Enrique faces Guardiola challenge as PSG meets Man City in UCL clash

Luis Enrique credits Pep Guardiola with inventing arguably the perfect model of attacking soccer. He must now outwit him when Paris Saint-Germain faces Manchester City in the Champions League on Wednesday, in a match both teams must win to avoid the prospect of early elimination in the new-look format. It's a special game. Not just for the two teams but because I will come across a friend who I shared many great moments with as a player and a person, Enrique said on Tuesday through a translator. What brings us closer is our vision of football: To try and be better than the opponent on the ball, to constantly press the opponent. We can fine-tune our game but we have a similar way of seeing things. Guardiola rose to fame as a coach during a glory era for Barcelona, winning the Champions League twice and multiple other trophies. Guardiola's sides hypnotized opponents with a pulsating brand of attacking soccer led by Lionel Messi that was the envy of Europe. Guardiola then turned City

Erling Haaland praises his unique Manchester City contract extension

Erling Haaland's mammoth contract extension with Manchester City took the soccer world by surprise. Which suits him just fine. Of course it's a bit unusual and it's not normal. But it's something I like. In the end it was an easy choice," Haaland said Tuesday. I feel so happy, my family is so happy and in the end that's what I really wanted. One of the most lucrative deals in soccer covers 10 years from the start of this season for the 24-year-old Norway striker, who has scored 111 goals in 125 games since joining the club from Borussia Dortmund in 2022. The deal until 2034 is the longest in the Premier League, with Haaland reportedly earning around 500,000 pounds ($600,000) per week. The sheer size of it also seems to limit the possibility of him joining an even bigger club like Barcelona or Real Madrid in the years to come, unless one is prepared to pay a fortune. He's also fine with that. In the end I really look forward to spending many more years in Manchester. It's going t

Transfer news: Reported Man City target Marmoush scores again for Frankfurt

Reported Manchester City target Omar Marmoush boosted his transfer value with another goal for Eintracht Frankfurt to beat St. Pauli 1-0 in the Bundesliga. The Egypt forward grabbed his 14th league goal in the 32nd minute, taking one touch and another to send the ball inside the far post from a difficult angle. Frankfurt sporting director Markus Krsche acknowledged before the match that a club has expressed interest in the player, though he didn't want to confirm it was Man City. The English champion has been struggling of late under Pep Guardiola. Sky reported that Frankfurt was demanding an 80 million euros ($82 million) fee for Marmoush, but Krsche also declined to confirm that. It doesn't make any sense to talk about prices, Krsche said. Basically, we've said our goal is to keep this team together. Of course, we also said if there are exceptional circumstances, we'd have to think about giving away top performers. We're not there yet. It would be the second big transfer coup fo

Haaland misses penalty as Man City drop points in 1-1 draw with Everton

Erling Haaland missed a penalty as Manchester City was held 1-1 by Everton in the Premier League on Thursday. Haaland had the chance to set the four-time defending champion on course for only its second win in 13 games when stepping up for a 53rd minute spot kick at the Etihad Stadium. But he was denied by Everton goalkeeper Jordan Pickford as City's woeful recent run was extended. Pep Guardiola's team has lost nine of its last 13 games in all competitions. The draw means City picked up only its fifth point in the league since the end of October. Bernardo Silva's deflected shot gave City the lead in the 14th, but Iliman Ndiaye leveled the score in the 36th. The result leaves City sixth in the standings and 11 points behind leader Liverpool, having played two games more. Haaland missed penalty means the Norway international has only scored one in his last seven games. He headed in from the rebound, but the goal was ruled out for offside. City's grip on its title was further loosen

Premier League: Manchester City suffer body blow in loss to Aston Villa

Center back John Stones sustained a fresh injury setback in Manchester City's 2-1 loss to Aston Villa in the Premier League. The England player was substituted at halftime after his first start in a month due to a foot issue. That injury flared up again, City manager Pep Guardiola said. Guardiola has cited injuries as a factor in the four-time defending champion's alarming slump, which has seen it lose nine of its last 12 games in all competitions. It was confirmed on Friday that Ruben Dias will be out for up to four weeks because of a muscle injury. We have just one central defender fit, that is difficult, Guardiola said on Saturday.

Premier League Highlights: Man City beaten again as Pep's crisis deepens

Manchester City's stunning slump continued Saturday with a 2-1 loss to Aston Villa in the Premier League. Goals from Jhon Duran and Morgan Rogers at Villa Park consigned the four-time defending champion to a ninth defeat in 12 games in a season that is unravelling. Pep Guardiola's team has won just once during that run. We have to stay positive, even though it's difficult, and we have to keep working hard, City striker Erling Haaland said. Phil Foden pulled a goal back for City in stoppage time, but it wasn't enough to spark a late comeback. City dropped to sixth in the standings nine points below leader Liverpool, having played two games more. Villa climbed to fifth. City's remarkable fall shows little sign of stopping, with Guardiola admitting last week that he had not been good enough to turn his team's form around. Defeat meant the once-dominant City is without a win in any of its last eight away games in all competitions. While it looks unlikely to win a fifth-straight titl

Ruben Dias suffers muscle injury, will miss up to 4 weeks for Man City

Manchester City's troubled season was dealt another blow Friday with confirmation that defender Ruben Dias will be out for up to four weeks because of a muscle injury. Four-time defending Premier League champion City has lost eight and won just one of its last 11 games in all competitions. Manager Pep Guardiola has cited injuries to key players such as Rodri as a factor in his team's troubles and the loss of Dias compounds his problems. Guardiola said Dias' injury occurred during Sunday's 2-1 loss to Manchester United. After 75 minutes against United he felt something. He's strong and wanted to stay on the pitch, but now he's injured, Guardiola told a news conference. Goalkeeper Ederson is also a doubt for Saturday's game against Aston Villa, he said, but John Stones, Mateo Kovacic and Manuel Akanji could feature. Rico Lewis is available again after suspension. "The more players that come back the better, Guardiola said.

Man City captain Walker faces racist abuse online after Juventus defeat

Manchester City captain Kyle Walker said he was subjected to vile, racist and threatening abuse after the team's loss to Juventus in the Champions League and called Thursday on social media platforms to do more to stamp out the problem. City condemned the abuse, calling it disgusting and saying the club will be offering Kyle our full support. Walker posted one of the racist messages on his Instagram Stories, and wrote underneath: Instagram and the authorities need to stop this happening for the sake of all who are suffering this abuse. It is never acceptable. England's account on social media platform X said: "We are incredibly disappointed that Kyle has been subject to such abhorrent abuse on social media. Discrimination of any kind is completely unacceptable. We support strong action by the authorities and social media companies. City was beaten 2-0 by Juventus and has won just one of its last 10 games in all competitions, an improbably poor run of results for the winner of the

Champions League: Man City stumble vs Juventus; Barcelona, Arsenal win

Manchester City plunged deeper into trouble in the Champions League by losing 2-0 at Juventus, the latest setback in a scarcely believable run of poor results for the ailing English champions. City dropped to 22nd place in the 36-team standings, with only the top 24 advancing. Progressing to the next round of the new-look format looked a certainty before the season for a team that was European champion in 2023 and has won the last four Premier League titles. But not anymore as City manager Pep Guardiola battles injuries and an apparent loss of belief among his players. City has won just one of its last 10 matches in all competitions, with goals by Duan Vlahovic and Weston McKennie inflicting the latest defeat and igniting Juventus' qualification hopes. City midfielder Ilkay Gundogan described the team's problem as a "mental issue." Opponents "are able to break our rhythm with the smallest of things," Gundogan said on Wednesday. "They don't even need to do much and it has such a b
