RIO DE JANEIRO Andre Iguodala Jersey , Dec. 27 (Xinhua) -- Former Uruguay international striker Sebastian "Loco" Abreu has set a world record by signing for his 26th professional club.
The 41-year-old said on Twitter that he agreed to a 12-month contract with Santiago outfit Audax Italiano after parting ways with their Chilean rivals Puerto Montt.
He surpasses retired German goalkeeper Lutz Pfannenstiel, who remains the only player to have represented clubs in six continents.
Since starting his career with Uruguay's Defensor in 1995, Abreu has had spells with clubs in Argentina, Spain, Brazil, Mexico, Argentina, Israel, Paraguay and El Salvador.
In 2017 he scored 11 goals in just 13 league appearances for Puerto Montt in Chile's second division.
The former Deportivo de La Coruna forward has been capped 70 times for Uruguay's national team, scoring 20 goals.
SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 5 (Xinhua) -- U.S. top tech company Apple Inc.'s offer to replace iPhone batteries at lower prices could cut sales by millions of units this year, Bloomberg reported Thursday.
The report quoted Barclays' analyst Mark Moskowitz as saying that Apple could lose 16 million iPhone upgrades in 2018, as more people would take the 29-U.S.-dollar battery offer and decide not to buy a new iPhone.
Last week, Apple apologized for slowing down the performance of old-version iPhones with older batteries, which has already drawn multiple lawsuits.
The unannounced move by Apple has aroused anger among some Apple customers, who regarded Apple's secret handling of iPhones with older batteries as a trick to force them to buy newer but more expensive Apple devices.
In response to consumer outrage, Apple said it will cut 50 dollars from the out-of-warranty iPhone battery replacement for the next year.

TIANJIN, Sept. 8 (Xinhua) -- Guo Ailun led Liaoning to their first men's basketball gold medal at the National Games after his team beat Xinjiang 78-61 here on Friday.
The guard finished with a match-high 22 points, nine rebounds and four assists. Guo stood out in the second half for Liaoning, who finished the first half with a lead of only one point, as he scored 14 of his 22 in the final period.
Liaoning suffered a sudden blow when the match started for just only 47 seconds. Their center Zhou Qi, who will play for NBA's Houston Rockets next season, injured his right hand and had to walk off the court. Xinjiang seized this chance to open the match with a 9-2.
Zhou Qi returned to the match in the middle of the first quarter, which immediately changed Liaoning's situation. He first assisted Li Xiaoxu for an easy lay-up and then made in two free-throws. Guo Ailun also added two three-pointers, which helped Liaoning to cut Xinjiang's lead to three points by the end of the first period.
Kyranbek and Xiralijian Muhtar's three-pointers in the second quarter once enlarged Xinjiang's lead to seven. But then Liaoning answered with a 9-0 to take the lead back. Cong Mingchen scored all his five points in the second quarter for Liaoning, who ended the first half at 39-38.
Liaoning improved their defensive intensity from the first second of the second half, which limited Xinjiang to only 11 points in the third quarter. Han Dejun became the star for Liaoning in that period as the center took seven points.
The fourth quarter became Guo's show time. He scored 12 of Liaoning's first 17 points in that period, while Xinjiang only scored six points in the first five minutes. Trailing by 19 points with only four minutes to the end of the match, Xinjiang failed to turn the table but a silver medal is still their best result in the history of National Games.
Besides Guo's 22, Zhou Qi completed with a double-double of 11 points and 12 r.
