UCL finalist manager admits Barcelona are being missed at Club World Cup
UCL finalist manager admits Barcelona are being missed at Club World Cup Simone Inzaghi, now leading Saudi side Al-Hilal, did not hold back when speaking ahead of his team's FIFA Club World Cup clash against RB Salzburg. Inzaghi, who recently guided Inter Milan to the 2024/25 UEFA Champions League final after beating Barcelona in the semi-finals, praised the quality of the ongoing tournament. Advertisement However, he also made sure to highlight what he sees as a major shortcoming: the absence of FC Barcelona. Al-Hilal opened their campaign with a 1-1 draw against Real Madrid, a strong result against one of Europe's top clubs. But despite the high level of competition, the Italian manager pointed to a missing piece. 'The Club World Cup has been fantastic so far. All the elite clubs are here. We are only missing Barcelona,' said Inzaghi as quoted by SPORT. Indeed a major absentee The Club World Cup features teams based on performances from previous seasons, which left Barcelona out of the picture. Barcelona have missed out on Club World Cup. (Photo by) Advertisement This is despite their domestic dominance during the current campaign and the fact that they went furthest among La Liga teams in the latest Champions League edition. Inzaghi's comments reflect the feelings of many in the football world who believe Barça's exclusion doesn't quite match the level they have shown this year. Thunderstorm delays and mixed match quality have already drawn attention during the tournament, but it is the absence of giants like Barcelona that stands out most to seasoned professionals like Inzaghi. It is clear that when a coach with Champions League pedigree makes such a remark, it is not casual. Advertisement For a tournament that aims to bring together the world's top clubs, missing a team of Barcelona's stature feels like a noticeable gap.

FC Barcelona Director Deco Fires Shade At Ter Stegen
FC Barcelona Sporting Director Deco fired shade at captain and goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen by ... More telling La Vanguardia: "I don't have to talk to him." FC Barcelona Sporting Director Deco fired shade at captain and goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen by telling La Vanguardia: 'I don't have to talk to him.' The German was reported by SPORT as wanting answers from the club because of what his camp believes to be a smear campaign in the local media. This came at a time when Barca was linked to Espanyol shotstopper Joan Garcia, and rumors spread that Ter Stegen would be forced out of his Camp Nou home of 11 years. 'No one has told me about this, so I don't know the situation,' Ter Stegen said while on international duty with Germany, when asked about possibly being moved on. 'I'm not worried. I know that I will be at Barcelona next year… If I remember correctly, and if no news has happened in the last few hours, we only have two goalkeepers for next season, Inaki [Pena] Since then, Garcia has indeed been purchased by Barca through paying his release clause, officially announced and then offered a six-year deal which he penned at the Joan Gamper CT. Showdown talks between Ter Stegen and the club don't seem to have been held just yet. And according to Deco, he doesn't owe the veteran any explanation. 'I don't have to talk to him. My obligation is to make the best possible team for the coach. This is not my business. In addition to that, there is no contract in which it says that you are going to play. From here it is the coach who makes his decisions and each player then has his ambitions,' Deco told La Vanguardia. That being said, Deco insisted that he won't force Ter Stegen out of the club. 'We made a decision to sign a young goalkeeper, which means he can play tomorrow or be on the bench or play in a year or two. We have expectations with Joan that then have to be fulfilled. Everyone who enters here starts from scratch, none arrives with an advantage over the others,' the Portuguese stated. 'I have great respect for Marc, but with Joan we had to make a decision for the present and the future. The coach, therefore, will have to decide. When a footballer really wants to leave, it's very difficult for you to stop him. But this is not an issue at the moment,' Deco then insisted. Ter Stegen's FC Barcelona days might still be numbered. Despite Deco's remarks, Ter Stegen's FC Barcelona days might still be numbered. In a season which ends with the 2026 World Cup, it is doubtful he will want to sit on the bench while other German positional rivals are playing regularly with their clubs.

‘I want to stay': John Stones moves to shut down Manchester City exit talk
John Stones has moved to shut down speculation about his future by stating he wants to remain at Manchester City, though serial injuries caused 'dark days' that made him consider whether to play on. The 31-year-old endured another injury-plagued season in 2024-25, managing only 1,134 minutes in all competitions and six Premier League starts. The defender, who signed in summer 2016, has never made more than the 23 league starts for City he made in his opening campaign. Advertisement Related: Jobe Bellingham strikes as Dortmund edge 4-3 thriller while Inter avoid shock at Club World Cup Before facing Al Ain in Sunday's second Club World Cup group game, Pep Guardiola again said he does not want a 'long' squad, meaning he wants to reduce its number. This has caused speculation that due to the checkered injury record Stones, who is out of contract next summer, could leave. But he said: 'I'm here, I want to stay here, I love it. I'm here to help the team, and I don't know if what's been said or speculated, but I hope that kind of shuts it down.' Stones admitted considering if he wanted to continue playing. 'Yeah, there's been points where you think, you've been giving all this effort, you dedicate all your life, especially how I approach or go about my life, and football, I give everything, on and off the pitch to be here or be ready to play games and [there] are the dark days,' he said. 'Everyone's been through them and think: 'why is this happening?' Advertisement 'You wish it would have gone a different path. All of us have been through different upbringings and challenges through life and what did we do within those situations, was it fight or was it give up? I was a fighter from a young age, in difficult moments, you have to look at the bigger picture and realise what are your morals, what you believe in, and fight to make it worthwhile.' Stones is not yet match-fit to face Al Ain at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium. 'I feel great and I'm excited to get going,' he said. 'It's difficult when you're injured, you almost work longer and more, so from that aspect I know the guys mentally and physically have had such a long season, [but] I suppose mentally for me it's been difficult dealing with the injuries and the process. 'Now I've put that behind me and will use this as a mini-introduction back before the new season and another trophy for us to hopefully win and get some game-time.' Stones is unsure why there have been so many physical set-backs. 'I don't know what the reason is, and we've sat with the medical staff, sports science, to try and figure out why,' he said. 'Some things can't be explained. Which is even more testing mentally when there's not really an answer. Advertisement 'I've been unlucky with some of the injuries that I've had, they were very rare last season, after speaking to specialists. Sometimes I think, why has it happened to me? But I've got to deal with that and move forward and try to adapt with how my body's adapting. 'I've been back in training a few weeks now, and that's been going great, trying to do extra running if I need to, if I need to try and get those levels up. Just those little, really small details have made such a big difference.' If City win they qualify for the last 16.
