ESPNcricinfo staff02-Oct-2025

County champions Nottinghamshire have appointed Richard Kenyon, who has spent the last decade working in commercial and communications roles at Everton Football Club, as their new chief executive.Kenyon will take over from Lisa Pursehouse, who announced her intention to step down earlier this year and has now left the club after 14 seasons in the role. Her last week at the club coincided with their first Championship title since 2010, which was clinched with victory over Warwickshire at Trent Bridge in the final round of fixtures.During his 11 years at Everton, Kenyon worked in various marketing and communications roles, including three-and-a-half years as chief commercial and communications officer, and served as chief executive of the charity Everton in the Community. Notts said that he had played an “instrumental role” in the club’s move from Goodison Park to the new Hill Dickinson Stadium.Related

Kenyon’s appointment comes at a time when Notts are preparing to assume operational control of Trent Rockets in the Hundred. An announcement in the completion of their £40 million deal with Cain International and Ares Management is imminent, with Notts retaining a 51% controlling stake in the new joint-venture.Andy Hunt, Notts’ chair, said that Kenyon’s experience at Everton made him the standout candidate: “His leadership at Everton spanned critical areas including commercial strategy, global brand development, major infrastructure projects, and multi-stakeholder consultation – all directly relevant to the current and future ambitions of our club.”Kenyon described his appointment as “a tremendous privilege”. He said: “It’s a great credit to the outgoing CEO and her team that I’ll be joining a club in such a strong position. I can’t wait to get started later this year and look forward to working closely with the general committee, the executive team, and our members to make the most of the opportunities that lie ahead for this great club and all of its teams.”Michael Temple, Notts’ commercial director, will serve as interim chief executive before Kenyon takes up his new role in December.Several counties are changing their chief executives over the 2025-26 winter. Emma White, who has previously worked in rugby union and horse racing, has replaced Sean Jarvis at Leicestershire, while Kent’s chief operating officer Nimmo Reid will fill the role on an interim basis while the club search for a successor to Simon Storey. Sussex’s Pete Fitzboyden has also stepped down after two seasons for personal reasons.

Celtic are now targeting a move to sign Wessam Abou Ali from Columbus Crew, according to reports, with Wilfried Nancy looking to bring one of his star men to Scotland.

At long last, the Bhoys are closing in on a managerial appointment. The Scottish giants have taken their time, waiting for the right appointment, with Martin O’Neill doing an impressive job as interim boss in the meantime.

The 73-year-old has reiterated every week that he will happily step aside once Celtic have found their next permanent option and that looks set to happen sooner rather than later amid recent reports.

The Columbus Crew manager looks set to take his first job in European football and has the task of bridging the gap on Hearts in a shock Scottish Premiership title race.

O’Neill, meanwhile, will bow out of his second stint in charge after steadying the ship. Whether he’s still in charge by the time that Celtic travel to face Feyenoord this Thursday is the big question.

Speaking to reporters, the veteran manager said: “The answer is this: the game is on Thursday so the plane leaves on Wednesday. They better make their minds up very quickly.”

Of course, if Nancy doesn’t arrive in time, then O’Neill will have the opportunity to win his first European game of his second stint in charge to cap off a small tenure full of nostalgia.

The ball will then be in the new manager’s court, who has already reportedly identified the need for a new striker at Celtic Park and set his sights on exactly who that new striker should be.

Celtic now lining up January move for Columbus Crew star

According to the Scottish Sun, Celtic are now targeting a move to sign Abou Ali from Columbus Crew in the January transfer window. The 26-year-old Palestinian striker has been one of Nancy’s best players in the MLS and quickly won the faith of his manager after arriving from Ahly SC.

Described as “clinical” by Columbus Crew general manager Issa Tall, Abou Ali first grabbed the headlines when he scored a perfect hat-trick against Porto at the Club World Cup as the MLS side watched on, waiting to secure his signature.

Since then, the 26-year-old has only impressed even more in America and may yet be on his way to Scotland to strike an instant reunion with Nancy.

With four goal involvements in five games under Nancy, Celtic would be wise to go all out to sign the 6’1 forward, who could solve their own striker problem in January.

Whether Columbus Crew will allow their star striker to leave with their manager is another question, however. Losing Nancy is already set to deal them a blow in its own right, let alone their top star alongside him.

O Remo fez a temporada dos sonhos em 2025. Com uma boa dose de emoção, o time comandado por Guto Ferreira deu uma arrancada incrível na reta final da Série B e conquistou o objetivo que muitos torcedores sequer sonhavam: o acesso para a elite do futebol brasileiro depois de 32 anos. Uma campanha para coroar o ano mágico e recolocar a região Norte no mapa da Série A.

O ano começou cheio de incertezas para o torcedor azulino, que viu o time subir da Série C para mais uma participação na Segunda Divisão. Logo em fevereiro, o Remo foi eliminado para o São Raimundo-RR nas oitavas da Copa Verde, mas conseguiu se recuperar em seguida com o título estadual, nos pênaltis, diante do rival Paysandu, que acabou rebaixado para a Série C.

