Acreano Overview

Karim Adeyemi has officially joined the Hansi Flick project at Barcelona, arriving as the club’s second high-profile signing of the summer following Anthony Gordon. The Germany international has wasted no time in setting his sights on Champions League glory while offering a fascinating perspective on his new team-mate Lamine Yamal.

Luka Modric is not ready to hang up his boots just yet, with the Croatian legend set to sign a one-year contract extension at AC Milan. The veteran midfielder remains determined to bow out at the very highest level after a frustrating end to the previous campaign.

Arsenal have ended their long wait for Premier League title glory, with ‘Invincibles’ squad member Jeremie Aliadiere telling GOAL that Champions League success will now become more of a priority for the Gunners. Mikel Arteta’s side reached the final of that competition last season, but north London is still waiting on a historic first European Cup triumph.

Kylian Mbappe will have been left “devastated” and “fuming” at his trophy failings with Real Madrid and France, Jeremie Aliadiere has told GOAL, with the ‘Galactico’ forward desperate to emulate Cristiano Ronaldo in the Champions League-winning department. That prestigious European prize has remained elusive to a man who is now the all-time leading goalscorer in World Cup history.
