Tottenham Hotspur captain Heung-min Son has reportedly received a tempting offer from Major League Soccer side Los Angeles FC, sparking speculation about his future in North London. The 32-year-old forward is said to be intrigued by the proposal, which includes a lucrative deal and the chance to experience a new footballing culture in the United States.
Despite being flattered by LAFC's interest, Son is not rushing into a decision. According to sources close to the club, the South Korean star will first hold talks with Tottenham's new head coach Thomas Frank before making a final call. The Danish manager, who recently replaced Ange Postecoglou, is expected to outline his vision for the team and Son's role in it.
Spurs are reportedly leaving the decision in Son's hands, respecting his legendary status at the club. With just a year left on his contract, the coming days could be crucial in determining whether Son continues in the Premier League or begins a new chapter abroad.

Trump, EU's von der Leyen to meet on Sunday to try to clinch a trade deal
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen is set to meet U.S. President Donald Trump on Sunday to clinch a trade deal for Europe that would likely see a 15% baseline tariff on most EU goods, but end months of uncertainty for EU companies. U.S. and EU negotiators huddled in final talks on tariffs facing crucial sectors like cars, steel, aluminium and pharmaceuticals before the meeting, which is expected at 1530 GMT on Trump's golf course in Turnberry, western Scotland. U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick flew to Scotland on Saturday and EU Trade Commissioner Maros Sefcovic arrived on Sunday morning. Lutnick told "Fox News Sunday" that the EU needed to open its markets for more U.S. exports to convince Trump to reduce a threatened 30% tariff rate that is due to kick in on Aug. 1. "The question is, do they offer President Trump a good enough deal that is worth it for him to step off of the 30% tariffs that he set," Lutnick said, adding that the EU clearly wanted — and needed — to reach an agreement. A separate U.S. administration official was upbeat that a deal was possible. "We're cautiously optimistic that there will be a deal reached," the official said, speaking on condition of anonymity. "But it's not over till it's over." The EU deal would be a huge prize, given that the U.S. and EU are each other's largest trading partners by far and account for a third of global trade. Ambassadors of EU governments, on a weekend trip to Greenland organized by the Danish presidency of the EU, held a teleconference with EU Commission officials on Sunday to agree on the amount of leeway von der Leyen would have. In case there is no deal and the U.S. imposes 30% tariffs on Aug. 1, the EU has prepared counter-tariffs on 93 billion euros ($109 billion) of U.S. goods. EU diplomats have said a deal would likely include a broad 15% tariff on EU goods imported into the U.S., mirroring the U.S.-Japan trade deal, along with a 50% tariff on European steel and aluminium for which there could be export quotas. EU officials are hopeful that a 15% baseline tariff would also apply to cars, replacing the current 27.5% auto tariff. Some expect the 27-nation bloc may be able to secure exemptions from the 15% baseline tariff for its aerospace industry and for spirits, though probably not for wine. The EU could also pledge to buy more liquefied natural gas from the U.S., a long-standing offer, and boost investment in the United States. Trump told reporters there was "not a lot" of wiggle room on the 50% tariffs that the U.S. has on steel and aluminium imports, adding, "because if I do it for one, I have to do it for all." The U.S. president, in Scotland for a few days of golfing and bilateral meetings, told reporters upon his arrival on Friday evening that von der Leyen was a highly respected leader and he was looking forward to meeting with her. He said there was a 50-50 chance that the two sides could reach a framework trade pact, adding that Brussels wanted to "make a deal very badly." The EU now faces U.S. tariffs on more than 70% of its exports, with 50% on steel and aluminium, an extra 25% on cars and car parts on top of the existing 2.5% and a 10% levy on most other EU goods. EU officials have said a "no-deal" tariff rate of 30% would wipe out whole chunks of transatlantic commerce. A 15% tariff on most EU goods would remove uncertainty but would be seen by many in Europe as a poor outcome compared to the initial European ambition of a zero-for-zero tariff deal on all industrial goods. Seeking to learn from Japan, which secured a 15% baseline tariff with the U.S. in a deal earlier this week, EU negotiators spoke to their Japanese counterparts in preparation for Sunday's meeting. For Trump, aiming to reorder the global economy and reduce decades-old U.S. trade deficits, a deal with the EU would be the biggest trade agreement, surpassing the $550 billion deal with Japan. So far, he has reeled in agreements with Britain, Japan, Indonesia and Vietnam, although his administration has failed to deliver on a promise of "90 deals in 90 days."

Who is Roony Bardghji? Barcelona's teenage signing scores in Vissel Kobe friendly
Roony Bardghji, the 19-year-old Swedish winger, has taken the football world by storm with his recent transfer to FC Barcelona and a standout debut goal against Vissel Kobe in a pre-season friendly on July 27, 2025. But who is this young talent, and why is he generating so much buzz? Roony Bardghji: The Rising Star Early Life and Background Born on November 15, 2005, in Kuwait to Syrian parents, Roony Bardghji moved to Sweden at the age of six with his mother and younger brother, Rayan, who also plays in FC Copenhagen's youth system. Growing up in Kallinge, Sweden, Bardghji learned Swedish, adding it to his repertoire of four languages: Danish, Arabic, and English. His early football days began at local clubs Kallinge SK and Rodeby AIK before a brief stint at Malmö FF in 2019. His talent was evident early on, earning him the nickname 'Swedish Messi' due to his flair and goal-scoring ability. Breakthrough at FC Copenhagen Bardghji joined FC Copenhagen's youth system in 2020 and quickly rose through the ranks. At just 16, he became the club's youngest-ever player in November 2021 and the Danish Superliga's youngest goalscorer later that month. His breakout moment came in 2023 when he scored a stunning goal against Manchester United in the UEFA Champions League, helping Copenhagen secure a 4-3 victory. Before suffering an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury in May 2024, Bardghji had scored 11 goals in the 2023-24 season, cementing his status as one of Europe's brightest prospects. Barcelona's Bargain Signing In July 2025, Barcelona secured Bardghji's signature from FC Copenhagen for a modest €2.7 million, a deal made possible due to his contract nearing its expiration in December 2025. The transfer, spearheaded by Barcelona's sporting director Deco, reflects the club's strategy of investing in young, high-potential players. Bardghji signed a four-year contract until June 30, 2029, and joined Hansi Flick's first-team squad for pre-season training.
