🤝 Deal done, Leeds United and Betis agree Mateo Joseph transfer

Yahoo12-06-2025
The '9' of the summer at Real Betis is about to fall. And that is none other than Mateo Joseph. The U21 international with Spain is about to arrive at Benito Villamarín as a player. Indeed, according to several English media reports, Leeds United and Real Betis have already reached an agreement for the player.
Graeme Bailey assures this on the Leeds United specialized portal 'leedsutdnews.com'. The two clubs would have reached an initial agreement of 8.5 million pounds (about 10 million euros) for the forward, who is currently playing with Spain in the U21 European Championship.

Mateo Joseph has played 73 matches with the first team of Leeds United, with a balance of six goals and three assists. In addition, he has been part of the academy of the Yorkshire team with whose subsidiary he has become one of the most prolific forwards.
The departure of Joseph is a round business for Leeds, who sees how a player that cost them close to one million euros (brought by Víctor Orta in his stage as sports director at the club) is now sold for almost ten times more,

Merging AI and Quantum Computing: Here's the Stock to Watch

Key Points With its cutting-edge GPUs, Nvidia is a formidable force in the AI industry. Collaborating with quantum computer developers and Japanese researchers, Nvidia is applying its AI capabilities to advance quantum computing. While Nvidia stock seems pricey, it's a no-brainer option for investors seeking both AI and quantum computing exposure. 10 stocks we like better than Nvidia › Bread is great. Meat -- or the vegetarian filling of your choice -- is great, too. But it was the Earl of Sandwich who married the two in the 1700s to create the sandwich as we know it. The race to integrate artificial intelligence (AI) and quantum computing doesn't require the ingenuity of an English nobleman. Today, tech leaders are racing to incorporate the two technologies to revolutionize computing abilities. While Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) is often recognized as an AI industry stalwart, the company is also helping to advance quantum computing, making it a smart choice for those interested in gaining simultaneous exposure to the two burgeoning industries. The company for all AI seasons It's hard to overestimate Nvidia's position as an AI leader, since it has a hand in the varying niches of the AI field. Nvidia AI Foundry, for example, offers customers an end-to-end platform and service for constructing custom generative AI models, including large language models and AI chatbots. Additionally, Nvidia AI Enterprise provides a cloud-native suite of software tools, libraries, and frameworks. Nvidia's graphic processing units (GPUs) provide the backbone for its AI proficiency. The company's latest GPU architecture, Nvidia Blackwell, is in high demand from data centers, where AI computing occurs. Earlier in July, hyperscaler CoreWeave announced that it was "the first cloud provider to deliver this groundbreaking GPU architecture for AI, graphics, and high-performance computing workloads." Like CoreWeave, hyperscaler peer Nebius is rolling out availability to Blackwell architecture to customers, and the company is, unsurprisingly, extremely enthusiastic. In June, Nebius announced that the Blackwell architecture was now available to customers in Europe. With respect to the United States, Nebius is developing a data center in New Jersey that the company plans on singularly dedicating to Nvidia Blackwell-architecture GPUs. Making the quantum leap Unlike companies such as IonQ and Rigetti Computing, which are building actual quantum computers, Nvidia is taking a different -- though necessary -- tack to advancing the nascent field. For one, Nvidia is building a research center in Boston that will integrate its Nvidia GB200 Grace Blackwell superchip (providing advanced AI computing) with quantum computing hardware. The result will be accelerated quantum supercomputing that Nvidia says "will help solve quantum computing's most challenging problems, ranging from qubit noise to transforming experimental quantum processors into practical devices." A qubit is the basic unit of information in quantum computing. Providing 2,020 of its H100 GPUs interconnected by its Quantum-2 InfiniBand networking platform to Japan's National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST), Nvidia is also playing a pivotal role in facilitating progress at the ABC1-Q, the world's largest research supercomputer dedicated to quantum computing. In addition, the system is integrated with Nvidia CUDA-Q, an open-source hybrid computing platform that assists hardware and software to conduct enormous quantum computing applications. Speaking to the collaboration between Nvidia and the AIST, Tim Costa, Nvidia's senior director of computer-aided engineering, quantum and CUDA-X, was quoted as saying: Seamlessly coupling quantum hardware with AI supercomputing will accelerate realizing the promise of quantum computing for all. Nvidia's collaboration with AIST will catalyze progress in areas like quantum error correction and applications development -- crucial for building useful, accelerated quantum supercomputers. Is Nvidia a no-brainer buy today for AI and quantum computing exposure? There are several AI leaders and a handful of quantum computing pioneers, however, Nvidia is one of the very few companies developing technologies for both tech fields. This makes it an obvious consideration for those interested in a single investment that provides exposure to both corners of the tech industry. Taking a quick look at the stock's valuation, investors may conclude that shares are pricey now, trading at roughly 56 times trailing earnings. It's important to recognize, though, that Nvidia's position as a semiconductor and AI powerhouse has led to it commanding a higher valuation -- it's five-year average trailing P/E is 70. Therefore, investors shouldn't dismiss the stock as unattractively valued. And though there may be bumps in the road as these two fields mature, Nvidia is an excellent choice for investors looking to be in position to prosper from the growth of AI and quantum computing.

