Paris Saint-Germain have signed Ander Herrera from Manchester United on a free transfer, the club announced Thursday.

- When does the transfer window close?

Herrera's five-year stay at United came to an end after he failed to agree a contract extension with the club.

He will wear the No. 21 with his new club.

"Paris Saint-Germain is the greatest club in France," Herrera said. "It keeps on improving and competes to win every possible title. I was looking forward to coming to Paris and to wearing those colours. I hope to continue to make history with the club!

"Joining this club is an amazing feeling. I also love the city. Paris is the most beautiful city in the world. I promise three things: work, professionalism and passion. I also promise to improve my French because I think that the language is very important for the team's communication."

Sources told ESPN FC last week that PSG waited for the new financial year to begin before announcing the Spaniard's arrival.

Herrera will replace Adrien Rabiot in the PSG midfield with the France international set to depart on a free transfer.

Herrera's debut is likely to be the Trophee des Champions against Rennes -- who beat PSG in the French Cup -- on Aug. 3.

Herrera joined United from Athletic Bilbao in 2015 and won the FA Cup, League Cup and Europa League.

LYON, France -- Megan Rapinoe continued to insist this week that she'll be available to play in Sunday's Women's World Cup final against the Netherlands, but the United States star admitted she may have already lost the competition for the tournament's most iconic celebration.

Unable to play in Tuesday's 2-1 semifinal win against England because of a hamstring injury, Rapinoe watched from the bench as teammate and co-captain Alex Morgan scored the decisive goal and then mimicked drinking from a cup of tea.

"I think I might have been upstaged," Rapinoe told reporters on Wednesday. "That was next level. That was pretty sharp by Alex."

The range and tone of U.S. goal celebrations has become one of the stories of the tournament, from the Americans continuing to celebrate goals through the end of a 13-0 opening win against Thailand to Rapinoe's arms-outstretched poses after scoring back-to-back braces against Spain and France to Morgan's choice of material in the semifinal.

Some around the world have criticized the U.S. for arrogance -- a claim winger Christen Press flatly rejected -- with a contingent of fans and media in England the latest to take exception.

"Wah, wah, wah," Rapinoe said in mock crying when asked for a response to the criticism. "We're at the World Cup, what do you want us to do? This is the biggest stage, the biggest moment.

"I don't think anyone truly believes that we disrespect the game or disrespect our opponents. We have the utmost respect for England and every team that we've faced and every team that we will face forever and ever. That's part of the DNA of this squad.

"With that said, we work hard, we like to play hard and we like to have fun and enjoy ourselves."

Next up is the final against the reigning European champions. After her team beat Sweden to reach its first World Cup final, Dutch midfielder Danielle van de Donk was asked if she thought Morgan had a new celebration lined up for Sunday.

"I don't think she's going to score against us," Van de Donk said.

Nor, apparently, have the Dutch been preparing counter measures.

"I don't think of celebrations or anything because I don't really care who scores," Van de Donk continued. "As long as someone does."

Arjen Robben has announced his retirement from professional football after playing a key role in Bayern Munich's golden decade.

"I will definitely retire. And it's good as it is," Robben, 35, said in a statement released to German media on Thursday. "It's the hardest decision I had to make in my career."

Robben, whose contract at Bayern Munich expired on June 30, added: "My heart says yes, my body says no."

Injury prone throughout major parts of his enormously successful career, Robben missed most of his Bundesliga farewell tour in 2019 as he once again battled several injuries.

"It is a decision in which heart and mind collide. The reality is that things don't work the way they did when you were 16," Robben said.

In his last match at the Allianz Arena, Robben was on target for Bayern as the German giants sealed a seventh consecutive Bundesliga title, before going on to win another domestic double the following week.

After stints with FC Groningen, PSV Eindhoven, Chelsea and Real Madrid, Robben joined Bayern Munich in 2009 and went on to become one of the club's greats in the decade to follow.

Featuring in 201 Bundesliga games, he scored 99 goals and set up a further 62.

The 2010 World Cup finalist appeared in a total of 110 Champions League matches for Eindhoven, Real Madrid, Chelsea and Bayern.

He crowned his time at the club by scoring the late winner in the 2013 all-German Champions League final against Borussia Dortmund, which Bayern won 2-1.

During his career, Robben won eight German Bundesliga titles, five German cups, two Premier League trophies, one FA Cup, one La Liga title, two Dutch cups and one Eredivisie title on top of the Champions League and Club World Cup in 2013.

He participated in three World Cups and three European championships.

West Indies 311 for 6 (Hope 77, Pooran 58, Lewis 58, Holder 45, Dawlat 2-73) beat Afghanistan 288 (Ikram 86, Rahmat 62, Brathwaite 4-63, Roach 3-37) by 23 runs

As it happened

Eighteen-year-old Ikram Alikhil came within three shots of becoming the first teenager to hit a World Cup century, and Rahmat Shah made a velvet-smooth half-century of his own, but it was still not enough for Afghanistan as they exited the World Cup without a single point from nine matches. Three of West Indies' brightest young batting talents - Evin Lewis, Shai Hope and Nicholas Pooran - made ebullient half-centuries as well, which formed the centerpiece of their 311 for 6.

