Liverpool could still make more than £200m this summer
Liverpool could still make a lot of money this summer, more than £200m in fact. The reality is that there are a lot of assets that need to be sold by Richard Hughes in this window. At this moment in time, with Hugo Ekitike closing in on a move to Liverpool, the Reds will have 18 non-homegrown players in their first team squad. LFC x Nike Air Max Buy Now LFC Retro Shirts Buy Now LFC Kits Buy Now LFC Nike Training Buy Now The list will include the following players: Alisson, Mamardashvili, Van Dijk, Konate, Robertson, Tsimikas, Kerkez, Mac Allister, Gravenberch, Wirtz, Szoboszlai, Endo, Salah, Diaz, Nunez, Chiesa, Gakpo, Ekitke. In the Premier League, you can only register 17 non-homegrown players so that means one person is guaranteed to be sold. But the reality is that it won't just be one player but multiple players who will move on. From the club's non-homegrown players the likes of Federico Chiesa, Luis Diaz, Kostas Tsimikas and Darwin Nunez could still be in line to leave the club. On top of that homegrown players like Harvey Elliott, Tyler Morton and Owen Beck also face uncertain futures. Meanwhile, U21 stars like Stefan Bajcetic and Ben Doak are again players who could be let go on permanent deal. We've had a look at the potential players who could be sold and for around how much to figure out just how much money Richard Hughes could be in line to make this summer. We've included the list here with some rough estimates of transfer fees. Players to be sold - Luis Diaz - £70m Darwin Nunez - £60m Federico Chiesa - £15m Ben Doak - £25m Kostas Tsimikas - £15m Harvey Elliott - £40m Tyler Morton - £12m These are the players from the first team squad. But some of the club's U21 players could also be set for permanent moves. Among the likeliest to leave and for how much are as follows: Owen Beck - £5m Calvin Ramsay - £1m

Tesla Makes The Safest Car In Europe But Autopilot Has Issues
Model 3 picks up top safety award in Europe. Photo: Wolfram Steinberg/dpa Photo: Wolfram ... More Steinberg/dpa (Photo by Wolfram Steinberg/picture alliance via Getty Images) Tesla sales might be plummeting across Europe, mainly due to CEO Elon Musk's misguided political aspirations, but on the safety front, the company's Model 3 just aced it. Tesla polls 359 out of 400 points to win safest car prize That's right folks, earlier this month, the Tesla Model 3 was named the safest new car on sale in 2025, according to the latest test results from the Euro NCAP. Out of the 20 newly tested vehicles, the Model 3 surged to the top of the list, polling an impressive 359 out of 400 possible points across all major safety categories. Just to reiterate, Euro NCAP has created its five-star safety rating system to help consumers, their families and businesses compare vehicles more easily and to help them identify the safest choice for their needs. Even though the Model 3 has been on the market longer than its competitors, the Tesla sedan continues to set a high bar for safety. Under Euro NCAP's stricter 2025 testing protocols, the Model 3 received 90% for adult occupant protection, 93% for child occupant protection, 89% for pedestrian protection, and 87% for its Safety Assist systems. The revised Tesla was complimented by Euro NCAP for its advanced driver assistance features such as the brand's automatic emergency braking (AEB) system, which performed admirably in a variety of test conditions. According to a WhatCar article, the car's child presence detection system and Intelligent Speed Assistance were also mentioned as notable features. Additional safety features praised by the NCAP organization include the Model 3's robust crash protection for both front and side collisions and pedestrian-friendly pop-up hood. While the Model 3 aced the safety tests, Euro NCAP testers raised concerns about driver expectations of the brand's Autopilot system. These concerns focused on the fact that some owners may overestimate the system's capabilities, which may lead to misuse or driver distraction behind the wheel. Even so, the Model 3 remained the highest-scoring vehicle tested under Euro NCAP's updated criteria this year. The fact that Tesla's Full Self-Driving (FSD) Supervised, perhaps the company's most comprehensive safety suite, is not yet permitted on European roads makes the Euro NCAP's concerns all the more intriguing. Even though many European cities employ map layouts that are far more complex than many American street scenarios, Tesla says that with FSD Supervised, the Model 3 could move through inner-city streets with little human supervision. I'm not sure how Euro NCAP might test that, but you'll be the first to know here once they do.