🎙️ More signings for Barça? Laporta says the transfer market's still open

FC Barcelona is still unable to register its new signings, Joan García and Marcus Rashford, or the renewed Szczesny, due to the economic restrictions that the club is facing, but Joan Laporta is not closing the door to further reinforcements. "As a club, we need to have more players than usual, and that means we need to invest more," explained the Blaugrana president in an interview with CNN. Laporta justified the need to expand the squad by arguing that players are not machines. "We have players with a lot of talent, but they are also human beings, and there is a limit," he stated. "They need time to rest and enjoy themselves, and I think that's something to take into account," he added. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Laporta analyzes Rashford So far, the only confirmed signings are goalkeeper Joan García and striker Marcus Rashford. Regarding the latter, the president highlighted his involvement in wearing the Blaugrana jersey. "We signed this player because he had a great commitment to coming to Barcelona," Laporta assured. "He is fast, strong, committed, and did everything possible to sign for Barça," he added. "He pressured his agent, spoke with the club, and at the same time, with Manchester United," the director detailed. 🌎 Expanding market Laporta also showed himself to be open to playing an official LaLiga match in the United States. "It would be a great honor to participate in that event: an official LaLiga match that would also be an important event in the United States," he added. During the tour of Asia, Laporta has been one of the main protagonists. He participates in numerous institutional acts and has highlighted the importance of this market for the club. "For us, Asia is crucial, it's very important," he assured. "It's a market where we can develop our image, our brand, and our values," he said. "We have many, many followers here and we are very, very grateful for the treatment," Laporta concluded. This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence.

‘I've seen F1 go from a man's world to women at the front of the queue'

