• Inter Milan to offer Cristian Chivu improved deal despite UCL heartbreak

  Inter Milan plan to reward manager Cristian Chivu with a long-term contract extension and a salary increase despite the club’s recent Champions League exit against Bodo/Glimt.

  ​Inter Milan remain committed to securing manager Cristian Chivu’s future with a new long-term deal.

  Despite a disappointing Champions League elimination by Bodo/Glimt, club president Beppe Marotta intends to offer the Romanian coach an extension until 2029.

  Chivu, who took over following Simone Inzaghi’s departure, has impressed the board by moving “one step away from winning the Scudetto” during his debut season in Milan.

  ​The 45-year-old was appointed last summer after Inter was “turned down by Como boss Cesc Fabregas.”

  Although he arrived with limited senior experience, Chivu’s domestic success has outweighed European frustrations.

  The hierarchy is now prepared to increase his salary to reflect his status. This move reaffirms the club’s faith in his leadership as they look to finalize their dominance in Serie A this term.

• Milan frustrated by four controversial refereeing decisions in recent Serie A matches

  AC Milan have expressed significant frustration to the Italian refereeing association following four major decisions that went against them during recent matches against Parma and Como, leaving the Rossoneri trailing league leaders Inter by ten points.

  ​AC Milan are aggrieved by several refereeing calls during their 1-0 loss to Parma and a draw with Como.

  Key frustrations include the lack of punishment for goalkeeper Edoardo Corvi, whose forceful collision left Ruben Loftus-Cheek requiring jaw surgery.

  The club was also angered by a VAR-overturned goal for Parma, with reports suggesting referee Marco Piccinini had not made a “clear and obvious error.”

  ​The Rossoneri also feel hard done by following incidents in their recent 1-1 draw with Como.

  Club officials believe Como coach Cesc Fabregas should have been sent off for interference, and Ignace van der Brempt deserved a red card for a tackle on Strahinja Pavlović.

  Despite these grievances, Milan decided against a formal complaint to the AIA, though they remain ten points behind Inter.

• Noni Madueke hails Forest’s Ola Aina as toughest Premier League opponent

  Arsenal winger Noni Madueke has lauded Nottingham Forest’s Ola Aina as his most difficult full-back opponent, citing the Nigerian international’s exceptional speed, strength, and technical ability on the ball.

  ​Arsenal star Noni Madueke has identified Nottingham Forest defender Ola Aina as his toughest Premier League opponent.

  Speaking to TNT Sports, the winger praised Aina’s physical and technical attributes following their recent top-flight encounters.

  Madueke stated: “I’m going to give Ola Aina his flowers. I’ve played against him a few times; he’s quick, he’s good on the ball, he’s always tough, mad strong too.”

  ​Aina, who joined Forest on a free transfer from Torino in 2023, has become a vital component of the club’s defensive unit.

  Despite Forest’s ongoing struggle against relegation, the Nigerian’s performances have caught the eye of the league’s elite.

  Madueke’s high praise underscores Aina’s quality, highlighting him as a player Forest may struggle to retain should they fail to maintain their Premier League status.

• World Cup heartbreak for Loftus-Cheek following severe jaw injury

  England midfielder Ruben Loftus-Cheek faces months on the sidelines and a race to be fit for the 2026 World Cup after suffering a fractured jaw during AC Milan’s defeat to Parma.

  ​England international Ruben Loftus-Cheek is set for surgery after suffering a fractured jaw during AC Milan’s Serie A match against Parma on Sunday.

  The midfielder was stretchered off following a collision with keeper Edoardo Corvi just ten minutes into the game.

  Italian reports state: “In addition to broken upper teeth and two cuts, the Englishman suffered a fractured alveolar bone,” leaving his career momentum stalled.

  ​The 30-year-old now faces a race against time to secure a spot in Thomas Tuchel’s World Cup squad.

  With the tournament less than four months away, the timing is disastrous for his international ambitions.

  Sky Sports Italia noted that Loftus-Cheek “will undergo surgery on Monday… and is expected to be out for several months,” likely ruling him out of upcoming friendlies against Uruguay and Japan.
