Tudo isso por conta do seu belo cruzamento que deu origem ao gol de Luciano – e garantiu a vitória do Tricolor contra o América-MG por 1 a 0, no jogo de ida das quartas de final da Copa do Brasil. Assim, o clube do Morumbi chegará para a decisão na Arena Independência com a vantagem de um gol.

Com este lance, Igor Vinícius somou cinco assistências em 31 jogos, além de dois gols. Como dito antes, estes números se igualaram a marca da última temporada – e com menos jogos. Em 2021, o camisa 2 também deu cinco assistências, em 40 partidas, e marcou a mesma quantidade de gols.

Igor Vinícius chegou a equipe inicialmente por um empréstimo junto ao Ituano, em 2019, mas foi adquirido em definitivo por mostrar regularidade em seu futebol. Também esteve presente na conquista do Campeonato Paulista de 2021 – o título mais recente do Tricolor.

Além disso, em junho deste ano, o jogador chegou a se consolidarcomo o atleta com o maior número de jogos seguidos sem perder no Estádio do Morumbi: 38 partidas.Antes, a marca de 37 jogos pertencia a Pedro Rocha no ranking. Antes de ultrapassar o uruguaio, o atleta havia superado Müller e Jorge Wagner, que possuem 34 e 36 partidas invictas, respectivamente.

Porém, mesmo com a boa fase e tais números, o Tricolor ainda nada acertou referente à uma possível renovação com Igor Vinícius. O contrato do lateral-direito com a equipe vai até dezembro deste ano. Conforme apurações levantadas pelo LANCE!, por enquanto, não há nenhuma novidade.

O L!já havia confirmado antes a existência de uma proposta feita pelo clube, que teria sido negada.O problema para o Tricolor é que os agentes de Igor Vinícius teriam informado que o jogador foi sondado por pelo menos dois clubes da Espanha, além de outras equipes do futebol brasileiro. Assim, o futuro do atleta é incerto.

Porém, o camisa 2 é umas principais peças de Rogério Ceni, comumente escalado entre os titulares e importante para as partidas – como aconteceu contra o América-MG.

Barcelona open to offers for Ferran TorresCatalan club sets price tag of €50m Spanish forward's contract runs until 2027Follow GOAL on WhatsApp! 🟢📱WHAT HAPPENED?

The 25-year-old forward has consistently delivered for Barcelona this season, scoring several clutch goals off the bench. However, with Robert Lewandowski leading the line and plenty of attacking depth in the squad, Torres is unlikely to be a regular starter next season. As a result, Barcelona are open to letting him go and, according to Fichajes, the club has set a €50 million (£42m/$56m) price tag for the Spanish forward.

Barcelona are going through a difficult phase financially. Having already faced significant challenges in trying to sign Dani Olmo last season, the club is now looking to balance the books, and selling Torres is one option on the table. However, the final decision will also depend on the player, as his contract runs until 2027.

DID YOU KNOW?

Ferran Torres moved to Barcelona from Manchester City in the summer of 2022. After a few quiet seasons with the Blaugrana, the Spaniard enjoyed his best campaign in La Liga in 2024-25, scoring 19 goals and providing seven assists across 45 appearances. Notably, his goals-per-minute ratio this season is even better than Lewandowski’s, proving his growing efficiency in front of the goal.

Getty Images SportWHAT NEXT FOR FERRAN TORRES?

The former Manchester City forward is out for the remainder of the season after undergoing emergency surgery for appendicitis. With Barcelona having clinched the Liga title following their win over Espanyol, Torres may have already played his final match for the Catalan club ahead of a potential summer transfer.

A “brilliant” manager is under consideration to replace Barry Ferguson as Rangers manager this summer, at which point the club is “likely to be under new ownership”, according to reliable reporter Ben Jacobs.

Ferguson gets off to perfect Rangers start with win at Kilmarnock

After 16 months at the helm, Philippe Clement was relieved of his duties as Rangers boss following a 2-0 home defeat against St Mirren, which left his side 13 points adrift of Scottish Premiership leaders Celtic.

In the wake of Clement’s sacking, a number of managers have been linked with moves to Ibrox, with the likes of David Wagner and Steven Gerrard being named as potential candidates for the job. However, the Gers hierarchy moved swiftly to appoint ex-player Ferguson on an interim basis, and the former captain avoided an early scare at Kilmarnock on Wednesday evening, winning his first match 4-2 courtesy of goals from Vaclav Cerny, Cyriel Dessers and Nedim Bajrami.

Who will become the Gers’ next permanent boss?

Posts ByHenry Jackson Feb 25, 2025

The 47-year-old has made it clear he will impose an attack-minded philosophy during his time in the Ibrox dugout, saying: “You are going to see a team who are going to have a certain style of play, attack-minded and we are going to try to win every single game.

