It's not clear whether the feature will be limited to the new iPhone, or will come to everyone with iOS 11 Apple's new iPhone will feature a smartcamera that can tell what it's looking at, according to leaked code. Details found in files that were accidentally uploaded to the internet by Apple suggest that it is working on a feature that will be able to tell what is in a scene and adjust the settings to take the best possible image. The code includes references to "scenes", which include Fireworks, Foliage, Pet, BrightStage, Sport, Sky, Snow, and Sunset/Sunrise. It's presumed that the "smartcam" will be able to detect those things using artificial intelligence, and the alter things like the exposure and shutter speed accordingly. Some cameras, like those made by Canon, include different settings for things like sport. But they require their owners to choose what sort of thing they are taking a picture of – something the "smart" i

Uefa will demand to know how Paris Saint-Germain intend to finance their world-record £198 million transfer deal for Barcelona’s Brazilian superstar Neymar, with European football’s governing body reiterating its stance that financial fair play rules will be enforced. On a dramatic day, Barcelona announced on Wednesday that Neymar, 25, had told them of his intention to leave and that in response had said he could only do so on payment of the £198 million (€222m) buy-out clause included in the new contract he signed last year. It is anticipated that the Qatari-owned PSG will pay it in full although the structure of the deal, expected to be €450m in total, will have to pass Uefa’s financial fair play (FFP) rules. Neymar is expected to earn around €55m a year before tax meaning that the total deal, spread over the course of a five-year contract, could cost €90m annually - almost a quarter of PSG’s current annual revenue of €389.6m. In a statement to  Telegraph Sport , Uefa re

Napoli comfortably beat German Champions Bayern Munch at the Allianz on Wednesday. Goals from Kalidou Koulibaly and Emanuele Giaccherini secured the win for the Italians. After losing out to Liverpool in the Audi Cup opener on Tuesday, Bayern Munich had the chance to make amends against Napoli in Wednesday's early kick-off at the Allianz Arena. The first shot on goal came from Kingsley Coman, who found a pocket of space inside the Napoli area but his strike was comfortable for goalakeeper Luigi Sepe. Bayern Munich looked lively in the opening 10 minutes with more chances coming for Joshua Kimmich and Arturo Vidal. Napoli's first opening came through José Callejón. The former Real madrid man was released past the napoli defence by a neat flick, but 17-year-old Bayern Munich goalkeeper Christian Früchtl was quick off his line to make the save. The Italian side took the lead after 16 minutes. After a Napoli free-kick was delivered dangerously into the Bayern box, the bal

Barcelona made an official announcement stating that the Brazilian superstar's definitive departure. Barcelona have made an official announcement informing of Neymar's decision to leave the Catalan club. 'The player Neymar Jr, accompanied by his father and agent, has informed FC Barcelona this morning of his decision to leave the Club in a meeting held at the Club’s offices', the statement read. The club have referred to the winger's £196 million release clause, which will have to be paid in its entirety if Neymar is to join PSG. 'Faced with this position, the Club has informed them they refer to the buy-out clause of his existing contract which as of 1 July totals 222 million euros which will have to be deposited in its entirety'. 'Furthermore, in reply to the claim for the contract extension bonus, the Club has once again made it clear that the amount remains deposited with a notary until the case is resolved', the club said, refer

Barcelona are trying everything to sign Philippe Coutinho, but Klopp has no intention of selling the Brazilian. The bosses at Liverpool remain firm in their bid to retain Coutinho. The Brazilian playmaker is a key man and the Reds will not succumb to Barcelona's advances. As reported by the Liverpool Echo, the Premier League outfit have turned down the possibility of including Andre Gomes and Rafinha in the operation. While the Catalans believe they can close the 25-year-old's signing, Klopp is not interested in the Barca men and intends to see him at Anfield for the seasons to come.

The movements related to the Brazilian's transfer begin to pick up pace, and two dates have already been set to officially announce his PSG move. As reported by 'Mundo Deportivo', the Brazilian's unveiling would take place on Friday, August 4. That is the wish of Al-Khelaifi and his board. However, 'L'Equipe' believe it is another date. A few days ago, the French outlet announced that the move would be completed by Monday, August 7, and that the Parisians had plans for a parade once it is made official. The French publication also underlined that the Brazilian striker is 'closer every day to Paris Saint-Germain', as he will leave Barcelona once the £196m release clause is paid. After  Neymar was excused from training  in order to join the Ligue 1 outfit, it seems Barcelona have little chance of retaining the 25-year-old.

Manchester United announced the £40m capture of Nemanja Matic from Chelsea on Monday. It’s the Red Devils’ third signing of the summer following the arrivals of Romelu Lukaku and Victor Lindelof. Jose Mourinho had identified four targets at the start of the summer but says he’s ‘willing’ to accept three because of the difficulty of the transfer market. The 54-year-old wanted his signings in place before pre-season and, though Matic doesn’t excite fans in the way perhaps Lukaku does, his arrival could be crucial at Old Trafford this term. Here’s three ways the Red Devils could line up with Matic at the club. 4-3-3 with Pogba pushed forward United spent a world record £89m on Paul Pogba and, while he may have impressed in periods last term, the Frenchman needs to kick on this term. The former Juventus man started the season in a midfield two with Marouane Fellaini but was then pushed forward in a midfield three alongside Ander Herrera and Michael Carrick. Pogba was
