Farioli lands in Portugal for next coaching adventure

Yahoo9 hours ago
As per Voetbal International, and the wider Dutch press, Francesco Farioli landed in Portugal late Thursday night to complete his move to FC Porto. The Italian coach was spotted by Portuguese media at Porto airport.
Arriving with his wife and two young children draped in club colours, Farioli was received by Porto general manager, Henrique Monteiro. Following further formalities, it is expected that the former Ajax coach will sign a two-year contract at the Estádio Dragão.

Farioli succeeds Martín Anselmi at Porto, who was sacked after the club's elimination from the Club World Cup. The Argentine had only been in office for six months, after Vítor Bruno was sent packing at the end of December.
Under their new Italian boss, Porto are looking to compete in the Portuguese league next season after finishing third behind Sporting Portugal and Benfica last season. Ajax midfielder Kenneth Taylor and Croatian defender Dominik Prpic from Hajduk Split are reportedly the first reinforcements in the picture.

Salah fearful of Liverpool return after Jota tragedy

Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah has admitted he is fearful of what awaits when he returns to the club in the wake of Diogo Jota's death. The club, fans and football as a whole are in mourning after the 28-year-old Portugal forward and his brother Andre Silva were killed in a car crash in Spain in the early hours of Thursday. Players were due back this weekend to begin the preliminaries of pre-season. However, the first tranche of the phased return scheduled for Friday has been postponed. I am truly lost for words. Until yesterday, I never thought there would be something that would frighten me of going back to Liverpool after the break. Team mates come and go but not like this. It's going to be extremely difficult to accept that Diogo won't be there when we go… — Mohamed Salah (@MoSalah) July 4, 2025 "I am truly lost for words. Until yesterday, I never thought there would be something that would frighten me of going back to Liverpool after the break," Salah wrote on social media. "Team mates come and go but not like this. It's going to be extremely difficult to accept that Diogo won't be there when we go back. "My thoughts are with his wife, his children, and of course his parents who suddenly lost their children. "Those close to Diogo and his brother Andre need all the support they can get. They will never be forgotten." Former Liverpool captain and team-mate Jordan Henderson joined the thousands of mourners to have laid a tribute at the temporary shrine which has built up outside Anfield. "Jots it was a pleasure to share a pitch with you but more importantly a friendship. All the laughs we had off the pitch and trying to find ways to wind milly (teammate James Milner) up and get him fined, which we never could," the England midfielder wrote on Instagram. "Taking pictures of me asleep on the bus travelling then sending them to me later. You always wanted to have a laugh and were a pleasure to be around." Mourners gathered at a wake in Portugal, ahead of the brothers' funeral at 10am local time on Saturday. Portuguese prime minister Luis Montenegro, Porto president Andre Villas-Boas, Portuguese football federation president Pedro Proenca and Jota's longtime agent Jorge Mendes joined the brothers' family including Jota's wife Rute Cardoso, who had married the footballer just weeks earlier, at a private wake in the brothers' home town of Gondomar in northern Portugal. "It is a moment of great pain for the family, who are left anchored to this tragic accident," Proenca said as he left the wake. "Diogo was an icon for the talent that Portuguese football represents and for its ability to generate unity around a person." Liverpool, who are supporting Jota's family, have opened a book of condolence, both physical in the Anfield Road Stand and online, lowered flags to half-mast and closed all stores and the museum and suspended all tours until Monday. Fans continue to leave flowers, scarves and shirts outside Anfield and there are similar scenes at Wolves' Molineux Stadium, where Jota spent three years before his move to Liverpool. Jota was also remembered at Wimbledon as two Portuguese players wore a black ribbon on their all-white attire during their matches. The All England Club has a strict dress code for players while on court but permission to wear the ribbon was granted. Nuno Borges, who at No. 37 is Portugal's highest-ranked tennis player, attached a ribbon to his hat for his third-round match against Karen Khachanov on No.3 Court. Francisco Cabral wore a black ribbon on his left sleeve during a doubles match.

Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. After surviving a wild Round of 16 test, Chelsea is the clear betting favorite in tonight's Club World Cup quarterfinal battle with Brazilian Serie A club Palmeiras. Chelsea is coming off a 4-1 win over Benfica in extra time last Saturday, while Palmeiras took down domestic rival Botafogo 1-0 in the Round of 16 to reach the quarterfinals. 🔔ANNOUNCEMENT: NEWSWEEK SPORTS BETTING 📩 LAUNCHING JULY 11: Starting July 11, Newsweek Sports Betting Editor Tyler Everett will deliver his weekly takes on what to bet on during the upcoming weekend -- and why -- ➡️ to your inbox every Friday. If you're enjoying the content on Newsweek's dedicated sports betting vertical, here's your chance to get all the latest analysis and betting picks you're looking for in your inbox. SIGN UP NOW While Chelsea has an undeniable advantage in star power, the Brazilian side has plenty of talent of its own. In addition to veteran midfielder Richard Rios -- who helped Colombia nearly upset Argentina in last year's Copa America final -- Palmeiras features two talented weapons up top: 20-year-old former Barcelona striker Vitor Roque and 18-year-old Chelsea signee Estêvão. All eyes will be on the latter tonight, as the Club World Cup is his final tournament with Palmeiras before he begins his Chelsea career (the club signed him last summer, but he remained at Palmeiras on loan in 2024-25). Chelsea vs. Palmeiras Betting Odds Below are the odds in the two most popular markets for soccer matches: three-way moneyline and match winner. Club World Cup QF Moneyline Odds: Chelsea vs. Palmeiras The DraftKings, FanDuel and bet365 three-way moneyline odds below apply to today's result after 90 minutes, plus stoppage time.

Palmeiras won its round of 16 matchup vs. Botafogo in extra time after a 0-0 battle through 90 minutes. Chelsea nearly shut out Benfica, but surrendered a PK that Angel Di Maria converted for the equalizer deep in stoppage time. Given that Chelsea have shut out two of their four opponents in this competition and nearly recorded a third clean sheet vs. Benfica, this should be another low-scoring match, with Chelsea controlling possession. Read more Announcement: Newsweek Sports Betting Newsletter launching July 11 Palmeiras have been stout in their own right, shutting out Porto, Al Ahly and Botafogo in this competition. There are a couple of ways to cash in if this game ends up being as low-scoring as it promises to be based on how these teams have played so far. Our favorite is Halftime Draw (available at +105 at DK, FD and bet365), which is tempting in what should be a close, hard-fought match for at least the opening 45 minutes. Another solid bet is Chelsea to win in 90 minutes, especially at plus-money over at DraftKings.