“We are going to be aggressive, which was a part of my game as well and I don’t mean by going and tackling people, but I mean aggressive in the press.”

It remains to be seen whether the Scot’s attacking philosophy is able to win over the Rangers faithful and convince the board to give him the full time gig, but a four-goal haul at Killie is a great start.

Taking to X however, the reliable Jacobs has stated Derek McInnes is “under consideration” to replace Ferguson in the summer, at which point the Gers are “likely to be under new ownership”, with 49ers Enterprises in line to take over.

McInnes famously came close to replacing Pedro Caixinha in the dugout back in 2017, verbally accepting the deal job before being talked out of it by Dave King.

"Brilliant" McInnes impressing at Kilmarnock

The 53-year-old has developed quite a reputation in Scotland, spending almost eight years at Aberdeen between 2013 and 2021, and pushing Celtic nearly all the way in the title race during the 2015-16 season.

During his time with the Dons, the Paisley-born coach also lifted the Scottish League Cup in 2014, one of three trophies he’s won in his career, having won the Scottish Championship on two occasions.

Brendan Rodgers has described the Scottish coach as “absolutely brilliant”, and there are signs he could do a good job at Ibrox, given his success with Aberdeen and Kilmarnock, leading the club to a fourth-place finish last season, in what was their first campaign after winning promotion.

That said, if Rangers are going to bridge the gap to Rodgers’ Celtic, they could do with a manager with more experience of competing for major honours, rather than appointing a coach with no experience in a top job.

Champions League qualification is currently in the hands of Nottingham Forest. They are not on the cusp yet but are in an excellent position with over half of the season complete. The men in Garibaldi Red are third in the Premier League with 44 points, with six points the gap between them and Newcastle United in fifth place.

There have been some exceptional performances from Nuno Espirito Santo’s men this season. Perhaps their best player has been striker Chris Wood, who has 14 goals in 22 Premier League appearances so far this term.

Now, with the January transfer window in full flow, the East Midlands club are targeting attacking reinforcements and could make a shock move for Wolverhampton Wanderers star Matheus Cunha.

Nottingham Forest’s shock Cunha move

If Forest were able to secure the services of Cunha, it would be a surprising deal indeed. According to a report from the Mail, they have the Brazilian ‘at the top of their January shopping list’ and could try and sign him despite interest from other Premier League sides.

It has been another fantastic season for Cunha, as Wolves struggle in the Premier League and are in a fight to save their top-flight status. He has ten goals and four assists in 21 games for the Old Gold this term.

Perhaps’ Cunha’s best game in the 2024/25 campaign came against Fulham in a shock 4-1 win for Wolves at Craven Cottage. He scored twice and grabbed an assist as the West Midlands club got a crucial three points in London.

There is no doubt that this would be a brilliant coup for Forest. Not only would they be signing a proven Premier League star, but they would be bringing in a player from a Midlands rival.

However, there is an argument to suggest they don’t need to make this transfer, with someone at the club already being their own version of Cunha.

Nottingham Forest's very own Matheus Cunha

The player in question here is Forest number 10 Morgan Gibbs-White. The England international also made the move to the City Ground from Molineux, for a hefty fee of £42.5m including add-ons.

It is fair to say that there is no love lost between Gibbs-White and the Wolves fans. They made their feelings known during the most recent clash between the sides at Molineux, which Forest won 3-0. Gibbs-White opened the scoring, and his celebration in front of the Wolves fans said it all, putting his fingers in his ears.

During his time at the City Ground, the England international has really impressed. He has 15 goals and 22 assists in 98 games and has previously been described as a “magician” by football statistician Statman Dave. This term, he has eight goals and assists in the Premier League.

Typically, Gibbs-White has played in behind the striker, Wood, and has formed an exceptional partnership with the New Zealander. They have combined for six goals in 58 games together, in what has proven to be a really fruitful partnership.

This does beg the question of whether Forest need Cunha. It seems unlikely that the Gibbs-White and Wood partnership will be broken, so it is not necessarily obvious where he will fit in.

The statistics via Squawka also show that the Forest man and the Brazilian are not really too dissimilar. For example, Gibbs-White averages 0.6 goals and assists per 90 minutes compared to 0.9 for Cunha, and plays 12.7 forward passes as opposed to Cunha’s 9.3 each game.

Forest’s number 10 was valued at £60m as recently as May 2024, showing his importance to Nuno’s side. There is certainly a question as to if they need to sign Cunha based on that, or do the men in Garibaldi Red actually have their answer to the Wolves star, in Gibbs-White.

