Tottenham Hotspur chief Fabio Paratici has been linked with a move for Juventus attacker Paulo Dybala.

The Lowdown: Romano drops big Dybala news

According to fresh news reported by reliable journalist Fabrizio Romano, Juventus and Dybala have failed to come to an agreement over a new contract.

Whilst there was a verbal agreement in place last October, the Serie A side have gone back on their word and have changed their proposal.

The Argentina international’s current deal expires in the summer, and it now appears that the 28-year-old will not be renewing with the Turin club as Romano told Sky Italy ‘he’s set to leave as free agent’ after a meeting on Monday morning.

The Latest: Tottenham links

According to Gazzetta dello Sport (via Sport Witness), Spurs join Inter Milan and Atletico Madrid in the race to sign the forward.

It is reported that the links are due to Paratici’s ability to use his connections with Juventus, and a proposal from the north London club is possible.

However, it has been reported that “it takes time to frame the technical aims of a club in full swing to qualify for the next Champions League”, essentially saying that Spurs’ chances of winning the race could hinge on finishing in the top four.

The Verdict: Unlikely

Given the statement about Champions League, a move for Dybala would be dependent on the end to Tottenham’s season, with a place in a European competition no doubt a necessary requirement for an international superstar in the prime of his career.

A whole heap of legendary figures, including the likes of Michael Laudrup and Alessandro Del Piero, have heaped praise on Dybala, labelling him a “special” talent, and he certainly deserves to be playing at the highest level. Ballon d’Or winner Michel Platini has even compared the Argentine with one of the greatest to play the game in Diego Maradona.

Therefore, it is easy to see why Paratici is interested in the £222,000-a-week Juventus man, but whether he can actually convince his former club-mate to make the move is a different story.

Adam Gilchrist is good enough to return to peak wicketkeeping form but he is running out of time to do so, according to his predecessor Ian Healy. Gilchrist finished the first day in Adelaide one dismissal short of Mark Boucher’s world record of 413, but he found himself under fire after dropping a sitter to give VVS Laxman a reprieve.It continued a disappointing series for Gilchrist, who was especially sloppy in Sydney. There he spilled a simple chance down leg side to give Rahul Dravid a life, grassed an opportunity low to his right that would have denied Laxman his century, and could not hold on when running backwards to try and snare a lob by Harbhajan Singh. In Melbourne he had been sharper and passed Healy’s Australian record of 395 dismissals.Healy said the heavy workload on Gilchrist, 36, who opens in ODIs and is the team’s vice-captain, entitled him to some leeway but he could not use age as an excuse. “He’s set the benchmark, we all know what his standards are,” Healy told the at lunch on the second day. “We shouldn’t be adjusting our standards to cope with a player that might be ageing.”He’s got to get back to his standards and he knows that. He’s good enough to maintain and get back to those standards, no question – he can do it tomorrow maybe, he’s done all right today – but he’s got to do it quickly.”Healy knows what can happen if a veteran does not retire of his own accord – he was 35 when the selectors told him in 1999 they were replacing him with Gilchrist in the Test team. He said with quality glovemen like Brad Haddin in the state ranks the pressure would continue to mount on Gilchrist unless he answered with a boost in form.”The frustrating thing for him is that it’s a long way back, because you’re only judged on your mistakes,” Healy said. “He could have a perfect game and catch everything that comes his way, and everyone says ‘you’re expected to do that’. He’s got to somehow take some specky catches so that people notice him in a positive sense – so it’s a hard thing to do – and not put another one down.”Gilchrist’s former captain Steve Waugh said it was fortunate the drop of Laxman on Thursday only cost Australia 18 runs. “For a world-class keeper Gilly’s concentration and consequently his sharpness of footwork hasn’t been up to his usual exceptional standard and this one could have really hurt Australia,” Waugh wrote in the .Gilchrist’s batting output has also slowed after 96 consecutive Tests, although he remains a potential danger man at No. 7. Before the Adelaide Test Gilchrist said he was not considering retirement and suggested he might still be in the side at the end of the next Australian summer.

