Manchester City star stakes claim to trophy – City fans unlikely to agree with him

Manchester City Star Rodri has insisted that winning with Spain is a more special experience than winning with his club.

AS reports on an interview with the midfielder today after appearing on DAZN’s Revelado program. In this, the 29-year-old player was seen focusing on his career.

spain success

The Spanish midfielder has enjoyed a trophy-filled career so far, winning 19 major club and international trophies so far.

His honors include one UEFA Champions League title, four Premier League titles and one UEFA European Championship title with Spain. He has also won the UEFA Nations League with his country and was the UEFA Euro 2024 Player of the Tournament.

He now has his sights set on winning the World Cup with Spain this summer and says winning with Luis de la Fuente’s team is more special than winning with Manchester City.

Regarding a photo of himself with the European Championship trophy, he said, “The most beautiful moment of my career. It is more special to achieve my dreams with my country than with my club.”

“It’s amazing how the tournament started, how the team won it. We weren’t the favorites, and what we did… it ended up being a special, unique year. Maybe we weren’t considered contenders, and that made us stronger.

“That confidence is something you keep within yourself. We knew we were the best, but we had to prove it. And that’s what we did. That European Championship speaks volumes about the ambition of the national team. The rivals we beat. We prevailed strongly; we won every match in the tournament. It speaks volumes about what was in store for us.”

manchester city trophy win

That doesn’t mean Rodri is completely disregarding his success at the Etihad. That will be difficult after winning 11 major trophies with Manchester City, including four Premier League titles.

The last of those, was won through his own strike and he admits it was a special moment in a big year for him.

He added, “It was probably the most fulfilling year I’ve ever had.”

“In terms of goals, I was in incredible physical condition. I helped the team win its fourth title in a row. It was an extremely difficult, complicated year. Like every year when you’re aiming for everything. To finish it with that goal was special.”

The club’s first Champions League success in 2023 is also hard to ignore, but that success has different memories for everyone else.

“A very special day because of what the Champions League means to the club, what that iconic goal means to me personally, but what I remember most is the team,” he concluded.

“Our ability to recover from the last years, I think, to not win the title that we deserved, but which was taken away from us. I remember that moment I spoke to Pep about how difficult it was. Moments of pure joy.”

Manchester United players agree personal terms to exit – serious talks underway

of manchester united Marcus Rashford has already agreed personal terms with Barcelona ahead of a permanent move this summer.

game The report adds that Barcelona have reached an agreement over the forward’s wages, but are now seeking ore favorable terms with Manchester United.

Barcelona is working on a deal

The newspaper reports that Barcelona are pushing hard to keep Marcus Rashford when his loan deal with Manchester United expires at the end of the season.

It came after Barcelona manager Hansi Flick requested that the 28-year-old be kept as part of the project. The Catalan club had practically rejected a deal due to his price, but alternative options have not convinced Flick.

Rashford has played his part, making it clear he is willing to make it easier to fit his ‘multimillion-euro’ salary within Barcelona’s wage range.

A long contract will be agreed, and the Englishman is willing to share the payment and give up part of his salary. Now Barcelona want to avoid paying the €30m buyout clause they agreed with Manchester United last summer.

Manchester United has a strong grip

Manchester United, for their part, have been very firm in early talks. They are refusing to accept a lower transfer fee or an extension of the loan deal.

He has also argued that the current €30m price tag is below the value of Marcus Rashford. They have already agreed to a flexible payment plan to be paid over three years. Barcelona want a price cut, but it is unlikely United will accept it.

However, their main problem is Rashford. He is blocking any talks, does not want to return to Old Trafford Will not accept any other proposal.

This has left Manchester United in a ‘real crisis’. Sport argue that both clubs are certain to reach an agreement, but they need to find a deal that satisfies both parties.

Barcelona would like another loan with a new, less mandatory purchase option. At that time Rashford would have only one year left on his contract with Manchester United. But they also want to save on Rashford’s wages for a second season.

In other words, they want their cake, then they want to eat it too. After that they want another cake and then they want to eat that too.

Tottenham compete with Aston Villa for lucrative free agent – both clubs agree to equal wages

Aston Villa Marcos is working on a deal to sign Senesi on a free transfer but now faces competition Tottenham Hotspur.

The defender’s Bournemouth contract expires in the summer, with the player not renewing his deal. He has impressed in the Premier League this season, playing 30 times.

sports witness Having recently covered how Barcelona are pursuing the target, the Argentine is likely awaiting a formal approach from the Catalan side.

Juventus have already done so, with the defender potentially appealing for a move to Italy.

There are now significant signings from a host of players including Aston Villa and Tottenham.

English clubs are ready to offer salary

tuttosport Today’s report Juve have been tracking Senesi for weeks. They have been in contact with his representatives, as well as showing interest in Leon Goretzka.

