Daizen Maeda opened the scoring for Celtic in their 3-1 Scottish Cup final win over Dunfermline Athletic to make it nine goals in seven games. The Japan international becomes the first Celtic player since Jorge Cadete, in 1997, to score in seven consecutive games - he scored 12 goals in that time.
Ousmane Dembele posted a video of his former Barcelona teammate Gavi after his goal for Paris Saint-Germain against Bayern Munich. The match of the week featured Bayern Munich trying to come back from its one-goal defeat to Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League semifinals. In the end, the Germans were left behind as Ousmane Dembélé scored the opening goal in a 1-1 draw. That led him to indirectly reference his former Barcelona teammate Gavi. While the most recent Ballon d’Or winner has already shown what he can do, proving his level last season with Paris Saint-Germain, he still seems to feel disrespected. Proof of that came in his celebration last Wednesday, when he made the famous silence gesture. But that was not his only message. Dembélé turned to social media to show his feelings with a video of Barcelona’s Gavi, in which the midfielder responds to critics in a blunt way: “A lot of people think I don’t know how to play football. And they have no f… idea. It’s true. It’s understandable. It’s football. Everyone thinks what they want.” El vídeo que Dembélé ha publicado en su instagram tras meterse en la final de Champions League 📸👀#UCLxDAZN pic.twitter.com/IvpDX8Aqdu— DAZN Fútbol (@DAZNFutbol) May 6, 2026 Dembélé after the Ballon d’Or There was some debate over who was the best player in the world last year. While Lamine Yamal and Kylian Mbappe had strong arguments based on their individual performances, Dembélé won the award backed by team success. What Dembélé has not done is relax after a fantastic year. Instead, he has kept his level high to lead the team to another Champions League final in its quest to repeat the achievement. Dembélé has played 19 matches in Ligue 1 and contributed 10 goals. In the Coupe de France, he played two matches and scored once. He also played one match without scoring in the UEFA Super Cup, one match without scoring in the Intercontinental Cup, one match and one goal in the Trophee des Champions, and 12 matches with seven goals in the Champions League, for a total of 36 matches and 19 goals. The final Even though Harry Kane’s late goal for Bayern Munich added some suspense to the end of the match, Paris Saint-Germain was the better team in the semifinals. In the other semifinal, Arsenal eliminated Atletico Madrid by one goal to also reach the final against Paris Saint-Germain. The final was set for May 30 in Hungary.
With Spain’s squad announcement for the 2026 FIFA World Cup just days away, Real Madrid are at risk of losing a 92-year-old record. Real Madrid are enduring one of their poorest seasons in decades. Having already failed to win the UEFA Champions League, Spanish Super Cup and Copa del Rey, they could also be eliminated from the La Liga title race this weekend. That context may also lead to the loss of a historic FIFA World Cup record once Spain’s final squad is confirmed. Real Madrid are in serious danger of having no players included in Spain’s roster for the 2026 World Cup, something that has never happened before. Since the national team’s first appearance in the tournament at Italy 1934, Los Blancos have always had at least one player representing Spain at the World Cup. Luis de la Fuente must submit a preliminary list of between 35 and 55 players by May 11. Then, no later than June 1, that group must be trimmed down to the final 26-man roster that will compete in North America. At the moment, the only Real Madrid player who appears to have a realistic chance of making Spain’s squad is Dean Huijsen. The center back has been part of De la Fuente’s call-ups since 2025, although physical issues affected his standing within the team to the point that his place is not currently guaranteed. Dean Huijsen of Real Madrid. The other Real Madrid player who could have competed for a spot at the World Cup is Dani Carvajal. In fact, he — alongside Marco Asensio — was one of only two club representatives in Spain’s squad for Qatar 2022. However, recurring injury problems have limited him to just one international appearance since September 2024, and his latest injury — a fracture in the distal phalanx of the fifth toe on his right foot suffered in early May — has effectively ruled him out of contention. The Real Madrid players who represented Spain at the World Cup Although Real Madrid have always had players included in Spain’s World Cup squads from 1934 through 2022, the number has varied depending on the era. The lowest total came at Brazil 1950, when midfielder Luis Molowny was the club’s lone representative. By contrast, some of Real Madrid’s most successful eras coincided with large contingents of players representing Spain. The legendary teams of the late 1950s and early 1960s reached their peak at Chile 1962, when seven Real Madrid players were called up by Spain. The same number also made the squad for Mexico 1986, including Emilio Butragueno. Real Madrid will still have many representatives at the World Cup Even if Spain ultimately have no Real Madrid players in their roster, the club will still be heavily represented at the 2026 FIFA World Cup through players from other national teams. Kylian Mbappe, Aurelien Tchouameni and Eduardo Camavinga all appear certain to be included in France’s squad, while Vinicius Junior is expected to represent Brazil. They would join Thibaut Courtois (Belgium), David Alaba (Austria), Antonio Rudiger (Germany), Jude Bellingham (England), Federico Valverde (Uruguay), Arda Guler (Turkey) and Brahim Diaz (Morocco).
