FC Bayern Munich did not manage to accomplish its primary objective this season. No matter how much the club hierarchy insists that winning the domestic double was the main priority, it was obvious that the team from Munich had been built to conquer the UEFA Champions League. Still, despite falling short of that goal, the season will go down as one of the most successful in the club’s history — at least when it comes to attacking efficiency. It had already been known that the Bavarians shattered all previous records for goals scored in a single Bundesliga campaign, but a 5–1 demolition of 1. FC Koln also made them the most prolific team of the 21st century across Europe’s “big five” leagues.

It’s just not meant to be for Ronaldo in Saudi Arabia. A poor buildup for Al Nassr FC and Cristiano Ronaldo ahead of the match of the season in five days, when the Portuguese star will finally have a chance to win his first major trophy since arriving in Saudi Arabia. The final round of the Saudi Pro League season is scheduled for Thursday. The Riyadh club sits top of the table with a two-point advantage over Al Hilal SFC and has what appears to be a perfect opportunity at home against Damac FC. However, a defeat to Gamba Osaka in the final of the AFC Champions League Two (roughly the Asian equivalent of the UEFA Europa League) certainly cannot have a positive effect on a team that has been waiting six years for a league title.Cristiano Ronaldo didn’t join his Al-Nassr teammates in picking up a runners-up medal after losing the AFC ACL Two Final ❌🥈 pic.twitter.com/W2ulz6lNJA— Football on TNT Sports (@footballontnt) May 17, 2026 🚨 𝗡𝗘𝗪: Cristiano Ronaldo has now ‘lost’ 14 out of 14 OFFIC..

The decision was made – Manchester United executives decided to propose to Sir Jim Ratcliffe to appoint Michael Carrick as the full-time manager. The minority United owner decided to listen to the advice of his sporting director and his CEO and the club’s representatives started negotiations with the interim manager.
