Aperçu Inter de Lages

Ansu Fati was the man to inherit Barcelona’s No.10 shirt when Lionel Messi departed in 2021. Gilles Grimandi - who has been keeping a close eye on the Spanish forward at Monaco - has told GOAL that taking a GOAT jersey at Camp Nou did not “kill” the one-time wonderkid’s career, but it is impossible to ignore the fact that “great” potential has not been fulfilled.

Germany head coach Jurgen Klopp has weighed in on the eternal debate between Spain’s two biggest clubs ahead of the upcoming El Clasico clash between Barcelona and Real Madrid. The former Liverpool manager revealed which side he is currently backing to triumph at the Camp Nou while reflecting on his historical feelings toward the rivalry.

The prolific No.9 is considered to be something of a dying breed in modern football, with creative playmakers now all the rage. There was a time though, not all that long ago, when fearsome strikers ruled the world. Luis Suarez formed part of that pack, but where does he rank in a generation that included Robert Lewandowski, Harry Kane and Karim Benzema? Fellow Uruguayan Gus Poyet has attempted to answer that question for GOAL.

Real Madrid youngster Arda Guler has lifted the lid on his decision to snatch a goal away from teammate Kylian Mbappe during the club's recent European exploits. The Turkish international was in a jovial mood following a dominant display that saw Los Blancos brush aside RB Leipzig at the Bernabeu.
