Day 41 of the government shutdown

 

The Senate is working to finalize the legislative package that would end the government shutdown, following a key vote late Sunday that saw eight Democrats cross the aisle to embrace a deal.

Senate Majority Leader John Thune told reporters he hoped to hold a final vote on the package "in the very near future," possibly as early as Monday. The chamber still needs to overcome several procedural hurdles to finalize the legislation, and any senator could delay the process.

The final version of the bill will extend government funding through January 2026 and include three year-long funding bills for various federal agencies and programs. In exchange for their votes, the eight Democrats secured a commitment that the chamber would vote by mid-December on extending health care tax credits that have been central to Democrats' demands. That angered many in the Democratic base, who wanted an extension in the deal itself.

The bill will still need approval from the House and the signature of the president before the shutdown ends. House Speaker Mike Johnson said members should begin returning to Washington "right now" in anticipation of a vote later this week, and Thune said he expects the president to sign the legislation

Brighton 2-1 Man City: Milner and Gruda's goals deny Haaland's milestone score

 Manchester City lost at Brighton for the second year running as they went down 2-1 at the Amex Stadium.

2025/2026 Premier League

2 - 1

Milner (67' PEN)

Brajan Gruda (89')

Haaland (34')

Match Report

Manchester City lost at Brighton for the second year running as they went down 2-1 at the Amex Stadium.

City took the lead in the 34th-minute as Erling Haaland prodded the ball home from close range. Brighton had been really poor in the first half and they didn't start the second much better, meaning Fabian Hürzeler turned to his bench.

His quadruple change turned the game on its head, with Brighton equalising midway through the second half from the penalty spot. Matheus Nunes was adjudged to have handled the ball in the area and James Milner made no mistake from the spot.

Both teams pushed for a winner late on but it was the home side who found the third goal of the game, with Brajan Gruda slotting home.

It's now two defeats in a row for City after last weekend's loss to Tottenham, meaning they have taken just three points from their opening three Premier League games.

Barça use €116m reference point during Fermin Lopez negotiations with Chelsea

 There are now less than 48 hours to go until the summer transfer window closes, and Barcelona still do not know whether Fermin Lopez wants to leave. The midfielder continues to attract interest from Chelsea, with whom he has been in regular contact with throughout the week.

On Saturday, it was reported by Fabrizio Romano that Chelsea submitted their opening written offer for Fermin, which was valued in the region of €40m, which was swiftly rejected by Barcelona. The reigning La Liga champions value the 22-year-old closer to €90m at this late stage of the transfer window, which would leave little time to use the funds raised to make their own signing.

As per MD, Chelsea have been told by Fermin’s entourage that an offer of €70m could be enough for Barcelona to given the green light, although the Catalans have pointed to the Club World Cup winners’ previous €116m deal for Moises Caicedo as a reference point during negotiations.

It’s no secret that Premier League clubs are often the biggest spenders, and it has been no different during this summer’s transfer window. Barcelona believe that any player of their attracting interest from one of these sides would be available at a premium, which includes this case with Fermin and Chelsea.

Barcelona would prefer to not sell Fermin at all, and head coach Hansi Flick is confident of retaining the services of the young attacking midfielder. However, they will open the door if he asks to leave, which as of yet he has not done.

It will be very interesting to see how the situation with Fermin plays out. He has been included in the matchday squad for Barcelona’s trip to Rayo Vallecano, but he could drop out if there is any movement throughout Sunday.
