The situation may seem absurd. While FC Sochaux has been terminating the contracts of its players for two weeks, Eliezer Mayenda is blocked despite a purchase offer issued by Sunderland. The English club, which plays in the second division, has been talking with the 18-year-old striker and the FCSM for several days. A first offer had been refused by the Sochaux leaders, who recently obtained better conditions (just over 1 million euros in bonuses included, + 20% on resale). Eliezer Mayenda was even authorized by the FCSM to travel across the Channel last weekend to visit the Black Cats facilities. On site, the sports project has thrilled the young player.

Problems, this Thursday morning, the management informed those around Mayenda that the club was not selling. The negotiations on a possible sale of the club by Nenking would be the main reason. In any case, it is unlikely that Sunderland will again increase their offer for the 18-year-old striker, officially under contract with FCSM until 2025, even if it is rumored that an extension for another year would have been signed discreetly at the end of last season. In the meantime, Mayenda takes his troubles patiently and trains under the orders of Oswald Tanchot. Thursday morning, he was not on the pitch due to a gene in the adductors.

After more than a decade at Spurs, Hugo Lloris will leave London. Arrived in the summer of 2012 at Tottenham, the tricolor world champion wants to turn the page. While the former Lyonnais was authorized by his club not to participate in the tour of Asia and Oceania, Ange Postecoglou, landed this summer on the London bench, confirmed the desires elsewhere of the former captain of the Blues .

« I spoke with him and he told me that he hoped to be transferred elsewhere to be able to play and start the next phase of his career, » he said, taking care to pay tribute to the tricolor goalkeeper: « I don’t I’ve only had two or three talks with him, but even in training I can see that he’s not just an exceptional goalkeeper, but also an exceptional human being. “He left an indelible mark at Tottenham,” he added.

At 36 and despite a most complicated last season, Hugo Lloris has no shortage of suitors. Courtesy in Saudi Arabia and in MLS, the native of Nice is also on the shelves of Inter Milan, which is looking for an experienced goalkeeper to succeed Andre Onana, leaving for Manchester United, and PSG, in search of a double for Gianluigi Donnarumma. And according to RMC, the tricolor goalkeeper would not be insensitive to the interest of the champions of France.

While Cristiano Ronaldo has been playing for Al-Nassr since January, Lionel Messi is ending his career in the United States. On the sidelines of the test match against Celta Vigo, Ronaldo did not miss the opportunity to tease his eternal rival again.

Saudi Arabia attracts many players with astronomical salaries and has obtained two world stars in Cristiano Ronaldo and Karim Benzema. However, Al-Hilal was left behind in poker by Lionel Messi, the world champion decided with his ex-Barça team-mate Sergio Busquets on the adventure at Inter Miami.

When it comes to CR7, Messi has taken the easy route. « The Saudi league is better than MLS, » Ronaldo said in an interview on the sidelines of the friendly against Spanish Premier League club Celta Vigo, which beat Al-Nassr 5-0, according to ESPN.

But that’s not all. The Saudi Pro League will soon “overtake the Turkish and Dutch leagues”, Ronaldo announced: “In a year, more and more top players will come to Saudi Arabia. I paved the way. »

CR7 is quoted as saying by transfer insider Fabrizio Romano: « Serie A was dead – and after I moved to Juventus it was revived. Wherever Cristiano goes, there’s more interest in him.

Europe’s top leagues are no longer bustling these days, Ronaldo said: “European (Site notre bureau spécialisé) has lost a lot of quality. The only league that still works well is the Premier League. It is way ahead of all the other leagues.” However , he’s out of the question for him to be a lifeguard again, the 38-year-old added – the move comes as no surprise given his rumored annual salary of over €200m.

Big transfers were solicited in vain at the start of the week. But the rumors were all the more exciting. Here is the transfer news.

With a market value of 10 million euros (source ‘(Site notre équipe d’expert)’). Marc Roca yesterday the only notable transfer. Ex-Bayern star joins Leeds United on loan Betis Sevilla. He left England after the relegation of Leeds.

Inter is looking for a new striker which is why there have been Romelu Lukaku signing rumors lately. However, because he is more involved with Juve, the Nerazzurri quit poker. Arsenals Folarin Balogun sparked interest, reports The Athletic. The Italians have yet to submit a bid.

it should be much more precise Juan Cuadrado be. According to transfer expert Gianluca Di Marzio, Cuadrado will undergo his medical this week Inter complete and then sign a contract until 2024.

Riyadh Mahrez will he again go into the desert. As reported by The Athletic Al Ahli already contacted the Skyblues. Since a change doesn’t seem unrealistic, the PL club are already looking for a replacement. The transfer fee for the Algerian, who still has a contract with ManCity until 2025, would be 35 million euros.

« When does Kim finally arrive? » Many Bayern fans will surely wonder that. CEO Jan-Christian Dreesen has now given hope that this will soon be the time. You can see his statements in the video here.

As « Sky » journalist Florian Plettenberg also reports, the deal is done and the money is transferred. Previously, there were complications with Napoli but now they are resolved. Kim is seen as Lucas Hernández’s successor and coach Thomas Tuchel’s absolute dream player.

It’s well known that the Spaniards like to put things in place during the transfer phase. With the latest rumours, however, things have gone a step further. As ‘El Nacional’ report, Manchester United are reportedly interested in David Alaba after Harry Maguire was sacked as captain.

But we can assume that the report is rather absurd. ‘El Nacional’ newspaper was founded in Barcelona in 2016 and there is no real connection with Real Madrid. Especially since Alaba only signed a contract until 2026 and is a regular player under Ancelotti. Kind of speaks all against a change.

