College basketball transfer portal: Top 25 overall players

On3

The NCAA transfer portal officially opened at midnight on April 7 with thousands of college basketball players prepared to evaluate their futures. In the new offseason format, all players must submit an entry by April 21 to change programs.

As top prospects continue to commit to their new program, the updated list of available players and list of best committed players will continue to update. However, the list of top prospects will likely hold steady rather with only a handful of potential entries left to shake things up.

As college basketball’s top programs quickly move to evaluate the best players available and build a new-look roster, here is a look at the Top 25 players overall in the transfer portal. These rankings reflect the On3 Industry Rankings.

Newcastle United could bring early end to expensive flop’s Premier League career

3 May 2026 at 11:29

Nick Woltemade’s future at Newcastle United is suddenly becoming a talking point, with reports suggesting the German striker could leave the club just a year after arriving in England.

According to journalist Christian Falk, there is growing uncertainty surrounding the 24-year-old’s long-term place in the squad, despite Newcastle investing heavily to bring him to St James’ Park last summer.

DOWNLOAD THE OFFICIAL CAUGHTOFFSIDE APP FOR ALL THE LATEST & BREAKING UPDATES – STRAIGHT TO YOUR PHONE! ON APPLE & GOOGLE PLAY

The Magpies paid around £65 million to sign Woltemade from VfB Stuttgart, viewing him as a key piece in their attacking rebuild, particularly after the departure of Alexander Isak to Liverpool.

At the time, the transfer was seen as a bold move that signaled Newcastle’s ambition to remain competitive at the highest level.

However, football can change quickly, and recent developments suggest that the club may now be reassessing their options.

Woltemade started brightly but struggles followed

Woltemade’s time at Newcastle began with plenty of optimism. He made an immediate impression in the Premier League, scoring four goals in his first five appearances.

Want more CaughtOffside coverage? Add us as a preferred source on Google to your favourites list for news you can trust

His early form suggested Newcastle had found a reliable attacking option capable of adapting quickly to English football.

However, momentum has slowed significantly in recent months. The striker has struggled to maintain his scoring touch, particularly during the early stages of 2026, where he has yet to find the net in league competition.

That dip in form has raised questions about his confidence and role within the team, especially as Newcastle continue to push for consistency in front of goal.

Newcastle’s attacking system relies heavily on movement, pressing, and finishing efficiency, areas where Woltemade initially looked promising but has since found more challenging.

Could the Newcastle United star move to Bayern Munich?

The German giants were interested in signing Woltemade last summer before his move to Newcastle United.

It remains to be seen whether they will be interested in bringing him back to the Bundesliga if he becomes available for transfer.

Bayern are known for monitoring Bundesliga-developed talent, and their past interest suggests they recognise the striker’s potential despite his recent struggles in England.

If a substantial offer were to arrive, particularly from European clubs familiar with Woltemade’s earlier performances in Germany, Newcastle might consider evaluating the situation carefully.

Newcastle’s initial investment in Woltemade means they would likely seek to recover a significant portion of the transfer fee if he were to leave. That makes any potential move dependent on whether clubs are willing to match a high valuation.

FIDE reytinqi: Süleymanlıdan ciddi sıçrayış

1 May 2026 at 11:00

Beynəlxalq Şahmat Federasiyası (FIDE) qadın və kimi şahmatçıların 2026-cı il mayın 1-nə olan dünya reytinq siyahısını açıqlayıb.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, yenilənmiş siyahıda Azərbaycan qrossmeysteri Aydın Süleymanlı ciddi irəliləyişə imza atıb.

Belə ki, şahmatçımız 12 reytinq xalı qazanaraq ümumi göstəricisini 2665-ə çatdırıb və 15 pillə irəliləyərək dünya reytinqində 49-cu yerə yüksəlib. Bu nəticə onun karyerasında ən yüksək göstəricidir. Süleymanlının yüksəlişi Polşanın Katovitse şəhərində keçirilmiş şəxsi Avropa çempionatındakı uğurlu çıxışı ilə bağlıdır. O, həmin turnirdə məğlubiyyət yaşamadan bürünc medal qazanıb.

Azərbaycan şahmatçıları arasında liderliyini qoruyan Şəhriyar Məmmədyarov isə hesabat dövründə 2 xal artıraraq 2717 xalla 26-cı pillədə qərarlaşıb və bir mövqe irəliləyib.

Digər təmsilçilərimizdən Teymur Rəcəbov (2689 xal) 39-cu, Eltac Səfərli (2648 xal) 70-ci, Rauf Məmmədov (2636 xal) isə 90-cı sırada yer alıblar.

Diqqətçəkən məqamlardan biri isə odur ki, dünya reytinqinin ilk onluğunda ilk dəfə olaraq Özbəkistanın iki şahmatçısı – Nodirbek Abdusattorov və Cavaxir Sindarov yer alıb. Sindarov ötən ay İddiaçılar turnirinin qalibi olaraq dünya çempionu adı uğrunda hazırkı çempion, hindistanlı Dommaracu Qukeşlə qarşılaşmaq hüququ qazanıb. Qukeş hazırda 2732 xalla reytinqdə 18-ci pillədədir. Onların görüşünün noyabr-dekabr aylarında keçirilməsi planlaşdırılır.

Hazırda dünya reytinqinin ilk onluğu belədir: Maqnus Karlsen (Norveç, 2840), Hikaru Nakamura (ABŞ, 2792), Fabiano Karuana (ABŞ, 2788), Nodirbek Abdusattorov (Özbəkistan, 2780), Cavaxir Sindarov (Özbəkistan, 2776), Aniş Giri (Niderland, 2767), Vinsent Kaymer (Almaniya, 2759), Əlirza Firuzca (Fransa, 2759), Uesli So (ABŞ, 2754) və Vey İ (Çin, 2753).

Qadın şahmatçılar arasında isə Azərbaycan təmsilçiləri arasında liderliyini Ülviyyə Fətəliyeva qoruyur. O, 2450 xalla dünya reytinqində 26-cı pillədədir. Digər şahmatçılarımızdan Günay Məmmədzadə (2374 xal) 69-cu, Gövhər Beydullayeva (2368 xal) 72-ci, Xanım Balacayeva (2350 xal) isə 94-cü yerdə qərarlaşıb.

Qadınlarda çinli Hou Yifan (2596) reytinq cədvəlinə başçılıq edir.
