The registration of Olmo by Barcelona has become a "New Year's joke" in La Liga and even the world football community. On January 1st, there is no longer any information about Olmo on the official website of La Liga - his information has been deleted due to his unsuccessful registration. In the summer of 2024, Olmo joined Barcelona for a transfer fee of 55 million euros. However, due to the salary cap, Barcelona was unable to register him. With Christensen out injured for four months, Barcelona freed up salary space to register Olmo for half a year, with the need to re-register before January 1, 2025. An incredible event occurred. On December 31, 2024, Barcelona failed to raise funds and could not register Olmo. Media outlets such as "Mundo Deportivo" revealed that Barcelona had three more days to handle Olmo's registration. However, this was not the case. Looking at the La Liga top scorers list on the official website, Olmo, who scored 5 goals in La Liga, is ranked 17th in the top scorers list. However, Olmo's avatar is black, while other players have photos. Clicking on Olmo's name, it clearly states: "We don't have any data on this player." In other words, Olmo is "untraceable." Another Barcelona player, Paul Victor, also has a "black avatar," and his information has been deleted. According to Olmo's contract, if he fails to register successfully, he can freely transfer away from Barcelona. If Olmo really leaves on a free transfer, how much will Barcelona lose? "Mundo Deportivo" calculated the cost. Barcelona spent 55…

According to the Italian newspaper "La Gazzetta dello Sport", Real Madrid is increasingly inclined to accept an offer and sell young player Nico Paz to Inter Milan. This decision is based on the team's personnel structure and the player's personal preferences, with a surprising price tag of 25 million euros. This season, Argentine youngster Nico Paz was sold by Real Madrid to Serie A promoted team Como for a low price of 6 million euros. After transferring to Serie A, Paz performed outstandingly, scoring 2 goals and assisting 3 times in 16 games, becoming the core of the team's tactics. Thanks to his excellent performance, Como successfully occupied the mid-table position in Serie A with hopes of relegation. Paz himself also made it into the Argentine national team and received playing opportunities. It is worth mentioning that in the limited time he played for the national team, Paz managed to get 1 assist, and the recipient of the assist was none other than the legendary football king, Messi, helping him complete a hat-trick. After the game, Messi highly praised this young brother, believing that he has the potential to support the future of Argentina. It is precisely because of such outstanding performances on the field that Paz has gained the favor of Serie A giants Inter Milan. The team's general manager Ausilio and vice-chairman Zanetti were sent to watch Paz's matches on site, listing him as an important transfer target. However, for Inter Milan, the real obstacle to acquiring Paz comes from Real Madrid. Although his ownership has already reached…

Cristiano Ronaldo, the superstar with extremely high attention in the world football arena, is always the focus wherever he goes, and every word of his is eagerly discussed by people. After arriving in the Saudi league, Ronaldo has not been able to fulfill his wish to lift the championship trophy. Some believe that he is taking a high salary to retire in Saudi Arabia, working without exerting himself; others think that he is too old, with a significant decline in competitive level, making it difficult for him to contribute to the team. However, anyone who has watched Ronaldo's matches will not have such thoughts. Compared to many players who are gold-digging in Saudi Arabia, the 40-year-old Ronaldo is undoubtedly the most hardworking and efficient one. His goal-scoring efficiency on the field is quite high, and such performance is rare throughout the world football arena. The Saudi league is not only about Al-Nassr, as Al-Hilal, the arch-rival of Al-Nassr, also has many stars like Neymar, Misha, and Kanté, who were once prominent figures in European football. It is precisely because of the existence of Al-Hilal that Ronaldo's dream of winning the championship has been repeatedly hindered. In the blink of an eye, Ronaldo's contract with Al-Nassr has only half a year left. Although the media reported that both sides are about to complete the renewal, Al-Nassr's inability to win the league championship has become the biggest hidden danger. Recently, Portuguese media reported that Ronaldo is eager to join a team capable of winning the championship next season. Among the many potential…

