newcastle united, Tottenham Hotspur And Aston Villa Real could compete for Betis’ Abed Ezalzouli this summer.

On 18 May, Game Witness Covered claims from Spain Regarding interest from the Magpies and Aston Villa. Tottenham are also in the transfer race.

Eddie Howe’s side are in the process of completing the sale of Anthony Gordon to Barcelona for more than €70m.

The left winger arrived in Spain on Thursday and Barcelona should make his signing official soon, forcing the Tyneside club to sign his replacement.

Newcastle United, Tottenham and Aston Villa are keen

Friday edition of game Report suggests the Magpies could target Abed Ezalzouli to replace Anthony Gordon.

The Morocco international is attracting strong interest from the Premier League, with Tottenham Hotspur and Aston Villa also his favourites. Both these clubs have asked about him.

Real Betis must balance their books before June 30 and can do so by selling the attacker or another player.

If the 24-year-old shines in the World Cup, his value may increase.

Tell the game immediately: ‘Now the moment of truth has come, and if Newcastle go all out to replace Gordon it will be difficult to say “no”.’

There has been no explanation as to why Abed cannot reject him, but that may not be the case as other clubs are also interested.

Meanwhile, Eddie Howe’s side have made fresh contacts in recent hours. They know that delaying the operation could force them to enter a bidding war later this summer.

Friday’s sports world Also report Newcastle United want to sign the Moroccan. Real Betis plan to replace him with another former Barcelona player, RCD Mallorca’s Jan Virgili.

Hansi Flick’s side retains 20% and 40% of the profits from the sale of Abe and Virgili respectively. Gordon’s move to Camp Nou could have a domino effect, which in turn could benefit the La Liga winners financially.

‘Will not find the door closed’ – Sunderland encouraged to pursue summer move

Sunderland Having previously tried to sign Andre-Frank Zambo Anguilla from Napoli, he has been given encouragement for another move.

Last summer, there were doubts over the Cameroon international’s future at Naples. This came as Napoli won their second Serie A title in three years, with the midfielder once again making a key contribution.

That’s when Sunderland attempted to sign the ex-Fulham player upon their return to the top-flight. sports witness Covered his approach, as Zambo Anguilla preferred to compete for silverware for Napoli rather than head to the Stadium of Light.

There were indications that his family were keen to return to England, but that did not change the 30-year-old’s mind.

Now, things are changing and Regis Le Bris’ team has been given a chance.

napoli now open for sale

Il Mattino – relayed by footballnapoli1926There are reports that several Napoli players could end up in England in the summer.

There is a possibility that Zambo Anguilla goes down that route. The newspaper has made it clear that if the Black Cats come forward to Cameroon, this time they will ‘not find the door closed’.

The Italian giants are aware that they may be forced to sell some key players this summer. Zambo Anguissa is now seen as a senior member of the team, but he could depart in 2027 with his current deal intact.

This makes 2026 the last opportunity for Napoli to make some significant earnings from player sales.

Zambo Anguissa’s family are also believed to be keen to return to England. This could swing things in Sunderland’s favour, as Napoli are currently prioritizing a sale over Premier League clubs.

Our View: The Black Cats must rise to the occasion

The former Fulham man is unlikely to spend much on a move in the summer due to his contract situation.

Last summer, Sunderland signed a Premier League-proven midfielder in Granit Xhaka. Like the Swiss star, Zambo Anguilla has also won league titles while away from the English top-flight. He is even younger than Xhaka was when he arrived at the Stadium of Light.

The only drawback to this move would be Zambo Anguilla’s recent fitness record. He has struggled physically this season and it has held him back throughout the campaign.

But for a low fee, he could be a gamble worth taking on for Sunderland.

Youth Habits Find the Way to Win

The Montreal Canadiens face the Tampa Bay Lightning in a do-or-die Game 7 on Sunday night.

Before puck drop, it was announced that Noah Dobson would return to the lineup and participate in his first game of the playoffs, giving the Habs a huge boost on the blue line. Defenseman Arbor Zekaj was made a healthy scratch to allow for Dobson’s presence in the lineup.

It wasn’t the prettiest game, but the Habs found a way to emerge with a 2-1 victory, and a 4-3 series win in the process.

