Luka Modric, Santiago Gimenez, and Christian Pulisic headline the talking points as Milan prepares for its Serie A clash against Udinese on Saturday evening.

At a time when Erling Haaland, Kylian Mbappe, and Harry Kane are firing on all cylinders for their clubs, a different striker has stolen the spotlight.

This week, one of the nation’s most legendary figures delivered a 10-word message that has everyone talking, particularly when it comes to Neymar Jr.’s role at the tournament.

Would he stay in Catalonia, or head back to Manchester United next season? The answer may have just been revealed — and it has major implications for both clubs.

The stage is set in Paris as the world prepares to discover who will be crowned the best player on the planet.

Is Ruben Amorim already regretting his harsh decision? That is the question on many fans’ lips as Marcus Rashford lit up St. James’ Park with a sensational performance in Barcelona’s Champions League opener.

Christian Pulisic has been a substitute for Milan in their last two games, but will he be named to the starting lineup this time?

But while Modric has been stealing the headlines, it has now been revealed that the Rossoneri’s management seriously considered another major addition — one of Modric’s long-time Real Madrid teammates — only for the deal to fall through at the final stage.

With a brace that left the visitors stunned, Harry Kane not only powered his side to victory but also earned his place among some of soccer’s greatest names — Cristiano Ronaldo and Neymar — by entering an exclusive Champions League club.

Ruben Amorim, who arrived to much fanfare, now finds himself in the spotlight — and the question many are asking is how costly it would be for the club to walk away from the Portuguese tactician.

There’s a key stat that underscores not only Christian Pulisic's importance to Milan but also how much the team leans on him when it matters most.

All eyes were set on the mouth-watering reunion of Kevin De Bruyne with his former club, but Napoli will have to take on this heavyweight challenge without their star striker, Romelu Lukaku.

The 18-year-old Ballon d’Or candidate has been one of Barcelona’s most decisive players over the past year, and his absence is seen as a major blow to the Blaugrana’s hopes of getting off to a winning start in Europe.

Inter’s Champions League opener has been hit by a major blow: Lautaro Martínez will not start against Ajax at the Johan Cruyff ArenA. 

As the players made their way off the pitch, one of Madrid’s key attackers was seen sitting with ice strapped around his knee — a detail that immediately sparked concerns ahead of a demanding run of fixtures.
