## Barcelona Run Riot in Seoul, Securing 7-3 Victory

**FC Seoul 3 - 7 FC Barcelona**

Barcelona put on a dazzling display against FC Seoul, reminiscent of their dominant performances from last season. Though Hansi Flick will undoubtedly seek tighter defensive organization ahead of the new campaign, the attacking prowess was undeniable.

Welcomed by a roaring crowd of 62,458 in South Korea's capital, Barcelona started with intent, showcasing a strong lineup that could have easily faced a top-tier opponent.  Their intensity and swift ball movement set the tone within the first 20 minutes.



**Early Goals Define the First Half**

Just seven minutes into the match, Lamine Yamal's shot ricocheted off Kang Hyeon-Mu's gloves, allowing Robert Lewandowski to tap into an empty net for the opening goal. Eight minutes later, Yamal capitalized on a loose ball from his own pass, firing it into the corner with precision.

While Barcelona could have extended their lead further, Dani Olmo missed a golden opportunity after Jules Kounde's precise inside pass. Seoul began to find their footing in the latter stages of the first half, testing Alejandro Balde's defensive capabilities on several occasions.



**Seoul Strikes Back Against the Tide**

Despite VAR being absent, Seoul’s opener through Cho Young-Wook would likely have been ruled offside as he was positioned behind Ronald Araujo during the run. A lapse in concentration from Lamine Yamal deep in Barcelona's half allowed Seoul to capitalize.  


Just before halftime, Yazan Al-Arab, slipping through after a clever backheel, surprised Barcelona with an excellent equalizer for Seoul. He finished the move decisively past Joan Garcia, leaving no chance for the goalkeeper.

However, the Catalan side quickly responded. Lamine Yamal, displaying his clinical finishing once again, cut inside and fired into the top corner, restoring their lead at 3-2 heading into halftime.



**Second String Shine Bright in the Final 45 Minutes**


Flick introduced a new lineup for the second half, replacing the starting XI with a mix of younger players and loanee Marcus Rashford. While the game initially slowed down, Andreas Christensen's thunderous strike from 30 yards ignited the match once more.

Roony Bardghji played a crucial role in setting up the goal, while Wojciech Szczesny saved the day for Barcelona, denying a Seoul forward after a backpass blunder.



**Barcelona's Goalscoring Spree Continues**

In the 74th minute, Ferran Torres capitalized on a pass from Jofre Torrents, calmly finishing past the goalkeeper at the near post. Two minutes later, Gavi unleashed a powerful shot into the corner, leaving Cho Cheol Won with no chance.



Teenagers Toni Fernandez and Guille Fernandez entered the field, almost linking up for a stunning fifth goal. However, it was Ferran Torres who found his second of the match, securing Barcelona's seventh goal.

Meanwhile, Seoul managed to pull one back as Jung Han-Min expertly slotted home from a solo run against Szczesny.



**A Dominant Performance With Room for Improvement**


Barcelona's ruthless efficiency in front of goal was evident throughout the match.  Their ability to create chances and exploit space pleased Flick. However, the three goals conceded highlight areas where defensive organization requires attention.

Flick will analyze these aspects further as he seeks to fine-tune his team ahead of the new season.

##  Atletico Madrid Sets Sights on Napoli Star After Lookman Pursuit Falters

**Colchoneros Explore Raspadori Option as Inter Milan Edges Closer to Lookman Deal**

Atletico Madrid is considering a move for Napoli forward Giacomo Raspadori following their unsuccessful bid for Inter Milan target Ademola Lookman. 

Lookman, currently playing for Atalanta, appears destined for a departure this summer with Inter Milan leading the race.  The Nerazzurri reportedly have an agreement in place with the player and are awaiting Atalanta's response to a €45 million offer.


While Atletico Madrid initially expressed interest in Lookman, the player allegedly favors a move to Inter.

**Raspadori Enters The Picture**

Sky Sport Italia reports that Atletico is now turning its attention to Raspadori as a potential reinforcement for their attack.  

Napoli is said to be seeking €30 million plus €5 million in add-ons for the Italian forward.


**Millot Also on Radar**

Beyond Raspadori, Sky Sport Italia also indicates that Atletico Madrid is exploring a move for Stuttgart's Enzo Millot.

