Middlesbrough’s manager, Michael Carrick, is thrilled to welcome Kelechi Iheanacho to the team. The Nigerian forward has joined Boro on a six-month loan from Sevilla, marking his return to English football after previous spells with Manchester City and Leicester City.

Carrick expressed his enthusiasm, stating, “We’re obviously delighted Kelechi is joining us. Unfortunately, he wasn’t able to be in time for tonight but he’ll be an important player for us, have a big impact.”

He also mentioned the strength of the team’s attacking lineup and emphasized the importance of integrating Iheanacho during the upcoming training sessions.

Iheanacho had a challenging stint at Sevilla, where he made nine La Liga appearances without scoring but netted three goals in two Copa del Rey matches.

His return to England is highly anticipated, given his previous successes, including winning the Premier League with Manchester City and the FA Cup with Leicester City.

Barcelona are preparing to give rising star Lamine Yamal the legendary No 10 jersey, once worn by Lionel Messi. This big move comes as Yamal gets ready to sign a fresh long-term deal with the club this July when he turns 18. The young forward has had an impressive season and is already being talked about as a serious Ballon d’Or contender after helping Spain win the Euros last year.

Seen as the most exciting talent to come through since Messi’s early days, Yamal is now being fully backed by the club as the face of their future. His new contract will reportedly include a staggering €1 billion release clause, showing just how much trust and value Barca have placed on him.

The No 10 shirt is currently worn by Ansu Fati, but with Fati’s future at the club uncertain, the iconic number is expected to be passed on to Yamal. So far, Yamal has worn the No 19 jersey, but with this symbolic change, he’s stepping into even bigger shoes — and Barcelona believe he’s ready.

Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim reportedly considered quitting just two months into the job, after a rocky start left him frustrated and under pressure. The Portuguese coach took over from Erik ten Hag in November 2024, stepping into a role loaded with high expectations. But after managing just one win in his first eight games, things quickly turned sour.

According to sources, Amorim was so disappointed after a 3-1 loss to Brighton at Old Trafford that he was ready to resign in January. It reportedly took some serious convincing from close associates to stop him from walking away. While he decided to stay, the team’s form hasn’t improved much. United have suffered 13 defeats in 25 Premier League matches, and Amorim is said to be “deeply embarrassed” by the results.

Despite the struggles, there’s still hope. He has led the team to the Europa League final, where they’ll face Tottenham Hotspur. Winning it could secure both a trophy and a spot in next season’s Champions League. Earlier this year, club leaders including CEO Omar Berrada had to step in and reassure Amorim of their support, encouraging him to keep pushing through the tough period.
