O Palmeiras encerrou, neste sábado, a preparação para enfrentar o Água Santa, no jogo que marca a volta do time ao Allianz Parque após 138 dias, neste domingo, às 16h. O técnico Vanderlei Luxemburgo comandou trabalho tático no campo sintético, que é idêntico ao do estádio, em atividade que foi acompanhado pelo presidente Maurício Galiotte e pelo diretor de futebol Anderson Barros, ambos presentes no gramado.

Como as atividades continuam sem a presença da imprensa, para minimizar o risco de contágio por Covid-19, o Palmeiras divulgou somente que a manhã foi de exercício tático e ensaio de jogadas. Não foram dados indícios da escalação, mas o técnico disse na quarta-feira, depois da derrota por 1 a 0 para o Corinthians, que pretende fazer uma ou duas alterações.

Uma mudança bem provável é a entrada de Marcos Rocha, que cumpriu suspensão no Dérbi. Mayke o substituiu e, depois, o volante Gabriel Menino entrou na lateral direita, recebendo intensos elogios do técnico. Na defesa, Gustavo Gómez ainda não renovou contrato e, por isso, a dupla de zaga continua formada por Felipe Melo e Vitor Hugo.

Quem também está fora é Viña. O lateral-esquerdo sofreu concussão na quarta. passou 24h em observação no hospital e se reapresentou à Academia de Futebol na última terça, em cronograma de volta gradual. Sem o uruguaio, Diogo Barbosa é o principal candidato a entrar no time.

Existe ainda incerteza no setor ofensivo. Sem Dudu, negociado com o Al Duhail, do Qatar, e Gabriel Veron, que sofreu lesão muscular e não joga mais pelo Campeonato Paulista, Zé Rafael foi titular e não agradou. Os meias Lucas Lima, Raphael Veiga e Gustavo Scarpa e o atacante Wesley podem ganhar oportunidade para formar a linha de frente com Rony, Willian e Luiz Adriano.

Assim, a provável escalação do Palmeiras para a última rodada da primeira fase do Campeonato Paulista tem: Weverton; Marcos Rocha, Felipe Melo, Vitor Hugo e Diogo Barbosa; Patrick de Paula, Bruno Henrique e Lucas Lima (Raphael Veiga ou Gustavo Scarpa); Rony, Willian e Luiz Adriano.

O Palmeiras está classificado para enfrentar o Santo André nas quartas de final, mas está em segundo lugar no Grupo B, com 19 pontos, e, para ser líder e ser mandante no jogo único da próxima fase, precisa vencer o Água Santa, no Allianz Parque, e torcer para o Santo André, dono de 20 pontos, tropeçar contra o Ituano, no Canindé, também às 16h deste domingo.

O Verdão também tem a chance de alcançar a melhor campanha da primeira fase. Para isso, além de vencer e secar o Santo André, precisa que o Red Bull Bragantino, que tem 20 pontos, não derrote o Botafogo de Ribeirão Preto, em Osasco, outro jogo às 16h deste domingo. Quem tiver melhor pontuação ganha o direito de ser mandante nos confrontos únicos das quartas e semifinal e também no segundo e decisivo duelo da final do Estadual.

Após o empate em 1 a 1 contra o Red Bull Bragantino, neste domingo (09), pela primeira rodada do Campeonato Brasileiro, na Vila Belmiro, os atletas do Santos se reapresentaram nesta segunda-feira (10) no CT Rei Pelé.

Os titulares contra o Massa Bruta fizeram apenas um trabalho regenerativo, que contou com a presença do atacante Marinho. O autor do único gol do Peixe contra o Braga saiu de campo de maca nos minutos finais da partida, foi reavaliado e não constatou problemas físicos.

Entre os reservas e não relacionados contra o time do interior paulista, o atacante Raniel fez parte de um treinamento no gramado do Centro de Treinamentos. O jogador sofreu um trauma no joelho no empate em 1 a 1 contra o Santo André, pela 11ª rodada do Campeonato Paulista, na Vila Belmiro, no dia 22 de julho, ficando de fora dos dois jogos seguintes, se submentendo a um cronograma especial para a sua recuperação. O camisa 12 treinava com bola desde a última terça-feira (04), mas não foi convocado para o duelo deste fim de semana.