Let’s look at the highlights!

Oh Captain, my Captain!

Canadiens captain Nick Suzuki picked the perfect moment to score his first goal of the series, hitting a point shot late in the third period.

Well, if we’re being honest, the right time would have been earlier, but you can’t look like a gift horse in an elimination game.

It should be noted that this was the first time either Suzuki, Cole Caufield, or Juraj Slafkowski scored a goal at 5v5 against the Lightning.

rookie effect

Even though the Canadiens opened the scoring, Tampa Bay clearly controlled the flow of the game, as evidenced by their 19–4 advantage in shots after two periods of play.

Yes, you read that correctly.

The Canadiens took a total of four shots in 40 minutes, resulting in undue pressure on the shoulders of rookie netminder Jacob Dobbs.

The first-year player performed with confidence, all things considered.

the other shoe drops

The Dobbs deserved full points for holding down the fort, but the Lightning ultimately crumbled, a situation that was fairly predictable considering they were the only team interested in taking shots in the second period.

In fact, it was the first time in Canadiens post-season history that they failed to register a single shot in that span, far from the ideal time to set that type of franchise record.

Despite everything being on the line, the game held on for the final 20 minutes of the series despite overtime.

It was an important test of whether the Canadiens were truly built differently – a team that thrived only after facing adversity – or a franchise that repeatedly failed to take series leads and failed to perform when it mattered most.

In a desperate attempt to generate any semblance of offense, head coach Martin Saint-Louis put his lines in a blender, placing Ivan Demidov on the top line with Suzuki and Slafkovsky.

This change significantly increased the Habs’ offensive zone pressure, but did not necessarily lead to an abundance of shots.

To give you an idea of ​​how few and far between shots on net were, Suzuki’s shot five minutes into the third period was actually Montreal’s first since it scored in the first period in over 25 minutes of play.

Do you believe in statistically impossible outcomes?

The Canadiens finally started to get some momentum, with speedy forward Alex Newhook making good use of his hand-eye co-ordination, getting a puck out of the air before fouling out Andrei Vasilevskiy.

It was a spectacular feat of skill from Newhook, a heartbreaking scenario for the Lightning, and another excellent game in the face of adversity from the Habs. Oh, and it was also enough to secure an underdog series win against Tampa Bay.


All Montreal Canadiens stats are 5v5, via Natural Stat Trick, unless otherwise noted.

Will the NY Knicks find an OG Anunoby replacement in the new ESPN NBA mock draft?

ESPN’s latest NBA mock draft opens the door for the New York Knicks to select a potential OG Anunoby replacement with their top pick at the June event.

Since arriving in a trade ahead of the 2023-24 trade deadline, Anunoby has been a valuable part of the Knicks roster. He’s a reliable three-point threat, an underrated scorer, a talented athlete, but more than anything, he’s a tenacious defender who can guard both forward spots.

However, if the Knicks disappoint in this year’s playoffs and fail to reach the Finals, the 28-year-old could be used in a blockbuster trade. Furthermore, he still has three years and $135 million left on his massive contract. This is a huge number for a player who has never earned All-Star honors in the NBA.

Maybe that’s why Jeremy Wu’s new ESPN NBA mock draft predicts the team will use their first-round pick in June on Arizona big man Koa Peat.

Can Koa Pete replace OG Anunoby?

Bob Donnan-Images

“Pete chose to declare for the draft and has the opportunity to solidify his role on the board with a strong predraft process,” Wu wrote. “Some teams see him as an excellent candidate to return to school and improve his stock, an option that is available to him.

“Scouts view his perimeter shooting as a key swing skill that will impact his career path, as he is not particularly effective at scoring outside 15 feet at this stage of his career. But his strength and quickness relative to his size, coupled with a solid offensive feel and ability to defend the perimeter, give him a chance to find a spot at the right position.”

The 6-foot-8 prospect isn’t quite the same three-point shooter as Anunoby, but he has similar athletic talent and the ability to be a problem for opposing forwards. One area where he is better than the nine-year vet is that he is a better ball handler and passer. The 19-year-old is a project, but he would come at a fairly cheap rate and wouldn’t need to be a top scorer or distributor, just a strong defender.

