🚨🔵 Honest Ahanor to Chelsea… but first, Crystal Palace.

Chelsea have signed the 2008-born defender from Atalanta for €48m, but he’ll spend this season at Palace.

The twist? The loan will formally come from Atalanta, as Chelsea already loaned Axel Disasi to Palace this window.

🔵🔴 Barça’s possible XI vs Rayo Vallecano tonight.

Flick could stick with almost the same XI that beat Athletic, with Raphinha, Fermín, Lamine and Gordon leading the attack.

But with Olmo, Adeyemi, Christensen and Cancelo pushing for a start…

The competition for places is getting serious.

🔥 Cesc Fàbregas after Como’s win over Napoli:

“Almost heroes.”

And when Napoli started bringing players like Neres, De Bruyne, Alisson and Lucca off the bench, Fabregas joked that he thought they were making more than five substitutions.

What a win for Como.

📜 HISTORY.

In 2012, Messi broke Gerd Müller’s record of 85 goals in a calendar year with 91.

Leo then sent Müller a signed Barça shirt with a message of respect.

Years later, the jersey remains displayed at the @FCBayern Museum.

Some records are broken. Some legends are respected forever. 🤍
