Zlatan Ibrahimović is pompous, egotistical and arrogant. He’s also mostly good-natured, but you don’t want to piss him off. When he’s happy though? No one celebrates like Zlatan.
Ibrahimović brought the Scudetto to AC Milan on Sunday, just as he promised after joining the club. It was the Rossoneri’s first league title since 2011, during Zlatan’s first stint with the club.
Christian Pulisic might be done with Chelsea, at least if we go by his Instagram bio. Pulisic transfer rumors are spiking after the American winger seemed to hint he’s on his way out after removing Chelsea from his bio and profile pic.
Pulisic is the most popular USMNT player in the world thanks to his big-money move to Chelsea in 2019. But the native of Hershey, Pennsylvania, hasn’t received the playing time he or his fans would prefer.
Olivier Giroud will never be considered an all-time great footballer, but the Frenchman wins wherever he goes. He added yet another trophy to his considerable mantle while scoring a brace on Sunday.
Giroud’s two goals helped AC Milan beat Sassuolo 3-0 on Sunday, rendering Inter Milan’s 3-0 win over Sampdoria moot. The Rossoneri edged the Nerazzurri for the Serie A crown 86 points to 84, claiming Milan’s first Scudetto since 2011.
AC MILAN'S FIRST LEAGUE TITLE SINCE 2011.
The refrain around this season's AC Milan team is that it's built different. After capturing its last league title in 2011, the club's rot — falling from second-place in 2012 to as low as 10th in 2015 — had turned the Rossoneri from European titans to a collection of disbelievers.
History will show that it was Rafael Leão's 56th-minute match-winner on the penultimate matchday of Serie A play that kept AC Milan on course for its first Scudetto since 2011, but years down the road, the lasting memory of the Rossoneri's vital 2-0 victory over Atalanta will certainly be Theo Hernández's own personal recreation of Diego Maradona's "Goal of the Century" in the 75th-minute.
Wacky, wacky, what a wacky jersey Juventus has dropped for the 2022-23 season. Eye-sored? Yeah, me too.
But the Vecchia Signora is not the only team with a new look. Here is a roundup of the most relevant releases around the world.
Of course, we have to start with Juve and its new stripes. What were they thinking?
Quando la indossi, puoi sentire dentro di te il battito dell'Allianz Stadium
Venezia FC is not doing great on the field. With just two games left in the Serie A season, the team is dead last in the standings, and relegation is an unavoidable fate. But, off the pitch, oh boy! The club is shining and thriving because of its trendy fashion ventures.
Weston McKennie and Juventus will finish the 2021-22 season without a trophy. Ivan Perišić made sure of it with two well-taken goals — one with each foot — in extra time as Inter Milan claimed the Coppa Italia 4-2 on Wednesday at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome.
In a wild, back-and-forth match that saw Juventus coach Massimiliano Allegri shown a red card, Inter took full advantage of two penalty kicks and dominated extra time to claim its eighth Coppa Italia, trailing only Juventus (14) and Roma (9) for most all time.
The Serie A title rice between Derby della Madonnina rivals Internazionale and AC Milan reached a crescendo this weekend when Inter, trailing 2-0 early, scored four straight against Empoli to win 4-2 and establish a one-point lead over Milan ahead of the Rossoneri's difficult away trip to Hellas Verona on Sunday.
Like Inter, Milan played with fire early and went behind in the 38th minute to an excellently worked Verona goal.
Christian Pulisic needs to get out of Chelsea. Simple as that.
The American star made an appearance as a substitute during Chelsea’s Sunday defeat to Everton. This was his ninth appearance off the bench in the Premier League this season and the fifth in a row. Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel doesn’t seem to trust starting Pulisic, even if he comes off the bench and scores a game-winner.
The lack of playing time has helped spark Pulisic Juventus transfer rumors.
