Alonso Praises Trent and Huijsen, Calls Their Debuts a Big Step for Real Madrid

Real Madrid manager Xabi Alonso had special praise for Dean Huijsen and Trent Alexander-Arnold after their 1-1 draw with Al Hilal in the FIFA Club World Cup on Wednesday. Both players made their debut for the Spanish side, having joined earlier this summer—Alexander-Arnold from Liverpool and Huijsen from Bournemouth.
Alonso described the occasion as a special moment for the pair and believes they have a key role to play in Madrid’s future. “I want to congratulate Dean and Trent,” he said. “It’s a big day for them, and they’re going to be very important for us.”
The manager also addressed the early substitution of Raul Asencio, explaining it was due to the intense heat during the game. Madrid will now shift focus to their next match against Pachuca on Sunday.

Galatasaray Stops Pursuing Osimhen After Napoli Ask for Too Much Money

Turkish transfer expert Süleyman Rodop has confirmed that Galatasaray will no longer pursue Victor Osimhen following Napoli’s tough demands. Napoli reportedly asked for €40 million upfront and another €35 million by 2026, along with a sell-on clause, after Galatasaray submitted their fourth offer for the Nigerian striker.
Speaking to Turkish outlet habersarikirmizi, Rodop stated that the Turkish club won’t go beyond their final bid. He explained that although Osimhen’s current deal runs out next year, Napoli still hold the option to extend it by another season. Rodop praised Osimhen for his professionalism, saying he handled the situation admirably.
However, Galatasaray have decided to walk away, believing Napoli are dragging the deal unnecessarily. “The latest offer stands, and it won’t change,” Rodop said. “Napoli’s president is just playing games now.” Osimhen is said to be eager to return to Galatasaray permanently, after impressing on loan last season.
