@GE0RGINIO Carra was the epitome of this last season with Isak as well all it showcases is a fanbase who have never really signed WC talent before and in a weird way that spooks them

🚨 EXCL: Yan Diomande chooses Paris Saint-Germain as next destination if he departs RB Leipzig this summer. 19yo said to believe in #PSG project led by Al-Khelaifi / Campos / Enrique + wants chance to lift trophies regularly & win Balon D’Or @TheAthleticFC https://t.co/HYUUXtCSS8
The greatest I’ve ever seen play for England. And Ben Stokes has clearly got so much more to offer.
Crazy that he’s going, while McCullum and Key remain.
Good to see he has taken a fit squad
James - injured
Livarmento - out
Rice - playing injured
Anderson - injured
Saka - not fit
Stones - hardly played
🤣🤣
🚨 Elliot Anderson may miss #England v #Panama with muscle tightness. 23yo midfielder’s glute issue unrelated to Man City move. Reece James ruled out of final #2026FIFAWorldCup group game by hamstring tweak; doubt for R32 too but not serious @TheAthleticFC https://t.co/gNCvAd7FWW
91 year old legendary Argentinian journalist Macaya Márquez was in press conference, covering his 18th (!) World Cup 🐐
“Let me ask you… will Messi play against Jordan or not?” 😬
“I’d never reply to any journalist on this topic now… but it is coming from you, and so I tell you: Messi will not start” 👏🏼
“I respect you too much, I’m proud to see you here”, added.
Scaloni then went to hug Márquez and took a picture 🫂🥹
Two absolute legends. 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐚 𝐠𝐮𝐲. 👏🏼

Ruben Neves on Diogo Jota 💔
“I still talk to him. Few people know this. We have a WhatsApp group with Rute and Diogo, and it's still there, and we continue to talk there. Whenever something special happens, I have the conversations archived on my WhatsApp so I can continue to send him messages”
“It was very difficult. The day after the news, for me, is the most difficult day of my life. The most important aspect for me to be able to play was wanting to play for Diogo first”

🚨 Newcastle are considering a move for Borussia Dortmund midfielder Felix Nmecha.
🟡 Eddie Howe is a big fan of the German international, and came close to signing him in the summer of 2023 — but instead opted for Sandro Tonali.
💴 Nmecha has a €85m (£73.5m) buy-out in his Dortmund contract, that runs
til 2030.
🤨 Newcastle would be looking to pay less than that given their model, so unless Dortmund renegotiate the clause, it would be a difficult deal to do.
⚫️ The 25-year-old’s first Dortmund goal was a winner against Newcastle in The Champions League in 2023.

🚨🔵 Chelsea value Malo Gusto at £75m fee and not actively working to sell the French RB despite signing Marco Palestra.
Man City interest but no bids or club to club talks so far.
No club has had a bigger hand in the goals at the 2026 World Cup than Liverpool.
Their players have combined for 12 goal involvements so far (4 goals, 8 assists) - comfortably the most of any club in the world, with Bayern Munich and Real Madrid next best on 8.
