MILANO: The referee for the Serie A match between Juventus and Inter Milan on Saturday will be equipped with a body camera for the first time, the Italian league said on Tuesday. The high-resolution micro-camera will be mounted on the referee’s headset and used during warm-ups, live match situations such as free kicks, and in replays. The feed will also be available to the video assistant referee (VAR) with selected footage broadcast live. The innovation has already been tested in the United States during the Club World Cup in July, and is part of a wider push by FIFA and the International Football Association Board (IFAB) to enhance coverage of elite competitions. Serie A Chief Executive Luigi De Siervo said the camera would give supporters a unique perspective on the game. “Serie A has always been at the forefront of adopting new technologies, aware of the central role they play in the evolution of television viewing, in promoting our product globally, and in ensuring transparency in refereeing decisions,” he added. The Premier League will also be testing out referee cameras in selected matches for the new season, the BBC reported last month.

LONDON: Ange Postecoglou is back in management after taking over as coach of Nottingham Forest on Tuesday. The Australian was fired by Tottenham in June, but has made swift return to the Premier League — replacing Nuno Espirito Santo at Forest. “We are bringing a coach to the Club who has a proven and consistent record of winning trophies. His experience of coaching teams at the highest level, along with his desire to build something special with us at Forest, makes him a fantastic person to help us on our journey and achieve consistently all our ambitions,” said Forest owner Evangelos Marinakis. Postecoglou’s appointment concluded a frantic 24 hours at Forest, with Nuno’s departure confirmed shortly past midnight on Tuesday, UK time.
Former Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane was surprised by Daniel Levy’s decision to step down as executive chairman after nearly 25 years at the club but said the Englishman’s impact on the club had been transformative. While he was unable to end Spurs’ wait for a first English top-flight title since 1961, Levy leaves behind a legacy that includes a new stadium and state-of-the-art training ground as well as a first major trophy since 2008 following their Europa League triumph last season. “I didn’t expect it, didn’t see that coming,” Kane told British media ahead of England’s World Cup qualifier in Serbia on Tuesday. “Daniel has been a fantastic chairman for Tottenham in the 20 years or so he’s been there. “Considering where the club was and where it is now, I think it’s been a big change, not just on the pitch, but off the pitch as well,” added Kane, who joined Bayern Munich in August 2023. “Overall for Tottenham, it’s a new chapter they’re trying to create now.” Speculation about a possible change of ownership has increased since Levy stepped down, though the club’s majority shareholder has said Spurs are not for sale. While Spurs chief executive Vinai Venkatesham described Levy’s contribution as “extraordinary” he downplayed the potential for upheaval following his departure. “The club is well organized for succession, so we have a very strong executive team in place and, whilst it might feel like a slightly strange thing to say to the external world, although it’s big news, inside the club, it really is business as usual,” he told the club’s website on Monday.