Seahawks find legitimate Kenneth Walker III replacement option

The Seattle Seahawks have a large vacancy at the starting running back spot. However, on Wednesday he met his potential replacement in Kenneth Walker III, who has one accomplishment on his resume that the reigning Super Bowl MVP does not: a trip to the Pro Bowl.

The 2025 NFL season was a magical year for the Seahawks. Sure, they were expected to be competitive, but few thought they would be good enough to reach the Super Bowl, let alone win it. However, that’s exactly what he did last month against the New England Patriots.

Yet, success also brings imitation as rivals seek to borrow something from Seattle’s winning method. When super MVP Kenneth Walker III received a three-year, $43 million deal from the Kansas City Chiefs in free agency, the Seahawks lost a notable portion of their winning streak.

While the running back wasn’t an elite player at his position, he has been a difference maker for Seattle since arriving as a second-round pick in 2022. Therefore, his exit leaves a notable hole in the backfield for the Seahawks.

Seattle Seahawks meet Najee Harris

jeanne kamin-onsia-imagen images

The assumption by many is that they will want to address this issue internally or on Day 2 or 3 of the NFL Draft. However, a new report suggests they are in talks with a very good replacement option ahead of free agency. “Los Angeles Chargers free-agent RB Najee Harris visited with the Seattle Seahawks today,” ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports.

Harris is a one-time Pro Bowler who has rushed for 1,000 or more yards in every season of his career except 2025. Unfortunately, his campaign ended early last year after suffering an Achilles tear in Week 3. It’s not surprising that injury is the main reason he remains in free agency even after April shut down.

If Harris can be close to the player he was for the first four years of his career, he brings in similar stats to Walker III, but should probably come in at a slightly more reasonable rate.

Devils pounce on Panthers, find scoring touch

Watch what happens when the New Jersey Devils score first?

Hosting the defending back-to-back champions, the Florida Panthers, New Jersey looked like themselves again in a 5–1 victory to start their seven-game homestand.

It was a slow start as the Panthers pressured Jacob Markstrom and maintained puck possession with five shots in the first three-plus minutes of the period.

However, the Devils tilted the ice back in their direction, opening the scoring on the stick of Arseniy Gritsyuk.

Connor Brown forced a turnover in the neutral zone as the Panthers attempted to transition to the Devils’ end of the ice.

Gritsyuk picked up the loose puck, led an awkward run the other way with Jack Hughes, but opted to shoot and beat Sergei Bobrovsky for a 1–0 lead at the 12:10 mark of the first period.

20 seconds after the Devils scored, Carter Verhaeghe set up Jack in the corner behind the Devils’ net. Panthers forwards got two minutes for boarding, while Brendan Dillon and Eetu Luostarinen got two minutes for roughing.

Jack surfaced after the boarding incident and remained safe in the game.

Anton Lundell equalized the score at one just as Dillon and Luostarinen came out of their respective penalty boxes.

A physical, playful game continued in the second period, however, as the Devils quickly separated themselves from the Panthers on the scoreboard.

Jack received a pass from Jasper Bratt in the Florida slot but sent the puck wide of the Panther net. Still, Dougie Hamilton was in the right place at the right time, as the rubber bounced off the end board and landed right in front of him for an easy tap-in, giving the Devils a 2-1 lead 1:35 into the middle frame.

About halfway through the second period, Cody Glass widened the gap by redirecting Lenny Haminaho’s shot from the right point, scoring his 14th of the season to give New Jersey a 3–1 lead.

The third period proved that the ice was tilted in New Jersey’s favor. Bobrowski made 10 saves in the final 20 minutes to keep Florida from a two-goal deficit.

However, this did not prevent the Devils from maintaining the majority of puck possession.

Paul Morrissey pulled Bobrovsky with about three and a half minutes remaining in the game. Dawson Mercer forced a turnover in the neutral zone and scored on an empty net to increase the Devils’ lead to 4–1.

Simon Nemec added a second empty-net goal to solidify a 5–1 victory.

Markstrom recently had another strong performance, making 20 saves on 21 shots and earning his 17th win of the season.

