The Nicolas Kuhn Celtic transfer question I got answer to the minute I set eyes on George Clooney's favourite escape
Our man Michael Gannon is with the Hoops in a specular spot in Northern Italy and they ramp up their pre-season preparations 'So Nicolas Kuhn, what was it that attracted you to a move to Como?' After just a few hours in these parts, there's no need for the now ex- Celtic star to answer. Yeah, the German probably has some football and financial reasons, the chance to make a few quid and play in Serie A sounds good enough. But one look at this town and it's easy to see why he jumped at the chance. Listen, Glasgow's great and all that, it's home sweet home to plenty of us, but not Kuhn. And when he clapped eyes on this Italian oasis, no one could blame him for giving it a bash. Como is absolutely sensational. George Clooney has a gaff up the road from here and the big man has the right idea. It's like a movie set and a postcard at the same time. Celtic have been to some nice pre-season spots over the years, but it's hard to top this one for scenery. There's also a real football flavour in the town. This Como Cup might be a friendly tournament but the area has gone to town on it. There are posters everywhere, a fan zone down by Lake Como which must have the most spectacular five-a-side pitch in the world. Not far from there is the Studio Guiseppe Sinigaglia – which is a goal kick away from the water. It's a bit like Gayfield in Arbroath – without the 50mph freezing wind – and rather than a fun fare next door, it's a millionaires' playground. There can't be many more stunning stadiums in the entire world. There can't be many better preseason trips for fans either. A fair few are starting to filter into the area ahead of Thursday night's clash with Ajax. There are always tell tale signs. The local funicular – the wee tram that takes folk up the hill to see some of the best views on the planet – was shuffling on its way up and right at the front there was an away shirt with 'McGregor' on the back. It was a young fan rather than the actual Hoops captain but it wasn't long before plenty of other supporters were spotted wandering around town with their jaws open at the sights. They'd love to see a few new signings as well, mind you… perhaps Clooney can do a job on the wing. In the meantime they might feel right at home. This place was run by the original Celts until the Romans marched in, like they do. Julius Caesar eventually named it and the rest is history. This has always been on of Europe's top tourist traps but the local team has struggled through the years, mainly due to being just up the road from the Milan giants. But it's certainly in business these days, with a rise to the top from Serie D thanks to new investment and now with a glamour boss in Cesc Fabregas. No wonder Kuhn found all this appealing. Unlike old Benito Mussolini. The Italian dictator met his end in these parts, arrested around Lake Como in Dongo, he was eventually executed the next day down the road in Tremezzina. It's a touchy subject these days, so Celtic fans might need to tread carefully with the transfer chat – given the Hoops are looking for a right winger…

How Venus Williams revealed her engagement at DC Open
Venus Williams revealed she is engaged to actor Andrea Preti on July 22 after playing her first singles match in more than a year. Williams confirmed the news in a post-match interview at the Mubadala Citi DC Open. 'My fiancé is here and he really encouraged me to keep playing,' Williams told WTA of Preti. 'There were so many times where I just wanted to coast and kind of chill,' she continued and laughed. 'Do you know how hard it is to play tennis? You guys don't know how much work goes into this, like it's 9 to 5 except you're running the whole time, lifting weights and just like dying and then you repeat it the next day. So he encouraged me to get through this and it's wonderful to be here. He's never seen me play.' Williams and Preti were first spotted together in July 2024, and the pair sparked engagement rumors when Williams was seen with a ring on her left hand in February 2025. Though the couple has kept most of their relationship private, both have been in the public eye, with Preti, a former model, also taking a turn at acting, starring in multiple projects including the Italian TV series 'A Professor.' Williams weighed in on her relationship status back in 2021 when she was on the cover of Cosmopolitan, saying she loved the freedom her life allowed at the time. 'I have a lot of friends who don't believe me when I say that I like my life and I don't want to change it for any reason. I'm not desperate and they don't believe me,' she said. 'They say things like, 'You're going to miss your window,' ' Williams added. 'I'm like, 'Please, relax. You might feel this way, but I don't. I promise you I don't.'' Williams won her match at the DC Open against Peyton Stearns, 6-3, 6-4, her first singles win in almost two years, and will face off against Magdalena Fręch in the next round on July 24. The seven-time Grand Slam champion had taken time off to treat her uterine fibroids, which she spoke about on TODAY earlier this month. 'Fibroids impacted my career,' she said. 'I never had enough energy most times to play a real match the way I wanted to, and, of course, it affected my results.' Williams, 45, started to research treatment last summer after seeing a post about fibroids on social media. After some hesitation due to having her symptoms dismissed by other doctors in the past, Williams underwent a myomectomy, removing her fibroids without removing her uterus, which she said has improved her quality of life. 'Hopefully someone will see this interview and say, 'I can get help. I don't have to live this way,'' Williams said. 'I'm very passionate about this at this point in time because I know that other people can live better than what I lived.'
