Former Barcelona midfielder, Arda Turan, appointed Shakhtar head coach
Ukrainian club Shakhtar Donetsk has announced former Turkey midfielder Arda Turan as its new head coach, replacing Marino Pusic. Turan, 38, has signed a contract until 2027 after taking unfancied Eyupspor to a sixth-place finish in the Turkish top flight. Next season, 15-time Ukrainian champion Shakhtar will feature in the Europa League first qualifying round having won the domestic cup earlier this month. 'I'm proud to have joined Shakhtar - a great club with a rich history and great traditions,' Turan said in a Shakhtar statement. 'We are deeply motivated to win trophies - both in Ukraine and in European competitions.' Shakhtar was forced to leave its home ground, the Donbass Arena in Donetsk, eastern Ukraine, after Russian-backed separatists seized control of the region in 2014. Its home league games take place in the western city of Lviv. It held its Champions League games this term in Gelsenkirchen, Germany. Turan retired from playing in 2022 after spells with Barcelona, Atletico Madrid and Galatasaray. He also won 100 caps for his country.

Ex-Liverpool star says player 'moved like Lionel Messi' but was let down by his attitude
Former Liverpool forward Ryan Babel named an unlikely player alongside Steven Gerrard as his most talented team-mate, likening the winger in question to Lionel Messi Former Liverpool forward Ryan Babel has named his unlikely former team-mate who reminded him of Lionel Messi. The Dutchman retired in 2023 after a career that spanned 10 clubs across six countries. In 2007, Babel arrived at Liverpool as a top prospect from Ajax. The Netherlands international was signed for £12million and made 146 appearances during his three-and-a-half years at Anfield. Although Babel occasionally struggled to live up to his price tag, some moments proved why the Reds splashed out on the young forward. However, when asked about his most talented team-mates, Babel named Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard alongside an unexpected player from his time in Turkey, who was reminiscent of Messi in training but failed to consistently deliver on the pitch. 'Stevie was the best I played with by a mile. His work ethic on the training pitch was so far above anyone else, and he was a real inspiration to me and really influenced my career,' Babel told BetMGM. 'I was very lucky to play with top-class players for both club and country, many of whom weren't big names but you would watch them in training and just be blown away. 'The one who stood out for me was Emre Mor, who I played with at Galatasaray. He was left-footed and honestly he moved like Lionel Messi – he was that good on the ball.' Mor is currently on loan at Eyupspor from Fenerbahce, scoring once and providing four assists during 15 games in the Super Lig this season. Babel only spent six months alongside the winger during the 2019/20 campaign, but Mor clearly made a lasting impression. 'Unfortunately, he has never really cracked it at one club, and I don't think mentally he's quite in the right place to be successful,' Babel explained. 'He would always point fingers at the manager and other players instead of looking in the mirror. 'If you saw him train and on raw ability, he was about as good as they come. His left foot was unbelievable, and it's a big shame he hasn't been able to show that on the big stage.' Mor, 27, has earned 15 caps for Turkey and started out at Danish side Nordsjælland before earning moves to Borussia Dortmund and Celta Vigo. He initially returned to Turkey on loan and sealed a permanent exit with Fenerbahce in 2022, but has since been loaned to Fatih Karagumruk and Eyupspor. Babel, who won the Super Lig with Besiktas in 2017, will hope Mor eventually begins to fulfil his potential before retiring. The Dutch forward hung up his boots two years ago, having won multiple major honours, though he failed to win a trophy with Liverpool. However, Babel praised the role his compatriot and former team-mate Virgil van Dijk has played in helping to lead the Reds to Premier League glory this term. The 38-year-old also celebrated the defender's new contract. 'There are many good defenders and Virgil is one of those, but there's something about him that's just different,' Babel admitted. 'I played with and against him, and his aura almost scares opposition players off. I think that gives him the X-factor versus just his footballing skills. 'He doesn't do things that we haven't necessarily seen before, but he doesn't make mistakes, and the one thing I always look for in a top player is that they make their team-mates play better – and he does that. Virgil does everything a good defender should do, but that's not why he's one of the best around. It's the things we don't see both on and off the field which make him special as a player and as a leader. 'It helps that he's playing in a winning team, too. If he played for a team like Arsenal, I'm not sure we'd rave about him as much as we do. Liverpool are very lucky to have him. 'It was crucial for Liverpool that they kept him. Arne Slot wants to build a team that can battle in the Premier League and Europe for many seasons to come, and Virgil is a key part of that. They'd be a much weaker team without him, so it's great he signed a new deal.'
