Chelsea parted ways with its UEFA Champions League winning manager Thomas Tuchel on Wednesday shocking just about everybody. A slow start to the season coupled with a disastrous loss to Croatian club Dinamo Zagreb in the Champions League opener was enough for Tuchel to get the axe.
England international midfielder Keira Walsh joined Spanish side Barcelona from Manchester City, the Women's Super League club said on Wednesday, with British media reporting the deal was for a world-record fee of around 350,000 pounds ($401,170).
The previous world record women's transfer stood at a fee in excess of 250,000 pounds, which Chelsea had paid in 2020 to sign Denmark's Pernille Harder from VfL Wolfsburg.

ZAGREB - Dinamo Zagreb claimed a shock victory over Chelsea in their Champions League group stage opener on Tuesday as they beat the 2021 European champions 1-0 at home thanks to a blistering solo run from Croatian forward Mislav Oršić.
Zagreb had conceded in every league game this season but Ante Čačić's team kept a clean sheet against the Premier League side, who topped Europe's transfer spending charts with an outlay of over $299.62 million this summer.
Wolverhampton planea traerle más competencia a Raúl Jiménez. O al menos eso es lo que se desprende de los rumores que ponen al legendario delantero brasileño-español, Diego Costa, en la órbita del equipo inglés.
No es misterio que Jiménez ha estado un poco peleado con el gol y eso ha afectado duramente los números ofensivos de los Wolves. Un dato de la causa es que el club es el menos goleador en la Premier League 2022-23 con apenas tres conquistas en seis encuentros.
MANCHESTER, England - Marcus Rashford struck twice as Manchester United made it four wins in a row and ended Arsenal's perfect start to the Premier League season with a 3-1 victory at Old Trafford on Sunday.

The Premier League has asked referees' body PGMOL to review the decisions made by video assistant referees (VAR) in Chelsea's 2-1 win over West Ham and Newcastle United's goalless draw with Crystal Palace, British media reported on Sunday.
Goalkeeper Connor Maseko was sent off for urinating in a hedge during an English FA Cup first-round qualifying match on Saturday.
Maseko, playing for ninth-tier Blackfield & Langley, was shown a red card in the 76th minute of the goalless draw with Shepton Mallet.
After the ball went out for a goal kick, Maseko needed to use the toilet and decided to go up against a hedge. He was seen by Shepton Mallet players who drew the incident to the attention of the referee.
Virgil van Dijk has had a turbulent start to the Premier League campaign – falling behind on points with Liverpool, having below par performances and being clowned on social media.
His bad form, along with the whole team, is apparent and mistimed tackles like these can’t tell us otherwise.
Just as deadline day was about to slam shut, Leeds United surprised many by signing winger, Wilfried Gnonto. Anyone familiar with the 18-year-old Italian however, will be aware of the brilliant business done by Jesse Marsch to bring him to England for as little as he did.
