BCB chief sets up panel to investigate claims of biased umpiring

The week’s events around Shakib Al Hasan have been “extremely insulting” says Nazmul Hasan

Shakib Al Hasan argues with umpire Mahfuzur Rahman•Walton

Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) president Nazmul Hassan has called for an investigation into allegations of biased umpiring in the Dhaka Premier League T20, after the “extremely insulting” incident involving Shakib Al Hasan. The board chief has already, in light of that incident, formed a committee to speak to the 12 clubs to find out about their issues during the tournament, and asked them to report back to him this week.The talk about biased umpiring came up again after Shakib kicked the stumps following an lbw appeal being denied in the Abahani-Mohammedan Sporting Club match on Friday. Shakib then threw down the stumps after play was stopped due to rain. His subsequent actions, which included abusing the umpires and groundstaff, landed him a three-match ban and a fine of BDT 5 lakh (USD 5,800 approx).”It (Shakib’s outburst) has spread so much internationally,” Hassan told Jamuna TV. “I am getting non-stop calls from all over the world. This is extremely insulting for Bangladesh. I think there’s no point in playing domestic cricket until and unless we find out the solution. It has reached an extreme point. It has ruined all the good work we have done.”Hassan said he hadn’t yet received any complaints from the clubs, which would have to come through the captain’s report at the end of the match. But there have been murmurs of biased umpiring and allegations of under-performance during this tournament.”They haven’t shown me anything as proof. I am only seeing documents signed by managers and captains from matches. There’s no complaint from anyone, so who will give me the allegations? I have still asked them to find out what’s going on. Matches are being recorded now. It is not just hearsay. We will definitely take action,” he said.Hassan stressed that the BCB is spending a lot of money to maintain a bio-bubble for all 12 DPL clubs and match officials, so he expects a clean competition.”I am not in favour of running domestic cricket until I find a solution. We have to solve the problem first. We hear from people, from the media, and Facebook that everything is pre-planned.”If that’s so, there is no point of running these games, that too during Covid, and spending one million dollars as additional cost for the bio-bubble,” he said.Hassan has previously called for an investigation after several incidents took place in the Dhaka league-cricket system, including the Dhaka Premier League. Although the BCB has often said that clubs don’t lodge complaints through official channels about umpiring, there is documented evidence from as far back as 2016 that clubs have complained against certain umpires for bias.

West Brom will regret not selling star who earns more than Mowatt & Furlong

West Bromwich Albion fans will be counting down the days now until their side returns to Championship action, hoping for three league wins on the bounce when travelling to face Portsmouth on Sunday.

Carlos Corberan will know the gist of what his main starting XI looks like for this trip down to the South Coast, confident that Josh Maja can lead the line effectively once more after netting four goals from four league games so far, whilst also fully trusting the likes of Alex Palmer and Kyle Bartley at the back to provide another steely performance defensively.

West Bromwich Albion manager Carlos Corberan.

Alongside those names, the Spanish boss in the Hawthorns dug-out will also know he can rely on both Alex Mowatt and Darnell Furlong in difficult times to come this campaign, past the test this weekend, as both continue to be everpresent under the former Huddersfield Town manager.

Furlong and Mowatt's performances this season

Both the Baggies number two and the Baggies number 27 find their spaces in Corberan's starting lineup as concrete as they can possibly be at this moment in time, with zero minutes missed this season so far in the league.

Both continue to be key parts of the West Brom puzzle for good reason too, with Furlong standing out in particular last time out during the narrow 1-0 win over Swansea City, notching up two key passes as an attacking presence whilst also performing his defensive duties valiantly with seven total duels won.

Furlong also completed this last-ditch tackle in the slim victory to ensure his side didn't leak an unwanted goal, whilst Mowatt also went about his business in a stylish manner to help clinch the three points.

Although his holding midfield partner on the day would steal the limelight, with Jayson Molumby's late second-half goal the deciding strike, the former Leeds United man also played his part in the win being secured with 100% of his duels won, but also with a calmness present in his game that saw only nine of his 45 passes be misplaced.

Going forward – even with the sprinkling of new additions to Corberan's camp this summer – both will continue to be some of the first names on their manager's team sheet, whilst others have fallen down the pecking order.

Jed Wallace would fit into the final category now, with injury issues meaning he's been a background figure for the Baggies so far this campaign, which hasn't really impacted West Brom yet on the pitch.

