The Ballon d’Or website briefly published articles naming Harry Kane, Kylian Mbappé, and Lamine Yamal as winners hours before the ceremony. According to the Daily Mail, the three apparent announcements were quickly removed and organisers launched an investigation into how the drafts went live.
Manchester United are reportedly considering Eddie Howe as a replacement for Michael Carrick, even though Carrick’s future had not been formally settled. The report from iNews says the club has lined up the Newcastle manager as the latest possible answer to a long-running crisis over recruitment, structure, and results.
Barcelona defender Xavi Espart is expected to miss around seven weeks with an injury to the syndesmosis joint in his right ankle. The club said the problem came from a collision with an opposing player during the match against Real Madrid, adding another absence to a defence already under pressure.
