Forest signed the Bindon from Reading in January, but immediately loaned him back to the League One club to see out the season in Berkshire.
"Ruben is a great person and coach, and I feel I can still learn so much more from him, it will be special to do that here at United," Bindon told the Blades website.

Serena Williams & Alexis Ohanian's Daughters Are the Sweetest Daddy's Girls in a Heart-Melting New Photo
Girl dads have a special kind of bond with their daughters, and Serena Williams' husband Alexis Ohanian is the perfect example. He showers their girls Olympia, 7, and Adira, 22 months, with love. A heart-melting new photo prove they are Daddy's girls through and through, and we've never seen anything sweeter! 'London morning with my girls,' the Reddit co-founder shared on Instagram today. He added, 'Also stopped by the women's sports store pop-up—Up The Chels!' More from SheKnows Chrissy Teigen's Daughter Esti Had the Cutest Reaction to Lunchtime in a New Video & It's Such a Vibe In the first photo, Ohanian walks toward the London Eye, holding his daughters in his arms. Adira's hair is up in two space buns on top of her head, as she turns her head and rests on her dad's shoulder. Olympia hangs out on her dad's other shoulder, with one arm around his back and the other arm around her sister. She leans forward to rest on his shoulder in the cutest snap. He also shared photos from the pop-up shop, featuring a jersey by Lucy Bronze of the Chelsea Women Football Club, of which Ohanian is a minor investor. In the comments, people praised this outing, focused on father-daughter bonding time and supporting women's sports. 'You are the epitome of a well-rounded man. A devoted husband, an incredible father, and a driven, accomplished businessman. Your heart is as big as your ambition. We can see it!! Well Done!' one person commented. 'This is what a real man looks like – devoted father, not afraid of his wife's success, and pursuing causes and investments to make the world a better place,' someone else wrote. In May, Ohanian and Williams brought Olympia to a Chelsea game at Wembley, where they won the Treble. The tech founder told BBC, 'That is what we're trying to build here with Chelsea Women — not just to be the best team, but truly the best team in all of women's sports. This will be a billion dollar franchise one day and beyond, and I hope my dollars — or should I say my pounds! — can go towards that in a big way. This is going to be America's team.' He also shared that while his girls are active like their mom, they will be encouraged to do whatever they want when they grow up. 'Both those girls are active. Olympia's definitely been playing a lot of tennis and she plays golf too,' Ohanian gushed. 'I've definitely been trying to get her into soccer, but whatever she wants she'll be great. She's very excited to be a Blues fan.' A loving dad and a supportive man? We love to see it!Best of SheKnows July 4th Printable Coloring Pages to Keep Kids Busy All Day It's That Damn Phone: A Parent's Guide to Gen Z Dating in the Digital Age, From a Gen Z-er The Summer College Prep Tips No One Talks About — But Every Teen Needs

Rookies provide bright spot for rusty All Blacks
New Zealand's Fabian Holland (C) secures the ball during the first international rugby Test match between New Zealand and France at Forsyth Barr Stadium in Dunedin (Sanka Vidanagama) The biggest smile on All Blacks coach Scott Robertson's face after a lacklustre season-opening victory over France came when he recalled the performance of his four rookies. Dutch giant Fabian Holland and No 8 Christian Lio-Willie started the match, with 22-year-old lock Holland playing the full 80 minutes. Advertisement "He could have played 100 minutes," Robertson said, celebrating Holland's "huge engine". Prop Ollie Norris and flanker Du'Plessis Kirifi joined from the bench, providing a spark which helped the team home. The quartet were the undoubted bright spots in a rusty New Zealand performance against a France side boasting eight rookies -- and written off as a supposed "B-team". Holland grew up in the Dutch town of Castricum, near Amsterdam, where his old friends gathered at a rugby club to celebrate his New Zealand debut. "My best mates that I grew up with organised a morning brunch there," Holland said. Advertisement "A Dutch morning brunch, with a few pints of course. "I haven't checked my phone yet, but I'll probably end up calling my best mates from back home and just have a yarn with them. "They always try and watch every game at my grassroots club, Castricumse Rugby Club, so to have them in my corner is pretty special." - 'Unwashed' jersey - Holland was solid if unspectacular in his All Black debut. The 204-centimetre (6ft7) lock towered over his teammates during the national anthems. He smiled warmly as he remembered the home he left at 14, pursuing an unlikely path to the coveted black jersey. Advertisement "They have a New Zealand under-20s jersey (in the clubrooms), so I try to give back to the club there," Holland said. "They shaped me into the person that I am today, into the rugby player, helped me find my passion for rugby, so I owe them a lot. "Whenever I'm back home I just try to get around the kids, help out with a few training drills and be as approachable as I can. "I don't know, (an under-20s jersey is) probably not enough for what they've done for me, but hopefully they know how much the club means to me." Holland said his first All Blacks jersey would take pride of place at his family home. Advertisement Fellow rookie Kirifi fronted media after the match with blood staining his forehead, ears, chin and the white collar of his jersey. "It's going to get framed and that's probably going to go to my dad," Kirifi said, in reference to his first Test jersey. "Unwashed." Kirifi said Test match rugby had been a huge step up. "Yeah, it was very tough," he said. "I'm not sure if there was a gap there for me, because I got smoked by a couple of big French boys at one stage there. "But sometimes you're going to be running into a brick wall. "But you expect absolutely nothing less. That's international rugby." bes/sft/sco

Van Gisbergen extends NASCAR Chicago street dominance
When it comes to NASCAR's street course in downtown Chicago, there is Shane van Gisbergen, and then there is everyone else. The three-time Supercars champion from New Zealand claimed pole for Sunday's Grant Park 165 NASCAR Cup race and also won the second-tier Xfinity race from the pole on Saturday. The 36-year-old turned a lap at 88.338 mph on the tricky 2.2-mile course to qualifying fastest. Shane van Gisbergen becomes the 2nd driver in NASCAR Cup Series history to win their first three poles on road courses:Dan GurneyShane van Gisbergen — NASCAR Insights (@NASCARInsights) July 5, 2025 "Practice wasn't that great for us, but when we went out for qualifying, the car felt really good," van Gisbergen said. "We turned in two pretty good laps." Van Gisbergen won the Xfinity Series race when he outdueled Connor Zilisch in the final laps. "I learned a lot in the Xfinity Series car this morning, and that just gives you a great leg up for the Cup car," he said before the Xfinity win. "I think it's great running both cars, it certainly helps." An impeccable start to @shanevg97's double-duty weekend. — NASCAR (@NASCAR) July 5, 2025 Just two years ago, van Gisbergen raced to a historic victory in a rainy first edition of NASCAR's downtown Chicago experiment. Making the most of his extensive street racing experience, he became the first driver to win his Cup Series debut since Johnny Rutherford in the second qualifying race at Daytona in 1963. He also won Chicago's Xfinity Series stop last year and the first stage in the Cup race before he was knocked out by a crash.
