كاسكارينو: ميسي السبب وراء رغبة رونالدو في مغادرة مانشستر يونايتد

يريد كريستيانو رونالدو مغادرة مانشستر يونايتد، لحماية سجل أهدافه في دوري أبطال أوروبا، خوفًا من أن يتفوق عليه منافسه ليونيل ميسي.

هذا وفقًا لمهاجم الدوري الإنجليزي الممتاز السابق توني كاسكارينو، الذي يعتقد أن النجم البرتغالي طلب ترك الشياطين الحمر حتى يتمكن من الوصول إلى مرتبة أفضل هداف في تاريخ البطولة.

سجل رونالدو 141 هدفًا في بطولة دوري أبطال أوروبا، فضلًا عن الفوز بها في مناسبات متعددة، حيث رفع الكأس المرموق مرة مع مانشستر يونايتد، وأربع مرات مع ريال مدريد، وهو اللاعب الوحيد حتى الآن الذي سجل في نهائيات دوري أبطال أوروبا 3 مرات.

ولن يستطيع رونالدو اللعب في تلك البطولة الموسم المقبل، بعدما فشل مانشستر يونايتد في التأهل حيث احتل المركز السادس في الدوري الإنجليزي الموسم الماضي.

ومع ذلك، سيشارك ميسي في الموسم المقبل من البطولة رفقة باريس سان جيرمان، مع العلم إنه على بعد 16 هدفًا فقط من معادلة رصيد رونالدو.

ويشكك كاسكارينو في أن هذا هو سبب رغبة رونالدو في مغادرة الأولد ترافورد هذا الصيف.

قال كاسكارينو في تصريحات لشبكة “talkSPORT” الإنجليزية: “رونالدو لاعب، كالعادة، لديه غرور”.

وأضاف: “الفرق التي لعب معها كانت ناجحة، لذلك عليك دائمًا اتباع ذلك كلاعب في الفريق”.

وواصل: “إنه رائع، يسجل الأهداف ويحقق البطولات ويحقق الإنجازات، إنه أحد أعظم اللاعبين في تلك اللعبة على الإطلاق”.

وأردف: “يمكنك الحصول على كل هذا وهذا جيد، طالما أنك تفوز، عندما لا تفوز الآن لديك مشكلة”.

واستكمل: “لدي شك بعض الشيء لأنه سجل 141 هدفًا في دوري أبطال أوروبا، ميسي سجل 125، إنه لا يريد عدم لعب كرة القدم في دوري أبطال أوروبا لأنه يريد أن يكون أعظم هداف في البطولة على الإطلاق وهذه هي طبيعته”.

Undoubtedly the best match of the tournament so far. It had all the makings – both teams scoring big, a last-ball tie and a nervy bowl-out. In the end, it was Delhi who emerged victorious, winning the bowl-out 2-0. It was a gutsy performance after Chandigarh looked to have the match wrapped up after posting 200, the second-highest score of the tournament.Delhi, however, miss out on semi-final spot, as they could climb as far up as fifth in the points table with the win in this, their last match. Chandigarh would be gutted after this performance but may still make the semis with a win against Ahmedabad and other results going their way.The Chandigarh openers justified captain Andrew Hall’s decision to bat first. Sarabjit Singh and TP Singh were in unforgiving mood as they launched into Shane Bond and TP Sudhindra early on. Sudhindra in particular came in for some punishment from TP, being hit for two and four boundaries in his second and third overs respectively.TP looked to be a man possessed as he raced to his fifty off 22 balls, while Sarabjit ably assisted him at the other end. Chandigarh were looking at a mammoth total at the half-way stage with the score on 95. But Benkenstein had TP caught by Mishra in the eleventh over.Newest recruit Graeme Hick walked in and it was in Benkenstein’s next over that he smashed four fours. Sarabjit brought up his fifty with a six off Abid Nabi as Chandigarh stepped on the accelerator with the score on 157 and four overs to go.But Bond, introduced back into the attack removed Hick and new man Lou Vincent in successive balls as Delhi looked to claw back. Murtaza’s twin strikes the next over pegged back Chandigarh further. Chetan Sharma became the first man in the tournament to be given out obstructing the field as Chandigarh finished on 200.Undaunted by the huge target, Monish Mishra gave Delhi the perfect start hitting Hall for three consecutive fours in the first over. Similar treatment was dished out for Ishan Malhotra in his first over. The bowler was then plundered for 24 in his next as Delhi raced to 68 in five overs. Mishra brought up his fifty with a four off Hall, while Avishka Gunawardene held up the other end well as Delhi reached 109 after 10 overs.But in the 11th over, Mishra was stumped off Rajesh Sharma for 81. His 44-ball innings comprised 10 fours and three sixes. Abhinav Bali and Gunawardene looked to reduce the runs required-balls remaining margin. However, a cameo from Abbas Ali edged Delhi closer after TP had accounted for Bali in the 17th over with the score on 167.But it was the last over from Hall which provided the heart-stopping moment. He bowled a fuller length, castling Gunawardene off the second ball, as the equation finally reduced to five off the last ball. Nixon turned it to fine leg to bring the scores level and set up a bowl-out.Chandigarh were disappointing in the bowl-out with Bipul Sharma, Chetan Sharma, Daryl Tuffey and Andrew Hall failing to hit the stumps. But hits from Ali Murtaza and Dhruv Mahajan were enough to hand Delhi victory.

