The Wigan head coach’s Scottish accent booms over the gentle hum of a projector in a darkened classroom at the club’s Christopher Park training ground. “That is the one thing that we cannot ever go against,” he says, pointing to a slide on screen. “The team is the most important aspect of everything we do.”Three rows of professional athletes listen intently, keen to learn not only what the day holds, but about the 10 months ahead.

Pochettino awaits talks over future with US teamFederation backs coach but leaves door openSpend any time around US men’s national team head coach Mauricio Pochettino and you’ll likely notice a medallion hanging from a bracelet on his right wrist. It is emblazoned with an engraving of Saint Christopher, the patron saint of travelers.It’s a detail that feels appropriate for Pochettino, or any high-level manager, really, all of whom are inherently nomadic. The Argentinian has enjoyed stability at a handful of stops but has also done his share of moving, having shepherded five different clubs prior to his arrival in the United States about 22 months ago.

After defeating Ecuador and Cape Verde, Ivory Coast secured their place as the group's runners-up in the knockout stage. Following their strong performances, they have climbed a few places in the FIFA Men's World Ranking ahead of their Round of 32 match against Norway. Despite arriving as underdogs, Ivory Coast managed to surprise everyone at the 2026 World Cup. After defeating Cape Verde and Ecuador, they qualified as the group’s runners-up for the knockout stage. Their counterattacks have been vital, creating major goalscoring opportunities. Thanks to their strong performances, they improved their position in the FIFA Men’s World Ranking, climbing a few places before facing Norway, their Round of 32 opponent. According to the FIFA Men’s World Ranking, Ivory Coast are ranked 31st place with 1,565.47 points. After their latest victory over Cape Verde, they have escalated two positions in the ranking. In recent years, they have managed to significantly improve their international standing compared to their 75th position in March-May of 2004. However, they have yet to match their highest-ever ranking, which was 12th in February of 2003. After several years without being able to regain their form, head coach Emerse Fae has managed to rebuild a very promising project with Ivory Coast. Despite this, they still remain behind their opponents in the FIFA Rankings. Ståle Solbakken’s team are ranked 23rd with 1,594.04 points, gaining several places compared to the start of the tournament. Nevertheless, Ivory Coast could spring an upset with a victory, shining on the counterattack. Ivory Coast have proven to be one of the most solid teams defensively. Conceding only two goals in the group stage, they will look to limit Norway in every attacking aspect. In addition, they are capable of making very quick transitions, breaking efficiently on the counterattack. Facing an opponent that seeks to dominate possession, they need to be clinical with the few chances they create to score. Franck Kessie #8 of Cote d’Ivoire celebrates scoring Amad Diallo and Yan Diomande set to shine vs Norway Despite their solid group stage, Ivory Coast once again enter the match against Norway as the underdogs. Without being an offensive powerhouse, they need to be very solid defensively, containing Erling Haaland’s attacking threat. With this in mind, Emerse Fae’s team keep Amad Diallo and Yan Diomande as their main attacking options, both of whom could make the difference in the Round of 32 clash. Ivory Coast base their attacking approach on counterattacks, so the transitions of Christopher Opéri and Guéla Doué at full-back are essential. If they can find Diallo and Diomande making runs into space, they can be decisive by dribbling and creating space to score. Although they are not the national team’s top scorers, they have created plenty of space for Nicolas Pépé and Franck Kessié, making them the team’s key attacking axis.
This has become one of the most important fixtures of the group stage, with both national teams chasing a place in the knockout rounds. Curacao and the Ivory Coast enter their final Group E match of the 2026 FIFA World Cup knowing that one moment could decide their tournament fate. This has become one of the most important fixtures of the group stage, with both national teams chasing a place in the knockout rounds. The Ivory Coast national team arrives with the advantage, while the Curacao national team is fighting for a historic opportunity on its World Cup debut. The stakes are extremely high: one side needs only a positive result to advance, while the other must deliver a memorable victory to keep its dream alive. The match at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia represents a defining moment for both teams. Ivory Coast can secure qualification with a win or draw, while Curacao likely needs all three points to continue its historic World Cup journey. In fact, the latter has already created one of the tournament’s biggest stories by earning its first-ever World Cup point. After suffering a heavy 7-1 defeat against Germany in its opening match, the Caribbean side responded with a remarkable defensive performance in a 0-0 draw against Ecuador. Goalkeeper Eloy Room became the hero of that match, producing a record-breaking display with 15 saves to keep Ecuador from scoring. His performance gave Curacao the belief that another strong defensive effort could put the national team within reach of the knockout rounds. However, Curacao cannot rely only on another defensive miracle. The national team must find a way to create more attacking opportunities against an Ivory Coast side that has shown quality and balance throughout the tournament. Ivory Coast looks to finish strong after dramatic Germany defeat Ivory Coast enters the match with confidence despite suffering a painful late defeat against Germany. The Elephants looked close to securing qualification after taking the lead, but Germany scored a stoppage-time winner to claim a 2-1 victory. The African side had previously opened the tournament with a 1-0 win over Ecuador, thanks to a late goal from Amad Diallo. That result placed the Ivory Coast in a strong position, and another positive result against Curacao would guarantee progress. Manager Emerse Fae has built a disciplined team that combines defensive organization with exciting attacking talent. Young winger Yan Diomande has been one of Ivory Coast’s standout performers, creating chances and providing a constant threat on the wing. The return of key defensive figures has also strengthened the squad. Evan N’Dicka is available again, giving Ivory Coast more experience at the back as the national team attempts to reach the knockout stage for the first time in its history. Livano Comenencia #8 of Curacao celebrates scoring his team’s first goal vs Germany. Curacao vs Ivory Coast: Confirmed lineups Curacao confirmed starting XI (5-4-1): Room; Brenet, Gaari, Obispo, Floranus, Fonville; Tahith Chong, Comenencia, Leandro Bacuna, Juninho Bacuna; Locadia. Ivory Coast confirmed starting XI (4-2-4): Fofana; Guela Doue, Ousmane Diomande, Odilon Kossounou, Christopher Operi; Sangare, Kessie; Amad Diallo, Bonny, Yan Diomande, Nicolas Pepe.