Jaylen Brown, Derrick White find new secret double-double weapon

What has made the Boston Celtics such a strong team to face this season, despite the major roster overhaul last offseason with the absence of Jayson Tatum and the departures of Jrue Holiday, Kristaps Porzingis and Al Horford, has been the team’s consistent next-man-up mentality.

Earlier in the season, it was Josh Minot who stood out as a multi-positional defensive pest for the Celtics. There was a time when Jordan Walsh was turning everyone’s heads. Hugo Gonzalez is a spark-plug who experienced one of the most memorable clutch moments of the season for Boston.

But now, a different unknown player is moving to the Celtics in the form of Baylor Sheuerman. Sheuerman is emerging as a key guy for Boston, especially with the way he helps the team control the glass. On Tuesday night, in a blowout 97–81 win over the Phoenix Suns on the road, Scheuerman recorded another double-double, an 11-point, 11-rebound effort.

The Celtics have been dominant on the glass over the past month and Sheyerman has been a big reason for that. In fact, he now has three career point-rebound double-doubles, and all three have come within the last three weeks, as reported by Celtics Stats on X (formerly Twitter).

It certainly seems like the Celtics are producing quality contributors on the factory line, which is how they’ve gotten so many contributions from unexpected sources.

celtics are rolling

The Celtics have won nine of their last 10 games, and they now have the third-best record in the NBA despite Tatum’s absence. The great play of Jaylen Brown as well as the consistency of Derrick White and Peyton Pritchard have played a huge role in this, but head coach Joe Mazzulla has managed to squeeze a lot out of a core that wasn’t very inspiring early in the season.

To make matters better for the Celtics, Tatum is close to returning, which should lift the team even further.

Apple Pay Casino Sites: Find Top Safe Apple Pay Casinos in UK (February 2026)

Why did I switch from PayPal to Apple Pay casino payments when both offer similar processing times and security protocols?

They’re both safe ways to make deposits and withdrawals, but in my experience, Apple Pay provides a better service for mobile users. 

🤔 What is Apple Pay?

Apple Pay is a safe way to make online gambling payments. Specifically, it’s a next-generation eWallet. I say that because it takes what first-generation online wallets such as PayPal started and streamlines the experience. 

I’ll talk more about how to use Apple Pay at the top UK online gambling sites later. For now, here’s a quick overview of what it does:

  • Apple Pay is exclusively for iOS users (sorry, Android readers, you’ll need to use Google Pay).
  • You set up Apple Pay by linking a debit/credit card or bank account to your Apple account. 
  • This turns your mobile phone into a portable payment device that can be used for in-person tap-to-pay transactions or online transactions. 

In essence, Apple Pay is a conduit for financial transactions. This means you can make payments from your bank account without entering any banking details. There are a variety of benefits to this, including efficiency and security, which is why the top UK online gambling sites now offer this payment method. 

🔎 A closer look at the top 3 Apple Pay casinos in the UK

More and more UK online gambling sites are starting to offer Apple Pay, but a few bright sparks got ahead of the curve. Of all the casinos that spotted Apple Pay’s benefits before it was trendy, the following three are my favourites, thanks to their games, promotions and unique features.

1. sport BET

sport BET is more than a sportsbook. Yes, it offers generous odds on the latest Premier League games and boxing matches, but don’t sleep on its slots. The developers quietly added a handful of exclusives to the already impressive gaming lobby at the end of 2024. 

I’d still like a few more casual casino games to be added, particularly in the form of crash games. However, if you’re someone who wants to get the most from Apple Pay, you’ll have plenty of mobile games to choose from.

Age of the Gods: Cash Collect is my favourite progressive jackpot slot, and 10p Roulette is both fun and affordable. If I’m forced to recommend one game for all-round entertainment, I have to go with Vinnie Jones Card Chase.

2. PUB casino

This pub is a hive of entertainment, and there’s not a drink in sight. With plenty of mobile slots and table games, including blackjack, roulette, baccarat and poker, you won’t be short of ways to wager money. 

I would love a few more digital table games, but the live casino more than makes up for the gaps in this area of the app. For me, the main reason to try Pub Casino is its casual games. Offerings such as Rock, Paper, Scissors and Flipping Fortunes are not only fun but simple enough that even a complete casino newbie can easily ante up. 

