Arsenal and Tottenham are both interested in signing Italy's Calafiori.

Riccardo Calafiori shone on the international scene at Euro 2024, forcing Arsenal and Tottenham to pursue the Italian defender.

The 22-year-old left-footed centre back was a key member of Thiago Motta's Bologna side this season, helping the club qualify for the Champions League for the first time in six decades. His work piqued the interest of Juventus, who attempted to outbid their competitors for his services.

Juventus negotiated personal terms with Calafiori on a five-year contract for approximately €2.5 million net per season, but their €25 million offer to Bologna was rejected in May. The Rossoblu directors expected his value to rise after the European Championship, and their patience has paid off.

North London Derby for Calafiori 

Calafiori has swiftly emerged as a major target for both Arsenal and Tottenham ahead of the summer transfer window, with the two Premier League teams already making bids.

Spurs have been in communication with Bologna and are preparing to make a move, while the Gunners have begun negotiating with his agent, Alessandro Lucci. Bologna is seeking for a sum of roughly €50 million for the promising 22-year-old.

Thierry Henry was denied a joyful homecoming as France was defeated by gold medal winners Spain.

Exactly 36 years after Vinnie Jones, Dave Beasant, Lawrie Sanchez, and others ripped up the rulebook to propel Bobby Gould's Wimbledon to a storied FA Cup victory, Thierry Henry's France fell agonisingly short of capturing an emotional Olympic gold medal in front of a sold-out Parc des Princes in Paris. Henry, who gave his young French team the nickname the 'Crazy Ones' due to their fun-loving nature, won nearly everything as a player, and despite the stars appearing to align for a historic gold medal on home turf, the Arsenal legend was overshadowed by Santi Denia's slick Spaniards in a dramatic 5-3 extra-time defeat. Sergio Camello of Rayo Vallecano was their unexpected late nemesis, dunking French goalkeeper Guillaume Restes with 100 minutes on the clock to startle a stunned capacity crowd. And he delivered a virtual carbon copy of that finish with the game's final kick, charging in on goal as the French flung bodies forward to slot past Restes and cruelly

🏅Mateta shines as France defeats Egypt, securing a gold medal clash with Spain.

On Monday night, France hosted two Olympic semi-finals. This is what occurred. France advances to the final following a fierce clash with Egypt. In a tense contest, France rallied from a 1-0 deficit to defeat Egypt 2-1 in extra time. After a poor start, France improved just before the interval, with Loïc Badé hitting the post after Joris Chotard's pass. Alexandre Lacazette had a golden opportunity to score in the second half, but he hesitated and ultimately missed the shot. After absorbing all of France's pressure, Egypt proceeded to the other end, where Mahmoud Saber smashed a powerful attempt into the roof of the net. The goal ignited the game, and Hamza Alaa made a wonderful save on a Jean-Philippe Mateta header. France then hit the post twice in quick succession, with Lacazette's shot and Badé's follow-up hitting the woodwork. Les Bleus equalised thanks to a brilliantly weighted ball from Michael Olise, which Mateta converted decisively. France requested for
