Marcelo Bielsa began his reign as Lille boss in style with an opening 3-0 win over Claudio Ranieri s Nantes in Ligue 1.
Feted coach Bielsa spent a year out of the game following his swiftly aborted tenure as Lazio boss and it was announced in February he would return to France s top flight, having proved a hit at Marseille in 2014-15.
Ranieri is back in the dugout after his Leicester City fairy tale ended on a sour note six months ago and, after a goalless first half, the genial Italian endured a hefty dose of reality at Stade Pierre-Mauroy.
Junior Alonso opened the scoring in the 48th minute, crashing home emphatically from the edge of the area after the Nantes defence failed to clear.
Nicolas de Preville scored a hat-trick in the corresponding fixture o…
Barcelona will activate a purchase option on Sao Paulo teenager Gustavo Maia this June, according to the player s agent.
Maia s performances in the Copa Sao Paulo – Brazil s most prestigious youth tournament – at the start of the year drew the eye of LaLiga s champions and led to them agreeing to part with €1million for the option to sign him before the end of this month.
The 19-year-old winger, who was nearly sent on loan to Flamengo last year, became a father in December and overcame personal issues to force his way into the starting line-up at the Copinha, where he scored three goals in seven games.
Barca are required to pay an additional €3.5m to sign Maia permanently and his representative Danilo Silva is confident it will happen.
We are…

Bundesliga matches will be played behind closed doors from November 2 after it was announced Germany would return to a partial lockdown amid a significant increase in coronavirus cases.

Lautaro Martinez wants Inter to quickly move on from the disappointment of losing to Real Madrid and focus on a difficult match to come against Atalanta.
Antonio Conte s Inter are still without a win in Europe this season after going down 3-2 in the Spanish capital on Tuesday, a result that leaves them sitting bottom of a tightly contested Group B.
Martinez scored once and assisted Ivan Perisic s equaliser as the Serie A side rallied from falling 2-0 behind to draw level, only for Rodrygo to grab the winner for the hosts in the 80th minute.
There is little time to dwell on the result, however, as the Nerazzurri travel to Bergamo on Sunday for their final game before November s international break, a key fixture between two clubs hopeful of breaking Juventus…

Its signature perk is every seventh bullet ricochets. Based on the gameplay, the shots seek out other enemies and sometimes loop back to the original target. Microcosm is an Exotic trace rifle for the Heavy slot that deals massive damage to enemy shields. That’s adequate, but it should have more going on to warrant including in the slot over all the current options.
Finally, there’s Still Hunt, an Exot…

Carlos Tevez s ongoing dispute with Manchester City has cost him nearly 10 million pounds.
Now, in the latest saga, the disgruntled Argentine may take his bitter feud to the Premier League after he was hit with a six-week fine worth more than one million pounds for going AWOL.
