Club World Cup: Five exciting young talents to watch
The FIFA Club World Cup begins this week as the expanded tournament takes to the United States this summer. FIFA's relaunch of the competition offers intrigue and there's plenty of talent on show. Ahead of the first fixture this weekend, we've picked out five exciting young talents to watch. Club World Cup: Five exciting young talents to watch Estevao Willian – Palmeiras Estevao Willian will head to Europe after the tournament having agreed to sign for Chelsea last year. The 18-year-old is regarded as one of South America's biggest talents and will hope to wave farewell to Palmeiras with a strong summer. Advertisement At just 16, he helped the Brazilian side to a Serie A league title in 2023 and was named the best player in the league in 2024. Earlier this month, he started Carlo Ancelotti's first game as Brazil manager and has already won five senior caps. Excitement levels around Estevao are understandably high and he is targeting a breakout tournament on the world stage. Rodrigo Mora – Porto Rodrigo Mora's step up into the senior side at Porto has been a seamless transition. The teenager was the top scorer in the UEFA Youth League in 2023/24, before leading last summer's u-17 European Championship for goals. Handed his first-team chance, Mora took it with both hands. Advertisement The attacking midfielder scored 10 goals and created four more in the Primeira Liga, despite starting just 16 times for Porto. Plenty of eyes will be on the 18-year-old this summer. He looks likely to bank one of Europe's best selling clubs a windfall in the near future. Wesley – Flamengo Wesley continues to be touted with a move to Europe and a strong Club World Cup could consolidate interest in the defender. A traditional Brazilian full-back with a desire to join the attack, the 21-year-old has racked up 130 senior appearances for Flamengo and made his senior debut for Brazil earlier this year. In 2024, he was named in the Team of the Year for both the Brasileirão and Copa do Brasil. Franco Mastantuono – River Plate Real Madrid have won a transfer tug-of-war with Paris Saint-Germain to land Franco Mastantuno, another South American starlet set for Europe after the tournament. Advertisement The 17-year-old broke into the River Plate team last year and has continued to thrive for the Buenos Aires giants. This season, he's scored seven times in 20 appearances, including a fantastic free-kick in the Superclásico against Boca Juniors. He became the youngest River player ever to score in the fixture and will soon link up with a superstar cast of talent in Madrid. Kenan Yildiz – Juventus Kenan Yildiz came of age in a Juventus shirt last season with the playmaker a positive in an up-and-down campaign for the Turin side. Yildiz scored seven times as Juventus secured Champions League qualification and was named in the Serie A Team of the Season.

Deloitte report: European football revenue grows to €38 billion
Liverpool players celebrate on the open-top bus during the Premier League winners parade in Liverpool. Danny Lawson/PA Wire/dpa The European football market has grown by another 8% to a record €38 billion (€43.5 billion) in the 2023-24 season, according to the Annual Review of Football Finance published on Thursday by professional services company Deloitte. England's Premier League leads the way again as the top five leagues in Europe contributed €20.4 billion, a rise by 4%, the other being Germany's Bundesliga, Italy's Serie A, La Liga in Spain and Ligue 1 in France. Advertisement The 96 clubs achieved an operating profit the second straight season, of €600 million, according to the report which does not include transfer income. Deloitte said that additional commercial revue was the main driver, which in England reached €2 billion for the first time and €8 billion across the five leagues. Broadcast rights revenue remained the biggest source with €9.4 billion. England led the way again with €7.354 billion in total revenue, a rise of 8%, far ahead of Germany (€3.797 billion) and Spain (3.764 billion). The Bundesliga figure was a 1% decline from 2022-23, as matchday and commercial revenue went down 2% each while broadcast rights income rose 1%. Advertisement Deloitte named as the main reason for the drop the relegation of Schalke and Hertha Berlin, clubs with big stadiums and fan bases. Stefan Ludwig, head of Deloitte's Sport Business Group in Germany, said he expects the big five leagues to top €21 billion in 2024-25, but then stagnation because done broadcast deals show that none of the leagues managed a significant increase. In general, he added: "The pressure on clubs is increasing. They have to generate additional income and at the same time cope with rising costs in order to remain competitive."

Xabi Alonso arrival having major impact on Rodrygo Goes amid Arsenal interest
Real Madrid forward Rodrygo Goes seemed destined to be the odd one out at the club this summer, with Los Blancos prioritising the form of Kylian Mbappe and Vinicius Junior. Their activity in the transfer market would also suggest that Rodrygo is not a central part of their thinking, but Xabi Alonso's arrival could alter the situation. Rodrygo was one of just five senior players that began with Alonso on his first day of training, and on the second day, there appeared to be a clear change in his mood. The Brazilian posted in capitals 'HAPPY' on his social media pages, with pictures of him training. As per Marca, Alonso has been paying special attention to Rodrygo early on, and one of his tasks is to get the 24-year-old back to his best form. He did not play the final month of the season due to a much questioned fever, and was left out of the Brazil squad earlier this month. Alonso convincing Rodrygo to stay The Madrid-based daily say that unless there is a surprise shift, Rodrygo will continue at the club. Meanwhile Sport had that the initial conversations with Alonso and early training sessions have convinced Rodrygo to stay at the club, after doubts about his role in the team. Image via EFE Arsenal interest in Rodrygo Arsenal hold an interest in Rodrygo, and Mikel Arteta is keen on a move for him. However they have not yet made a move for the Real Madrid forward, and the suggestion is that they will not break the bank for him. Price tags between €70m and €100m for Rodrygo have been discussed as acceptable for Los Blancos. Rodrygo's role at Real Madrid While relations with Alonso may have improved matters, ultimately it remains to be seen what kind of role he has on the pitch. Most of the projections for Alonso's preferred team do not have space for Rodrygo, and he is planning for a starting XI with Franco Mastantuono on the right. If Rodrygo is not a key part of the side, it would be a surprise if he were willing to accept a reduced role.
