Luis Diaz has encouraged Mohamed Salah to stay at Liverpool beyond the end of the season, admitting it would be ‘very hard’ for the club should the forward decide to move on. Salah has cemented his status as an all-time Liverpool great since swapping Roma for Anfield back in 2017, with the Egyptian playing an instrumental role across Jurgen Klopp’s trophy-laden tenure on Merseyside. But Salah has entered into the final 12 months of his contract at Liverpool and the attacker appeared to confirmed that it would be his ‘last year’ with the Reds following the side’s 3-0 win at…

Dame Sarah Storey has hit out at Paralympics organisers after winning gold in the women’s C5 time trial. The 46-year-old won the 18th Paralympic gold medal of her career on Wednesday after finishing first in the event for the fifth Games in a row. But Storey, who is Britain’s most successful Paralympian of all time, was furious with the decision to shorten the women’s course around Clichy-sous-Bois in the eastern suburbs of France’s capital to 14.1 kilometres. In contrast, the men’s C5 race, which is scheduled to take place on Wednesday afternoon, is two laps of the same course which…

It wasn’t long ago that embarrassed Detroit Lions fans protected their identity by wearing paper bags over their heads while watching games at Ford Field. Their team was the butt of all jokes after a long line of abysmal seasons which included the wretched 2008 campaign when they failed to register a single win, going 0-16. Performances barely improved the following year when the toothless Lions celebrated just two victories and they won just three, five and three times again as 2019, 2020 and 2021 flops. The Lions haven’t played for the Vince Lombardi Trophy since the Super Bowl era…

Liverpool’s £12.5million signing of Federico Chiesa will prove to be the ‘signing of the transfer window’, Micah Richards believes. Arne Slot had a quiet first summer at Anfield, only signing two new players: goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili who was immediately loaned back to Valencia and Chiesa. The versatile attacker arrives from Juventus in a deal worth £10m, plus £2.5m in add-ons, with a great reputation, having scored 34 goals and made 26 assists for the Italian giants over the last four years. He was also pivotal for Italy in their Euro 2020 triumph and was once valued at £100m. But given…

Raygun is adamant that she was Australia’s best female to represent her country at the Olympics but has apologised to the breakdancing community for her routines which went viral. Rachael Gunn, who competes under the name ‘Raygun’, scored zero in all three of her heats as breakdancing made its Olympic debut in Paris this summer. The 37-year-old created headlines around the world for her moves which included a kangaroo hop, a snake-like wriggle on the floor and the sprinkler. Questions had been raised over Gunn’s credentials but she claims that Australia needed ‘more resources’ in order to win an Olympic…

Martin Zubimendi has underlined his commitment to Real Sociedad after turning down a summer move to Liverpool, labelling the La Liga outfit – his boyhood club – his ‘life’. Liverpool appeared on the cusp of landing Zubimendi last month, only for the 25-year-old to stay on with Sociedad after being offered an improved contract in San Sebastian. The highly rated midfielder, who was a part of Spain’s triumphant Euro 2024 squad, had also been on the radar of Arsenal, Barcelona and Bayern Munich throughout the summer. Liverpool scoured the market for possible alternatives after moving on from Zubimendi but the…
