كشفت تقارير صحفية إسبانية رد فعل نادي ريال مدريد تجاه التصريحات النارية التي أدلى بها نجم فريق برشلونة، لامين يامال، في الساعات الأولى من صباح يوم الجمعة، ضد الملكي.
جاءت تصريحات لامين يامال قبل يومين من مباراة الكلاسيكو بين فريقي ريال مدريد وبرشلونة على ملعب “سانتياجو برنابيو”، الأحد المقبل، في الجولة العاشرة من الدوري الإسباني.

وسخر لامين يامال من ريال مدريد حيث اتهمهم بكونهم “يسرقون ويشتكون” على حد قوله (لمطالعة التفاصيل كاملة من هنا).
وذكرت صحيفة “موندو ديبورتيفو” الإسبانية أن تصريحات لامين يامال لم تمر بشكل جيد على ريال مدريد، حيث تعتبر مثل تلك التصريحات سخيفة في العادة وتنعكس سلبًا على صاحبها.
وأوضحت أن ريال مدريد يعتزم التحدث مع لاعب برشلونة، لامين يامال، في هذا الصدد، حيث سيجري القائد داني كارفاخال تلك المحادثة مع مواطنه عقب انتهاء مباراة الكلاسيكو المرتقبة.
وأشارت إلى أنه بغض النظر عن كون ما قاله لامين يامال يُعد غبيًا، فإن ريال مدريد يعتبر كلماته تفتقد للاحترام، سواء كان يشير إليهم أو أي نادِ آخر من الدرجة الأولى.
وأفادت بأنه بخلاف ذلك، فإن ريال مدريد يدرك أن تصريحات لامين يامال تهدد التناغم الكبير داخل المنخب الإسباني، حيث ستبقى أن نرى ما إذا كان ذلك الموقف سيؤثر على معسكر شهر نوفمبر، استعدادًا لمباراتي لا روخا الأخيرتين في تصفيات كأس العالم ضد جورجيا وتركيا.

One Manchester United coach has been impressing those inside Carrington and is thought to be heading towards the top level of management.
Romano shares update on Amorim’s Man Utd future
The Red Devils may soon have a big decision to make regarding Ruben Amorim’s position as first-team manager after another woeful start to the Premier League season.
Saturday’s 3-1 defeat away to Brentford has piled the pressure on the Portuguese boss, who is refusing to alter his tactics in search of improved results.
As a result, there have been a number of names that have emerged in recent days as potential replacements for Amorim.
Sir Gareth Southgate has been in direct contact with Sir Jim Ratcliffe over a possible move to Old Trafford, whereas former Barcelona boss Xavi Hernandez is another mooted target and thought to be among the favourites.
Crystal Palace manager Oliver Glasner would also be open to the idea of taking over from Amorim, whereas former Old Trafford coach Kieran McKenna is another manager admired by the Red Devils.
He'd revive Mainoo at Man Utd: INEOS eyeing "incredible" Amorim replacement
Manchester United are considering a move to land a manager who could get Kobbie Mainoo firing at Old Trafford.
1 ByEthan Lamb Sep 30, 2025
Fabrizio Romano recently shared a latest update on Amorim’s Man Utd future, admitting his job is not safe as things stand.
Should a short-term caretaker manager be required in the near future, similar to how Man Utd have operated in the past, then the club may look to a former midfielder.
Darren Fletcher impressing at Carrington as Man Utd U18 manager
At Under 18 level, Man Utd have ex-star Darren Fletcher in charge, and he has been catching the eye at Carrington.
After taking over in the summer, Fletcher, 41, has seen his side win five of their six U18 Premier League games, sitting joint top alongside Manchester City. The Red Devils U18s did fall to their first defeat of the campaign last time out, though, losing to City.
The Daily Mail revealed that Fletcher actually had surgery on a knee injury which he picked up in the recent Man Utd Legends match away to Celtic but returned to work just one day later.
They claim that ‘many observers of United’s academy sides have been blown away by Fletcher’s work ethic’ and that ‘it was simply the latest indication he is destined for the top level of management’.
Fletcher’s twin sons, Jack and Tyler, have followed in his footsteps by signing their first professional contracts at Man Utd in 2024, so who knows, we may see the trio in some capacity at first-team level in the coming years.
فجرت صحيفة سبورت الإسبانية اليوم الأربعاء مفاجأة كبيرة بشأن مصير فينيسيوس جونيور مع نادي ريال مدريد، حيث يمر اللاعب بفترة صعبة على الرغم من الفوز على برشلونة في الكلاسيكو بالدوري الإسباني.
فينيسيوس قدم مباراة رائعة ونجح في مساعدة ريال مدريد في تحقيق الفوز على برشلونة بهدفين مقابل هدف واحد يوم الأحد الماضي ، ضمن قمة الجولة العاشرة من بطولة الدوري الإسباني للدرجة الأولى.
لكن فينيسيوس أثار الجدل، بعدما دخل في خلاف مع مدرب نادي ريال مدريد، تشابي ألونسو، بسبب استبدال اللاعب خلال الشوط الثاني من مواجهة برشلونة ونزول رودريجو بدلًا منه.
ولم يقم فينيسيوس بمصافحة ألونسو وخرج غاضبًا، حيث التقطت عدسات الكاميرا اللاعب وهو معترض بشدة على تبديله.
وذكرت الصحيفة، أن فينيسيوس يفكر وبشكل جدي في الرحيل عن صفوف نادي ريال مدريد خلال صيف العام المقبل، بسبب ألونسو في المقام الأول.