When you combine the novice-friendly games lobby with almost instant withdrawals via Apple Pay, it’s hard not to call Pub Casino one of the best gambling sites for newbies.

3. Virgin Games

Rewards and freebies are the two reasons I joined Virgin Games. The fact that real-money players can play selected slots for free every day is hugely impressive. A lot of UK online casinos offer free spins, but none do it on a daily basis, like Virgin Games. 

You’ll notice from my list of pros and cons below that you can’t make withdrawals via Apple Pay. I can’t pretend I’m happy about this. Any casino that offers Apple Pay deposits (as Virgin Games does) should make it a withdrawal option. That being said, you can make almost instant withdrawals using Visa Direct. 

For a final flourish, Virgin Games offers poker and bingo. Again, that’s something of a unique twist on the usual line-up games you’ll see at the top UK gambling sites. So, if you want to try something different while making safe Apple Pay deposits, I recommend Virgin Games.

🤳 The ideal Apple Pay user

The ideal Apple Pay user is, obviously, someone with an iPhone or iPad. Without one of these devices and an associated Apple account, you can’t use this payment method. 

The second requirement is that you’re a registered user with one of my recommended Apple Pay casinos. You can be a member of more than one UK online gambling site, but at least one of them must offer Apple Pay. 

Assuming you’ve got the basics in place, the ideal Apple Pay casino user is someone who wants the following things…

  • Instant deposits and withdrawals that take no more than 48 hours. 
  • A simple one-touch way to make deposits and withdrawals.
  • An easy way to play mobile casino games.
  • Enhanced security features such as Touch ID and Face ID. 
  • The ability to make payments without entering your credit/debit card details or banking details.

I’m not saying you have to want all or any of these things to use Apple Pay. However, if you’re willing to try new technologies and want easy ways to make mobile gambling payments, Apple Pay is ideal.

Pros and cons of using Apple Pay at online casinos

Some players I’ve spoken to love the convenience of Apple Pay, while some see the ability to make instant mobile payments as a potential problem. I don’t think instant payments are a problem, but I can see why people might think so. 

The fact that you can deposit and withdraw funds with a single tap does pose a risk for people prone to wagering more than they can afford to lose. However, as long as you adhere to the basic tenets of responsible gambling and set sensible deposit limits, this shouldn’t be a problem. 

Based on my experience, this is the main argument against using Apple Pay for online casino transactions, but there are other things to consider. Some of the other pros and cons to think about are:

💛 Pros

  • You can verify payments using Touch ID/Face ID security instead of standard passwords.
  • Payments can be completed in less than 30 seconds. 
  • Funds are processed safely using Apple’s cutting-edge mobile encryption software. 

🛠️ Cons

  • This method is only available to iOS users. 
  • Not all UK online casinos offer Apple Pay for withdrawals. 

📋 How to make a deposit with Apple Pay

Making Apple Pay casino deposits is easy if you’ve already got an account with one of my top picks. If that’s the case, you can start from step #3 on the list below. For anyone who’s yet to join an Apple Pay online casino, here’s how to do it:

1. Create an account with one of my recommended Apple Pay casinos, such as sport BET.

2. Go to the Apple Store and download your chosen casino’s mobile app.

3. Log into your casino account via the iOS app.

9. Enter your Apple Pay password or use Touch ID/Face ID to verify the transaction. 

Your funds will be available instantly once you’ve successfully completed the above steps. 

⚖️ Apple Pay method compared to others

Apple Pay stacks up well when it’s compared to other UK online gambling payment options, which is why its popularity is increasing. Let’s take a look at how it compares in four key areas to see if it’s the right payment method for you:

*For clarity, I’ve used sport BET, Pub Casino, and Virgin Games as the basis for withdrawal limits and processing times. 

💡 Tips when using Apple Pay as a preferred payment method

The simplicity of Apple Pay means that it’s almost impossible to mess up transactions. While that’s true, there are some things you can do to get the most out of this innovative payment method. 