Começou, então, Série B, e o Remo deixou boas impressões nas primeiras rodadas com nove jogos de invencibilidade, resultados que colocaram o time na parte de cima da tabela, ainda sob o comando de Daniel Paulista. Parte desses pontos foram conquistados com o brilho do atacante Pedro Rocha, artilheiro da Segundona com 15 gols.

Depois de tropeços e resultados inesperados, o Remo chegou a ser comandado pelo português António Oliveira e pelo interino Flávio Garcia até a chegada de Guto Ferreira na 29ª rodada, que representou uma virada de chave para a equipe. Foram seis vitórias seguidas com o novo treinador e oito jogos de invencibilidade que praticamente selaram o acesso.

O último – e dramático – ato foi diante de um Mangueirão com mais de 47 mil pessoas, que presenciaram a vitória histórica por 3 a 1 em confronto direto contra o Goiás antes de explodir em êxtase com a conquista do acesso.

Em conversa com o Lance!, o jornalista Mateus Miranda, da TV Cultura do Pará, listou três pontos que foram fundamentais para a volta do Remos à elite: gestão das dívidas, torcida e as chegadas de Marcos Braz (executivo de futebol) e Guto Ferreira.

— O primeiro ponto, eu diria, foi a política de melhor administração do pagamento de dívidas que o clube adotou a partir de uma gestão iniciada há cerca de cinco ou seis anos, com o presidente Fábio Bentes. Foi uma gestão mais austera, que priorizou justamente o pagamento dessas dívidas, permitindo que o clube se tornasse mais saudável financeiramente e colhesse os frutos disso agora, nos últimos dois anos, já com o presidente Tonhão. Foram dois anos em que o Remo conseguiu fazer muitos investimentos na Série C e também na Série B do Campeonato Brasileiro, o que culminou em dois acessos seguidos — detalhou Mateus.

— A chegada do Braz impulsiona o Remo no mercado, principalmente da metade para o fim do segundo turno. Apesar do trabalho ruim de Antônio Oliveira, houve um grande acerto do Remo ao contratar Guto Ferreira, que, para mim, é o terceiro fator que explica esse acesso. Guto Ferreira comandou o Remo em 10 jogos, conseguiu oito vitórias, um empate e apenas uma derrota — completou.

Números do Remo em 2025

Temporada: 25 vitórias, 17 empates e 11 derrotas em 53 jogos, com 81 gols marcados e 50 gols sofridos;

Paraense: 8 vitórias, 2 empates e 2 derrotas em 12 jogos, com 24 gols marcados e 8 gols sofridos;

Copa Verde: 1 empate em 1 jogo (derrota nos pênaltis), com 1 gol marcado e 1 gol sofrido;

Copa do Brasil: 1 vitória e 1 derrota em 2 jogos, com 5 gols marcados e 2 gols sofridos;

Série B: 16 vitórias, 14 empates e 8 derrotas em 38 jogos, com 51 gols marcados e 39 gols sofridos.

O que esperar do time em 2026

A equipe do Remo, no entanto, vai precisar correr contra o tempo para montar o elenco de olho na próxima temporada. O time paraense deu o azar de, logo no ano do seu retorno, o Campeonato Brasileiro começar no final de janeiro, encurtando a margem de planejamento e de erro.

Além de reforçar o elenco de forma significativa para uma competição que tem outro nível técnico, o Remo também se preocupa com a contratação de um treinador, já que a ideia de renovar com Guto Ferreira foi frustrada por entraves contratuais. A grande missão do novo técnico será manter o clube na Série A, principal objetivo do próximo ano.

— Tem uma geração inteira de torcedores que nunca viu o clube na Série A, que nunca acompanhou o Remo na era dos pontos corridos. Muitos que viajaram o Brasil acompanhando a campanha do acesso também vão viver essa experiência pela primeira vez. Existe, portanto, uma grande expectativa de ver o Remo competindo bem na Série A. E esse é um elemento com o qual o clube vai precisar saber lidar. Outro desafio que não pode ser ignorado, e que talvez seja o principal para clubes do Norte e do Nordeste nas competições nacionais, é o logístico. O Remo será o time que mais viajará quilômetros na Série A do Campeonato Brasileiro. É o clube que terá de fazer mais deslocamentos — concluiu Mateus.

