“Lats can be pretty difficult,” Verlander said. “Talking with doctors and looking at the scans, it’s definitely not worst-case scenario. Best-case scenario would be nothing. It’s probably somewhere in the middle of that. I don’t think any injury would be considered positive, but when you’ve got a bunch of things running through your head and having dealt with it before and having it probably be more serious then, I guess it’s positive to hear it’s not quite that bad....

The Serie A champions have already reached an agreement with the Poland international over a five-year deal worth €4 million per season, but they have yet to agree terms with Arsenal. Juventus are confident of landing the 27-year-old in the days to come, though, with Arsenal’s £13m (€14.7m) pricetag unlikely to cause any major obstacles. Neymar: I could join Man Utd…or Eibar! Szczesny spent the past two seasons on loan at Roma after losing his starting berth at Emirates Stadium and has no interest in a move back to London....

Juventus has no intention of taking Kingsley Coman back if Bayern Munich declines to make the winger’s loan deal permanent, sources tell Goal.

Man Utd move off as Griezmann extends deal The Brazil international emerged as a target for the Serie A champions in recent weeks and talks with his representatives on Tuesday suggest that he is willing to move to Turin. Injuries limited the 26-year-old’s involvement in Bayern’s Bundesliga-winning campaign under Carlo Ancelotti, starting just 14 of the 23 games he played. While Ancelotti is said to be willing to let him go, with Bayern unhappy with an interview Costa gave to Bild am Sonntag in February in which he admitted to not being happy, the Italian coach will look to add another winger to his squad before allowing the deal to go through, even after the addition of Serge Gnabry from Werder Bremen....

The Germany international, who is yet to make his debut following his loan move from Schalke in August, has aggravated a previous injury in his left leg. Juventus 18/1 to win Champions League A statement on Juve’s website read: “Initial examinations suggest it is a grade one-two strain and the estimated recovery time is around four weeks. “A more precise recovery time will be established in due course following daily monitoring of the player and further diagnostic tests....

A Dumisani Zuma goal was enough to take Amakhosi to 22 points after 15 league games, and Komphela is hoping that they can keep up the momentum going into the second half of the campaign. Chiefs resume the season with a clash against SuperSport United in January, and Komphela wants his charges to come back with the same energy they showed against the Urban Warriors. “We hope we’ll keep up the momentum, but we now have to go off for a minor recess and be back for the game against SuperSport....

The vice president now appears to be a more polarizing figure than Biden, recording both a higher approval and disapproval rating. The poll conducted from December 1 to 16 showed Harris’ approval rating stood at 44 percent and her disapproval was 54 percent, while 1 percent had no opinion. Gallup found that 43 percent of respondents approved of the president, while 51 percent disapproved of him and 6 percent had no opinion....

But the truth is, if Harris were white and male, she wouldn’t be vice president. Because Harris is our first diversity hire V.P. This was never a secret, or even an issue. Then-candidate Joe Biden was very explicit about his plans to pick a woman of color to share the ticket. After it became clear that Biden was to be the Democrats’ nominee for president in 2020, Biden said during a CNN-Univision debate, “If I’m elected president, my Cabinet, my administration will look like the country, and I commit that I will, in fact, appoint a, pick a woman to be vice president....

Yes, 43-year-old Lucas Browne. Facing off against Junior Fa, he of 19 wins, one loss (to Joe Parker) and 10 KO’s, the punter’s money was hard against Browne. And then this happened. Fa hasn’t fought since the Parker loss in 2021 and didn’t make it out of the first round against Browne, eating two solid overhand rights. Meanwhile, Browne now finds himself on a two-fight win streak, having dusted Faiga Opelu in December 2021....

“There will be an asterisk against the results…because they will be preliminary obviously, pending further investigation,” said IOC spokesperson Mark Adams, who confirmed that the post-event medal ceremony has been canceled, despite the absence of final scores. Following her top-rated performance in Tuesday’s short program, Valieva, 15, leads three ROC figure skaters who currently occupy the top four places of the women’s singles competition. Adams cut a frustrated figure at times during Wednesday’s daily press conference in Beijing, having fielded more questions about the IOC’s handling of Valieva’s case, which he stressed was still pending....

Despite spurning some gilt-edged chances either side of the interval at Wembley, Kane found his scoring form in the 54th minute when he headed home from Ben Davies’ cross, before he brought up his half-century 12 minutes later. It is a remarkable feat for Kane, who has made a total of 48 appearances for club and country so far this calendar year, playing 4044 minutes and attempting 228 shots....

Kane, three days after a locker-room argument with teammates and a skipped game, will have surgery on his left shoulder and miss 4-6 months, the Jets announced on Friday. Kane, according to multiple reports, had been playing through an injury for most of the season. The most important outcome of the surgery is that the Jets have even less reason to trade him until the offseason; after this week’s disaster, they’d certainly been looking to make a move before the March 2 trade deadline....

A tense Group F encounter burst into life in the closing stages as Leigh Griffiths scored two late free-kicks to put Scotland into a 2-1 lead after Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain had opened the scoring. But Kane – named England captain with Wayne Rooney omitted from the squad – levelled deep into injury time from Raheem Sterling’s cross to earn a point. Kane bails England out, but needs help “It is a special day....

Wayne Rooney, still technically the team captain, missed out on the squad after a season-long struggle for form and fitness for Manchester United, handing Kane the opportunity to become the latest man to take on the armband. WATCH: Alli nutmegs Stones Jordan Henderson and Joe Hart have both previously captained their country under Gareth Southgate and the manager confirmed that he intends to keep mixing it up. For Kane it marks a fitting end to a wonderful season, having cemented himself as one of the world’s top strikers with a tally of 29 Premier League goals, enough for the league’s Golden Boot....

The Chiefs overcame a 10-point deficit in the fourth quarter to cap a season that Kansas City has waited half a century for. It also marks the first Super Bowl win for Chiefs coach Andy Reid, and the first for Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, who won the MVP during the 2018 season—his first as a starter. The 49ers held the Chiefs offense to a three-and-out on Kansas City’s first possession of the game....

Lee’s Summit School District has confirmed to Newsweek that it received one of the letters but added that it disagreed with Schmitt’s claims. “The District will be responding through its legal counsel, and is prepared to defend in court its duty under Missouri law to protect the health and safety of its students and staff,” a district spokesperson wrote.