With this in mind, here’s how to use Apple Pay responsibly and take full advantage of its features:

  • Make sure Apple Pay is connected to a bank account suitable for online gambling transactions. Specifically, the funds in your bank account should be disposable income, i.e. money set aside for gambling. 
  • Enable Touch ID/Face ID on your device to provide an additional layer of security to each transaction.
  • Set a deposit limit via your casino account. You can do this before your first deposit or within the responsible gambling section of your account page. 
  • Only use Apple Pay for deposits if you’re happy to have winnings sent to this method. Online casinos typically require you to withdraw money to your original deposit method. If this isn’t possible, you can use another method. Therefore, if you use Apple Pay for your first deposit, it will be your default withdrawal method if possible. 
  • Make small deposits rather than one large deposit. One of Apple Pay’s benefits is the fact that you can make deposits from as little as £5. Use this to your advantage by dividing up your bankroll so you can make small deposits at multiple casinos and claim multiple bonuses. 

🧑🏻‍⚖️ My final verdict

Apple Pay has become my default method for mobile casino payments over the last 12 months. I previously put all my faith in PayPal and, to some extent, still do. However, there’s something about the convenience of Apple Pay that I can’t escape. 

If you’re someone who prefers gaming on the go, Apple Pay is the only viable option, in my opinion. It’s extremely easy to use, transactions are processed swiftly, and there are multiple layers of security. 

Why do I like using Apple Pay at online casinos?

I’m a big fan of mobile slots, and Apple Pay makes it easy to spin the reels of real-money hits such as Starburst and Big Bass Bonanza. 

As well as giving me the necessary funds to play for six-figure prizes, the speed of Apple Pay transactions means I can jump into the slots competition without missing a beat. When you add ongoing promotions to the mix, Apple Pay is an ideal way to get more value from your time online. 

Where could Apple Pay use some improvements?

As much as I rate and recommend Apple Pay for casino players with an iPhone or iPad, I have to be honest and say it’s not perfect. Aside from the fact that it’s not available at every UK online casino, withdrawals could be improved. 

Some UK casino sites only offer Apple Pay deposits. I’d make Apple Pay a default withdrawal method if it’s available for deposits. In line with this, I’d increase the amount you can withdraw using Apple Pay. 

Although I’ve never hit the maximum withdrawal limit, some people might, particularly if they win a progressive jackpot. Most UK online casinos allow you to withdraw between £35,000 and £50,000 via Apple Pay. 

To reiterate, that’s a limit most people, including me, won’t hit in a single transaction. That being said, there may be times you want to withdraw more. Bank transfers are the obvious alternative for transactions over £50,000, but it can take up to 7 days to get your winnings via this method. 

Therefore, if I’m being needlessly critical, I’d say that Apple Pay would be even better if the maximum withdrawal limit was increased to £100,000. What’s more, deposits are often capped at £1,000. This limit could also be increased to ensure Apple Pay is as suitable for high rollers as it is for casual casino players.

❓ FAQ about making Apple Pay transactions at online casinos

1. Are there fees when I use Apple Pay as a payment method?

You won’t pay any fees when you make deposits or withdrawals using Apple Pay. The best online casino absorbs any processing fees levied by third-party processors, including Apple Pay. This means you can make transfers, no matter how big or small, without paying any extra costs. This is particularly important for withdrawals because you get to keep 100% of your winnings. 

2. How long does it take for deposits and withdrawals via Apple Pay to be processed?

Apple Pay online casino deposits are processed instantly, and the average time for withdrawals is 24 hours. The majority of top-rated UK online casinos have security protocols in place for real money withdrawals. These protocols ensure that requests are legitimate and not fraudulent. The quicker a security review is conducted, the sooner you’ll receive your winnings. For example, sport BET typically reviews requests within 24 hours, which means withdrawals are usually completed in a day. 

3. Are there any casino-specific promotions or cashback offers available for using Apple Pay?

Online casino bonuses aren’t linked to specific payment methods such as Apple Pay, but there are ways to get something extra using this payment method. Specifically, the best UK online gambling operators offer mobile casino bonuses. Because Apple Pay is a mobile casino payment method, it’s the ideal way to claim bonuses designed for iOS users. Check out popular UK casino sites such as PUB, Virgin Games, and Casumo for mobile bonus offers.
