And it turns out there is not much backstory behind the pairing. "It was very unexpected, to be honest," laughed Sinner when he was asked about it ahead of Wimbledon.

"Look, I just met her yesterday for the first time. We never talked. We never texted to each other. It's actually a funny story.

"The tournament, they wanted us to kind of play together because certain teams were already set up. The choice was not big, but I'm very happy to play with Emma."

Asked whether he plans to get to know Navarro before they play at the US Open, Sinner said: "Yeah, I hope before the first time we step on court."

LAFC have mutually parted ways with striker Olivier Giroud, the club announced Friday.

Giroud will reportedly soon sign with Ligue 1 side LOSC Lille, and is slated to play one last LAFC match on Sunday vs. Vancouver Whitecaps FC (9:30 pm ET | MLS Season Pass).

"Olivier has been an exemplary professional during his time at LAFC," said co-president & general manager John Thorrington.

"He brought humility and a winning mentality that helped elevate everyone around him. Olivier has been a tremendous ambassador for the club on and off the field. We are grateful for his contributions and wish him, his wife Jennifer, and his family all the very best in this next chapter."

Milan have officially released Joao Felix and Riccardo Sottil, returning the players from their loans to Chelsea and Fiorentina.

The Rossoneri brought both of the forwards in during the January transfer window on six-month loans.

Those contracts will expire on June 30 and there were no real attempts to negotiate any longer stays, let alone permanent transfers.

Juan Bernabé had been the club’s official falconer for over a decade, ensuring the eagle Olympia mascot was able to fly around the Stadio Olimpico before kick-off in every home match, but also living with the bird at their Formello training ground.

He was fired in January after going on a radio show to discuss how a penile implant had improved his sex life, and posting pictures of the surgery on social media.

However, Bernabé refused to leave his rooms at Formello, insisting he had a medical note, sparking a legal battle that dragged on for six months.

It finally ended today, as Lazio released a statement confirming he had been evicted from the premises many months after his contract was terminated for “behaviour considered incompatible with the ethical values of the Club.”

But despite personal terms being agreed upon, Marca have reported that Williams has asked Barcelona to ensure that he will be registered with La Liga for the start of the 2025-26 season.

Barcelona must register Williams alongside already-signed Joan Garcia, who is expected to be the club’s starting goalkeeper next season. And while Joan Laporta has assured that there will no problems in this regard, La Liga have stated that the Catalans have not yet returned to the 1:1 rule, which would affect their chances of getting a deal done.

Barcelona need to sell players in order to guarantee that Williams can be registered, with the likes of Marc-Andre Ter Stegen, Andreas Christensen, Pablo Torre and Ansu Fati among those to have been identified as leading candidates to depart. But it is not certain that the club will be able to do the business required, and after the debacle with Dani Olmo and Pau Victor, it is understandable that Williams is seeking assurances.

"My wish is to play for several more years. I would love to be healthy physically and also mentally motivated to keep on playing at the highest level. That’s the goal, but you never know at this stage.

"And yes, I would probably agree that Wimbledon could be the best chance because of the results I had, because of how I feel, how I play in Wimbledon, just getting that extra push mentally and motivation to, yeah, perform the best tennis at the highest level."

"It’s great to be back," he said. "I love Wimbledon. I’ve always loved it. Always dreamed of playing the Centre Court and winning it.

"I think in the last six editions, I had six finals. Been for one reason or several reasons playing very well in Wimbledon, maybe the most consistently successful Grand Slam for me in the last 10 years.
