Panzanella Is a Fresh and Tasty Answer to Stale Bread
Rather than throw it to the birds, you might soak it in milk kissed with cinnamon and sugar to make a buttery pan of French toast. You could pulverize the dry slices in a food processor to make bread crumbs, or cube and fry it in a little olive oil for salad croutons.

Celtic-linked Mathias Kvistgaarden 'chooses' new club

Kvistgaarden, who scored 17 goals in 29 Danish Superligaen appearances last season, is set to sign for Norwich City, claims footmercato, as they aim to return to the Premier League. Read more: His impressive form attracted attention, prompting Brondby's sports director Benjamin Schmedes to comment last month. Schmedes said: "It doesn't surprise me that there is great interest in him from many teams. "But I can't say that he is close to being sold or that he is far from being sold either. "That's because it is an ongoing process, and the most important thing is that we are very transparent in our dialogue with each other." Norwich finished 13th in the English Championship last season.

Family of French journalist jailed in Algeria asks Zidane for help
The family of a French sports journalist who has been sentenced to seven years in prison in Algeria is calling for help from the sporting world and football superstar Zinédine Zidane, who is of Algerian descent. Christophe Gleizes, a 36-year-old freelance journalist, was sentenced last week over an interview with an Algerian football coach accused of ties to a banned separatist movement, in a case rights groups say criminalises routine reporting. Although Gleizes' family had been reportedly advised to keep quiet about their son's detention by French diplomats, following his sentencing, they decided to break their silence. In an interview with French broadcaster France 2 on Thursday evening, Gleizes' relatives called on sports personalities to support his case. "It would be great if Zinédine Zidane were to get involved in this fight,' said Gleizes' father in law, Francis Godard. Godard added that the case was "a fight for both freedom of the press and the world of football. Journalists are mobilised, as we know, but we would like the sporting world to be just as mobilised. Christophe is a sports journalist and is therefore interested in the business of sport. This concerns the world of sport very directly." Although Gleizes has been tried and convicted, prosecutors have not publicly announced the charges and Algerian officials have not commented on the case. Algerian authorities have been repeatedly accused of using anti-terrorism laws to target political speech by rights advocates. A case dating back to May 2024 Journalist and football fan Gleizes was arrested in May 2024, after travelling to Algeria to write a series of articles, including a piece about the golden era of the Jeunesse Sportive de Kabylie football club, located in the Kabylia region. On 28 May, Gleizes was arrested and placed under judicial supervision for having entered Algeria on a tourist visa, "glorifying terrorism," and "possessing propaganda publications harmful to the national interest," Reporters Without Borders (RSF) said last week, stating that the charges were "unfounded." According to RSF, the charges stem from the fact that Gleizes was in contact with a coach from the Jeunesse Sportive de Kabylie (JSK) football club, located in the Kabylie region of Algeria. The Algerian government opposes Kabylie independence and has cracked down on groups backing it. RSF reported that the individual who Gleizes was in touch with, happens to be a leading figure in the Movement for the Self-Determination of Kabylie (MAK), which was designated a terrorist organisation by the Algerian authorities in 2021. However, RSF added that "the first interactions between Christopher Gleizes and the individual in question occurred in 2015 and 2017, well before the MAK was proscribed as a terrorist entity." Years later, in 2024, in preparation for his piece on the JSK football club, Gleizes made contact with the individual again, however this is not something which he concealed. The French journalist's sentence was handed down as relations between France and Algeria have reached new lows. The two countries are sparring over migration, extradition, trade and France's change in position over the status of the disputed Western Sahara.

Will Kylian Mbappe play in Real Madrid vs Dortmund in FIFA Club World Cup?
It is too soon to say whether Kylian Mbappe will start in Real Madrid's Club World Cup quarterfinal match against Borussia Dortmund on Saturday, coach Xabi Alonso said, as the French forward continues his recovery from gastroenteritis. Mbappe made his tournament debut on Tuesday as Real Madrid edged Juventus 1-0 to reach the quarterfinals after missing all of the group stage. 'He's getting better. He's been improving over the last three days,' Alonso told reporters at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey on Friday. 'Tomorrow morning we will be deciding if he will be part of the initial 11.' Mbappe came off the bench as a substitute in the second half of the Spanish side's 1-0 win over Juventus in Miami on Tuesday, earning wild applause in a scene that underscored his global appeal at the U.S.-hosted tournament. Mbappe was briefly hospitalised early in the tournament, isolated from his teammates as he recovered. Alonso's team has leaned on Gonzalo Garcia to deputise in his absence, as the 21-year-old academy graduate has recorded three goals - including Tuesday's winner - and an assist in a breakout performance at the competition. 'I think (Garcia and Mbappe) could complement each other and if it's something that is required, it's not something I'm going to turn a blind eye to,' said Alonso. Madrid faces a Dortmund team in solid form on Saturday, after the German side held off a stirring second-half fightback from Monterrey 2-1 this week to book its spot in the final eight. 'Dortmund is a very good team. As soon as (coach Niko Kovac) was at the helm, they were growing and developing and on the rise,' said Alonso. 'We are facing a tough opponent... It's gonna be tight tomorrow.'
