Bayern's stance on Olise after Liverpool interest piques again

On Monday, 2 March, it was reported by Sky Germany that Liverpool are keeping a close eye on Bayern Munich's Michael Olise.

This is not the first time the Merseyside giants have shown interest in the French winger since joining from Crystal Palace in July 2024.

Now, according to sources at Sport BILD, the Bavarians have set the record straight regarding their intentions with the 24-year-old.

Although both parties are not in talks over a new deal, Bayern fully intend to extend Olise's contract which currently runs until 2029.

As a result, the club’s stance is clear – the midfield star will not be sold under any circumstances, at any price.

The plan is to offer him an improved long-term deal at the appropriate time, while the player himself is happy at the club and willing to wait. 

The German champions are currently working on contract renewals for players requiring more immediate attention like Konrad Laimer.

Therefore, it's highly unlikely that Liverpool will sign the winger who has chipped in with 10 goals and 13 assist in 23 Bundesliga games.

Titans are the betting favorites to draft Jeremiyah Love

No running back has been a Top 5 pick in the NFL draft since Saquon Barkley in 2018. Notre Dame's Jeremiyah Love may change that this year.

The Titans, who own the fourth overall pick, are currently the betting favorites to take Love, with their odds of drafting him at +200. That would be a major investment in a running back who, the Titans would hope, can join with 2025 first overall pick Cam Ward as two building blocks of their offense for years to come.

The six-foot, 214-pound Love ran a 4.36-second 40-yard dash at the Scouting Combine, solidifying his status as the top running back in this year's draft. Love had 199 carries for 1,372 rushing yards and 18 touchdowns last year at Notre Dame and is one of the best running backs to come out of college football in years.

The Commanders, who own the seventh overall pick, have the next- best odds to draft Love, at +275. The Chiefs (No. 9 pick) are listed at +350 and the Saints (No. 8 pick) are at +370.

The winners will meet in the grand finale on March 8 at the colossal Narendra Modi Stadium, where the 2026 champions will be crowned.

England, led by Harry Brook, recovered from a scratchy group stage — including a last-ball thriller against Nepal — to dominate the Super 8s with wins over Sri Lanka, Pakistan and New Zealand. Will Jacks has been in sensational form, while Jofra Archer appears back to his fiery best.

India, captained by Suryakumar Yadav, found peak rhythm at the right time. Sanju Samson has strengthened the top order, Jasprit Bumrah has led the pace attack superbly, and Varun Chakravarthy’s 12 wickets underline India’s spin threat.
