Bournemouth are keen to rekindle their interest in Leicester City winger Demarai Gray, according to reports.
The Cherries had bids of up to £25million rejected for the England under-21 international in the summer, but could be set to return when the transfer window opens later this week.
Eddie Howe led Bournemouth to 12th place and Premier League survival and the Sun on Sundayreport he wants to bolster his squad by bringing in Gray.
Gray has made no secret in the past of his desire to be given more game-time at Leicester, but has been handed far more of a chance under Claude Puel.

The 21-year-old has started 17 Premier League games this season, all but one of them coming under Puel’s stewardship.
Despite the speculation in the summer, Gray signed a new four-year contract in November.
With Riyad Mahrez expected to leave this summer, it is even more unlikely that City would be willing to listen to any further offers for Gray.

German FA officials at World Cup fined for celebration provoking Sweden

Source:  www.espn.com/soccer/germany/.../german-fa-officials-at-world-cup-fined- for-celebration-provoking-sweden FIFA has fined two German football federation officials for provoking Sweden's bench while celebrating victory in a World Cup game. FIFA says Georg Behlau and Ulrich Voigt must each pay 5,000 Swiss francs ($5,040) fines, and were reprimanded for their unsporting behavior. Apologies by the two men and promises  not to work "within the stadium premises''  when Germany plays South Korea on Wednesday were taken into account by FIFA's disciplinary panel. Team media officer Voigt and the director of the DFB office for the national team, Behlau, charged towards the Sweden bench pumping their fists when Toni Kroos' stoppage-time goal gave Germany a 2-1 victory on Saturday. The enraged Swedish coaching staff and reserve players then stood up and immediately confronted them, shoving them back towards their technical area. FIFA says Swedis...
Arsene Wenger  the end of an era. Probably the greatest manager that managed the great team of Arsenal. Born in Strasbourg, France, Arsene Wenger makes his departure from the Emirates. he has a history of managing Monaco, Nancy, Nagoya grampus and finally Arsenal. His football career brought him 4 goals in total before his career of managing. Wenger will step down from his managerial role at Arsenal at the end of the season after 22 years in charge of the club. His last game takes in a trip to Huddersfield on Sunday (3pm) with Arsenal still looking for their first away point of 2018. Wenger has largely brought success to  Arsenal , winning three Premier Leagues as well as seven FA Cups. The Frenchman was also an integral part of the north London club’s move from their old Highbury ground to their new Emirates Stadium. But it’s the way Wenger has got his Arsenal players thinking that the 68-year-old wants to be mainly remembered for.     ...

Belgium Beats England, but Faces Tougher World Cup Bracket

source:  https://www.nytimes.com/2018/06/28/sports/world-cup/england-vs-belgium.html MOSCOW — Adnan Januzaj curled in a left-footed shot in the second half to give a second-string Belgium a 1-0 victory over a second-string England on Thursday. The win continued Belgium’s strong start to the World Cup — it joined Croatia and Uruguay as the only teams to win all three games in the group stage — but it set the Red Devils on a potentially far more difficult path in the knockouts. Belgium won the game in Kaliningrad despite making nine changes to its lineup, and amid a discussion about whether it might be better to finish second in the group instead of winning it. With its victory, Belgium won its third game at the World Cup but advanced to what most consider the tougher side of the  knockout-round bracket , one that includes Brazil, Mexico, France, Argentina, Uruguay and Portugal. England, which made eight changes to its starting lineup in an effort to rest its star...