Nottingham Forest are hoping to make a real top-four push

ByJoe Nuttall Jan 21, 2025

Still looking to sign a central defender this month, Aston Villa have now reportedly been offered the chance to sign a La Liga defender who scored a vital goal in the Champions League this week.

Aston Villa transfer news

The Villans certainly haven’t been shy on the transfer front so far this month, securing the signature of Donyell Malen and then Levante right-back Andres Garcia. Both arrivals will be interesting to watch, particularly if the latter jumps ahead of Matty Cash in the pecking order to become Unai Emery’s starting right-back at Villa Park for the remainder of the season and beyond.

Revealing his admiration for Emery, Garcia told the official club website after putting pen to paper: “He (Emery) is a coach I’ve been following for a long time, because he has an amazing career.

“He’s been with various Spanish teams, which has allowed me to watch some of his games with his previous clubs, like Sevilla and Valencia. I’ve seen lots of him.

“He’s a coach that teaches his players a lot, full of determination. When he has an idea, he won’t stop until he fulfils it. And I think we have things in common, especially how we work, so I think he’s going to be a coach that teaches me a lot, and I’m excited to play my part, of course.”

With over a week left until the January transfer window slams shut, however, Garica may not be the final name through the door. According to Graeme Bailey for The Boot Room, Aston Villa have now been offered the chance to sign Eric Garcia this month following the defender’s fall down the Barcelona pecking order.

The former Manchester City man would be bowing out having enjoyed one last moment to savour after scoring the equaliser to level things up at 4-4 in the 86th minute of a sensational 5-4 victory for Barcelona against Benfica in the Champions League earlier this week.

"Smart" Garcia could become Bade alternative

Amid reports that Aston Villa could now walk away from a deal to sign Sevilla’s Loic Bade, Garcia could emerge to become an ideal alternative. Still just 24 years old, the central defender already has Premier League experience and a Premier League medal to his name after rising through the ranks at Manchester City before leaving for Barcelona.

It was during his time at The Etihad that Garcia earned instant praise from Pep Guardiola too, with the Spaniard saying via Bleacher Report following the defender’s debut: “He is a guy who has a lot of sense of the position. He is so smart; he is not the strongest in the air with the headers, he is not the fastest one, but few times do the opposition win one position where he is. He is able to guide the line and has a lot of personality to play—good vision, good passing.“

Now, Manchester City’s previous loss could quickly become Aston Villa’s gain as they look to continue what has already been an excellent January transfer window.

  Following their 1-0 loss to New England Revolution, Atlanta United fell to 11th on the Eastern Conference table. They go on the road to face Philadelphia Union on April 19 and following that face Orlando City away from home on April 26.

حسم نادي الأهلي أولى صفاته الخاصة بموسم الانتقالات الصيفي لعام 2025، من أجل دعم الفريق استعدادًا لبطولة كأس العالم للأندية في أمريكا، وكذلك الموسم الجديد.

وعانى الأهلي من موسم سئ، نتج عنه مؤخرًا الإطاحة بالمدرب مارسيل كولر من منصبه.

من جهة أخرى، أوضح المدير الرياضي لنادي فيرينسفاروش المجري، أنه قد تم التوصل إلى اتفاق مع نظيره الأهلي بشأن انتقال اللاعب محمد علي بن رمضان إلى الفريق المصري.

كان الأهلي راغبًا في ضم اللاعب التونسي، العام الماضي، ولكن تلك الصفقة لم تتم في النهاية.

وجدد الأهلي اهتمامه بضم محمد علي بن رمضان في ظل رغبته في تدعيم صفوف الفريق في موسم الانتقالات الصيفي المقبل.

ويبدو أن الأهلي قد حسم الصفقة بالفعل هذه المرة، حسبما كشف المدير الرياضي لنادي فيرينسفاروش في تصريحات صحفية اليوم الجمعة.

وقال تاماس هاجنال، المدير الرياضي في تصريحات نشرتها شبكة “m4sport” المجرية، نقلًا عن برنامج “Fradi Zóna Warm-up”، أن محمد علي بن رمضان لن يكون لاعبًا في فيرينسفاروش الموسم المقبل.

وأوضح أن نادي فيرينسفاروش توصل إلى اتفاق مع الأهلي المصري حول صفقة بن رمضان، حيث تم توقيع كافة الوثائق المتعلقة بالأمر، سواء بين الناديين أو فيما يخص عقد اللاعب.

وأشار إلى أن الأهلي تواصل مع فيرينسفاروش في الأشهر والأسابيع الأخيرة، عدة مرات، قبل أن تزداد حدة تلك المفاوضات مؤخرًا ويكلل الأمر بالنجاح بالتوصل إلى اتفاق بين الناديين أمس.

