Manchester City are set to sign Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernandez (Adrian Dennis)Manchester City have agreed to sign Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernandez in a blockbuster 125 million deal ($167 million) that would equal the British transfer record, according to reports on Tuesday.City have been chasing Fernandez for several months and the Argentina international is on the verge of moving to the Etihad Stadium on deadline day.Fernandez's switch would equal the fee paid by Liverpool to Newcastle for Sweden striker Alexander Isak last year.Enzo Maresca worked with Fernandez at Chelsea before taking charge of City in the close-season after his January exit from Stamford Bridge.Maresca was keen to land Fernandez after the recent sale of influential World Cup winner Rodri to Barcelona, as well as the departures of fellow midfielders Bernardo Silva, Nico Gonzalez and Tijjani Reijnders.The 25-year-old would partner England's Elliot Anderson and Moroccan Ayyoub Bouaddi in City's revamped central midfield.Anderson joined for 116 million from Nottingham Forest, while Bouaddi cost 86 million to become the most expensive teenager in Premier League history.Chelsea manager Xabi Alonso had left Fernandez out of his squad for the last two games as speculation swirled over his potential switch to City.Fernandez, who signed for Chelsea from Benfica for 106 million in 2023, angered the Blues last season by expressing interest in joining Real Madrid and was dropped for two matches as a result.The polarising star was sent off in Argentina's World Cup final defeat against Spain in July.He also angered England fans with his provocative celebration of his country's World Cup semi-final over Thomas Tuchel's men.Fernandez has won the UEFA Conference League and the Club World Cup in his time at Chelsea.smg/kca/pb

People stand in line to enter the US Open tennis tournament during a rainy day at the Billie Jean King National Tennis Center (ANGELA WEISS)Rain delayed the start play on the outside courts on Wednesday at the US Open, where top-seeded Alexander Zverev and women's fourth seed Coco Gauff headlined first-round action.The weather won't be a factor for Zverev and Gauff, who are scheduled to play the night session on the covered Arthur Ashe Stadium.Germany's Zverev, who followed up his maiden Grand Slam title with a runner-up finish to Jannik Sinner at Wimbledon, will take on 89th-ranked Italian Lorenzo Sonego while two-time Grand Slam champion Gauff faces Turkey's Zeynep Sonmez.Play started on Ashe with former Australian Open champion Madison Keys taking on Alina Korneeva.Under the roof on Louis Armstrong fifth-seeded French Open men's finalist Flavio Cobolli took on Argentine Francisco Comesana and women's fifth seed Mirra Andreeva -- the Roland Garros champion -- faced Indonesia's Janice Tjen.But reigning Australian Open champion Elena Rybakina's opener against 17-year-old wild card Thea Frodin, scheduled on the roof-less Grandstand court, was among the delayed matches.World number two Rybakina is chasing Aryna Sabalenka's number one ranking as well as a third Grand Slam title, having won her second in Australia in January.She reached the final of the WTA 1000 in Toronto this month before retiring from her quarter-final in Cincinnati with a painful heel injury that left her unable to walk without pain for several days.Frodin, ranked 585th, is making her Grand Slam debut.

Carlos Prates has admitted he expects to get smashed by Islam Makhachev for periods of their fight, should they clash over the UFC welterweight title but he believes he will ultimately knock out the Russian.Prates is seen as the likeliest contender to face Makhachev next, given he is 7-1 in the UFC with seven knockout wins, including stoppages of former champions Jack Della Maddalena and Leon Edwards.Makhachev last fought in August, outpointing Ian Machado Garry, the only man to beat Prates in the UFC. With that win, the 34-year-old Russian confirmed his status as the UFCs pound-for-pound No 1 fighter.UFC welterweight champion Islam Makhachev (Reuters)Still, Prates is confident that Makhachev would suffer the same fate as so many others, if he fought the Brazilian, 33.You look at [Anderson Silvas] fight with Chael Sonnen, Prates told compatriot Gilbert Burns, a former title challenger. Chael Sonnen got the mount in the first round; in the second, [Silva] went out there and knocked the guy out. And thats what I think is going to happen. I think Im going to start by getting smashed, and the first time I manage to get back to my feet and start hurting him, Im going to knock him out somewhere around the fourth or fifth round.If [Machado Garry] was able to get Makhachev off his back, I can do it, too. I became even more confident. Based on the things I saw and the amount of time we have to train, I was like: F***, I think we can do this. I already thought so, and now I saw Ian Garry defend certain positions the same way I do like the back against the cage, I do that a lot.I saw someone saying that [Makhachev] made an adjustment, because [Machado Garry] is very tall and its difficult for Makhachev to get his hooks in, and that defence [Machado Garry] used, I do that every fight. I did it several times against Ian, but he would sit down and try to take my back.I already do everything standing, so theres no danger of losing the position. I was like: Man, I think this guy is going to be in trouble, when I get my hands on him. [...] Im very confident that Im going to bring that belt home.Carlos Prates, a fan favourite, has stopped two former champions in a row (Getty)Prates last fought in May, stopping Della Maddalena in round three after dominating the former champion. That victory came six months after he knocked out Edwards in round two.Prates and Michael Morales are seen as the likeliest options for Makhachevs next opponent, as he seeks a second defence of the welterweight belt, having won it in November by dominating Della Maddalena.Makhachev did so after giving up the lightweight belt earlier in 2025, after achieving a record-breaking four successful title defences.

