After entering the field from the bench against Benfica, Pulisic helped extend a streak that has followed him from his teenage breakthrough at Borussia Dortmund to his current chapter in Italy.

The 41-year-old Portugal captain is reportedly currently in Madrid, where he is taking some time away before his attention turns back toward international soccer and another demanding stretch with the national team.

The French forward has now completed a scoring set that had remained unfinished until his latest appearance, raising a fascinating question about how his progress compares with the Portuguese superstar's historic run in Spain.

The result raised immediate questions around the club, with the hierarchy moving quickly to examine what went wrong and what needs to change.

The 41-year-old could be facing an unexpected turning point in the coming months, with a prominent Saudi voice delivering a striking assessment of his situation after Al-Nassr suffered a heavy defeat.

After finally getting onto the pitch against Lazio and making an immediate impact, Pulisic had appeared to be in line for a bigger role at San Siro, only for Ruben Amorim to take a different approach.

While the forward’s international future has been the subject of plenty of speculation, Ancelotti has now provided a much clearer picture of what comes next for the Selecao as preparations for the next cycle begin.

The Portuguese superstar's position at the Saudi Pro League club could change significantly under the proposed ownership plan, although several important details still need to be finalized.

The Barcelona star has already made his case on the pitch, yet his latest moves away from it could prove just as important as the numbers beside his name.

Cristiano Ronaldo's Real Madrid era reportedly holds the key to Kylian Mbappe's Ballon d'Or hopes, with the French forward emerging as one of the leading contenders for this year's prestigious award. Mbappe faces serious competition from Harry Kane, Lamine Yamal, Ousmane Dembele, and several other stars, but there could be an influential force outside the pitch that helps shape the final conversation.

The American forward has already made his return after a difficult summer, but Ruben Amorim appears to have another decision to make as he prepares his team for one of the more demanding fixtures of the early season.

The Portuguese superstar started the highly anticipated clash at Hazza bin Zayed Stadium, but the night ended without another addition to his remarkable career tally.

From his childhood in France to becoming one of the world's biggest stars, Mbappe has carried lessons from the players he admired into his own career.

A new global transfer spending study has placed Al-Hilal above some of Europe’s biggest clubs, underlining just how aggressively Saudi Arabia’s leading clubs have invested since the league entered a new era.

The Rossoneri looked completely out of the contest during a one-sided first half, but a dramatic second-half turnaround earned them a 2-2 draw and kept their unbeaten Serie A record intact.