When race promoter Ariane Frank-Meulenbelt took over the running of the Hungarian Grand Prix in 2012, Formula One was very much still a man's world. Now, she sees the demographic of both the fans and those who work in motorsport changing. 'It's getting younger. It's getting way more female. I watch the opening of the gates at every grand prix and the thing that really struck me last year was that the first people at the gate were young women,' she says. 'The noses pressed up to the gate were all women.' Having held its inaugural race in 1986, the Hungarian GP was the first and only grand prix to ever be held behind the Iron Curtain. Celebrating its 40th year in 2025, it remains one of the longest running and most popular on the F1 calendar The Formula One Group (FWONK) has an estimated market cap of £24bn, and posted revenue of $3.41bn (£2.54bn) for 2024, up 5.9% annually. How F1 became the family business Frank-Meulenbelt's own entry into the F1 scene started at the age of 14, when the family business – set up by her father, uncle and mother – took over the promotion rights for the Hungarian GP in 1994. 'My father's English was notoriously bad, so he started dragging me with him around the world to help him translate in meetings and in contracts. So I started very young in this business.' Now splitting her time between Budapest and Vienna, Frank-Meulenbelt – officially the vice-president for international relations at the Hungaroring motorsport circuit – spent a stint working for Red Bull in London before returning home to the Austrian capital in 2007 knowing that at some point she was likely to take over the family firm. However, tragedy struck in 2012 with the sudden death of her father and she unexpectedly had to step up and take his place – just weeks before that year's Hungarian GP and with her one-year-old son in tow. 'That was a shock to the system. We all heavily relied on him as a family and also as a business. I mean, he was very much the heart and soul of the F1 business, especially. It was seven weeks before the grand prix and there was no handover,' she recalls. Her father, Tamas Frank, was very much an 'old-style' businessman – 'he was very much relationships, two mobile phones and not much documentation' – so there was very little to work with. But cancelling the event was never in question and she had strong support from then F1 supremo Bernie Ecclestone. 'I remember Bernie calling me and saying, 'If you don't want to have the grand prix, let me know and we'll find a solution.' And that hadn't crossed my mind. It was clear we were going to carry on. And, you know, luckily it was a big team and a lot of them have been involved for many, many years, and we made it work.' Despite the tragic circumstances and ensuing challenges, the 2012 Hungarian GP did go ahead and was won by Lewis Hamilton. Not that she really remembers much; it was all an emotional blur. But the race went ahead and that's what mattered. F1 promoter in her own right Fast forward to 2025, and Frank-Meulenbelt has established herself as a race promoter in her own right. Last year alone, a record 300,000 spectators flocked to Budapest for the Hungarian Grand Prix, long deemed a classic on the F1 calendar. She also works closely with the Austrian GP, for which her company sells tickets. Meanwhile, at home, the toddler of 2012 is now a strapping teenager with a younger brother also in double digits. But while she at least had a year at home with her oldest child, the second time round was very different as she had little, if any maternity leave. 'He was in the office with me and I had a lot of help,' she explains. Read more: 'We were told being bald is bad — but our skincare gel hit 8,000 orders in one month' Indeed, Meulenbelt-Frank is the first to admit that juggling a successful career in motorsport with family life is a challenge – particularly with travelling frequently. 'I've got to be honest, it's hard. I can't say that I'm there for every school play or sports tournament. But I've got a very supportive husband and if I'm not there, he is.' They do carve out time as a family wherever possible, though, and the Hungarian GP still sees all family hands on deck. Her older son even had a small role at the 2024 event – just as she had started out with her father. 'That was a full circle moment for me,' she says. Her proudest professional moment, undoubtedly, is helping get Formula One back on the road through COVID, when many teams looked set to fail without sponsorship money. After the start of the 2020 season was cancelled, it came back to life behind closed doors – first in Austria, which held two races, and then Hungary, over three consecutive weekends in July. When first asked whether she could imagine holding a closed-door event in seven weeks' time, Meulenbelt-Frank thought 'have you lost it?'. 'But within about half an hour, we thought let's try and get together with our friends in Austria. We knew that we were going to find a way to get the sport back on the road.' Read more: A naval officer's submarine saga inspired me to become a leader 'Those seven weeks were like reinventing the wheel. Nobody knew how you put on an event with so few people, borders shut and at the height of COVID and testing. But we managed to pull off three successful events between us and that's what got F1 on the road and then other sports like football followed.' After over a decade managing the event herself, such achievements are very much her own. 'I've never thought of myself as 'oh, it's weird because I'm a woman'. For me, it was always strange because I was a daughter. I always thought, I wonder if they're still looking at me as a 14-year-old, or whether they're taking me seriously. 'And that's taken quite a lot of time to say, actually, I'm now known for my own achievements – you know, keeping the business going in COVID and growing the business, making new contracts and seeing the ticket sales for the Hungarian Grand Prix skyrocket. These are achievements I have to credit to myself; there's nobody else around to credit them to.' Times have definitely changed since Frank-Meulenbelt joined the top table in motorsport. Whereas once women in the sport tended to be hospitality and 'grid girls', they are now far more present at every level – from the C-suite down to the fans. Read more: I ditched waking up before 5am every day to grow my luxury bedding brand Much of this reflects wider societal changes, but it is also in large part down to Liberty Media's 2017 takeover of F1, which has seen the sport modernise its business model, expand its global reach and grow its fanbase. Under Liberty's leadership, F1 has also zoomed onto the screens of millions thanks to Netflix series Drive To Survive and thanks to the recently-released F1: The Movie, part of which was filmed at the Hungaroring. 'We'll see whether it's too much for the casual fan, but I think it'll give it the next big push,' she observes. 'The racing scenes are incredible.' As for the young women at the Hungaroring gates who may, one day, want to enter the F1 business… 'I think it's a great thing. And If they think I'm paving the way for them, that's great too.'Error in retrieving data Sign in to access your portfolio Error in retrieving data Error in retrieving data Error in retrieving data Error in retrieving data
