After a lackluster season with Villarreal, it appears Mexican international Giovani Dos Santos is looking at a move to the MLS.
His representatives has reportedly initiated talks with the LA Galaxy, although spokespeople for the franchise and the MLS have so far denied any interest in the Mexican.

What a final and what a surprise? After 120 hard-fought minutes and 10 penalties, Sweden kept the upper-hand against Portugal to claim their first ever victory in the UEFA Under 21 European Championship. For many, including me, this 4-3 victory after penalties comes as a huge surprise as nobody really had Sweden down to win the tournament.
It’s been set. The Champions League Final will be held in the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff, Wales, and the Europa League Final will be at the Friends Stadium in Stockholm, Sweden.

Striding past three defenders and a shot at the end blew the goalkeeper straight through the back of the net. A quick apology at the end and Hulk is ready to have another go.
England has done it again. Disappointed that is.
The England Under 21 side lost to Italy this week by 3 goals to 1. The loss left the Three Lions at the bottom of Group B with only 3 points from their 3 matches, and eliminated from the U21 European Championships. Typical of England, to say the least.
Germany and France were tied at 1-1 after 120 minutes of play and tied 4-4 after eight made penalties. Then Celia Sasic made her second penalty of the day, and Nadine Angerer saved Claire Lavogez’s effort and Germany were through to the semifinals.
The game was an especially lively one, with both sides showing the class that made them ranked first (Germany) and third (France) in the world.
France made a grab for the lead in the first minute, but Louisa Necib’s shot went wide.
Musical artist and rapper Jay Z has announced the signing of the first European footballer to his own sports agency label called Roc Nation Sports. German defender Jerome Boateng joins current American sport giants like Kevin Durant, CC Sabathia, and Dez Bryant with the Roc Nation group.
