It has become a common theme in recent months for footballers to swap the comfort of European football with the sportswashed riches of the Middle East.
Jadon Sancho and Erik Ten Hag have had a week to sort out the scenario that played out in public last Sunday.
Former US national team coach Bruce Arena has resigned from Major League Soccer club New England Revolution after a league investigation into allegations of "insensitive and inappropriate remarks," MLS said in a statement on Saturday. Arena, the country's most successful coach, had been placed on administrative leave on July 30, while the league conducted a review into the allegations. No specific details of the charges have been made public. "As a result of the investigation which confirmed certain of these allegations, should Arena wish to pursue future employment within MLS, he must first submit a petition to the Commissioner," the league said in a statement.
Defending European champions Italy drew 1-1 with North Macedonia in a Euro 2024 qualifier on Saturday to suffer a blow in their hopes of making it to next year's finals from Group C where leaders England took a valuable point in a 1-1 away draw against Ukraine. England lead the group on 13 points with Ukraine on seven. Italy and North Macedonia both have four points. Italy next face a crucial qualifying test against Ukraine on Tuesday. Luciano Spalletti took charge of Italy for the first time following Roberto Mancini's shock resignation but his team flopped against the side which dumped them out of the last World Cup in the play-offs.
Despite missing Lionel Messi, Inter Miami moved within six points of the playoff positions in Major League Soccer with a 3-2 win over Sporting Kansas City on Saturday. Messi was one of eight Inter Miami players away on international duty, but Gerardo "Tata" Martino's team showed their strength in depth as they extended their unbeaten run in all competitions to 12 games. With Miami battling to rise from their pre-Messi position at the bottom of the Eastern Conference into the top nine, they know they have little room for error but their night began poorly.
“To me, a genius is someone with a brilliant mind who has had great accomplishments in a challenging field, and changed the world in some meaningful way. As vague as this definition may seem, the essence of genius is limitless. There appear to be no bounds to what geniuses can accomplish. To define it much further, is to limit something that is supposed to be limitless.” (I. C. Robledo).
Japan humiliated Euro 2024 hosts Germany 4-1 in a friendly international on Saturday, piling the pressure on struggling coach Hansi Flick who defiantly insisted he remains the right man for the job. Japan, who also contributed to Germany's group stage exit at the World Cup with a 2-1 win in Qatar last year, scored twice in each half. The defeat raises more questions over Flick's future, nine months out from Germany hosting the European Championships. A "brutally disappointed" Flick refused to back down after the game.
Italy's chances of defending their European Championship crown suffered a blow on Saturday after a 1-1 away draw at North Macedonia in Euro 2024 qualifying. Enis Bardhi smashed in a free-kick for the hosts with nine minutes remaining in the Group C clash in Skopje on Luciano Spalletti's debut as Azzurri coach. Spalletti took charge of the national team last month following Roberto Mancini's shock resignation and his team flopped against the side which dumped Italy out of the last World Cup in the play-offs.
