De olho nos destaques da Série B, o Palmeiras sondou a situação de Vinícius Zanocelo, da Ponte Preta. Aos 19 anos e com convocação para a Seleção Brasileira sub-20, o jovem despertou interesse da direção alviverde para reforçar as categorias de base, que vendo sendo utilizada intensamente por Abel Ferreira. A informação foi primeiramente noticiada pelo portal ‘ge’.
A Ponte Preta nega que haja uma procura oficial do Verdão, mas pessoas ligadas ao atleta confirmaram ao NOSSO PALESTRA/LANCE! que o jogador conta com o desejo do Alviverde Imponente e que isso já é conhecido – e rebatido na Ponte Preta.
Sem condições legais de inscrição no Brasileirão, cuja data já expirou, o Palmeiras pensa em Zanocelo como uma possibilidade à base ou até mesmo para ser contratado na próxima janela entre temporadas. Com capacidade para atuar nas mais diversas funções do meio campo, o jovem de 19 anos se encaixa no perfil polivalente que agrada ao Verdão.

Everton are one of three clubs in England who have deployed chiefs to watch an exciting teenage sensation live in action, if a fresh report is to be believed.
Everton form this season
In the Premier League, Sean Dyche’s side have made a disappointing start to the new campaign having secured just two wins, one draw and six defeats from their opening nine fixtures, and here is how those matches have played out so far:
Victories
Draws
Losses
Brentford (3-1)
Sheffield United (2-2)
Fulham (1-0)
Bournemouth (3-0)
Aston Villa (4-0)
Wolves (1-0)
Arsenal (1-0)
Luton Town (2-1)
Liverpool (2-0)
Despite signing Beto, Youssef Chermiti, Ashley Young, Arnaut Danjuma and Jack Harrison over the summer, it looks as if the boss still needs to strengthen his ranks further in January should he want to avoid being in danger of relegation again, and he’s set his sights on someone not that far from home.
At Inver Park, Larne FC’s attacking midfielder Dylan Sloan has worked his way up through his club’s academy ranks to get promoted to their first team where he’s so far made a total of 25 appearances across all age levels (Transfermarkt – Sloan statistics).
Northern Ireland's youth international, who is just 19 years of age, has previously twice been sent out on development loans to Knockbreda and Newry City, and the progress that he’s making in his career has caught the eye of the manager at Goodison Park.
Dylan Sloan transfer update
According to Football Insider who have shared a transfer update on Dylan Sloan, Everton, Leicester City and Stoke City are set to battle it out to secure the services of the talented prospect in January, with scouts blown away by the teenager.
“Everton, Leicester City and Stoke City are among the sides plotting to sign Irish sensation Dylan Sloan, sources have told Football Insider.
"The likes of Everton, Leicester and Stoke have sent scouts to make regular checks on Sloan as they weigh up potential moves for the Northern Ireland Under-19 international.
"They are all compiling detailed dossiers on him as, one source says, “he has blown their scouts away”."
Due to Sloan still being a teenager, it’s unknown whether Everton would throw him in at the deep end in terms of handing him a place in the senior squad, but with five contributions (three goals and two assists) to his name since the start of his career, he is a “composed” player, as per journalist Josh Bunting.
The Newtownards native is also a versatile operator having been deployed in defensive, central and attacking midfield since first bursting onto the professional scene, so he may well be able to easily adapt to Dyche’s demands should he ever want to alter his formation or team selection on Merseyside, although initially, he could be brought in as a player for the future.
Furthermore, Sloan has already had a taste of what it’s like to compete and be successful at a high level having been crowned the 2022/23 Northern Irish Champion, so he could be able to pass his winning mentality onto the rest of the current squad in years to come, should he in the near future put pen to paper for the Toffees.
Cockbain smashed 123 off 61 balls, including 96 in boundaries, to help his side reach 242 for four, Gloucestershire’s best ever T20 total at Bristol

ScorecardIan Cockbain hit his maiden T20 century and the second highest score ever by a Gloucestershire batsman in the competition as Middlesex were put to the sword in a one-sided Vitality Blast game at Bristol.Cockbain smashed 123 off 61 balls, including 96 in boundaries, to help his side reach 242 for four, their best ever T20 total at Bristol, and secure a 70-run victory.Michael Klinger, Kieran Noema-Barnett and Jack Taylor gave valuable support. But it was all about Cockbain, who went in with the total 7 for 1 in the second over and holed out to long-on off the final ball of the innings.In reply, Middlesex could manage only 172 for 6 as their miserable Vitality Blast campaign continued. Stevie Eskinazi top scored with 51, while medium-pacer Noema-Barnett claimed three for 18 from four overs, his best T20 figures.Talking T20 Podcast: About time Rikki Clarke replaced Stokes?

