Vinicius forfeits several weeks, Mbappé speaks again and Mo Salah takes on Liverpool: This is the transfer window news for November 25, 2024.
The black streak continues for Real Madrid. Real Madrid's Brazilian striker Vinicius has a biceps femoris injury in his left leg and will be out for around three weeks. The player, who was to be spared in the next matches, will undergo tests to assess the exact duration of his unavailability. The Brazilian is therefore forfeited for the match against Liverpool on Wednesday in the Champions League.
Complicated, after Klopp. Liverpool winger Mohamed Salah is off to an excellent start to the season with 12 goals and 10 assists in 18 games, placing him high. But on a contractual level, it's something else. Its lease expires in June 2025, and its future is now uncertain. The Egyptian said: “Any news for my future? Well, it's almost December and I haven't received any offers to stay here at the club. I’m probably closer to a departure than an extension, so…” the player told the media. “If I want to stay? You know, I have been at the club for many years… I have never known such a club. But in the end, it's not in my hands. As I said before, it's almost December and I haven't had a single proposal for my future. We'll see. What if I'm disappointed that I didn't receive an offer? Of course, yes,” Salah said.
Yamal will not go to Brest
No Lamine Yamal in Brest! The player is receiving treatment after an injury to his right ankle which occurred on November 6 in Belgrade. He has already missed Barca's last two matches against Real Sociedad and in Vigo, and also had to forgo the November gathering with the Spain team. Lamine Yamal suffers from a first degree injury to the syndesmosis of the right ankle, does not wish to resort to an infiltration to speed up his healing due to the risk of relapse. FC Barcelona therefore prefers to take their time to avoid any aggravation, hoping to see him return to the field on Saturday against Las Palmas, at least on the bench.
Mbappé comes out of silence
Kylian Mbappé finally speaks. Silent for weeks, he spoke to Real Madrid TV. “It did me a lot of good to train here, to be with the young people in the reserve who I didn't know and who have a lot of quality. It was beneficial for me to run, to train, and I saw it today (Sunday) because I felt good physically.
Positioned on the left this weekend with Real Madrid, Mbappé played better. “I think I had a good match. I'm starting to hang out with my teammates. I played in a different position from the last matches. But I can play all positions of the attack. The next one, I might change position again but I'm ready to help the team and give my best. Anyway, playing on the right, on the left, in the center, that's the story of my career and I don't care. What I want is to play well, help the team and score a lot of goals.” In a post-match press conference, Carlo Ancelotti defended the captain of the French team, particularly for his performance in a new position: “We changed the position of the attackers, with Mbappé on the outside and he well done, just like Vinicius inside. The team controlled very well the good feelings we had in the match against Osasuna and we confirmed it today.
And to conclude, Mbappé spoke about his relationship with Vinicius. “I have a very good relationship with Vini. He's a great player. Like all Real Madrid players. As I have always said, the best players are here and we are ready to play together, win a lot of matches and titles,” commented the former Parisian.
