Liverpool in talks to sign £29.5m star, he’s prepared to agree Anfield move – Report
June 19, 2024 Ritayan Chatterjee 0 Comments newsnow
Liverpool are reportedly in talks over a deal to sign Feyenoord star, David Hancko this summer, as per Mundo Deportivo.

The 26-year-old has enjoyed a stellar time under Arne Slot at De Kuip Stadium after joining the club back in 2022. However, it appears following the Dutch boss’ move to Anfield, he is now willing to reunite with the Slovak at the Merseyside club.

News – Marca – Liverpool are on the ‘offensive’ to sign £59million star

Liverpool are interested in purchasing Hancko and have already held talks with Feyenoord to learn about the details of securing his signature.

The Slovak could be available for a fee of around £29.5m, however, MD states that Atletico Madrid and Leicester City have also expressed their interest in acquiring his service, so there is competition for the 19-time English champions.

However, Hancko is said to be crazy about Liverpool since childhood and that could help the Reds persuade the defender to move to Anfield this summer.

Former Dutch defender, Tim De Cler, believes the 26-year-old is ready to take the next step in his career and he is prepared to play for a club of Liverpool’s stature.

He said:

“I think he can easily handle a club just below the top six in Europe. Then I’m talking about a club like Atlético Madrid or Liverpool. He can certainly handle that.”

Hancko started for Slovakia against Belgium in the European Championship earlier this week and helped his side beat the Red Devils by keeping a clean-sheet.

The Feyenoord star is a 6ft 2in tall left-footed defender and excellent in defensive contributions. He is also comfortable playing out from the back so he could be a solid acquisition for Liverpool if they purchase him.

LIVERPOOL FC TRANSFER RUMOURS
Liverpool stunned as 21-year-old demands MORE money than Van Dijk, Alisson and Alexander-Arnold

50 MINS AGO
PETER STAUNTON
Liverpool have held talks with Spain sensation Nico Williams over a potential summer deal with the Athletic Club winger’s contract containing a €50 million release clause.

That’s according to the latest report in HITC, which also claims that Arsenal, Newcastle and Aston Villa have held discussions with representatives of the 21-year-old.

However, a complicating factor is the player’s desire to move to Barcelona as well as the forward’s mammoth personal terms.

LIVERPOOL BACK IN FOR EURO 2024 SENSATION AFTER WALKING AWAY FROM DEAL LAST SUMMER
3 hours ago by Peter Staunton
Premier League clubs have been informed of Williams’ salary demands of over £300,000 per week, which would put him just behind Mohamed Salah and the second highest-earning Liverpool player with the Egyptian on £350,000 a week.

That sum would break the current Anfield wage structure apart with captain Virgil van Dijk making £220,000 per week, Alisson on £210,000 per week and Trent Alexander-Arnold earning £180,000 per week.

It is unlikely that new transfer chiefs would go so high in salary negotiations with Van Dijk, Alexander-Arnold and Salah all out of contract next summer and conversations required with all three.

Salah could end up leaving this summer with Al-Ittihad of the Saudi Pro League interested in making the 32-year-old the face of the championship.

Williams made an incredible 19 assists for Athletic last season, across 37 matches in all competitions, scoring a further eight goals.

The homegrown winger was instrumental in the Basque side’s first major trophy win in some four decades, taking home the Copa del Rey crown alongside his brother, Inaki.

DIAZ OR WILLIAMS? BARCA’S DILEMMA
Barcelona have got Williams under consideration and also admire Luis Diaz – of Liverpool – to fill the left wing slot for new coach Hansi Flick.

However, the Catalans will require sales with both Raphinha and Ferran Torres earmarked for the exit.

It’s been previously reported that Brazil international Raphinha could be sacrificed in order to make room in the budget for Diaz and should he leave then Barca could have a decision to make between the Colombian and Williams.

If they decide to move for Diaz then Williams might have no other option than to consider a Premier League move with the Reds, runners-up Arsenal, Newcastle and Villa intending to pounce if Barca can’t get a deal done.

3 transfers for Manchester City to bolster attack alongside Savio
June 19, 2024
Manchester City managed to secure the Premier League crown for a fourth straight season despite facing continued stiff competition from Arsenal, as well as a rebound year from usual competitors Liverpool.

Already, Man City are set to welcome a top-class signing for the 2024/25 season, as they have signed 20-year-old left winger Savio to a 30 million euro deal from partner club Girona.