After three years from his professional debut at FC Barcelona, Lamine Yamal has outperformed Lionel Messi over that same span with record numbers. Lamine Yamal made his professional debut at FC Barcelona at just 15 years old, and in the time since he has systematically shattered every record of precocity within his reach. Three years on from that historic moment, the numbers he has posted in that span surpass even those of Lionel Messi at the same stage. Back in the 2022-23 season, coach Xavi Hernández placed his trust in a group of young players as he looked to rebuild Barcelona amid a severe financial crisis. Yamal was among those who emerged during that period, making his debut on April 29, 2023, when he came off the bench in the 86th minute for Gavi in a 4-0 win over Real Betis, becoming the youngest player in the club’s history to appear in La Liga at 15 years, nine months and 16 days old. Three years on from those brief minutes off the bench, that teenager has developed into one of the best players in the world. Still yet to turn 19, with his birthday falling on July 13, Yamal, currently sidelined through injury, will have the chance to make his World Cup debut when the 2026 edition gets underway in North America. According to a report from Mundo Deportivo, across Barcelona and the Spain national team, Yamal has accumulated 12,928 minutes of action spread across 176 appearances. His production in those minutes has been equally impressive, totaling 57 goals and 55 assists between club and country. Gavi of FC Barcelona is substituted off for Lamine Yamal in the game against Real Betis. Yamal has already finished as runner-up for the 2025 Ballon d’Or behind Ousmane Dembele and claimed the Golden Boy award, but the accolades are only part of the story. His trophy cabinet already includes a Euro with Spain in 2024, two Spanish Super Cups, a Copa del Rey and two La Liga titles, with a third league title looking imminent, a collection that only hints at what may lie ahead in the years to come. Messi at the same age: a very different starting point Unlike Yamal, Lionel Messi did not emerge at a club in crisis. When he broke into Barcelona’s first team, he was surrounded by generational talents including Ronaldinho, Samuel Eto’o and Deco. His professional debut came on October 16, 2004, at 17 years of age, two years older than Yamal was when he first appeared, and with numbers that the young Spaniard has since surpassed. Measured against the same milestone of approaching the age of 19, Messi had accumulated just 1,954 minutes across Barcelona and the Argentina national team. His early output was solid rather than spectacular, amounting to 10 goals and six assists in less than two years of professional action. The gap becomes even more pronounced when matched against Yamal’s specific three-year timeline from debut to present. Over that same stretch, Messi had logged 6,612 minutes across 102 club and international appearances, roughly half of Yamal’s total, contributing 41 goals and 15 assists. While his goals-per-minute ratio was sharper, the overall volume and range of Yamal’s early impact stands in a category of its own.
While the club remains focused on current ambitions, attention has already shifted toward the next major trophy battle for the Saudi Super Cup, where unfinished business from a painful defeat still lingers. Cristiano Ronaldo now has another opportunity on the horizon with Al-Nassr, as preparations begin for a fresh domestic challenge in Saudi Arabia. While the club remains focused on current ambitions, attention has already shifted toward the next major trophy battle for the Saudi Super Cup, where unfinished business from a painful defeat still lingers. The competition carries extra meaning because of what happened in the previous edition, when Al-Nassr came close but fell short in dramatic fashion. For Ronaldo and the club, the next Super Cup offers a chance to rewrite that story. The Saudi Super Cup has become one of the most visible domestic competitions in the region, combining prestige with immediate stakes. Since its expansion in 2022, the event has featured the league champions and runners-up alongside the King’s Cup finalists, creating a stronger and more competitive field. That format means clubs often arrive in strong shape, with little room for error in knockout matches. Every game carries final-level pressure, which explains why the tournament has become such a valued prize. Goalkeeper Edouard Mendy of Al Ahli (C), and other players poses for photo with trophy afte winning the Saudi Super Cup Which clubs will play, and why the tournament matters even more this time A full roster of participating teams for the Saudi Super Cup has been released on the tournament’s official account. That announcement confirmed the full lineup for the 2026-27 edition, with Al-Nassr, Al-Ahli, Al-Qadsiah, and Al-Kholood all securing their places. The four-club format has added greater intensity to the tournament in recent years, turning what was once a single final into a compact knockout event. المتأهلون للنسخة القادمة 🔢✅ #كأس_السوبر_السعودي 🏆 pic.twitter.com/qAQdv1mEio— كأس السوبر السعودي (@SaudiSuperCup) April 29, 2026 The sense of anticipation is already growing because each participant enters with different motivations. Some will seek to defend status, while others will see the tournament as a chance to make an early statement before the new season fully begins. For Al-Nassr, the upcoming edition is about more than lifting silverware. It is about restoring momentum after previous disappointment and proving the club can prevail in decisive moments. Cristiano Ronaldo of Al-Nassr (L) walks on the field with Edouard Mendy (R) The heartbreak Ronaldo wants to erase The previous Saudi Super Cup ended painfully for Al-Nassr. Al-Ahli defeated Al-Nassr 5-3 on penalties after a 2-2 draw in the final, denying Ronaldo and his teammates what looked like a realistic path to his first major trophy in the Middle East. Cristiano Ronaldo of Al-Nassr reacts during the Saudi Super Cup final between Al-Nassr and Al-Ahli That defeat still resonates because the Knight of Najd had come within reach of the title before losing in the shootout. For a club built to compete at the highest level, such setbacks often become motivation rather than scars. Ronaldo, who has built much of his career on turning frustration into fuel, now returns to the same competition with another chance. The emotional edge surrounding the tournament is therefore impossible to ignore.
Reports suggest Florentino Perez is personally leading the search for a new coach, with the Portuguese tactician emerging as a serious option for the Spanish giant. Real Madrid could be heading toward one of the most dramatic managerial moves in recent memory, with Kylian Mbappe watching developments closely as Jose Mourinho’s name rises again inside the Santiago Bernabeu. Reports suggest Florentino Perez is personally leading the search for a new coach, with the Portuguese tactician emerging as a serious option for the Spanish giant. The situation has gathered momentum after another difficult season, with Real Madrid facing the prospect of ending the campaign without a major trophy. That has intensified pressure on current boss Alvaro Arbeloa, whose future now appears increasingly uncertain as the club looks for a proven figure to restore authority and winning standards. Unlike previous coaching appointments, The Athletic suggests that this process is driven directly by club president Florentino Perez, who reportedly wants to rebuild a project he believes has lost direction. Perez has long admired Mourinho’s ability to manage elite dressing rooms, create competitive intensity, and absorb pressure during turbulent periods. Those qualities are now seen as especially valuable with a squad containing major stars and high expectations, including Mbappe and Vinicius Junior. Several names have been linked with the role, including Mauricio Pochettino, Didier Deschamps, Jurgen Klopp, Massimiliano Allegri, and Lionel Scaloni. However, Mourinho’s familiarity with the club and his close relationship with Perez appear to have pushed him near the front of the queue. The release clause that changes everything One of the most significant details to emerge concerns Mourinho’s contract at Benfica. The Portuguese coach is tied to the Lisbon club until 2027, but Fabrizio Romano states that his release clause is worth around $3.5 million, making a move financially realistic for Madrid. That clause can reportedly be activated shortly after Benfica’s season ends, giving Real Madrid a clear window to act. In modern soccer terms, the amount is relatively modest for a manager with such a pedigree and experience. The Portuguese boss previously coached the Whites from 2010 to 2013, delivering one La Liga title, one Copa del Rey, and one Spanish Super Cup. His most famous domestic triumph came in the 2011-12 season, when Los Blancos reached 100 points and scored 121 league goals, breaking records in the process. Jose Mourinho, Head Coach of Benfica. What it would mean for Mbappe and Vinicius Despite the growing support from Perez, Mourinho’s candidacy is not universally accepted. Some voices inside the club reportedly remain concerned about the divisions created during his first spell, especially his well-documented fallout with former captain Iker Casillas. There is also fresh controversy surrounding Mourinho after comments made earlier this year following Benfica’s UEFA Champions League clash with Real Madrid. Vinicius alleged abuse from an opposing player, and Mourinho’s post-match remarks were heavily criticized in Spain. That history means any return would be bold, emotional, and potentially divisive. Jose Mourinho, Head Coach of Benfica, speaks to Vinicius Junior of Real Madrid. Meanwhile, for Kylian Mbappe, who arrived to lead a new era, the appointment of Mourinho would signal that Real Madrid is prioritizing instant authority over long-term experimentation. Mourinho has built his reputation on managing superstar squads, and many believe he would welcome the challenge of leading Mbappe, Vinicius, Jude Bellingham, and the next generation.
