👏🏻🇵🇹 Cristiano Ronaldo, warming up for his 234th international game representing Portugal.

979 career goals, 146 international goals.

[Fabrizio Romano @FabrizioRomano]

🚨🇵🇹 Cristiano Ronaldo: “If Portugal no longer want to rely on me, I can leave from today. I have no problem with that”.

“Or even the president. When they no longer want to rely on me in the national team, I’ll be the first to speak to them about it”.

“If they rely on me, I rely on them. And the Portuguese people rely on me. That’s why I continue playing for the national team”.

So much bitterness in journalism. Tavolieri thought he broke the news before Taecke.

If this is true…it has gone beyond the rules of the game. It has to stop the pitch belongs to the players. It’s no longer mind games it’s thuggery. The leadership of Orlando Pirates I doubt they approve of this nonsense. Unless it’s Ai 😳

Hazard moved to La Liga & flopped
Owen moved to La Liga & flopped
Di Maria moved to EPL & flopped
Coutinho moved to La Liga & flopped
Messi moved to Ligue 1 & flopped

Then there's Ronaldo who changed leagues & dominate. We don't respect Ronaldo enough.

We don't.

Drama surrounding player movements in the #BetwayPrem

How four individuals blocked free agent Mcedi Vandala's dream move to Amazulu FC

I want to put the record straight after receiving a lot of calls from football fans and friends on what happened to Mcedi Vandala's dream move to Amazulu FC and I took this platform because I don't want to be blamed when he retires from football by his family and football fans

Last season Sekhukhune representative Lux or Luxolo called Vandala to come and terminate his contract behind my back so Vandala called me and told me about the situation so I told him to play along after signing termination Magesi then offered him a one-year contract which expired on June 30 2026

When he was at Magesi he started playing regularly in the second round of the season and started scoring goals then Durban City, Chippa United and Amazulu FC called me and said they are interested in him but Amazulu offered us a very big salary and sign of fee that you only get from Kaizer Chiefs,Orlando Pirates and Sundowns so he then sign for Amazulu 3 year contract,when Sekhukhune heard that Vandala signed for Amazulu in later July 2026 then Lux told him to report for pre-season so the boys asked him to talk to me as his agent regarding the new contract and he refused but when I took Vandala there for the first time,we signed then Lux requested Vandala's clearance from me

I and the player waited for his call but never arrived so the boys went to Amazulu for Pre-season then one of Amazulu management sent Vandala's pictures and flight ticket details to Sekhukhune behind Amazulu's back then Sekhukhune lawyer Kabelo who is my best friend and I take him as my younger brother sent Amazulu an email saying that Vandala still has a contract with them which he was lying then Amazulu informed Vandala after training that they don't want to fight with other club he should stop training with the team and can only come back when he got his clearance and Amazulu offered Money even though the player was free but were turned down

Amazulu requested his clearance from Magesi but they refused and said they sent his clearance to Sekhukhune so then our lawyer took over and wrote to Magesi requesting his clearance but they refused and said they sent it to Sekhukhune

I even went to Kabelo's office to tell him what he is doing it's very wrong and it's a sin,he proudly said he worked his magic but what I was happy about is that Kabelo confessed and said yes he is free the club termination his contract but he is just doing his job

Our lawyer then wrote an email to PSL legal which is independent from PSL and also filled in the requested in PSL hand book just to follow all the processes but she was ignored by Ma'am Johanna for 15 days because the rules says it takes only 7 days to give Magesi a chance to send his clearance but 15 days passed Ma'am Johanna didn't help the boy

We then went to PSL with Vandala to meet with ma'am Johanna but she refused and said she is too busy after 2 minutes I received a call from Sekhukhune's lawyer Kabelo and he told me that he was told by Ma'am Johanna that we are in PSL to request a clearance and termination letter and also said we must leave because if we win the case in PSL he will appeal so the boy won't play soccer again so we then went outside PSL parking to discussing what Kabelo said then Sekhukhune representative Lux arrived in PSL and took picture of us on his way in side club's car from the gate that when I realised that we are fighting a losing battle and I told Vandala that the best way let me apologize to Amazulu so that we can go and sign for Sekhukhune that when we went and he signed three years

We made peace and I said to him forgive them they don't know what they're doing and I will pray for them

Turkish League is putting more money into players' pockets than before

[Parted Beard @PartedBeard]

Best paid players in the Turkish League (salary + bonuses). Note these are net (clubs absorb the tax).

The Turkish League are the new destination replacing Saudi League:
- offers much higher salaries than the European Big 5 Leagues
- playing in European competitions (CL, Europa League)
- passionate fans that love football in sold out stadiums
- better weather than Saudi’s sauna
- good food in open society
