Hibernian have made a "real statement of intent" by signing striker Christian Doidge, says boss Paul Heckingbottom.

The son of late former Arsenal winger Jose Antonio Reyes has signed for Real Madrid at the age of 11.

Jose Reyes Lopez, who previously played for Spanish club Leganes, will join up with the academy of the club where his father played on loan in 2006-7.

The former Sevilla winger died in a car accident at the age of 35 last month.

Sky reporting bid accepted. £8.5m.

“Tottenham are closing in on the signing of Leeds winger Jack Clarke, Sky Sports News understands.

A bit disappointing. I thought the club valued him at £20m???

It's being reported that the final fee will be closer to 13m with add-ons. I think that's fair.

Lieke Martens' late penalty sent the Netherlands into the Women's World Cup last eight at the expense of Japan, who missed several chances in a 2-1 loss.

Chickens reared to supply major retailers are being kept in "horrifying conditions" on giant farms, an animal rights group has claimed.

Animal Equality UK said it uncovered "extreme suffering" at three Moy Park farms in Lincolnshire while carrying out a covert investigation.

I’ve been reading the comments on here by the likes of Shemilt, Ali et al. I’ve been listening to the comments of Agnew, Guha and that idiot Swann. All England had to do to win the trophy was turn up. Just like with the 6 nations, just like against Croatia in the WC. It is total arrogance. There is no respect whatsoever for the other teams and I find that most embarrassing.

Anderlecht are regarded as the most successful club in Belgian football having won the league 34 times, but they hit near rock bottom last season.

They were also fined and docked points when crowd trouble forced a match at rivals Standard Liege to be abandoned. The club then fired coach Fred Rutten after only 13 games in charge.

Everton have signed Portugal midfielder Andre Gomes from Barcelona in a £22m deal, after he had a successful loan spell at Goodison Park last season.

It is the club's second signing of the summer after securing Huddersfield Town goalkeeper Jonas Lossl on a free transfer.

Good signing for them.

The apple originated in the so called ‘fruit forest’ of Eastern Europe

The fruit would have been smaller and more bitter than the apples we eat today. Travellers through the forest would have eaten the larger, sweeter apples, and started the process of selection, spreading pips across Europe and north into the Baltic regions.

Henry VII paid huge sums for individual apples, and Henry VIII had an orchard in Kent with many different varieties, and he imported French gardeners to look after them. Meanwhile, Catherine the Great loved Golden Pippin apples so much she had them brought over to her palace in Russia, each one wrapped in real silver paper.

The Netherlands hit Japan with a 90th-minute sucker-punch as Lieke Martens' penalty sent them through to the last eight of the Women's World Cup.