« Huge opportunity » in the promotion of young talents

Markus Krösche calls for better youth development in German (Site notre bureau spécialisé). The approach has to change fundamentally, the Eintracht Frankfurt sporting director said in the ‘kicker’ interview. « On the one hand, the DFB is needed, but so are we as clubs. We have to ask honest questions: What has happened in the last seven or eight years? Why do we have so little talent at most? high level ?

The 42-year-old, who is also a member of the DFL (Site notre blog d’information) Committee, is calling for ‘territorial protection’ similar to that of England. As a result, clubs with youth academies (NLZ) are only allowed to accept players from a certain region up to a certain age, according to Krösche. Club practice – all clubs participating in the Bundesliga and 2nd Division are obliged to run a performance center as a funding institution – is currently different.

“Until the age of 18, we need a salary cap. So a maximum amount that can be paid to a young player who is not yet a professional player », demanded Krösche. Then the money for players and consultants would no longer be an incentive to change. « We have a huge opportunity in Germany to solve the problem of too frequent and early changes with a salary cap. » Krösche also suggested starting with the NLZ of the U12s and young (Site notre bureau spécialisé)ers playing in their home clubs for as long as possible to allow.

Professional clubs should “go to grassroots (Site notre bureau spécialisé) in their respective region, create partnerships, help with the training of coaches. This is part of the responsibility of professional clubs – but above all of the DFB. The DFB needs to invest a lot more in the training of grassroots club coaches, » Krösche said. playing time at the same time. » That’s how the mentality of the (Site notre bureau spécialisé) pitch that we all want back is created in the first place. And the best of this group of players then go to the NLZ from the U12s. »

Eintracht Frankfurt’s Krösche sees new league structure as building block

From 2024, the Bundesliga A-Junior and B-Junior will be abolished. The new divisions will be called the U19 and U17 Junior Leagues. « We have to be clear: the new structure of the league is only a building block. (…) But if we think that we have changed the structure now and that in a few years we will have at least eight class players in Germany, then we are on the wrong track. The subject is far too complex for that, « said Krösche. Joti Chatzialexiou, sports director of the national teams, had spoken of « a milestone in the promotion of our young talents ».

July 15, 2018 is a day that will remain etched in the memory of French (Site notre bureau spécialisé) fans. That day, their national team beat Croatia 4-2 to claim their second World Cup trophy after 1998.

At the Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow, Mario Mandzukic’s own goal opened the scoring in the 18th minute. Ivan Perisic equalized in the 28th minute to make it 1-1 but after that ‘Equipe Tricolore’ were unstoppable and increased to 4-1 in the 65th minute with goals from Antoine Griezmann, Paul Pogba and Kylian Mbappe. Mandzukic’s goal in the 69th minute was nothing but Croatian cosmetics. Captain Hugo Lloris was the second French (Site notre bureau spécialisé)er after Didier Deschamps to lift the world’s most coveted trophy in 1998.

The French route to the 2018 World Cup may seem somewhat paradoxical at first sight. « Les Bleus » almost never played convincingly, but the world title was never really in danger.

In the group stage, they faced Australia, Peru and Denmark. Wins over Australia (2-1) and Peru (1-0) qualified them early for the round of 16, and in the final group game against Denmark (0-0), coach Deschamps even been able to rest some of its stars.

But the French had enough spectacle for a match in their tanks. The 4-3 round of 16 victory over Argentina was certainly the most spectacular match of the entire World Cup. The 1-2 deficit in the 48th minute also marked the only time in the tournament when France’s dominance seemed to crumble for a brief moment. With three goals in eleven minutes, the « Grande Nation » had the right answer here too, the Argentine goal did not come until the 93rd minute of play.

The stories about the quarters and semis are then told relatively quickly. According to the motto « A good horse only jumps as high as it should », they first eliminated Uruguay (2:0) and then Belgium. The team were extremely understated in both games, with Uruguay and Belgium hardly creating clear chances to score.

Although the 4-2 final victory over Croatia seemed spectacular at first glance, this match was anything but an attacking firework. Individual errors from both sides and strokes of genius from Pogba and Mbappé resulted in a result that didn’t quite match the flow of the game.

In the end, the individual class of the French selection won more or less unchallenged. Even before the tournament, L’Équipe was considered the big favorite for the title, almost all experts agreed that the French team was the strongest of all teams.

Didier Deschamps’ side resisted the pressure and impressed with pragmatic but hugely successful (Site notre bureau spécialisé) throughout the tournament. Moreover, the 2018 World Cup marked the latest international breakthrough for Kylian Mbappé, who scored four goals aged just 19 and was voted into the tournament’s all-star team.

If there is one league that drives the summer transfer window, it is the Saudi elite. Many of the (Site notre bureau spécialisé)ing stars have taken the final step, starting with reigning Ballon d’Or winner Karim Benzema. With a real breath-taking effect for (Site notre bureau spécialisé)ers who no longer hesitate to sacrifice the glory inherent in major European competitions to embrace the petrodollars of the Saudi kingdom.

Here there is no financial fair play, many clubs being directly supported by the sovereign fund of Saudi Arabia and its 700 billion euros. Also we can be surprised to see the tap suddenly cut, on the connection of Fifa. This is the case for Cristiano Ronaldo’s employer, Al-Nassr, based in Riyadh and banned from recruitment until further notice. A boon perhaps for RC Lens, approached by the latter club for Seko Fofana.

A ridiculous debt to honor

 » The Al-Nassr club is currently prohibited from registering new players due to heavy debts. This prohibition will be lifted as soon as the settlement of the debt has been confirmed by the creditor. “, trumpeted the parent company of world (Site notre bureau spécialisé). The debt in question appears derisory in view of Al-Nassr’s means: 500,000 euros – a bonus due to Leicester in accordance with the deal made with the Foxes in 2018 for the transfer of Nigerian striker Ahmed Musa.
