Vinicius Junior warned Real Madrid contract stand off could ‘backfire'
Ammon News - Real Madrid and Vinicius Junior remain blocked over talks for a new deal that could keep the Brazil international at the club long-term. The main issue focuses on the demands reportedly changing on the player's end with the two parties now no longer in conversations over a possible renewal. With two years remaining on his deal, speculation has ramped up over his future, with the Los Blancos No.7 the subject of constant interest from the Saudi Pro League, with figures of a €300m transfer fee and a €1bn contract being thrown around. In February, Vinicius reportedly met with Saudi officials to hear their offer. Yet it all seemed to have settled down in March as reports emerged of he and Real Madrid agreeing terms on a new contract. Vinicius is keen to stay at Real Madrid, as per Diario AS, with the latest indicating he is not contemplating leaving the Spanish capital and his intention is to sign a new contract. Real Madrid are keen to resolve the issue, as they believe there is no player on the market like him, despite rumours of president Florentino Perez being open to an exit if he can bring in Erling Haaland. Perez will be central to what comes next and former Real Madrid defender Rafa Aklkorta warned Vinicius not to take him on. 'Trying to pressure on Florentino Perez can backfire, as it did with Sergio Ramos,' as per Diario Sport.

Mohamed Salah declares himself greatest African footballer
Ammon News - Mohamed Salah has boldly declared that he considers himself the greatest African footballer in history, citing both his personal achievements and impact on the global stage. In an interview with France Football, the Egyptian forward was asked who he believed deserved the title of the best African player in the sport's long and storied history. Salah responded without hesitation. Who is the best African player in history? Me, but there are many. I could also mention George Weah, Didier Drogba and Samuel Eto'o, said the Liverpool star. Salah's confidence is backed by an illustrious career that has seen him become one of the most celebrated African players in the modern era. Since joining Liverpool in 2017, the winger has amassed an impressive collection of individual accolades and major trophies, helping to reshape the club's fortunes under manager Jürgen Klopp. Among his most notable team honours are two Premier League titles and a UEFA Champions League triumph in 2019, the latter marking Liverpool's sixth European crown. Salah played a pivotal role in that continental success, finishing as one of the top scorers during the campaign and netting the opening goal in the final against Tottenham Hotspur. Beyond silverware, Salah's consistency and influence in English football have been remarkable. He has earned multiple Premier League Golden Boot awards, broken numerous club and league records, and helped elevate the profile of African talent in top-tier European football. However, his comments are likely to spark debate across the footballing world, especially given the legacy of other African greats. George Weah, the only African to win the Ballon d'Or, Didier Drogba's unforgettable exploits at Chelsea, and Samuel Eto'o's trophy-laden stints with Barcelona and Inter Milan remain benchmarks of African excellence in football. Still, Salah's self-assessment reflects the belief of a player at the peak of his powers, with a resume that continues to grow. As he prepares for another campaign with Liverpool, the Egyptian forward shows no signs of slowing down—either on the pitch or in his ambitions.