## Transfer Market Heats Up: Vlahovic to Milan?, Sancho Saga Continues & More!

**July's drawing to a close and the transfer market is buzzing with activity.** After a brief lull, clubs are ramping up their efforts to secure their top targets. Here's a rundown of the biggest news stories:

###  Juventus Stuck on Sancho: Squad Clearout Needed 

Jadon Sancho is on the verge of joining Juventus! The Bianconeri have reportedly agreed to a four-year contract worth €6 million per year with the Manchester United winger and reached a basic agreement with United for around €17.5 million. However, the deal hinges on Juventus offloading at least two players before closing the transfer.  Weah, coveted by Marseille but valued at €20 million by Juve, and Nico Gonzalez, set to leave after a disappointing season, are both potential departures. Inter and Atalanta are monitoring Gonzalez's situation, while interest from Saudi Arabia (Al Hilal) remains unconfirmed.

### Milan Makes Move for Vlahovic: Bennacer Offered as Part of Deal

Milan has formally approached Juventus with a proposal for Dusan Vlahovic. The Rossoneri offered €10 million plus Ismael Bennacer, a player who greatly intrigues Juventus officials.  While Juventus' response was lukewarm, Milan is exploring other options including Adli, Chukwueze, Okafor, and Musah. Interestingly, the negotiations suggest Vlahovic himself has expressed interest in joining Milan. However, finding an agreement between the clubs and the player could prove complex.

### Inter Focused on Lookman: Nkunku Proposal Rejected


Inter remains steadfast in its pursuit of  Lookman. The Nerazzurri management dismissed a proposal from Chelsea involving Christopher Nkunku, sticking to their plan of acquiring the Atalanta striker. Beppe Marotta and Piero Ausilio are convinced that Lookman is their priority target.

### Napoli Weighs Raspadori's Future: Atletico Madrid Interested


Napoli continues its summer transfer activity with both incoming and outgoing players. While they have secured several new signings, including De Bruyne, Lucca, Lang, and Beukema, departures could significantly impact the squad's balance.  Atletico Madrid has expressed interest in Giacomo Raspadori, a key player for Conte. Napoli is now considering selling him.

### Roma Persistence with Echeverri: City Prefers Girona Loan


Roma continues to work on both arrivals and departures. The club has its sights set on Argentine talent Claudio Echeverri from Manchester City as a potential reinforcement for the attacking midfield. While Manchester City is open to loaning Echeverri, they prefer sending him to Girona, a Spanish club within their own City Group. Despite this, Roma sporting director Frederic Massara maintains constant communication with City, hoping to convince them to allow Echeverri to join the Giallorossi.  Echeverri himself is reportedly keen on moving to Rome.


### Lazio Forced to Trim Squad: Injuries and Budget Constraints 

Lazio faces a dilemma as they must exclude two overage players from their league list due to injuries and budgetary limitations. With Basic potentially staying, Gigot might be confirmed due to Patric's injury.  To comply with budget constraints, sales of surplus players and wage reductions are necessary. If Basic remains, then Noslin, Cancellieri, or even Patric could face exclusion despite the coach’s confidence in them.

### Dodo Renewal Stalled: Fiorentina Values Him at €30 Million


Dodo's contract renewal with Fiorentina is stalled. The Brazilian full-back, whose contract expires in 2027, received a renewal proposal from the club in January, but there has been no response. Barcelona and Juventus had shown interest in March, but concrete offers have yet to materialize. Dodo's agents have explored options with Galatasaray. Fiorentina remains firm on their valuation of €30 million given the remaining length of his contract.

## Williams Nets Stunning Goal in Man United's 4-1 Bournemouth Victory!

**Teenager Makes Impact Off the Bench in Chicago Showdown**

Manchester United sensation Ethan Williams has erupted after scoring a spectacular goal during his side's impressive 4-1 win over Bournemouth at Soldier Field in Chicago.  Brought on with 20 minutes remaining, the young forward seized the opportunity, expertly beating Will Dennis at his near post to seal a resounding victory for the Red Devils.

**"It’s Mad, I Can’t Believe It!" - Williams' Exuberant Reaction**

Williams' strike capped off an encouraging performance from United, who dominated the match with three goals already secured before his introduction. Speaking after the game, Williams couldn't contain his excitement: "It’s mad, I can’t believe it. It still hasn’t really sunk in, to be honest." He continued, "It’s a dream come true and I’m so happy right now. I’m thinking about all the moments, all the hard work I’ve been through... You know, I feel so blessed and so happy to be given this opportunity. To score, it’s mad. I can’t even explain how I am feeling, to be honest."

