BERLIN (AP) — Italy captain Leonardo Bonucci’s potential move to Union Berlin and Bayern Munich’s search for a defensive midfielder were among the outstanding matters to be cleared up on the final day of the transfer window in Germany.The 36-year-old Bonucci was expected in Berlin on Friday to sign a one-year contract with Union after falling out of favor with Juventus coach Massimiliano Allegri, who told the highly decorated defender last season that he did not feature in his plans for 2023-24.Bonucci made more than 500 appearances for Juventus and had a year left on his contract there, but he was excluded from preseason training and has been forced to look elsewhere to maintain his hope of captaining Italy at next year’s European Championship in Germany.Union is making its Champions League debut this season after its surprise fourth-place finish from its fourth year in the Bundesliga.

TEMPE, Ariz. (AP) — Jaden Rashada threw for 236 yards and two touchdowns, and Arizona State withstood a more than two-hour weather delay to beat Southern Utah 24-21 early Friday in coach Kenny Dillingham’s coaching debut.The Sun Devils (1-0) were in control in the first half, taking a 21-7 lead on Rashada’s 3-yard touchdown pass to Troy Omeire through a dust storm.Thunderstorms followed the dust and the game was delayed, steady rain still falling when play resumed.With a few hundred fans remaining in the stands, the Sun Devils got stuck in the mud against an FCS opponent.Southern Utah had a 68-yard reception negated by a targeting penalty early in the third quarter, but Justin Miller later hit Isaiah Wooden on a 52-yard reception. Miller then found a wide-open Zach Mitchell for a 17-yard TD that pulled the Thunderbirds within 21-14.Arizona State’s offense stagnating Elijah Badger’s 81-yard kickoff return gave the Sun Devils a first-and-goal from the 6 late in...Reds take on the Cubs after Encarnacion-Strand’s 4-hit game
