Brazil are on the verge of securing their long-term future as Carlo Ancelotti prepares to put pen to paper on a contract extension. The former Real Madrid boss, who took the reins last summer, has agreed fresh terms that will see him lead the Selecao until the 2030 World Cup, ending speculation over a potential return to Europe this summer.
Former Barcelona forward Vitor Roque feels he moved to Europe too early in his career as he reflected on his disappointing period with the Catalan club. Now back in Brazil with Palmeiras, Roque believes the return was an important step that will help him move forward professionally. His resurgence has not gone unnoticed, as the Brazilian forward has been selected by Carlo Ancelotti for Brazil’s upcoming friendlies.
Casemiro has backed Neymar as Brazil's most decisive player as the Selecao prepare for the 2026 World Cup. Neymar's fitness issues have deprived him of a place under Carlo Ancelotti, sparking fears he will not be at the tournament next year. However, the Manchester United midfielder argued that the team should adjust tactically to give the Santos forward freedom, citing how Argentina played around Lionel Messi on their way to glory in 2022.
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.