Savio was one of the best wingers in European football last season, shining for Girona as an elite dribbler with the ability to influence the final outcome of matches as a scorer or assist provider.

Manchester City signed a top young winger in the preceding transfer window, too, inking Jeremy Doku from Rennes in a transfer that will go down as one of the most underrated of the last summer market.

However, Man City may not be done making attacking moves, especially if the Julian Alvarez transfer rumors lead to the Argentinian star exiting the Etihad.

Here are three signings Manchester City could make this summer in order to further bolster their attack alongside the Savio acquisition from Girona.

AC Milan LB Theo Hernandez
Theo Hernandez is a defender and has become a top defensive player at the left back position, but he is mostly known for his ability to influence the attack.

The best left back in the world, Theo Hernandez fully took that title from Bayern Munich star Alphonso Davies during the 2022/23 season, and he has solidified that both in the 2023/24 campaign for AC Milan and will likely do the same during Euro 2024 if his display for France vs. Austria is anything to go off.

Capable of scoring brilliant solo goals from deep in his own half, Theo is a great progressor and has come a long way technically from his hilarious juggling mishap at his Real Madrid presentation.

With 39 goal contributions in his four seasons with AC Milan, Hernandez is good for 10 goals and assists per campaign, which is an extraordinary output from the left back position.

After completing nearly 88 percent of his passes in the 2023/24 Serie A season with two combined tackles and interceptions per game in the Champions League, Theo is in his prime and ready for the technical and defensive demands of Manchester City while offering a skill set that can make them more expansive.

PSV RW Johan Bakayoko
So many top clubs are going to be in on Johan Bakayoko, who could be the subject of a transfer battle between Premier League title contenders Manchester City and Liverpool.

Liverpool have already successfully gone to the PSV well before, nabbing Cody Gakpo in the winter 2023 transfer window, as the Dutchman has gone on to become a key player for the Reds.

Meanwhile, Manchester City have familiarity with Bakayoko’s Belgian national teammate Jeremy Doku, and the prospect of creating an axis of Bakayoko and Doku has to be tantalizing with the likes of Jack Grealish and Savio also options.

Bakayoko is a left-footed right winger, which is a rare commodity and a position Man City want to address this summer with Bernardo Silva getting older and the Riyad Mahrez exit still fresh.

Last season, Bakayoko scored 12 goals with 9 assists while averaging nearly 3 dribbles completed per game for PSV, establishing himself as one of the top wingers to watch in European football at the age of 21.

PSG RB Achraf Hakimi
Manchester City don’t just have eyes on an intriguing attacking left back with roots at Real Madrid, but they have also been linked to Kylian Mbappe’s supplying right back Achraf Hakimi.

The 25-year-old averaged a career-high 1.7 key passes per game for PSG last season while providing his typically solid progressive play down the right-hand side.

Hakimi has experience on both flanks and in the attack or defense, as he was used all over the pitch as a young player for Dortmund before winning the Scudetto with Inter Milan and then joining PSG.

Mbappe’s departure has cast some doubt on Hakimi’s future, with a return to Real Madrid rumored, but Hakimi may not want to be stuck behind Dani Carvajal; it’s why he pushed for a move to Inter instead of returning to Madrid after a wildly successful two-year spell in Dortmund.

PSG seems to be too small for Hakimi’s ambitions, as he has goals of winning the Champions League, just like his close friend Mbappe. If Real Madrid isn’t an option, Manchester City can offer the same clout and opportunity at winning the big one.

Pep Guardiola pulled me into his office in his first week at Man City – I didn’t expect what I saw

The heaviest defeat of Euro 2024 so far came on the opening night, when Germany flexed their muscles as home nation to dismantle a sorry Scotland side.

The man picking the ball out of his own net five times probably has more reason than any other player at the tournament to put things right in his second game, with Scotland goalkeeper Angus Gunn also looking to prove he was right to swap allegiances from England last year.

Gunn has previous of proving doubters wrong, having taken the leap to leave a comfortable position at Manchester City six years ago. But only after playing a key role in Pep Guardiola’s first pre-season in charge at the Etihad.

The goalkeeper had experienced a taste of senior football at City, shadowing the first team before Guardiola’s arrival, as well as working closely under Patrick Vieira for the Elite Development Squad, hailing the Frenchman as a key influence in his rise through the ranks. When Guardiola came in, Gunn was chosen to go on the pre-season tour.

