Sir Alex Ferguson arrives at Champions League final with Gary Neville as £2m-a-year Man Utd role comes to an end
SIR ALEX FERGUSON is preparing for a new chapter - by watching Paris Saint-Germain attempt to write their greatest one ever. The legendary ex-Manchester United boss arrived at Bayern Munich's famous venue with Gary Neville as PSG bid to finally win the Champions league. 1 The French giants are taking on Inter Milan, just as 83-year-old Fergie bows out of his special role as United's global ambassador. It's not quite been the final flourish the Red Devils' most famous ever manager might have liked. He was in Bilbao to see United's 1-0 loss to Tottenham in the Europa league showpiece on May 21. And that's after he lost his £2million-a-year position at Old Trafford - as part of major cost-cutting from United's minority owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe. It certainly wasn't personal as Ratcliffe and his company unveiled nearly 500 redundancies. And there's also planned investment for the future - most notably for a new £2billion 100,000-seat stadium. Ferguson's glittering 26 years in charge contrasts with everything that has followed since his managerial retirement in 2013. Fergie guided United to 13 Premier League titles and two Champions league crowns. Undoubtedly the peak was the Treble in 1998-99 - three years before fellow club icon Neville arrived. Now the ex-England defender, 50, is a TV pundit - while it's unclear if Fergie will have another direct job in football.

Ex Bayern Munich Star Reassures ‘I'm 100% Fit' Ahead Of PSG Vs Inter Milan Champions League Final
Ex Bayern Munich Star Reassures 'I'm 100% Fit' Ahead Of PSG Vs Inter Milan Champions League Final Benjamin Pavard says that he's 'at 100% fitness' for today's Champions League final between PSG and Inter Milan. The Frenchman spoke to Italian broadcaster Sky Sport Italia, via FCInterNews, ahead of today's match. He gave his thoughts ahead of the biggest match of Inter's season. Advertisement Inter Milan defender Benjamin Pavard is in the starting eleven for today's Champions League final against Paris Saint-Germain. The 29-year-old had been a bit of a doubt going into the match. Pavard has not played in over a month. He suffered an ankle sprain in Inter's Serie A loss to Roma in April, and has not played since. However, that has been enough time for Pavard to return. Still, the former Bayern Munich and Stuttgart defender missed Inter's last few league matches, as well as both legs of their Champions League semifinal tie against Barcelona. Therefore, it's natural for there to be some doubt as to whether or not Pavard will truly be ready for this evening's match. Particularly considering the match's enormous importance. Pavard: 'I'm 100 % Fit' For PSG Vs Inter Milan Champions League Final MUNICH, GERMANY – APRIL 08: Benjamin Pavard of FC Internazionale reacts during the UEFA Champions League 2024/25 Quarter Final First Leg match between FC Bayern München and FC Internazionale Milano at Fussball Arena Muenchen on April 08, 2025 in Munich, Germany. (Photo by) Benjamin Pavard gave a reassuring update regarding his condition. 'I'm ready,' he said. Advertisement 'I've been taking care of myself,' continued the French international. 'And training with the rest of the group for a while.' 'Now I'm 100%,' Pavard insisted. 'It will be a great match.' Then, Pavard gave his thoughts on Inter's opposition in this evening's final. 'PSG are a great team,' he commented. 'They've shown that all along the way,' the 29-year-old went on. 'But so are we. It will be a great match.' Then, Pavard said that 'if we focus on the things we have to do, we can end the match with great satisfaction.' Meanwhile, Pavard said that returning to the Allianz Arena gives him 'a lot of emotions, certainly.' 'I've won a lot of trophies here,' said the former Bayern defender. 'Now, I hope to bring this one back to Milan.'

Man United and Arsenal 'fall behind Premier League rival' in race for £34m-rated Greek wonderkid, 18
Manchester United and Arsenal have reportedly dropped behind Brighton in the battle to sign Olympiacos wonderkid Charalampos Kostoulas. The forward, who turned 18 on Friday, scored six goals and provided two assists this season as he helped the Greek champions to a domestic double. Kostoulas has represented Greece at under-21 level and won the youth Champions League last year before regularly featuring in the Greek Super League and Europa League this season. The young star is contracted at the Greek giants until 2030 but has been linked with a Premier League switch, with United, Arsenal, Chelsea, Tottenham and Aston Villa reportedly all interested, as well as Bayern Munich and Real Madrid. But Brighton have raced into the lead and could be forced to smash their transfer record to secure his signature, according to The Sun. Olympiacos are said to be holding out for a large fee, in the region of £42-£46million, and will insist that a significant release clause is included in any transfer. Brighton's current transfer record is a £40m fee - which they paid for Georginio Rutter from Leeds last summer. The Seagulls previously offered Olympiacos around £30million plus Abdallah Sima for the in-demand attacker which was rejected, with the Greek side reluctant to lose one of Europe's hottest talents. But Brighton are pressing ahead and could complete a transfer as soon as next Wednesday, with the summer window opening for ten days on Sunday. It comes as a blow for Man United, who are looking to bolster their attack, with Rasmus Hojlund misfiring and Alejandro Garnacho and Marcus Rashford set to leave. Arsenal are also desperate for a striker after an injury-ravaged campaign which saw midfielder Mikel Merino forced to deputise as an emergency striker. Kostoulas could become the most expensive Greek footballer ever, pipping Kostas Manolas' £30m move to Napoli in 2019. Earlier this year, Fabian Hurzeler's side paid £22m for 19-year-old Stefanos Tzimas from Nuremberg, making him the second most costly Greek player ever. Christos Mouzakitis, another young talent from Olympiacos, is also reportedly being targeted by Brighton. While United, Villa, Wolves, Atletico Madrid, Juventus and Borussia Dortmund are also said to be monitoring the 18-year-old.