وأضاف المصدر، أن فينيسيوس قد سأم من معاملة ألونسو له وباعتباره ليس النجم الأول في ريال مدريد بالوقت الحالي، وذلك مع تألق كيليان مبابي الكبير.
وأوضح المصدر، أن العلاقة بين فينيسيوس جونيور وألونسو قد تم تدميرها، حيث لا يريد اللاعب الاستمرار مع ريال مدريد طالما كان المدرب الباسكي هو من يدير الميرنجي.
وأردف المصدر، أن فينيسيوس سيريد الرحيل الصيف المقبل، وتبرز عدة وجهات أمامه من بينها الدوري الإنجليزي، لكن ابن الـ25 عامًا يفضل الانتقال إلى باريس سان جيرمان.
وأوضحت سبورت، أن أكثر ما يعجب فينيسيوس في باريس سان جيرمان هو مشروع النادي وكذلك المدرب لويس إنريكي، الذي يجيد التعامل بشكل تام مع النجوم وقد تلقى الإشادة من قبل نيمار وليونيل ميسي كذلك.
Vice-captain brushes off speculation about his place in the side and Jacob Bethell’s return
Vithushan Ehantharajah25-May-20251:10
Stokes on Bashir: ‘Impossible for him to not get even better’
“I’m in the media talking about the media,” said Ollie Pope, rolling his eyes as he broke the fourth wall on the outfield at Trent Bridge, not long after England’s victory over Zimbabwe.The first Test of the summer had a bit of the ouroboros about it, and not because Shoaib Bashir made light work of the tourist’s tail on Saturday to confirm a simple innings victory inside three days.Ben Stokes’ pre-match quotes when asked about the reintroduction of Jacob Bethell after his IPL stint seemed to suggest Pope – and, by association, Zak Crawley – might be at risk when it came to turning 12 into an XI. Stokes bristled at the subsequent coverage, believing he had made it clear he meant Bethell’s return to the was a no-brainer, and went a step further in his post-match briefings, suggesting the misunderstanding was wilful as part of an agenda against Pope.Related