Add Clemson football coach Dabo Swinney to the long list of coaches against professional athletes returning to college sports.Swinney, whose Tigers ironically play LSU to kick off the season on Saturday, Sept. 5, said on Tuesday, Sept. 1 the sport is in a "no-governance" state.REQUIRED READING: Christopher Vizzina named Clemson starting quarterback vs LSU by Dabo Swinney"It's kind of embarrassing," he told reporters in his pre-LSU news conference. "I mean, honestly, it's just embarrassing that that's where we are. I don't blame the kids. People trying to take advantage of the system I think it's just embarrassing where we are in college football. And we've been there for a while, so I just keep my energy, keep my focus on the things that I control and the things that matter with these kids here and our team."Swinney then dropped an interesting sentence before finishing his thought."No pun intended but were just going to stay in our lane."He continued: "It's embarrassing, I mean it really is. We have no rules. There's no governance. I mean, it's a joke. There's zero rules, and when you enforce rules, somebody just goes and finds a judge to say 'no, you can't enforce that rule.' Never did I think I'd be living in an era like this, but that's where we are."Swinney and Clemson have only started dipping into the transfer portal in recent seasons out of necessity, after he disagreed with the recruiting process that has become way of life in college football. It's a stark difference from first-year LSU coach Lane Kiffin, who has agreements in place to bring back several players who went through the NFL draft process and attended camps.Kiffin defended his stance on adding former Ole Miss players tight end Dae'Quan Wright and defensive lineman Zxavian Harris, who are both currently eligible. The SEC is fighting back on the ongoing legal subject."Every one of them was emphatic that if they can help us win, bring them," Kiffin said Aug. 31. "We understand we have a team that's practiced together and worked together all off season, but one of them said, 'Hey, this is how it works at the next level and this is how the real world works.'Swinney also made a subtle jab at LSU and the overall subject of NFL players returning to college on Aug. 31, mentioning Clemson could've added former running back Adam Randall, a fifth-round pick in 2026 that was placed on injured reserve to start the season."He's playing for the Ravens now," Swinney said. "Maybe if they would've waived him, we could've gotten Adam back. That would've been nice."This article originally appeared on USA TODAY: Dabo Swinney calls out LSU, NFL players returning to college: 'It's embarrassing'

STATELINE, NEVADA - Tony Romo stands on the first green during the final round of the American Century Championship 2026 at Edgewood Tahoe Golf Course. (Photo by Eakin Howard/Getty Images)Eakin Howard via Getty ImagesFormer Dallas Cowboys quarterback and current CBS Sports NFL analyst Tony Romo released a statement on Tuesday saying that multiple back surgeries during his 14-year career led him down a road toward a dependence on pain medication and and over-reliance on alcohol.The statement from Romo comes after he plead no contest on Tuesday to operating while intoxicated after being arrested by the Milwaukee County Sheriff's Office in July.

He added that he is working with doctors to address his health and that he is grateful for the support hes received from people around the NFL.Join or create a Yahoo Fantasy Football league for the 2026 NFL seasonView this post on InstagramFootball has shaped nearly every meaningful part of my life. I played for more then 20 years, including 14 in the NFL with the Dallas Cowboys. After my retirement, CBS gave me the profound honor of staying close to the game through broadcasting.Playing taught me the power of relationships, the strength of a team, and the toughness to face failure head-on with honesty, resilience, and the determination to do better.This is one of those moments when I am leaning on everything football taught me.This morning, I faced a recent personal failure by pleading no contest to a civil offense for OWI in Wisconsin. I own this completely.Multiple back surgeries ended by career earlier than I expected and left me with constant, debilitating pain. That pain led to a dependence on pain medication, and my efforts to get off those medications led to an over-reliance on alcohol.As I have taught my three young sons: when you fall short, you stand up and take full responsibility. That is an important first step. The harder and more important step is examining the path that brought you here and making the changes necessary to move forward.That path requires honesty.None of this is an excuse. These are my failures, and I take responsibility for them.The past month has been difficult, but it had also been personally significant. It has required me to confront and own my mistakes fully to the Lord, to myself, to my family, and now to the public.I am working closely with a team of doctors to address my health and make the necessary changes. I am deeply grateful for the support of my family, my friends, and the NFL community including players, coaches, and owners. Your encouragement has meant more than you know.As I turn my attention to my health, my family, and, in time, my return to CBS, I kindly ask for privacy during this period.Romo's driving privileges have been revoked for six months, according to court records, and he is to attend and complete an alcohol assessment program. He is also to pay $834 in fines by Nov. 2 or his driver's license could be suspended for up to a year. An ignition interlock device will also be installed on all vehicles he owns and operates for at least one year after he is issued a license by the Wisconsin Department of Transportation.Following his arrest, Romo was placed on leave by CBS Sports and has since been replaced by J.J. Watt on the networks top NFL broadcast team with Jim Nantz and sideline reporter Tracy Wolfson. His future with the network remains uncertain, with company president David Berson declining to provide a timetable for a final decision while speaking with reporters in August.
