After nine memorable years at Liverpool, Mohamed Salah will be bidding farewell to Anfield over the summer. He is being released as a free agent, with John Barnes telling GOAL why the Reds are happy to pass on a potential £20 million ($26m) transfer fee. Premier League and Champions League title winner Salah is seeing the final year of his contract on Merseyside terminated.
Portugal international Joao Cancelo has dropped a significant hint regarding his future, hinting he is willing to reduce his salary to secure a return to Benfica. Currently on loan at Barcelona from Saudi Pro League side Al-Hilal, the full-back's comments have added a fresh layer of intrigue to his complex transfer situation.
Cristiano Ronaldo has scored a superb backheel goal in training for Al-Nassr ahead of his return to competitive action. The Portuguese superstar looks sharp and ready for the Saudi Pro League restart after a spell on the sidelines due to a muscular injury.
Joao Felix has defended his decision to leave Chelsea for Al-Nassr, insisting the move was essential for his happiness and professional growth. The Portugal international made a permanent transfer to Stamford Bridge in 2024, but struggled for consistency in London and was sold to the Saudi Pro League giants last summer. Now playing in his preferred role, the forward believes he has finally rediscovered the form that first made him a global star.
Portugal head coach Roberto Martinez has moved to ease fears regarding Cristiano Ronaldo’s fitness after a hamstring injury sidelined the legendary forward from the March international camp. The 41-year-old remains central to the Selecao’s plans as he prepares for a record sixth World Cup campaign in North America. Martinez emphasised that the captain’s elite mentality and remarkable goalscoring record ensure his place remains secure.
A stunning move to Wrexham for Cristiano Ronaldo is being ruled out as the Portuguese superstar does not need Ryan Reynolds’ assistance in order to achieve his Hollywood dream.

Cristiano Ronaldo is reportedly trying to convince ex-Manchester United and Real Madrid team-mate Casemiro to join him at Al-Nassr instead of heading to MLS to link up with Lionel Messi.

Mohamed Salah has, as he prepares to leave Liverpool as a free agent, been warned off a move to join Inter Miami superstar Lionel Messi in MLS.

Barcelona are desperate to keep Joao Cancelo at the club beyond his current loan spell, but the financial hurdles involving Al-Hilal are proving difficult to clear. The Catalan giants are reportedly hoping the Portuguese international will take matters into his own hands to force a permanent stay in Spain.
Cristiano Ronaldo has been given the green light to return to Al-Nassr training following a successful rehabilitation programme in Madrid and Riyadh. The Portuguese icon, who has been sidelined with a hamstring issue, is expected to feature in Friday’s Saudi Pro League clash against Al-Najma. His recovery provides a timely boost for both his club’s title charge and Portugal’s preparations for the 2026 World Cup.
