• AC Milan faces Champions League crisis after Udinese defeat

  AC Milan’s grip on a Champions League spot has loosened significantly following a demoralizing home loss to Udinese, leaving Massimiliano Allegri’s side under immense pressure from chasing rivals. ​AC Milan has entered a period of severe crisis following a disastrous home defeat to Udinese, marking their third loss in four matches. The performance at San Siro triggered a storm of jeers from fans, with star player Rafael Leão bearing the brunt of the frustration after a lackluster display. This downturn has allowed Juventus and Como to close the gap on the top four. ​Manager Massimiliano Allegri is facing intense criticism for his tactical choices, particularly the failed experiment of playing Leão as a central striker in a 4-3-3 system. The club is reportedly considering an immediate return to a 3-5-2 formation to stabilize results. As Champions League qualification hangs in the balance, the media suggests Leão’s tenure in Milan may be approaching an end.

• Report: Leão’s anger at Pulisic forced Max Allegri intervention in Milan dressing room

  Tensions boiled over in the AC Milan dressing room following a 1-0 defeat to Lazio, as Rafael Leao reportedly confronted Christian Pulisic over a lack of service, forcing manager Max Allegri to physically separate the two stars.

  ​Rafael Leao’s frustration overshadowed Milan’s loss at the Stadio Olimpico after the winger reacted furiously to being substituted.

  The Portugal international reportedly took his anger into the dressing room, targeting Christian Pulisic for failing to pass in key attacking moments.

  Allegri downplayed the spat, noting Leao was “a bit annoyed because he had some situations where he could’ve had better service.”

  ​The confrontation highlights a growing crisis for Milan’s attack, with Pulisic yet to score a goal in 2026.

  Statistics show the pair have started together only seven times this season, producing just two goals in those fixtures.

  With the strike partnership failing to deliver, Allegri faces a significant challenge to restore harmony ahead of a critical run of Serie A fixtures.

• ‘Gone within 24 hours’ – Tottenham ‘will’ sack Igor Tudor today

  Tottenham Hotspur interim manager Igor Tudor is expected to be dismissed within 24 hours following a calamitous 5-2 Champions League defeat to Atletico Madrid and a historic run of six consecutive losses.  

  ​Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly set to sack interim manager Igor Tudor today after a disastrous 25-day reign.

  The decision follows a “shocking” 5-2 loss to Atletico Madrid, where Tudor’s tactical gamble to start goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky resulted in the 22-year-old being hauled off after just 17 minutes.

  Pundit Henry Winter predicted the exit on Sky Sports, stating, “Tudor will absolutely be the fall guy. He’ll go within 24 hours, I’m sure.”

  ​The Croatian’s tenure has seen Spurs lose all four matches under his guidance, marking the club’s worst run in its 143-year history.

  With the team now sitting just one point above the Premier League relegation zone, the Supporters’ Trust has called for “emergency action” to prevent a catastrophic slide.

  Asked about his future following the Madrid humiliation, a dejected Tudor offered only a “no comment,” signaling the likely end of his brief North London stay.

  Roma’s Wesley Franca and five other Serie A players have been hit with one-match suspensions following the conclusion of the league’s 27th round of fixtures.

  The Lega Serie A has officially confirmed a one-match suspension for Roma wing-back Wesley Franca following the Giallorossi’s 3-3 draw with Juventus.

  The Brazilian defender collected his fifth caution of the season at the Stadio Olimpico, triggering an automatic ban.

  Consequently, Wesley will be unavailable for Sunday’s league encounter against Daniele De Rossi’s Genoa as Roma continues their push for European qualification.

  Joining Wesley on the sidelines are five other players following the latest round of fixtures.

  Sassuolo’s Andrea Pinamonti received a straight red card, while Fabiano Parisi, Remo Freuler, Filippo Terracciano, and Lautaro Valenti all reached the yellow card threshold.

  Regarding the disciplinary action, league officials confirmed that Wesley “will now have to serve a one-match ban when the Giallorossi go up against Daniele De Rossi’s Genoa.”

• Napoli goalkeeper hits out at referee and VAR: ‘Today’s football is a farce’

  Napoli goalkeeper Nikita Contini has launched a scathing social media attack on modern refereeing and VAR following his team’s 2-1 loss to Atalanta.

  ​Napoli’s Nikita Contini has sparked controversy by labeling modern football a “farce” following a heated 2-1 defeat to Atalanta.

  The Partenopei were left incensed after referee Daniele Chiffi overturned a first-half penalty and disallowed a Rasmus Hojlund goal.

  Contini expressed his nostalgia for a more physical era on Instagram, writing: “How beautiful real football was… Real clashes, real hits, insults, real tackles, real refereeing.”

  Criticizing the current state of the game and the impact of technology, the goalkeeper added: “What a farce today’s football is. Football is a serious matter; otherwise, we might as well take up dancing.”