Forget Sanson: Villa must unleash Chukwuemeka

After seeing the transfer window shut on Tuesday night, Aston Villa boss Dean Smith will be quickly turning his attentions towards his side’s next Premier League game against Chelsea.

While they may not have got the midfield signing they seemed to want – Southampton’s James Ward-Prowse was of course one of their main transfer targets – they will be getting Morgan Sanson when he returns from injury.

But while the January signing will be hoping to finally make his mark on the first-team after seeing his first few months interrupted, Smith should instead look to unleash Carney Chukwuemeka.

The 17-year-old has already been pictured in Aston Villa’s first-team colours this season, appearing in both the Premier League and Carabao Cup.

Question remarks remain about whether he will be a permanent member of the starting line-up when Villa get all their players back from various issues, but Chukwuemeka certainly has the natural talent and ability to keep his place.

The Birmingham Mail’s Ashley Preece has already suggested “Chukwuemeka will have a big role” to play, while former Villa midfielder Lee Hendrie has previously urged Smith to throw Chukwuemeka into the deep end with the first-team.

He exclusively told FFC: “I kind of go off the fans’ views – I know he’s been scoring goals in the Under-18s. When someone is scoring goals, they’ve showed they’re a massive threat, it does attract football clubs and when you’re getting Manchester City and United hovering around the vicinity and are trying to take the young players away.

“This is where I feel if he’s that good we need to see him filtered through to the first team especially at this stage of the season. We’ve seen the likes of Louie Barry, who I felt would have had more of a chance this season, and I would put him in that category. I’d like to see more of him playing, because if you’re good enough, you’re old enough.”

The 6 foot 1 starlet is beginning to fill out in his physical frame, and that only bodes well for his chances of acclimatising to the rigours of the Premier League.

He’s already got a taster of football at the highest level. Now it’s time for Smith to unleash him, even despite the impending return of Sanson.

Meanwhile, Villa had a howler on transfer deadline day…

Wolves: Raul Jimenez avoids FIFA ban

Bruno Lage has endured a difficult start to life as the manager of Wolverhampton Wanderers.

He has just one win under his belt in the Carabao Cup but the Premier League has been a very different beast for the Molineux outfit. Wolves haven’t scored yet in the top-flight this term and they haven’t secured a single point either.

All of the club’s outings have been frustrating 1-0 defeats, but against Watford they should feel confident of getting off the mark.

They have signed Hwang Hee-chan on loan from RB Leipzig and, in a surprising piece of news, they will be able to call on the services of Raul Jimenez today.

The striker was called up to the Mexico squad for the international break, but with his country on the red list, Wolves prevented him from travelling.

The Brazilian FA and FIFA came together to ban those who didn’t travel to South America but it would appear that Mexico’s FA have been more lenient.

Jimenez was set to be banned for five days, which would have ruled him out of the clash on Saturday afternoon.

Lage said in his pre-match press conference: “We think we can use Raul because the game is about putting the best players on the pitch. The best players from both sides should be on the pitch. I am very thankful for the decision.”

He added: “The club talked and we arrived at a good solution. It was the best decision for all, especially for the fans.”

This will come as a huge boost for Wolves, especially with the club failing to score this term.

Jimenez has long been the club’s go-to man when it comes to goals. He has netted 48 of them since penning terms in the Midlands in 2018.

You only need to reflect on last season to understand how poorly they perform without him. The attacker sustained a fractured skull in a match with Arsenal and missed the entire season from November onwards.

After that, Wolves struggled to beat the goalkeeper, with their top scorers in Pedro Neto and Ruben Neves finding the net on just five occasions each in the league.

Jimenez, on the other hand, had scored 27 times in all competitions in the 2019/20 campaign, so Lage will be absolutely elated that a player with that kind of track record is available this weekend.

Watch out, Watford.

AND in other news, Wolves may have a new Conor Coady in rarely-seen 17 y/o who’s a “super kid”…

بعد مانشستر يونايتد.. نادٍ إنجليزي جديد يرغب في ضم كانتي

يرغب أحد أندية الدوري الإنجليزي الممتاز في التعاقد مع الدولي الفرنسي نجولو كانتي متوسط ميدان فريق تشيلسي في نافذة الانتقالات الصيفية.

ولم يتبق أمام اللاعب البالغ من العمر 31 عامًا سوى 12 شهرًا على نهاية عقده الحالي مع في ستامفورد بريدج، وأصبح مستقبله موضع تساؤل في الأسابيع الأخيرة.

ويواجه تشيلسي خطر خسارة اللاعب الفرنسي في صفقة انتقال مجانية في صيف 202 ، لكن لا يُتوقع أن يعطي الأولوية للتوقيع في خط الوسط هذا الصيف بينما يسعى توماس توخيل إلى تعزيزات هجومية ودفاعية.