The target always seemed away from Afghanistan's reach, but Ikram and Rahmat brought it closer with their 133-run partnership - the highest for the side this World Cup. Once both the set batsmen - and later their best batsman Najibullah Zadran - fell, it was curtains for them.

WATCH on Hotstar (India only): Highlights of West Indies' win over Afghanistan

Batsmen from either side provided a glimpse of the promising future, but it also left Afghanistan and West Indies wondering what might have been had they got their act together when it really mattered.

The sun was out in the morning at Headingley, and West Indies' battery of young batsmen lit it up further, despite the early exit of Chris Gayle. The big Jamaican nicked off for 7 in his last World Cup match, but a fit-again Lewis and Hope injected impetus into the innings. Hope, dropped on 5 at midwicket by Rashid Khan, played the shot of the day, when he twinkled down the track and launched Mohammad Nabi over his head for six.

After seeing off Mujeeb ur Rahman's new-ball spell on a fairly slow track, Lewis swung left-arm seamer Sayed Shirzad over square-leg and then Gulbadin Naib over midwicket for sixes. He moved to 58 before the slowness of the pitch forced him into dragging a short legbreak from Rashid to deep midwicket.

Hope, though, was more decisive against spin. He stretched right forward to full balls - and often went down the track to get the ball in his arc - while going right back to the shorter ones. He took Rashid and Nabi for 45 off 45 balls before the offspin-bowling allrounder combated brawn with brain. Hope had just crunched Nabi down the ground for back-to-back fours at the start of the 38th over, but then Nabi shifted his angle to around the wicket and cramped the batsman, resulting in a catch to deep midwicket.

Pooran got a life on 7 in the next over and punished the sloppy Afghans along with his captain Jason Holder in a blazing 105-run stand. All told, West Indies slammed 111 from the last ten overs of their innings.

Once again, Pooran showed why West Indies' selectors had taken a punt on him even though he was just one ODI old before the World Cup. He followed up his maiden century with 58 off 43 balls, which was a fine cocktail of power and precision.

Holder's cameo - 45 off 34 balls - was all about power. When Mujeeb Ur Rahman speared a 101kph dart on middle, he dropped to one knee and smoked it 30 rows beyond midwicket. What about Dawlat Zadran's back-of-the-hand variation? Smoked over the same region again. Mujeeb's yorker? Holder backed away and jabbed it to the third-man boundary.

Pooran and Holder were both dismissed at the start of the last over, but Carlos Brathwaite went 6, 4, 4 to vault his side past 300.

Kemar Roach jolted Afghanistan's chase early when he had Naib flapping a catch to short midwicket. Ikram and Rahmat then propped them with up with some dazzling strokes. While Rahmat was strong off the front foot, unfurling a variety of drives, Ikram pumped Roach down the ground and even emulated Shakib Al Hasan's cut with both his feet in the air.

Rahmat was the first to get to a fifty, off 57 balls, before Ikram found a higher gear and outscored him. The stand was snapped in the 27th over, simply enough, but was celebrated in grand style. Gayle's catch at short cover was a sitter, but it was his vaudevillian celebration - half-a-dozen perfectly synchronised push-ups with Brathwaite, the bowler - that made it memorable.

Gayle could have dismissed Ikram, too, with the ball on 73, but Hope botched a stumping chance. Ikram added 13 to his tally, before Gayle was at it again, pinning him in front. Asghar Afghan (40) and Shirzad (25) landed some late blows, but the game had been decided by then.

The ending was sweet for West Indies with Gayle getting a rousing reception from his team-mates and the Headingley crowd.

Joe Clarke and Tom Kohler-Cadmore have been cleared to continue playing for Nottinghamshire and Yorkshire respectively, after both players were sanctioned for their roles in the infamous WhatsApp messaging group that came to light during the trial of their jailed former Worcestershire team-mate Alex Hepburn.

The players appeared before the independent Cricket Discipline Commission to answer charges that they brought cricket into disrepute by being part of the group, in which the members discussed sexual conquests.

Hepburn was found guilty of rape in April and jailed for five years.

Both players were served with a four-match ban, which they were deemed already to have served following their exclusions from the England Lions squad in January, and fined £2,000.

Neither Clarke nor Kohler-Cadmore has been charged with any criminal offence and there was no suggestion of any criminal wrongdoing by the pair.

Both players also received an official reprimand, and will be required to attend a suitable course of educational training, under the supervision of the Professional Cricketers' Association (PCA) and ECB.

""The Panel took into account the fact that both players cooperated with the ECB from the outset, as well as the evident remorse they have both shown," said an ECB statement.

Both players accepted their sanctions and later issued statements through the PCA.

"With the CDC proceedings completed I would like to apologise to everyone concerned for my involvement in the WhatsApp group," said Clarke.

"I acknowledge that what I did fell well below the standards expected of a professional sportsman. I am relieved I can now put this chapter behind me. I am extremely grateful for the guidance and support I have received from the PCA, Phoenix Management and Nottinghamshire CCC during this difficult time.

