Pep hails Ait-Nouri and Echeverri in wake of six-hit Al Ain triumph

Pep Guardiola praised the impact of new signing Rayan Ait-Nouri and Argentine youngster Claudio Echeverri after City sealed our ticket into the last 16 of the FIFA Club World Cup with a 6-0 win over Al Ain in Atlanta. Ilkay Gundogan led the way in our second Group G clash with a brace – the first via a sublime chip – with Echeverri then doubling our advantage with a wonderful free-kick on what was the young Argentine's first start for City. Advertisement With Erling Haaland also on target from the penalty spot, and substitutes Rayan Cherki and Oscar Bobb also netting, it made for a fine night's work. Summer signing Ait-Nouri caught the eye too with his ramping runs forward from left back, the Algerian providing a tantalising glimpse of what he will bring to the Club. And as he reflected on a solid night's work, the City boss was keen to praise Ait-Nouri and Echeverri's individual contributions to the cause. On Ait-Nouri in his first outing for City, he said: 'Wow, he played very good because we had to defend a back four and then a back five, he had to arrive in the end. Advertisement 'At the end he played really good. It's his first game but he's played in the Premier League for many years. 'He can help us play in that important role, then he went holding midfield in the pockets, he moves really well in small spaces. JUMPING FOR JOY: Claudio Echeverri after his stunning free-kick. 'He's intelligent and clear to defend and take the ball and especially in the final third he's so clever as well. 'I was really pleased for the game he played.' The boss was equally pleased with the contribution of Echeverri, the only downside being an ankle knock that forced him off at half-time. 'Since he's arrived the previous season, three or four months with us at the end of the training session he'd practice the free-kicks with the keeper and the wall alone. The others didn't,' Pep added. Advertisement 'He practiced and practiced, and the work paid off, he had the courage and quality. When you practice, it's like golf or basketball, the more you practice the more chances you have. It was a fantastic goal and he's an incredible player in the small spaces. 'Unfortunately, he couldn't continue after half-time for a problem with the ankle but it was really good that his first minutes in this competition, he made a fantastic goal. The free-kick was really, really good.' ACTION MAN: The City squad line up ahead of kick-off. The result means City are just behind Juventus in the table having scored one goal less than the Old Lady with both sides on six points from two games. Advertisement The two sides meet in Orlando on Thursday in a clash that will determine who claims top spot. 'What's important is we're in the next phase,' Pep added. 'We want to go through and in the end have to face top teams sooner or later, you see Brazilian teams and top-class European team, it's not a big concern. 'We have four days to play Juventus then after the next opponent. Happy to be one week more here in the United States.'

PSG Get Good News as Bayern Munich Make €12M-per-Year Offer to Barcelona Target

PSG are just one win away from completing a treble, largely thanks to the depth Luis Enrique has built across the squad. The Spanish manager has relied heavily on rotation this season, a strategy that's helped secure back-to-back Ligue 1 titles and a Coupe de France triumph. But while the approach has paid off, it hasn't satisfied everyone. Some players believe they're ready for a bigger role—and Bradley Barcola might be one of them. The young forward is now attracting interest from Bayern Munich, raising questions about his future in Paris. Advertisement According to Sky Sport Germany's Florian Plettenberg, Bayern board member for sport Max Eberl recently left the club's training camp in Florida to focus on squad planning. He's holding talks with agents and other decision-makers as the club shapes its summer strategy. Bayern remain interested in adding a winger, with their top priority still believed to be Athletic Club's Nico Williams—though that deal depends on how things play out with Barcelona. Barcola is also high on Bayern's radar, while AC Milan's Rafael Leão has come up in internal discussions as well. Are Bayern Munich ditching interest in PSG standout? OSCAR DEL POZO/AFP via Getty Images Advertisement Plettenberg's latest report reveals that Bayern Munich haven't given up on Nico Williams and have put a €12 million per season offer on the table. Bayern are hoping Barcelona run into financial or registration issues that could prevent them from closing the deal. In his recent column, Bayern Munich insider Christian Falk revealed that Bayern Munich still see Barcola as a Plan B option if they are unable to secure Athletic Club's Nico Williams, who is linked to Barcelona. 'FC Bayern still can't agree on which player is best for the club. Nico Williams is still the ideal number one signing,' Falk wrote. 'They think Leão doesn't contribute as effectively with his defensive work. Barcola is hard to get; PSG don't want to sell him. Advertisement 'Interestingly, though, Bradley Barcola has changed agents. He is no longer being advised by star agent Jorge Mendes, Cristiano Ronaldo's old representative. 'He has switched to Moussa Sissoko and Marco Lichtsteiner. They are also Jamie Gittens' agents. The agency is also very well connected with FC Bayern. If there is a chance of a transfer, FC Bayern will be attentive to the opportunity.' Despite this rumor, Foot Mercato's Josué Cassé recently reported that Barcola isn't leaving PSG, as he remains a key part of the club's project and has no intention of moving on.

🌎 The Club World Cup guide to...Porto

Our guide to all 32 clubs participating at the FIFA Club World Cup continues. You can check out the full list so far here. Today we're looking How did they qualify for the Club World Cup? 📸 Alex Livesey - 2004 Getty Images Advertisement Porto are a club with great European pedigree, having won the European Cup in 1987 and the Champions League in 2004. They qualified for the Club World Cup via the UEFA ranking pathway thanks to some strong Champions League showings between 2021 and 2024. History at the Club World Cup Porto have never played at the Club World Cup but did win the Intercontinental Cup in 1987 (beating Uruguayan side Peñarol 2-1 after extra-time in a one-off match) and in 2004 (beating Colombian outfit Once Caldas in a penalty shoot-out). How did they perform in the 2024/25 season? It's been a tough campaign for Porto with the Portuguese giants finishing third in their domestic campaign, failing to win any of the cups and getting knocked out of the Europa League and the first post-group stage hurdle. Who is the coach? 📸 Hector Vivas - 2025 Getty Images Advertisement Argentine coach Martín Anselmi has only been in charge of Porto since January 2025, having previously coached in Chile, Ecuador and Mexico respectively. He has a reputation as a progressive, detail-oriented manager focused on high-intensity, possession-based football. Who is their star player? 📸 Octavio Passos - 2024 Getty Images Spain international forward Samu Aghehowa will be one to watch at the Club World Cup. Since joining Porto from Atlético de Madrid in the summer of 2024, the 20-year-old has been in impressive form, scoring 25 goals in 42 games, earning himself a call-up to Spain's senior squad last November, having won a gold medal for La Roja at the 2024 summer Olympic Games. Expected performance at the Club World Cup The Dragões will fancy their chances of emerging from Group A, where they will face Al Ahly, Inter Miami and Palmeiras. Advertisement But a disappointing season on the domestic front means it's difficult to imagine them doing much in the knockout stages, if indeed they get that far. A quarter-final berth would represent a solid achievement. 📸 FILIPE AMORIM - AFP or licensors