Antes das atividades, todos os jogadores e comissão técnica foram submetidos e novos testes de Covid-19, os resultados serão divulgados pelo clube apenas na quinta-feira (14), quando o Alvinegro Praiano visita o Internacional, em Porto Alegre, pela segunda rodada do Brasileirão.

A major Newcastle United transfer claim has emerged on their interest in signing Philippe Coutinho this summer.

What’s the talk?

Transfer insider Dean Jones has revealed that the Magpies will make an offer to the Brazilian in the upcoming window if given the opportunity to do so.

He is currently on loan at Aston Villa from Barcelona and they will need to fight the Villans to land his signature ahead of the 2022/23 campaign.

Jones told GIVEMESPORT: “Steven Gerrard still wants Villa to sign Coutinho, but Newcastle are watching this with interest.

“At the end of the month Villa have to tell Barcelona whether they intend to take up the option to buy him – and if they hesitate I’m told Newcastle will look to make a proposal to the player.”

PIF’s best deal yet

Bringing Coutinho in on a permanent deal in the summer would be PIF’s best piece of business so far since taking over the club in 2021.

They brought in a host of players in the January window to bolster Eddie Howe’s squad, including Dan Burn, Chris Wood, Bruno Guimaraes, Matt Targett and Kieran Trippier.

This deal, however, would be their biggest statement to date as they would be signing a top-class player in what should be the peak years of his career at the age of 29. He was previously valued at a whopping £135m by Transfermarkt and this shows how much potential he has.

The Brazilian would also come in with a wealth of Premier League experience. Coutinho has played 167 matches in the English top-flight throughout his career, scoring 45 goals and providing 40 assists as he has proven that he can regularly contribute in the final third.

In his last campaign for Liverpool, he averaged a phenomenal SofaScore rating of 8.01 across 14 matches in the division as he scored seven goals and provided six assists – creating 2.9 chances per game. If Newcastle can get him playing anywhere near this level then they will have an extremely special player on their hands.

He has proven his quality in England and still has plenty left to give at his age. This means that he would be a sublime signing for Eddie Howe’s team and one that would represent a major coup for PIF because of his pedigree.

It would send out a statement to other teams as it would show them that Newcastle mean business in the market and will be able to attract mercurial talents, like Coutinho.

Leeds United correspondent Phil Hay has stated that Raphinha will be ‘available’ for this afternoon’s crucial clash with Brighton.

The Lowdown: Injury scare

The 25-year-old was replaced on Wednesday evening against Chelsea with what appeared to be a hamstring or a groin problem.

[web_stories_embed url=”https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/web-stories/latest-leeds-united-news-43/” title=”Latest Leeds United news!” poster=”https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/cropped-2022-03-10T184055Z_1834933207_UP1EI3A1FW561_RTRMADP_3_SOCCER-ENGLAND-LEE-AVA-REPORT-1-scaled-1.jpg” width=”360″ height=”600″ align=”none”]

Raphinha, the club’s top scorer with 10 league goals, had to be persuaded by Jesse Marsch to come off for Joe Gelhardt in what was another evening to forget at Elland Road.

Jack Harrison also went off injured and Dan James was sent off, adding to Leeds’ injury and suspension problems ahead of the final home game of the season against Graham Potter’s side.

The Latest: Hay’s post

Hay was present at Thorp Arch for Marsch’s pre-match press conference on Friday and relayed some important injury news on Twitter.

He said that Raphinha ‘will be available’, whereas Harrison was scheduled to train yesterday and Patrick Bamford is ‘still being assessed’.

The Verdict: Last Elland Road dance

Raphinha, who Noel Whelan labelled as ‘brilliant’ following his debut for Brazil, could well play his final game at Elland Road as a Whites player this afternoon.

That’s because it looks as if he will move to Barcelona regardless of what division Leeds find themselves in next season, with talks at an ‘advanced’ stage over a summer transfer to the Nou Camp, but he could play a key role in helping the Whites survive with a starring display this afternoon.

A third successive home defeat could prove fatal, and with attacking resources limited, Raphinha may have to drag Leeds out of the bottom three single-handedly.

