Peça com maior potencial de mercado existente no plantel da Ponte Preta, o goleiro Ivan pode fazer o mesmo caminho de nomes como o lateral-direito Gilberto e o atacante Everton Cebolinha em relação ao Benfica.
A informação veiculada pelo jornal lusitano ‘A Bola’ é de que o clube de Lisboa está interessado em investir na contratação do arqueiro de 23 anos de idade onde, além do destaque na Ponte, já conta no currículo com convocação para a Seleção Brasileira principal além de ter sido o titular na campanha onde o Brasil assegurou vaga nos Jogos Olímpicos de Tóquio.
A chegada de Ivan, aliás, concretizaria um desejo que já seria alimentado pelo técnico do Benfica, Jorge Jesus, desde o tempo em que o treinador comandou o Flamengo na vitoriosa trajetória onde conquistou quase todas as taças que disputou.
Não existem maiores informações sobre qual seria o estágio das possíveis tratativas para que Ivan rumasse a Portugal.
Segundo o portal que trata de valores de mercado ‘Transfermarkt’, o preço do jovem goleiro estaria na casa dos dois milhões de euros (R$ 13 milhões). Contudo, tendo a última atualização sido feita em abril, esses termos podem ser reajustados para a atual realidade financeira que vivem os clubes em todo o mundo após os efeitos da pandemia.

Chelsea are still extremely active in the summer transfer window with Mauricio Pochettino keen to make more tweaks to his squad, and now a promising update has emerged on the progress of a potential signing.
What's the latest Chelsea transfer news?
According to The Secret Scout, Chelsea have agreed personal terms with Crystal Palace ace Michael Olise ahead of a deal for him to move to Stamford Bridge this summer.
The Secret Scout revealed on Twitter:
"Along with Moises Caicedo. Chelsea finalising move for Michael Olise. Personal terms have been agreed with his representatives.

"Whilst Conor Gallagher is expected to leave this window."
What injury did Nkunku suffer?
The newly-signed Chelsea forward was a highly-anticipated new addition for the Blues this summer, following their difficult campaign in the Premier League which saw the side struggle without a prolific and reliable goal-scorer.
However, the Stamford Bridge faithful will have to wait to see their new star in action as he suffered a horrific injury to his left knee during pre-season that has left him unavailable for selection over the next four months at the very least, according to The Athletic, a huge blow in the Blues' plans for a new era to begin.
How good is Michael Olise?
As a result of that injury, the signing of Olise could not come at a better time for Pochettino and would certainly bolster the goal threat and creativity that is desperately needed in the starting XI over the season ahead.
There is no doubt that the Palace talisman boasts the desired skill set to fill the role of Nkunku during his absence, with Olise a consistent stand-out performer at Selhurst Park, something he displayed perfectly in the Premier League last season.
Over 37 top-flight appearances, the 21-year-old scored just two goals but registered a whopping 11 assists, as well as averaging 1.5 successful dribbles, 1.9 key passes and 1.4 shots in total per game, demonstrating a selfless approach and creative spark that would be a huge asset to Chelsea this season.
Not only that, the France U21 international was one of the best in his position when compared to his positional peers in the Premier League last season – ranking in the top 10% for assists, progressive passing distance, key passes, crosses into the penalty area, shot-creating actions and interceptions per 90 minutes played, as per FBref.
Football talent scout Jacek Kulig profiled the talented player claiming that Olise is an "offensive all-rounder" who possesses strengths in "pace, dribbling, technique, ball control, creativity, crossing, passing, flair" with similar attributes to Arsenal's superstar Martin Odegaard.
Even when Nkunku does return later in the season, the Reading academy graduate could still play a crucial role in the first team as he is extremely versatile in his positioning with the experience of playing in central, attacking and right midfield, as well as on the right wing too.
With that being said, if Chelsea trigger Olise's reported £35m release clause this summer it would provide Pochettino with not only a replacement for Nkunku, but a high-quality playmaker with bags of potential to deploy in the attacking third this season.
Reduces the National Sports Council’s influence in draft constitution as per court’s instructions

