Arsenal, Everton in contention to sign Rodriguez in January transfer

Arsenal and Everton face a major obstacle in their bid to sign a Real Madrid star, while a Tottenham strike target is available for £25.2m, according to yesterday’s Euro Paper Talk. Everton and Arsenal reportedly have a problem in their January transfer pursuits of Colombia playmaker James Rodriguez. The 28-year-old returned to Real Madrid in the summer after spending two seasons on loan at Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich.

Does the US have a problem with topless women?

Image copyright GETTY IMAGES Image caption Topless women in 2017 protest Women fed up with being forced to cover up their breasts and nipples are challenging American laws about nudity and sparking a debate about the country's attitude to the naked female form. In September, Effie Krokos was awarded a $50,000 (£38,178) civil settlement after she took her shirt off in public in Loveland, Colorado, and was issued a summons for doing so. The 20-year-old was charged with indecent exposure after she played Frisbee topless in her fiance's front yard. She had thought that the law in Colorado had changed and she was safe to take her shirt off when she got hot and sweaty during the game - after all her fiance had removed his top too.
