Crew acquire striker Wessam Abou Ali as DP
The Columbus Crew acquired striker Wessam Abou Ali for an undisclosed transfer fee on Saturday. Multiple reports said the MLS club paid $7.5 million to land the Egyptian Premier League star. Abou Ali, 26, joins the Crew as a designated player and is signed through 2027 with a 2028 club option. "Wessam is a special player whose journey speaks to his resilience, character and tireless work ethic, which are qualities we value at our Club," Crew general manager Issa Tall said. "He is a proven goal-scorer who knows what it takes to help his team win. His clinical finishing, energy and charisma will strengthen our squad, and we are confident that he will thrive within our system." Abou Ali led Al Ahly to consecutive Egyptian Premier League titles in 2023-24 and 2024-25 and was the league's leading goal scorer (18) in 2023-24. The team also won the Egyptian Super Cup in 2024 and the CAF Champions League in 2023-24. He tallied 38 goals and 10 assists in 60 matches across all competitions with Al Ahly, including a hat trick against FC Porto in the FIFA Club World Cup on June 23 in East Rutherford, N.J. Abou Alli, who was born in Denmark and competes internationally for Palestine, launched his pro career in 2018 with the Danish side Aalborg BK. --Field Level Media Field Level Media 2025 - All Rights Reserved

'I'm so happy that we are all here together,' Kelly said to the audience's cheers to close out the halftime event. As Rolling Stone reported, the show took place on an innovative stage located in the upper stands of the venue, which eliminated the need to set up between halves during the game. It 'preserves the integrity of the pitch,' Hugh Evans, CEO of Global Citizen told RS. 'By building our platform high in the stands, we ensured that the newly installed natural grass remains untouched while delivering an unforgettable show that is designed to be time-efficient and visually stunning.' With the halftime show and its partnership with FIFA, Global Citizen hopes to raise $100 million for global education access. 'I'm proud to represent America on this unique stage that will bring people from all corners of the world together,' Doja Cat told Rolling Stone ahead of the event. 'I'm also extremely grateful to continue to support global education efforts by raising funds for the FIFA Global Citizen Education Fund.'

Real Madrid now see exit-linked midfielder as indispensable
Dani Ceballos played south of 70 minutes in Real Madrid's recent FIFA Club World Cup campaign and all signs pointed to his departure from the club given a clear lack of prominence under the new manager. The player, after all, did not have a very big role to play last season despite Carlo Ancelotti's guarantees and the arrival of a new generation of midfielders in Arda Guler and Franco Mastantuono only added to the competition he was already drowning in. Given his situation, Ceballos was long seen as a prime candidate to leave Real Madrid this summer with multiple reports linking him back to his boyhood club Real Betis. The situation, however, appears to have taken a drastic turn. Not for sale As relayed in a recent update by AS, Ceballos is now seen as indispensable and non-transferable by Real Madrid, marking a new turn in his roller coaster journey at the club. Despite not having many minutes under Xabi Alonso in his first tournament in charge, the Spanish midfielder has given the board several reasons to see him as key – primarily factors related to position depth and market dynamics. For starters, Real Madrid feel they lack creative midfielders after the departure of Luka Modric – something Ceballos can bring to the table. Needless to say, that is the primary reason Los Blancos refuse to sell him all of a sudden. The second reason has more to do with the transfer market and the lack of availability of creative midfielders in general. After all, not many clubs at this stage of pre-season will be willing to negotiate the departures of players who appeal to Real Madrid as a creative presence given that they will all be pillars of their current team's projects. All factors considered, a sale at this point looks unlikely and Ceballos will stay to feature under Alonso. The prominence he will have and whether he will be a starter, however, remains to be seen.
