MANCHESTER, England (AP) — Manchester City completed the signing of midfielder Matheus Nunes on Friday after agreeing to pay Wolverhampton a reported transfer fee of 53 million pounds ($67 million).The Brazil-born Portugal international had been refusing to train with Wolves in an effort to force a move to City, which had a lower bid rejected last week. He signed a five-year contract, City said.City manager Pep Guardiola was looking for help in the midfield. The injured Kevin De Bruyne could be out until the new year.City also lost Ilkay Gundogan, who joined Barcelona after his contract expired, and signed central midfielder Mateo Kovacic as a replacement. However, that’s not a like-for-like replacement, with Kovacic operating in deeper areas than Gundogan, who often played as an attacking midfielder just off Erling Haaland.The 25-year-old Nunes typically plays further forward than Kovacic so would offer something different to the Premier League and European champions.“The opportuni...Russian President Vladimir Putin will host Turkish leader for talks in Sochi on Monday — Kremlin

BERLIN (AP) — Italy captain Leonardo Bonucci moved to Union Berlin on Friday, leaving Bayern Munich’s search for a defensive midfielder yet to be cleared up on the final day of the transfer window in Germany.The 36-year-old Bonucci signed at Union — his first time at a club outside of Italy — after falling out of favor with Juventus coach Massimiliano Allegri, who told the highly decorated defender last season that he did not feature in his plans for 2023-24.Bonucci made more than 500 appearances for Juventus and had a year left on his contract there, but he was excluded from preseason training and has been forced to look elsewhere to maintain his hope of captaining Italy at next year’s European Championship in Germany.Union is making its Champions League debut this season after its surprise fourth-place finish from its fourth year in the Bundesliga. The team was only promoted for the first time in 2019.Union was drawn against Real Madrid, Napoli and Braga in the group stage o...NASCAR playoffs begin with Denny Hamlin ready to shake label as greatest driver without a Cup title

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Only 36 points separate the 16 drivers as NASCAR’s playoffs begin Sunday at Darlington Raceway in what might be one of the closest fields in the history of this format. After so many near-misses, is it finally Denny Hamlin’s year?“It’s always my year,” Hamlin said with a wide grin Thursday. Confidence is nice but it has yet to pay off for Hamlin, who can’t shake the tag as the greatest NASCAR driver to never win a Cup Series title. Oh, he’s won the Daytona 500, three times in fact. He’s tied for 13th on the career victory list with 50, only behind two-time Cup champion Kyle Busch and one-time Cup champion Kevin Harvick for most among active drivers. Hamlin has won the Coca-Cola 600, the Southern 500, the Bristol night race and every crown jewel on the NASCAR schedule. His Southern 500 win at Darlington in 2021 made Hamlin one of only four drivers — joining Hall of Famers Cale Yarborough, Bobby Allison and Jeff Gordon — to wi...Denver weather: Nearing record heat on Friday