ووفقًا لصحيفة “ديلي ستار” البريطانية، فإن آرسنال أبدى اهتمامه بالتعاقد مع كانتي هذا الصيف.

وقالت الصحيفة إن الاهتمام بضم كانتي يأتي بطلب من مدرب الفريق الإسباني ميكيل أرتيتا، والذي يريد تقوية خط وسط الفريق.

آرسنال في وسط الميدان، لديه توماس بارتي، جرانيت تشاكا، محمد النني، ألبرت لوكونجا، لكن المدرب الإسباني يريد إضافة المزيد من الجودة في خط الوسط.

ويُضيف التقرير أن آرسنال مُستعد الآن لمحاولة اختبار عزم تشيلسي على كانتي، ولكن يبقى أن نرى ما إذا كان البلوز سيوافق على بيعه في الصيف الجاري.

استمرار كانتي من عدمه مع تشيلسي لن يكون في يد إدارة النادي، بل المدرب الألماني توماس توخيل، حيث يضع مالك النادي الجديد الأمريكي تود بويلي، أمور الانتقالات في يد مدربه.

يُذكر أن مانشستر يونايتد أيضًا أبدى اهتمامه بالتعاقد مع كانتي من تشيلسي، ولكن النادي يضعه كخيار ثانٍ خلف فرينكي دي يونج لاعب وسط فريق برشلونة.

Lucas Lima encontra empresários para analisar proposta do Santos

MatériaMais Notícias

Lucas Lima teve uma reunião nesta terça-feira com seu pai e os empresários, Edson Khoddor e Júnior Santos, no CT Rei Pelé, para avaliar a proposta de renovação de contrato com o Peixe.

O camisa 10 leu o contrato, mas ainda não respondeu. Ele e seu pai farão uma avaliação e não deram um prazo para resposta.

A proposta é para o meia ficar na Vila Belmiro até o fim de 2020 e receber R$ 41 milhões no total. Seus representantes consideram a oferta como uma das melhores do Brasil. Vale lembrar que no ano passado Lucas Lima recusou o montante de R$ 5 milhões mensais do China Hebei Fortune.

Em algumas entrevistas, ele nunca escondeu o desejo de jogar na Europa, mas recusou o Porto (POR), Crystal Palace (ING) e Napoli (ITA).

Seus direitos atualmente são divididos em três partes: 80% pertencem ao Doyen Sports, 10% à Khoddor Soccer e 10% ao Santos.

Recentemente, o camisa 10 que é constantemente chamado para a Seleção Brasileira foi sondado pelo Barcelona (ESP). O Peixe consultou seu departamento jurídico para notificar o clube espanhol por assédio, já que o atleta só pode assinar pré-contrato com outro clube a partir de 1 de julho, seis meses antes do fim de seu atual contrato, válido até 31 de dezembro.

أرتيتا يعلق على مستقبل ساكا بعد اهتمام ليفربول ومانشستر سيتي

كشف مدرب فريق آرسنال مايكل أرتيتا آخر تطورات مستقبل اللاعب بوكايو ساكا، بعد ارتباطه بإمكانية الرحيل عن النادي الإنجليزي هذا الصيف.

تطور ساكا ليصبح واحدًا من أكثر نجوم آرسنال تأثيرًا، لكن مستقبله على المدى الطويل في الإمارات أصبح محل شك، مع ارتباط كل من ليفربول ومانشستر سيتي بضمه.

أشارت التقارير الأخيرة إلى أن مانشستر سيتي ينظر إلى الدولي الإنجليزي على أنه بديل “الحلم” لمواطنه رحيم ستيرلينج، الذي أكمل انتقاله إلى تشيلسي هذا الأسبوع.

يُقال إن ساكا من بين أقل اللاعبين ربحًا بين فريق آرسنال، حيث يحصل على ما يصل إلى 30 ألف جنيه إسترليني أسبوعيًا.

ويحرص آرسنال على ربط ساكا بصفقة جديدة في ملعب الإمارات، مع إصرار أرتيتا على أن الأمر على وشك الإنجاز.

وقال أرتيتا في تصريحات مقتضبة نشرتها صحيفة “مترو” الإنجليزية: “سنحاول، وكلانا لدينا نفس النية، هذه مسألة وقت”.

Newcastle fans slam Sean Longstaff v Leeds

Some Newcastle United fans have been slamming the display of Sean Longstaff in their 1-1 draw at home to Leeds United on Friday night.

Raphinha gave the away side the lead with a cross which found its way into the far corner of the Magpies’ net, before Allan Saint-Maximin equalised at St. James’ Park after a mazy run with the ball.

While other players stood out for the home side, some members of the Toon Army felt as if Longstaff did not have his best of games, as he lost out on seven of his duels and recorded no successful dribbles (Sofascore).

He also failed to make a single interception or cross, and lost possession on 12 different occasions in the match, giving him a measly 6.7 overall rating on Sofascore, the joint-second lowest out of any of his teammates to have started the clash.

These Newcastle fans on Twitter slammed the 23-year-old’s performance on Twitter, with one supporter even going as far as to claim that Longstaff was ‘hopeless’ last night:
