FIFA has issued World Cup accreditation to Christophe Gleizes in a gesture of support for the jailed French reporter, who was represented by an empty seat during Gianni Infantinoâs news conference on the eve of the tournament. The FIFA boss said he hoped âthe only sports journalist currently imprisoned in the worldâ would be freed during the event.
Christopher: I have always been an admirer of Kaoru Mitoma and have desired for Tottenham to sign him long before Mr De Zerbi came along. In my opinion, Japanese players are hugely underrated and the traditionally 'bigger' clubs not coming in for them (like Maeda Daizen at Celtic) is strange.

Presnel Kimpembe opened up about the relationship between Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappe and Neymar at Paris Saint-Germain. For two seasons, Paris Saint-Germain had what were considered three of the best players in the world at the time: Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappe and Neymar Jr. However, the results failed to meet expectations, something former teammate Presnel Kimpembe recently reflected on. âIn terms of egos, it was tough,â admitted the French defender, who was also part of that squad, during a recent interview with RMC Sport. âWe have to be honest with ourselves, and even they recognize it.â During the two years the three stars played together, PSG had two different head coaches: Mauricio Pochettino and Christophe Galtier. Under both managers, the results were similar, as the club won Ligue 1 titles but failed in the UEFA Champions League, suffering Round of 16 eliminations against Real Madrid and Bayern Munich, respectively. Some blamed those failures on the incompatibility of Messi, Neymar and Mbappeâs playing styles, arguing it created a defensive imbalance for the team. Others, however, believed the issues were more related to the chemistry between them off the field, something Kimpembe appeared to acknowledge when discussing the playersâ egos. Presnel Kimpembe playing for PSG. âNow people will say it could never work because we didnât win a Champions League with the three of them, even though it was a legendary team,â the defender added. âIâm very happy to have played with them. Iâm very proud to have shared the field with players of that caliber. If someone had told me that 15 years ago, I would never have believed it.â Kimpembe speaks about Mbappe Of the three stars, Presnel Kimpembe had the closest relationship with Kylian Mbappe because of the years they spent together at PSG and their shared nationality, which also allowed them to play together for the France national team. Based on that experience, he gave his opinion on how criticism affects the forward. âThe media are very critical of him⊠Mbappe has always been criticized in Paris,â Kimpembe recalled. âHe grew up with that, so this is nothing new for him. Mbappe has incredible mental strength. Heâs very strong.â Finally, the former PSG defender expressed confidence in what Kylian can do despite such a hostile environment: âMbappe has already shown it, both at PSG and with the French national team. Even at Real Madrid. He is capable of leading the team and lifting it⊠Kylian is a truly great player, everyone knows that.â
