Real Madrid given renewed hope of signing leading defensive targetAs well as Yan Diomande and Rodri, Real Madrid have not yet ruled out the possible signing of another central defender. Ibrahima Konate has also been brought in as a free agent, but head coach Jose Mourinho wants to have another option at his disposal in time for the 2026-27 season starting in a few weeks time.Earlier in the summer, Nico Schlotterbeck had been Real Madrids leading target, but after he picked up an ankle injury while on duty with Germany at the 2026 World Cup, club officials have pivoted to Alessandro Bastoni. Mourinho is also a big fan of the Inter Milan and Italy star, who could soon be set to make the move to the Bernabeu.As per MD, Inter have agreed a deal to sign former Manchester City defender John Stones, and the expectation is this will open the door for Bastoni to move to Real Madrid later this summer, should an approach be made.Real Madrid need someone to leave before going for BastoniReal Madrid want to go for Bastoni, although they are clear that any new defender cannot be signed until someone leaves. Mourinho has already informed Raul Asencio that he is not in his plans for the new season, so he would be the prime candidate to leave, which would open the door for Bastoni to move to the Bernabeu.Asencio has some interest in his services, but right now, there is no indication from the player himself that he wants to leave. Thus, Real Madrid may have a problem doing the necessary business to bring in Bastoni, which would be frustrating for Mourinho in his efforts to build the perfect squad ahead of the first season of his second spell as manager. For now, it simply remains to be seen how the situation plays out with both defenders.

In the best case scenario for Lachlan and Kaylen Bassett, one of them will be competing in the 2028 Olympics, the other will be supporting.That's because the Australian brothers compete in the same category in canoe slalom, and only one can be at the Olympic starting line.Kaylen, 29, and Lachlan, 26, have been competing in canoe slalom for over a decade. They started through school, a program where they went up to Sydney from their hometown Melbourne. Since then, it's been a passion for the entire family. While their father couldn't make the trip across the pacific for the ICF Canoe Slalom World Championships in Oklahoma City, their mom was out there as a judge.And the Bassett's case is not the only one. Not even in Australia.Paddle Australia also features Olympic medalist-sisters Jessica and Noemie Fox. More: OKC passes test of hosting ICF canoe slalom world championships. Next up? 2028 OlympicsEva and iga Hoevar of Slovenia follow their dad Simon's footsteps. In the French team, Marjorie, Anatole and Doriane share the passion for the sport.Brothers Jean Pierre and Yves Bourhis represent Senegal, while Isabella and Marcella Altman represent the USA."I think our sport is a real family sport," Kaylen said. "Our mom is here judging and you see so many parents coaching their kids and things like that. It's quite cool in that aspect."I think perhaps we're in the minority of siblings in the sport where we got into it ourselves, not through our parents or anything like that. It's pretty cool because you have someone, yes, while we're obviously competing against each other, you have someone that can really relate to you. You can share the experiences, you can cheer for each other, you mourn through each other at times."Jean-Pierre and Yves Bourhis also didn't have professional paddlers in their family, but a canoe club in their hometown in northwestern France pulled them into the sport.Jean-Pierre was 10 and Yves was 6 when they first started paddling.Their father knew the brothers loved water and were looking for some activity in the water. It could have been swimming or any other sport, but they started paddling in the local club. Eventually, they started competing and never looked back.Jean-Pierre and Yves represented their parents' home country of Senegal in the 2024 Paris Olympics. "My father is here (in Oklahoma City) for the race," Yves said. "He's following us to take videos because we don't have a coach. He always follows everything. He was at the Olympic Games with my sister and my brother. He's really getting involved. Even when we were kids, he was judging all the races."More: How athletes battled the heat at ICF Canoe Slalom World ChampionshipsThe two brothers don't live in the same city. Still, they help each other navigate the sport."It could be to give some advice, it would be to watch, sometimes if you have a rest day and the other doesn't, then you can have some feedback," Jean-Pierre said. "Most of the time we train on our own, but when we are in competition, it could happen that we train together."Because canoe slalom is a time trial sport, it's mostly each paddler against the water, rather than against each other. So while there is a natural rivalry, there is, above all, extreme support between these siblings."To have (Isabella) as a sister but also as a teammate competing here is a really special, full circle moment," Marcella Altman said. Marcella and her younger sister, Isabella, compete in kayak cross. Their cousin, tienne Daille, represented France at the 2012 Olympic Games. "I know it's a dream of both of ours," Marcella said. "We grew up paddling together, she was my first training partner."For the Bassett and the Bourhis brothers, as well as the Altman sisters, they just want to see their sibling performing to the best of their ability, and hopefully that can guarantee both siblings a spot in the podium."I think it's really cool that we just want the best run between us to win," Lachlan Bassett said. "I think everyone in our sport is really unique, where everyone's really close and friendly, and I think that's because we want, at the end of the day, for the best run to win. It does get a bit tense perhaps when it's like national team selections and things like that, where we're fighting for a spot between us, but other than that, why can't we both be on the podium like this?"Isa Almeida is a trending reporter for The Oklahoman.

Bruno Genesio backs Zinedine Zidane to keep France at the highest levelSpeaking to local media and Get French Football News during pre-season preparations, Marseille manager Bruno Genesio, has welcomed Zinedine Zidanes appointment as France manager, but insists that Didier Deschamps achievements during his 14 years in charge of Les Bleus must not be forgotten.I am like all French people, said the Marseille manager. First of all, I would like to underline the work of Didier Deschamps because we live in a world where people forget things very quickly.I am very happy with the arrival of Zinedine Zidane, but I would like to emphasise what Deschamps has done for 14 years. It is exceptional. I feel that sometimes we have lacked some respect concerning that.Deschamps departure brought an end to one of the most successful managerial tenures in the history of the France national team. However, attention quickly turned towards his potential successor, with Zidane long considered the natural candidate to take charge.As soon as Didier announced his departure, we wanted to have the name of who would replace him, Genesio continued. We will have someone with legitimacy from his career as a player, but not only that, because what he achieved during his time at Real Madrid, winning the Champions Leagues, was exceptional.I think we trust him, his work and his method, which will hopefully keep French football at the highest level for years to come.Zidanes appointment marks his return to management after his second spell with Real Madrid came to an end in 2021. The Marseille-born coach established himself among Europes leading managers during his time in the Spanish capital, most notably guiding the club to three consecutive Champions League titles.GFFN | George Boxall Reporting from La Commanderie, Marseille.
