Thomas Tuchel assesses Sadio Mane's first season at Bayern Munich amid ongoing Saudi Arabia transfer interest.

Lewis Hamilton contacted Red Bull about driving alongside Max Verstappen for the grid’s all-conquering team, Christian Horner has claimed. The 38-year-old signed a new two-year contract – understood to be worth £50million a year – in August to extend his stay in Formula One beyond his 40th birthday. It came amid a season of struggle for Mercedes as Verstappen eased to a third consecutive world title in a dominant Red Bull car. There was speculation over Hamilton’s future for much of the season and Red Bull team principal Horner has now claimed they received an approach from his representatives before he committed to Mercedes. Horner also said the seven-time world champion was in dialogue with Ferrari chairman John Elkann. “We have had several conversations over the years about Lewis joining,” Horner told the Daily Mail. “They have reached out a few times. Most recently, earlier in the year, there was an inquiry about whether there would be any interest. “He met John Elkann (Ferrari chairman), too. I think there were serious talks. “But I can’t see Max and Lewis working out together. The dynamic wouldn’t be right. We are 100 per cent happy with what we have.” I can't see Max and Lewis working out together Christian Horner to the Daily Mail The 2023 F1 season concludes this weekend in Abu Dhabi, where Hamilton was controversially beaten to the drivers’ championship by Verstappen in the final race in 2021. Hamilton has not won a race in two seasons and will finish third in the standings this year, while the Dutchman is bidding for his 19th win of a record-breaking campaign. “We want to get back to the top, and back to fighting for world championships. We are in this together,” Hamilton said when his new deal was announced in August. “We have a lot of work to do, but there is nowhere else I would rather be. You are all stuck with me for a little bit longer.” Read More Las Vegas comes up trumps for Formula One despite rough road Class action lawsuit filed over farcical start to Las Vegas Grand Prix Toto Wolff fuelled by ‘personal anger’ to help Lewis Hamilton win eighth title On this day in 2010: Sebastian Vettel becomes youngest ever F1 world champion Mick Schumacher returns to racing with Alpine in 2024 Guenther Steiner to produce new hit ‘workplace comedy’ show

It's officially Love Island season, which means the next eight weeks' worth of TV will have the nation in a chokehold and send social media spiralling. Monday's episode (5 June) saw the return of Maya Jama as host, welcoming 10 new singletons to the Spanish villa. Despite the buzz around the award-winning reality show, there's already one phrase viewers are over. As always, contestants were asked about their types on paper, which inevitably revived the "tall, dark and handsome" cliché. It didn't take long for Love Island fans to turn to Twitter to vent their frustration, with one saying: "Here we are again with this tall, dark & handsome". Another joked: "Ever contestant when asked their type: 'Tall, Dark & Handsome'". "Let’s officially retire 'tall dark handsome' as the type," a third viewer begged, while another simply said the "slogan needs to die". One person humoured: "Everyone cross 'tall dark and handsome' off ur bingo cards".
