On July 3, 2569 (2026), the Meteorological Department issued its first alert (No. 104/2569) regarding tropical storm Maliksi. A depression in the upper South China Sea intensified into a tropical storm at 1:00 AM, with its center located approximately 510 kilometers south of Nanning, China at coordinates 17.5°N, 108.6°E. The storm has maximum wind speeds near its center of about 65 kilometers per hour and is moving westward at approximately 20 kilometers per hour. It is expected to pass through Hainan Island and make landfall in southern China between July 4-6, 2026, with its center not entering Thailand.

Under the influence of tropical storm Maliksi, a monsoon trough over the northern and upper northeastern regions, combined with a strengthening southwest monsoon over the Andaman Sea, Thailand, and the Gulf of Thailand, rainfall is expected to increase significantly on July 3-4, 2026, with heavy to very heavy rainfall in some areas, particularly in the northern, upper northeastern, eastern, and southern regions. Between July 5-6, the upper northern and upper northeastern regions will continue experiencing heavy to very heavy rainfall.

Wave conditions in the Andaman Sea and Gulf of Thailand will intensify, with the upper Andaman Sea experiencing waves 2-3 meters high, and areas with thunderstorms seeing waves exceeding 3 meters. The lower Andaman Sea and upper Gulf of Thailand will have waves around 2 meters, with thunderstorm areas experiencing waves exceeding 2 meters. Fishermen are advised to exercise caution and avoid thunderstorm areas, with small boats in the upper Andaman Sea recommended to refrain from leaving shore during this period.

The Lawyersoccer legal experts page has confirmed that Nara United is moving forward with corrections to its club licensing documentation and entering the regulatory committee review phase.

Reports had previously indicated that Nara United might not compete in Thailand's second-tier league due to incomplete club licensing documentation. The vacant slot would have passed to fourth-placed Mueang Loei United, or alternatively to Nakhon Sawan United if Mueang Loei also failed to secure licensing.

The club explained that while it submitted licensing documents within the required timeframe, certain supporting documents were incomplete, leading to the current situation.

In a recent update, Lawyersoccer announced: "We report on the progress of Nara United's club licensing process to keep fans, supporters, and followers informed. After receiving observations about the supporting documentation, the club has urgently worked with its legal advisors to review, revise, and prepare additional documents addressing all relevant issues.

The documentation revisions are now complete, and the club has submitted a comprehensive document package with supporting letters and related materials to the responsible authorities for review according to club licensing procedures.

The process will now advance to the review phase by the Club Licensing Administration's First Instance Body (FIB) and related authorities, following applicable regulations and standards. The club and its legal team respect the committee's discretion and review process in all respects.

We thank football fans and all parties for their continued support of the club. Any official updates will be reported through this channel."

Cristiano Ronaldo plans to retire from the Portuguese national team after the 2026 FIFA World Cup, according to a statement from his sister Katia Aveiro. The 41-year-old has earned 232 caps for Portugal since making his debut in 2003, guiding the nation to victory at Euro 2016 and winning the UEFA Nations League in 2018-19 and 2024-25.

Ahead of Portugal's Round of 32 World Cup clash against Croatia on July 3, Aveiro told Sport TV that Ronaldo will say goodbye to the Portuguese team after this tournament concludes.

"From the information I've received, they may already be saying farewell—not today, but I believe this is the goodbye," Aveiro said. "I'm talking about the national team. From reliable sources, this will be his final dance."

Keito Nakamura has attracted interest from multiple Premier League clubs following an impressive performance with Japan at the 2026 FIFA World Cup. BBC reports indicate that Nakamura, a midfielder for the Japanese national team, is garnering attention from several English Premier League clubs after his impressive display at the 2026 World Cup. Although Japan's World Cup campaign ended in the round of 32, Nakamura started all four matches, scoring one goal and providing one assist. Reports show that at least three Premier League teams—Everton, Bournemouth, and Fulham—have demonstrated clear interest in Nakamura. Additionally, Spanish club Real Madrid and Turkish side Beşiktaş have been linked with the player. Currently with Rennes in France's Ligue 1, the club appears willing to allow the Japanese star to move if presented with a suitable offer. Reports suggest Rennes is seeking a transfer fee of approximately £21.5 million.
