Knockout Cup Overview

The corridors of power at the Allianz Arena are rarely quiet, but the latest tremors suggest a major executive casualty could be on the horizon. Despite securing a domestic double under Vincent Kompany, Bayern Munich are reportedly weighing up the future of sporting director Max Eberl, with the high-profile transfer decision regarding Mathys Tel's move at the very heart of the tension.

Cristiano Ronaldo has been tipped to defy the ageing process by competing in the 2030 World Cup with Portugal, potentially alongside his son, at the age of 45. The Al-Nassr forward has received the backing for a "perfect ending" to his career from his ex-Manchester United team-mate Eric Djemba-Djemba.

The Ronaldo dynasty at Al-Nassr shows no signs of slowing down after Cristiano's young son Mateo went viral for scoring a sensational long-range free-kick. Footage of the strike was shared by Georgina Rodriguez, who was quick to highlight the striking similarities between the youngster and his legendary father.

Sergio Conceicao is set to leave Al-Ittihad after a short-lived tenure in the Saudi Pro League. The former Porto boss reached a mutual agreement to terminate his contract after losing the fierce league title race to Cristiano Ronaldo's Al-Nassr, concluding a frustrating campaign that saw the Jeddah-based giants fall short of their lofty expectations.
