Russell Westbrook signs with Clippers: Former MVP lands back in L.A. after Lakers trade, per report

Former NBA MVP Russell Westbrook plans to sign with the Los Angeles Clippers once he finalizes a buyout with the Utah Jazz, his agent told Adrian Wojnarowski. Westbrook was trade d from the Los Angeles Lakers to the Jazz as part of a three-team deal ahead of the trade deadline earlier this month. In 52 games for the Lakers this season, the majority of them off the bench, Westbrook averaged 15.9 points, 6.2 rebounds and 7.5 assists per game.

Bruno Fernandes names Portugal teammate he wants Man Utd to sign

Image
Bruno Fernandes has encouraged Manchester United to act on their interest in Benfica midfielder Joao Neves. United have regularly scouted the 19-year-old and were in attendance as he shone in Benfica's recent 2-1 win over Sporting CP, watching the teenager alongside scouts from both Arsenal and Liverpool. Neves' excellent form this season has seen him rewarded with two caps for the Portugal national team. The youngster came off the bench for the final five minutes of October's 5-0 win over Bosnia & Herzegovina and saw another three minutes against Liechtenstein on Thursday. Asked about United's interest in Neves, Fernandes admitted he'd be keen to see the teenager join him at Old Trafford but only if manager Erik ten Hag sees a future for him.
