Dortmund have completed the signing of Erling Braut Haaland from Red Bull Salzburg on a contract until the summer of 2024.



Recall that the Norwegian was linked with Manchester United, Juventus and RB Leipzig among other top European clubs.

He will join his new team-mates on January 3 after moving for a reported £18 million ($23.5m).

Haaland, 19, has scored 28 goals in 22 games for Salzburg this season, including eight in six in the Champions League group stage.

“I had intensive discussions with the club’s management, especially with Hans-Joachim Watzke, Michael Zorc and manager Lucien Favre,” Haaland told Dortmund’s website.

“There was a feeling right from the start that I absolutely wanted to join this club, go down this route and play football in this incredible Dortmund atmosphere in front of more than 80,000 spectators. I'm already itching to get started.”

Dortmund CEO Watzke was similarly excited to beat a number of top clubs to Haaland’s signature.

“Despite many offers from some absolute top clubs from all over Europe, Erling has decided to join the project at BVB and the vision we have shown him,” Watzke said. “Our tenacity has paid off.”

Sporting director Zorc added: “We can all look forward to watching an ambitious, athletic and physically strong centre-forward with a clear goalscoring instinct and impressive speed, and we hope he develops further in Dortmund.




“At the age of 19, Erling is, of course, just beginning what we hope will be a great career.

New Arsenal head coach Mikel Arteta has stated that the players need to win back the fans at the Emirates as he prepares for his first home match in charge.





The former captain of the club added that the North London club is the biggest club in England.

Former Gunners midfielder Arteta takes his place in the dugout at the Emirates on Super Sunday against Chelsea.

"We need to connect the team with the fans again, I sense in the last few seasons there has been a big disconnection, and we are losing a lot of power. I said before that they are probably the most important part of the football club, and we need to get them on board, we need to convince them, and we need to be able to transmit what we are trying to do with the team.

"Hopefully on Sunday they will start to see some things where they think: 'OK, I take this on board, I start to like a few things!' The process is going to take some time, but I hope we can start to engage them again.

"I think many things happened in the last two seasons that have a strong say on the situation right now. What we can do is to make sure every time they wear that shirt, every time they jump onto that pitch, they give absolutely everything, and they have to feel there is a sense of what we are trying to achieve.

"If the fans can see an identity close to what they are used to seeing with Arsenal, they will be on board."


"It was incredible to play here as an Arsenal player. It's one of the most beautiful, exciting stadiums in the world. When this crowd gets going, and you feel them right behind the team, it's an incredible place.

"The moment you jump into this football club, you feel the pressure attached to playing here. The demands is to win, win trophies, to win every three days, be better than your opponents. Those are the standards here, and it can't be anything different. It doesn't matter what happened in the past.

"When you have the crowd with you, it's confidence, it's belief, you feel protected. You take the handbrake down, and you feel the gas coming out of your veins. You feel big. You can control the situation.

"This club deserves nothing else but excellence. It deserves the best every single day. Everyone who jumps through that door needs to realise that is what we're going to be requiring."

Liverpool attacker Sadio Mane was pictured with a phone that has a cracked screen.

Many fans have questioned why Mane who is among the top earners at Liverpool is using that type of phone.

Well, others have argued that he's a humble footballer who prefers to spend his money on his philanthropic works rather than luxury lifestyle.

Speaking with nsemwoha.com, Sadio Mane opened up on why he prefers to spend a big part of his earnings on charity in his homeland.

"Why would I want ten Ferraris, twenty diamond watches, or two planes? What will these objects do for me and for the world?

"I was hungry, and I had to work in the field; I survived hard times, played football barefooted, I did not have an education and many other things, but today with what I win thanks to football, I can help my people.

Stunning both on and off the pitch:

"I built schools, a stadium, we provide clothes, shoes, food for people who are in extreme poverty. In addition, I give 70 euros per month to all people in a very poor region of Senegal which contributes to their family economy.

"I do not need to display luxury cars, luxury homes, trips and even planes. I prefer that my people receive a little of what life has given me."

Nobody's more down-to-earth than Sadio. A top player always stays humble and remembers his roots.

Victoria Conteh has made history as the first female head coach of a Sierra Leonean top-flight men’s team.



.com/assets/v2/

Conteh signed a two-year contract to manage East End Tigers, who play in the Sierra Leone Premier League.



Conteh becomes the second female coach on the continent to coach a top-flight after Ethiopian Meseret Manni’s stint with Dire Dawa in late 2015.



Conteh, 45, is the only Caf ‘A’ licensed female coach in Sierra Leone.



“We’ve decided to appoint her because she’s qualified and that’s the bottom line,” East End Tigers’ owner Victor Lewis told BBC Sport.



“It shouldn’t be a man or woman thing; it should be about who is qualified to do the job.



“We’re happy to secure her services and we believe her appointment is good for the women’s game.



“She has a two-year mandate and we’ve given her the target to finish in the top four and we are very confident that she can deliver.”

