What a fantastic achievement for Ronaldo – 900 goals!

I’m sure he will keep playing for some years and only he knows how long, but the end is not near yet and his performances remain excellent.

He’s a true footballing legend.

The transfer window closed a few days ago and we have heard many rumours already.

Starting from 2025 when Napoli can activate the option to extend the contract, the clause will reduce to €75m, which sends a very clear message to all the clubs still interested in Victor Osimhen.

In the last 24 hours, we had two stories related to Manchester United players that I was checking. One is Casemiro, because it’s not been an easy beginning of the season for him.

A poor game against Liverpool can happen, but Erik ten Hag decided to back him and support him after the game, saying he’s a serial winner. He’s a top professional. He’s going to be back at the…