Following his match-winning knock of 87 against England at St Lucia, Scott Styris, the New Zealand allrounder, has said that the pressure to retain his place in the squad motivated him to raise his performance and guide his side home.Styris, who came in as a replacement for the injured Peter Fulton, bailed New Zealand of deep trouble with an unbeaten stand of 138 with Jacob Oram, who made 63. He also chipped in with two wickets, including that of the in-form Paul Collingwood, which helped restrict England to 209. His allround performance earned him the Man of the Match award.”I knew the heat was on me to go out there and deliver put on a performance worthy of keeping my position in the side,” Styris was quoted in AFP. “I’m pleased that that was able to happen.”Styris said that he felt glad to get his groove back, especially since his return to international cricket after being sidelined with a back injury. He made a comeback midway through the CB Series in Australia which preceded the World Cup.”I hadn’t played very well since I came back from my back injury so it was great to contribute today,” he said. “I set myself to have a good World Cup and I wanted to do well here and it’s been a good start.”Reflecting on the partnership with Oram, Styris said that the pair were intent on preserving wickets, given that the target was always well within reach. England struck early, removing the top three with just 19 on board before Styris and Craig McMillan led the recovery with a stand of 53.”We thought we could only lose the game if we got bowled out, so we really just had to go out and play and just take it as deep as we could,” he added. “We have a naturally aggressive side and runs still came, probably for the last 30 overs, we didn’t really need to take a risk.”Stephen Fleming, the New Zealand captain, said that it was a relief to get the two points from the win. “It was a tense day,” said Fleming. “The first game could have a massive bearing on the next stage and to win it was a great relief.”Yet he was not willing to get carried away by the fact that New Zealand would be going into the Super 8’s with two points from their win against England. “We have to do the right work in these next two games,” Fleming said. “But the four teams carrying a win could easily lose the first game [in the Super 8’s] and then you are back to scratch.”Fleming also praised his fast bowler Shane Bond who dismissed the dangerour batsmen – Kevin Pietersen (60) and Andrew Flintoff (0). “That really cut down a 250 par score to 210,” he said. “Flintoff and Pietersen, coming to the end of an innings, can be incredibly dangerous.”

Wasim Bari hopes the new players get used to the dressing-room atmosphere © Getty Images

Inzamam-ul-Haq, the Pakistan captain, and Wasim Bari, the chief selector, have defended the selection of 17 players for the three-match ODI series in Sri Lanka starting March 17.The selection of so many players for the ODIs led to a protest from Saleem Altaf, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) Director of Cricket Operations, who wrote a note of dissent on the squad. “We’ve picked the new players keeping in mind the next World Cup in 2007,” Bari said. ” We need to give the new players who have some potential, some exposure to see whether they can develop into steady performers for Pakistan.”Inzamam said the process of preparing for the World Cup had started with the Sri Lanka tour and that’s why some young players had been included. “We just want to have a look at them closely to check out their potential and temperament,” he added. “You can only do that on a foreign tour and it’ll be good for the youngsters to travel with the team and get used to the dressing-room atmosphere and team discipline.”The selectors have picked Tahir Khan and Abdul Rehman, two uncapped spinners, but have said changes could be made for the two Tests, which follow the one-day series. He said, “In Sri Lanka the pitches offer encouragement to the spinners and it’s not going to be an easy tour for us. Sri Lanka are a tough team to beat at home.”He added that Muttiah Muralitharan, who passed 600 Test wickets on Friday in the second Test against Bangladesh at Bogra, definitely posed a threat to the Pakistan batsmen. “There is no doubt he is a world-class performer and we’ll have to play him very carefully and properly. We’ve practiced for his type of bowling but he remains a threat and must be watched closely.”He was however confident his players could handle the pressures of the tour and noted they had played Murali before. “The only thing is against a bowler of his caliber, you can’t afford to relax at all.” The last time Pakistan played in Sri Lanka was in the 2004 Asia Cup, where they suffered a big defeat at the hands of Sri Lanka, a result that eventually cost them a berth in the final.Inzamam said his players now had to learn from their mistakes of the one-day series loss to India and start afresh. He welcomed the appointment of Zaheer Abbas, as manager, and Waqar Younis, as bowling coach, and felt the youngsters should learn a lot from them on tour.Shaharyar Khan, the PCB chairman, admitted the board had some reservations over sending 17 players for the three one-dayers to Sri Lanka. “I’ve spoken to the selectors and captain and I can understand their point of view for picking some extra players,” he said. “The idea is to give them exposure and test them out in foreign conditions. It’s also a reward for their consistent performances in domestic cricket.”