Wallace's future at West Brom

There were even rumours floating about at the Hawthorns this summer that Wallace was going to move on from the Baggies, with interest from the likes of Luton Town reported towards the end of the frantic window.

Wallace has stayed put, but he could well regret that decision, having found his minutes hard to come by so far this campaign as young hotshot Tom Fellows also continues to excel down the right wing, with three assists already picked up from four league games.

Alongside only featuring from off the substitutes bench so far this season from his three appearances, the former Millwall man's high wage will also be more of a pressing concern if he doesn't fight back and reclaim a starting spot soon, with Wallace coming in as the fourth highest earner currently in Corberan's camp.

Both Furlong and Mowatt surprisingly earn a lesser pay packet, at £18.4k-per-week and £20k-per-week respectively, despite proving why they are undroppable members of the Baggies first-team so far this season over their teammate.

Wallace does have moments of magic like this sublime strike up his sleeve, however, and could prove to be a useful squad member moving forward, especially if Fellows' electric form drops off.

Still, with that interesting emerging from the likes of Luton and Pompey this summer for the 30-year-old, West Brom might live to regret not cashing in on their "unbelievable" gem, as he was once labelled by ex-Sheffield United defender Jack O'Connell.

It also won't be viewed as a hindrance having him available moving forward when he gets back up to full fitness either, as West Brom now hunt down more Championship victories this month.

Bastidores do Flamengo no Uruguai: academia 'reformada', internet própria e pedido 'especial' de Renato

MatériaMais Notícias

O Flamengo ainda tem um jogo a cumprir no Campeonato Brasileiro antes de embarcar para Montevidéu, sede da final da Libertadores, a ser realizada no próximo sábado (27), contra o Palmeiras. Mas os preparativos para a estadia já estão definidos, inclusive com uma colaboração camarada do Peñarol e incrementos solicitados pelos cariocas.

O Peñarol será a casa do Flamengo de quarta-feira a sábado (de manhã), pois o Rubro-Negro, que chegará na capital uruguaia na quarta, treinará no mesmo dia (24) na sede dos Carboneros – Estádio Campeón del Siglo. A Conmebol sugeriu, e os clubes estreitaram os laços e acordaram até a inclusão de equipamentos de academia para a preparação até a final, assegurados pelo Fla, que pediu um reparo especial no gramado após as atividades por lá.

Em relação à hospedagem, o Flamengo fincará bandeira a cerca de 10km do estádio do Peñarol. O clube avisou à Conmebol que necessitava de mais quartos em relação ao que a entidade havia oferecido e, agora, terá 75 à sua disposição, sendo que cada atleta terá o seu próprio quarto.

No hotel, aliás, o Fla também se preocupou com dois fatores preponderantes: ampliar a área de academia do hotel, que passará a ter um local improvisado para a aparelhagem de fisioterapia e massagem, e cuidar da alimentação, tanto que levará um cozinheiro (junto ao seu auxiliar) na delegação, e os atletas só consumirão água mineral de copos lacrados, por exemplo.

INTERNET PARA OS ATLETAS

Com 100% de ocupação, a internet do hotel não seria a ideal para atender à delegação. Assim, segundo o LANCE! apurou, oFlamengo contratou plano de internet exclusivo para o clube. Serão instalados roteadores no quarto de todos atletas para ajudá-los a navegar sem transtornos, jogar, assistir a filmes e passar o tempo.

Além disso, a internet própria ajudará a comissão a baixar conteúdo e repassar aos jogadores, como é feito de praxe. Gabriel Skinner, supervisor de futebol do clube, adotou as medidas apósduas visitas técnicas ao hotel.

PEDIDO DE RENATO

Renato Gaúcho fez um pedido “especial” à direção do clube: para a delegação chegar o mais cedo possível em Montevidéu, diferentemente de como ocorreu em Lima, em que o clube teve um dia a menos para preparação no país da final. No entendimento dele, o objetivo, além da ambientação o quanto anos, é a recuperação daqueles que necessitam de mais atenção, como Arrascaeta, Pedro e Bruno Henrique.

Antes de entrar em definitivo na “operação final”, o Flamengo visita o Grêmio por uma rodada atrasada (2ª) do Brasileiro. O jogo será realizado às 21h desta terça-feira, em Porto Alegre.

Chelsea really want £37m midfielder who Real Madrid have opened talks for

Chelsea are showing a very strong interest in a midfielder who Real Madrid have already opened talks to sign, with the highly-rated ace also wanted by a host of other elite European sides, including Barcelona.

