As the season enters its final stages, FCB will be without one of their top talents. The Munich club has now officially confirmed this.

Arda Guler produced a moment of pure magic to cap off Real Madrid's resounding 4-1 victory over Elche, launching a breathtaking 68-metre lob from inside his own half. The audacious strike left the Bernabeu in awe and perfectly encapsulated a dominant night for Los Blancos, with the 21-year-old playmaker proudly taking to Instagram to share the spectacular footage.

Lionel Messi was left out of Inter Miami's squad as they played out a goalless draw against Charlotte.

Tottenham Hotspur interim boss Igor Tudor has stood by his brutal 17th-minute substitution of Antonin Kinsky during a chaotic defeat to Atletico Madrid. Despite facing intense scrutiny for ignoring the tearful goalkeeper as he left the pitch, Tudor remains adamant that his touchline reaction was a deliberate strategy to prevent a bad situation from spiraling out of control.

Manchester City’s hopes of recapturing the Premier League crown took a significant hit against West Ham, leaving them trailing Mikel Arteta's Arsenal by nine points. While City still hold a game in hand over the Gunners, the stalemate at London Stadium felt like a missed opportunity to pile pressure on title-chasing rivals. Despite the growing gap and City’s recent inconsistency, Pep Guardiola remains adamant that the race is still alive.

Despite the magnitude of the occasion, the winger was only fit enough for a place on the bench, sparking a wave of criticism from high-profile pundits who questioned his commitment and professional conduct on the night, claims to which the Magpies' man has now emphatically responded.

Jobe Bellingham had a difficult start at Borussia Dortmund and struggled to adapt to the higher standard of play. That never worried manager Niko Kovac. The 20-year-old has since made remarkable progress at BVB.

Real Madrid showed no mercy to Elche in their last league match, sealing a resounding 4-1 victory that keeps the pressure on Barcelona. But Arda Guler stole the show, leaving his manager reaching for superlatives. The young playmaker’s strike was the highlight of a busy night at the Bernabeu, and Alvaro Arbeloa was quick to point out just how rare such a goal is in modern football.

Arsenal moved nine points clear at the Premier League summit following a late 2-0 win over Everton, but the talk of north London remains Max Dowman's sensational cameo.

Despite the absence of multiple big stars, Javier Mascherano's side held firm in a scoreless draw

Argentina teammates Lionel Messi and Rodrigo De Paul were not included in Javier Mascherano’s matchday squad for Inter Miami’s road clash with Charlotte FC at Bank of America Stadium.

Chelsea manager Liam Rosenior was left fuming after a sequence of events saw referee Paul Tierney situated inside the Blues' team huddle just moments before the Premier League clash against Newcastle United began.
