Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has reiterated his commitment to Borussia Dortmund as rumours of a move away from the club persist.
Gabon striker Aubameyang has been in sensational form for Dortmund this season and has scored 18 goals in 17 Bundesliga appearances.
Aubameyang s performances were recognised as he won the CAF Player of the Year award on Thursday, preventing Yaya Toure from winning for a record fifth time.
And his goals have also led to interest from elsewhere, with Premier League side Arsenal heavily linked with a move.
But Aubameyang used his acceptance speech at the CAF awards to once again stress his desire to stay at Signal Iduna Park, as he stated: I will stay at Dortmund.
Aubameyang is in his third season at Dortmund having joine…
Pep Guardiola is willing to wait for Raheem Sterling to sign a new deal at Manchester City – even though star midfielder Kevin De Bruyne agreed terms in two minutes last season.
Sterling is poised to return to action for City at home to Fulham in the Premier League on Saturday, having sat out England s games against Spain and Switzerland with a back injury.
The 23-year-old has started the season in fine form for the defending champions, with two goals in three outings to back up 23 across all competitions in 2017-18.
Like De Bruyne, Sterling was a key figure in a record-breaking campaign, but he is into the final two years of his contract at the Etihad Stadium.
Belgium international De Bruyne signed a bumper extension running until June 2023 back in Ju…
In case you missed it, England pulled off a stunning 1-0 victory against Spain on Saturday.
But the most impressive part of the win was that England featured many of their upcoming youngsters in the squad.
The likes of Danny Welbeck (Manchester United), Phil Jones (Manchester United), Kyle Walker (Tottenham Hotspur), Jack Rodwell (Everton) and Theo Walcott (Arsenal) were all featured by Fabio Capello.
That raises the question, should Fabio Capello take a risk and take youngsters to Euro 2012?

Despite matching Spain s all-time record for international caps on Saturday, longtime Spain and Real Madrid goalkeeper Iker Casillas felt the result did …
Hope Solo believes hosts France pose the biggest challenge to the United States Women s World Cup defence.
Solo helped the USA to glory in Canada four years ago and was named the leading goalkeeper in the tournament for the past two editions.
The 37-year-old will look on as a spectator this time around, following the end of her international career in 2016, and feels Les Bleues could come to delight the home crowd when the World Cup kicks off next month, despite them being placed fourth – behind the States, Germany and England – in FIFA s official rankings.
France, I think is the best team in the world right now, but they don t have the number one ranking, Solo told Omnisport, speaking courtesy of Street Soccer USA.
They are incredible, t…
Market: Argentina win to nil
Odds:
Hoping this will be the year that they reclaim the World Cup, Argentina, led by Lionel Messi will travel to the National Stadium Ramat Gan to face off against Isreal on Saturday.
For Elisha Levy s Isreal side, after enduring another difficult qualifying campaign, the hosts have once again missed out on the World Cup finals. Sadly for Isreal, their form of late has continued to disappoint, The Blue and Whites are coming off the back of a 2-1 loss to Romania at the National Stadium and Isreal have now lost six of their last eight. It will also be their form in the final third that will be a huge cause for concern for Levy s side, Isreal have now failed to find the net in four of their six defeats and have only won one home match since Se…
Robert Lewandowski s time at Bayern Munich has come to an end.
Barcelona have struck a deal in principle with the Bundesliga champions to sign the star forward, who expressed his desire to leave Munich at the end of last season.
Lewandowski scored 50 goals across all competitions in the 2021-22 campaign, continuing his remarkable form across his eight-year spell in Bavaria.
Before his move to Bayern in 2014, Lewandowski was brilliant for Borussia Dortmund, and he leaves Germany as one of the Bundesliga s greatest performers, having scored 344 goals and contributing 57 assists.
Here are the 33-year-old s best figures and records from his stint in Germany s top tier.
Bossing the Bundesliga

In what can only be described as a cursed primetime football game, the New England Patriots are visiting the Pittsburgh Steelers in a battle of backup quarterbacks. Despite the potential ugliness of this game, the NFL odds have the Steelers as six-point favorites.
The difference in this one is the playmakers the Steelers have with taking the field, something Bill Belichick’s team has been in search of all season. While he hasn’t been consistent, George Pickens has the talent to be the biggest game-changer in what will likely be a defensive stalemate.
You can see how I’m betting on the Steelers wide receiver as we dive into the TNF odds in my free NFL picks below.

Man Utd manager Erik ten Hag has defended Rasmus Hojlund amid criticism and sympathy from Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher.
Only seven Premier League sides have scored fewer goals than the Red Devils in the league this season with Erik ten Hag s side currently eighth in the table.

, Carragher said that Hojlund needs to do more himself despite feeling sympathy for the Denmark international over the lack of service from the rest of the Man Utd…
The Massachusetts Gaming Commission is mulling over a request from to void 178 bets taken on an NBA matchup last month after the sportsbook operator identified that incorrect same game parlay totals had been used for the game.
The 178 bets were placed by 137 customers on an Oct. 24 Los Angeles Lakers and Denver Nuggets matchup. DraftKings incorrectly posted first-quarter over/under totals as full game totals and customers took advantage to the tune of more than $575,000 in winnings.
A final decision on the request will be made during the commission s Nov. 30 meeting.
Is It An Obvious Error?