Middlesex skipper Dawid Malan, axed by England for the Lord’s Test, instead found unhappy memories resurfacing of another Gloucestershire run spree against Middlesex seven years ago. He said: “That was Gloucestershire’s second highest T20 total and I remember their best because it was against us and I was captain then too!”Gloucestershire will be concerned that Klinger did not field because of a back spasm and Graeme van Buuren has also injured a hamstring, but even that did not take the gloss of Cockbain’s innings.”I don’t think I have ever struck the ball cleaner,” he said, “which is strange because I haven’t been hitting the ball that well in the last couple of weeks. It helped that the Middlesex bowlers didn’t get it quite right on the night and allowed me to hit to the shorter boundary.”We know now that we have several batsmen capable of going big in T20. It was my night tonight, but if I don’t come off there are a number of others with the ability to score quickly and that is one of the reasons we are doing so well. It would be nice to cement a quarter-final place as soon as possible.”The game had started well for the visitors after they won the toss, with Miles Hammond falling to Tom Barber for 5, miscuing to extra cover.But that was as good as it got for the Middlesex bowlers, who lacked the guile and variation to break a stand of 99 in 11 overs between Klinger and Cockbain before the Gloucestershire captain was caught at backward point off Ravi Patel. The left-arm spinner escaped the carnage, conceding only 18 from his three overs.There was too much short and wide stuff from the visiting attack and Cockbain was in just the mood to capitalise, reaching fifty off 29 balls including two sixes.Six more sixes followed in a brilliant display of clean hitting without giving a chance as Cockbain moved past his previous highest T20 score of 91 not out and then to three figures off 53 deliveries.Noema-Barnett, with four sixes, and Taylor joined in the fun with some savage striking of their own as former Gloucestershire players James Fuller and James Franklin conceded 58 and 53 respectively from their four overs, while Barber went for 62.By the time Cockbain perished he had extended his boundary count to 12 fours and eight sixes. Only Klinger, with 126 not out against Essex on the same ground in 2015, has posted a bigger score in T20 cricket for Gloucestershire, whose only bigger total was the 254 for 3 they made, also against Middlesex, at Uxbridge in 2011.The current Middlesex side lost three wickets in the Powerplay, those of Paul Stirling, Dawid Malan and pinch-hitter Fuller in moving to 61.Eskinazi then joined Morgan in a stand of 86 in ten overs. There was drama at the end of the 11th over when Graeme van Buuren, on as a substitute fielder for Klinger, lay motionless after diving to prevent an Eskinazi boundary and a stretcher was summoned as he was helped over the rope.Eskinazi reached fifty off 29 balls, but when he and Morgan both fell in the 16th over, bowled by Noema-Barnett, any lingering doubt about the outcome was erased.

The England management are keeping an open mind as to Stokes’ availability, should his court case in Bristol be adjourned