At the beginning of 2025, let's talk about a grudge match filled with gunpowder in the Serie A arena. The protagonists of this grudge are Inter Milan coach Simone Inzaghi and Atalanta coach Gian Piero Gasperini. The "century" confrontation between the two famous coaches, is it a tactical competition or a continuation of personal grievances? The Italian Super Cup semi-finals have attracted the attention of more than 180 broadcasting agencies worldwide. Before the game, the Italian media reported extensively on the story behind the game: Inzaghi and Gasperini have had a long-standing feud, their conflicts far exceeding ordinary tactical debates and verbal exchanges, evolving into a series of jaw-dropping events. Gasperini's dislike for Inter Milan is well-known, which stems from his short stint coaching Inter in 2011. After only coaching five games, he was sacked, leaving him with a deep shadow and becoming one of the reasons why he gets particularly excited every time he faces Inter in the future. But a deeper reason may lie in the unresolved grievances between him and Inzaghi. "The curtain of passion": the prelude to the grudge In 2017, Lazio coached by Inzaghi defeated Atalanta coached by Gasperini 2:1. During the game, both Inzaghi and Gasperini were sent off with red cards, and after the game, they even engaged in a fierce exchange of words, with a strong sense of gunpowder. Gasperini accused the referee of favoring Inzaghi, while Inzaghi retorted that Lazio had the advantage in the game, thus starting their war of words. "The missing video": the escalation of the conflict In…

The English Premier League season is already halfway through, with Arsenal, the Gunners, accumulating 36 points and ranking 3rd, lagging behind the league leaders, Liverpool, by as many as 9 points. It is no longer realistic to talk about the championship title. The young coach of Arsenal, Arteta, has stated that Arsenal has the weakest squad among the Premier League teams. Yes, he did say that! Perhaps it's the funniest joke the fans have ever heard! Arteta's statement could be an attempt to shirk responsibility or perhaps a sign of running out of ideas. However, if he never had the talent in the first place, how can he claim to have exhausted it? Arsenal's total squad value is 1.16 billion euros, only slightly lower than Manchester City's 1.21 billion euros. How can the squad be described as weak when Liverpool's squad is valued at 968 million euros? The most devastating news for Arteta is that his most relied-upon player, Saka, has been injured. Saka scored 5 goals and provided 6 assists through dribbling in the 2024 Premier League, being the only player in the league to achieve at least 5 in both categories. Saka underwent surgery on his hamstring and will be out for an extended period. The recovery time from hamstring surgery typically depends on the location, type, and size of the tear. This time, Saka is expected to be out for 3 and a half to 4 months. At this critical juncture of the championship race, the Spanish coach claims the squad is weak, which might be a…

Recently, "Sky Sports Italy" has compiled a list of the top 18 teams with the fewest goals conceded in Europe's top five leagues in 2024. Arsenal from the Premier League ranked first with only 25 goals conceded in 36 games, while Inter Milan, the reigning Serie A champions, ranked second with 29 goals conceded in 37 games. Real Madrid, Bayer Leverkusen, and Paris Saint-Germain all tied for third with 33 goals conceded over the past year. As one of the teams with the second-fewest goals conceded in Europe's top five leagues last year, Inter Milan's defense is indeed reliable. The 36-year-old Archarbi is getting better with age, the 33-year-old De Vrij had the highest defensive success rate in the world last year, the 28-year-old Pavard is in his prime, the 27-year-old Bastoni is one of the top center-backs in today's football, the 24-year-old Bisek has made great strides on the field, and the versatile defender Damian is still trustworthy. Additionally, there is the 21-year-old young talent Palacios. The current defensive line of Inter Milan is undoubtedly one of the top levels in today's football. Although they boast one of the best defenses in today's football, the Nerazzurri face several hidden dangers with their backline, primarily the renewal issues with the two veterans known as the "Xuanming Elders." The 36-year-old Archarbi and the 33-year-old De Vrij will see their contracts with Inter expire this summer, and no substantive renewal negotiations have taken place between them so far. If Inter were to lose both Archarbi and De Vrij this summer, it would…