The BCB’s constitution is set for an overhaul•IDI/Getty Images
The Bangladesh Cricket Board councilors have unanimously agreed with the draft of the new constitution at their Extraordinary General Meeting that took place soon after their Annual General Body meeting on Sunday. The meeting happened in the presence of 135 out of 170 councilors from all the Dhaka clubs and divisional and district associations.The draft will need approval from the National Sports Council (NSC), which by court’s ruling cannot amend the BCB’s constitution, only after which can the BCB hold elections.The BCB has heeded the court’s directive by reducing the NSC’s influence on the board in the changes they’ve made to the draft of the constitution, last amended in 2012. Among the changes are reducing the number of NSC-quota directors from three to two.Previously, Nazmul Hassan, the BCB president, Ismail Haider Mallick and Ahmed Sajjadul Alam became directors through the NSC quota. The board has also included one former national cricketer as a councilor.Hassan said the BCB abided by the court order, despite the ICC sending its own guidelines to hold elections. He was, however, not sure of how the board would run after the current term ends on October 13.”Our constitution doesn’t have a guideline telling us whether our committee should continue or form an ad-hoc committee,” Hassan said. “The NSC can form a new ad-hoc committee or give us an extension. While we won’t take major decisions during the interim period, we will run the day-to-day affairs and help the election commission. We have to discuss it in the board meeting, talk to the NSC and take legal advice. We will do what the rules tell us.”Hassan also said starting regional cricket associations, which have only been promised in the past, would be their first order of business if they win the election. Currently, the BCB is exclusively run from their headquarters in Dhaka with the country’s seven divisions and 64 districts only ensuring participation in various tournaments throughout the year.”We have said that our first priority is to make regional cricket associations,” he said. “It will make our work more focused. It will improve our cricket. We have kept it the same so that nobody can find any gaps with the 2012 constitution. I am guaranteeing that if we win in the election, we will do this first.”Meanwhile, the Dhaka high court last week issued a ruling seeking explanation from the BCB as to why the functions of the current board of directors should not be declared illegal after a petition was filed by former BCB director Mobassher Hossain.The court however allowed the BCB to hold its AGM and EGM as per its original schedule on October 2. The BCB has said that once it receives the court papers, it will proceed with its explanation which it must submit within four weeks.

Ainda na etapa inicial, o Fantasma teve a chance de retomar a vantagem no marcador com Thomaz. Porém, o chute saiu pela linha de fundo. A resposta do Xavante veio na bola parada de Gegê, que parou no goleiro Rodrigo Vianna.
Aos 12 minutos do segundo tempo o Operário chegou ao triunfo. No chute de Douglas, Schumacer desviou de letra e venceu o goleiro, 2 a 1.
O gol deu ânimo ao Operário, que tomou conta do meio-campo e deu ritmo na partida. Jiménez disparou um chute de fora da área e assustou Rafael Martins.
Given he is also keeping wickets, it is possible Bancroft could be included in any one of three ways in the Australian side: as an opener, No. 6 batsman or gloveman

Cameron Bancroft built a near undeniable case for Ashes selection by adding another innings of real substance to his Sheffield Shield ledger against South Australia at the WACA Ground.Pushed as a candidate by his state coach Justin Langer, Bancroft batted throughout day one to finish on an unbeaten 161, aided by a freewheeling 95 from the Western Australia captain Mitchell Marsh.Given he is also keeping wickets, it is possible Bancroft could be included in any one of three ways in the Australian side: as an opener, No. 6 batsman or gloveman. Either way, he is fitting the definition of “banging the door down” the selectors have been looking for.There were less glad tidings for Shaun Marsh, Hilton Cartwright and the returning Marcus Stoinis. All made starts before being dismissed, Marsh dragging on, Cartwright bowled between bat and pad, and Stoinis caught behind.SA’s bowlers were largely unable to stem the scoring rate, though the wicketkeeper Alex Carey claimed a pair of catches and the recalled Kane Richardson was economical.
Manchester United had many problems alarmingly raised during yesterday's clash, marking yet another poor display to kickstart the new Premier League season…
Who are Manchester United signing?
Erik ten Hag's men looked disjointed and without purpose, both struggling to piece together attacks whilst often getting incredibly fortunate by the profligacy of their opposition.
In the end, Tottenham Hotspur were good value for their 2-0, sending the Red Devils back up north to take a deep dive into their issues.

