You're locked in to Sports Desk, let's get into it.
England are in the World Cup semi-finals, and the debate is already raging over who starts. BBC's panel has weighed in with their preferred eleven, and across the country fans are tearing it apart — that conversation is only going to get louder as the last four takes shape.
Speaking of the last four, Chris Sutton has put his neck on the line with his semi-final predictions for the two thousand twenty six tournament. Sutton's never been shy about a bold call, and with the stakes this high, every word he puts out there is going to be scrutinized until the first whistle blows.
And while the World Cup dominates the headlines, club football is stirring. Newcastle United have held talks over a move for Zion Suzuki, the twenty three year old Serie A goalkeeper who's emerged as a genuine target as Eddie Howe's side look to solve their long-running question between the posts. James Trafford remains on their radar too, so this one is far from settled.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
