Madrid – Saba: La Liga announced on Friday that Brazilian Rafinha, a Barcelona player, won the La Liga Player of the Year Award for the 2024-25 season, after leading the Blaugrana to their 28th league title. Rafinha beat out teammates Lamine Yamal, Pedri, and Robert Lewandowski in the final vote, as well as Kylian Mbappé, Vinicius Junior, and Jude Bellingham (Real Madrid), Isco (Real Betis), and Oyhan Sancet (Athletic Bilbao). The Catalan club had a fantastic season, and Rafinha played a key role in German coach Hansi Flick's team's success in reclaiming the league title from arch-rivals Real Madrid. He contributed 27 goals, scoring 18 and providing nine assists. The 28-year-old, who joined Barcelona in the 2022 season from Leeds United, finished sixth in the competition's top scorer list, which was edged out by Frenchman Kylian Mbappé with 31 goals. Barcelona, who won the domestic treble of La Liga, the Copa del Rey, and the Spanish Super Cup, dominated the league's awards, with Hansi Flick winning the Best Coach award and Lamine Yamal winning the Best Young Player award earlier this month.

Leipzig, Wolfsburg Compete to Sign Coach Jacob Neestrup
Berlin – SABA: Media reports have revealed that German club RB Leipzig is interested in appointing Danish coach Jacob Neestrup as the team's new head coach. Neestrup, 37, is also reportedly a candidate for the managerial position at another Bundesliga club, VfL Wolfsburg. According to Kicker and Sport Bild newspapers on Tuesday, Leipzig's sporting director, Marcel Schäfer, has reached out to Neestrup. Leipzig, who failed to qualify for European competitions for the first time, is seeking a new manager to replace interim coach Zsolt Löw. Löw (46) had taken over after the sacking of Marco Rose in March. Rose has since returned to assist Jürgen Klopp in the sports management team of the Red Bull club group at the end of the season.