Ben Stokes looks on from the balcony at Edgbaston•Getty Images
England have not given up hope that Ben Stokes could be available for the second Test starting at Lord’s on August 9.Stokes is due in court in Bristol on August 6 – the day after the Edgbaston Test is scheduled to finish – to face a charge of affray with the case scheduled to last somewhere between five and seven days.But the England management are keeping an open mind as to Stokes’ availability, should the case be adjourned for any reason. If that were to happen on the first or second day of the trial, the England camp have confirmed to ESPNcricinfo they would consider his involvement in the Test at Lord’s.Replacing Stokes, as England found during the Ashes, is desperately difficult. While the England management are expecting a drier surface at Lord’s that could well see Moeen Ali drafted back into the side as a second spinner, they would prefer him to play alongside Stokes, rather than instead of him.A case can be adjourned for many reasons including illness, the admission of new evidence or a change in the charge. While it remains likely the case will go ahead as originally envisaged – certainly the Stokes camp has no plans to call for an adjournment – the England camp are keen to find a way to accommodate Stokes if he becomes available.
كشف لويس دي لا فوينتي، المدير الفني لمنتخب إسبانيا، عن سعادته بعد التأهل إلى نهائي كأس أمم أوروبا مساء أمس على حساب فرنسا.
وتلاقى المنتخبان في خضم منافسات نصف نهائي يورو 2024، حيث فازت إسبانيا بهدفين لهدف.
وشهدت المباراة تألق كبير من قِبل اللاعب الشاب لامين يامال، الذي سجل هدف تعادل إسبانيا بطريقة خرافية.
وقال دي لا فوينتي في تصريحات نشرها الموقع الرسمي للبطولة: “لامين يقوم بأشياء تعطي تلميحات بأنه قد يكون عظيمًا في الرياضة، لكن علينا أن نبقى حذرين”.
وأضاف: “علينا أن نساعده من خلال إبقاء قدميه على الأرض وتطويره بأفضل طريقة، هذا يتعلق بالهدوء والسكينة، في روما القديمة، عندما تحدثوا عن قيصر كانوا يقولون (تذكر أنه فانٍ)”.
وأردف: “إنه يبدو وكأنه لاعب أكثر خبرة، أنا سعيد بوجوده في فريقنا وآمل أن نستمتع به لسنوات قادمة”.
وواصل: “يجب أن أحافظ على ثقتي في هذه المجموعة من اللاعبين، إنهم يعملون دائمًا من أجل الصالح العام، إنهم كرماء للغاية فيما يخص معدل عملهم، إنها مجرد علامة أخرى على أن هذا فريق لا يشبع، أنا فخور لأنني قادر على توجيه هؤلاء اللاعبين”.

واستمر: “أعلم أن لاعبي فريقي يمكنهم تقديم المزيد وأن يكونوا أفضل، أنا واثق من أننا سنفعل ذلك، فكرتنا عن كرة القدم ترتكز على ثقتنا بأنفسنا، نريد أن نلعب بنقاط قوتنا”.
وفيما يخص داني أولمو الذي سجل هدف الفوز، قال: “أعرف ما هو قادر عليه، لقد احتاج فقط إلى الوقت للتغلب على الإصابة والاندماج واستعادة السرعة والإيقاع الذي يحتاجه”.
وشدد: “أنا ممتن لداني على ما قدمه لنا على أرض الملعب، أنا ممتن لكوني قادرًا على قيادة 26 لاعبًا عبقريًا على أرض الملعب، نحن محظوظون لأن لدينا فريقًا إسبانيًا شابًا يتمتع بحضور ومستقبل كبير، أولمو هو أحد حاملي المعايير لدينا هذه الأيام”.
وسيلتقي منتخب إسبانيا مع الفائز من مباراة إنجلترا وهولندا، في النهائي يوم الأحد المقبل، وعن ذلك قال دي لا فوينتي: “أنا متأكد من أن النهائي سيكون مختلفًا تمامًا، أمام خصم سيطلب منا الأفضل، على الرغم من أن الأمر قد يبدو صعبًا، إلا أن هناك مجالا للتحسين”.

