William Saliba revealed how he's already "taken revenge" against Enzo Fernandez for the World Cup defeat with Arsenal. The French defender, now a pillar at both Arsenal and for Didier Deschamps’ national side, says France aren’t intimidated by anyone, not even Lionel Messi’s world champions.
Months after the explosive dressing-room fight that rocked Marseille and sent Adrien Rabiot and Jonathan Rowe out of the club, coach Roberto De Zerbi has said the team are better off without the duo. The pair were sold in response to the altercation that occurred after their first game of the season and De Zerbi has hinted at deeper problems with French midfielder Rabiot as he defended the club's reaction.
Marseille coach Roberto De Zerbi opened up on the hardships that shaped him, revealing how his family was forced to sell their factory during Italy’s economic crisis. Football, he says, has never been just fun- it’s been a path of responsibility, social redemption, and personal growth, shaping both his life and his coaching philosophy.
William Saliba explained his decision to sign a new Arsenal contract and snub Real Madrid despite "lacking trophies" with the Gunners. The French defender could have chased the bright lights of Madrid. He could have swapped north London for the glamour of the Santiago Bernabeu. But when Los Blancos came knocking, Arsenal’s defensive powerhouse slammed the door shut; and he has no regrets.
Mason Greenwood snubbed Cristiano Ronaldo for another former Manchester United team-mate when naming the best player he's worked with and chose Lionel Messi in the GOAT debate. While Greenwood briefly played alongside Ronaldo during the Portuguese striker's ill-fated second stint at Old Trafford, tensions reportedly ran high between the two as they struggled to build a successful playing relationship.
Luka Modric has been hailed as "an inspiration" and "a true example for everyone" by his AC Milan midfield partner Adrien Rabiot. The Croatian midfielder, who joined as a free agent after spending 13 years at Real Madrid, has had a phenomenal start to life at the San Siro, with the Rossoneri emerging as early contenders to win the Serie A this season.
Adrien Rabiot has branded Serie A’s plan to stage AC Milan’s league clash with Como in Australia as “completely crazy” and “truly absurd.” UEFA has “reluctantly” approved the move amid global regulatory loopholes, but the Frenchman slammed the idea of flying across continents for domestic matches, calling it “beyond reason.”
Ex-West Ham United centre-back Nayef Aguerd has spoken about the ordeal he was put through by what is thought to have been an overzealous fan. The defender was at the airport in Marseille, waiting to fly to Morocco to link up with his national team for upcoming games, when he was attacked out of nowhere.
Vitinha's growing influence at Paris Saint-Germain has been formally recognised by his teammates, who have chosen him to be the deputy to captain Marquinhos. The appointment comes just after Vitinha made his 100th Ligue 1 appearance, cementing his status as a key figure for Luis Enrique's side.
