EPL: Raheem Sterling takes decision on joining Man Utd
Chelsea forward, Raheem Sterling is open to complete a shock move to Premier League rivals, Manchester United.
Sterling’s representatives have been considering their options after new Chelsea manage, Enzo Maresca dropped their client from first-team training and effectively told him to leave Stamford Bridge.
Sterling was left out of the Premier League opener between the two sides last weekend despite featuring in pre-season.
The 29-year-old has not featured in Chelsea’s two Premier League fixtures against Manchester City and Wolves this season.
The England star is expected to leave Chelsea before the end of the summer transfer window.
However, according to the Daily Mail, Sterling has not ruled out a move to the Red Devils this summer.
Sterling joined Chelsea from Manchester City in 2022 and had played for Liverpool in the past.
Victor Boniface has been ruled out of Bayer Leverkusen’s Bundesliga clash with Freiburg.
Boniface returned to full team training this week after a short injury layoff.
The 23-year-old sustained a muscle injury on international duty last month.
Leverkusen manager, Xabi Alonso stated that the powerful striker has not fully recovered from the injury and will not face Freiburg on Saturday (Saturday).
“Victor Boniface, Amine Adil and Jonas Hoffmann are unavailable for the game due to injuries,” Alonso said during his interaction with the media.
The Nigeria international has scored eight goals in 15 appearances across all competitions for Die Werkself this season.
Carlo Ancelotti has become Real Madrid’s most successful manager after the club defeated Pachuca 3-0 to win the FIFA Intercontinental Cup on Wednesday night.
Kylian Mbappe, Vinicius Junior, and Rodrygo all scored as Los Blancos clinched their latest piece of silverware.
It is also a record-breaking 15th trophy for Ancelotti with the Spanish giants across two spells.
He has won three Champions League trophies, two La Liga titles, two Copa del Reys, two Spanish Supercopas, three UEFA Super Cups, two Club World Cups, and the Intercontinental Cup.
Ancelotti has surpassed Miguel Muñoz, who led Real Madrid from 1959-1974 and won 14 trophies, including nine league wins and two European Cups.
Former Super Eagles head coach, Jose Peseiro says Atalanta manager, Gian Piero Gasperini must take credit for Ademola Lookman’s remarkable rise this year.
Lookman has thrived at Atalanta since arriving from Bundesliga outfit, RB Leipzig in 2022.
The 27-year-old has also excelled at the international level, playing a key role in Peseiro’s side that finished second at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations earlier this year.
“I think giving Lookman the freedom to move around has allowed him to show his quality, both in terms of decision-making and execution,” Peseiro told Sportitalia.
” Of course, the club and Gasperini have provided Lookman with the environment to grow as a player in all aspects.”
Lookman was named African Footballer of the Year this week.
Peseiro said his former deserved the accolade.
“I think Lookman’s victory is deserved given his performances both for Atalanta, his club and for his country, Nigeria,” added the Portuguese.
