Aberdeen have announced they have secured an £8million investment that will see their Cormack Park training complex given a major overhaul. Following the Dons AGM in December 2024, chairman Dave Cormack confirmed his plans to build a brand new indoor pitch located at the club's Westhill training base, and those intentions are now set to be given the go ahead after a cash injection from Cormack, director Tom Crotty and further investment.

On the forthcoming plans, chief executive Alan Burrows said: 'This latest injection of funding, approved at our last Annual General Meeting, takes the total investment from Dave, Tom and their colleagues to over £25 million in the last few years. We're incredibly grateful to our investors for the new funds, which will provide a significant portion of the capital required for these improvements at Cormack Park and our stadium, while also being able to continue to invest in the squad and the football operation.

Liverpool ‘play Alexander Isak waiting game' for dream summer signing
Liverpool have already splashed the cash in the transfer market this summer and could potentially make Newcastle star Alexander Isak their latest big-money signing Liverpool are willing to bide their time to make a move for Newcastle sensation Alexander Isak. The Swedish forward has been identified as a potential signing for the Reds this summer as they aim to bolster their attack. Current striker Darwin Nunez has been linked with a move to Italian champions Napoli, which would leave a vacancy at Anfield. But a deal looked difficult given Newcastle were in no mood to sell, while they also put an eye-watering £150m asking price on Isak. But it appears that Liverpool actually have a plan in place to potentially seal a late deal. The Liverpool Echo have reported that Merseyside chiefs are happy to just keep an eye on developments as it stands. They believe that Newcastle could potentially need funds to finance an imminent spree in the market. The Magpies are chasing lucrative deals for James Trafford, Anthony Elanga and Joao Pedro - with a £100m+ deal for Isak going a long way in helping Newcastle afford those three deals. There is also the small matter of Newcastle's efforts to keep Isak at St James' Park. Previous reports have suggested that the Magpies were willing to make the striker the highest-paid player in the club's history and it is suggested that Liverpool would have no issue in matching his demands. So, it may be wise for Arne Slot 's side to actually bide their time to see how discussions go. Meanwhile, Liverpool could also have more freedom when it comes to PSR restrictions closer to the end of the window. Their mega money deals for Milos Kerkez, Florian Wirtz and Jeremie Frimpong look set to go into last season's figures and given the Reds' relatively low spending in the seasons prior, they have a lot of headspace, meaning another huge fee could potentially be affordable. Speaking last season, Eddie Howe was unable to give any guarantees that his star forward would stay in the North East. He said: "I never make those guarantees about any player and it's not to do with Alex's future but I'd be foolish to sit here and do anything like that. Do you think Liverpool could sign Alexander Isak this summer? Share your thoughts in the comments below 'We want to keep our strongest players, I've said that ever since I've been here and sat in this seat. We have to try and keep our best players and bring in more good players to make us even stronger because the ambition of the club and everyone connected with the club is long-term success and that's the only way to get that." Meanwhile, Isak has also confirmed his stance on his future. He said: 'I don't know much, to be honest. From within the club and from our side there are absolutely no discussions. It's just full focus on playing for me. There's not much to say, really. I've commented on my situation and my security in Newcastle several times. 'It's been written how much I love the city and the club, how well I feel there. I'm not thinking about the future. I just want to perform for Newcastle. Now we won the cup, but we want to finish strong and reach the Champions League games. That's where my focus lies. 'There is no reason for me to think about anything else (other than Newcastle). I feel incredibly comfortable at Newcastle. The only focus I have is on playing.'

Stena Line Rebrands Passenger Lounges to Celebrate Year of Croeso
Swedish-owned ferry company Stena Line is re-branding its famous Hygge Lounges on its Dublin to Holyhead route to underline the connections between Scandinavia and Wales and celebrate the Welsh Year of Croeso (welcome) in 2025. The Hygge Lounge will become the Hwyl Lounge on both the Stena Adventurer and Stena Estrid. The firm said that although not strictly identical, both concepts share the same vibe with Hygge focusing on creating a cosy and comforting atmosphere with simple pleasure and good company while Hwyl is the Welsh term for the feeling of joy that comes from embracing the moment and experiencing a deep sense of contentment. The name Anglesey, where the port of Holyhead is situated, comes from old Scandinavian. With these historical links between Wales and Sweden, Stena Line is seeking to embrace that connection during the Year of Croeso. Stena Line Travel Commercial Manager, Irish Sea, Orla Noonan said a blend of Hygge and Hwyl provides the perfect conditions for a memorable trip and passengers can relax the moment they step onboard Stena Adventurer and Stena Estrid. She said: 'While Hygge is about finding life's cosy moments and Hwyl is more about embracing the joy of the moment such as the sensation of stepping out on deck and feeling the wind on your face, we feel there is much to celebrate about both concepts. 'With Hygge a former Oxford Dictionary Word of the Year finalist, we want to celebrate Hwyl with passengers on both sides of the Irish Sea and we're thrilled to be re-branding our lounge. 'Hwyl is a sense of emotional fervour or when you find yourself smiling from ear to ear or laughing out loud with family and friends. It can also be a feeling of peaceful contentment, and this relates very closely to the concept of Hygge. 'With Wales celebrating the Year of Croeso in 2025, we felt the time was right for this exciting re-brand.'
