Moses Itauma, 20, lined up for sensational world title fight against Oleksandr Usyk this yearHis promoter Frank Warren has already warned not to rule out a world title fight in the future with Usyk, 38. Meanwhile Martin Bakole, 31, and Filip Hrgovic, 32, are two others on Itauma’s radar. Warren told BoxNation: “Billy Nelson (trainer of Bakole) sent me a text about him making the fight at the end of the year or next year.“Moses is not sitting around waiting for him, is he? He’s gonna get on with his business and who knows, I would expect by the end of this year for Moses to have at least another three fights. “I haven’t got to drum up Bakole in my job, I’m in the Moses Itauma business and that’s all I care about.  “I think that’s [Itauma and Hrgovic] also a good fight to make. I wouldn’t have a problem doing that sometime this year.”Itauma is tipped for greatness in the heavyweight divisionCredit: PA More

      Rangers takeover deal with US investors AGREED in principle

      by

      A DEAL has been agreed in principle between Rangers and the American consortium who want to take over the club.Paraag Marathe of 49ers Enterprises, the business arm of the San Francisco 49ers, has been engaged in talks with Ibrox power brokers for some time now over potential investment, working alongside insurance tycoon Andrew Cavenagh.Marathe and the 49ers also own Leeds United but with the EFL and the SFA unlikely to stand in their way, a deal for them to complete a stunning takeover of the Glasgow giants has been agreed.Cavenagh is chairman of health firm ParetoHealth and he and Marathe are aiming to acquire a controlling stake in Gers, of around 51 per cent.It’s understood that all parties are confident the deal will be agreed before the start of the new season.All that remains now is for due diligence to take place and legal paperwork to be drafted up, though the SFA and EFL consent will be required to rubber-stamp any proposal.Current Gers shareholders Dave King and John Bennett have already agreed to sell up with a view to welcoming the Americans on board.Fellow directors Douglas Park, George Taylor, Stuart Gibson, Julian Wolhardt and John Halsted could all be convinced to sell their shares too.Halsted and non-executive director Alastair Johnston have ties to the US and they have been crucial in talks getting to this stage.Marathe has been with the NFL giants for 24 years and has a close relationship with its billionaire chief, Jed York.Most read in FootballThe franchise was valued at around $6billion by Forbes recently and has won five Super Bowl titles in its history.The last of those wins came prior to Marathe’s involvement but the team has reached the Super Bowl three times since he has been a key decision maker.Rangers and Celtic fans react to news away fans are BACK at Old Firm gamesWho owns Rangers?

The franchise was originally owned by Tony Morabito, one of its founders.Cultural impact: The 49ers are a symbol of Bay Area pride and have a dedicated fanbase known as the “Faithful.” The team has also been featured in various films, books, and media, cementing its place in American sporting culture.Keep up to date with ALL the latest news and transfers at the Scottish Sun football page More

      Rangers at centre of advanced talks over stunning San Francisco 49ers takeover

      by

      SAN FRANCISCO 49ers chief Paraag Marathe is part of a US-led Rangers takeover bid.The NFL supremo is involved in a consortium hoping to take control of the Ibrox club.Paraag Marathe, President of 49ers EnterprisesCredit: GettyMarathe speaks out at Levis StadiumCredit: GettyLeeds United chairman Marathe and fellow US business figures have held detailed talks with the Gers hierarchy in recent months.SunSport understands current board member, the American John Halsted, has been a prominent figure in bringing potential investors to the table.And this could lead to the 49ers being part of a major multi-million pound investment – should a deal be struck.Ibrox sources insist there are still plenty of hurdles to overcome as high-level discussions continue.But there is hope that an agreement can be reached with the US investors to kick off a new era at Gers.The consortium see huge potential in the Ibrox club, with possible access to the Champions League a reward for domestic success.They also view Scottish football as a prime environment to bring in young talent and adopt a successful player-trading model.Marathe heads up the 49ers Enterprises arm – which seeks to ‘oversee outside business ventures, advisory efforts, and major investment opportunities for the club’.Most read in FootballHe is also Executive VP of Football Operations for the NFL giants.Marathe orchestrated the 49ers’ takeover of Leeds in 2023 after years of investment and is driving their bid for Premier League promotion.Under the SFA’s dual ownership stance, this could limit the 49ers’ ability to snap up a Gers shareholding of over 29.9 per cent – the amount Bournemouth supremo Bill Foley was allowed to control in Hibs.Deebo Samuel facing major San Francisco 49ers punishment after taking a swing at his own teammates in shocking scenes However, there are other US investors keen to plunge money into Gers as part of a wider consortium.These figures believe Marathe’s experience of British football can be of huge significance as part of a potential deal to revive Rangers.And the 49ers – bankrolled by the York family – could extend their portfolio by investing in the Ibrox giants.Speaking at the club’s AGM last year, interim chairman John Gilligan made it clear that Rangers were open to a cash injection.The Ibrox club are currently strapped for cash after posting a £17.2million loss last year.Boss Philippe Clement was limited to just one loan signing in January, with runaway league leaders Celtic favourites to complete another Treble.The Lowdown: The San Francisco 49ersEverything you need to know about the San Francisco 49ersFounded: Established in 1946 as part of the AAFC; joined the NFL in 1949.Team Name Origin: Named after the prospectors of the 1849 California Gold Rush.Location: Based in the San Francisco Bay Area; home games played at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara.Team Colours: Red, gold, and white, representing the Gold Rush heritage.Super Bowl Success: Five-time Super Bowl champions (1981, 1984, 1988, 1989, 1994 seasons).Key Players in History: Legends include Joe Montana, Jerry Rice, Steve Young, and Ronnie Lott.Hall of Fame: Many inductees, including Bill Walsh, Joe Montana, Jerry Rice, and Steve Young.The West Coast Offence: Known for popularising Bill Walsh’s innovative passing strategy in the 1980s.Rivalries: Major rivalries with the Dallas Cowboys, Green Bay Packers, Seattle Seahawks, and Los Angeles Rams.Community Impact: Active in charity and youth programmes through the 49ers Foundation.But back in December, Gilligan promised fans that change was coming.He told shareholders: “There is fresh investment coming into the club.“The current investors have invested considerably over the years and are willing to do so again.“We are open to anyone who approaches us on investment.“We get approaches from all over the world from various sources.“But it has to be the right people and the right conditions and for the right amount of shares.San Francisco quarter back Brock Purdy“We don’t want one person owning the club.”Rangers’ current shareholding group is varied – with former chairman Dave King still owning around 13 per cent.Douglas Park, George Taylor, Stuart Gibson and John Bennett also have a significant amount of shares.It’s believed several of them would be willing to cut a deal for the right price, if they felt it was in the best interests of the club. The Rangers board already has strong American ties, with non-executive director Alastair Johnston vice chairman of US-based IMG – a leading sports and entertainment group.Wyoming-based Halsted became a Gers investor in 2021 through Perron Investments, LLC.There’s been a spate of tie-ins between the US sport and British football with Tom Brady is the co-owner of a Birmingham City side which has many ex-Gers stars on the payroll in the form of Scott Wright, Ben Davies and Kieran Dowell.READ MORE SUN STORIESJJ Watt is a minority investor in a Burnley side which currently sits third in the EFL Championship table.