**Late Call for U.S. Tour Leads to Breakthrough Moment**


Initially not on the list for United's pre-season tour, Williams' late inclusion was a testament to his impressive performances in training under manager Ruben Amorim.  He shared, "It was last minute. I was kind of told I wasn’t [going] and then I was. I remember just… not really jumping around the bedroom, but I was buzzing." He added, "To be around it and be learning every single day is a real blessing and I’m just thankful for it all.”

**Loan Move On The Horizon?**

Williams' goal could have significant implications for his future. Earlier this month, reports suggested that United are considering loaning him out to continue his development. Having impressed during a successful loan spell at Cheltenham Town in the latter half of the 2024/25 season, Williams is expected to attract interest from several clubs.

**A Moment To Remember**


After netting the goal, Williams immediately reached out to his father to celebrate this special moment, emphasizing the importance of his family's unwavering support throughout his journey.  This unforgettable experience further solidifies Williams' status as a rising star in Manchester United’s ranks.

## Copa do Brasil Clash: CSA and Vasco Seek Glory on Home Soil

**Maceió Prepares for Historic Showdown**

Two clubs facing turbulent seasons, CSA and Vasco da Gama, will meet tonight for the first leg of their Copa do Brasil Round of 16 clash at the iconic Rei Pelé stadium in Maceió. Kick-off is set for 7pm (Brasília time), marking the beginning of a thrilling encounter with high stakes.  

The return leg takes place next Thursday (July 7th) at São Januário, with the winner claiming a prize of R$ 4.7 million.

**History Beckons:** This will be the third meeting between these rivals in the Copa do Brasil, and their second consecutive encounter in the Round of 16.  

* In 1992, CSA pulled off a stunning upset, eliminating Vasco after a 3-3 draw in Maceió and a 1-0 victory at São Januário. They faced legendary figures like Edmundo, Valdir Bigode, and Roberto Dinamite.
* Then, in 2002, Vasco suffered another setback with a 2-1 defeat away from home, but responded with a dominant 4-0 thrashing at the Historic Hill, courtesy of goals from Romário (two), Euler, and Léo Lima.

**CSA's Quest for Glory:** The Azulão do Mutange, having defeated Boavista, Tuna Luso, and Grêmio to reach this stage, aims to replicate their 1992 quarter-final run. However, they are currently enduring a challenging period. Despite reaching the Copa do Nordeste semifinals, CSA has gone five games without a win in Série C, leading to coach Higo Magalhães' departure. Currently ninth in the standings with 18 points, they face stiff competition from Floresta, who lead the G-8 on 20 points.  

Márcio Fernandes was appointed as the new manager last Monday (July 28th). Defender Jackson is sidelined due to injury, while Enzo is expected to return at left back after his suspension against Londrina. Islan returns to central defense.


**Vasco's Fight for Revival:** The Cruz-Maltino, having eliminated União Rondonópolis, Nova Iguaçu, and Operário, enter this match seeking to end a five-game winless streak, which includes their elimination from the Sudamericana Round of 16 playoffs.

Coach Fernando Diniz has Philippe Coutinho available once again, who last featured against Botafogo on July 12th. However, Coutinho will not start. Despite back pain, Léo Jardim remains in goal. João Victor is also back in contention.

## Colombian Star Luis Diaz Completes Medical at Bayern Munich

**£65.4 Million Transfer Seals Move From Liverpool**


Luis Díaz is set to become the latest addition to Bayern Munich after undergoing a medical on Monday, marking the end of his three-year stint with Liverpool. The highly anticipated transfer comes after months of speculation and persistent pursuit from Bayern, ultimately culminating in a £65.4 million deal that met Liverpool's valuation.

**Frustration at Anfield Paves Way for Bundesliga Move**


Díaz's departure follows stalled contract negotiations and growing frustration over feeling undervalued at Anfield. His absence during Liverpool's 4-2 pre-season defeat to AC Milan in Asia hinted at the uncertainty surrounding his future, with new manager Arne Slot acknowledging the situation while praising Díaz's professionalism in training.  

**Bayern's Persistence Pays Off**


Although Bayern's initial £58.5 million offer last week was rejected, Vincent Kompany's determination proved decisive. The improved weekend bid triggered Liverpool's acceptance, paving the way for Diaz to embark on a new chapter in his career. Slot remained tight-lipped when questioned about potential exits, deflecting questions linking Darwin Nunez's similar absence to transfer speculation.
