The way that Cristian Romero tells it, there was a kind of rage inside him, an overwhelming desire for Tottenham to be better that sometimes overtook him. The defender could not help himself, he needed to make his views known, but when all of the pieces were put together from last season and into the summer, it was difficult to see that he was planning on staying at the club.

Serge Gnabry continued his strong start to the season in Bayern Munich's 5-0 routing of Hamburg SV at the Allianz Arena in the first Bundesliga match back after the international break, where Gnabry also scored for the German national team in their 3-1 World Cup qualifying win over Northern Ireland. With his goal against Hamburg, which was the first of the five Bayern scored in that match, he now has three goals and three assists

Bayern Munich attacker Michael Olise has been linked with a move away from Germany of late, but a pay rise may be on the cards.

SEATTLE Colton McKivitiz has capitalized on the NFL's red-hot market for right tackles, and the 49ers, in turn, have locked in another homegrown starter. McKivitz has secured a three-year, $45 million extension with $27 million guaranteed, ESPN's Adam Schefter first reported Monday morning. McKivitz played all 68 offensive snaps in the 49ers' 17-13, season-opening comeback win at the Seattle Seahawks.

By giving Lucas a new deal, the Seahawks are making a bet on the health of his surgically repaired knee and a rare reinvestment in one of the key pieces of their offensive line. Lucas, 26, flashed dominance as a rookie in 2022 after the Seahawks drafted him in the third round. But he's been limited to 13 games over the past two seasons

FRISCO, Texas -- The Dallas Cowboys have signed running back Hunter Luepke to a two-year extension worth up to $7.5 million, a source told ESPN. The deal, according to the source, includes a little more than $5 million guaranteed.

MYLES GARRETT WALKED up to the dais in the Cleveland Browns' media room on March 14, wearing an all-brown suit -- a color that just weeks before seemed unlikely he'd ever wear again. Colorful dinosaur figurines adorned the ledge in front of the star defensive end. Cupcakes, decorated with an animated caricature of Garrett sitting on a dinosaur, greeted the media, Garrett's representatives and family, and Cleveland's top decision-makers as they entered the room in a state of excitement mixed with great relief.

"I did not want to be in a position where I was missing opportunities, not only to feed my family, but like I said, the brotherhood," Parsons said. "Them guys wanted me on the field as bad as I wanted to be on the field. They look at me as [a] big brother, like, 'he needs to be out there, I know we know we can win with him, I know what he can do out there.' So, yeah, I was worried about that, but now that's resolved."

What Bo Bichette has proven in 2025 is that it is safe to say when he's healthy he is one of the best hitters in MLB.

Through Tuesday's game (August 26) Bichette was slashing .306/.350/.471 with an .821 OPS and 123 OPS+.

CINCINNATI -- The Cincinnati Bengals can cross off the final thing on their offseason checklist. Extend Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins. Find a contract resolution for Trey Hendrickson.

Hendrickson and the Bengals agreed to terms on a revised contract, the team announced on Monday, paving the way for him to play this season.

Ask any member of the Red Sox about Anthony and three themes emerge: His immense talent, his quiet confidence and an old-soul maturity uncommon for someone who couldn't legally drink until May 13. "He is probably the most mature 21-year-old, baseball-wise, I have ever been around in my life," Red Sox third baseman Alex Bregman said. "The moment is never too big for him."