Milan has made one of the most significant coaching decisions of the summer by appointing Ruben Amorim as the club’s new head coach, creating fresh intrigue around the future direction of the Rossoneri and the role key players could have under the Portuguese tactician. While Christian Pulisic is focused on helping the United States at the 2026 World Cup, major developments have unfolded back in Italy. Milan has made one of the most significant coaching decisions of the summer by appointing Ruben Amorim as the club’s new head coach, creating fresh intrigue around the future direction of the Rossoneri and the role key players could have under the Portuguese tactician. The announcement arrives at a pivotal moment for Milan. After a disappointing end to the season, the club opted for sweeping changes behind the scenes, and Amorim now finds himself entrusted with restoring one of European soccer’s most historic institutions to the top level. Milan’s decision comes after a turbulent campaign that ended in frustration. Despite spending much of the Serie A season competing near the top of the table, a poor run during the closing weeks saw the club slip to fifth place and miss out on qualification for the UEFA Champions League. That collapse prompted significant changes throughout the organization. Massimiliano Allegri was dismissed, while several senior executives also departed as ownership deemed the season an unacceptable failure. The club’s American ownership group, RedBird Capital Partners, quickly identified Amorim as the coach capable of leading the next chapter. Welcoming our new head coach, Rúben Amorim ✍️ pic.twitter.com/N6JizMF9Fq— AC Milan (@acmilan) June 16, 2026 Amorim’s road back to the top The move to Milan represents a significant opportunity for Amorim. Before his brief and difficult spell at Manchester United, the Portuguese coach had established himself as one of Europe’s brightest managerial talents through his work at Sporting Lisbon. During his time in Lisbon, he built a reputation for developing young players, implementing a modern tactical system, and delivering major trophies. His tenure in England, however, failed to meet expectations. After being dismissed midway through the season, questions emerged about whether his reputation would recover. Milan believes the answer is yes. Ruben Amorim, Manager of Manchester United. The Rossoneri are convinced that the coach who transformed Sporting remains one of Europe’s most promising tactical minds. At just 41 years old, Amorim now receives an opportunity to rebuild his standing on one of soccer’s biggest stages. How it could impact Christian Pulisic The most intriguing aspect of the appointment concerns what it could mean for Pulisic once his World Cup campaign concludes. La Gazzetta dello Sport reports that Amorim’s preferred tactical systems, particularly his 3-4-2-1 formation, appear ideally suited to many of Pulisic’s strengths. ,Rather than operating strictly as a traditional winger, the American thrives when given freedom to drift into central areas, combine between the lines, and attack spaces behind defenders. Christian Pulisic of AC Milan. ,According to tactical analysis from the Italian outlet, the Portuguese coach favors two attacking midfielders playing behind a central striker. Those roles require creativity, movement, intelligence, and pressing intensity. Pulisic checks every box. Reports in Italy have even suggested that an attacking midfield pairing featuring Pulisic and Christopher Nkunku could fit naturally within Amorim’s preferred structure, thanks to their ability to operate in half-spaces and influence games between defensive lines. For the USMNT star, the coaching change may offer an opportunity to become even more influential than he was under previous management.
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.