Pressure on Pope and Crawley with Bethell in line for role against India
In between, Stokes also spoke to Pope about those circulating comments, though the man himself did the best job of quelling any awkwardness by strumming a breezy 171 to all but cement his usual spot at No. 3 for next month’s India series, having selflessly vacated the position in New Zealand to take the wicketkeeping gloves, allowing Bethell to state such a compelling case.”Whenever I do media now I get asked if I’m reading what’s in the media,” Pope said. “So I try not to read what’s in the media and focus on scoring my runs.”[I’m] just trying to ignore it and try to become a better player. Whenever I’ve stood still, that’s when I’ve not become a better player. It’s trying to block it out, trying not to let it affect me in the Test match week. Every time I go into a series, trying to make sure I’m a better player than I was before, and hopefully cash in when it counts.”It’s all noise to us, we have a tight-knit unit, we will keep chatting amongst ourselves.”He even grasped the nettle on Bethell’s return, with something of a smile: “It’ll be good to have him back in the squad and the selectors can make their decision, and I will try to score my runs.”Ollie Pope notched his eighth Test hundred•Getty Images
That bolshiness is nothing new, particularly given how much of Pope’s career recently has been underpinned by external uncertainty as to what his best role may be, and even whether he is in England’s strongest team outright.Right now, the answer to both those questions seems to be No. 3 – where he averages 43.06 – and an unequivocal yes from Stokes. “He’s my vice-captain, and he’s been incredible for me at number three and the team,” Stokes said.Nevertheless, Pope acknowledges the variety of roles undertaken means much of his work behind the scenes has been geared towards being more adaptable. In the last year alone, he has batted at first drop, at No. 6 with the gloves and even captained four Tests.”I’ve been trying to work on my all-round game and everything that will make me successful in Test cricket,” Pope said, accepting his future may well be as a high-calibre utility pick. “I’ve done a lot of different roles. I’ve kept, I’ve captained, batted six, batted three. It’s focusing on my main job at No. 3 and making sure my game is in as good an order as it can be.”That immediate focus will come to the fore against India at Headingley on June 20, the first of 10 huge, legacy-defining Tests, finishing off with the Ashes in Australia. Barring a stunning 196 in Hyderabad at the start of 2024, Pope has a poor record against both of England’s biggest rivals. His average against India, against whom he debuted in 2018, is a lowly 24.60, but almost 10 runs higher than his 15.70 against Australia. He accepts the next engagements are as much a defining period for himself as the team.”Yeah absolutely,” he said, when asked if he had something to prove over the next two series. “But I also feel I am a much better player now than I was [four years ago] when we last played India at home and Australia away.”I completely own that my numbers aren’t good enough against those guys, and I accept that. But I think I am a better player to deal with the competition ahead this summer. Hopefully over the next year I can prove that. I did that a little bit in India last year, but look forward to doing it this summer and winter.”

In stark contrast to the last international break, there is a genuine feel-good atmosphere around Arsenal at the moment.
Instead of going into the long break off the back of a devastating loss at Anfield, the Gunners are sitting pretty at the top of the Premier League table thanks to a routine win over West Ham United and Chelsea scoring a last-minute winner to take all three points off Liverpool.
Moreover, there is now talk of the Emirates’ capacity being expanded in the not-too-distant future, and in yet more good news, David Raya is reportedly getting a pay rise to reflect his importance to the squad.
The Spaniard more than deserves his new terms, but he isn’t the only player in Mikel Arteta’s squad who should be getting a new contract.
Why Raya deserves a pay rise
Interestingly, while reports about Raya’s new payment terms mention the inclusion of an optional year in his contract, it is quite clear that this new deal does not actually increase the number of standard years the Spaniard has left at the club.
That might sound rather odd to some, and there is certainly an argument to be made that it is, but there are a few reasons why this pay rise more than makes sense.
Firstly, unlike when the former Brentford ace was first signed and there was an element of doubt over who would be the club’s starting goalkeeper between him and Aaron Ramsdale, he is now clearly one of the first names on the team sheet.
Therefore, it’s only right that his wage reflects his true importance to the squad. At the £100k-per-week he was earning before these new terms, he was making less than 14 other players, including Mikel Merino, Gabriel Martinelli, and Noni Madueke.
Second, in addition to starting most games for the side, the 30-year-old is undoubtedly one of the very best in his position in the Premier League, if not Europe.
For example, he’s won the league’s Golden Glove award in both of the last two seasons, and according to FBref, he sits in the top 4% of keepers in Europe’s top five leagues for percentage of crosses stopped, the top 7% for clean sheets, the top 8% for save percentage and more, all per 90.
Finally, from a purely social perspective, it keeps him happy and shows the other players that consistent results will be rewarded, which in turn helps foster a better atmosphere.

