Neymar Will Become The Most Expensive Player In The History Of Football If Signed To PSG – Is He Really Worth It?
Reports continue to claim that Neymar is on the brink of a world record-breaking move from Barcelona to Paris Saint-Germain (PSG).
If Neymar officially agrees to move to PSG for £200m, the Brazilian would become the most expensive player in the history of the game🙌
It is claimed Neymar has already agreed terms over a move to France as he is keen to get out of the shadow of Lionel Messi at the Camp Nou in order to stake his own claim to being the world’s best footballer.
Someone even claimed that Neymar can’t dethrone Messi or it is impossible for Neymar to become the World Best if he still plays for Barcelona alongside Messi – Can this be the cause of his Exit from Barcelona to PSG?
The Neymar’s eye-watering transfer fee would be more than double of the current world record set by Manchester United’s £89m capture of Paul Pogba last summer.
However, Neymar now reportedly believes it is time to forge his own path, to be the main man for one of Europe’s elite clubs and become recognized as the very best in the world at what he does.
According to Neymar’s speech, he’s ready to go out of Messi’s Shadow and become the boss of his own at PSG
Now, the Big Question is…
Is Neymar Worth Being The Most Expensive Player In The History Of Football?

Alvaro Morata, Alexandre Lacazette, Romelu Lukaku- Which Striker Is The Best Signing?? | Drop Your Comments!!
Alexandre Lacazette, Romelu Lukaku and Alvaro Morata are all expected to line-up for new clubs when the action kicks off on August 12.
But who is most likely to hit the ground running and fire their team towards glory?
All three are tipped to smash their future club’s record transfer fees, with Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester United ready to splurge over £180million collectively on new leading men.
Lukaku is the only striker with Premier League experience and may benefit from already forged relationships during his previous spell with the Blues.
Lacazette and Morata will add further star quality to England’s top-flight and will be confident they can take to a new style of play with relative ease.
So We Are Passing The Question To Mptrace Hard Football Fans!! Which Striker Is The Best Signing??
Editor’s Opinion: Certainly Lukaku. He knows the Premier League in and out and a move to Manchester United is an upgrade for the Belgian. I expect him to score 20+ goals next season.

Former South Africa pacer Tsotsobe banned for fixing
The body confirmed in a statement Tsotsobe, 33, had admitted to contravening the anti-corruption code and “has been banned for eight years”.
Tsotsobe initially denied involvement in the fixing, and the ban prohibits him from involvement in any aspect of the sport locally and internationally.
CSA Chief Executive Haroon Lorgat said “it is clear that he was active in plans to participate in spot fixing and hence the sanction imposed on him.”
The player has apologised for his action, saying he was “in a very vulnerable financial state and this dilemma too easily persuaded me to participate in spot fixing”.
The ban runs from 24 April 2017.
CSA stated that the left-arm seamer admitted to one charge of contriving to fix a match in the 2015 RAM SLAM, failing to disclose full details to investigators, two charges of failing to disclose full details of the matter, three charges of failing to cooperate with the investigation and two charges of destroying and concealing information related to the case.
His ban follows that of Gulam Bodi, a Proteas, Lions and Titans player, who was banished from the sport for 20 year for involvement in fixing matches in the 2015 T20 series
Root’s ‘great start’ encourages former skipper Cook
That was the 26-year-old Root’s first match as Test captain since Cook stepped down from the post in February and saw the new skipper star with the bat as well in making a first-innings 190. “It was a great week for English cricket,” Cook told Sky Sports on Wednesday.
“For Joe Root to get off and win a game by 200 runs and get 190, it doesn’t get much better than that,” added the 32-year-old Cook, still in the England side as an opening batsman.
“I am really pleased for him. He had a horrible cold all week, but I thought he was outstanding.
“When he did speak in the dressing room his messages were very clear. The confidence he will have got from last week, it is always important to start well.
“He got the monkey off his back in terms of getting a big score early on in your captaincy career, which stops everyone talking about captaincy affecting your batting.
“I think all in all he will have gone to bed Sunday night a very happy man.”
No one knows more about the pressures of leading the team than Cook, who captained England in a record 59 Tests before standing down following a 4-0 series loss in India late last year.

Lil Uzi Vert - Alone Time
Complex has shared two new tracks from Lil Uzi Vert, including the minor-key Maaly Raw produced "Alone Time." Clearly, the title is meant to be ironic; Lil Uzi paints multiple pictures of his sexual encounters, and more often than not, they're polyamourous. It seems like Uzi is really embracing the rockstar life, moving past the days of pining over Brittany and diving headfirst into a sea of eager groupies.
It's unclear whether this track is meant to appear on the anticipated Luv Is Rage 2 or whether they're simply b-sides, but still, new Lil Uzi is always welcome.
Lil Uzi Vert - Repercussions
The beat is loud and industrial, with an uncomfortable synth progression and distorted percussion. Lil Uzi's autotuned wails howl like a lean-infused wolf, while the main melody repeats, a drug addled nursery rhyme.
Madeintyo - Baybe Baw$e
It’s unclear at the moment if any of these releases will see life on the album or just something to hold us over until it arrives, but either way we’re all for it. Take a listen to the follow up to “Picture me Rollin” with Sonny Digital & let us know what you think.

