Fulham and Lazio are both battling for the signature of Chelsea winger Callum Hudson-Odoi, 90min understands. Hudson-Odoi was left out of Chelsea's pre-season squad to continue negotiations over a move away from his boyhood club, with everyone involved ready to part ways with summer. The winger has attracted interest from across the globe but sources have confirmed to 90min that Lazio and Fulham have both ramped up conversations with Hudson-Odoi to try and get a deal done. Lazio attempted to steal an early march on proceedings by reaching out to the player at a time when Fulham's transfer plans were in limbo due to uncertainty surrounding manager Marco Silva, whose decision to reject Saudi Arabian side Al Ahli has now allowed the Cottagers to focus on new signings. The Serie A side are led by former Chelsea boss Maurizio Sarri, who is keen on a reunion with Hudson-Odoi and can offer the 22-year-old the chance to play in the Champions League.

If you aren’t interested in a bet that will take 9 innings, one of the shortest-lasting bets you can make in an MLB game is if a run will be scored in the first inning. All it takes is 6 outs to glory, and one swing of the bat can make or break your bet. There is also a lot of value in these bets because the odds are usually very well-priced, and if you’re not a fan of sweating out your bets for 3 hours then this one will take only about 15 minutes to win or lose.

Jordan Henderson was left out of Liverpool's matchday squad for their pre-season friendly against Karlsruher on Wednesday as he inches closer to leaving the club. Interest from Saudi Arabian side Al Ettifaq, who are currently managed by Reds legend Steven Gerrard, was registered before Liverpool set off for their pre-season tour of Germany and Henderson made it clear he would be willing to make the move. Despite the ongoing transfer talks, Jurgen Klopp opted to name Henderson in his squad for this summer's preparations, but the decision was made to keep the 33-year-old away from Wednesday's matchday group as talks behind the scenes ramped up. Al Ettifaq have been in talks with Liverpool over a fee, with the Reds begrudgingly prepared to listen to offers after Henderson voiced a desire to seal the move. As such, those negotiations are understood to be nearing a positive conclusion. Henderson has agreed to a three-year contract in Saudi Arabia and appears to be inching close

Manchester City's squad could look rather different by the time they kick off their 2023/24 season, with a number of key first team players potentially heading for the exit door if they get their way.