With all that said, there is another player in the squad who deserves the same treatment.
The Arsenal star who deserves a raise like Raya
The good thing for Arteta and Arsenal is that, following the slew of new deals agreed in the summer, there aren’t many players who’d be able to claim they’re currently underpaid in the squad.
Chalkboard
Football FanCast’s Chalkboard series presents a tactical discussion from around the global game.
However, there is one international who could make that argument, someone who at the very least deserves a raise, if not a new deal: Jurrien Timber.
Yes, the former Ajax gem, who joined the club for around £38m in the summer of 2023, is the player perhaps most deserving of new terms at the moment, and based on reports this month, it does seem like he may soon get them.
Being a right-back, and one that doesn’t tend to bomb forward as much as a Trent Alexander-Arnold or Jermaine Frimpong, means the Dutchman doesn’t always get the recognition he deserves from the wider footballing community.
But since recovering from his ACL injury, which ruled him out for pretty much the entirety of the 23/24 season, the 24-year-old has been incredible, and this season his performances are making him harder and harder to overlook.
Like Declan Rice in midfield and Bukayo Saka on the wing, the monstrous defender very rarely, if ever, puts in a less than a 7/10 performance and more often than not does better than that.
In the words of Arsenal podcaster Adam Keys, he’s like a “dementor for wingers” thanks to his brilliant anticipation, footballing IQ and surprising physicality. Yet, especially this season, he has also been improving his attacking play, with the performance against Newcastle United arguably his best offensive display since joining the club.
Unsurprisingly, the Utrecht-born titan’s underlying numbers from this season more than back up the eye-test and prove that he’s hitting a level few other full-backs can.
According to FBref, he sits in the top 2% of full-backs in the Premier League for actual and expected non-penalty goals, shot-creating actions, progressive passes and tackles, the top 7% for total shots and pass completion, the top 11% for touches in the opposition’s penalty area and more, all per 90.

Ultimately, considering all factors, it’s hard to disagree with respected analyst Ben Mattinson’s claim that Timber is “one of the best Emirates-era signings.”
Therefore, like Raya, he should be getting a pay rise as soon as possible, or better yet, a new contract altogether.

He is their pre-draft signing, and will join Steven Smith in the Sixers squad

Babar Azam is yet to feature in the BBL•PSL
Sydney Sixers have brought in Pakistan’s star batter Babar Azam as a pre-draft signing for the upcoming BBL season. Babar will join Steven Smith in the Sixers side after he was roped in as their international recruit ahead of the overseas draft, which is scheduled for June 19.As per the league rules, each BBL side can sign one international recruit before the draft. Until now, Sixers were the only side who had not brought on board a pre-signed overseas player. Apart from Babar and Smith, the Sixers squad now includes Sean Abbott, Joel Davies, Ben Dwarshuis, Jack Edwards, Moises Henriques, Todd Murphy, Mitch Perry, Josh Philippe and Jordan Silk.”It’s an exciting opportunity to play in one of the world’s best T20 leagues and to be a part of such a successful and respected franchise,” Babar said in a Sixers release. “I’m looking forward to contributing to the team’s success, building a strong connection with the fans, and sharing this experience with my friends, family and supporters at home in Pakistan.”Related

Among Pakistani names, Shaheen Afridi, Shadab Khan, Haris Rauf and Mohammad Rizwan are also set to feature in the next BBL, although they all will be part of the overseas draft next week.Babar has a wealth of T20 experience to his name, having played 320 matches so far, most recently in the PSL where he led Peshawar Zalmi. Even though his side finished second from bottom, Babar was the leading scorer for Zalmi with a tally of 288 runs from 10 innings, while striking at 128.57.Babar has, however, gone out of favour in Pakistan’s national T20 side, having been dropped earlier this year. Across the world, he has played in several T20 leagues, including the CPL, BPL, LPL and the Vitality Blast in England.”Babar’s resume speaks for itself,” Sixers general manager Rachael Haynes said. “The skill, professionalism, and experience that he brings is of enormous value to our playing group and the news is obviously incredibly exciting for our fans.”He is a world-class player and a proven leader. He’s not only a huge addition to our club, but to the league as a whole. The Sixers strive to be a destination club on the global stage – from playing at the iconic SCG to delivering world-class match day experiences and signing the top talent from around the world – and securing a player of Babar’s calibre only further strengthens that vision.”
O técnico Diego Aguirre deixou o Santos com o pior aproveitamento de um treinador do clube no século XXI. Com apenas uma vitória sob o comando do Peixe, o uruguaio possui somente 20% de rendimento com a equipe.
Além dessa marca, neste mesmo período, o comandante registra o menor tempo no comando do Alvinegro Praiano entre todos os treinadores, com apenas cinco partidas realizadas.

