PSG – Barça battle for the Golden Boy
No Lamine Yamal for the Golden Boy, the battle is on! Madrid's youth is interesting, with once again Arda Güler nominated for the Golden Boy, as well as Franco Mastantuono and Dean Huijsen. The three will inevitably do well, even if we are heading towards a duel between Barça and PSG as recalled Marca. The big favorite is Désiré Doué. The French international, who has already finished 2nd in the Kopa trophy, should benefit from the absence of Lamine Yamal. His incredible season punctuated by a double in the Champions League final speaks for itself, even if the Spanish press has not forgotten Pau Cubarsi who has just had a very good season with Barça.
Manchester City's new track in the middle
The transfer window has not yet opened, but Pep Guardiola has found a player he really likes: a certain Elliot Anderson. The Nottingham Forest midfielder has just made his debut for the national team and he was just as convincing as with his club. Pep Guardiola didn't miss a beat and according to the Daily StarManchester City would be ready to spend €75 million to afford the England international. He would come with the aim of replacing Rodri who has not yet returned to his best level and who is still being courted by Real Madrid. Given the Nico Gonzalez disappointment, Manchester City wants to anticipate.
Donnarumma reassures for the World Cup
Gianluigi Donnarumma spoke with La Gazzetta dello Sport at the end of this international break. Obviously, the former PSG mentioned the situation of Italy which risks playing in the play-off for the next World Cup. “The third time won't happen, it can't happen: this national team will meet again at the next world championship. I have no doubt“, assures Donnarumma. It must be said that Italian supporters have reason to be worried, it has been 11 years since they participated in the World Cup. The last two play-offs against Sweden and North Macedonia are real traumas in Italy, even if Gennaro Gattuso made a successful debut with the Squadra Azzurra.
