Friday's briefing: Alexander Isak's Newcastle future in the balance
Isak reportedly keen to make Newcastle exit Alexander Isak's goals helped take Newcastle into next season's Champions League (Owen Humphreys/PA) Alexander Isak has told Newcastle he wants to explore a move away from the club, according to reports. Hours after Newcastle confirmed Isak was not part of the Newcastle squad travelling to Asia for pre-season friendlies due to a minor thigh injury it was reported the Sweden striker is keen to leave Tyneside. Isak scored 23 goals last season as Newcastle qualified for the Champions League, and the 25-year-old has been linked with Liverpool in recent weeks. The forward still has three years left on his contract at Newcastle, who he joined in the summer of 2022 from Spanish side Real Sociedad. Gunners splash the cash again for Mosquera Welcome to The Arsenal, Cristhian Mosquera 💫 — Arsenal (@Arsenal) July 24, 2025 Arsenal have made Valencia defender Cristhian Mosquera their fifth signing of the summer, taking the club's spending to close to £140million. Spaniard Mosquera joins for an initial fee of £13m – with performance-related add-ons – and is understood to have agreed a five-year deal with an option of a further year. The 21-year-old is set to provide cover for William Saliba and Gabriel at the heart of the Gunners' defence, but can also operate anywhere along the backline. 'It means a lot to me,' Mosquera told the club website. 'It's an opportunity that came up and I couldn't let it pass me by. I'm joining a historic, massive club. When you arrive here with your family, you really feel the greatness of this place.' England confident over Wiegman future Sarina Wiegman has led England into a third successive major final at Euro 2025 (Nick Potts/PA) Sarina Wiegman will remain as England boss until the conclusion of her contract, Football Association chief Mark Bullingham has said. Wiegman has led England to their third consecutive major final with Spain – who beat the Lionesses in the World Cup final two years ago – their opponents in the Euro 2025 final on Sunday. England are aiming to defend their Euro 2022 title and Wiegman is signed on until the conclusion of the 2027 World Cup. Bullingham said: '(It won't be) hard at all (to keep her). We are committed to her until 2027, she is committed to us, and we've obviously got a new team to support her. 'We haven't quite started working on 2027, although some of the logistical things we're looking at, but I know that her focus, hopefully after a success on Sunday, will shift quite quickly to 2027.' Johnson Jets into role at the Palace We are pleased to confirm that Woody Johnson's purchase of Eagle Football's shareholding in the club has now been completed.#CPFC — Crystal Palace F.C. (@CPFC) July 24, 2025 New York Jets co-owner Woody Johnson has completed his purchase of a stake in Crystal Palace. Johnson, a former United States ambassador to the United Kingdom, joins chairman Steve Parish, Josh Harris and David Blitzer as a partner and director of the Eagles, and has also signed the Premier League's Owners' Charter. 'Eagles fans have demonstrated extraordinary loyalty, passion, and unwavering dedication and I am excited to meet and get to know them,' Johnson told the Eagles website. Johnson's arrival at Palace comes with the club in dispute with UEFA over which European competition they will play in next season after winning the FA Cup in May. The Eagles were demoted from the Europa League to the Conference League after falling foul of UEFA's rules governing multi-club ownership, but have submitted an appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport.

Euro 2025 has been a wild ride. Are you enjoying the drama?
The end is in sight and so is the trophy. And, somehow, England still have their eyes on the prize. Euro 2025 has been a tournament of unlikely comebacks for Sarina Wiegman's team. They lost their opening game to France but rallied and made it through to the knockouts; they went 2-0 down to Sweden in the quarter-finals but came back to win a preposterous penalty shootout; and they looked beaten in their semi-final against Italy but somehow found an equaliser in the 96th minute and a winner in the 120th minute. The champions are not letting go of their trophy lightly. Have you been enjoying the drama? Whether you have watched matches in Switzerland, fan parks, pubs or on the edge of your sofa, we would love to hear from you. Is there a buzz of excitement about the final? Which teams have impressed you? Who will be crowned champions on Sunday? Does this tournament feel like a step up in quality from the previous Euros three years ago?

Horse racing tips: ‘He can remain unbeaten' – Templegate's NAP can strike in big race at Ascot
TEMPLEGATE'S is looking to build the bank ahead of a huge weekend, and his Friday tips are below. Back a horse by clicking their odds below. A BIT OF SPIRIT (2.25 Ascot, NAP) This son of Palace Pier has done well to win both his starts to date. He clocked a fantastic time when scoring at Salisbury earlier this month and deserves this crack at stronger company. He can stay unbeaten. JENTOBELLO (1.30 Uttoxeter, nb) Iain Jardine's five-year-old has shown plenty of quality when winning bumpers at Kelso and Market Rasen. He went into many notebooks for his hurdling debut and we'll see how he goes on this first crack over timber. WESTERN CLOUDS (2.02 Uttoxeter, treble) Took a big step forward from her debut when winning well at Perth earlier this month. She travelled really strongly under champion jockey Sean Bowen there and crossed her hurdles like an old hand. There should be a lot more to come. THURSO (4.10 Ascot, Lucky 15) His form has taken a big step forward with two wins following a couple of excellent places. He's up a fair 3lb for scooting in at Chepstow last time and moving up a furlong could unlock further improvement.
