Martin Keown fires warning to Chelsea over Ethan Nwaneri transfer
Martin Keown has told Chelsea that they will fail in their attempt to sign Ethan Nwaneri from Arsenal. Nwaneri, who became the Premier League's youngest-ever player at 15 years and 181 days old with his first senior start for Arsenal in 2022, made 37 appearances in all competitions for Arteta's side last season. The 18-year-old has been tipped to become another Arsenal academy graduate to make a significant long-term impact in the first team, however, he has just a year left on his contract and could leave on a free transfer next summer if a new deal is not agreed. Chelsea have been already made an enquiry for Nwaneri during their negotiations over Arsenal's deal to sign Noni Madueke. Reports have also claimed that Nwaneri is considering his options due to concerns over his playing time in the upcoming campaign. Wake up to find news on your club in your inbox every morning with Metro's Football Newsletter. Sign up to our newsletter and then select your team in the link we'll send you so we can get football news tailored to you. However, Keown is adamant that Nwaneri will get an opportunity to impress under Arteta and there is 'no doubt' that the midfielder will extend his contract with Arsenal. 'I take you back to the [FA] Cup final that Arteta won… in that game who sat on the bench and didn't come on? Saka. That looked painful. Martinelli… a lot of people were crying out for him to make a start, but he [Arteta] does it when he thinks it's right,' Keown told talkSPORT. More Trending 'I think Nwaneri is on the same path. He is a wonderful talent. He's being protected by Arteta. 'It's not to do with ability, he will get his chance. Okay, maybe it's a bartering situation for the contract but I've met the family, the father, very calm, lovely family. 'He's an intelligent boy, he will eventually sign for Arsenal, there is no doubt about it. 'I just think he wants to make sure he plays football, and that is healthy. He's doing it for the right reasons, this young man. I believe he is going to be a superstar at Arsenal.' For more stories like this, check our sport page.

Former Mets star lists $30M ranch where now-infamous 'wild boar' injury took place
After officially retiring from his baseball playing days, a former New York Mets star is selling his mega mansion that was built around the corner from the team's spring training base. Former outfielder Yoenis Cespedes hasn't played in the MLB for five years and is now ready to let go of his massive mansion in Port St. Lucie, Florida - at the price of $30million. Sitting on 400 acres, Cespedes' sprawling home features creature comforts and lavish luxuries. However, Mets fans will remember this house as the site of a well-publicized run-in with a wild boar that led to the star missing playing time. Called 'La Potencia II' (translated to 'The Power'), the 16,000-square-foot main residence features six bedrooms and five bathrooms. Additionally, on the inside, you'll find a massive main living room with a fire place, a massive eat-in kitchen, a games room with a pool table, and an extravagant all-glass wine room next to an ornate bar. Multiple other living rooms are dotted throughout the residence - which also features the likes of walk-in closets and elegant bathrooms. Outside, there's a gorgeous patio - complete with its own kitchen, eating space, and a wet bar. There's also a decadent heated pool - with a separate hot tub and an attached water feature. But there's also plenty of features that indicate this was the home of a professional athlete. Not only is there a stocked barber shop, there's also a well-equipped gym as well as a separate batting cage. Finally, when you step out of the enclosure, you'll find a stable for 12 horses as well as a training facility for the equine creatures attached to the property. Of course, Mets fans remember this mansion as the site of an infamous injury that Cespedes sustained from a 'wild boar' in 2019. While the Mets general manager at the time said that Cespedes sustained a broken ankle in a 'violent fall', it was later reported that the two-time All-Star actually had a run-in with the wild animal. Cespedes tried mounting an MLB comeback in 2024, but that was unsuccessful. The 39-year-old won a Gold Glove award, a Silver Slugger award, and two Home Run Derby competitions throughout his eight year career in the majors.

Asante Samuel Sr. blows up son's potential Miami Dolphins move by torching coach Mike McDaniel
Asante Samuel Jr.'s potential move to the Dolphins could be off after his Super Bowl-winning dad blasted Miami coach Mike McDaniel. Back in May, the Miami Herald reported that the Dolphins had called to inquire about cornerback Samuel Jr. in free agency, and the team has even more of a need at the position now after trading away Jalen Ramsey. But in discussing that move on his podcast, former Patriots, Eagles and Falcons star Samuel Sr. ripped the Dolphins - and potentially scuppered his son's chances of signing there. 'The Dolphins had no reason to trade Jalen Ramsey other than they're sensitive, there's no leadership in the Dolphins organization,' Samuel said recently ' Say What Needs To Be Said', via the New York Post. 'Mike McDaniel is a pushover. Chris Grier, the general manager, he has no backbone. These guys over here, the Miami Dolphins, they are running this team like a little league team. No one can stand up to the players. They are terrified of their own players and they have no control over their players.' The Dolphins' trade of Ramsey to the Steelers was seemingly an attempt to gain back that sort of control, as the defensive back was accused afterwards of some less-than-stellar conduct with the team. The Sun-Sentinel wrote that Ramsey displayed 'disruptive' behavior which had begun to 'hurt the culture' of the franchise. Specifically, the outlet claimed that that Ramsey and receiver Tyreek Hill were 'constantly late for practices or meetings.' Hill remains on the team's roster after declaring 'I'm out' following the last game of the regular season, though he continues to be linked with a trade out of South Beach. As part of Ramsey's trade to the Steelers, the Dolphins also sent Jonnu Smith to Pittsburgh in exchange for Minkah Fitzpatrick and a pick swap. More specifically, the Dolphins will send a 2027 seventh-rounder to Pittsburgh in exchange for a fifth-rounder that year. Samuel Jr. has established himself as a starting-caliber cornerback since being drafted by the Chargers in the second round of the 2021 NFL Draft. He's started 47 games (of 50 total), though he played just four games last season due to injury. He reportedly underwent neck injury in April. McDaniel has been a polarizing figure since taking over for the Dolphins in 2022. The player-friendly coach has seen his team produce some explosive offense performances with Tua Tagovailoa healthy, though he's 0-2 in the playoffs and saw his team miss the postseason last year. He has a 28-23 record in Miami.