Chelsea's transfer plans for 2025 as Boehly looks to next year

The west Londoners displayed real spending power in the summer, as they have done since Clearlake Capital’s takeover in 2022, with close to £200 million spent on 13 summer signings in Joao Felix, Mike Penders, Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, Marc Guiu, Renato Veiga, Estevao Willian, Filip Jorgensen, Tosin Adarabioyo, Aaron Anselmino, Caleb Wiley, Omari Kellyman, Pedro Neto and Jadon Sancho.

However, despite the influx of new players and a heavily-changed squad, rumours suggest that Todd Boehly and BlueCo are already planning for next year.

Reece James’ injury woes have reportedly motivated the club to monitor new right-backs, with Bayer Leverkusen star Jeremie Frimpong among the Chelsea wing-back targets for 2025, according to some reports.

Meanwhile, after failing to sign Victor Osimhen in the summer, it is believed Chelsea are still on the look-out for a new centre-forward – and it could be that they attempt to go back in for the Nigerian.

According to TEAMtalk this week, Chelsea have made fresh contact with Osimhen’s representatives, as the Blues look to ascertain whether a January swoop is possible amid a rumoured break-clause in his Galatasaray deal.

“I know what Victor wanted, I know what the club offered him, I know where we got to, we finally got to a compromise, both sides had to compromise, I was just some little things here and there, paperwork, medical, and a few issues we just couldn’t get over the line and we didn’t have much time,” said John Obi-Mikel, who knows the player well, on Osimhen’s failed Chelsea move.

“Both sides really played their part in terms of getting the deal done, and I commend Chelsea for that because I can see their ambition of where they want to take this club now and also on Victor’s side, how much he really wanted to come to the club. He was disappointed it didn’t happen.”

Given the 25-year-old’s clear willingness to make the move to Stamford Bridge, this could be one to watch, but Osimhen isn’t the only key player on their agenda as Boehly also seeks to add another wonderkid to Chelsea’s books.

Chelsea really want to sign Real Madrid target Franco Mastantuono

According to CaughtOffside, one of South America’s most exciting young talents – 17-year-old River Plate midfielder Franco Mastantuono – is well and truly on Chelsea’s radar.

The teenager is already valued at around £37 million by River Plate, indicating his sky-high potential, and it is believed European champions Real have already opened initial talks over a deal for Mastantuono.

Chelsea are showing a strong interest in signing Mastantuono, as are Arsenal, while it is believed Barcelona and Man City are among the plethora of big-name sides who are also keeping tabs on the Argentine.

While Chelsea cannot be ruled out of the race at this stage, Mastantuono is giving preference to a Madrid move, which is understandable given their status.

Palmeiras receberá mais de RS 2 milhões do Olimpia por valores envolvendo Mendieta

MatériaMais Notícias

O Palmeiras cobra na FIFA valores referentes à venda e revenda do jogador William Mendieta, que foi negociado pelo clube com o Olimpia, do Paraguai, há mais de cinco anos. O clube paraguaio, ciente da cobrança, afirma que pagará a dívida de 360 mil dólares (cerca de R$ 2 milhões na cotação atual).

A primeira parte da dívida diz respeito à última parcela da transferência do meio-campista ao time paraguaio, enquanto a outra parte está relacionada a uma clausula de revenda estipulada no contrato. Isso porque o Palmeiras possuía 50% dos direitos econômicos do jogador, que foi negociado com o Juarez, do México, no último ano.

O processo pelos pagamentos atrasados perdura por anos e a entidade máxima do futebol exige a quitação da quantia por parte do Olimpia, em sentença já decretada. O secretário do clube, Wildo Almirón, diz ter a ação em estágio avançado.

– Hoje temos bastante avançada a demanda do Palmeiras pelo caso do Mendieta. Já há uma sentença e vamos receber a intimação do pagamento – afirmou.

William Mendieta foi contratado pelo Palmeiras em 2013, junto ao Libertad, do Paraguai, quando o time disputava a segunda divisão do Brasileirão. Depois de duas temporadas irregulares foi emprestado ao Olimpia em 2015. Dois anos depois, foi vendido ao clube paraguaio, no qual conquistou o tetracampeonato nacional.

النصر يقترب من استعادة لاعبه المتألق قبل مواجهة الاتفاق

يقترب أحد لاعبي النصر السعودي البارزين من العودة إلى التدريبات الجماعية، بعد قطعه شوطًا كبيرًا في برنامجه التأهيلي عقب الإصابة التي تعرض لها مؤخرًا، والتي أبعدته عن الملاعب في الفترة الماضية.

