December 2025

Pelicans rookie Derik Queen delivered his first NBA triple double with 33 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists in only his 25th game, carrying New Orleans back from a twenty point deficit before missing a late go ahead shot in a tight 135-132 defeat to the Spurs. Drafted thirteenth after New Orleans traded consecutive first rounders to Atlanta, Queen bullied defenders inside, finished tough paint looks and created for team mates, earning praise from Alvarado and interim coach Borrego as a rare bright spot amid the Pelicans’ 3-23 start and heavy external criticism of the trade.

Salah offered early Egypt link-up as January Liverpool exit deemed unlikely

Mohamed Salah
December 2025

Mohamed Salah has been given the option to join Egypt’s camp earlier than scheduled amid outrage over his “thrown under the bus” comments about Liverpool, yet despite the fallout and speculation over Saudi or Turkish bids, a transfer in the January window is currently viewed as very unlikely. Following a third straight benching and unused substitute role at Leeds, Salah publicly complained of broken promises and a lost relationship with Slot, but with AFCON duty imminent and his contract still fresh, the immediate focus is shifting toward international commitments rather than forcing a mid season move.

Chelsea expect Liam Delap to return in three to four weeks after scans confirmed no fracture in the shoulder he damaged against Bournemouth, limiting his latest setback after a two month hamstring layoff and offering hope he can rejoin the attack early in the New Year.