Ireland ended the day six down, still another 333 runs from the target with one day to go

Mohammad Isam22-Nov-2025

Bangladesh are four wickets short of a series sweep against Ireland, on the day Taijul Islam overtook Shakib Al Hasan as the hosts’ highest wicket-taker. The visitors went to stumps on the fourth day on 176 for 6 in pursuit of an improbable 509, with Taijul having taken three wickets in the innings so far.Taijul took his 247th wicket to lead Bangladesh’s Test bowling charts when he trapped Ireland captain Andy Balbirnie lbw for 13 as the first wicket of the chase in the sixth over. Paul Stirling, the other opener, also fell to Taijul, caught at short leg where Mahmudul Hasan Joy took a simple catch. Hasan Murad trapped Cade Carmichael for 19 in the 20th over and Ireland were 77 for 3 just before tea.Mushfiqur’s memorable 100th Test•ESPNcricinfo Ltd

Harry Tector struck three fours off Taijul after the break and brought up his fifty off 78 balls but he handed a catch to Mushfiqur Rahim, who ran in from the deep. Three overs later, Khaled Mahmud had Lorcan Tucker, who was unbeaten on 75 in the first innings, edge one behind for 7 and Ireland were in trouble at 127 for 5.Bangladesh then went on to drop Stephen Doheny three times, leaving the small crowd in Mirpur frustrated. Murad first dropped him at short midwicket on 2 before wicketkeeper Litton Das couldn’t latch on to a sharp chance when Doheny was on 13. Ebadot Hossain also put down a chance when he couldn’t hold on to a catch running in from deep square leg when Doheny was on 14. Taijul finally removed him on 15, when he missed an arm ball.Earlier, Mominul Haque’s dismissal on 87 led to Bangladesh’s declaration shortly after the lunch break on 297 for 4. Mushfiqur was unbeaten on 53, having already struck a century in the first innings.Mominul struck 10 fours in his 118-ball knock, as he continued to look for a century since Kanpur last year. The openers Shadman Islam and Mahmudul also struck fifties, as they added 119 runs and Mahmudul had fallen on the third evening for 60. Shadman’s was the first wicket to fall on the fourth morning when he was lbw to Andy McBrine for 78 and captain Najmul Hossain Shanto who handed a catch to gully for Jordan Neill’s first Test wicket. Mushfiqur joined Mominul and the duo put on a brisk century stand of 123 from 167 balls to power the lead past 500.

Jamie Carragher has delivered his verdict on Arsenal and their Premier League title challenge after their dramatic 2-1 loss at Aston Villa.

Arsenal suffer first defeat in 18 games as five-point lead slips

Arsenal’s agonising defeat at Villa has ended the Gunners’ 18-game unbeaten streak whilst threatening their title aspirations, with Man City’s subsequent 3-0 dismantling of Sunderland now reducing the gap to just two points.

Emiliano Buendia’s 95th minute winner highlighted familiar weaknesses that have plagued previous title challenges.

Mikel Arteta’s makeshift defence, deprived of William Saliba and Gabriel through injury, conceded soft goals that championship-winning teams simply cannot afford.

Matty Cash’s thunderous opener exploited Eberechi Eze’s defensive negligence, whilst Buendia’s late intervention punished Arsenal’s inability to clear.

Leandro Trossard’s second-half equaliser briefly sparked hope of a hard-fought victory in the Midlands, yet Arsenal ultimately succumbed to Villa’s relentless pressure.

The Gunners are looking to bolster their attacking options.

While Arsenal have only lost twice this campaign, Arteta will be hoping Saturday’s defeat doesn’t sap his squad’s confidence given the manner of their slip up.

Cristhian Mosquera’s ankle injury compounds their current defensive crisis, forcing 16-year-old Marli Salmon onto the bench against Villa.

Man City ruthlessly capitalised on Arsenal’s hiccup, delivering their arguable most complete performance this season against an in-form Sunderland side.

Rúben Dias opened the scoring with a spectacular 25-yard thunderbolt before Josko Gvardiol doubled the advantage through a towering header from Phil Foden’s corner.

Foden completed the scoring after 65 minutes, converting Rayan Cherki’s outrageous rabona cross for a serious highlight reel moment.

Pep Guardiola praised it as potentially City’s finest 95-minute display this season, emphasising how it is consistency rather than individual results that determines success.

The title race has dramatically intensified, with Aston Villa themselves now genuine contenders sitting third, merely three points behind Arsenal following seven consecutive wins in all competitions.

Make no mistake, it is all to play for, and Carragher is convinced that Arsenal have a ‘huge problem’ in the form of Foden.

Jamie Carragher says Phil Foden is a 'huge problem' for Arsenal

Speaking on Monday Night Football, Carragher insists that the England international, alongside Erling Haaland, poses a massive threat to Arsenal’s quest to win a first Premier League title in 22 years.

After a difficult 2024/2025, Arsenal have every right to be concerned, as Foden is now back to his imperious best.

Foden has emerged as City’s most potent attacking threat bar Haaland during their resurgent title challenge, scoring nine goals across all competitions so far this term.

The 25-year-old has also notched six Premier League goals in thirteen appearances, averaging 0.51 goals per ninety minutes whilst contributing two assists.

His recent purple patch has been particularly devastating, with five goals scored in his last three league games. His goal involvement rate of 0.69 per ninety minutes highlights his constant influence in the final third, with Guardiola praising his exceptional qualities following Saturday’s performance.

Foden already surpassed his career milestone of 100 City goals during the summer’s Club World Cup, cementing his status amongst the club’s elite scorers.

His personal renaissance couldn’t have come at a worse time for Arsenal, but luckily for Arteta, the title is still theirs to lose.
