Gattuso confirms his future

Gennaro Gattuso looks set to continue coaching Napoli for at least one more season, as the coach himself has chosen not to exercise the option of terminating his contract at the end of the season.

According to the agreement between the parties, Gattuso could leave Napoli if he notified President De Laurentiis by April 15, as otherwise the signed contract, which lasts until June next year, would remain in force.

Now the only way for the parties not to work together is for De Laurentiis to decide to fire the technician, but at the moment it seems impossible, as the Neapolitan boss seems pleased with Gattuso’s work.

Moreover, even the transfer market that Napoli is making for next season, is all with the approval of Gattuso, that in the next season will lead a new team built by him and will try to achieve major goals.

Donnarumma continues his contract with Milan?

The Italian goalkeeper seems to be focused only on the current club, removing the dilemmas for his future.

Gianluigi Donnarumma’s future looks set to be linked with Milan.

The Italian daily “Tuttosport” writes that the Italian goalkeeper is expected to extend his contract with “Rossoneri”.

The 21-year-old was linked with a possible departure from the San Siro at the end of this season.

However, this medium is convinced that the Italian representative is determined to continue his career with the Red and Blacks.

Donnarumma’s current contract will expire at the end of the season.

Juventus, Chelsea and Paris Saint-Germain have also shown interest in his services.

Of course, the Italian goalkeeper would continue the experience at Milan only if he is offered a bigger contract.

Saints to sign QB Hill through 2021, source says

METAIRIE, La. — While the New Orleans Saints are closing in on a deal with quarterback Jameis Winston, they doubled down on their investment in current backup Taysom Hill.

The Saints are signing Hill to a two-year deal, a source told ESPN’s Adam Schefter, which will take the place of the one-year, $4.641 million tender they had previously offered him as a restricted free agent. The deal is worth $21 million, including $16 million fully guaranteed at signing, plus $1 million more in performance incentives.

Hill posted a message on Instagram on Sunday, saying, “I’ve had this dream since I was a little kid of playing in the NFL. The New Orleans Saints made that dream a reality. … Thank you NOLA.”

Hill, 29, did not sign an offer sheet with any other NFL teams before last week’s deadline for restricted free agents, which gave the Saints exclusive negotiating rights. Depending on how they structure the new deal, they could create some extra salary-cap space to help make room for Winston.

Yahoo Sports was first to report the details of Hill’s contract.

Regardless of Winston’s pending arrival, Saints coach Sean Payton has made it clear that he believes the versatile Hill could potentially succeed Drew Brees as New Orleans’ starting quarterback. But in the meantime, part of the reason the Saints are interested in adding a veteran QB like Winston is so that they can continue to use Hill in his vital role as a QB/RB/WR/TE/FB/special-teams standout.

“Taysom’s earned this opportunity to be our 2 [at quarterback],” Payton told WWL Radio last month after former Saints backup Teddy Bridgewater signed with the rival Carolina Panthers. “But he also has earned the opportunity to play and help us win football games as a ‘one.’ And what I mean by that — whether you call him a receiver, a tight end, a specialist, also a quarterback — yeah, he’s gonna play.

“He’s too good a football player [not to be on the field]. He’s one of our better football players.”

Hill has only attempted 15 passes in his three-year NFL career — including a 50-yard completion in New Orleans’ 26-20 playoff loss to Minnesota in January. He is 7-of-15 passing for 169 yards with zero touchdowns and one interception.

But the 6-foot-2, 221-pounder has run for 410 yards and three touchdowns and has caught 25 passes for 265 yards and eight touchdowns in 42 games, including in the playoffs.

Hill’s best game was arguably his most recent one — that playoff loss to the Vikings, when he completed the 50-yard pass, ran the ball four times for 50 yards and caught two passes for 25 yards, including a touchdown.

Hill told Schefter earlier this offseason that he planned to consider his options in free agency but was “in no hurry to leave New Orleans.”

“As I look at my career, I have goals and I have a vision for myself as to what I can be in the NFL,” said Hill, who has always made it clear that he wants to be a starting NFL quarterback. “And there has been nothing that has been said, or I’ve never been treated in any way that would lead me to believe that the vision I have for myself is not the same vision that Coach Payton has for me, as well as the other guys on staff.”

Hill got a late start to his NFL career since he went on a two-year church mission to Australia after high school, then spent five years at BYU, where he suffered a total of four season-ending injuries. But he was impressive enough as a dual-threat QB at BYU to finish his career with 6,929 passing yards, 43 TD passes, 2,815 rushing yards and 32 rushing TDs. He began his NFL career as an undrafted rookie with the Green Bay Packers in 2017 before the Saints claimed him off waivers on cut-down day.

Colts draft possible QB of future Eason at No. 122

INDIANAPOLIS — The Colts selected University of Washington quarterback Jacob Eason in the fourth round (No. 122 overall) of the NFL draft on Saturday.

Eason was the sixth quarterback taken in the draft, behind Joe Burrow, Tua Tagovailoa, Justin Herbert, Jordan Love and Jalen Hurts.

Finding a quarterback of the future was something the Colts had to address at some point because Philip Rivers, Jacoby Brissett and Chad Kelly will all be free agents at the end of the 2020 season. Colts general manager Chris Ballard said during his pre-draft news conference, and reiterated again on Friday night, that they were not going to force the issue in selecting a quarterback in the draft.

But having Eason, who some projected as a possible first-round pick, still available in the fourth round was an opportunity the Colts couldn’t pass up. He’ll have the opportunity to sit and learn from Rivers, who is headed into his 17th season, in 2020.

There’s also the possibility that Eason could be the primary backup quarterback next season with Brissett’s status with the team up the air after he struggled last season as Andrew Luck’s replacement.

Eason, who transferred to Washington after spending his first two years at Georgia, threw for 3,332 yards, 32 touchdowns and eight interceptions last season with the Huskies.