O jogo
Nos primeiros movimento de jogo, ambos os times optaram por tentar ficar mais com a posse de bola. Arriscando algumas jogadas ofensivas, os dois lados praticamente não finalizavam, deixando os goleiros tranquilos.
Na sequência, o panorama do jogo mantinha-se o mesmo. Entretanto, o CSA tentava dificultar a vida do Cuiabá apertando mais a marcação, fazendo com que o time da casa não tivesse como sair jogando.
Até que aos 30 minutos, o Azulão, aproveitando seu bom momento no confronto, abriu a contagem na Arena Pantanal. Recebendo na entrada da área, o atacante Rodrigo Pimpão mandou de cobertura não dando chances para o goleiro João Carlos, marcando um golaço. 1 a 0.
Na desvantagem, o Dourado foi pra cima para, ao menos, tentar o seu gol de empate antes do término da etapa. Porém, em uma única chance, Hayner acabou chutando sobre seu próprio colega de time lamentando o erro, dando a chance para a equipe alagoana, minutos mais tarde, quase ampliar com Norberto, mas a bola acabou indo na trave.
Tentando reverter a situação no segundo tempo, o Cuiabá acelerou o ritmo nos primeiros minutos. Com boas aparições em seu campo de ataque, acabou falhando nas finalizações, não oferecendo perigo ao goleiro Matheus Mendes.
Na sequência, os visitantes voltaram assustar a equipe local. Em uma tentativa de Rodrigo Pimpão, o chute do craque acertou a trave, graças ao toque de João Carlos, quase fazendo o segundo.
Até meados dos 35 minutos, com direito a algumas substituições dos dois técnicos, o jogo praticamente não teve grandes emoções. Com isso, a zaga do CSA praticamente manteve-se atenta a qualquer investida rival.
Nos minutos finais, com direito a seis de acréscimos dado pelo árbitro, o Azulão optou por segurar a posse de bola. Com isso, foi a deixa para a arbitragem colocar um ponto final na Arena Pantanal, com direito a vitória suada dos visitantes.
Leeds United are eyeing up four wins in succession when they travel to Stoke City this evening in the Championship.
The Whites secured a thrilling 3-2 victory over Norwich City last time after returning from 2-0 down as a Shane Duffy own goal and a Crysencio Summerville brace sent the away end into pandemonium.
Ahead of this fixture against the Potters, Daniel Farke is anticipating an intense performance from the opposition, which could mean making some alterations to his side to freshen up proceedings.
What is the latest Leeds United team news?
Farke confirmed that there were no fresh injury concerns to his squad following their win over Norwich, however, Junior Firpo, Djed Spence and Stuart Dallas remain the only absentees.
Leeds United's Junior Firpo
Theoretically, the German head coach could name the same starting XI as last time out but given the Championship's hectic schedule, it would be wise for him to utilise the full breadth of his squad.
With that being said, he could drop Dan James, who was wasteful against Norwich and replace him with Wilfried Gnonto.
How did Dan James perform against Norwich?
The fleet-footed winger terrorised the Canaries' back line with his searing pace but once he got himself in a position to produce the final pass or cross, he showed a lack of composure.
Throughout his career, James has been criticised for his wastefulness in the final third – having been dubbed "headless" by pundit Darren Bent – and despite Leeds dropping down to the Championship, that continues to be a theme that plagues the rest of his game.
In his 84 minutes on the pitch at Carrow Road, the 26-year-old was threatening in the build-up phase but he was seriously lacking any substance to go with his approach play, aside from supplying the cross that was inadvertently turned into his own goal by Duffy.
Leeds forward Dan James.
According to SofaScore, James only made one successful dribble, misfired two of his eight attempted crosses, lost possession on 17 occasions and missed one big chance.
That is an indication, if it was ever needed, that the former Manchester United man lets the ground swallow him up when he enters a dangerous position, instead of remaining composed and producing a piece of quality to go with it.
Gnonto's performances, however, paint a picture of someone who can provide the X Factor in the final third having burst onto the scene in the Premier League last season.
How has Wilfried Gnonto performed for Leeds this season?
When Wilfried Gnonto handed in a written transfer request in the summer, few would have expected him to still be plying his trade in the Championship.
However, a move never materialised and the Italian now looks set to play a huge part in the Whites charge for promotion.
The "special" forward – as lauded by former Leeds assistant coach Michael Skubala – made an instant impact on his return from injury by providing the assist off the bench for Crysencio Summerville's curled effort.
In his six appearances under Farke this term, Gnonto has averaged more successful dribbles than James per game (2.2/0.6), a better pass completion (82%/77%) and fewer big chances missed, as per SofaScore.
Whilst James has supplied four assists compared to Gnonto's one, the 20-year-old can prove against Stoke, if given a start, that he has the capacity to punish teams emphatically, unlike the Welshman.
If the diminutive teenager is unleashed from the off, the Potters won't know what's hit them.
All the pointers suggest that while Ange Postecoglou is delighted with how well his Tottenham Hotspur side have assimilated his managerial philosophy, there is much work to be done before the squad is complete.
Tottenham currently lead the race in the division and boast 26 points from ten matches, which is their best-ever start to a Premier League campaign, with Postecoglou accruing the highest total at this stage by any manager in their maiden year.
While the narrative seems to centre around the club's title-winning credentials, such is the way of football's clamouring discourse, the fans will simply be thrilled by the restoration of confidence and identity, producing compelling performances each week.
It has been a resounding few months, but the onus now lies on Postecoglou's ability to sustain his squad's endeavours, and to do so, 2024 may need to be a year of success in the transfer market.
Tottenham transfer news – Florian Wirtz
While defensive work is expected to take precedence in the winter transfer window, Spurs will be keeping an eye on the progress of prodigious midfielder Florian Wirtz, who has been at the centre of Bayer Leverkusen's sensational start to the campaign.
According to TEAMtalk earlier this week, Tottenham are among the growing host of Premier League clubs interested in signing the German player, though will face fierce competition from frontrunners Chelsea and Manchester City.
Florian Wirtz.
Separate reports claim that Leverkusen intend to maximise the 20-year-old's staggering value and cash in next summer, with figures as high as €85m (£74m) mentioned.
Whether Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy is able or willing to meet such an expensive valuation remains to be seen, but there's no question that he would be a stunning addition to cement the club's new stronghold at the top of the table.
Florian Wirtz's style of play
Under the guidance of the effortlessly cool Xabi Alonso, Leverkusen has propelled themselves into title contention in the German Bundesliga, indeed topping the table to mirror Spurs' success against the division's monopolising force.
The £42k-per-week talent has endured a dismal run of luck on the injury front and scarcely featured last season after rupturing his ACL, though did return to bag four goals and assists apiece last year, from only 19 starts.
Bayer Leverkusen forward Florian Wirtz
Noted for his "phenomenal" age-belying ability and maturity by teammate Jonathan Tah, Wirtz is silky and swift in his motions, a natural manufacturer of openings and an innate weaver through the lines.
Former Germany national coach Hansi Flick is among those to have been left dazzled by his skills, saying: "Florian is just a huge asset for this team through his carefree nature. He's simply an outstanding technician, loves to play, is very creative, has a good shot, runs hard and is quick. He's got a good total package."
That stats that show why Wirtz would thrive for Tottenham
As per FBref, the 12-cap Germany international has been among the finest playmakers in the business over the past year, ranking among the top 1% of attacking midfielders and wingers across Europe's top five leagues and European competitions for assists and shot-creating actions, and the top 3% for progressive passes and successful take-ons per 90.
It's remarkable how well he has performed following such a detrimental setback, and he's comfortably an "elite talent" on the European stage, as has been pronounced by informed scout Jacek Kulig.

