After an unforgettable nine-year spell at Liverpool, Mohamed Salah is on the verge of writing a new chapter in his illustrious career.

Turkish Super Lig side Trabzonspor have officially confirmed that they have opened negotiations with the Egyptian superstar, with club officials expecting Salah to arrive in Türkiye for his medical before completing the move.

It’s official! Hervé Renard is back as the head coach of Côte d’Ivoire, marking a sensational return to one of Africa’s biggest football nations.

Renard is no stranger to African football. Widely regarded as one of the continent’s greatest coaches, the charismatic Frenchman has built a reputation for transforming teams into champions.

The walls appear to be closing in on FIFA President Gianni Infantino.

According to multiple reports, Infantino is set to hold a crucial meeting with FIFA staff and senior officials in Rabat, Morocco, as he battles the fallout from the collapse of his controversial World Cup investment proposal.

The emergency meeting comes at a time when opposition to the FIFA president appears to be gathering momentum. Several influential football stakeholders have distanced themselves from the failed plan, while criticism of FIFA’s governance has continued to grow.

There are versatile footballers… and then there is Adji Ndiaye.

The young Senegalese star has achieved something incredibly rare by representing her country in two completely different positions—as a striker and as a goalkeeper.

In September 2023, Ndiaye featured as a goalkeeper for Senegal’s senior national team in a WAFCON qualifier against Mozambique. Just 12 days later, she was deployed as a striker for Senegal’s U-20 team in the FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup qualifiers and even found the back of the net against Guinea. That remarkable achievement earned her recognition from the International Federation of Football History & Statistics (IFFHS) as one of football’s most unique stories.

The opposition to FIFA’s proposed $20 billion investment plan continues to grow, with CONCACAF becoming the latest confederation to reject the proposal.

In a statement, CONCACAF said it does not support FIFA’s plan to create a new commercial entity that would own the rights to the FIFA World Cup and other competitions before selling minority stakes to private investors. The confederation stressed that football’s long-term interests must take priority over short-term financial gains and called for greater transparency and consultation before any decision is made.

UEFA and its 55 member associations have unanimously announced that they will boycott the FIFA World Cup and all other FIFA competitions if FIFA proceeds with its controversial plan to sell stakes in its competitions to private investors.

The row stems from FIFA’s proposal to create FIFA Forward Enterprise (FFE), a new company valued at $20 billion that would manage the commercial rights of the FIFA World Cup and other FIFA tournaments. FIFA intends to sell up to 20% of the company to outside investors, raising billions of dollars that it says will be used to expand football development worldwide.

Brazilian football icon Neymar Jr. has once again made it clear that he has no plans to return to international football, insisting that his journey with the Seleção has come to an end.

The 34-year-old, who stepped away from the national team after Brazil’s disappointing exit from the 2026 FIFA World Cup, says he is at peace with his decision and believes it is time for the next generation of Brazilian stars to lead the five-time world champions.

Nigeria’s Goodness Nwachukwu has once again etched her name into the history books after setting a new world record in the Women’s F42/F44/F61/F64 Para Discus at the 2026 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow.

The Nigerian para-athlete produced a sensational throw of 39.66 metres, breaking the world record and storming to the gold medal in a dominant display. It is yet another remarkable achievement for one of Nigeria’s finest para-athletes.

Football’s governing body, FIFA, is facing mounting criticism over a controversial proposal that could fundamentally change the commercial future of the FIFA World Cup.

The plan would see FIFA create a new company, FIFA Forward Enterprise (FFE), to manage the commercial rights of the FIFA World Cup and other FIFA competitions. The company would be valued at $20 billion, with FIFA seeking to raise up to $4.2 billion by selling minority, non-controlling stakes to long-term private investors while retaining full control of football governance and competitions.

Late **Amir Angwe**, was a talented Nigerian striker whose passion, courage, and commitment to football continue to be remembered decades after his untimely passing.

Angwe made his name with **BCC Lions of Gboko**, where he played a key role in one of the club’s greatest achievements. He famously scored the opening goal in the **1990 African Cup Winners’ Cup final** against Tunisia’s Club Africain, helping BCC Lions secure one of Nigerian club football’s most memorable continental triumphs.

The transfer window is heating up, with clubs across Europe spending big ahead of the new season. Here are some of the headline moves:

Morgan Rogers

Aston Villa ➜ Chelsea (£117m)

The biggest transfer of the summer so far, with Chelsea making Rogers the focal point of their new-look attack.

Elliot Anderson

Nottingham Forest ➜ Manchester City (£116m)