وبدأ اللاعب بالفعل الجري حول الملعب، إلى جانب تنفيذ تدريبات بالكرة، في خطوة تمهيدية لانضمامه إلى زملائه قبل المواجهة المرتقبة أمام الاتفاق، ضمن منافسات الجولة الـ21 من دوري روشن السعودي، والمقررة يوم الجمعة المقبل.

وبحسب صحيفة الميدان الرياضي السعودية، فإن النجم الكولومبي جون دوران يواصل العمل على استعادة جاهزيته، بعدما تعرض لإصابة في عضلة السمانة خلال لقاء القمة أمام الأهلي في الجولة الماضية، وهي المباراة التي قدم خلالها أداءً مميزًا، مسجلًا هدفين ساهم بهما في فوز فريقه بنتيجة 3-2.

ويأمل الجهاز الفني للنصر في استعادة جهود المهاجم الكولومبي بشكل كامل قبل مواجهة الاتفاق، لا سيما أنه بات أحد العناصر الهجومية المؤثرة منذ انضمامه للفريق، وتظل مشاركته في اللقاء المقبل مرهونة بتقرير الجهاز الطبي، ومدى استجابته للبرنامج التأهيلي في الأيام القليلة القادمة.

وكان دوران قد انضم إلى النصر قادمًا من أستون فيلا خلال فترة الانتقالات الشتوية في يناير الماضي، وشارك في ثلاث مباريات حتى الآن، اثنتان في الدوري أمام الفيحاء والأهلي، وواحدة في دوري أبطال آسيا للنخبة ضد الوصل.

ويحتل النصر المركز الثالث في جدول ترتيب الدوري السعودي برصيد 44 نقطة، محققًا 13 انتصارًا و5 تعادلات مقابل خسارتين، وبفارق الأهداف عن القادسية صاحب المركز الرابع.

Alongside Igamane: Clement can unleash "gifted" Rangers dynamo

Glasgow Rangers returned to domestic action last weekend with a whimper rather than the bang that many of the Ibrox support were expecting.

Of course, Dundee United at Tannadice was always going to be a tough challenge, but after Tom Lawrence scored the opening goal after just seven minutes, that was as good as it got for Philippe Clement’s men.

One of the most positive aspects of the underwhelming 1-0 victory was summer signing Hamza Igamane receiving a 25-minute cameo.

The Moroccan youngster took the game in his stride, showcasing his talents despite limited minutes. Could Clement unleash him from the starting XI this evening?

Hamza Igamane should start for Rangers vs Dundee

Despite arriving at Ibrox during the summer transfer window, it took a few weeks for him to build up his fitness.

Clement brought him off the subs bench during the 3-0 defeat to Celtic at the start of the month, but he was only given 11 minutes.

Against United, however, it was a different story. His inclusion made the Gers much more dynamic going forward, with his excellent ball control and special awareness giving him plenty of freedom in the final third.

With more clinical finishing, he could have had an assist after a wonderful through ball, but it was a solid cameo overall.

With Cyriel Dessers in need of a rest, this is Igamane’s chance to shine against Dundee in the League Cup quarter-final.

There could well be more than one change, as one of Clement’s other summer signings is ready to make his first start for the Light Blues.

Why Nedim Bajrami should make his first start for Rangers

The Albanian scored after just 23 seconds against Italy at Euro 2024 in the summer, impressing for his country despite the fact they exited at the group stage.

In Serie A last season, the attacking midfielder scored twice and grabbed two assists for Sassuolo, although he couldn’t prevent the club from being relegated.

Bajrami also created three big chances, averaged 0.8 key passes per game and succeeded with 57% of his dribble attempts, demonstrating his attacking qualities in one of the top European leagues.

It was seen as a coup when the Gers announced his signing, with Kai Watson, founder of the Rangers Journal lavished praise on the midfielder, saying: “A technically gifted, intelligent footballer than can play in multiple positions with plenty of Serie A experience.”

He was limited to an appearance from the bench last weekend, coming on for the second half, showing flashes of his brilliance.

He managed to succeed with two of his four dribble attempts, while also winning 50% of his total duels in what was his introduction to Scottish football.

With a chance to progress to the semi-finals of the League Cup for the fourth consecutive year, the onus will be on Clement to mix things up and give a few new arrivals some game time.

This could see Igamane and Bajrami form a wonderful duo as they bid to take down the Dens Park side this evening at Ibrox.