Senesi is believed to have informed Bournemouth of his decision to leave. He is now 28 years old and wants the opportunity to play for a top club and potentially earn a higher salary.

The Bianconeri have offered €3 million per season on a four-year deal but that is difficult for Senesi to accept. The main reason for this is that Aston Villa and Tottenham are also keen and are willing to offer €4m per season.

The newspaper believes it will be difficult for the Old Lady to compete, with Borussia Dortmund also offering a high salary.

Money is the only thing that will come down to it, especially since Juve is not guaranteed Champions League football.

Our opinion: Aston Villa could have the upper hand

For largely the same reasons as Juve, Tottenham may not have an advantage in this race. They will not play in Europe next season, with Aston Villa still in the race to qualify for the Champions League.

Villains boast a more stable project under Unai Emery and this could define Senesi’s career.

If Micky Van de Ven leaves Tottenham, Senesi could get more regular football in London. But Spurs have been plagued by instability in recent years.

Argentina would probably want to stay away from this, making Villa Park a more viable destination.

Chelsea agree big transfer arrival – Rosenior key, length of contract still unclear

chelsea

chelseaThe pursuit of Valentin Barko has been on the rise in recent weeks, and the latest update suggests the club are now at the finish line.

after Failing to land a midfielder in JanuaryThe Blues kept pressing. Reports earlier this month indicated they were making progress in talks with Strasbourg, and confidence is growing over a summer move.

However, precautions were still taken. Sources close to the situation stressed that a final agreement has not yet been reached.

That gap may have closed now.

Agreement reached as Chelsea make decisive move

spanish journalist Andres Onrubia Ramos There are now reports that Valentin Barco will play for Chelsea with full agreement.

According to him, the 21-year-old has agreed to a six-year contract with the Blues. argentina outlet gazetteHowever, report slightly different terms – they claim the midfielder is set to sign a five-year contract running until June 2031.

Transfer fee details are unclear at this stage. Still, it is expected to be significantly higher than the fee of around £8m (€9.4m) paid by Strasbourg to Brighton last summer.

Either way, the deal follows a strong transfer push from Chelsea after the international break, building on the groundwork already laid in the process.

Liam Rosenior’s influence has again been central. The Chelsea manager is said to have worked closely with Barco at Strasbourg played a decisive role In convincing the player to accept the move.

Chelsea have also presented a clear game plan. Barco has reportedly been assured that he will be a key part of the project, being seen as a potentially key figure in the team moving forward.

That promise appears to have made a difference.

From advanced negotiations to full agreement

This latest development marks a change from the previous update.

Argentina’s earlier claims Told that the talks are going well, but have not been completed yet. Despite Chelsea’s clear advantage due to the BLUCO structure linking the two clubs, there was discussion about the details still needing to be sorted out.

Now the tone has changed. The move is being presented as full consent rather than just termination.

Chelsea have been in a strong position throughout. His ownership relationship with Strasbourg has simplified negotiations, while Rosenior’s relationship with the player has added a personal layer to the deal.

what happens next

Valentin Barco is expected to join Chelsea in June after the end of the season.

If confirmed, it would complete a transfer story that has developed in clear stages. Initial interest turned into a failed attempt in January, followed by renewed efforts and now, apparently, a full agreement has been reached.

The final step is official confirmation. Until then, Chelsea’s pursuit of Barco appears to be almost complete.

Tottenham agree framework agreement with player – official offer forthcoming

Tottenham goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario
Tottenham goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario

Inter Milan are only thinking about signing Tottenham Hotspur goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario for the summer.

The Italy international spent his entire career in his home country before Tottenham signed him from Empoli in June 2023.

Since then he has been first-choice for the Premier League team, keeping 29 clean sheets and conceding 170 goals in 117 matches.

This includes 13 clean sheets and 65 goals in 43 matches for the North London club this season.

The stopper’s Premier League statistics this season are as follows:

  • Shots on target: 131
  • Saves: 83
  • Saving Percentage: 63.4%
  • Accepted target: 50
  • Penalty saved: 0/2

He has not enjoyed a good run of form with Spurs, who have also struggled this season. This has not stopped the Nerazzurri from wanting to bring him back to Serie A in the summer.

Last month, Sports Witness broadcast news Inter Milan sporting director Piero Ausilio also visited London and spoke with his agent.

Tottenham are interested in signing the player

Inter Milan have No.1 Yann Sommer, 37, and his contract expires in June. Therefore, they are looking for a new goalkeeper and have been linked to Liverpool star Alisson Becker, Aston Villa’s Emiliano Martínez and a few others.

