HUDDERSFIELD, England -- American coach David Wagner has rejected interest from Bundesliga clubs to stay at Huddersfield Town and try to lead the club into the English Premier League.Halfway through the second-tier League Championship season, Huddersfield is among the four playoff places, just below the two automatic promotion spots.The 45-year-old Wagner, a former U.S. international, arrived at the northern English club in 2015 from Borussia Dortmund where he was reserve team coach.Now the German-born Wagner is attracting interest from Germanys topflight for jobs, with reports linking with a role at Wolfsburg.It is correct that there has been interest from a few Bundesliga clubs, Wagner said. They have obviously seen the way we are going at Huddersfield Town and the journey we have been on together over the last 12 months.Its important for me to clarify that my focus is on moving forward at Huddersfield Town. We want to develop what has been a good season so far into a great one, with the staff, players and fans together as one.Huddersfield is a three-time English champion but those successes all came between 1924 and 1926. By holding on to a coach who is delivering results, Huddersfield hopes to return to the top-flight.Huddersfield Town may not be a Bundesliga club or one that plays in European competition, but make no mistake -- we are a serious, proud, ambitious club with a rich history, Huddersfield chairman Dean Hoyle said.I think Davids ongoing commitment to Huddersfield Town is testament to this club and its standing. Hes turned down several advances from Bundesliga clubs during his time here, the latest coming very, very recently.Wagner, who worked under good friend and former Mainz teammate Juergen Klopp during his time at Dortmund, steered Huddersfield to safety in the Championship last season.The day will come when David moves on, as is the case with every manager or head coach at every club in world football, Hoyle said. However, that day is not upon us. Darius Slay Jr Lions Jersey . JOHNS, N. Jarrad Davis Jersey . "I dont know that were close," said general manager Alex Anthopoulos. "I just think, right now, the acquisition cost just doesnt work for us right now. I dont know if I can quantify how far off or things like that that they might be but I would say we continue to have dialogue. http://www.lionsfanspro.com/Black-Will-Harris-Lions-Jersey.html?cat=972 .

RIO DE JANEIRO -- For some at the Rio Games, theres gold, silver and bronze.Or perhaps theres Golduck, Shellder and Bulbasaur.Pokemon Go -- which has been available in some parts of the world, including the United States, for about a month -- has just now arrived in the Olympic host city of Rio de Janeiro. Available this week in Brazil for the first time, not coincidentally on the eve of the Rio Olympics, the game involves players using their smartphones to track down the virtual creatures.Ive never run this much in my life, said Gabriela Alves, a Rio native who had her phone out and was collecting Pokeballs -- a key component to the game -- in downtown Rio on Thursday. Is this what Olympians feel like?Well, maybe its what some of them feel like.It was a cause of some lament among Olympians who arrived in Rio to find that Pokemon Go wasnt there to greet them. U.S. diver and 2012 silver medalist Abby Johnston tweeted that the worst thing about the Olympic village was how she couldnt find a way to play the game there. A few days later, that issue is solved.Some members of Germanys field hockey team said they caught a special Pokemon character in the athletes village, though it turned out that they were only posing for a photo with world No. 1 tennis player and fellow Olympian Novak Djokovic. And star mens Olympic gymnast Kohei Uchimura of Japan told media from his country that he racked up a $5,000 phone bill using so much data trying to play the game leading up to the Games.Its one of those things that pulls out the child in you, New Zealand rower and 2012 gold medalist Eric Murray said, revealing that hes an avid Pokemon Go fan. It was prettty cool because you go around and catch Pokemon, which is what they did in the cartoon, and its fun.ddddddddddddThe smattering of people inside the Olympic Park on Thursday could find some Pokestops (where you collect Pokeballs and other items) and Pokegyms (where players, after joining a team, can compete against others). When the Olympic action starts in earnest on Friday, it seems like a certainty that Pokemon Go will be part of the spectacle.But in parts of Rio, its already a very big deal.Pokemon! I started to play Pokemon yesterday, said Ronaldo Banto, who works in a Rio hotel and spent his free time Thursday morning running around with his phone playing the game. Now Im trying to find some Pokemons here. Im loving it.Banto was drawn to a park, given that the app was telling him activity could be found there. He met up with a few other people who were already there, and the group -- most of whom had never met previously -- spent a few minutes together reviewing notes and talking about the game.For others, its a new way to pass the time before seeing the Olympics.My kids downloaded it on my phone because they left theirs on the plane, so I guess I better learn now, said Michelle Birney of Los Angeles. Birney brought her two daughters to Rio for the Olympics to see soccer matches and family members.While she spoke, her two girls ran a cobblestone square, looking down at their phones and almost colliding with a man playing the same game.If Pokemon ever gets in the Olympics, maybe they have a shot, Birney said.