No campo, o desempenho se mostrou alarmante no curto espaço de tempo que o técnico teve para trabalhar. Em cinco compromissos, o time do litoral paulista levou 12 gols, estufou as redes apenas duas vezes e permaneceu na zona de rebaixamento do Brasileirão.

Além do rendimento de Aguirre ser o pior do Santos, outros treinadores adquiridos pelo presidente Andres Rueda figuram entre as posições mais baixas.

تحدث الدولي الأوروجواني فيديريكو فالفيردي، لاعب خط وسط الفريق الأول لكرة القدم بنادي ريال مدريد عن خسارة الفريق أمام ليفربول ضمن منافسات دوري أبطال أوروبا.
وواجه ريال مدريد نظيره ليفربول مساء أمس، الثلاثاء، في الجولة الرابعة من مرحلة الدوري لبطولة دوري أبطال أوروبا، على ملعب “آنفيلد”.
واستطاع ليفربول أن يحقق فوزًا غاليًا على ريال مدريد بهدف نظيف سجله أليكسيس ماك أليستر بضربة رأس رائعة سكنت شباك الحارس كورتوا الذي ظهرر بمستوى مميز ورائع للغاية في المباراة.
وسُئل فالفيردي حول ما كان شعر ببعض الآلام في آخر المباراة، وأجاب قائلًا في تصريحات نقلتها صحيفة “آس”: “لا أعرف، لا أعرف إن كان ألمًا عضليًا أو حركة خطأ قمت بها، لا أعرف لكن سنرى”.
وأكمل: “شعوري بعد هذه الهزيمة؟ جئنا إلى هنا لنحاول الفوز بالطبع، لكننا نعلم أن الملعب صعب، وأنهم يضغطون علينا بشدة، أتيحت لنا فرص لكننا أهدرنا ثلاث نقاط بسبب ركلة ثابتة والتي علينا الدفاع بشكل أفضل فيها الفترة المقبلة”.

وأضاف: “عانينا كثيرًا من الكرات الثابتة، كانت سلسلة من ثلاث أو أربع كرات ثابتة حيث كانوا دائمًا يُسددون، كنا نعلم أنهم أقوياء جدًا في هذه النقطة لكننا بحاجة إلى أن نكون أقوى، علينا أن ندافع بشكل أفضل بشجاعة ورغبة أكبر وألا نستقبل أي هدف”.
وعن افتقار الفريق لشيء ما، أوضح: “سيطرنا على الشوط الأول، سنحت لهم بعض الفرص وكذلك نحن، كنا مرتاحين نمرر الكرة من جانب إلى آخر، ربما كنا بحاجة إلى التقدم نحو منطقة الجزاء أكثر عند الهجوم، كنا متأخرين في منطقة الدفاع بعض الشيء بسبب هجماتهم المرتدة لكن ما حدث حدث، سنواصل التحسن”.
وأردف: “كنا نرغب بالفوز، من الجميل دائمًا أن نحققه هنا كما فعلنا في وقت سابق، إنه أمر فريد لكننا خسرنا اليوم، شكرًا لمن ساهم في هذا الطقس المتواجد في آنفيلد، سنواصل النمو والتطور”.
وأتم فالفيردي: “إنها ضربة موجعة لأننا كنا نسير في اتجاه جيد لكن المهم هو أن نكون أقوياء ونسير للأمام كما فعلنا بعد هزيمة أتلتيكو مدريد”.