وأفاد أنه قد تم توقيع العقود بالفعل، ووقع بن رمضان على العقد الخاص به اليوم، وفي حال اجتيازه الفحص الطبي بنجاح، سيصبح لاعبًا في الأهلي بدءًا من الموسم المقبل، على حد قوله.

وأكد أن صفقة انتقال بن رمضان إلى الأهلي تمت بمقتضى صفقة تجارية مربحة للغاية، دون الكشف عن القيمة.

Tottenham Hotspur boss Ange Postecoglou has personally asked the Lilywhites, and presumably technical director Johan Lange, to sign one player in January – with Spurs allegedly already in talks over a transfer next month.

Tottenham rescued by Dejan Kulusevski at Rangers in 1-1 Europa League draw

A less-than ideal run of form continues for the north Londoners, who have won just once in their last eight games across all competitions, and they were very nearly humbled by SPFL giants Rangers at Ibrox on Thursday evening.

The Gers fashioned many opportunities and could’ve easily got on the scoresheet on more than one occasion, with Philippe Clement’s side taking a deserved lead just after the second-half restart through the in-form Hamza Igamane.

Tottenham survived periods of sustained pressure from Rangers and managed to create a few chances of their own before star player Dejan Kulusevski rescued a point around 15 minutes from full-time, but it was far from convincing for Postecoglou, who also continues to deal with an injury crisis.

Both Micky van de Ven and Cristian Romero are absent right now after fresh injuries last weekend, dealing a major blow to Postecoglou who’s been forced to utilise a makeshift option in teenage summer signing Archie Gray at the back alongside Radu Dragusin – their only fit natural central defender.

Alongside van de Ven and Romero, the north Londoners will be without Ben Davies, Rodrigo Bentancur, Yves Bissouma, Guglielmo Vicario, Richarlison and Wilson Odobert to face Southampton on Sunday.

After Gray’s assuring performance in an unfamiliar position against Rangers, Postecoglou heaped praise on the English talent, and it appears that the Australian could be reliant on him over the next few weeks.

“Archie has been asked to do things as an 18-year-old in unfamiliar positions away in Europe and in the Premier League and the way he’s handled it is outstanding,” said Postecoglou on Gray.

“You think to yourself if he can get through this period and keep growing then what’s he going to be like in three or four years’ time. The next manager will love him.”

Postecoglou asks Tottenham to sign Getafe defender Omar Alderete

While Gray is proving his worth right now, Postecoglou won’t want to be too reliant on the former Leeds United sensation if Romero and van de Ven are out for an extended period.

This has led to reports that Tottenham have held talks over signing Omar Alderete from Getafe in the winter, with Spanish publication AS (via Sport Witness) sharing their own update on Spurs’ interest in the 27-year-old.

Indeed, they write that Postecoglou has requested that Tottenham sign Alderete, and the Paraguay international is available for just £13 million – the value of his release clause.

This could actually prove a bargain for Spurs in their search for emergency cover when factoring in that Getafe’s mainstay defender has made more clearances and blocks per 90 than any other player in the La Liga side’s squad (WhoScored).

He’s clearly a solid option which could be obtained at an affordable price from Tottenham’s perspective, and that is very rare for a January window, where prices are usually inflated.

South Africa will host Australia for five ODIs and three T20Is in August 2023 in lieu of the three Tests that were scheduled for March 2021 but had to be postponed because of Covid-19. The Tests, which were part of the 2019-2021 World Test Championship cycle, are now set to be scrapped completely and be replaced by these eight white-ball fixtures, largely in preparation for the 2023 ODI World Cup.ESPNcricinfo has learnt that Cricket South Africa is not expected to lose any money as a result of the change. Though seven fewer days of cricket will be played now, the white-ball fixtures will make an equal amount of revenue for CSA as the three Tests would have, which is why it has agreed to the change.South Africa will also travel to Australia in late 2022 for their first festive Test series since 2008, with three matches due to be played in Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney. They will also play three ODIs as part of the World Cup Super League. Those matches are expected to take place after the Test, in January 2023, but CSA is concerned that it will clash with its new franchise T20 league and is in negotiations to have the matches played earlier, possibly before the Tests.South Africa and Australia have not played against each other in Tests since the Sandpapergate series in South Africa in 2018. They have since met in three ODIs in South Africa in March 2020, which South Africa won 3-0, and at the 2021 T20 World Cup, which Australia won, but were set to headline the 2021 summer with three Tests. Plans were underway for the series to take place, and CSA had made extensive arrangements to accommodate Australia, but they pulled out of the tour citing concerns over the pandemic, leaving CSA “disappointed and frustrated”.Cricket Australia had initially said it was looking at August 2023 as a window to reschedule the Tests, but because these matches are not part of the ongoing WTC cycle, there would have been no points at stake.