According to the latest reports, Premier League giants Liverpool and Manchester United will compete for Bournemouth left-back Milos Kerkes in January. The 21-year-old player transferred to the Cherries from AZ Alkmaar for a fee of 17.87 million euros in the summer of 2023. This Hungarian defender has been impressive this season at Bournemouth, achieving an 82% pass accuracy rate in the Premier League and averaging 4.4 interceptions per game. Additionally, Kerkez likes to make forward runs and deliver crosses into the box, which has resulted in him contributing 8 assists and 5 goals in 57 matches for Bournemouth. According to Caught Offside, both Liverpool and Manchester United are looking for a quality left-back in January, and Milos Kerkez is one of their top targets. However, it is reported that Bournemouth will demand 50 million pounds to part ways with the Hungarian player. Although Liverpool has two excellent left-backs in Robertson and Tsimikas, the former is already 30 years old. Head coach Arne Slot seems keen on signing Kerkez as a future reinforcement. Ruben Amorim's team is lacking in left-back options, with Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia also lacking form and fitness. Last season, both spent most of their time receiving treatment, and this season they have struggled to make an impact. This season, Shaw and Malacia have played in 3 and 5 club games respectively. So far, neither has scored for Manchester United. According to Caught Offside, other Premier League teams such as Chelsea, Arsenal, and Tottenham Hotspur are also monitoring Kerkez's situation. However, Manchester United and Liverpool are the…

Here is the translation of the article content into English: The year 2025 has arrived, and we look forward to Inter Milan continuing to bring joy to their fans. Attention Premier League big spenders, Inter Milan is willing to sell their substitute ace, Francesco Forte, for a price of 45 million euros. According to Italian media RadioRadio, Forte is dissatisfied with his current situation and hopes to get more playing opportunities. Inter Milan is willing to sell Forte, valuing him at 45 million euros. In the past four Serie A league matches, Inter Milan scored 3-1, 6-0, 2-0, and 3-0, respectively. Forte sat on the bench twice, came on late once, and only played for 10 minutes in another match. In the game where Inter Milan lost 0-1 to Bayer Leverkusen, Forte played for 66 minutes but performed unsatisfactorily. Forte's transfer initially faced some skepticism from Inter Milan fans, with some saying he was overpriced and just a younger version of Matias Vecino. Inter Milan spent 24 million euros to buy Vecino from Fiorentina, who eventually left as a free agent. Vecino played 127 times for Inter Milan, scoring 13 goals and providing 7 assists, but his tendency to make forward runs wasn't particularly favored by coach Simone Inzaghi. Forte shares some similarities with Vecino. In the 2022-2023 season, he played 37 times for Sassuolo, scoring 7 goals with no assists, and his passing and defensive abilities were average. Marotta has a good relationship with the Sassuolo management, and Inter Milan sent youth forward Andrea Murgia to Sassuolo in exchange…

On the first day of 2025, Shandong Taishan team experienced a large-scale personnel change. Pato announced his departure from Taishan team on his social account, although the team has not officially announced it, but this is obviously his own declaration of leaving the team. After Pato left, the personnel adjustment of Taishan team continued, and the team doctors Sandro, Tong Lei, Liao Lisheng, Marcel and others also confirmed to leave, which was regarded as an important move to marginalize Choi Kang-hee. In this winter, the contradiction between Choi Kang-hee and the club of Shandong Taishan team has been made public, and there is a tendency of continuous intensification. According to the insiders of the club, the contradictions between the two sides mainly focus on the introduction policy and player renewal. In terms of introduction, Choi Kang-hee tried hard to introduce some players, such as Pato, who joined the team after being affected by injuries and did not meet expectations, and were regarded as a failed introduction case by the club. In the list of winter window introduction, most of the candidates submitted by Choi Kang-hee were rejected by the senior management of the club, including many old players who were out of fashion, such as Zheng Dalun, whom he always appreciated very much. The club believed that these players could not enhance the strength of the team. The problem of player renewal is even more the fuse of the contradiction. Although the injuries continued, Choi Kang-hee still insisted on giving him a three-year contract brought by Jadeson, which caused great…
