French star has an agreed situation with Real Madrid, from Spain
|
Kylian Mbappé, one of the brightest stars in world football, shared significant news on his social networks this Friday (10). In an emotional video, the player revealed that he will not renew his contract with Paris Saint-Germain at the end of this season. His next match at Parque dos Príncipes, scheduled for this Sunday (12), will be his farewell to the local fans.
Although Mbappé's fate has not yet been officially confirmed, everything indicates that his transfer to Real Madrid is imminent and according to international sources, the club and the player have already arranged everything.
The official announcement is expected to take place after the end of the European season, including the Champions League final, in which Real Madrid is involved. If the move comes to fruition, Mbappé will be alongside Vini Jr in the Spanish club's attack.
During his time at PSG, Mbappé left his mark with an exceptional performance. In 306 games, he scored 255 goals and contributed 96 assists, being a key player in winning 14 titles for the club, including six Ligues One, three French Cups, three French Super Cups and two French League Cups. Furthermore, the player finished runner-up in the UEFA Champions League in the 2019/20 season.
Before his departure, Mbappé will have one last chance to add another trophy to his collection. He will play in the French Cup final on May 25th against Lyon, looking to end his journey at PSG with another title to crown his time at the club.
Manchester City midfielder expresses concerns over tight schedule
|
Belgian player Kevin De Bruyne, one of Manchester City's main names, made scathing criticisms of the new format of the Club Super World Cup, a competition that will be played in 2025 and will feature the participation of 32 teams, including Brazilians Flamengo, Fluminense and Palmeiras. The tournament, which will have a similar format to the World Cup, did not please the player due to the overload of games and the impact on the athletes' calendar.
In a press conference, De Bruyne expressed his dissatisfaction with the short interval between the end of the Club World Cup and the start of the Premier League season. "The problem will come when the Club World Cup ends. We will only have three weeks between the final and the first round of the Premier League. There are three weeks to take a vacation and prepare to play more than 80 games. Maybe it will work this year, but it will be a problem the following year", warned the player.
The Belgian midfielder's concern extends to the increasing number of matches that athletes need to play in various competitions throughout the season, affecting performance so much regarding the physical well-being of the players.
De Bruyne also criticized FIFA and UEFA for not listening to the concerns of the players and their associations: “The PFA (Professional Players Association) in England and unions in other countries tried to find solutions. The problem is that UEFA and FIFA play more matches, and we tried to say something, but no solution was found. They don't care. It seems that money speaks louder than players", he said.
FIFA has already announced the dates of the Club Super World Cup, which will begin on June 15, 2025 and will conclude on July 13 of the same year. The competition promises to bring together great teams from different continents, providing an unprecedented format with 32 participants.
Brazilian clubs Flamengo, Fluminense and Palmeiras guaranteed a place in the tournament as they were the last champions of the Copa Libertadores da América, with Flamengo winning the title in 2022.

Last Wednesday (4), Flamengo held the seventh edition of the Sangue Rubro-negro campaign, at the Gávea headquarters. Hemorio's partner team was at the Gávea headquarters, from 10am to 3pm, collecting blood in the playground's party room. Athletes, employees and associates were able to donate and make a difference: each bag of blood can save up to four lives.
In addition to encouraging blood donation, the campaign also sought to raise awareness about the importance of this act of generosity and how it can save lives. “The partnership with Flamengo Social Responsibility is very important. More than attracting donors, this action seeks to awaken civic and social sentiment, ensure greater dissemination and demystify fears. It is an extremely educational and important action for maintaining stocks”, declared Dr. Renata de Almeida, a Hemorio doctor present at the action.
Blood donation is essential for health units to continue serving patients undergoing treatments and surgeries. The only way to guarantee the blood supply is through voluntary donations.
To donate blood, you must have an official identification document with photo, original or certified copy; be between 16 and 69 years old; be fed and in good health; weigh more than 50 kg; not be pregnant or breastfeeding.

Italian coach talks about penalties, positioning on the field and coexistence between players
|
In recent days, Real Madrid has been the subject of discussions involving two of its main players: Kylian Mbappé and Vinícius Júnior. The relationship between the athletes became the focus of attention, especially after a period of low productivity for the French striker at the Merengue club.
Recently, a new controversy gained prominence in the Spanish media after Vinícius Júnior took a penalty against Las Palmas. The press questioned Mbappé's possible lack of protagonism, which generated speculation about possible tension between the players. Faced with doubts, coach Carlo Ancelotti decided to speak out to clarify the situation.
In a press conference, Ancelotti stated that the relationship between Mbappé and Vini Jr. behind the scenes at Real Madrid has been excellent. The coach minimized speculation and highlighted that the team has maintained a good offensive performance.
“It hasn't been a problem because we scored goals in every game,” said Ancelotti, reassuring fans regarding the supposed rivalry between the two stars.
Ancelotti also addressed the issue of the positioning of players on the field, highlighting that there will be alternation during matches, but that the left wing continues to be the preferred position of Vinícius Júnior, Real Madrid's number 7.
Regarding penalty kicks, the Italian coach reiterated that both Mbappé and Vini Jr. have the responsibility to take penalties when necessary. However, Ancelotti believes that the players themselves must decide on the field, demonstrating their confidence in the squad.
“I trust my players a lot and they know what to do”, concluded Ancelotti, putting an end to speculation about a possible internal dispute.
