SWEDEN MELTDOWN: COACH FIRED AFTER ALEXANDER ISAK’S ANGRY TIRADE
Jon Dahl Tomasson has been sacked as Sweden manager after a poor World Cup qualifying run. The decision follows a 1-0 loss to Kosovo, with the team struggling to score and their qualification hopes in shambles.
After leading his team to a poor sequence of results that left their hopes of qualifying for the World Cup in shambles, Sweden's manager, Jon Dahl Tomasson, was fired.
Sweden lost 1-0 despite starting Viktor Gyokeres of Arsenal and Alexander Isak of Liverpool in Monday's match against Kosovo. With just one point thus far after losing to Switzerland over the weekend, it was the third time in four World Cup qualifying matches that Tomasson's team had failed to score.
Sweden's only realistic goal currently is to finish in the Nations League, as they are unable to directly qualify for next year's tournament and have virtually no chance of making it to the play-offs by coming second in their group.
Thus, barely hours after the loss to Kosovo, the Swedish Football Association confirmed on Tuesday that Tomasson had been stripped of his duties.
Simon Astrom, the chairman of the Swedish Football Association, stated in a statement that the organisation's decision was based on the men's national team's failure to provide the desired outcomes.
"We have to make sure we have the ideal circumstances to be able to make it to a World Cup final, and there is still a potential for a playoff in March. We think that a new national captain is needed to provide fresh leadership in this area.
Despite playing the entire ninety minutes on Monday, Liverpool star Isak was incensed following his team's most recent loss and was unable to get his nation's qualification campaign off to a strong start.
Isak stated, "It is a bit of a crisis scenario, and that is apparent." "I am uncertain about our next course of action. However, it is all too awful.
For Sweden to have any chance of making it to the playoffs through its qualifying group, it must now defeat Switzerland and Slovenia in its final two qualifiers next month and hope Kosovo loses its remaining games.
When he talked following their most recent loss, Isak declined to speculate about his manager's future, despite his obvious annoyance at his team's current situation.
His words, "We players are so f------ unsatisfied." Additionally, we accept a great deal of responsibility ourselves, as I have stated previously.
"We gaze in the mirror at ourselves. And nobody has been accepted. Not as a team, not as players. Naturally, the coach and everything else are included in it, but we stay out of the debate on the requests for Tomasson's termination.
CRISTIANO RONALDO PROTESTS AL-HILAL'S BENZEMA DEAL BY SKIPPING AL-NASSR LEAGUE MATCH
Cristiano Ronaldo is fuming. Discover why the Al-Nassr star skipped his last match and is now threatening to leave Saudi Arabia.
Cristiano Ronaldo has been the main attraction in the Saudi Pro League ever since he landed in the Middle East three years ago. Now, for the first time, it looks like he’s actually thinking about leaving. He’s frustrated. He feels the playing field isn’t level, and it’s starting to get to him.
Here’s the deal: Four clubs in the league—Al-Ittihad, Al-Nassr, Al-Hilal, and Al-Ahli—get their backing straight from the state. But Ronaldo sat out Al-Nassr’s match against Al-Riyadh on Monday night. Why? He was protesting. He found out Al-Hilal was about to sign Karim Benzema from Al-Ittihad, and that was the last straw. From Ronaldo’s perspective, Al-Hilal keeps getting more freedom to splash cash than everyone else. They’re the current champions, and Ronaldo still hasn’t managed to win his first Saudi title.
Saudi officials tried to calm him down. According to Diario AS, they reached out and argued that most of Al-Hilal’s extra spending comes from Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal, not the Public Investment Fund (PIF). Al-Hilal just brought in Kader Meite for €30 million, Saimon Bouabre for €23 million, and now Benzema. Al-Nassr, on the other hand, only managed two free transfers this winter. Sure, they spent a lot more in the summer, but that didn’t seem to matter to Ronaldo.
Reports from Portugal, cited by AS, say Ronaldo’s not ruling anything out—not even leaving Saudi Arabia this summer. That’s despite just signing an extension with Al-Nassr until 2027.
And honestly, he has a point. Since he arrived, Al-Hilal have spent €647 million, while Al-Nassr have shelled out €410 million and Al-Ittihad €365 million. These numbers probably don’t include salaries—and let’s face it, nobody’s making more than Ronaldo. He’s supposed to return on Friday when Al-Nassr face Al-Ittihad, but right now, no one really knows if he’ll play or if he’s planning his next move.
N’GOLO KANTE SKIPS TRAINING AS AL-ITTIHAD BLOCK HIS MOVE TO FENERBAHCE OFFICIALLY
N’Golo Kante has gone on strike at Al-Ittihad after a paperwork error blocked his move to Fenerbahce. Can he still sign by Friday?
N’Golo Kanté didn’t show up for Al-Ittihad training on Tuesday, and it’s not hard to see why. He was all set to head to Fenerbahçe, but the deal fell apart at the last minute—apparently because Al-Ittihad messed up some paperwork. Kante was supposed to fly to Istanbul and sign, but thanks to this administrative slip, he’s stuck in limbo. There’s still a shot at reviving the transfer sinceKanté Turkey’s transfer window stays open until Friday, February 6.
Kante was one of the first big European names to jump to the Saudi Pro League, joining Al-Ittihad in 2023 after seven years with Chelsea. He’s been a key player in Jeddah, helping Al-Ittihad win the 2024-25 league title and the King’s Cup.
Then, in the middle of the January window, word got out that Fenerbahce wanted him. The Turkish club were eager to add a World Cup winner to their squad. The plan was to swap Kante for Youssef En-Nesyri, who’d head to Saudi Arabia. Everything seemed set until deadline day, when news broke that an error by Al-Ittihad in the Transfer Matching System stopped the transfer cold.
Fenerbahce didn’t hold back. They blamed Al-Ittihad directly, saying they’d done everything right: agreements with the players, medicals, paperwork, all wrapped up on time. But Al-Ittihad entered something wrong in the system, and that was that. Fenerbahçe even asked for an extension and reached out to FIFA, but nothing moved. In the end, the deal died, and Fenerbahçe put out a statement saying they understood the frustration and would keep working to strengthen the squad.
Meanwhile, Kante’s making his feelings clear. According to Ben Jacobs, he skipped training on Tuesday, still hoping the move to Fenerbahce can happen. Santi Aouna says talks between the clubs aren’t dead yet. L’Equipe is reporting that Kanté doesn’t want to play for Al-Ittihad while he waits for FIFA’s decision. With the Turkish window open until Friday, there’s still a glimmer of hope for Kante, though En-Nesyri’s move is off the table for now.