Image source: CAF
Conteh’s first game in charge was against favorites FC Kallon on Saturday, December 21. She guided Tigers to come back for a 1-1 draw and maintain their record of having never lost a game to Kallon in the league.



Not new to the men’s game, Conteh is a former Sierra Leone International and Captain of East End Lioness. She also served as Head coach of both Sierra Leone’s U-17 Women’s team and Sierra Leone Police Women’s team, reports Cafonline.



Conteh is also a CAF Instructor.



“My success in football, as a female coach in a male-dominated sport has however been linked to my passion and knowledge gained over the years. I’m super energized now than ever and very much determined to bring more laurels to my new club throughout my 24-month contract”, she said during her unveiling.



Conteh further noted in a BBC Sport interview that: “I’m happy and proud about the appointment and I welcome it with open hands.



“This is a surprise Christmas package for me because I wasn’t expecting it.

“I know it’s not easy for a woman to serve as coach in the top flight in Sierra Leone but I’ll cope with the pressure and I’m determined to do well.”



East End Tigers have never won a Premier Division title in their history, but Conteh wants to change that.



"My target is to make history by becoming the first woman coach to win the top-flight. I’m determined to do what some of the men coaches can’t do.



“I know it’ll not be easy, but I have confidence that I’ll deliver. I have what it takes to do that,” she said.





If Conteh succeeds, she will be following the footsteps of Chan Yuen-Ting who is the only female coach to have won a top-flight title when she won the Hong Kong Premier League with Eastern in 2016.

“I hope this will be my stepping stone to a higher height,” she said.



“I hope to continue coaching in the top flight and my dream is to one day coach the Sierra Leone men’s senior national team Leone Stars.”

Model and singer Rita, wife of Man City ace Riyad, 26, was seen with her hand on the world heavyweight champ’s knee at London club Tape on Friday.


Rita and Algeria skipper Riyad, 28 — dad to her two kids — have agreed a trial split, and are living 200 miles apart.

A clubgoer said: “Rita bumped into AJ on her way out and he invited her to join him at his table in VIP.

“Rita, who was with a female pal, clearly thought AJ was incredibly hot. They then spent much of the evening laughing and flirting.

“He didn’t have a clue who she was. He simply thought she was a pretty girl and enjoyed their chat.

“But when the club owner pointed out she was Riyad’s wife, AJ got a bit awkward, and totally backed away.

“He explained he didn’t want to step on any toes or cause a scene, and that he’d be stupid to be seen doing anything in public. They left with friends at 3:00 am, but got into separate cars.”


AJ, 30, is the second boxer Rita has been linked to recently.

Rita and Riyad, who scored against ex-club Leicester City in a 3-1 win today, quit their Cheshire home after trying to patch up their four-year marriage. Riyad is staying in a Manchester penthouse while Rita is in a £2million pad in Buckinghamshire.

Another source said: “They still have a huge amount of love and respect for one another but are currently leading separate lives.

“Rita wants to concentrate on her music and the kids while Riyad is focused on his football. She hasn’t given up on the marriage, it’s just a case of taking a step back and seeing if they can work things out.”

Iwobi will be facing his former side Arsenal for the first time since leaving Emirate Stadium last summer in the Premier League encounter on Saturday early kick at Goodison Park as he told Sky Sports.

"My experience with him, when I was playing U-21s (at Arsenal) and the time he was injured, he will come and train with the U-21s,”

"For me as a player, he helped me a lot. He always talked to me, he told me to do my best and express myself.

"I’m sure he will be able to do that, he’s had success with Pep so I’m sure he will be able to share his experience with Arsenal.

"From what I’ve learnt from him, it’s all basic stuff and it helps the team a lot when you stick to the basics and do them well.”

Despite his easygoing mien, Iwobi did reveal that Arteta could be a firm character albeit for the development of the players and team in general.

"He (Arteta) will let the players do the basic stuff and have them enjoy their game. He's very firm but at the same time will give the players that freedom to express themselves and it will help the team," Iwobi concluded.

Iwobi became teammate with Arteta in the 2015/2016 season which was Arteta’s final season at the club where he played 150 games between 2011 and 2016 scoring 14 goals before finally retiring in 2016 after winning two FA Cups and two Community Shields in the process.

Sergio Aguero took over the duties of Mikel Arteta prior to Manchester City’s premier league clash against Leicester City to warm up the players.

Aguero stepped up to help the forwards practise their finishing.

Rodolfo Borrell, who is staying at the club despite being reported to be wanted by Arteta in his new job as Arsenal manager, was out early to oversee proceedings before the Leicester match and oversaw the passing and control routines that the players go through ahead of every game.

Aguero who was returning to the squad after a month out injured supervised the shooting drill which Arteta normally does, feeding the ball for the forwards to strike at goal and putting some pressure on them as they did so.

Aguero then dropped back so that he could have a few efforts on goal himself.

Guardiola has said that Borrell will step up as his No.2 for the rest of the season before the club will look for a permanent replacement for Arteta in summer.

