Ireland's first female track-and-field Olympian Kyle dies at 96
July 23 (Reuters) - Maeve Kyle, Ireland's first female track-and-field Olympian, has died at the age of 96, the Olympic Federation of Ireland said on Wednesday. Kyle, who also earned more than 50 caps for the Irish national hockey team, appeared in the Melbourne 1956 Olympics, competing in the 100m and 200m races, becoming the first Irishwoman to compete in the discipline at the Games. "She competed at three consecutive Olympic Games... at a time when women had to overcome huge prejudice and when opportunities in international athletics were extremely limited," the OFI said in a statement. Kyle reached the semi-finals in both 400m and 800m races at the Tokyo Olympics in 1964. She won bronze in 400m at the European Indoor Athletics Championships two years later. "We have lost a legend of Irish Olympic sport who rose to the top despite huge challenges in 1950s Ireland. She was an inspiration to us all," said OFI President Lochlann Walsh.

Ireland striker Evan Ferguson joins AS Roma in loan move
Ireland striker Evan Ferguson has joined AS Roma on a season-long loan from Brighton & Hove Albion, the Serie A club said on Wednesday, with the 20-year-old looking to kick-start his career after a couple of uninspiring seasons. "Roma are delighted to announce the signing of Evan Ferguson from Brighton & Hove Albion. Ferguson will join Roma on loan with an option to buy," Roma said in a statement. Advertisement Ferguson joined Brighton from Dublin club Bohemians in January 2021 at the age of 16, making his senior debut in August of that year under Graham Potter. ✍ Evan Ferguson is a new Roma player! 🐺 📄 #ASRoma — AS Roma English (@ASRomaEN) July 23, 2025 The 2022-23 campaign marked his breakthrough, with Ferguson scoring 10 goals in 25 appearances across all competitions and earning his senior debut for Ireland. But injuries soon disrupted his momentum. A cruciate ligament tear cut short his 2023-24 season, a campaign where Ferguson netted a hat-trick against Newcastle United in September but saw him struggle to hold down a regular starting place under Roberto De Zerbi. Last season, after failing to impress new Brighton boss Fabian Hurzeler, Ferguson went on loan to West Ham United in February, making only one start in eight goalless appearances under former Brighton manager Potter. Advertisement Ferguson will now look to revive his form under Roma's new manager Gian Piero Gasperini, who previously transformed Atalanta from relegation contenders into a top-four Serie A side – while also rejuvenating the careers of numerous players. 🤳 A message from Evan… #ASRoma — AS Roma English (@ASRomaEN) July 23, 2025 Sport Evan Ferguson ignored the critics during his goal... Read More Gasperini's record of turning inconsistent strikers – including Duvan Zapata, Luis Muriel, Ademola Lookman and Gianluca Scamacca – into prolific scorers offers real hope for Ferguson as he seeks a fresh start in the Italian capital. There has certainly been plenty of optimism in Rome around Ferguson's arrival, with Monday's Il Romanista newspaper featuring the striker on the front page alongside the headline 'The Irishman'. Ferguson looked taken aback on Sunday as he arrived at Ciampino airport, where a large group of Roma fans were already chanting his name and clamouring for autographs, all before he had even completed his medical or signed a contract.
