The Catalan left at the end of the 2011-12 season but his spell leading Barcelona will go down in history for the club’s stunning football and relentless collection of silverware.

Barcelona Manager Xavi Asks Young Striker Not To Renew Current Contract To Snap Him Up For Free Reports

The Germany international is in the final year of his deal at the Westfalenstadion and could leave as a free agent this summer. This has piqued Barca’s interest.

Bairstow Bludgeons Windies In T20 Opener

Nicholas Pooran was the talisman of a disappointing Windies innings, his 37-ball 58 the best contribution for the hosts as they reached 160-8 after the tourists won the toss at Gros Islet. Tom Curran took 4-36 for England, who made light work of their target thanks to Bairstow, who needed only 27 balls to bring up his fifty in an innings that saw him dropped twice. England were well ahead of the run rate by the time he departed for 68, Joe Denly and Sam Billings helping finish the job to put them ahead in a series that moves to Saint Kitts and Nevis for the final two matches....

Balancing The Checkbook

Bank mergers are hardly a new phenomenon: there have been hundreds over the past decade. The new crop is different only because the institutions involved are huge. But size, by itself, has nothing to do with how consumers fare. The critical issue is how much competition the postmerger giant will face. For example, the planned combination of Chemical Bank and Manufacturers Hanover Trust Co. will create the country’s third largest banking organization, but customers may not notice much effect on fees or interest rates: with a host of financial institutions fighting for business, New York is among the most competitive banking markets anywhere....

Baldur S Gate 3 Characters From Previous Games That Could Return

One thing known for sure is that certain characters from the original Baldur’s Gate saga will appear in Baldur’s Gate 3, and given the sheer number of optional companions present in BG, BG2, and BG2: ToB, that leaves a number of possibilities. Roughly a century will have passed between the events of the original saga and Baldur’s Gate 3 so that naturally rules out (most of) the human characters, but some of those other Dungeons & Dragons races are plenty long-lived enough to still be kicking–and available for a cameo....

Bale Mourinho Was A Big Reason Behind Tottenham Return

The Wales captain completed the move back to the north London side on a year-long loan on Saturday after a seven-year spell at Real Madrid. Mourinho said this week that he tried to sign the 31-year-old when he was in charge of the Spanish giants, who ended up bringing him to the Santiago Bernabeu after the Portuguese coach’s departure earlier that year.

Nottinghamshire’s Ball, 26, won the only contentious place ahead of fellow seamer Craig Overton in the England line-up after three warm-up games.

Quayshawn Shymel Simmons, 29, pleaded guilty in July to orchestrating a scheme whereby he would purchase guns from federally-licensed dealers in Virginia using a false address, and then transport the weapons to D.C. “Those who buy firearms in Virginia just to turn around and sell them illegally in Washington, D.C., as Simmons did here, are not simply committing paperwork violations,” Ashan M.

Ban Ki Moon The Lesson From Covid 19 Is That We Need More Not Less Global Cooperation Opinion

I need not dwell on the consequences of this colossal, collective failure of global leadership. The pandemic is still spreading, its death toll now in the hundreds of thousands. The global economy is at a standstill. Hundreds of millions of people are unemployed, and as hunger grows, so will civil strife. According to the UN, a quarter of a billion people may starve this year. What progress we have made on reducing poverty and malnutrition and our other social development goals could be wiped out within months....