“He [Vieira] was a very demanding coach and very particular on the training pitch,” Gunn remembers. “That few years that I had with him – I think he was there before Pep joined but, it was like a hidden thing around the club where everyone knew he was going to be there for the next few years. But the few years before, working with him really developed my game a lot.

“When Pep did come in, it was in the pre-season, he pulled me into the office and showed me clips of my games in the development squad, saying this is what he wants from his goalkeepers and for me to know that he’s seen clips of me when he wasn’t even here yet was pretty cool.

“It was surreal really, it was crazy. He obviously came in and I was on the preseason tour with them and it was actually before the first pre-season game. It was over in China and we played Dortmund. I ended up playing the second half in that game and I saved three penalties in the shootout afterwards.”

Angus Gunn saves a penalty for Manchester City against Borussia Dortmund in pre-season in Shenzhen, China.
Gunn would travel with City in the Champions League in Guardiola’s first year, acting as number three. “It was a really good learning year for me. Just to be in the background watching him coaching, the players in the dressing room and everything like that was [great],” he added.

“One side, I wasn’t playing a lot of football, but the other side just sitting there learning was probably pretty invaluable for me.”

Gunn went on loan to Norwich to get much-needed games under his belt, before a permanent £13.5m move to Southampton.

“I was gutted I did not get that one City appearance just to have it on my CV but never mind,” he told the Sun in 2019. “I understand why people leave. You only have to look at the Man City team and see the quality they have, so you know it will be very difficult. It is not a nice thing to leave anywhere but for your career it is necessary.”

Things at Southampton didn’t quite go to plan, but Gunn’s career has been kick-started by a 2021 move to Norwich. Two years later, he made the bold decision to switch international allegiances to Scotland, having represented England up to under-21 level and trained with Gareth Southgate’s team before the 2018 World Cup.

“I really enjoyed it [representing England],” he said. “When you’re getting older and progressing in your career, I felt it was good timing for me [switching to Scotland].

“I think I just started playing regularly [at Norwich] and putting good performances in and then met the manager from the national team and the things he had to say to me about the squad and what they wanted to do moving forward it was really exciting.

“The way its gone over the last year, qualifying for the Euros, it probably couldn’t have gone any better so I’m really happy with the decision.”

Gunn’s gamble paid off to the extent that he is a number one at the Euros rather than watching on from home, but he will need to call on all his memories from City to help Scotland turn around their fortunes and qualify for the last-16 – starting on Wednesday night against Manu Akanji’s Switzerland.

Gunn was reunited with Ilkay Gundogan from their time spent together at City.
It helps, then, that he still remembers exactly what it was like to train with the world’s best at the City Football Academy.

“Some days in training I felt I could not get near anything,” he said in his Sun interview. “It could be frustrating as the speed of their shots was unbelievable. That was a big part in my development, a season training there.

“Quality-wise Kevin De Bruyne was amazing. He would pick my top corners for fun. But the players are all top quality. At the time Aleksandar Kolarov was there and his strike is ridiculous. You did not want to get in the way of it. If he sees the keeper, he thinks, ‘Well, I will just try and kill him’.”

Guardiola Laughing As Most Important Arsenal Man Incredibly Tipped To Join Man City
Guardiola laughing as most important Arsenal man incredibly tipped to join Man City
Steve Pearson 1 hour ago

Manchester City have been tipped to solve a looming problem by snatching an Arsenal man they simply must not lose under any circumstance.

From an on-field perspective there remains very little that needs fixing or tweaking at Man City. Pep Guardiola’s side won the treble two seasons ago and followed that up by lifting their fourth Premier League title in a row last term.

Ageing stars such as Aymeric Laporte, Ilkay Gundogan and Riyad Mahrez have been replaced by younger and hungrier stars, with the likes of Josko Gvardiol, Matheus Nunes and Jeremy Doku refreshing the ranks.

However, there is an elephant in the room at the Etihad stadium and that relates to their manager’s contract status.

Guardiola’s existing deal with Man City has just one more season left to run. The Spaniard – widely regarded as one of the greatest managers in football history – has continually talked up an exit.

“Last year, after Istanbul (Champions League final), I said ‘it’s over, there’s nothing left’,” Guardiola said last month.

