August 28, 2023 Roberto Mancini Named New Saudi Arabia Coach

Roberto Mancini Named New Saudi Arabia Coach

Two weeks after resigning as Italy’s manager, Roberto Mancini has been chosen the new manager of Saudi Arabia.

The 58-year-old guided Italy to Euro 2020 glory, defeating England on penalties in the final at Wembley Stadium.

The team set a world record with a 37-game unbeaten streak but did not qualify for the 2022 World Cup.

He agreed to a contract extension till 2027. His first match as manager will be against Costa Rica on September 8 at St James’ Park in Newcastle.

“I believe this is a fantastic opportunity for me to experience football in a new country, especially given football’s growing popularity in Asia,” Mancini stated.

“The presence of top players in Saudi Pro League indicates the potential for growth in the national football scene.”

Saudi Arabia stunned eventual champions Argentina in a 2-1 win in Qatar last year under former head coach Herve Renard, but failed to advance beyond the group stages.

Mancini has previously managed Fiorentina, Lazio, Inter Milan, Galatasaray, and Zenit St Petersburg in addition to Manchester City.

July 11, 2023 Pulisic Close To £20m Move From Chelsea To Inter Milan

Pulisic Close To £20m Move From Chelsea To Inter Milan

 

In a significant development, USA forward Christian Pulisic is on the verge of finalizing a £20m transfer from Chelsea to AC Milan.

Pulisic, aged 24, has found himself surplus to requirements at Stamford Bridge and is scheduled to undergo a medical examination in Milan later this week.

The talented player originally joined Chelsea from Borussia Dortmund in 2019 for a fee of £57.6m, which made him the most expensive North American player at the time.

During his tenure at Chelsea, Pulisic showcased his skills and netted 26 goals in 145 appearances. He notably played a crucial role in Chelsea's triumph over Manchester City in the 2021 Champions League final.

His imminent move to Serie A will reunite him with former Chelsea teammate Ruben Loftus-Cheek, who also recently joined Milan during this summer transfer window.

Meanwhile, Chelsea striker David Datro Fofana, aged 20, has sealed a season-long loan switch to Union Berlin in the Bundesliga. The Ivorian forward had made only four first-team appearances for Chelsea since his arrival from Molde in January.

This summer has seen Chelsea part ways with several established first-team players, indicating a period of transition and new opportunities for both incoming and outgoing talents.

Brazilian Legend Ronaldo Announces Engagement After 7 years In A Relationship

After 7 years of dating, Brazilian great Ronaldo announces his engagement.

Ronaldo Nazario, a former Real Madrid, Barcelona, Milan, and Inter player and now Real Valladolid owner, will go down the aisle kneeling before his partner, Celina Locks, and asking the all-important question. His fiancée was the one who shared the happy couple’s announcement on Instagram.

It is the Brazilian legend’s sixth effort, and he seems to have bonded 100% with the businesswoman, with whom he has been in a relationship for seven years, starting in 2015. Locks’ response to the proposition was unequivocal: “YES, I do. “I love you, Ronaldo, forever,” she said under the photo, adding emojis of an infinity sign and an engagement ring.

In Celina’s post, you can see both of them clothed in white, melting into an embrace and beaming at the camera as she rests her palm on the ex-soccer player’s chest, where you can also see the engagement ring he gave her. The shot that follows shows them seeming as though they are about to kiss.

The replies were quick, and within hours, the pair had received congratulations from all around the world, with over 700 comments and over 22,000 ‘likes’ since they published. “I adore you,” Ronaldo wrote on his comment board.

Despite Ronaldo Nazario and Celina Locks’ announcement of this wonderful news, no information has been provided on the dates for which this event is being considered, or where he will be now that his life is split between Spain and Brazil. What we really want to know, considering his links to the Bernabéu club, is if the groom will be dressed completely in white for the big celebration…

AC Milan Close To Scudetto But Inter Maintain Pressure

AC Milan lead Inter Milan by two points going into the final day of the Serie A season as both sides won on Sunday.

Theo Hernandez’s superb goal sealed AC Milan’s 2-0 victory over Atalanta to put them on the verge of their first Serie A title for 11 years.

The French left-back’s solo run and finish sparked wild celebrations at a raucous San Siro, with Rafael Leao having already scored for the hosts.

But reigning champions Inter beat Cagliari 3-1 to keep the pressure on.

Milan will win the Scudetto with a draw at Sassuolo next Sunday as they have the superior head-to-head record in matches against their city rivals this season, with Inter needing to beat Sampdoria and hope Milan lose.

If Inter had failed to beat Cagliari, the title would have been Milan’s, but Simone Inzaghi’s side won to take it down the wire.

Matteo Darmian headed Inter ahead and Lautaro Martinez doubled the lead with a clinical finish.

Charalampos Lykogiannis gave Cagliari – and Milan – hope but Martinez’s late dinked effort sealed the win.
