From 'finish with Jurgen' to Man City and Guardiola
Pepijn Lijnders once called Jurgen Klopp his "proper football brother," but now he has joined one of his biggest rivals in Pep Guardiola. Manchester City have confirmed Lijnders will become a part of Guardiola's coaching staff, along with former Liverpool opposition analyst James French. Advertisement The 42-year-old was Klopp's assistant when Liverpool won the Premier League and Champions League, standing down from the role when the German left the club in 2024. Speaking last year, Lijnders told the Liverpool club website: "I always said I will finish with Jurgen; the moment I will not assist anyone else, that's the moment I will go and I will manage. That was always the case. "I owe this club everything. They don't owe me anything, to be honest. It's 10 years full of dedication. So when we [me and Jurgen] spoke, it was clear for me, I go and manage, and we end this project together," he added. Lijnders has had two spells as a manager - briefly leaving Liverpool in 2018 to manage NEC in the Netherlands, before a spell with Red Bull Salzburg at the beginning of last season, with both culminating in his dismissal. Without a club since December, the Dutchman has taken the step back from being a manager and once again will be an assistant.

Newcastle Knights urged to backflip after brutal call to part ways with Origin hero
The Newcastle Knights and coach Adam O'Brien must surely be having second thoughts about the future of former State of Origin star Dane Gagai after Thursday night's stunning golden point win over Manly. The Knights came back from a 16-0 halftime deficit that saw them booed off the ground by their own fans, running in four tries to one after the break, before snatching the 26-22 win in extra time. At the heart of the epic come-from-behind victory was former Maroons star Gagai, who was arguably the best player on the field for the home side. Gagai had 10 tackle busts, three line break assists, a try assist and ran for 169 metres in Newcastle's victory, proving a handful for Manly's defence every time he touched the footy. The veteran centre has been one of the most consistent performers for the Knights over several seasons and showed his value to the Knights once again on Thursday night. But Maroons hero Gagai - who has played 22 Origin games for his state - is facing the prospect of being out of the Knights, amid reports the club is unwilling to take up his $400,000 team option for next season. Gagai has a team option to remain at the Knights in 2026 but reports that the club is unwilling to stump up the $400,000 to extend his contract. Such a figure appears more than reasonable for a player of Gagai's pedigree, who continues to punch out impressive performances as one of the NRL's most consistent centres. And for a 300-game player that only last year featured in Origin for the Maroons, it doesn't appear to make a whole lot of sense. But unless the 34-year-old is willing to take a pay cut to remain at the Hunter, it appears as though his future lies elsewhere beyond this season. Newcastle's hands are somewhat tied by salary cap constraints, with captain Kalyn Ponga on a $1.4 million per season deal and the club signing Eels playmaker Dylan Brown for next year, on a whopping 10-year, $13 million contract. Back-up halfback Jackson Hastings is also on big money but won't be at the club next season after O'Brien confirmed his contract wouldn't be extended. And the Knights are also set to lose prop Leo Thompson to the Bulldogs in 2026, with the future of English second-rower Kai Pearce-Paul also under a cloud. RELATED: Door ajar for Reece Walsh as Ponga on cusp of State of Origin ban Madge speaks on Cobbo axing as Broncos make key signing And while freeing up cap space to upgrade existing player contracts and chase other signings makes sense from a Newcastle perspective, many Knights fans believe the club should re-think its decision around Gagai. It's understood the veteran's management have already started sounding out rival NRL clubs for their interest in the veteran centre. Even if Gagai were to accept a downgrade on his current deal, the Knights are reportedly considering other options anyway, with the likes of James Schiller vying for a permanent centre role and exciting young outside back Fletcher Hunt coming through the ranks. But with Bradman Best currently sidelined and the gun centre having a chequered injury history, the Gagai decision is viewed by many fans as a head-scratcher from the Knights' top brass. Disappointing news re Gagz, still playing well enough for another 12-months imo. — Julian Vella (@vella_jay) June 5, 2025 They'll have to revisit that Gagai option after tonight! — Matt Blake (@MattyBlake1) June 5, 2025 We seem to be clearing a lot of cap space. I hope there's a plan. The Gags decision is surprising. — Duggo (@MJ_Duggos) June 5, 2025 I honestly don't understand the thought process about recruitment…we seem to want to let go of all our experienced players and leaders, gags, dsaf, Leo Thompson leaving Elliot & frizell maybe? Is this just the effects of salary cap? brown signing seems like a way to keep kp? — Irene (@IreneTheo_) June 5, 2025 Dane Gagai was heavily involved, playing a key role in the @NRLKnights come from behind win and was pretty good with the boot kicking 3/4 crucial conversions to setup a memorable Knights victory. #NRLKnightsManly #NRL — Seaside Mero (@local_navigator) June 5, 2025