“But I have a contract and I start to think ‘no-one has done four [Premier League titles] in a row, why don’t we try?’. And now I feel it’s done, so what next?

“Now I don’t know what exactly the motivation is because it’s difficult to find it when everything is done.”

Guardiola subsequently poured more fuel on the fire when speaking to reporters after City’s latest Premier League triumph.

“The reality is I am closer to leaving than staying [after next season],” admitted the City boss.

Mikel Arteta backed to replace Pep Guardiola
If Guardiola does decide to walk away in 2025, he’ll bring his trophy-laden stint at the Etihad to a close at the nine-year mark. That is the same length of time his great rival Jurgen Klopp lasted at Liverpool before choosing to take a break from the game.

However, Guardiola’s primary rival over the past two seasons has been Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta who has worked wonders at the Emirates.

In conjunction with Edu, Arteta has bought exceptionally well in the market. His tactics have simultaneously made Arsenal rock solid at the back and lethal up front, while the club’s impressive mentality shift is down to the Spaniard too.

But according to former England international, Danny Mills, Arteta is the perfect candidate to replace Guardiola at Man City in 2025.

As cited by Goal, Mills believes Arteta’s past connection with Man City and Guardiola – having previously served as his No 2 – will make him the favoured candidate of Man City’s decision-makers.

Arteta can extend Man City dominance – Danny Mills
“Mikel Arteta is the best man to replace Pep Guardiola at Manchester City, without a shadow of a doubt,” declared Mills.

“He’s worked with Pep, he knows the way City play and he can come in with the same level of intensity as him.

“I think it will be a concern. It’s like trying to replace Jurgen Klopp, Arsene Wenger or Sir Alex Ferguson.

“The hierarchy at City have to be looking for a successor now and I’m sure they are. There are lots of coaches winning in the City Group for instance.

“It’s a concern for City but when you look at what they’ve done in the past, the senior figures they’ve brought in to manage the academy and recruitment, you have to put faith in them and hope that there is a good succession plan.”

It’s unquestionable Guardiola’s potential exit in 2025 would enhance Arsenal’s chances of becoming the new dominant force in English football.

However, seeing Arteta return to Man City to take Pep’s place would stop that power shift dead in its tracks.

Latest on Arteta contract extension with Arsenal
Arteta’s current contract with the Gunners is due to expire at the same time as Guardiola’s does at Man City – June 2025.

When speaking on Arteta’s future back in May, trusted reporter David Ornstein suggested the likeliest outcome is Arteta extends his stay in north London.

“I see a manager who appears to want to continue in this project,” Ornstein told The Athletic. “And a club who definitely do not want to lose him.

“My assumption is that they just need to sit down, have a conversation, get the numbers right, the vision, the project, and everything. Be on the same page.

“Then I’ve got nothing to suggest that they won’t continue [together].

“There’s definitely going to be interest in Mikel Arteta from elsewhere, now and in the future. We’ve already seen links to Barcelona and others.

“[But] this appears to be a very happy marriage, and no evidence to suggest it will not continue, although we don’t have any updates on talks just yet.”

Fabrizio Romano drops really exciting Ricardo Calafiori update for Liverpool fans amid ‘personal terms’ claim
NEWS TRANSFER RUMOURS

Fabrizio Romano has now suggested that Ricardo Calafiori’s potential move to Juventus is far from certain.

Bologna could prove seriously resistant to losing the Italian international owing to the nature of former boss Thiago Motta’s departure to The Old Lady this summer.

Despite securing an agreement on personal terms with the centre-back, the footballer could yet find himself shipped off abroad ‘for bigger money’.

“Thiago Motta and Ricardo Calafiori already agreed on personal terms with Juventus weeks ago but between Juventus and Bologna the situation is complicated,” the CaughtOffside columnist spoke on Playback.

“First of all, because Bologna were not so happy with how Motta joined Juventus. So the situation is quite tense between the two clubs. Also because Bologna believe that if the player can keep performing like this after a fantastic season at Serie A, and now at the Euros, maybe they can sell him abroad for bigger money.”

This comes amid reports of Liverpool’s interest in the 22-year-old footballer, as discussed by James Horncastle.

The Merseysiders are, in fact, one of several Premier League outfits to have enquired about the defender.

It’s absolutely exciting to hear about Liverpool casting their gaze over talents like Leny Yoro and Ricardo Calafiori.

Of course, it would be even more exciting to see Richard Hughes and Co. get one or more of these deals over the line.

