Arsene Wenger reveals he was offered the Manchester United job
Former Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has now revealed that he was offered the chance to manage Manchester United. Wenger left Arsenal in 2018 having spent 22 years in charge of the Gunners.

Wenger admitted that he was emotionally invested and therefore he turned down several opportunities to manage other top teams. Apparently, Wenger was offered the French national team job along with prestigious managerial roles at Real Madrid, Juventus, Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester United. Wenger has also reflected on the internal tensions inside the Arsenal board from 2007 and how the Gunners never really managed to return to the top of English football ev...

West Ham star on the verge of signing new contract
Italian footballer Angelo Ogbonna is on the verge of signing a new contract at West Ham, according to CalcioMercato. The 33-year-old’s contract at the London Stadium is set to expire next summer, having signed a five-year deal in 2017.

NBA Players Comment on New Wilson Game Ball Amid League-Wide Shooting Slump
The NBA decided to change their official game ball supplier from Spalding to Wilson this offseason. Wilson was the official maker of the NBA basketball for the first 37 years of the league before Spalding took over for the next 37.

While a short offseason and new foul call interpretations have been subject to blame, some trainers, players, and analysts are now pointing towards the new Wilson ball as a possible issue. “Not to make an excuse about the ball, but it’s a different basketball. It doesn’t have the same touch/softne...

Kyrie Irving Could Possibly Make a One-Game Return to the 2022 NBA All-Stars
While Kyrie Irving may not be returning to the court to play for the Brooklyn Nets this season due to his vaccination status, it does not take him out of the running for the upcoming 2022 NBA All-Star Game. With the 71st NBA All-Star Game hosted at Rocket Morgage FieldHouse in Cleveland, fans might just have a chance at seeing Irving return to the basketball court, just not playing for the Nets. The NBA updated its All-Star voting process to allow all players on the roster to be placed on the ballot. If Irving is voted in, he still has a chance to play since the New York City mandate only bars him from playing at the Barclays Center or Madison Square Garden. So far, the Brooklyn Nets management have told Irving that he can rejoin the team once he is fully vaccinated and read to be “a full ...
