The 20-year-old winger had attracted interest from the Blues and Manchester United among others before leaving Genk for Leverkusen in January 2017 for around €20 million (£18m). The Jamaica Under-23 international has scored six times and set up a further four in just 14 Bundesliga appearances this season, apparently persuading Chelsea to return for him next month. Leverkusen are in no mood to entertain such ideas, however, as Boldt maintains they have no desire to let him go and pointed out that it is the German club who hold the power when it comes to negotiations....

Build Back Better was effectively killed by one senator—Joe Manchin, a Democrat from West Virginia, who revealed Sunday that he would not vote for the bill. His decision unleashed a flood of rage—at the people of West Virginia. “What Joe Manchin, who represents a population smaller than Brooklyn, has done to the rest of America, who wants to move forward, not backward, like his state, is horrible,” Grammy-winning singer Bette Midler tweeted last night....

Life is Strange 2 had a far more complex narrative than Life is Strange, tackling a wider variety of social and political issues than the first.

One of the major problems that Edwards is facing is the fact that none of the top Welterweight contenders seem interested in mixing it up inside the Octagon with him.

Colby Covington made various comments following his win over Tyron Woodley with regards to the Black Lives Matter organization - comments that were deemed as highly insensitive....

Stephen King’s IT was a mini-series that aired in 1990 and is considered to be a classic now. It’s story involved a group of friends named as ‘The Losers Club’ who encounter an inter-dimensional predatory entity simply dubbed as ‘IT’. ‘IT’s appearance is also kept dubious as it shape-shifts continuously and takes the form of the prey’s worst fears....
