Peseiro to leave Super Eagles, agrees deal to take over as coach of Zamalek
The future of the head of the technical crew of senior national team of Nigeria Jose Peseiro appears to be away from the team with reports in Egypt circulating that he has agreed to take over as coach of Zamalek, OwnGoalNigeria.com reports.
Peseiro’s deal as the coach of the Nigerian team will expire after the Africa Cup of Nations next year, but it will be extended if he gets to the final of the tournament. That will likely not be the case if news coming out of Egypt is anything to go by.

According to the reports, the game against Zimbabwe in the world cup qualifiers which Nigeria drew 1-1 will be his last as coach of the team with a deal in place for him to take over the vacant position of the Egyptian side.
The coach is not entirely new to coaching in Egypt as he had a short stint with Al Ahly. For now Zamalek are yet to deny the news making many to believe that indeed there are talks over the Portuguese taking over as coach.
His time as the coach of the senior national team of Nigeria hasn’t been the best with his team having just two points in the 2026 world cup qualifiers. Since taking over as coach he has lost 60 percent of the games of the team.

EPL: Aaron Ramsdale to join Arsenal’s rival, agrees deal
EPL: Aaron Ramsdale to join Arsenal’s rival, agrees deal
Barring any last minute changes, Arsenal’s goalkeeper, Aaron Ramsdale, will leave the club after three years.
Ramsdale, who has fallen down the pecking order at the north London’s club, will be plying his trade with Arsenal’s rival, Newcastle United, next season.
Ramsdale, who joined Arsenal from Sheffield United for £24 million in 2021, is poised to join Newcastle during the summer transfer window.
He established himself as the club’s first-choice keeper, making 78 appearances over his first two seasons.

However, his position came under threat following David Raya’s loan arrival from Brentford.
This season, Ramsdale has had little playing time, featuring in just six Premier League games under Mikel Arteta.
With Raya expected to secure a permanent move to Arsenal, the club is reportedly open to offers for Ramsdale, who still has two years left on his contract.
Newcastle have emerged as the frontrunners to secure Ramsdale’s services.
According to Sky Sports’ James Green, the 25-year-old goalkeeper has agreed to a deal that will see him move to St James’ Park.

La Liga President confirms Mbappe to Real Madrid move
La Liga President confirms Mbappe to Real Madrid move
La Liga president Javier Tebas says Paris Saint-Germain striker Kylian Mbappe will join Real Madrid next season.
“He’s Madrid’s next season, yes,” Tebas told Argentine daily sports newspaper Ole on Monday. “If they’ve signed a five-year deal, he has five seasons of opportunity (to win the Champions League).”
Mbappe is set to join a star-studded Madrid team led by Brazil’s Vinicius Junior and England international Jude Bellingham.

Los Blancos strolled to the Spanish title and are in the Champions League final at Wembley against Borussia Dortmund on June 1.
”(Mbappe) is one of the best players in the world, but Vinicius and Bellingham are there too, Madrid will have a great squad,” continued Tebas. “But that does not guarantee you will win leagues.”
Mbappe is PSG’s all-time record scorer with 256 goals, having joined the club from Monaco in 2017 for 180 million euros ($194 million).
With PSG he won six French league titles but failed to earn Champions League glory, finishing as runners-up to Bayern Munich in 2020.
By joining record 14-time winners Real Madrid, Mbappe would increase his chances of finally earning club football’s most prestigious trophy.
