BARCELONA (SPAIN) (ITALPRESS) – Nico Williams’ renewal with Athletic Bilbao has shocked Barcelona, ​​who are now called upon to take action to give Flick a winger. According to the Catalan press, at this point the first choice automatically becomes Luis Diaz, the 28-year-old Colombian from Liverpool: both the player and his entourage have made it known that they are ready to do anything to land at Camp Nou but in light of the tragic death of Diogo Jota, Diaz himself has frozen all negotiations for now.

Plan B is called Marcus Rashford, the 27-year-old English striker leaving Manchester United: his valuation is around 45 million euros but it is a price that is destined to drop given that the player is not part of Amorim’s plans, and a new loan after the one at Aston Villa is not even ruled out.

Among other things, Rashford has reportedly expressed his willingness to lower his salary. On hold, however, are the talks regarding Denzel Dumfries: in Spain they confirm that Jorge Mendes has proposed him to the Blaugrana given the 25 million clause valid until July 15 for transfers abroad, but given the delicate financial situation, Barça wants to be sure of being able to register goalkeeper Joan Garcia and a possible attacking winger before going for the Dutchman from Inter: a decision on this matter should be made next week.

VALLETTA (MALTA) (ITALPRESS/MNA) – A 53-year-old Nigerian man was arrested late Wednesday at Malta International Airport after allegedly smuggling around one kilogram of suspected high-purity cocaine in his body.

The arrest followed a joint operation by the Malta Police Force, Customs officials, and Detention Services. Authorities flagged the man during routine checks upon his arrival on a flight from Brussels.

Further investigation led to an x-ray examination, which revealed a large number of capsules hidden in his digestive system.

He was promptly transferred to Mater Dei Hospital, where medical staff confirmed he had ingested about 100 capsules filled with suspected cocaine.

According to law enforcement, the estimated street value of the drugs is approximately €300,000.

VALLETTA (MALTA) (ITALPRESS/MNA) – Malta, Government plans Euthanasia Bill
Prime Minister Robert Abela has confirmed that the government will introduce a bill on voluntary assisted euthanasia—but only after carefully reviewing the large number of public submissions received during a two-month consultation period. The consultation focused on allowing euthanasia for terminally ill patients with less than six months to live. Abela said the government would not rush legislation. “Publishing a bill tomorrow would mean ignoring the submissions. That would be a disservice,” he told reporters.

RABAT (MOROCCO) (ITALPRESS) – Guatemala considers the autonomy initiative proposed by Morocco in 2007 “the only serious, credible, and realistic basis for reaching a definitive agreement” on the issue of Western Sahara.

This was stated today by Guatemalan Foreign Minister Carlos Ramiro Martinez Alvarado, following a meeting in Rabat with Moroccan Foreign Minister Nasser Bourita.
“The Moroccan initiative represents the only foundation for a lasting, pragmatic, and mutually acceptable political solution, in full respect of the territorial integrity and national sovereignty of the Kingdom,” said Martinez Alvarado during a press briefing.

The head of Guatemalan diplomacy also reiterated his country’s “full and total” support for Morocco’s efforts to end what he described as an “artificial conflict.”
During the meeting, the two countries reaffirmed their shared commitment to defending the principles of sovereignty and territorial integrity.

Guatemala was the first Latin American country to open a General Consulate in Dakhla, in the territory of the Sahara, in December 2022.
