Kylian Mbappe 2026

Mbappe's entourage strongly DISAGREE with club's injury diagnosis

Real Madrid have been plunged into a state of internal conflict as a significant disagreement has emerged between the club and Kylian Mbappe's inner circle regarding the forward's recovery timeline from injury. While Los Blancos are desperate to have their talismanic number 10 available for a potentially season-defining Champions League second-leg showdown against Manchester City, those closest to the Frenchman are reportedly horrified by the prospect of him being rushed back into action prematurely.

Liverpool must bite the bullet and sack Slot to salvage season

Arne Slot called Tuesday's embarrassing 2-1 loss at Wolves "the same old story". And he was right. There was nothing new or novel about their painfully predictable defeat at Molineux. Liverpool produced a dreadfully flat first half, got themselves back into the game after gifting the opposition a goal, only to then lose it by conceding an injury-time winner.

Blow for Barcelona as Balde to miss BOTH legs of Newcastle UCL tie

Barcelona’s season has been rocked by a devastating double injury blow following their exit from the Copa del Rey. Despite a 3-0 victory against Atletico Madrid in the semi-final second leg, the Catalans went out 4-3 on aggregate and, more importantly, lost two vital components of their backline. The club has now confirmed that both Alejandro Balde and Jules Kounde sustained significant hamstring injuries during the high-stakes encounter, leaving manager Hansi Flick with a major selection headache ahead of their Champions League round of 16 tie against Newcastle.

Explained: Why Galatasaray fans banned from UCL game at Liverpool

Galatasaray face a daunting trip to Anfield without their vocal support after UEFA's Appeals Body confirmed a ticket ban for their upcoming Champions League last-16 clash against Liverpool. The Turkish giants are set to travel to Merseyside for the second leg of the tie, but the legendary atmosphere they usually bring on the road will be silenced following a disciplinary crackdown from European football's governing body.

Childish Chelsea in danger of setting whole season on fire

Chelsea head coach Liam Rosenior could barely contain his frustration after his side conceded a 93rd-minute equaliser against Burnley at Stamford Bridge on February 21 - just three days after blowing a 2-0 lead at home to Leeds United. "We've set fire to four points from two home games," the Blues boss fumed in his post-match press conference.
