Ebullient manager takes his side to Salzburg to cross swords with the European champions in the Super CupOne thing was almost instantly detectable as Unai Emery walked into a stuffy room inside the Red Bull Arena on the eve of Wednesday’s Super Cup against Paris Saint-Germain. After a summer of change, Aston Villa’s manager appeared uber-relaxed, confident his team will absorb a series of headline departures. He cracked a joke about his English improving and poked fun at John McGinn, impersonating his captain while next to him on the auditorium’s top table.Emery was in a jovial mood, then. But he was also switched on, alert to the frequency, the tone of the wave of questions at the beginning of his fourth full season in the job. “You ask about the changes of coaches and players, but McGinn is intelligent and his answer was fantastic,” Emery said with a smile. “When he arrived here [in 2018] they were in the Championship and every year since there have been changes and still the club has moved forward.

Inter Miami await the return of Germán Berterame, who — despite being cleared by Guillermo Hoyos as recovered — still needs the green light from the federation. Inter Miami are edging closer to getting German Berterame back on the field, with head coach Guillermo Hoyos offering an encouraging update on the striker’s recovery from the head injury he suffered last month. Speaking in a press conference ahead of the Leagues Cup clash against Club Leon, Hoyos referred to the forward’s situation. “Berterame is recovered, we’re waiting on the timelines the federation determines, but we have a few more days,” the coach explained. Berterame’s injury occurred on July 25 during Inter Miami’s MLS win over CF Montreal, when he collided with defender Efrain Morales while contesting a cross. The Mexican international was knocked unconscious and had to be stretchered off before being taken to a hospital. He missed roughly two weeks of action before returning to training with the club on August 7. According to Hoyos, Berterame has now been cleared physically, but his official return to play still hinges on the federation’s own concussion protocol timeline rather than the club’s internal medical staff. Medics carry German Berterame #19 of Inter Miami CF into an ambulance. (Getty Images) Unlike Lionel Messi‘s uncertain return date, which remains open-ended, Berterame’s case appears to be nearing its final stretch, with Hoyos suggesting the forward could be available again within days rather than weeks. MLS’s concussion protocol: How the league handles head injuries MLS activates a strict set of procedures whenever a player takes a blow to the head during a match. The league runs a Medical Spotter Program, in which trained medical staff monitor live video feeds throughout every game specifically looking for signs of a possible head injury. If a Spotter identifies what the league classifies as a “Mandatory Observable Sign,” they immediately flag the incident to the Venue Medical Director, who is then required to review the footage before conducting an on-field assessment. Crucially, a player cannot return to the match until the Venue Medical Director has both reviewed the available video and cleared them through that on-field evaluation. From there, MLS relies on the HEADCHECK platform — described as the digital backbone of the league’s concussion policy — to track symptom checklists and monitor the player’s return-to-sport progress in the days and weeks that follow, which is the process Berterame has been working through since his collision with Montreal.

This time around, chairman Mark Ashton says Ipswich have to be "a bit braver" in their approach to the Premier League, and the type of players the club are pursuing reflects that increased ambition.

The Tractor Boys have been linked with a move for Paraguayan forward Julio Enciso, who played under O'Neil at Strasbourg last season and had an injury-blighted loan spell at Portman Road during the second half of 2024-25.
