SOCCER: Manchester United’s jerseys will be sponsored by a technology company providing remote- access computer software after the Premier League club announced Friday that Teamviewer will replace Chevrolet. The five- year deal starting next season sees a less well- known brand replacing the car giant. It is expected to earn United more than $ 60 million a year — around a fifth less than the Chevrolet deal.

PRO FOOTBALL: Cody Parkey was steady and mostly straight kicking for the Browns last season. They’re going to see if he can do it again. Parkey agreed to re- sign for 2021 with Cleveland on Friday, returning to the team after beginning last season on the practice squad. The 29- yearold took over after the Browns released Austin Siebert following a missed field goal and extra point in the opener at Baltimore.

BOXING: Canelo Alvarez will return to AT& T Stadium for a world super middleweight unification fight May 8 against undefeated Billy Joe Saunders. Mexico’s Alvarez regularly fights on or near Cinco de Mayo, though the coronavirus pandemic prevented such a bout last year.
