FC Porto and Atletico Madrid paid tribute to late Liverpool star Diogo Jota and his brother Andre Silva before the start of their pre-season friendly on Sunday. Jota and Silva tragically passed away one month ago in a car accident in Spain. Since their deaths, tributes have poured in across the football world and Liverpool have retired Jota's No.20 jersey.
Joao Felix's move to Cristiano Ronaldo's Al-Nassr has sparked criticism from his former Atletico Madrid team-mate Saul Niguez, who claims that the Portuguese forward has failed to maximise his potential due to a lack of hard work. Saul insists talent is "worthless" without the work ethic to back it up, and has revealed that "many of us tried to help" Felix during his turbulent years in Europe.
Saul Niguez has reportedly agreed to join Brazilian giants Flamengo just hours after pulling the plug on a move to Turkish side Trabzonspor. The former Chelsea and Atletico Madrid midfielder cited "personal stuff" for the sudden change in plans. He will now reunite with ex-teammate Filipe Luis, who is head coach at the Brazilian Serie A side, and Jorginho.
Antony will hope to follow in Marcus Rashford's footsteps and move out of Manchester United this summer after being deemed surplus to Rubem Amorim's needs. He spent the second half of the 2024-25 campaign on loan at Real Betis and the La Liga club would have loved to make his transfer permanent but they do not have money to secure a move for the United outcast.