Inzamam-ul-Haq will look to avenge home defeat last year to India© Getty Images

Inzamam-ul-Haq, the Pakistan captain, has signalled to India that Pakistan will seek to avenge last year’s defeat at home. Beginning today, Pakistan embark on their first tour to India in six years, with a practice game against the Board Presidents XI on March 3.”India will be under pressure at home. We lost the home series last year, now it could be India’s turn to lose a home series,” Inzamam was quoted by . “The Australian tour has been a big learning experience for all of us and I think we are in a position to reap the benefits in India. We definitely want to make amends for last year’s defeats.”India recorded their first series victory in Pakistan last year when they won 2-1 in the Tests and 3-2 in the one-dayers. The composition of the Pakistan team has changed since then, prompting a precautionary note from Virender Sehwag, who said that the anonymity of some Pakistani players could help Pakistan. Bob Woolmer was appointed coach in place of Javed Miandad. “Woolmer has helped change the attitude of the boys which is more positive and professional,” Inzamam continued, “and I think they can take the pressure of playing in India.”Haq said that the absence of Shoaib Akhtar, who opted out of the Test series with a hamstring injury, would be felt though he expected his spinners – Arshad Khan and Danish Kaneria to do the bulk of the bowling. “Our strength is playing as a unit. These two spinners [Arshad and Kaneria] have a big role to play in India. They are the ones on whom we will be depending a lot in the Tests as we are expecting slow turning tracks and we have been practising for such conditions.”Inzamam, who will be making his 100th Test appearance in the Third Test at Bangalore, will have a lot to prove on this tour. Imran Khan, the former Pakistan captain, had called for Inzamam’s axing after Pakistan’s below-par performance in Australia. In the wake of severe criticism, Inzamam was uncertain about leading the side any further. “It’s a huge challenge for the team as well as me. We can beat India in India provided we remain mentally strong and play as a team, because team spirit will be a deciding factor.”

Rahul Dravid: played a divine innings © Getty Images

Asked to rate his first-innings knock a couple of days ago, Rahul Dravid had responded with the realism that is a feature of his persona. “It is satisfying to score a hundred in Australia,” he had said, “but the true value of the innings will only be judged by what result it achieves for the team.” After ensuring the unbelievable for his team, he was willing to term his performance, a staggering 305 runs from 835 minutes of occupying the crease, as the greatest of his life. His captain was more effusive. “Rahul batted like god,” said Sourav Ganguly.God indeed. Because he offered India deliverance. From 85 for 4, he forged a partnership with his old ally, VVS Laxman, that first frustrated Australia and then drove them to desperation. And then, as they sought frantically for a breach in the second innings, Dravid stood before then like an immovable object, offering a straight bat to anything remotely threatening and latching on to every scoring opportunity. Australia blew their chance when Adam Gilchrist dropped him early because after he had got over his early tentativeness, he didn’t offer them a sniff. “It was a remarkable achievement,” said Steve Waugh, paying Dravid repeated compliments after the match, “to come back after a double-hundred and to be able to concentrate so hard, it is an outstanding performance.”Dravid said there were times today when his concentration flagged. “But it has always been a strong side of my game, so it wasn’t difficult to get it back. The motivation wasn’t hard to find. There was history for the making, there were many team-mates, our coaching staff, who have worked so hard over the last two or three years, I knew I had to do it for them.”He said the gameplan had been simple. “I knew that if we batted out the overs, we were going to win. It was my job to stay there and let the others bat around me. I had a few partnerships, a brief one with Sehwag, a good one with Sachin and another good one with Laxman. To be able to stay there till the job was done is a quite a special feeling.”Inevitably, comparisons were sought with Eden Gardens. “I have not had a chance to sit back and think about this. May be things will sink in better a few days later. But Eden Gardens was a very emotional affair, very special. But in terms of what it could mean to us as a team, and what this could lead to, this win is significant.”Ganguly offered the same sentiments. “We have been winning Tests abroad in the last couple of years. But to win in Australia, to go one ahead is special. I have been here as vice-captain in 1999. I remember the atmosphere in the dressing room then, and I can feel the difference now.”When asked if his team was not intimidated by Australia, Ganguly said while many members of his team may look soft from outside, there was a lot of steel within. “Don’t go by how they look,” he said, “we have plenty of tough guys. Rahul, Laxman, Kumble, Zaheer, Ajit, they are all very strong in their head. I am proud of them.”We know Australia will come hard at us in the next two Tests. But we will be ready for them. We know, and they know, that we can beat them. I have always said that we are the second-best team in the world. And now if we beat them, and with some of their top players going out, well …”The job isn’t done yet. “Perhaps we will party tonight,” Dravid said. “We have a few days of break coming up. Then it’s back to work.”Sambit Bal, the editor of Wisden Asia Cricket magazine and Wisden Cricinfo in India, will be following the Indian team throughout this Test series.

