    Premier League to have TWO summer transfer windows for first time in history as new dates are revealed

    THE PREMIER League’s summer transfer window will be split in TWO after a club vote.Prem regulations state the summer window can last a maximum of 12 weeks, with the winter period lasting a maximum of one month.Signings can be announced from June 1Alexander Isak will be wanted by several clubs during the summerCredit: GettyBut new temporary transfer regulations introduced by Fifa to allow clubs to register new signings ahead of this summer’s expanded Club World Cup have forced a one-off change of rules.Contracts have traditionally expired on June 30, the “end” of the season, with players officially joining new clubs from July 1.But Fifa announced clubs involved in the 32-team tournament would be able to register new players between June 1 and June 10.And while Chelsea and Manchester City are the only Prem teams involved in this summer’s £770m competition in the USA, club chiefs agreed at their shareholder meeting in central London to align their own regulations with world chiefs.READ MORE IN FOOTBALLIn a statement, the Prem said: “Premier League clubs have today agreed the dates for the Summer 2025 Transfer Window.“The window will open early, between Sunday 1 June and Tuesday 10 June, due to an exceptional registration period relating to the FIFA Club World Cup.“It will then reopen on Monday 16 June and close on Monday 1 September.”The current rulebook, in place for this season, states that the summer window should start “at midnight on the date 12 weeks prior to the date on which it is to conclude”.Most read in FootballBEST ONLINE CASINOS – TOP SITES IN THE UKThat would have meant an opening to the window from June 9, although players moving clubs would not have been eligible to play for their new side until the start of July.But club bosses agreed that the 12-week maximum period should remain, bringing the decision to have two separate periods when deals can be made.Fans baffled as Donald Trump sends bizarre video message to pal ‘Jonny’ Infantino before Fifa Club World Cup drawThe confirmation of the September 1 closing date comes despite a majority of club sporting directors having signaled they wanted the window to shut BEFORE the start of the Prem campaign on the weekend of August 16.But club chiefs feared a repeat of what happened when a similar approach applied by the Prem in  isolation to the rest of Europe in 2018 led to clubs unable to replace players lost to clubs outside England in the final two weeks of the global window.Discussion over a window alignment between the Big Five leagues have been held in recent months but at this stage there is no agreement – although Germany’s Bundesliga is in favour.But it was agreed at today’s meeting that the Prem cannot go it alone again and that an early closure must be confirmed by all five major leagues before it is a feasible move.Martin Zubimendi of Real Sociedad is said to be a target for Arsenal and Man UtdCredit: RexChelsea and Man City are both set to be in Club World Cup actionCredit: AFPEkitike could be on his way from the BundesligaCredit: Rex More

    ‘They think he’s really good’ – Canelo Alvarez reveals he had to reassure his worried daughter about fighting Jake Paul

    CANELO ALVAREZ had to reassure even his youngest daughter that Jake Paul is no match for him. The Mexican boxing great was in line to face YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul on May 3 in Las Vegas. Canelo Alvarez with his youngest daughter MiaCredit: @fernandagmtzJake Paul was in talks to fight CaneloCredit: GettyThe deal eventually came to a dramatic collapse – but the shock mega-fight was the talk of playground for Canelo’s youngest daughter Mia. Canelo told SunSport in an exclusive interview: “Maybe her friends told her about the fight.”Because the fathers of her friends told them and everything talking about it – because they don’t know anything about boxing.”That kind of people don’t know anything about boxing and they think Jake Paul is really good fighter. Which he is a fighter, but it’s levels in boxing. READ MORE IN BOXING”And that’s why my daughter told me, ‘You’re gonna fight with Jake Paul?’ And I said, ‘He’s not on my level my love, don’t worry!’ “I think it’s for that fact that people don’t how boxing works.” Paul, 28, was closing in on a blockbuster deal to face Canelo, 34, in a 200lb cruiserweight clash the the T-Mobile Arena. But Canelo walked away at the 11th hour to instead sign a bumper four-bout deal with Saudi Arabia’s Turki Alalshikh.

And a super-fight against Terence Crawford, 37, is then due to follow in September. Jake Paul reveals talks for Tommy Fury rematch and slams Canelo Alvarez over failed fight Canelo faced losing out the Crawford bout if he had proceeded with the spectacle showdown against Paul – leaving him with no regrets. He said: “I’m very happy. Things happen for a reason and I’m happy with this and I’m gonna enjoy it as much as I can.”Paul has 11 wins and just one loss as a boxer – coming via split-decision against Tommy Fury in 2023. And he most recently caused controversy after bringing Mike Tyson out of retirement at the age of 58. But still a sensational 100 MILLION tuned in to watch the American’s eight-round points win on Netflix. So Canelo has not completely closed the door on Paul – although he struggles to even refer to it as a fight. He said: “Calling it a fight is very difficult for me, man. It’s for me more like event more than a fight and this is not the moment.”Jake Paul beat Mike Tyson in his last fightCredit: GettyCanelo fights William Scull next for the undisputed super-middleweight titlesCredit: Getty More