Crystal Palace are among the clubs interested in signing Arsenal striker Eddie Nketiah, according to a report from 90min journalist Toby Cudworth.

The lowdown: Nketiah set for summer move

Out of contract at the end of June (Transfermarkt), the Gunners ace has already rejected offers of a new deal to stay in north London.

Having come to the fore in recent weeks for Mikel Arteta’s side, the 22-year-old’s future is coming under increased scrutiny as the end of the season fast approaches.

It now appears that a move away from the Emirates Stadium as a free agent could be on the horizon…

The latest: Palace interested in Nketiah

Taking to Twitter to share the in-depth report from 90min, transfer expert Cudworth explained the current situation regarding the England youth starlet’s future.

The reporter outlined: “It’s increasingly unlikely Eddie Nketiah will stay at Arsenal – #WHUFC, #NUFC, #EFC and #CPFC all chasing. Liverpool and Chelsea also monitoring situation – 22 y/o could provide attractive squad depth option.”

Furthermore, within the report, it was claimed that Palace are ‘firmly interested’ in signing the youngster, who was hailed as ‘extraordinary’ by his manager following one match against Manchester City in June 2020.

The verdict: Make it happen

Whilst the progress at Selhurst Park since the arrival of Patrick Vieira has been superb, it does feel as if the Frenchman could do with strengthening Palace’s centre-forward options.

As things stand, Wilfried Zaha once again tops the Eagles’ scoring charts, with attacking midfielder Conor Gallagher in second. Strikers Odsonne Edouard and Jean-Philippe Mateta are in the top five but neither have managed to reach double figures this season.

That is an area which needs to be addressed if Palace are to move on to the next level under Vieira, and the capture of Nketiah from the Gunners would go a long way to solving the issue.

Overall this season, the Londoner has scored nine goals and provided one assist in 26 outings across all competitions, starting to translate a remarkable record at youth level, scoring 16 times in 17 England under-21 appearances and 28 goals in 40 games for Arsenal’s under-23s.

With Nketiah soon to be a free agent, this move seems like a no-brainer for Crystal Palace.

Gabby Agbonlahor has shared a big ‘issue’ for Glasgow Rangers after some transfer news that he has now heard involving Calvin Bassey.

The Lowdown: Transfer interest in Bassey

The Daily Record reported over the weekend that scouts from an English club were sent to watch the 22-year-old in their Scottish Cup final victory as they ponder a move.

The Times since confirmed strong interest in the defender from Aston Villa.

[web_stories_embed url=”https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/web-stories/rangers-news-4/” title=”Rangers news!” poster=”” width=”360″ height=”600″ align=”none”]

As per Football Insider, the Ibrox club are lining up new contract talks with Bassey and will offer him a ‘massive’ pay rise in order to try and convince him to stay, but calls from the Premier League may be too hard for him to turn down.

The Latest: Agbonlahor reacts

Speaking to Football Insider, Agbonlahor has now claimed that Rangers will have an ‘issue’ in not being able to offer Bassey as much money as a club in the English top flight, admitting that he does not see the 22-year-old signing a new deal and staying at Ibrox beyond this summer.

The former Villa striker – who contributes as a pundit for Sky Sports – replied when asked if the defender will sign a new deal with the Gers: “I don’t think he will, to be honest.

“The problem with Rangers and Celtic is they can’t pay the money that teams in the Premier League can. Goldson’s trying to move for financial reasons.

“What can Rangers offer Bassey? That’s the issue. He could probably get double the money at Aston Villa.

“I’m sure he would be reluctant to sign a new contract and see what is out there for him, to be honest.

“There will be clubs out there for him, 1000 per cent. He’s quick, calm on the ball, strong and good in the air.

“I’d take him at Aston Villa tomorrow. A lot of clubs in the Premier League will look at him.

“I’m surprised that Leicester let him go, to be honest. That’s very strange.”

The Verdict: Departure seems inevitable

Unfortunately for the Light Blues, it seems inevitable that Bassey will move on if Villa or another club in the Premier League were to put in a serious offer for him.

The 22-year-old has already shown that he is made for the big stage with his impressive performance in their Europa League final defeat to Eintracht Frankfurt, making three interceptions and two tackles on the night, while his display was described as ‘astonishing’ by BT Sport pundit Owen Hargreaves.

