CNN —Manchester City star Rodri has sustained a knee ligament injury that will keep him off the pitch indefinitely, the club has confirmed. He is one of four City players nominated for the 2024 edition of soccer’s most coveted individual prize. Last season, the Citizens lost just three Premier League matches, with all three defeats coming during a period when Rodri was suspended. Since the Spaniard’s Premier League debut, City has lost a third of the games from which he has been absent. Michael Regan/Getty Images“When a team doesn’t play with the best midfielder in the world for a long, long time, it is a big blow,” said Guardiola.

MGX was launched as a dedicated AI fund in March, with Abu Dhabi's Mubadala and AI firm G42 as founding partners.

“Kamala Harris isn’t talking about the historic nature of this,” Walz, the Democratic running mate, told supporters here at a rally. But the strategies of both sides have overlapping objectives, with Trump working to widen his advantage with White men while making gains among young Black and Latino voters. “They both have their qualities, they both have their flaws,” said Hernandez, a North Carolina voter who is torn between Trump and Harris. But the Trump campaign is also targeting many of the same voters, particularly young men whose decision whether to vote – and for whom – could be a turning point in the election. Women make up a slim majority of the electorate, but the degree to which Trump can hold onto male voters could determine the outcome of the November election.

The WNBA is adding its 15th team in Portland, the third new franchise as part of its most recent expansion, the league announced Wednesday. The Portland team will play in the Moda Center, the same arena as the NBA's Portland Trailblazers. Portland has had a WNBA team before, but it shut down after a few years in 2002. The addition of the new Portland team underscores booming growth for both the WNBA and women's sports in general. The 2024 WNBA season has seen record numbers for both in-person attendance and viewership, according to data from the WNBA for the start of the season.
