Unai Emery close to becoming Newcastle United’s new manager
Unai Emery is close to becoming the new manager of Newcastle United, according to the Guardian. Amanda Staveley, who runs the club on a day-to-day basis, reportedly talked to several candidates but was most impressed by the Spanish coach. It is said that the Magpies are currently in negotiations over the Spaniard’s salary but they are hopeful that the 49-year-old will be in place for the Brighton match on Saturday.

Lebron James Was Recently Spotted With His “Twin”
NBA fans are currently scratching their heads over the potential idea of LeBron James having a long twin. During the broadcast of the Los Angeles Lakers‘ recent 95-85 victory over the Houston Rockets, a man with a striking resemblance to King James was spotted. The man seated on the sidelines was seen after LeBron delivered a reverse dunk on the counter-attack to mark his 15 point, eight assist and seven rebounds performance. Snacking on popcorn, LeBron James’ “twin” looks to have a similar physical build, thick beard and was dressed in a gray sweater with a matching fedora reminiscent of the four-time MVP’s usual style. Check out LeBron James’ “twin” and reverse dunk on the counter-attack below. LeBron and … LeBron? ? pic.twitter.com/dQjvMFqYUx — ESPN (@espn) November 1, 2021 DeAndre drop...
Denver Broncos Trade Von Miller to Los Angeles Rams for Two 2022 NFL Draft Picks
Denver Broncos have officially announced the trade of their star linebacker Von Miller. Miller will be heading to the Los Angeles Rams in exchange for two draft picks for the 2022 NFL season. Miller has spent the past decade playing for the Broncos and has been a staple amongst NFL fans. While the news may be surprising for many to see the player that helped the Broncos to their 2016 Super Bowl win go to Los Angeles, Miller has been dealing with many injuries in the last few years. These injuries have undoubtedly put a strain on his involvement with the Broncos. This season, Miller has recorded 4.5 sacks and has landed himself in the NFL’s top 10 defenders in total quarterback pressures. In six games, he was on pace to break double digits in a number of sacks. However, he later suffered an...
Antonio Conte in advanced talks with Tottenham Hotspur to become next manager
Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly in advanced talks with Antonio Conte about becoming their next manager. It is said that the Londoners are ready to give him a £150 million transfer war chest to revive the fortunes of the club. The Italian football expert had turned down the opportunity to take charge at Spurs in the summer as he wasn’t convinced by the ambitions of the club. However, as per The Sun, the Lilywhites chairman Daniel Levy is now ready to offer him a lucrative contract worth £290k-a-week as well as heavy financial backing in the transfer market. Conte has been without a job since he departed Serie A side Inter Milan at the end of the 2020-21 season. The 52-year-old led the San Siro side to the league title last campaign for the first time in 11 yea...
