📸 Franco Mastantuono to wear Madrid's number 30 shirt
The same number that academy graduate Gonzalo García wore during the Club World Cup will now be worn by the 'Nene de Azul' in his first season with the Merengues. Franco Mastantuono is already going through the traditional protocols of his first day as a Real Madrid player.
A day that, as tradition dictates, begins with medical examinations. After that, the player headed to Ciudad Real Madrid, where he signed his new contract and received several gifts from Florentino Pérez, president of Real Madrid.
Later, his official presentation as a Madridista player will take place.

Chelsea players to donate portion of Club World Cup winnings to family of Diogo Jota and André Silva
Chelsea players have decided to donate a portion of their Club World Cup bonuses to the family of Diogo Jota and André Silva, according to The Athletic. Jota and Silva were killed in a July car crash in Spain. [Join or create a Yahoo Fantasy Football league for the 2025 NFL season] The decision, made jointly between the players and the club, will see a $15.5 million fund distributed equally among the players with an equal payment made to Jota's family. According to The Athletic, "the overall value of each portion tallies more than $500k before it's subjected to currency conversion costs from US dollars into UK pound sterling, alongside relevant employer costs, taxes and social security costs." Pedro Neto, who was teammates with Jota with Portugal and Wolverhampton Wanderers, signed with Chelsea in 2024. Chelsea won the expanded FIFA tournament last month after beating Paris Saint-Germain in the final at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey. The team's run in the event brought in an estimated $114.6 million to the club. Tributes to continue for Jota, Silva The soccer world began paying tribute to the brothers following their tragic deaths in early July. Moments of silence were held at matches, including the Women's EUROs and Club World Cup. Other tributes were seen at Oasis' first reunion concert in Wales and by players around the world performing Jota's video game celebration. Ahead of Friday's Premier League opener against Bournemouth, Liverpool have announced they will dedicate the cover of its match day program to Jota, who played 123 times for the club, and Silva. All players across the league will wear black arms bands this weekend and will take part in a moment of silence. Jota will also be immortalized with a statue at Anfield, Liverpool's home ground, and players will wear a "Forever 20" emblem on their jerseys this season in reference to his number. The No. 20 has also been permanently retired by the club, the first time that honor has been bestowed on a former player in club history. Jota's death led to a poignant moment of silence at the Club World Cup match between Fluminense and Al-Hilal last week, as Al-Hilal defenders Rúben Neves and João Cancelo — two of Jota's Portugal teammates — became emotional. The next day, Neves and Cancelo flew back to Portugal for Jota's funeral, in which Neves served as a pallbearer.

After the jaw-dropping Season 2 finale, fans are buzzing with excitement, eagerly awaiting news about Season 3. If you're wondering when Blue Lock Season 3 will hit screens and what to expect, this article dives into all the details, speculations, and updates available as of August 2025. Let's kick things off! When will Blue Lock Season 3 Release? While no official release date has been confirmed, the production timeline of previous seasons offers some clues. Season 1 premiered in October 2022 and ran until March 2023, with Season 2 following in October 2024 and wrapping up in December 2024. This suggests a roughly 18-20 month gap between seasons, pointing to a potential release for Season 3 in mid-to-late 2026, possibly around October 2026. Some sources, like posts circulating on social media, also speculate an October 2026 release, though nothing is set in stone. Studio 8bit is known for delivering high-quality animation, but Season 2 faced criticism for its animation quality. Fans hope the extra time will allow the studio to polish Season 3, especially for the visually demanding Neo Egoist League arc. Keep an eye on Blue Lock's official X page or Crunchyroll for the latest updates as they drop. What Will Blue Lock Season 3 Be About? Season 3 is expected to dive into the Neo Egoist League arc, a fan-favorite from Muneyuki Kaneshiro and Yusuke Nomura's manga. This arc takes the stakes to a global level, with Blue Lock's top strikers training alongside international U-20 teams from Germany, England, Spain, Italy, and France to prepare for the U-20 World Cup. Expect intense matches, new strategies, and jaw-dropping moments as Yoichi Isagi faces off against rivals like the smug German striker Michael Kaiser. The arc will also explore deeper character dynamics, especially the rivalry between Rin Itoshi and his older brother, Sae Itoshi, a star player on Japan's U-20 team. This sibling drama promises emotional depth alongside the high-octane soccer action. Fans can look forward to Isagi evolving his skills, new characters shaking up the roster, and cinematic matches that push the limits of sports anime. Who's Returning for Blue Lock Season 3? The voice cast is a huge part of Blue Lock's charm, bringing the characters' egos and emotions to life. Based on previous seasons, expect the following fan-favorite voice actors to return: Yoichi Isagi : Kazuki Ura (Japanese) / Ricco Fajardo (English) Meguru Bachira : Tasuku Kaito (Japanese) / Drew Breedlove (English) Rin Itoshi : Kouki Uchiyama (Japanese) / Matt Shipman (English) Jinpachi Ego: Hiroshi Kamiya (Japanese) / Derick Snow (English) New characters will join the fray, with Michael Kaiser, voiced by Mamoru Miyano, stealing the spotlight as a cocky yet brilliant striker from Bastard München. Sae Itoshi's expanded role will also add fuel to the fire. The cast's chemistry is sure to make Season 3 a treat for fans. Ahmedabad Plane Crash Aman Shukla is a post-graduate in mass communication .
