@exitzoostation Okay. This has been going on with different reports. It never made sense to me that JM wanted both Tchoumeni and camavinga sold with no proper replacements. Not his style.
🚨 BREAKING: Celeste Amarilla has demanded a public apology from Kylian Mbappé, warning that she may pursue LEGAL ACTION for alleged GENDER-BASED VIOLENCE if he does not retract his remarks.
She wrote:
“Who are you to call me unworthy or despicable if you don’t even know me? This is pure and simple gender violence.
Political violence against a woman who earned her position through the popular vote of her people.
You, of all people, are disparaging women. I never attacked your skin color or your personal preferences. Don’t attack my status as a woman and a politician.
Retract your statement, honor your French citizenship, and apologize to me. Otherwise, I may initiate LEGAL ACTION for GENDER-BASED VIOLENCE.”
🚨⚠️ FIFA president Gianni Infatino clarifies his position on Folarin Balogun red card.
“I have seen the public comments regarding the decision of the independent FIFA Disciplinary Committee related to the suspension of Folarin Balogun, and I would like to reiterate a fundamental principle of FIFA’s governance.
“FIFA’s judicial bodies are independent. They operate autonomously, apply the FIFA Disciplinary Code, and decide cases based on the applicable regulations and the specific facts before them. Their independence is essential to the credibility and integrity of football, and this must always be respected.
“Yes, I regularly discuss matters related to the FIFA World Cup with the President of the United States, and on this matter, I did receive a call from President Donald Trump, just as I receive calls from heads of state, government officials, football stakeholders and business executives from around the world on many different issues. During our conversation, I explained that there was an ongoing legal process involving FIFA’s independent judicial bodies and that the case would be decided in due course by the competent bodies. That is how FIFA’s system works, and it is a principle that I will always uphold.
“I read the decisions of the FIFA Disciplinary Committee when they are issued. Sometimes I am surprised by them. Sometimes I agree with them, and sometimes I disagree.
“What I always do, however, is respect those decisions and the autonomy of the bodies that make them. Whether we personally like a decision or not is irrelevant. Respect for independent institutions and the rule of law is what protects the integrity of our competitions and the credibility of FIFA at all times.”
🚨 𝗢𝗙𝗙𝗜𝗖𝗜𝗔𝗟: Statement from UEFA on FIFA overturning Folarin Balogun's one-match suspension:
"Yesterday's decision to suspend for a probationary period of a year the
implementation of the one-match automatic suspension following the red card issued to the player Folarin Balogun crossed a red line."
"Football, like any other sports, relies on rules, which are the basis for fair, honest and transparent competition. Sometimes rules are open to interpretation. In this case not."
"A minimum automatic suspension of one match following a red card is not a discretionary option and does not require the decision of a competent body to be enacted. It is a principle embedded in regulations, which cannot be made subject to exceptions, let alone in the middle of a tournament where several other players have been in the same situation and regularly served their suspension."
"When the certainty of rules is no longer guaranteed by its guardians, the integrity of the game is at stake and the credibility of a competition is undermined. Equally, such decision creates a precedent in the ongoing tournament, where similar situations will now require an equal treatment, to the detriment of the competition."
"Football is the most loved sport in the world because it is a beautiful game and is trusted because it is played everywhere with the same laws. A tournament is never a pure standalone and, if the tournament in question is the World Cup, it has the power to drive positive or negative consequences on the game as a whole."
"We express our disbelief at such an unprecedented, incomprehensible and unjustifiable decision."
🚨🇩🇪 Jürgen Klopp would be open to considering return to management if German Federation decide to call him.
Nagelsmann wants to stay but final decision in DFB hands, Klopp would be open to listening and keen on project.