A forgotten man of West Indies cricket is sitting on the sidelines wondering why he’s not been part of the selectors’ plans.Franklyn Rose, however, says bluntly he’s not prepared to wait forever to gain the recognition he deserves.The 30-year-old Jamaican fast bowler burst onto the international scene with a six-wicket haul on Test debut against India five years ago. But for a variety of reasons, he has had a chequered career and has not represented the West Indies since the 2000 summer’s tour of England.I can’t see the reason why I’m out of the West Indies team, especially with the bowlers they are using at the moment no disrespect to them, Rose said. The biggest problem with our bowling is the lack of experience.We don’t have any tear-away fast bowlers. The pitches are flat and the guys need some more aggression and encouragement from teammates.Rose has returned to Jamaica prematurely following knee surgery in South Africa that cut short his professional contract with Gauteng, but he hopes to be fit enough to return to the game for the last two matches on the current Busta Cup.When his season came to an end, he was his team’s leading wicket-taker with 17 scalps (ave. 22.94) in five matches in the Super Sport first-class championship.He would have closely followed the fortunes of the West Indies team in recent series against Sri Lanka and the ongoing one against Pakistan.In both cases, West Indies bowlers struggled badly and having watched a lot of it on television, Rose described it as a `painful’ experience.I am very hurt, especially when I’m walking on the street and people say `why are you here? You should be on the West Indies team,’ he said.At the end of the day, the selectors call the game. It is very disappointing seeing the West Indies team on the television and know that I should be there.I know that I’m better than a few of the bowlers. I’m going to do my best and try and get as fit as quickly as possible and hopefully I can be back in the West Indies team and stay as long as possible.Rose, who has taken 53 wickets (ave. 30.88) in 19 Tests, has been in and out of the West Indies for a combination of reasons, including indifferent performances and problems over attitude.His options are not limited and he makes it clear that his overseas commitments as a professional may be his priority.I’m not going to sit and wait on West Indies cricket, he said.I’m going to continue playing my cricket in England and South Africa, play a few games for Jamaica, and hopefully to be back in the West Indies as well, but I’m not going to sit and wait on West Indies cricket.His situation, however, may be complicated in light of the West Indies Cricket Board’s eligibility rule which stipulates that players must make themselves available for regional competitions in order to be considered for international duty.Rose missed last October’s Red Stripe Bowl while he was in South Africa and will only play in this year’s Busta Series because of the injury that ended his season on the other side of the world.I can’t understand that rule, Rose said.He made reference to a previous scenario in which Barbadian Ottis Gibson, who was also playing professional in South Africa during the West Indies’ 1998-99 tour, was drafted into the Test team following a spate of injuries.Rose leaves for England in April to fulfil a league contract knowing that time maybe running out.I love my cricket. I’m still going to be playing my cricket, even if I’m not playing for West Indies or Jamaica, he said. Your main aim is to always play for your country and I’m looking forward to playing for Jamaica and West Indies again.