After the dismissal of Massimiliano Allegri, AC Milan appeared determined to appoint Andoni Iraola as their new head coach. However, the Spaniard has reportedly rejected the Rossoneri’s offer due to a low transfer budget in the Zlatan Ibrahimović-led project. AC Milan had a disappointing end to the season, missing out on qualification for the UEFA Champions League. As a result, Massimiliano Allegri was dismissed, along with other officials, signaling a clear shift in the project. As the new leader of the team, the Rossoneri appeared to be targeting Andoni Iraola as their preferred option, as he would arrive as a free agent. However, the Spanish coach has reportedly rejected the Rossoneri due to the low transfer budget. The Rossoneri have offered Andoni Iraola a contract until 2029, earning €4 million per season. After impressing at AFC Bournemouth, the Spaniard is considered one of the most promising coaches in Europe, seen as an ideal candidate for the sporting project. However, he also has strong offers from Newcastle United, Crystal Palace, and Bayer Leverkusen. Despite AC Milan’s project being quite attractive, Iraola has reportedly decided to reject Zlatan Ibrahimović’s offer. According to Bilbao Hiria, a Spanish media outlet, Andoni is surprised that such a historic club has a transfer budget only a third of what is offered by Crystal Palace, leading him to turn down the Italian side’s proposal. However, they are still attempting to reach an agreement, but are not in front race to secure his arrival. Without access to the UEFA Champions League, AC Milan will be forced to reduce their transfer budget in the summer of 2026. According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, they would have only $117 million, needing to reinforce several areas such as right-back, forwards, and even wingers. With this in mind, Andoni Iraola would have very limited room for manoeuvre, making his squad transformation significantly more difficult. Andoni Iraola, Manager of AFC Bournemouth, shakes hands with James Hill. AC Milan may need major roster changes in the 2026-27 season Throughout the 2025–26 season, AC Milan showed severe issues in their squad, with very limited rotation in several areas of the pitch. Unlike Massimiliano Allegri, head coach Andoni Iraola has consistently relied on a back four, a major shift that leaves the team without natural right-backs. In addition, the attack remains highly unproductive, with several players not at full fitness. For that reason, they may need a major overhaul for the 2026-27 season. Both Rafael Leão and Christian Pulisic have shown themselves to be difference-making wingers, offering dribbling and explosive pace changes. However, they lack reliable backups, as Christopher Nkunku failed to impress and Alexis Saelemaekers played more as a wing-back than a winger. In addition, Santiago Giménez did not provide enough guarantees, meaning a quality striker signing could be needed. With this in mind, a $117 million budget could prove quite limited.
The final night of the Serie A season is shaping up to be one of the most important evenings in recent Milan history, with Christian Pulisic and the Rossoneri entering a decisive showdown against Cagliari knowing that Champions League qualification remains on the line. The final night of the Serie A season is shaping up to be one of the most important evenings in recent Milan history, with Christian Pulisic and the Rossoneri entering a decisive showdown against Cagliari knowing that Champions League qualification remains on the line. At the same time, another development surrounding the club has sparked fresh discussion about the American star’s long-term future in Italy. San Siro is expected to be packed for the occasion, with more than 70,000 supporters anticipated for a match that could determine the club’s direction heading into the summer. Milan sits in a strong position in the race for Europe, yet there is still little margin for error after a turbulent second half of the campaign. Massimiliano Allegri’s side arrives at the final fixture knowing that victory would secure a return to the Champions League after weeks of pressure and uncertainty. Recent results have kept the Rossoneri ahead of rivals Juventus and Como, but the job remains unfinished heading into the final 90 minutes. They earned a crucial 2-1 victory against Genoa last weekend thanks to late goals from Christopher Nkunku and Zachary Athekame. That result ended a difficult run and restored belief inside the dressing room ahead of the season finale. The coach is also reportedly fighting for his own future, despite growing suggestions that he could remain at the club next season. Napoli continues to monitor the situation closely, while Milan’s ownership prepares for major summer decisions depending on whether Champions League qualification is secured. Cagliari arrives with freedom and little pressure Cagliari travels to San Siro already safe from relegation after defeating Torino in the previous round. Fabio Pisacane’s side, therefore, enters the match without the burden of survival hanging over it, which could make the Sardinian club a dangerous opponent. Historically, however, Milan has dominated this fixture. The Rossoneri have lost only one of their last 41 Serie A meetings against Cagliari, while the visitor has not won at San Siro in the league since 1997. Christian Pulisic of Milan in action against Cagliari Despite the statistics, Allegri has repeatedly warned his squad against complacency. Milan’s recent struggles at home, including defeats in two of its last three league matches at San Siro, have shown how fragile the team can become under pressure. Pulisic’s status finally becomes clear Amid growing speculation over his future, the biggest revelation ahead of the match concerns Pulisic’s role for the decisive encounter. Reports indicate that the United States international is expected to begin the match on the bench, with Allegri leaning toward a forward partnership involving Nkunku alongside either Santiago Gimenez or Niclas Fullkrug. 📰 Gazzetta dello Sport: Probable XI AC Milan v Cagliari! pic.twitter.com/a9dufrsVbn— Milan Posts (@MilanPosts) May 21, 2026 That decision comes after a difficult second half of the season for the American star. After a brilliant opening stretch in which he delivered goals in major matches and regularly carried the attack, Pulisic’s form dipped significantly after January. Still, there are signs that the Serie A giant continues to view Pulisic as a major figure for the future. The club recently unveiled its new 2026-27 home kit with the American placed front and center during the promotional campaign. View this post on Instagram A post shared by PUMA Football (@pumafootball) That development quickly drew attention online because of recent rumors linking him with a return to the Premier League. While kit launches do not guarantee a player will remain, many supporters interpreted the decision as a strong indication that