"I have learned a great deal over the past two years and I am thankful that I can now move forward and focus wholly on the rest of the season. I hope I can end the year on a positive note with Notts."

Kohler-Cadmore added: "I deeply regret my involvement in the WhatsApp group in 2017 that led to me being charged by the ECB. I fully accept the subsequent punishment and I now want to move forward with the rest of my career and life in a positive manner.

"It has been a difficult period and I appreciate the support I have received from Yorkshire County Cricket Club and especially the PCA who I will be working with to deliver social media education workshops."

Ireland 242 for 9 (McCollum 73, Tucker 56, Stirling 52, Mire 4-43) beat Zimbabwe 237 for 9 (Williams 58, Burl 53, Murtagh 5-21) by five runs

Tim Murtagh's first international five-for helped Ireland to a five-run win over Zimbabwe in the second ODI in Belfast. After Ireland had been made to scrap for their total of 242 for 9, Murtagh, a month shy of his 38th birthday and playing his 57th ODI for Ireland, tore through Zimbabwe's top order with the new ball, returned to nip out the vital wicket of Sean Williams for 58, and then closed out the game with a nerveless over at the death to finish with 5 for 21. Zimbabwe's pursuit ended at 237 for 9 despite Ryan Burl keeping them in the hunt with a maiden ODI fifty.

Murtagh's second ball of the game was clubbed to the midwicket fence by Zimbabwe captain Hamilton Masakadza, but the visitors managed just one further boundary off him as the veteran seamer perfectly exploited helpful conditions at the Civil Service Cricket Club ground in Stormont. Before his first over was up, he had exacted his revenge by removing Masakadza's off bail, but it was in his third over that he really dented Zimbabwe's chase.

Solomon Mire poked at one outside off to be caught behind for 4, and then came the key dismissal of Brendan Taylor, pinned in front of his stumps for a golden duck. Williams survived the hat-trick ball, but from the depths of 14 for 3 it seemed Zimbabwe's chase had been terminally derailed.

But Williams had Craig Ervine, fresh from a century in the last match and in the midst of a rich vein of form, for company. Ervine took the lead in a 56-run stand before he was caught behind for 43 off Shane Getkate's medium pace, wicketkeeper Lorcan Tucker quick to make amends for an earlier lapse, having dropped a regulation chance in Getkate's previous over.

With the match in the balance, Sikandar Raza tried to seize the initiative with a counter-attacking innings, thumping 15 runs off Getkate in the 21st over to push Zimbabwe's score beyond 100. But one shot too many meant his effort was to be a cameo rather than a match-turning knock, and when he fell to a catch in the deep for 31, when the required rate was less than five an over, parity was restored.

Williams whipped Andy McBrine to the midwicket fence to bring up an unusually patient 76-ball fifty, but as the match wore on a pitch that had worn a greenish tinge all day started to become increasingly two-paced, and it was quickly apparent that Zimbabwe's chase would not be a straightforward one.

Murtagh returned, probing with a wicket-to-wicket line as the odd delivery kept low while others kicked off the track, and soon had a pulling Williams well caught by Andy Balbirnie, close in at midwicket. Richmond Mutumbami was undone by a delivery from Getkate that shot through low, kissing the edge, and Zimbabwe were wobbling 160 for 7 with a further 83 needed, and only the tail to keep Burl company.

He found an able ally in Donald Tiripano, and together they inched Zimbabwe back into contention. With Tiripano battling cramps, the pair took the requirement down to 15 from 12 before Ireland captain William Porterfield turned back to the talismanic Murtagh to bowl his final over, and the penultimate over of the innings. After three dots and a single, Tiripano played over the top of one to be bowled for 33, giving Murtagh his fifth wicket and snapping a 69-run stand.

Zimbabwe needed 14 from the final over, but Mark Adair held his nerve and targeted the blockhole to deny them. Burl reached his fifty, but was run out attempting an unlikely second run off the fifth delivery, leaving Tendai Chatara needing to hit a six just to level the scores. He managed just a single to long-off, and Ireland wrapped up a victory that also gave them an unassailable 2-0 series lead.

Murtagh's wickets helped his team to defend a total that had been built around fifties from Paul Stirling, James McCollum and Tucker. Ireland's was an innings of two halves: the top order dominated the opening salvo, and Zimbabwe's frontline seamers struggled to make any inroads despite their captain's decision to bowl first on a track that had a healthy covering of grass.

Eleven boundaries - including three in a row for Stirling off Chatara - flowed in the first Powerplay, and both Irish openers raised their fifties in the same over, the 23rd. But Masakadza then turned to Mire's rarely-used seamers, heralding a Zimbabwean fightback in the second half of the innings, before Zimbabwe's spinners put the squeeze on at the death.

Mire picked up 4 for 43, while Masakadza deployed Raza and Williams to put the brakes on Ireland's charge at the death. The two spinners took a combined 4 for 71 from 16 overs to hold Ireland back, but Murtagh's career-best bowling effort ensured that the hosts' total was just enough to secure the win, and the series.