A slogged six that cleared the head of Warren Wisneski at mid-on from man ofthe match Tama Canning gave Auckland victory with two balls to spare in adramatic second round Shell Cup encounter.Canning’s 25 not out from 15 balls proved decisive after a superbhalf-century from Lou Vincent had put Auckland in a winning position.In a match that was in the balance until the final ball Canning’s cavalierinnings, together with his career best four-wicket haul in the Canterburyinnings, proved to be the difference between the two sides.Auckland won the toss and asked Canterbury to bat, but in doing so the Acesgifted Canterbury the best batting conditions of the match on a pitch thatslowed in pace as the match wore on.At 84/0 after 15 overs Canterbury would have been looking for one of itsopeners, Brad Doody or Mark Hastings, to bat through and guide the defendingchampions to a score in excess of 280.But as the pitch appeared to slow up the Aces, bowling depth came to thefore, with Canning, Andre Adams, Mark Haslam and Chris Drum combining todeny Canterbury a boundary between the 18th and 37th overs. Chris Harrisfinally broke the drought with a pull shot for six of Andre Adams.Umpire Brent Bowden’s reluctance to give decisions again came to the forewith the dismissal of Harris. A Chris Drum delivery appeared to take asubstantial deflection as Harris played away from his body and a nick wasclearly audible from the grandstand. The Auckland players gathered mid-pitchto congratulate Drum but to their amazement Bowden declined to send Harrispacking. Both Harris and the fielders stood their ground, prompting Bowdento confer with South African umpire Brian Jerling at square leg. Jerlingimmediately indicated he thought it was a dismissal and Bowden finally gaveHarris a nod.Debate about Bowden tends to centre on whether his clownish antics are goodfor the image of the game, but scrutiny of his umpiring would reveal a manhesitant to make a decision on even the most obvious of dismissals.Canning’s first spell of seven overs, 2/19 had been crucial in Aucklandchoking back the Canterbury run-rate and he struck again with the first ballof his second spell, having Gary Stead caught by cover sweeper RichardMorgan for 21, in the 41st over.At lunch Canterbury coach Gary MacDonald said the failure of either Harrisor Stead to bat on after getting starts, had resulted in score 20-30 runsless than he would have liked. However, he believed his side’s score of 228was defendable.Auckland began its chase in positive fashion, debutant Tim McIntosh, freshfrom his maiden first-class century, combined with a more circumspect AaronBarnes for a century opening stand. Both batsmen were dismissed soon aftermaking their half-centuries, McIntosh unfortunately run out when he lookedto have another hundred at his mercy.Auckland continued to lose wickets at regular intervals and the run-rateclimbed above seven. Carl Anderson bowled a tight spell, as did Shane Bond,but Harris bowled too many bad balls to be able to maintain the pressurefrom his end.Lou Vincent steadied the Auckland innings with an intelligent run a ballhalf-century. But when Bond bowled Vincent with the last ball of thepenultimate over Auckland still required six for victory.Three good balls from Geoff Allot conceded only two runs, leaving the matchin the balance. However the final act of the game was left to its starperformer, Tama Canning, who just got under an Allot attempted Yorker enoughto clear the desperately leaping Wisneski.

Everton are eyeing up a move for Nottingham Forest defender Joe Worrall ahead of the summer.

What’s the news?

According to reports, West Ham along with Brentford and Everton are all interested in the Forest centre-back, who is rated by Transfermarkt at just £3.6m. However, the Championship club are said to value him at between £12m-£15m.

The Premier League trio may look to try and negotiate that price down even lower though, particularly if he fails to help his club reach the top flight this season.

He would also likely be a cheaper alternative to Liverpool defender Joe Gomez, who has emerged as a surprise Toffees transfer target.

Bye-bye Keane

Everton defender Michael Keane has struggled badly at times this season, with some very inconsistent form as the team have slipped into a relegation battle.

His performances have led to fans and critics calling for manager Frank Lampard to drop him, with young and hungry centre-back Jarrad Branthwaite patiently waiting for more opportunities to shine.

Even critics have slammed the former England international this term, with Jim Beglin calling him “sloppy” and Journalist Sean Lunt suggesting that he’s “regressed awfully.”

Therefore, if the club survives in the Premier League this season, it would be quite likely that they target a new defender to replace Keane, and due to their financial issues, Forest star Worrall could prove to be a bargain option.

Worrall earned praise from Steven Gerrard for his leadership qualities during their time together at Rangers, with the now Aston Villa manager saying: “He will be a captain of whatever team he plays for.”

If there is one thing Everton need right now, it is leadership – and despite having the experience of Seamus Coleman in the backline anyway, given his poor form, it would be beneficial for him to have another experienced figure in defence alongside him to help organise and encourage.

This season, Worrall has averaged a 7.08 in the Championship, as well as a 7.03 in the FA Cup, helping Forest reach the quarter-final, where they will take on giants Liverpool.

The 25-year-old, who has been described as a “colossus” by supporters, has kept 11 clean sheets in the league, as well as an average of two interceptions, 1.8 tackles and 3.4 clearances per game – and accompanying his excellent form would be the kind of confidence the Everton defence are lacking.

A mixed week for Manchester United started with a fantastic Premier League victory in North London, only to be disappointed by an FA Cup defeat against the old enemy this afternoon. While Sir Alex Ferguson will be disappointed at the club’s exit, it must be said that it could perhaps prove a blessing in disguise for United and allow them to put all their emphasis in catching City at the top of the Premier League table.

Elsewhere this week Fergie has been talking about his class of 2011 and how he believes that it could create a legacy similar to the infamous cast of 1992. Sir Alex has highlighted the two Keanes (Michael and Will), Larnell Cole, Jesse Lingaard, Zeki Fryers, Paul Pogba and young Ryan Tunnicliffe as the future of United and who will all have big futures within the game.

This week at FFC we have seen a mixed bag of blogs that include why United should fight for Morrison; Pogba would be crazy to leave, while Dortmund ace dismisses United link.
