Portuguese star Cristiano Ronaldo will not be in the starting line-up for Manchester United in the opening match of the English Premier League against Brighton next Sunday, according to the newspaper "Sun".Portuguese star Cristiano Ronaldo will reportedly not start Manchester United's opening game of the 2022-23 Premier League season against Brighton next Sunday and probably will be on the bench amid ongoing uncertainty over his future at the club, according to the newspaper "The Sun".

Although FC Barcelona already has five central defenders in the squad, there appears to be a palpable interest in adding a sixth player. As per Sport, the Blaugrana submitted the first offer for Athletic Club defender Inigo Martinez on Tuesday night. The 31-year-old defender is out of contract next summer and Sporting Director Mateu Alemany has decided to test the waters with an opening offer of €15m. Athletic Club is trying to persuade Martinez to renew his deal but so far Martinez has rejected any advances and told the club he does not want to extend his stay in Bilbao. It remains unlikely that Athletic will accept the offer. The Basque giants are financially solvent and stand more to lose in the player than they do financially. Should the move come off, then it would surely indicate that Barcelona manager Xavi Hernandez does intend on using a back three at times this season. Otherwise, it would seem rather redundant to be signing so many central defenders to play in just two positions. It is worth noting that Sergino Dest and Jordi Alba are the only natural full-backs at Barcelona currently, although Sergi Roberto has played there before.

Former Barcelona defender Dani Alves, through his Instagram profile, invited Leo Messi to surpass him in the most titles won in football history. At the moment, the Brazilian star is the player with the most titles in history. His former teammate is not far from surpassing him, so he 'challenged' him to do so by praising him with a text that he also used to motivate his followers. Messi, who joined Paris Saint-Germain last summer on a two-year contract after his sudden exit from Barcelona on a free transfer, recently helped his team win the French Super Cup, and the 35-year-old scored a goal in the Parisians' 4-0 win over Nantes. It was the player's second tournament in France, and the 41st title of his illustrious career, which included four titles with Argentina, the striker is now just two times short of Alves' record. TNT Sports Argentina posted a photo with the number of players' awards on Twitter, to which Alves humbly replied: "Nothing to worry about, it's another help I give him." "If one day you have to be surpassed, let it be by someone better than you. This post is not for ego, it's just for you to believe in yourself too. Set your destiny and fight every day until the goal arrives!" wrote the full-back, who returned to Barcelona to do his bit in a new era with Xavi Hernandez on the bench. After making his Barcelona debut in 2004, Lionel Messi won a whopping 35 titles, including 10 La Liga titles, 8 Super Copa de Espana, 7 Copa Del Rey, 4 Champions League, 3 European Super Cup, and 3 Club World Cup titles. During his illustrious career, the seven-time Ballon d'Or winner scored 770 goals and 332 assists in 975 matches for Argentina, Barcelona, and Paris Saint-Germain combined, and interestingly enough, Alves has made 43 of those goals all for the Blaugrana.