Compared to some of the most creative and technically skilled players around, Wirtz has the world at his feet, and is continually demonstrating his worth as one of Europe's most exciting talents, with CIES Football Observatory claiming that he is worth £87m.
It's most intriguing that Heung-min Son and James Maddison are listed as the star's most comparable players, while the Spurs teammates are two of Postecoglou's most devastating offensive outlets, they differ greatly in their strengths and roles, with the South Korean's eight goals in the league this term, having been reshaped in the centre-forward position, highlighting his best fit.
Maddison, in comparison, has been utterly extraordinary since joining the club from Leicester City for £40m and is performing at the main creative supplier, with his role aligning with Wirtz's more accurately considering Son's new job at the front.
How Florian Wirtz compares to James Maddison
Maddison has been one of English football's most impressive summer transfers and has thrived since making the move to London, winning August's Premier League Player of the Month.
Similarly superlative in his supplementation, Maddison ranks among the top 2% of attacking midfielders across Europe's top five leagues over the past year for assists, the top 1% for shot-creating actions and the top 5% for progressive passes per 90.

As the graph above delineates, Maddison edges his younger confrere in most metrics but they are both equally impressive creative outlets for their respective sides, who can also offer a goal threat.
Well, the Spurs man is clearly more of a central fulcrum for his team, but there is no denying that Wirtz, who is only 20 and not long recuperated from a lengthy injury, boasts more than enough talent to surpass the Englishman in the future.
Given Wirtz has plundered 14 direct contributions from as many matches across all competitions during 2022/23, he is an impressive attacking talent who could thrive alongside Maddison as an exciting forward in Postecoglou's set-up.
Indeed, the £170k-per-week Lilywhite, in comparison, has posted three goals and five assists in the Premier League, but that is the extent of his success thus far, having played 11 matches in total this term.
While Tottenham are well-equipped in the creative department of the midfield, Wirtz is versatile and can play across a range of roles, a bit more comfortable than Maddison in the final third, and the Spurs boss must now swoop to secure his services in January.
With Giovani Lo Celso reportedly transfer listed for £15m, there might just be space for Tottenham to pull off an almighty deal for one of football's most coveted prospects, and with both Maddison and Wirtz in the team, Postecoglou's illustrious vision might just be realised.