The Bologna star has been absolutely exceptional at club level since Motta converted him from a rangey left-back to a centre-half. It seems he’s even taken that form to the Euros as Italy secured a 2-1 comeback over Albania.

He’ll cost us a pretty penny this summer, but if we’re willing to spend big on Yoro to snatch the Frenchman away from Real Madrid – we should be equally invested in the opportunity present with Calafiori.

Barnes insists ‘nothing will change’ for Foden in an England shirt after sharing similar experience
Joe Williams 13 hours ago

Phil Foden struggled to get into the match against Serbia.
John Barnes thinks Phil Foden will continue to have problems playing for England as they don’t play like Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City.

The attacking midfielder struggled to get into the Three Lions’ 1-0 victory over Serbia on Sunday with most of England’s good playing coming down their right-hand side.

Many believe Foden’s best position is just behind the striker as a number ten but realistically he will have to settle for playing out on the left for England, somewhere he has also played for Man City in the past.

Barnes sympathises with the Premier League Player of the Year as he too went through a similar experience under Sir Bobby Robson when playing for England and Liverpool.

And Barnes doubts Foden will become a star of Euro 2024 for England unless the Three Lions start playing like Man City or the attacker changes position.

Speaking on talkSPORT, Barnes said: “It’s like having an out-of-body experience. I went through something very similar.

 

How far will England go at Euro 2024?

Last-16 or quarter-finals
Group stage exit
“Sir Bobby Robson used to say to me, ‘We want you to play for England the way you play for Liverpool’.

“You know what I said to him? ‘If England played the way Liverpool do, then I would’.

“It’s the same for Foden. Whether you put Foden on the left, the middle or the right, unless England are going to play like Man City, nothing will change.

“The left-back for Man City is Josko Gvardiol. He’s not a left-footer. The way Man City play suits him.

“It doesn’t matter about using him, Anthony Gordon, Cole Palmer… unless England play the way their clubs play, it doesn’t matter. You’ll never get the best out of them.”

Barnes added: “If Jude Bellingham is going to be the No.10, the playmaker on the ball all the time, all Foden will be is a bit-part player. Work hard, defend, give the ball to Bellingham.

“Therefore, what is he doing there? It doesn’t matter what position he plays. The football, the tactics, the template of how they play, the way they move the ball… unless it’s going to be like Man City, you’ll never see the best of Foden.”

Cesc Fabregas suggested that Foden needs to take more responsibility in an England shirt and needs to “want it more than the rest”.

Fabregas said: “You see Jude [Bellingham] imposing himself, getting in the face of opponents, he oozes this class.

“He [Foden] needs to do that himself as well. A player of this class, level and talent at times doesn’t even need to be told by the coach what he needs to do.

“Phil needs to want it more than the rest and it showed that Jude Bellingham is a little bit above him in this regard.

“Foden needs to get that personality back and do what he does at Manchester City.”

TRANSFERSWinger expected to join Manchester City next month – Player’s representatives working on Etihad Stadium stayPublished: 15:00 on June 18th 2024 | Last Updated: 12:19 on June 18th 2024By Freddie Pye

Manchester City fans can expect to see Brazilian international winger Savio in a sky blue shirt from next month, according to a new report.

It was exclusively reported by transfer market insider Fabrizio Romano back in mid-February that the Premier League champions had signed all documents to sign Sávio from July 1, in the first completed deal ahead of the 2024/25 season.

The wider understanding is that the agreement between Manchester City and ESTAC Troyes – also part of the City Football Group – for Savio is worth around €40 million, in a fee that has been scrutinised by the Premier League over fair market value.

With the player currently in limbo over his future off the back of an excellent season with Girona in La Liga, and the Catalan club looking ahead to their first season the UEFA Champions League, the Brazilian remains focussed on his nation’s Copa America hopes.

However, reports continue to circulate concerning the player’s future, and the latest information to emerge concerns a firm intention to play under Pep Guardiola next season as opposed to going on loan from the club.

According to the information of Premier League Brasil, Savio is now expected to join Manchester City in July for the club’s pre-season tour of the United States, where four matches await Pep Guardiola and his players.

However, while it is stated that Manchester City are yet to decide on whether to retain the player or sanction a loan deal for next season, the Brazilian’s representatives are working to have the player make the switch to the Etihad Stadium and ‘stay there’.

