Mikel Arteta wants Dennis Bergkamp to replace Freddie

Arsenal football club coach Mikel Arteta reportedly wants Dennis Bergkamp to join his coaching staff after Freddie Ljungberg’s departure.

As the news broke at the weekend that Freddie Ljungberg was leaving the club, my first thought was ‘Dennis Bergamp is free.’

So, imagine my delight to wake up on Monday morning to see that Arteta is indeed thinking of bringing Dennis back.

The last I head, Bergkamp had taken up a new role with Almere City in March 2019 after leaving Ajax under something of a cloud. Bergkamp was then said to be part of a consortium trying to buy a League One side.

Bergkamp left Ajax in 2017 and there was even a legal case ongoing between the parties. However, the Arsenal legend then joined the technical staff at Almere City FC, the side his son was playing for.
Not only did he sign for them, he did so for free.

Speaking to reporters, Bergkamp was trying to explain why he didn’t want to talk to reporters.

“I am a volunteer,” he said. “Should volunteers also do press? No right?

“I just don’t have much to say. Except that I really like it. I like to help.

“I didn’t feel the need [to work] for a moment after what had happened [at Ajax]. I wasn’t really looking either. This came my way, it felt good, that’s how it works.”

Bergkamp also added, somewhat surprisingly when talking about Ajax, “I don’t watch that much football by the way.”

Chechnya leader makes Mo Salah honorary citizen

Chechnya leader Ramzan Kadyrov has made Egypt’s talismanic striker Mohamed Salah an honorary citizen of the southern Russian region at a farewell banquet held for the eliminated World Cup side. Rights groups and Western governments allege that authorities in Chechnya repress their political opponents, discriminate against women and persecute sexual minorities, all allegations that Chechnya’s leaders deny. Chechnya has been hosting the Egyptian team’s World Cup training camp and Kremlin-backed Kadyrov has seized on opportunities to appear alongside Salah. Sarah’s goalscoring exploits for Liverpool and Egypt have made him an international superstar. “Mohamed Salah is an honorary citizen of the Chechen Republic. “Yes, that’s right! Tonight I signed a decree conferring this high award on the great footballer and member of the Egypt and Liverpool teams,” Kadyrov wrote on Telegram. Salah was presented with a badge and a copy of the decree at the dinner, Kadyrov said. The Egy...

Oil prices rise amidst uncertainty over Libyan crude exports

Oil prices rose, Tuesday on uncertainty over Libyan oil exports, although plans by producer cartel OPEC to raise output loom. Brent sweet crude futures, the international benchmark for oil prices, were at 74.95 dollars per barrel at 01.04 GMT, up 22 cents, or 0.3 per cent from their last close. The United States West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude futures were at 68.33 dollars a barrel, up 25 cents, or 0.4 per cent. Traders said prices were mostly driven higher by uncertainty around oil exports by Libya, a member of the Organisation of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC). Eastern Libyan commander, Khalifa Haftar’s forces have handed control of oil ports to a separate National Oil Corporation (NOC) based in the East of the country. The official state-owned oil company based in the capital Tripoli, also called NOC, will not be allowed to handle that oil anymore, he said. In comments later confirmed to the media, Ahmed Mismari, spokesman of Haftar’s Libya National Army...