Whilst seemingly a smaller one, it also showcased another of their outlying fragilities: the right-back position. Once again Aaron Wan-Bissaka failed to impress from defence, struggling to contribute to the attack despite the evolution of the modern-day full-back.
Due to this, and the free-flowing football that his Dutch boss seeks to play, perhaps it gives credence to the recent claims made by Gazzetta dello Sport (via Sport Witness), who suggest that the Old Trafford outfit have €40m (£34m) ready for a potential bid and a huge financial package to tempt Bayern Munich's Benjamin Pavard to join them over Inter Milan.
How good is Benjamin Pavard?
Although the English ace did assist their winner in that opening-day win over Wolverhampton Wanderers, the impact it had on his performance almost mirrored the impact it had on the rest of his team: papering over the cracks.
They were admittedly lucky to win that game, bailed out by a moment of quality as Bruno Fernandes unlocked the staunch backline of their opposition before Raphael Varane headed home.
Then, against Spurs, his 6.6 rating was well-earned, losing three out of the four duels competed in, failing to even attempt a cross and even being dribbled past once too, via Sofascore.
Paul Scholes' statement from 2021 seemingly still rings true: "Wan-Bissaka is useless on the ball – brilliant defender but useless on the ball at right-back."
ten-hag
It hampers the rest of the team when there is such a glaring weakness, and for all of the quality that Ten Hag has signed, leaving this position bare continues to hold back their progression.
As such, Pavard could enter at an opportune moment, almost mirroring the acquisition of Casemiro from a year earlier, who was only signed after they had endured another tough start to that campaign and had their defensive midfield problems publicised.
The French defender boasts a versatility that makes him useful in the modern footballing climate, able to invert into midfield, drop into centre-back or remain in his natural right-back.
Last season in the Bundesliga saw him record a 7.36 average rating, buoyed by his five goal contributions, 90% pass accuracy and 2.3 tackles per game, via Sofascore. His rating actually made him the second-best performer of anyone within the Bavarian outfit as they won the title again.
It seems he has fulfilled the prediction made by former Bayern president Uli Hoeneß, who claimed in 2019: "He has already shown after a few weeks that he will be one of the best transfers that we’ve ever made. For me, what a player costs isn't what matters. It was clear to me that he could be an outstanding signing – particularly because of his great character."
benjamin-pavard-1
Whilst Wan-Bissaka is also characteristically economical with the ball, having maintained an 84% pass accuracy of his own throughout the last full Premier League term, he is not nearly as progressive as the 27-year-old World Cup winner.
When compared to other right-backs across Europe, Pavard actually ranks in the top 6% for non-penalty goals per 90, the top 2% for pass completion per 90, the top 1% for progressive passes per 90 and the top 8% for interceptions per 90, via FBref.
Meanwhile, his potential predecessor instead ranks in the bottom 21% for non-penalty goals per 90, and the bottom 39% for progressive passes per 90, via FBref.
For the football Ten Hag seeks to employ, he must surely act fast to acquire such a huge upgrade for what would be a cut price.
B Indrajith and Washington Sundar led Tamil Nadu’s fightback against Mumbai, while Rajat Patidar and Harpreet Singh Bhatia shored up Madhya Pradesh against Tripura

Andhra captain Hanuma Vihari (302*) slammed his maiden triple-hundred and propelled his team to 584 for 5, before declaring the innings against Odisha in Vizianagaram. Resuming on 278 for 2, Vihari put on a 208-run stand with Ricky Bhui (100) and deflated Odisha, who had to wait 43.3 overs for their first wicket of the day. During the course of his 456-ball knock, Vihari smashed 29 fours and two sixes and added 159 to his overnight score. This was Vihari’s 13th first-class ton and second consecutive score of 150 or more.Bhui, meanwhile, brought up his fourth first-class hundred before Odisha captain Govinda Poddar trapped him lbw in the 134th over. In the next over, seamer Suryakant Pradhan dismissed D Ravi Teja to pick up his second wicket, but nothing was going to stop Vihari’s march. Odisha suffered an early jolt in their first innings when left-arm spinner Bhargav Bhatt had opener Natraj Behera lbw in the fourth over. Sandeep Pattanaik and Poddar, however, ensured there was no further damage as Odisha went to stumps at 32 for 1.B Indrajith (105*) and Washington Sundar (69) mounted a rescue effort with a fifth-wicket partnership of 157 runs to lift Tamil Nadu from 69 for 4 to 239 for 5 by stumps against Mumbai. Indrajith’s sixth first-class hundred, which included 12 fours, stood out as much for its elegance as its risk-free nature. While he mostly preferred to hit down the ground, he wasn’t averse to playing the horizontal shots on either side. Giving him useful company was Sundar, who drove and cut confidently, and responded swiftly to his partner’s calls for tight singles. Sundar, however, fell with 6.2 overs left in the day, after a half-hearted pull off Dhawal Kulkarni found deep square leg.Mumbai had hit the ground running in the morning with some quick wickets after being bowled out for 374. Seamer Akash Parkar cleaned up captain Abhinav Mukund in the fourth over before M Vijay (11) was caught behind by left-arm spinner Vijay Gohil in the 11th over. Mumbai captain Aditya Tare juggled the ball on a few occasions before snaffling it.After Kaushik Gandhi fell three overs later, Vijay Shankar, who had recovered from an injury scare to pick up his fourth wicket in the morning, looked to have settled down in the company of Indrajith. However, he gave Gohil the charge in the 25th over and was stumped. Indrajith, though, remained steady and took Tamil Nadu to safety in the company of R Ashwin.A 62-run partnership between opener Bishal Ghosh (65) and Gurinder Singh, who smashed a 55-ball 57, helped Tripura finish on 220 against Madhya Pradesh in Agartala after tottering on 88 for 6 at one stage.Tripura’s bowlers then reduced Madhya Pradesh to 200 for 7 to set up an interesting battle for the first-innings lead. Ishwar Pandey and Ankit Sharma finished with three wickets each for Madhya Pradesh. In their reply, Madhya Pradesh got off to a shaky start, as they lost opener Wasim Ahmed and Shubham Sharma inside the first 10 overs. With Naman Ojha (8) and captain Devendra Bundela (3), too, falling cheaply, it was left to opener Rajat Patidar (79) and Harpreet Singh Bhatia (70) to resuscitate the innings with a 104-run alliance for the fifth wicket.However, Gurinder trapped Patidar in front with his left-arm spin in the 52nd over before Ankit Sharma and Bhatia were dismissed in quick succession.
