  Fenerbahce are in talks with Liverpool over a deal to sign Divock Origi. The Turkish side are one of five clubs believed to be interested in the striker. Aston Villa ,  Newcastle ,  Brighton  and  Fulham  are all considering a move and could offer Origi a continued stay in the Premier League. But Fenerbahce have made the first move, reportedly with a view to taking the Belgium international on loan. Liverpool are open to the deal providing a loan fee and mandatory obligation-to-buy clause are included. Origi is under contract at Anfield for another four years, but he may be let go for as little as £14m. His sale would only be given the green light if Liverpool have found an adequate replacement.

55-year-old American designer, Tom Ford, who is married to his partner, Richard Buckley, 68, and has a 4-year-old son, stated this in an interview for the December 2016 issue GQ Magazine. "Yes, all men should be penetrated at some point. I think it would help them understand women,” he argues. “It’s such a vulnerable position to be in, and it’s such a passive position to be in. And there’s such an invasion, in a way, that even if it’s consensual, it’s just very personal. And I think there’s a psyche that happens because of it that makes you understand and appreciate what women go through their whole life, because it’s not just sexual, it’s a complete setup of the way the world works, that one sex has the ability to literally—and is expected to and is wanted to—but also there’s an invasion. And I think that that’s something most men do not understand at all.”

He said: 'These players have 18 months on their contracts and, no matter what happens, they will stay for 18 months. ‘Hopefully they’ll stay for longer than that. I can’t give any assurances, but they are completely committed. Beyond that we will try to extend the contracts but I cannot make a subject of that. That’s a normal part of negotiating. The less you talk about it the better it is. We will do the maximum we can for every single player.’  Sanchez has been the subject of interest fro...
