this year or the next, but it’s coming.”
He scored 28 goals in all competitions last season, 21 of those coming in Serie A. He helped the Italian giants to their eighth successive Serie A crown in 2018-19.

Ronaldo and Perez

Cristiano Ronaldo further told the reporters at the awards ceremony: “I felt sorry when I left Real Madrid. I miss both [Manchester and Madrid] but because of life’s circumstances I have lived more years in Madrid, my children and my girl were born here, so I miss Madrid more.”

“This trophy will be in a very nice place in my museum. Madrid is special, I travel a lot but there are few cities like Madrid. Much of this award is derived from what I did in Madrid. It is a Spanish trophy and leaves me very honoured.
Thanks to all those who have helped me to achieve it. It is a pride for me.
And I hope to return to Madrid soon.”

Manchester United reportedly held talks with Juventus over a potential Dybala-Lukaku swap deal

Manchester United are interested in signing Juventus star Paulo Dybala.

According to widespread reports in Italy, Juventus attacker Paulo Dybala and Manchester United striker Romelu Lukaku are set to be involved in a swap deal. The front pages of Corriere dello Sport and Tuttosport are dominated by reports that Dybala and Lukaku are poised to swap clubs. Juventus are reportedly willing to cash in on Dybala, while Lukaku wants to leave Manchester United.

Corriere dello Sport claims Juventus and Manchester United are on the verge of a deal, while Tuttosport says sporting director Fabio Paratici is accelerating a transfer for Lukaku – who has been tipped to join their Serie A rivals Inter Milan, although Inter have not come close to meeting United’s valuation of the Belgium striker.

Dybala

Dybala scored 10 goals for Juventus last season, among those he scored the winner against United in the Champions League group stage. But, the arrival of Cristiano Ronaldo has limited his impact in Turin. The former Palermo player did not go on Juventus’ recent tour of Asia because of his involvement in the Copa America with Argentina.

Juventus value Dybala at €100m and United are asking €85m for Lukaku. So the Red Devils would also need to pay some cash to the Serie A champions in exchange for the Argentina star.

Lukaku

But it is understood that the negotiations are at a very early stage and there is no guarantee United will make an offer for the Argentina forward, or that he would welcome a move to Old Trafford.

The Premier League transfer window closes on 8th August, so the two clubs have just over a week to iron-out a potential deal.

Realme invites Beta Testers for Project X, could be its own OS?

0

The Chinese handset maker who was a sub-brand of OPPO a year ago has seen huge sales of its handsets in India. Their competitive pricing and solid specs have made their smartphones lucrative for customers.

Realme reached the 2nd largest smartphone brand online for the last three months, as per Counterpoint research and made a strong impression in the eyes of the customers.

Realme invites Beta Testers for Project X, could be its own OS?

Another main thing that has helped Realme to grow is their focus on youth. It describes itself to be a youth-centric brand and justifies it with great smartphones at competitive prices.

Now one thing that has always irritated or say made a bad impact about Realme smartphones is their OS. The OPPO separated brand borrows the same Color OS seen on their parent brand smartphones.

Realme invites Beta Testers for Project X, could be its own OS?

To develop their own OS takes time and users obviously waited for this as promised by Madhav Seth, CEO, Realme India. Now, we see some positive signs regarding this.

The company recently sent emails to the beta testers to test something which Realme is calling ‘Project X’. Though not being disclosed about the truth, it is likely to be its own RealmeOS.

Yes, the OS might be named as RealmeOS because Realme recently trademarked the name ‘RealmeOS’ in the UK.

This suggests the company is working secretly to implement something big in the coming days which is why Realme has thought of targeting a small number of beta testers.

Once it gets tested and certified we can expect Realme to bring out the beta version of the RealmeOS to the real world for the enthusiasts.

Realme invites Beta Testers for Project X, could be its own OS?

For now, the only thing we can do is wait and hope that we do really get a new smartphone OS from Realme, be it RealmeOS or with some other name.

But one thing is pretty sure that Realme will bring a lot of change and improvements from the Color OS and make it more like “stock OS”. It will be interesting to see when the company actually announce its OS and which of its smartphones will actually support it.

B Sai Praneeth loses to Kento Momota in semi-finals of Japan Open 2019

India’s challenge at the Japan Open ended with Sai Praneeth’s loss to top seed Kento Momota in the semifinals.

Praneeth lost 18-21, 12-21 in a semifinal lasting 45 minutes.Momota had also beaten Sai at the Singapore Open earlier this year.

The world No.1 Japanese shuttler Kento Momota was too good as he outsmarted the Indian in straight games 21-18, 21-12 in the semifinals of the Japan Open BWF Super-750 Tournament in Tokyo on Saturday.

Praneeth’s plan was to be aggressive and cut short the rallies and confuse the world champion. He did well and it appeared things were going according to plan. Praneeth executed some breathtaking smashes, packed cross court drives with a lot of power and earned some early points. But once Momota got a measure of what was happening on the court he turned the tables and things became tougher for the Indian to handle.

Despite failing to retrieve some cross court smashes, Momota was not at all rattled, he upped the ante, displayed a lot of aggression and by retrieving almost everything he made Praneeth push hard for points. The ploy worked as Praneeth began making mistakes.

The Indian played well but was not able to match the speed of Momota. The Japanese superstar was all over the court from the 11th point in the first game. Though Praneeth worked hard he was not able to stop Momota.

Praneeth said that he tried hard but it is difficult to beat Momota. “When I am attacking and getting points I played good. But once he started doing well I was always in a hurry to finish rallies, made a couple of mistakes and some judgement errors. My game plan was working. But it is not easy to beat Momota, he is always ready to play any game, if he wants to play defence he will play defence, he wants to play rally he can play and if he wants to play attack he can attack. Whatever plan I prepared it is not easy to beat him…his game in these types of court is very good,” Praneeth told BWF website, adding that he is satisfied with his performance.

“But still I can take some positives from this tournament. Hopefully, I can carry forward this confidence and do well in the forthcoming tournaments,” Sai added.

In the final, Momota will face Jonatan of Indonesia, who downed Jan O Jorgensen of Denmark 21-14, 21-14 in the other last four clash.

This was not the first time that Yuvraj Singh entertained his fans in the Global T20 Canada. Before this, he scored 21-ball 35 that helped Toronto Nationals secure a two-wicket victory over Edmonton Royals in their 2nd match of league.

The former India-all rounder was, criticized in the opener of the league for his slow approach. Yuvraj was struggling with a back issue as he made just 14 from 27 balls in National’s first game.

However, Yuvraj Singh came up with much-improved effort in Toronto Nationals rest of the matches.

After winning the toss, Winnipeg Hawks opted to bowl against Toronto Nationals. Chirag Suri and Heinrich Klaasen fell in the first 5 overs as Rodrigo Thomas and Yuvraj Singh heroics helped the Nationals get past 200.

Yuvraj Singh is playing in the Global T20 Canada after announcing his retirement from international cricket and the Indian Premier League.

However they were not able to defend the total as Winnipeg Hawks took the match to the end and clinched a last ball win. The Hawks lost two wickets in the ultimate over. Crhis Lynn was the player of the match with his 89 runs of 48 balls which took his team past victory.