Nonetheless, with a new contract on the table, Bassey’s future now lies in his own hands, and it looks set to be a big couple of months over the summer for the Nigeria international.

Brighton & Hove Albion assistant manager Billy Reid has delivered a promising verdict on what could be to come from Celtic midfielder James McCarthy.

The lowdown: First-year struggles

Having amassed 272 Premier League appearances south of the border across spells with Everton and Crystal Palace, the capture of McCarthy appeared to be a masterstroke from Ange Postecoglou as a first signing.

However, the 31-year-old Republic of Ireland international struggled for consistent form in the first of a four year deal at Celtic Park.

[web_stories_embed url=”https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/web-stories/key-latest-celtic-updates-8/” title=”Key latest Celtic updates!” poster=”” width=”360″ height=”600″ align=”none”]

Despite often being overlooked in favour of Callum McGregor, Reo Hatate and Matt O’Riley, McCarthy has been backed to turn his fortunes around in Glasgow…

The latest: Reid keeps the faith

As quoted by the Daily Record, Reid, the man who gave the 42-cap ace his senior debut for Hibernian when aged just 15, suggested that the experienced midfielder has adapted to do the ‘dirty’ work next season.

The 58-year-old Glasgow born coach said: “There is a role for James at Celtic. He’s not the box-to-box player he was, he’s adapted to become a sitting midfielder where he can do the dirty side. Keeping it simple as a possession-based player, winning the ball back and being that central cog is what he’s so good at.

“There is stiff competition but it doesn’t matter what age you are, age is not a barrier. I look at Mark Noble who I saw when we played West Ham last week, he’s still at the top despite being 35 years old. Scott Brown was being written off every season after he turned 30 but look at the size of his character to show people they are wrong. He always came back stronger.

“Players are always being tested and this is another test for James. I’m just hoping that next season marks a positive turnaround for him as it’s probably fair to say that the last few years have not been where James wanted things to be.”

The verdict: More to come

During the successful 2021/22 campaign, McCarthy made only 22 appearances across all competitions despite remaining fit and available for the most part.

Eight of those outings came in a deeper-lying role, a position Reid has mooted that could be the future for the experienced star ,who was once hailed as ‘real class’ by Roy Hodgson during his time at Crystal Palace.

Following the departure of Nir Bitton and Tom Rogic, Ange Postecoglou may well call upon the services of a McCarthy with plenty to prove more frequently as the Hoops add participation in the Champions League to an already packed fixture schedule.

An update has emerged on Sunderland and their plans for the upcoming transfer window… 

What’s the talk?

According to The Sunday Mirror (5/6, page 69), the Black Cats are considering a swoop to sign out-of-contract shot-stopper John Ruddy in the coming weeks.

The report claims that they are weighing up a move for the Englishman after Premier League side Wolves decided to release the veteran instead of offering him a new deal.

Alex Neil would love him

Kristjaan Speakman is plotting a move for the one-cap England international and must bring the experienced goalkeeper to the Stadium of Light as Neil would love him next season.

Ruddy is vastly experienced in the top two divisions of English football and knows exactly what it takes to win promotion out of the Championship.

He has been promoted to the Premier League as a title-winner (with Wolves) and twice with Norwich as a runner-up and then a play-off winner. This shows that he is no stranger to getting out of the second tier and he can bring invaluable experience to the younger members of the squad.

In his career to date, the 35-year-old has played 163 Championship matches and kept 58 clean sheets. He has also featured in 122 top-flight games and kept 27 shutouts, playing in both divisions for Wolves and the Canaries.

Upon the confirmation of his exit from the Molineux stadium, Wolves reporter Tim Spiers heaped praise on Ruddy as he tweeted: “A model professional, a massive character in the dressing room and an excellent goalkeeper.”

This highlights what he can offer to Sunderland off the pitch as he can be a huge influence on young Anthony Patterson next season. It would be an excellent opportunity for the Black Cats youngster to have a player of Ruddy’s professionalism, experience, and quality in the building as he can learn from him in training.