    Inside Liam Lawson and Yuki Tsunoda’s bitter six-year rivalry as Red Bull become first F1 team to axe driver this season

    THINGS are about to get a lot more awkward between long-term rivals Yuki Tsunoda and Liam Lawson.Habitually ruthless Red Bull have dropped Lawson for sister team driver Tsunoda after just TWO races of the 2025 season.Liam Lawson has been brutally ditched by Red BullCredit: RexLawson has been replaced by Japan’s Yuki TsunodaCredit: GettyLawson, 23, has been dumped by Red Bull chiefs after failing to get to grips with the RB21 during the Australian and Chinese Grands Prix.With the structure set up between Red Bull Racing and sister team Racing Bulls, driver rotations are possible among the four seats.Lawson’s nightmare season began with him dropping out in Q1 at the Aussie GP, before crashing out of the opening race in Melbourne.A week later, the Kiwi again qualified last in both the sprint and race for the Shanghai GP – despite sitting in the second-best car in F1 last season.READ MORE IN F1The RB21 might be tailored for Max Verstappen, but mustering a P15 finish in Shanghai was too much for team principal Christian Horner.Meanwhile, Tsunoda – who earns nearly double Lawson’s £800,000 salary – qualified fifth in Australia and ninth in China but finished outside of the top 10 for both races, due to strategy calls.The decision to overlook Tsunoda for Lawson when replacing Sergio Perez – who endured a nightmare 2024 season- before Christmas was a strange one.Having already spent four years in F1, Tsunoda is significantly more experienced than Lawson, who had entered only 11 grands prix in two short spells across 2023 and 2024.Most read in MotorsportCASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO BONUSES FROM £10 DEPOSITSTsunoda, 24, will be given a baptism of fire on home soil as he’ll officially replace Lawson at the Japanese Grand Prix next weekend.Meanwhile, the New Zealander will return to second team Racing Bulls as team-mate to French rookie Isack Hadjar.But there appears to be no love lost between Lawson and his replacement driver, who have known each other since their teens.SunSport takes a look inside their growing rivalry.Law and order showdownIn the past week, there has been a fiery war of words between the pair, who have raced each other all the way back to junior formula.Tsunoda was more than pleased when quizzed about a potential swap before the news was announced on Thursday.The Japanese star said: “Yeah, 100 per cent. The car is faster, I’m sure.”But a fuming Lawson hit back, saying: “He can say whatever he wants.”I’ve raced him for years, raced him in the junior categories and beat him. “If I look back over our careers, I was team mates with him in F3 and I beat him.“In Euroformula I was team mates with him, [and] in New Zealand, and I beat him there.“Then in F1 last season I think honestly, if I look at all the times he got promoted instead of me in those early years, then no.”He’s had his time. Now it’s my time.”Lawson cited his regular wins over Tsunoda as the reason being picked ahead of himCredit: GettyJunior yearsTsunoda and Lawson were team-mates many times during their junior careers.The New Zealander outscored Tsunoda in the 2019 Euroformula Open, where both drove for Motopark.The order was reversed in the FIA F3 series that year, though they drove for different teams.They faced each other again in the New Zealand Toyota Racing Series the following year. Lawson narrowly failed to reclaim the title he won the year before while Tsunoda, making his debut in the series, finished fourth.McLaren Racing CEO Zak Brown is among those who queried Red Bull’s decision to promote Lawson instead of Tsunoda.Lawson said he “couldn’t care less” about his opinion.He added: “I think he’s still hurt because I talked about his national anthem.” The pair have been team-mates in junior and senior teamsCredit: GettyRacing Bulls and AlphaTauriTsunoda had been at Red Bulls’ junior team AlphaTauri since 2021 -having been the top rookie in F2 – before his foe joined in 2023.AlphaTauri has since transitioned into Racing Bulls.They raced against each other in the latter stages of 2024 after Lawson replaced Daniel Ricciardo at the then-named RB team.The Japanese driver out qualified Lawson 6-0 and went 4-2 in their race finish head-to-head. Tsunoda was the 12th best driver on the grid last season, finishing with 30 points – which was 12 behind Pierre Gasly.Meanwhile, Lawson finished 21st, with a respectable four points picked up across his 11 races.The advantage on the timesheet lies with Tsunoda – perhaps inevitably, given he has raced in 89 F1 races compared to just 13 for his rival.Yuki Tsunoda will represent Red Bull in his home GP in Japan on April 6Horner’s Red Bull rejectsLawson will be advised that his demotion is an opportunity for him to rebuild his career, in the same way as earlier Red Bull rejects Gasly and Alex Albon have done.Gasly was demoted to the second Red Bull team after just half a season in 2019 in a swap with Albon, who was given a season and a half before being demoted to reserve driver in place of Perez.The Frenchman has since moved to Alpine and Albon to Williams, and both have thrived.Perez no longer has an F1 seat after being dropped at the end of last season with a multi-million pound pay-off.The decision to ace Lawson has been described as “performance-based” and the team’s “duty of care” to take him out of the firing line.Verstappen is second in the F1 Drivers’ Championship on 45 points, whereas Lawson has not scored any.Christian Horner said it was a ‘sporting decision’ to drop Lawson for TsunodaCredit: RexTeam principal Horner said: “It has been difficult to see Liam struggle with the RB21 at the first two races and as a result we have collectively taken the decision to make an early switch.”We came into the 2025 season with two ambitions: to retain the World Drivers’ Championship and to reclaim the World Constructors’ title, and this is a purely sporting decision.READ MORE SUN STORIES”We acknowledge there is a lot of work to be done with the RB21 and Yuki’s experience will prove highly beneficial in helping to develop the current car.”We have a duty of care to protect and develop Liam and together, we see that after such a difficult start, it makes sense to act quickly so Liam can gain experience as he continues his F1 career with Visa Cash App Racing Bulls, an environment and a team he knows very well.” More

