With the opening of the Chinese Super League (CSL) winter transfer window, news about transfers has been pouring in. As the reigning champions of the CSL, Harbor FC has been particularly active with transfer rumors. According to the latest report from "Sports Weekly," Harbor FC has essentially secured Matheus Vital, the tough midfielder from Brazilian club Cruzeiro, pending an official announcement. It is reported that as early as before Christmas, Harbor FC had contact with Matheus Vital. At the time, many teams were pursuing him, and he was once close to transferring to a Mexican club. However, Harbor FC ultimately won Vital's favor with their advantages and sincerity. Vital was not included in the list of players who traveled to the United States for training last weekend and has been listed among the team's 10 players set to leave. Notably, it is said that his transfer fee is less than 400,000 euros. If this is true, considering his performance in the Brazilian league, it would be a great deal. Harbor FC has effectively bought a big treasure at a bargain price. After the 2024 season, Harbor FC quickly identified Vital as a key target for recruitment. Vital is only 26 years old, in his prime. As a versatile midfielder, he can play as a central midfielder, attacking midfielder, and even on the wing, with very comprehensive skills and strong tactical adaptability, capable of injecting new vitality into Harbor's midfield creativity. According to sources, the Harbor coaching staff prefers to have Vital replace Chi Tadini, taking on a role similar to…

The resignation of Deschamps from his position as head coach of the French team was unexpected for many fans, especially since he led France to victory in the 2018 World Cup. After their loss to Argentina in the final of the Qatar World Cup, where they finished second, Deschamps received a contract extension with the French team until the 2026 World Cup. However, his sudden resignation has come as a surprise. Those who have been following the recent turmoil within the French team know that Deschamps' resignation is due to conflicts with several star players within the team. Previously, Deschamps did not call up Mbappe for two consecutive national team training sessions, which was surprising given that Mbappe has been a leader within the French team. He continuously scored goals to help France fight against Argentina until extra time in the 2022 World Cup and became the captain of the French team after the tournament. However, Deschamps did not include the captain in the national team matches, indicating that there were intense internal conflicts between Deschamps and some of the players. These star players, who do not listen to his commands and often form small groups in the locker room, have made Deschamps decide that he no longer wants to continue coaching the French team. It seems that after Deschamps' resignation, Mbappe will carry the blame. Mbappe has long wanted Zidane to replace Deschamps as the head coach of the French team, and now it seems that his wish has been fulfilled.

Mbappe had a fierce conflict with France's head coach Deschamps this year. The two have also had multiple conflicts within the national team, leading to Mbappe publicly questioning Deschamps' choices and expressing his desire to return to training and playing for the French team. However, it now appears that the superstar has emerged victorious in the battle against Deschamps, who has announced his resignation.

In the early hours of today, while the European top 5 leagues are temporarily on a break for the 2024/25 season, football fans witnessed a night filled with both joy and sorrow in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The Spanish Super Cup semi-finals saw Real Madrid face off against Mallorca, competing for a spot in the final. Meanwhile, in the Saudi league, Cristiano Ronaldo led Al Nassr at home against Al Kawkab. Additionally, in the Turkish Super League, Jose Mourinho's Fenerbahce challenged Kasimpasa away from home, with mixed fortunes for each team. Real Madrid 3-0 Mallorca Real Madrid has recently shown a resurgence in form, remaining unbeaten in seven consecutive matches across various competitions. They have overtaken Barcelona and Atletico Madrid in La Liga to top the standings, becoming strong contenders for the title. The chemistry between Mbappe, Vinicius, and Bellingham is deepening.

Fans of Cristiano Ronaldo are well aware that the 2022 World Cup was the year when the gap between Messi and Ronaldo widened significantly. While Messi triumphed in the Qatar World Cup, Ronaldo suffered an unexpected elimination against Morocco. After the match, Ronaldo was visibly distraught, breaking down in tears in the player's tunnel. It was clear that Ronaldo realized he would never have another chance to win the World Cup title, which is why his reaction was so emotional. Additionally, during the 2022 World Cup, the Portuguese national team experienced a significant internal conflict. Ronaldo found himself on the bench during a game, and afterward, he expressed his dissatisfaction. This led to the resignation of coach Fernando Santos. Rumors circulated among fans that Ronaldo had demanded the dismissal of coach Santos, leading to widespread criticism of the star player. However, in a recent interview, Santos clarified the situation: "Ronaldo respected my decision to bench him, and we still maintain contact and communication. There were no major conflicts between us, contrary to what external rumors suggested." Santos' revelation as the former coach has shed light on the matter, revealing that Ronaldo, despite his reluctance to be a substitute, was willing to make sacrifices for the team. He accepted the situation, showing that he was not the instigator of the internal strife within the Portuguese team. Even at the age of 40, Ronaldo remains capable of being the starting forward for the Portuguese national team, demonstrating his continued efforts and contributions on the field.

