How Can I Download An Image From A Website In Python

I want to be able to scrape the image from a website such as the example below where my intention would be to scrape the image of the player and store that in a temp file so that I could display it in a Tkinter window.

https://www.futbin.com/22/player/573/trent-alexander-arnold

I have come across multiple users using BeautifulSoup so any help regarding that would be greatly appreciated.

This is some sample code that I found and have slightly adapted:

from bs4 import *
import requests
import os
 
# CREATE FOLDER
def folder_create(images):
    try:
        folder_name = input("Enter Folder Name:- ")
        # folder creation
        os.mkdir(folder_name)
 
    # if folder exists with that name, ask another name
    except:
        print("Folder Exist with that name!")
        folder_create()
 
    # image downloading start
    download_images(images, folder_name)
 
 
# DOWNLOAD ALL IMAGES FROM THAT URL
def download_images(images, folder_name):
   
    # initial count is zero
    count = 0
 
    # print total images found in URL
    print(f"Total {len(images)} Image Found!")
 
    # checking if images is not zero
    if len(images) != 0:
        for i, image in enumerate(images):
            # From image tag ,Fetch image Source URL
 
                        # 1.data-srcset
                        # 2.data-src
                        # 3.data-fallback-src
                        # 4.src
 
            # Here we will use exception handling
 
            # first we will search for "data-srcset" in img tag
            try:
                # In image tag ,searching for "data-srcset"
                image_link = image["data-srcset"]
                 
            # then we will search for "data-src" in img
            # tag and so on..
            except:
                try:
                    # In image tag ,searching for "data-src"
                    image_link = image["data-src"]
                except:
                    try:
                        # In image tag ,searching for "data-fallback-src"
                        image_link = image["data-fallback-src"]
                    except:
                        try:
                            # In image tag ,searching for "src"
                            image_link = image["src"]
 
                        # if no Source URL found
                        except:
                            pass
 
            # After getting Image Source URL
            # We will try to get the content of image
            try:
                r = requests.get(image_link).content
                try:
 
                    # possibility of decode
                    r = str(r, 'utf-8')
 
                except UnicodeDecodeError:
 
                    # After checking above condition, Image Download start
                    with open(f"{folder_name}/images{i+1}.jpg", "wb+") as f:
                        f.write(r)
 
                    # counting number of image downloaded
                    count += 1
            except:
                pass
 
        # There might be possible, that all
        # images not download
        # if all images download
        if count == len(images):
            print("All Images Downloaded!")
             
        # if all images not download
        else:
            print(f"Total {count} Images Downloaded Out of {len(images)}")
 
# MAIN FUNCTION START
def main(url):
   
    # content of URL
    r = requests.get(url)
 
    # Parse HTML Code
    soup = BeautifulSoup(r.text, 'html.parser')
 
    # find all images in URL
    images = soup.findAll('img')

    folder_name = input("Enter Folder Name:- ")

    download_images(images, folder_name)
 
    # Call folder create function
    try:
        folder_create(images)
    except:
        x = 0
 
# take url
url = input("Enter URL:- ")
 
# CALL MAIN FUNCTION
main(url)

This code runs, however it does not seem to find the image file at all. I am also aware this scrapes all images. This code also works on other websites I have tested such as https://www.premierleague.com/players/4852/Adri%C3%A1n/overview

Where and how is this Laravel kernel constructor called? [closed]

Where and how is this Laravel kernel constructor called? public fucntion __construct(Application $app, $Router $roouter) { } I have read the documentation and some online tutorial but I can find any clear explanation. I am learning Laravel and I am wondering where does this kernel constructor receives its arguments from. "POSTMOTERM" CLARIFICATION: Here is more clarity.I have checked the boostrap/app.php and it is only used for boostrapping the interfaces into the container class. What is not clear to me is where and how the Kernel class is instatiated and the arguments passed to the object calling the constructor.Something similar to; obj = new kernel(arg1,arg2) or, is the framework using some magic functions somewhere? Special gratitude to those who burn their eyeballs and brain cells on this trivia before it goes into a full blown menopause alias "MARKED AS DUPLICATE". To some of the itchy-finger keyboard warriors, a.k.a The mods,because I believe in th...

Confusion between commands.Bot and discord.Client | Which one should I use?

Whenever you look at YouTube tutorials or code from this website there is a real variation. Some developers use client = discord.Client(intents=intents) while the others use bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="something", intents=intents) . Now I know slightly about the difference but I get errors from different places from my code when I use either of them and its confusing. Especially since there has a few changes over the years in discord.py it is hard to find the real difference. I tried sticking to discord.Client then I found that there are more features in commands.Bot . Then I found errors when using commands.Bot . An example of this is: When I try to use commands.Bot client = commands.Bot(command_prefix=">",intents=intents) async def load(): for filename in os.listdir("./Cogs"): if filename.endswith(".py"): client.load_extension(f"Cogs.{filename[:-3]}") The above doesnt giveany response from my Cogs ...