However, the Serie A team is not looking anywhere else and are solely focused on Guglielmo Vicario and have only made contact with the Tottenham Hotspur player.

is according to The InteristaWhich covers the latest information on the San Siro side’s ongoing efforts to sign him.

Earlier this week, Sport Witness Covered claims from Italy The 29-year-old has agreed a four-year deal worth €3.5m per year. The outlet points to this and indicates that this is likely a verbal agreement.

After receiving the framework agreement for the transfer, Inter Milan is now ‘Already preparing to present official proposal’ To the player.

The stopper is keen to return to Italy and Cristian Chivu’s side must agree terms with Spurs. It is expected that a deal can be reached with Roberto De Zerbi’s side for €20m or less in the event of relegation.

The Premier League team is now 17th in the table, one point above 18th-placed West Ham United.

Our opinion: Vicario is likely to leave Spurs

Tottenham Hotspur’s immediate focus is to avoid relegation and then concentrate on their transfer business.

Even if Spurs remain in the top flight, Guglielmo Vicario is most likely to leave in the summer. However, staying up should allow the English club to demand a slightly higher fee.

His contract expires in 2028 transfer market He is worth €28m.

Tottenham agree personal terms upon player’s exit – €3.5m per season

Tottenham’s Guglielmo Vicario has been consistently mentioned as an Inter Milan target over the past few months.

A return to Italy is now getting closer for the goalkeeper.

Nerazzurri sporting director Piero Ausilio has already made preliminary contact with the player’s agent Gabriele Giuffrida. Those things happened during the trip to London.

it was covered extensively sports witnessThe Italian giants boast an excellent relationship with Vicario’s squad.

Giuffrida is said to have helped Inter with several deals in the past. The Tottenham player was also close to joining the Nerazzurri ahead of his arrival in London in 2023.

With the deal now gaining momentum, the 29-year-old’s stance is very clear.

Vicario agrees to the personal terms

interest Today report that the goalkeeper now has an agreement on personal terms on a move to Inter.

The Serie A leaders have agreed a four-year deal worth €3.5m per season, a figure likely to be after tax. This is more than the player’s current earnings at Tottenham and could prompt a transfer.

The outlet has confirmed that Inter have already spoken to Vicario and his agent, with the ex-Empoli man giving the green light to the transfer.

In fact, he is ‘honoured’ by Inter’s eagerness to sign him. The player is not pushing for an exit but the Nerazzurri’s next step is to hold talks with Tottenham.

Our Opinion: There should be a deal

There are still months left for the transfer window to open, but Inter are making rapid progress towards the signing of Vicario. This probably suggests that a deal could very well be done by June.

Given the way the Italy international has bounced back this season, Tottenham should also be keen to be different. Vicario has shown weaknesses in and out of possession, looking clearly a shadow of himself from the Anze Postecoglou days.

Furthermore, there is every possibility that Spurs will get a better goalkeeper in the summer. A new manager will impose his ideas and Vicario may not be the best choice given his weaknesses on the ball.

There may be problems with the transfer fee, with the belief in Italy that €20 million, or slightly less, would be enough for Tottenham.

Celtic are ‘still waiting for player to agree’ after transfer offer accepted

Celtic are ‘still waiting’ for Frosinone forward Fares Ghedjemis to agree a move to Celtic Park after they agreed a deal with the Italian side for him.

Gazzetta dello sport report Celtic are in a dilemma over the 23-year-old forward, having turned down the chance to join them earlier this year.

Breakout season is based on sacrifice

The Italian newspaper reports that Gedzemis didn’t just turn down Celtic, he also doubled down on Frosinone, Serie B and themselves. At this point, it looks like a very smart move.

With 12 goals and three assists in an impressive campaign this season, he has become one of Italy’s breakout stories.

He has also made his debut for Algeria, replacing Riyad Mahrez and scoring, instantly raising his international profile and market value.

Frosinone See what’s coming. They activated the option to extend his deal until 2028, which came into play when Celtic came in with a €6 million offer in January.

Why did they say no to Celtic?

The Italian club allowed him to choose his future. Go now or stay and fight for promotion. Fares Ghedjemis stopped and has been undefeated ever since.

Interest in him is growing and Celtic are ‘still waiting’ on him. As his numbers continue to rise, German clubs are following his progress.

It remains to be seen whether €6m is still enough to convince Frosinone. The forward is currently valued at €5.50m, so this would still represent fair value. This is also a huge profit on the €300,000 Frosinone paid in 2024.

However, for now, Gedzemis remains involved with the Italian club. He is scoring, assisting and leading the team to Serie A. They currently sit third in Serie B, three points behind leaders Venezia.

It shows that snubbing Celtic in January was the right move on his part. Scottish giants still in danger Efforts are being made to potentially revive the deal in the summer.
