The incident, Thailand's deadliest in about four years, sparked renewed gun-control debate, prompted mental-health support for students, and led Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul to suspend new firearm permits and review existing licenses.

Despite the hot bat, San Francisco remains unlikely to contend postseason-wise, raising questions about whether 2026 will be a wasted year or a rebuild around his offense.

Mbaye, a Senegal international who can impact the attack as a youngster, followed Villa’s summer of transfers that included major prior sales as they reshape the squad.

Sam Okafor £76m for a teenager and a defender coming off a mid-table Southampton side is a lot of faith in the recruitment team, hope it pays off.
