Ligue 1 news

Liverpool's future defensive plans have hit a significant roadblock as January signing Jeremy Jacquet has been effectively ruled out for the remainder of the campaign. The 20-year-old Frenchman, who will complete a £60 million ($80m) move to Anfield this summer, is set to undergo surgery on a serious shoulder injury sustained while playing for Ligue 1 side Rennes.

Mason Greenwood may yet bring his hopes of earning an England recall to a close by pledging allegiance to Jamaica at the 2026 World Cup, admits a man that once trod a similar path. Frank Sinclair joined the Reggae Boyz ranks for a major tournament adventure in 1998 and has told GOAL why a forward starring at Marseille could take a similar decision.

Lionesses captain Leah Williamson is one of four footballers to be nominated for accolades at the prestigious 2026 Laureus World Sports Awards, with her England team also shortlisted after winning the 2025 European Championships. Lamine Yamal was the only footballer to win an award at last year's ceremony, with Real Madrid also scooping up a team prize, but the chances of more recognition are greater this year, with significantly more nominees from the world of football.

GOAL runs the rule over the British players earning a living away from their homeland, with plenty more stars deciding to leave their comfort zones in search of a better footballing life elsewhere. The Premier League is still obviously one of the world's most entertaining divisions and the Championship can prove fantastic for development, but there are more options out there.

The Endrick show continues to captivate Ligue 1, but even a masterclass from the Real Madrid loanee wasn't enough to stop a resurgent Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang from snatching the headlines. In a pulsating clash at the Stade Velodrome, the Brazilian starlet showcased exactly why Los Blancos were so desperate to secure his signature, providing a pair of sublime assists. However, the night ultimately belonged to the veteran Aubameyang, whose late brace turned the game on its head to secure a 3-2 victory for Marseille.

The Parisian powerhouse will welcome the Blues to the Parc des Princes in a little over a week before the return leg at Stamford Bridge the following week as Luis Enrique's side seek to defend their European crown.

At the very start of the year, it looked like Endrick's dream of making Brazil's World Cup squad was dead in the water. The Real Madrid youngster only played 99 minutes for the club in the first half of the season, with then-Blancos boss Xabi Alonso favouring homegrown forward Gonzalo Garcia ahead of him, and a move away became inevitable in the winter transfer window.