Elsewhere, and Manchester City are still understood to be in the market for fresh attacking recruits this summer, in a move that could ultimately decide the fate of Savio should any deals be completed in the attacking line.

Etihad Stadium recruitment bosses hold a strong interest in Crystal Palace’s Michael Olise, however the Frenchman is simultaneously fielding contact and interest from a number of powerhouse clubs including Bayern Munich and Chelsea.

Manchester City could yet also enter the market for a new striker, with back-up option Julian Alvarez in search of more consistent game time as a leading number nine, and attracting interest from the likes of Atletico Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain.

TRANSFERSManchester City attempting to hijack Real Madrid’s €45 million move for midfield starPublished: 18:00 on June 18th 2024 | Last Updated: 14:53 on June 18th 2024By Harry Winters
SHARETWEET
Manchester City are planning to hijack Real Madrid’s summer move for River Plate teenager Franco Mastanuono.

The 16-year-old could become Manchester City’s third recent addition from South American giants River Plate, following in the footsteps of striker Julian Alvarez and midfielder Claudio Echeverri.

Alvarez has made over 100 appearances since moving to the Etihad Stadium in 2022, meanwhile Echeverri is expected to complete a switch to east Manchester in January, having signed until 2028 earlier this year for an initial £12.5 million.

Etihad bosses are lining up another potential addition from the Argentinian outfit, with teenage midfielder Franco Mastanuono having emerged as a summer transfer target for Manchester City and the City Football Group.

The 16-year-old has made 18 appearances for River Plate in 2024, including three showings and one goal during the club’s Copa Libertadores campaign.

The attacking midfielder, who can also play out wide, signed a new deal with River Plate in March until 2026, but could complete a major transfer to Europe due to a €45 million release clause within the player’s latest contract.

Real Madrid have already taken steps towards signing the teenager this summer, but have reached an impasse in negotiations with River Plate regarding the midfielder’s transfer fee.

Sport Witness relay claims for Spanish outlet Sport that Manchester City are now considering hijacking the deal, with the Premier League champions willing to ‘blow up’ Mastanuono’s agreement and ‘intensify’ the transfer battle.

Manchester City are reportedly planning an ‘express operation’ to complete a shock transfer swoop and bring the teenager to England instead of Spain this summer.

City and Real Madrid have been involved in a series of battles both on and off the pitch in recent years, with the La Liga outfit knocking Manchester City out of the UEFA Champions League on penalties in April.

Simon Jordan believes “a deal may be struck” regarding Manchester City’s 115 charges for alleged Premier League financial breaches.

Liverpool’s top flight rivals were charged in February 2023 over historical breaches of the league’s Financial Fair Play (FFP) rules between 2009 and 2018. City have strongly denied all charges while an independent commission scrutinises the case.

It has recently been reported that the club are gearing up to take legal action against the Premier League, with reports indicating their intent to dismiss the league’s ‘unlawful’ Associated Party Transaction (APT) regulations.

And now Simon Jordan, former owner of Crystal Palace, has expressed his opinion on talkSPORT. “There is so much at play here. Part of owning a football club is because you are utilising it for some form of influence,” he said.

“There are political things at play here. That is why I think there may well will be a deal struck that means everybody drops hands and some consequence is wreaked upon City and some solution is enabled for the Premier League.”

Premier League chief Richard Masters announced that the hearing concerning this City case would occur in the “near future”. Furthermore, he also certified that he is obligated by top-flight protocols, which prohibit him from disclosing additional information.

City chairman Khaldoon al-Mubarak expressed his frustration during an end-of-season briefing with the club’s internal media. Despite a successful campaign that saw them secure a record-breaking fourth consecutive Premier League title, he has expressed frustration over the allegations.

He said: “Of course, it’s frustrating. The referencing is always frustrating. I feel for our fanbase and everyone associated with the club to have these charges constantly referenced. It’s taking longer than anyone hoped for but there is a process we have to go through. I’ve always repeated, let’s be judged by the facts and not by claims and counterclaims.”

According to the latest report from Torque Info on X, ‘information is spreading’ that the City Football Group would be willing to ‘break the contract’ with Montevideo City Torque, and have their eyes on Central Español within the same city.

While the report clarifies that ‘for now it is just information’, they go on to claim that a separation of Montevideo City and the City Football Group would be due to three key factors: More money was requested and refused, a lack of success, and player training.
