With the start of the Premier League season a week away, John Bennett will be joined by the former USA, Tottenham and Aston Villa goalkeeper Brad Friedel and the former England, Liverpool and Everton striker Natasha Dowie to preview the campaign. Can Liverpool retain the title? Will Manchester City win a trophy? Will Manchester United bounce back from a disappointing campaign? And will any of the promoted teams avoid the drop? All these questions will be attempted to be answered.
John Bennett visits Egypt to assess the impact and legacy of one of the nation’s biggest icons - Mohamed Salah. We chart his journey from his home village to becoming one of the best footballers in the world with Liverpool.
We’ll bring you the best of the interviews from the new series of our podcast series On The Podium, which returns this month. Eliza Skinner and Ed Harry find out what it takes to make it to the Olympic and Paralympic Games.
We’ll talk about the former Zimbabwe captain Brendon Taylor, who is playing his first international after a serving a three-year ban for failing to report a match fixing approach. There will be the latest from The Hundred cricket, Cincinnati Open tennis and the final warm up games for some of the major players ahead of the Women’s Rugby World Cup. We’ll check in on the WNBA season and the Africa Nations Championships.