The 6 foot 3 colossus is also no stranger to Neil as they worked together at Carrow Road. Ruddy played 76 times for the Scot in Norfolk, including in a 2-0 play-off final win over Middlesbrough at Wembley in 2015, and this means that they already have a pre-existing relationship.

Sunderland’s head coach would, therefore, love to have him at the Stadium of Light next season for the reasons stated above and because he already knows what he would be getting from the shot-stopper.

AND in other news, Speakman plotting Sunderland bid for 6 ft 3 “Rolls-Royce”, he can get SoL rocking…

A Sunderland development has emerged regarding Ross Stewart heading into the summer transfer window… 

What’s the talk?

According to The Northern Echo, the Black Cats are set to make a contract offer to the centre-forward as they attempt to keep him at the Stadium of Light.

Middlesbrough and Rangers have been linked with a swoop for the Scotland international, and the Wearside club are now ready to ward off interest by extending his current terms.

On that note, Sunderland sporting director Kristjaan Speakman hinted at potential deals for existing members of the squad as he said: “From our contractual status and planning, we have got players that are on contracts where it’s Sunderland’s decision what happens to those players to a certain degree.

“We are constantly negotiating with players. You want happy players in the club to obviously then perform but ultimately we are putting ourselves in position where we are protecting the club. We are looking after the players and therefore everyone is happy.”

Supporters will be delighted

The supporters will surely be delighted by the prospect of Stewart signing a new deal, as keeping him at the Stadium of Light would be a major boost for Alex Neil.

Sunderland will need to keep their best players to give them the best chance of being able to compete in the Championship next season, and the striker certainly falls into that category.

In the 2021/22 campaign, the Scot scored a whopping 26 goals in 49 games for the Black Cats in League One. He has proven that he can find the net on a consistent basis and is the biggest goal threat in the team by some distance.

Nathan Broadhead’s tally of 10 goals was the next highest in the squad and he has now returned to Everton following the end of his loan deal, illustrating how important Stewart’s goals will be to Sunderland next term.

It is also worth mentioning that the 25-year-old started all 46 games in the regular season and then the three play-off matches for the club. This proves that he is reliable in terms of his availability as well as his goalscoring, and this will be important in another gruelling 46-game season.

Stewart has proven that he can withstand a high volume of matches without breaking down due to injury, and Neil would be buzzing if he can keep hold of a player he can rely upon at the top end of the pitch.

AND in other news, Imagine him & Wright: Neil can land “perfect” Sunderland signing with deal for “superb” brute…

Wolves could make a move for Braga centre-back David Carmo in the summer transfer window, according to transfer expert Dean Jones.

The Lowdown: Wolves linked with Carmo

Bruno Lage could look to make defensive reinforcements before the start of next season, with the experienced Romain Saiss moving on from Molineux recently.

Carmo is one player with whom Wolves have been linked in recent weeks, following another impressive season at the heart of Braga’s defence.

The 22-year-old won 3.4 aerial duels per game in the Europa League in 2021/22, along with making a monstrous 6.2 clearances per match.

The Latest: Carmo move to Wolves is quite possible

Speaking to GiveMeSport, Jones claimed that Carmo joining Wolves is more than possible this summer, as other suitors may have abandoned their interest in the defender due to injury troubles.

The report stated:

“David Carmo obviously is a guy that they’re looking at. And the fact that he had a serious ankle problem not too long ago might actually help them land him because there were bigger clubs having a look who might just have lost focus on him.

“And it might be that they get a player like that at a time when he could have been going elsewhere.”

[freshpress-quiz id=“398117″]

The Verdict: Great potential signing

While Wolves were secure defensively last season, conceding fewer league goals than any team who finished outside the top four – they can’t afford to rest on their laurels; and fresh blood is required, especially with Saiss leaving.

Carmo looks like a perfect candidate to come in and make Wolves even more resolute at the back – he has been described as ‘fantastic’ by his manager Carlos Carvalhal – with his aforementioned statistics highlighting the presence that he offers at the back.

[freshpress-poll id=“399044″]

At 22, Carmo is also quite young and should only improve even furthe, so Lage could sign someone who could be a mainstay at the club for a number of years. Partnering him with Max Kilman and Conor Coady, assuming they both stay at Molineux, would make for a dominant back three in Old Gold.