    Footie fans reveal love of gallows humour as one in ten admit favourite chants are about their own team’s misfortune

    MORE than one in ten footie fans admit their favourite chants are the ones about their own team’s misfortune.From sarcastically celebrating a late consolation goal to poking fun at their own poor away record, 53 per cent of these fans believe self-deprecating songs of irony and wit are all part of the sport’s humour and culture.Football fans love chants about their own team’s misfortuneCredit: PASpecsavers have launched a team called Tunley AthleticThe team has been using a sports psychologistNearly half (46 per cent) believe it shows solidarity among supporters after a bad result.And 43 per cent also believe it helps to keep spirits high – even when their team are the underdogs.The research was commissioned by Specsavers for its ‘Best Worst Team’ campaign, which has enlisted Harry Redknapp to help turn around the fortunes of Somerset side Tunley Athletic.The latest episode of the series features Lioness and Manchester United record goalscorer Ella Toone giving the squad a lesson in winning silverware.READ MORE IN FOOTBALLThe research also revealed 62 per cent of fans believe singing at football matches can boost players’ motivation, while 44 per cent feel it keeps the team focused during the toughest moments.Sports psychologist Andy Lane, who partnered with Specsavers to arrange a masterclass in psychology and created five new chants for Tunley Athletic fans to belt out on match day, said: “Clubs see their fans as the 12th man, and a loud and supportive crowd is often the difference between victory and defeat.“Chants create a sense of unity and increases motivation and belief – it makes the team feel like they are playing for something bigger than just themselves and keeps them fighting until the final whistle.“If the opposition hears loud, unified chanting, it will undoubtedly shake their confidence and disrupt their focus.Most read in FootballBEST FREE BETS AND BETTING SIGN UP OFFERS“If we think back to the 2019 UEFA Champions League semi-final – Anfield’s electric atmosphere fuelled Liverpool’s historic 4-0 comeback after losing 3-0 in the first leg, it was the energy of the crowd that made it almost impossible for Barcelona to settle.“Whereas during the pandemic, when matches were played behind closed doors, the difference was dramatic.Mass of fuming Tottenham fans flood streets and chant ‘we want Levy out’ in biggest protest against club’s ownership“Liverpool’s 68-game unbeaten run at home ended and they lost six consecutive games – something that was once unthinkable.“Our hope is that these chants will make an impact and get the crowd behind Tunley.”The research also revealed 77 per cent of fans believe the use of chants would improve the atmosphere at grassroots games, according to the OnePoll.com figures.While 88 per cent feel music is an essential part of any football club’s identity – from topflight squads competing for a Champions League spot, to a struggling Sunday league side.Three-quarters (76 per cent) think it is the duty of the fans to chant for their team and create an atmosphere that pushes them forward, even when the odds are stacked against them.Professor Lane added: “I wanted to help the Tunley lads understand the power of mindset and the influence of their supporters.“In grassroots football, it’s not easy to replicate the high-energy environments you’d play in at a professional level, and smaller crowds and less fanfare can make it challenging for players to tap into that motivation.“It’s about fostering a sense of unity and belief and building an atmosphere that will give them a true home advantage.”Duncan Fear, who has been manager at Tunley Athletic for more than a decade, said: “We’ve faced a lot of challenges as a club over the last few years and it’s easy to lose focus when things just aren’t going our way.“Confidence is one of our biggest struggles, so to have Andy join our training session and give us a fresh mindset has been game changing.READ MORE SUN STORIES“It’s given us a new sense of belief, so we’re excited to see how it translates to better performances on the pitch.“We’ll be giving our fans something to really rally behind and put our new chants to the test.” More
