🚨 𝗢𝗙𝗙𝗜𝗖𝗜𝗔𝗟: José Mourinho being presented at Real Madrid right now.

🚨🔴⚪️ EXCLUSIVE: Benfica are in talks to sign Australian defender Alessandro Circati from Parma. Negotiations underway for Australian centre back. 🇦🇺

🚨⚫️🔵 Inter are closing in on new deal agreement with Pio Esposito until June 2031. Salary increased for the striker and formal steps to follow soon. Nothing signed yet but moving to the final stages.

🚨🔴⚪️ Diego Simeone also announces Julián Álvarez STAYS at Atlético Madrid pointing at club decision. “If the club owner has expressed himself so firmly, there’s not much more to add. It’s like in court: there’s no longer any room for doubt”.

Virgil van Dijk on building a relationship with his two new CB teammates 🤝: 🗣️ "Jeremy’s English is, I would say, a bit better than Ronald's, but at the end of the day we are all pretty good footballers. We can see and smell some moments on how to defend certain situations. But it's pretty clear that you need to form a connection together, and that takes a bit of time. In my opinion, that's absolutely normal, but hopefully we can get that going as quickly as possible."

She is brutal 😭

We trained Americans well

🚨🔴⚪️ Diego Simeone: “We don’t believe Julián Alvarez is in the right condition to play or take part for tomorrow’s game”. “Hopefully, over these next four days, he’ll make further progress and we’ll be closer to where we want him to be”.

🚨🔴⚪️ Diego Simeone on Julián Álvarez: “If the club owner has spoken so categorically, then there’s nothing more to say”. “It’s like when you go to court, that’s it, there’s nothing more to it. We’re looking after both the person and the player, and we understand that he is not in the right condition to play in this match”.

🚨🔴⚪️ PSV Eindhoven are closing in on Lutsharel Geertruida deal on initial loan from RB Leipzig, negotiations underway. Real Sociedad and Everton also called after Ajax to try explore conditions of the deal until the end. Final decision on player side will be in next 24h.

🔵🔴 Fermín López: “Rodri will give us a lot of quality, it’s a fantastic signing”. “I’ve asked for number 7! I always liked it. I’m a little bit sad to leave No16 but it will be in good hands”.

🚨 Fermín López on Julián Álvarez: “I like him, he’s a great player, but ultimately he’s an Atlético Madrid player, so I can’t say much more about him”. “I can only say that, in our squad and the way we play, I think he would fit in very well”.

Arsenal would like to augment their attack. Their focus has been on the left wing, but there is some flexibility around this should the right forward become available. The club have long-term targets such as Kenan Yildiz and Julian Alvarez, and are waiting to see if the market renders one available.

🚨 𝗖𝗥𝗔𝗭𝗬 𝗙𝗔𝗖𝗧: Only one Real Madrid player has won the Golden Boy award while being at the club. That player is Jude Bellingham; he won it in 2023.
