The new United boss is aware of his side’s need to strengthen at left-back. And Ait-Nouri could prove a strong option, with the Algerian’s contract expiring in 2026 and the 23-year-old likely to vastly improve his salary should he move to Old Trafford. The Sun adds : “Amorim has made signing a left-back a priority. He wants to boost his options given Luke Shaw’s injury record. “Shaw could also eventually move into the back-three once the former Sporting Lisbon manager fully instils his 3-4-3 system at Old Trafford. “Ait-Nouri, an attacking wing-back, ticks all of the boxes for Amorim and the style of the football he likes to play. “Ait-Nouri is currently on a deal of £33,000-a-week at Wolves and the Red Devils would be able to tempt him with a substantial uplift in his wages.” Manchester United have progressed with their interest in Sporting winger Geovany Quenda and are preparing a bid of €60m plus bonuses, A Bola in Portugal reports. United have already been linked with the 17-year-old, before Amorim swapped Sporting for United. But now with Amorim’s move to United strengthening this possibility, the Red Devils are ready to start negotiations for Quenda. A Bola adds : “Sporting are open to negotiations, but with the certainty of keeping the winger until the end of a season, in which they are fighting for a feat they have not achieved in 70 years, a second straight championship that Ruben Amorim promised at the end of the previous season.” Manchester City have two midfielders in their sights as they look to save their season by spending in the January transfer window, the Daily Mail reports. Both Real Sociedad's Martin Zubimendi and Atalanta’s Ederson are being eyed with Rodri’s absence due to injury leading to a five-game losing run, the worst of Pep Guardiola’s managerial career. The Mail writes : “When that shuffling of the pack starts is up to the champions. There is nothing stopping them dipping into the January market if sporting director Txiki Begiristain and Guardiola believe the right player is available. And even though the problems during this worrying run of form are deeper than purely missing Rodri, a central midfielder would be top of City's list. “Real Sociedad's Martin Zubimendi – the man who excelled for Spain in the European Championship final against England after replacing an injured Rodri at half time - has been mentioned, along with Ederson at Atalanta. At 25, neither are old nor raw. “City have been fixated on somebody who can operate in the holding role but also capable of progressing forward; both of those mentioned appear capable of that. Ederson carries slightly more threat going forward, whereas Zubimendi is basically a younger Rodri.”

One of the ways to experience that fun is by using cheat codes that let you do almost anything you want in the game. Rockstar Games programmed a slew of cheat codes in all the different versions of GTA V. The codes can make the player invincible, lower their wanted level or spawn different vehicles. GTA V cheat codes come in different forms. Console players on Xbox or PlayStation platforms will have to enter a certain button sequence on their controller to activate a code. PC players, on the other hand, will need to type in the code by opening up the cheat code text box by pressing the ~ key. There is one extra option where a code can be activated by calling a certain phone number on the in-game cellphone. I've listed out the options for each platform. There are a few things to remember about GTA V cheat codes. Codes can only be used in GTA V's story mode, not GTA Online. Codes will also not activate if you're in a storyline mission. Also, when a code is active, achievements and trophies will be temporarily disabled. Aside from those points, there are no negative actions for using a cheat code, so feel free to use them to your own delight.

Trump Signals First-Day Tariff Hikes Targeting China, Canada, and MexicoTALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) — A state attorney in Florida told his staff he can’t legally help his elected replacement take over his seat because Gov. Ron DeSantis had already suspended the Democrat from the office, according to an internal email obtained by The Associated Press. An executive order issued by DeSantis in 2023 suspending then-State Attorney Monique Worrell from office is still in effect, argued state attorney Andrew Bain in a message sent to staff on Monday. The governor appointed Bain to the 9th Judicial Circuit to replace Worrell, who beat him in last month’s election to retake the Orlando metro area’s top prosecutor’s office. “While I accept the results of the election and wish to do everything I can to ensure the Office is successful going forward, I do not yet feel I can assist her in that transition,” Bain wrote. Worrell’s new term is slated to begin Jan. 7, 2025. She is one of two elected state attorneys, both Democrats, who DeSantis has removed from office. Worrell failed to prosecute minors and didn’t seek mandatory minimum sentences for gun crimes, putting her central Florida district in danger. She disputed his criticism as false and . across the U.S. have called Democratic prosecutors’ decisions into question. Bain said in the email shared with the AP that Worrell’s suspension must be resolved by either another executive order by DeSantis or a decision by the Florida Senate, which reviews the cases of elected officials suspended from office. “Without one of these things, I do not feel I can lawfully assist in a transition to an individual whose lawful suspension was ,” Bain wrote. “We are living through an unprecedented legal event without clear answers.” Representatives for Bain did not respond to phone and email inquiries from the AP. A statement posted to the state attorney’s website Monday appeared to contradict Bain’s message to staff. “The state attorney is ready and willing to ensure a smooth transition,” reads a message released by the agency’s public information office. “The state attorney’s term ends Jan. 6, 2025, and he will no longer be in office. Ms. Worrell’s term will begin Jan. 7, 2025. It is the intent of the state attorney to enforce the will of the people.” Worrell criticized Bain’s statements as a “betrayal of democratic principles” and argued that the executive order suspending her expired with the 2024 election. “No executive order, no political maneuver, and certainly no personal grievance can override the will of the people,” Worrell said in a statement. “Any delay in the transition process is a direct affront to the very people this office serves.” A spokesperson for DeSantis pointed to the statement released by the state attorney’s public information office and didn’t respond to other questions from the AP. ___ Kate Payne is a corps member for The Associated Press/Report for America Statehouse News Initiative. is a nonprofit national service program that places journalists in local newsrooms to report on undercovered issues.