“From now on Rodolfo stays with me, we’ve not had any approach from Arsenal for him,” said the manager. “He’ll step up [at City].”

“We’ll continue like this until the summer, with the people that have been here since three years ago. We’ll see what happens in the summer, what we can improve. I’ve not thought about names.”

The Korea Football Association announced on Thursday that Son, the attacking stalwart for Tottenham Hotspur, was voted the Male Player of the Year for 2019.

Son was also honoured in 2013, 2014 and 2017. The fourth award breaks a tie with three-time honoree Ki Sung-Yeung, who earned the award in 2011, 2012 and 2016.

Son topped the voting by the media and the KFA‘s election committee. Players were award points based on a top-three vote, and Son came away with 209 points.

Son became the all-time Korean scoring leader in European club football on Nov. 6 when he scored a pair of goals in a UEFA Champions League match to move past former Bundesliga legend Cha Bum-Kun's mark of 121.

Earlier in the year, Son helped lead Spurs to their first UEFA Champions League final. He scored 20 goals in 48 matches during the 2018-2019 season, one shy of his career high, and has 10 in 22 matches so far in the 2019-2010 season.

Based on a simulation done by The Sun, Arsenal will square up against Sporting Lisbon from Portugal which looks like a tough draw while Manchester United Cluj from Romania.


But first, see the full list of teams that have made it to the round of 32 pool and how they stand. The pool of teams have been placed in two pots based on UEFA co-efficient ranking. It is also noteworthy that the teams in Pot 1 will play away first placing them the advantage of playing the second leg at home.


Pot one:
Ajax, Arsenal, Basaksehir, Basel, Benfica, Braga, Celtic, Espanyol, Gent, Inter Milan, LASK, Malmo, Manchester United, Porto, Red Bull Salzburg, Sevilla

Pot two:
Apoel Nicosia, AZ Alkmaar, Bayer Leverkusen, Club Bruges, Cluj, Copenhagen, Eintracht Frankfurt, Getafe, Ludogorets, Olympiakos, Rangers, Roma, Shakhtar Donetsk. Sporting Lisbon, Wolfsburg, Wolves

This way no two teams in the same pot can match up, another exemption is that teams from the same country cannot clash at this stage of thecompetition. So Arsenal, Manchester United and Wolves cannot meet.

From the aforesaid, Arsenal are left with the following teams to square up against:

Apoel Nicosia, AZ Alkmaar, Bayer Leverkusen, Club Bruges, Cluj, Copenhagen, Getafe, Ludogorets, Olympiakos, Rangers, Roma, Shakhtar Donetsk. Sporting Lisbon, Wolfsburg.

While Manchester United are poised to meet any of the following as well:

Apoel Nicosia, Bayer Leverkusen, Club Bruges, Cluj, Copenhagen, Eintracht Frankfurt, Getafe, Ludogorets, Olympiakos, Rangers, Roma, Shakhtar Donetsk. Sporting Lisbon, Wolfsburg

The full simulated draw as conducted by The Sun

Rangers vs Basel

Frankfurt vs Inter Milan

Roma vs Malmo

Bayer Leverkusen vs Porto

Club Brugge vs Benfica

Ludogorets vs RB Salzburg

Gent vs Olympiakos

AZ Alkmaar vs Espanyol

APOEL vs Ajax

Kobenhavn vs Sevilla

Shakhtar vs Braga

Wolfsburg vs Basaksehir

Wolves vs Celtic

Getafe vs LASK

Sporting Lisbon vs Arsenal

Cluj vs Manchester United


If this plays out to be real eventually then Arsenal will be in for a serious headache as one will only hope they would have turned their situation around before February. Manchester will not have the same worries other than trying not to be complacent as the Romanian side can prove tricky, but in the end, all these are fantasy!

The official Europa League draw will take place on Monday, 16 December at Nyon, Switzerland from 1:00 pm Nigerian time

Recall that Unai Emery was fired due to poor results weeks ago and was replaced by interim manager Freddie Ljungberg.

Although, Ljungberg is yet to get things running with the London club, with only one win in his last three games.

The latest loss came from Manchester City as Gunners lost 3-0 at the Emirates on Sunday.

The UFC 245 main event saw Nigerian born, welterweight champion Kamaru Usman (16-1-0) retain his title in an eagerly-anticipated fight with Colby Covington (15-2-0), who was previously the interim champion of the division.

Covington fought with a broken jaw in Round 3 and finished the fight a bloody and swollen mess after being dropped twice in the final round.

"This one is not just for me but for the whole entire world right now. I heard all week, all month since the fight got signed that Colby was in my head and this or that. I'm telling you right now the reason I'm the best in the world is because my mind is stronger than anyone in the division" Usman said. after the fight.

Elsewhere on the card, Max Holloway (21-5-0) lost his featherweight title to Alexander Volkanovski (21-1-0) of Australia and women's bantamweight champion Amanda Nunes (19-4-0) beat Germaine de Randamie (9-4-0) for the second time to retain her belt.
