Japanese Defender Rion Ishikawa Joins Everton: A Game-Changer for the Toffees.

The summer transfer window for Everton Women has been nothing short of a statement of intent, and perhaps no signing epitomizes this more than the arrival of Japanese international defender Rion Ishikawa from Urawa Red Diamonds. At just 22 years old, Ishikawa brings a blend of experience, talent, and a winning mentality that could genuinely be a game-The Toffees are set to start a new and important era, with Goodison Park as their new and lasting home.  This isn't just about bolstering the defense; it's about signaling ambition, embracing a global scouting network, and recognizing the growing power and tactical sophistication of Japanese women's football. To truly appreciate the significance of Ishikawa's arrival, we need to delve into several key aspects: her playing style, Everton's defensive needs, Japanese players' greater impact in the WSL, as well as manager Brian Sorensen's strategic strategy.

Milan met with Roberto de Zerbi's entourage.


Fabio Paratici, the incoming sporting director of Milan, met with Marseille manager Roberto de Zerbi's entourage.

Calciomercato reported today, via TeleLombardia, that Paratici met with agent Edoardo Crnjar earlier today. He founded Excellence Sports, which represents Roberto de Zerbi and a number of other players and coaches in the game.

The Italian is a candidate to become Milan's next manager, and Paratici will have already joined the Rossoneri. While De Zerbi is an outsider, he is one of the candidates on the shortlist.

Crnjar also represents Barcelona defender Ronald Araujo, who might be an option for Milan in the summer. Paratici may have also spoken with Crnjar about the Brazilian, and the former Tottenham director appears to have been an admirer of the centre-back for some time.

Juventus attempted to sign Araujo in January, but the deal did not materialize.

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 ...
