Former Manchester United defender Marcos Rojo has been handed a four-match ban following a chaotic sequence of events in Argentina. The veteran centre-back was sanctioned after a violent incident during a high-stakes clash between Racing Club and River Plate, proving his fiery temperament remains intact as he faces mounting disciplinary issues in his homeland.
Alejandro Garnacho’s time at Chelsea could be coming to a premature end as reports in South America link the winger with a summer transfer to a surprise club. Despite arriving from Manchester United with high expectations, the Argentina international has struggled to find his best form at Stamford Bridge and could now be offered an escape route back to his homeland.
Manchester City legend Sergio Aguero has confirmed he will undergo surgery after suffering a serious injury while playing in a veterans' match in Argentina. The former striker, who was forced into early retirement from professional football in 2021, sparked major concern when he was carried off the pitch in an over-35s clash between Independiente and River Plate.
Lautaro Martinez remains a cornerstone of Inter, but his heart still beats strongly for Racing Club. The striker, who left Argentina in 2018 to join the Nerazzurri, remains an iconic figure for Racing fans and has confirmed his long-term goal to 'convince' wife to return to the Argentine giants in the future.
Argentina’s most-capped goalkeeper, Sergio Romero, has hung up his gloves at the age of 39. The former Manchester United star, who enjoyed a trophy-laden career spanning nearly two decades, has reportedly stepped away from the pitch due to family reasons. After a final stint in his homeland with Argentinos Juniors, the veteran shot-stopper is now preparing to transition into a new role on the touchline.
Apart from the UEFA Champions League final, you cannot buy tickets for the Champions League directly through UEFA itself.
Instead, they are sold club-by-club among the teams competing in this year's edition. You must visit the individual club’s website for the fixture you want to attend and buy your seat from there.
Capacity is always limited for these Champions League knockout matches, and demand often exceeds available allocation.
Will I be able to buy Champions League tickets through secondary sites?
In addition, fans can purchase seats on the secondary market. StubHub is one of the leading retailers for those seeking to buy tickets through alternative channels.
