Inzaghi becomes Al Hilal head coach after Inter Milan exit
PA Media/dpa London Saudi Pro League club Al Hilal have appointed Simone Inzaghi as their new head coach in the wake of his departure from Inter Milan days after defeat in the Champions League final. The 49-year-old Italian has signed a two-year contract and will lead Al Hilal into their Club World Cup campaign in the United States next month. A statement on Al Hilal's official website said: 'The board of directors of Al Hilal Club Company, headed by His Excellency Mr Fahd bin Saad bin Nafel, has completed the contracting procedures with the Italian coach Simone Inzaghi, coming from the Italian club Inter Milan to lead the technical helm of Al Hilal first football team. 'This is with a two-year contract until the end of the 2026/2027 sports season. 'Inzaghi will soon begin supervising the first team's training at the club's headquarters in Riyadh in preparation for the 2025 Club World Cup in the United States of America, which will begin on Sunday, June 15. 'Al Hilal will face Real Madrid in its first match in the tournament, which will be held on Wednesday, June 18, in Miami, USA.' Inzaghi left his job at the San Siro on Tuesday following Saturday's 5-0 Champions League final defeat by Paris St Germain in Munich. He had taken over Inter, who relinquished their Serie A title to Napoli on May 23, in July 2021 and won six trophies during his time at the helm.

Liverpool turn down Barca's approach for winger Diaz: Report
PAMedia/dpa London Liverpool have rebuffed an approach by Barcelona for winger Luis Diaz. The Colombia international has been a target for the La Liga champions for some time, although he has also been attracting interest from Saudi Pro League side Al-Nassr. Only last month Barça's sporting director Deco publicly named Diaz, and Manchester United's Marcus Rashford, when talking about their transfer plans. However, the PA news agency understands when the Catalan club made an approach to Liverpool on Wednesday they were told they had no intention of selling. Diaz turned 28 in January and has two years remaining on his current deal but it is believed there are currently no plans to open negotiations on any extension. However, with Darwin Nunez expected to depart this summer and the future of Federico Chiesa in doubt after a frustrating debut season in which he made just 14 appearances, Arne Slot's Premier League-winning forward line already looks like losing two of its members. The arrival of Florian Wirtz, with discussions ongoing with Bayer Leverkusen over the transfer fee after a recent £109 million ($148.3 million) bid was rejected, will likely offset the impact of that - especially as Nunez and Chiesa contributed just nine goals between them. But it is understood potentially losing a third member of the attack would only be sanctioned if there was a bid which allows Liverpool to significantly improve the team or if the player agitated for a move. Last month Diaz told American-Spanish television channel Telemundo: 'For me, I'd stay however many years it takes.' Liverpool have already recruited Jeremie Frimpong from Leverkusen to strengthen their right side following the departure of Trent Alexander-Arnold and are looking to bolster the left with a move for Bournemouth defender Milos Kerkez.
