📸 Yet again: Nico Williams mural vandalised once more

Yahoo5 hours ago

First, it happened once. Athletic fixed it, and 24 hours later it was vandalized again. And this Sunday, it has happened once more. Nico Williams' mural has once again been the target of an attack.
This time, the individuals who attacked the mural left a message: "Nico, leave. We will always defend our badge at all times."

This is not the first act of vandalism against the mural. Earlier this month, it was cleaned after being marked with insults, only to be attacked again with blue paint amid rumors about the younger Williams possibly moving to the Catalan club.
The repeated incidents suggest a growing rift between the player and some fans, who see his possible departure as a betrayal of the club's values. A tension that helps none of the parties involved in this case.

Fabrizio Romano Says Arsenal Agree to Personal Terms With PSG, Real Madrid Target

PSG could be preparing for a transfer showdown with Arsenal, AC Milan, Juventus, and Real Madrid over one of Spain's most promising young defenders. However, it's the Gunners who have reached the second stage with the player agreeing to personal terms. Despite boasting one of the best defenses in Ligue 1, PSG's backline is starting to show signs of wear after a long season. Lucas Hernandez is playing but still coming off a serious injury, and while Marquinhos remains a vital leader, he's not quite as explosive as he once was. Advertisement Presnel Kimpembe continues to be an influential presence in the locker room, but his availability remains uncertain in both the short and mid-term. Luis Enrique sees real potential in Lucas Beraldo, though the Brazilian is still viewed more as a depth option than a consistent starter. PSG could miss out on defensive targetOn Sunday, transfer expert Fabrizio Romano revealed that Arsenal have agreed on personal terms with Christian Mosquera. After Valencia rejected Arsenal's initial €14 million bid, the club is preparing a new offer—the Premier League side hope to complete the deal for a fee over €20 million, with talks currently ongoing. Marca has reported that Real Madrid are already weighing their options for next summer's free agents. Arsenal left-back Myles Lewis-Skelly and Mosquera are among the names on their radar.

A key player for Valencia, the Alicante native could be sold by the club to boost its finances. Nonetheless, it seems Arsenal have the upper hand in this race and if they present an offer that satisfies Valencia, then the Gunners will come away with the talented young defender.

England hit Jamaica for seven in perfect Euros preparation

England's women warmed up for their title defence at Euro 2025 with a 7-0 demolition of Jamaica on Sunday at Leicester's King Power Stadium. The Lionesses were looking to gather some momentum before they face a tough opener against France in Switzerland next Saturday. Advertisement Ella Toone struck twice either side of Lucy Bronze's header to give Sarina Wiegman's side a commanding half-time lead. Georgia Stanway, Alessia Russo, Aggie Beever-Jones and Beth Mead were on target after the break. But the biggest cheer of the night was arguably reserved for Lauren James as the Chelsea star played her first minutes since suffering a hamstring injury in April as a second-half substitute. James, sister of Chelsea men's captain Reece James, is likely to be key if England are to defend their crown as European champions. England's preparation for the tournament had been rocked by the shock international retirement of goalkeeper Mary Earps and Millie Bright, who had captained the side to the World Cup final in 2023, withdrawing due physical and emotional fatigue. Advertisement But Wiegman said she is excited at what a blend of new faces and experienced winners from Euro 2022 can produce. "I think there is huge potential in this squad and we have many options," said the Dutch coach. "I am most of all excited about the team. We've had two weeks of training and it was really good. You can feel the fight and we want to go to the Euros and play." England also face Euro 2017 champions the Netherlands and tournament debutants Wales in Group D. kca/dmc

Lionesses hammer Jamaica in final pre-Euro test

England rounded off their Euro 2025 preparations in style on Sunday, comfortably brushing aside Jamaica 7–0 in their final warm-up match before heading to Switzerland to defend their European crown. Jamaica posed little threat throughout and England were already 3–0 up at the break. Ella Toone opened the scoring in the 10th minute with a lovely placed finish from the edge of the box - her first goal in an England shirt since February. Advertisement Lucy Bronze doubled the lead just after the half-hour mark, heading in a pinpoint cross from Jess Carter. Toone added her second before the break, curling one in off the post. After half-time, the Lionesses eased off slightly in the warm evening conditions, but the goals kept coming. Georgia Stanway smashed in number four from close range, before Sarina Wiegman began to rotate the squad. Lauren James made her return from injury, replacing Toone, while Chloe Kelly and Esme Morgan also came on. James made an instant impact, delivering a delightful cross for Alessia Russo to head in England's fifth. Substitute Aggie Beever-Jones was denied by a fine save after another excellent James delivery but made no mistake shortly after, tapping in England's sixth. There was a moment of concern late on when Beth Mead went down clutching her knee, but she returned to the pitch and still had time to get herself on the scoresheet with a stoppage-time strike to round off the night.