Nosa Ft. Nathaniel Bassey – Most High
The single clearly depicts appreciation of God in the Christian faith. It was clearly in Nosa’s plan to usher in the remaining half of the year in a spirit of thanksgiving.
“This is the first song of my forth coming worship project and it falls right in the season where God has just opened the doors and windows of heaven and there is so much praise in the air. I am excited to have Nathaniel Bassey on it as much as he too is excited to be a part of it. This song is just for us to open up our hearts and praise God for who he is.”
“Most High” was written and self-produced by Nosa himself.

JAY-Z - The Story of O.J.
One of the hottest songs off JAY-Z‘s new 4:44 album is the second track “The Story of O.J.” No I.D. chopped the hell out of a crazy Nina Simone sample and Hov is really spitting. Now, he’s dropped the video for the song, and you can watch it below via Tidal.
Directed by Mark Romanek and Hov himself, the animated video stars a character named Jaybo who eats watermelon and picks cotton before meeting a sudden end. The video is rather dark, but it speaks to how personal this new album is. 4:44 finds Jay in a place we’ve rarely seen him before—being honest to the point of vulnerable, especially about his relationship with Beyoncé.

Reaction to the Knicks signing of Tim Hardaway Jr
So lets break this down:
Not the triangle but the circle:
So 2 years ago the Knicks traded Hardaway for a draft pick, which became Jerian Grant. Then Grant was traded to the Bulls for Derrick Rose and now the Knicks are letting Rose walk, giving up his cap hold and using it to sign Hardaway. It has come full circle. They don't believe in triangles any more but circles are fine. That is mind-blowing, only the Knicks can do something like this.
Noah 2.0:
I will say the Noah trade is still worse but they over-spent on Hardaway. We just saw Waiters and Olynk both get paid in the $50million range, both players are similar level player to Hardaway. All 3 are borderline starters. On top of that the Hawks were expecting to only offer around $42-45 million to Hardaway. Why pay him $20 million over his market price? I understand with RFA you have to pay more to pry them from their original team but $20 million more. I don't get it.
The Knicks don't believe in PGs but love SGs:
This is two straight off-seasons the Knicks have spend money on a SG. Do they realize that SG is the weakest position in the NBA? PG, their biggest need for the last 5 years has yet to be solved. You really wonder who is making these moves. They now have $30-35 million locked up to SG and don't even have a starting PG. You wonder why the Knicks are the butt of the jokes in the NBA. Even the Kings have been better and look like a team that has smartened up.
Overall this move was a head-scratcher. Tim Hardaway Jr is an excellent player that will help this team in the scoring department. I don't have a problem with the player but the price and fit. The Knicks over-paid for a player and at a position they already had a starter at. Maybe they will trade Lee, which makes this move look better as Hardaway is 25. But it feels like those same old Knicks. We thought Phil was the problem but the problem maybe all the way upstairs with the owner, who hires these guys.

Kendrick Lamar's "DAMN." Is The Best-Selling Album Of 2017 (So Far)
Drake is not the only rapper having a phenomenal year. Kendrick Lamar is doing big numbers both in sales and streaming with his critically acclaimed album, Damn. According to reports, K.Dot has the best-selling rap album so far, based on statistics by the Sales Plus Streaming (SPS) numbers in the U.S.
Although Drizzy’s More Life might have earned the biggest in first-week sales, Kendrick’s album has been selling consistently week after week. Back in May, Damn was certified platinum with over 1 million sold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).
Kendrick’s sales could be attributed to his eye-popping videos. Last week, the Compton native released a visually-stunning clip for “Element.” Kendrick also shot a video for “Loyalty” with Rihanna back in May.
But we must mention that Kendrick’s reign as the top-selling rap artist might be short-lived if reactions to JAY-Z’s new album, 4:44, is any indication. Both fans and critics alike are raving over the project and his animated video for “Story of O.J.” We wouldn’t be surprised if Hov does big numbers both in streaming and sales as well in the upcoming weeks.
Nevertheless, congratulations to Kendrick Lamar. You certainly have earned it.

Help The Less Privileged If You Can, But Don’t Announce It – Patoranking
One act who could care less about the noise being made by celebrities for their charitable organizations is Patoranking.
The God Over Everything crooner, who has managed to steer clear controversies, in a new interview with Sunday Scoop, talked about his background, poverty and why he hustles so hard.
On his background, Patoranking, revealed he has seen and lived in poverty and thus has vowed never to return to such state. According to him, his background was less than comfortable and whenever he remembers this and his present state, it further fuels him to work harder as he is scared of being poor again.
“Whenever I remember where I’m coming from, I am inspired to hustle harder. I grew up in poverty and I don’t ever want to go back to that again. If you listen to my songs, you would notice that I’m always trying to motivate people that there is no one that cannot be successful.
