Arsenal icon Patrick Vieira has broken his silence after being named the new head coach of Senegal, describing himself as "honoured and proud" to lead his birth nation. The former Gunners captain is set to be formally unveiled on Friday, marking a historic return to his roots for his first-ever stint in international management.

Bayern Munich have officially secured the signature of 18-year-old Senegalese talent Bara Sapoko Ndiaye. The youngster is being tipped to fill the midfield void left by club legend Leon Goretzka, with manager Vincent Kompany already impressed by his dynamic pace and intelligence during his recent trial period.