In the third round of the Spanish King's Cup, Real Madrid has certainly given Minella a lesson. In this match, Real Madrid crushed their opponents with an overwhelming 5-0 scoreline, easily advancing to the next round in what can only be described as a "domination" with no suspense whatsoever. From the outset, Real Madrid demonstrated their formidable strength, with the players leaving Minella with hardly any opportunity to counterattack. It was truly a classic case of "dimensional reduction strike." The match started with Real Madrid quickly finding the net. In the 5th minute, Dias' cross was mis-cleared by the Minella defender, and Valverde, standing in front of the goal like a rabbit waiting to be caught, easily scored with a single kick, putting Real Madrid ahead 1-0. This was Valverde's first goal in the King's Cup, and his smile bloomed as well, indicating that this goal had put him in a great mood. Real Madrid continued to unleash their firepower in the following game. In the 13th minute, Fran Garcia delivered a precise cross, and Camavinga leapt high at the back post, heading the ball into the net, quickly expanding the score to 2-0 for Real Madrid. This goal was not only Camavinga's personal achievement but also marked the second time since 1989 that Real Madrid had scored two goals within just 13 minutes of an away game in the King's Cup. It was as if Minella had no response, and it seemed as though they were already gasping for breath at the start of the match. However, Real Madrid's…

After Deschamps announced that he would leave the team after the 2026 World Cup, journalist Duroc from L'Équipe wrote, "This is a beautiful decision and a good opportunity for the French team!" Why are French media happy about Deschamps' departure after coaching the French team for 14 years? Became a Target After the European Championship After the French Football Federation announced the renewal of the contract with the French team in 2023, this decision triggered huge controversy. When asked if they had considered Zidane, French Football Federation President Le Graët said, "We have never considered letting Deschamps leave. Zidane will definitely not coach the French team, and I won't even answer his call." Le Graët's remarks aroused public outrage, and French Sports Minister Castella even said, "Such disrespectful remarks are too disgraceful, offending this football legend and all of us." At the same time, Le Graët's remarks also put more pressure on Deschamps. However, France's performance at the 2024 European Championship was quite mediocre, ending in the semi-finals, while the French team only scored 4 goals in 6 European Championship matches, including 2 own goals and 1 penalty kick, creating a new low in international tournament goal scoring in 12 years. With attacking players such as Mbappé, Griezmann, Mouani, and Dembélé, the French team averaged only 9.5 shots per game, far lower than other title contenders. After the European Cup elimination, L'Équipe pointed out, "Deschamps' conservative tactics are outdated, and the French team needs to change." In fact, at the post-match press conference, a reporter sharply asked, "Your contract still…

Justice may be late, but it will never be absent! In 2023, the organizer of Messi's visit to China, Hongqiao Group, once again issued a statement, saying that "without Messi's strong support and active participation, it would be difficult for this match to take place." The group also stated that "Messi's friendly attitude towards China is not only reflected in his enthusiastic response to Chinese fans, but also in his willingness to contribute to the promotion of sports and cultural exchanges between China and Argentina. Originally, according to the contract, Messi only needed to play for 45 minutes." At this moment, you should pay attention to the fact that according to their contract with Messi, he only needed to play for 45 minutes, but Messi played the whole game and even led the team around the field to thank the fans and actively interacted with them. With his actual actions, he demonstrated his high professional qualities and dedication to the spirit, bringing an unparalleled and spectacular football match to the Chinese audience. Moreover, after the game, Messi's Instagram account specially posted a message saying "Thank you to all the Chinese fans." In fact, this is also secretly helping us promote Chinese football culture, but all of this has been destroyed by groundless rumors and smears, which have ruined our village's image and possibly the newly established football culture. Do you still remember if there was such a grand football event before Messi's visit to China? No! It has been a long time since there was such a grand football event.…
