No rest in North London. Arsenal’s title-winning season is already behind them, the club has finally ended a wait of more than two decades for the Premier League crown, and now they have to keep moving forward. It looks set to be a busy few months for the English champions, as the club’s hierarchy has decided to act quickly and make a surprising—some would say drastic—decision. Out of nowhere, Dr. Zafar Iqbal, Arsenal’s head doctor and chief of sports medicine, was dismissed with immediate effect. The former Crystal Palace and Liverpool physician is leaving the club after two years, and Arsenal have already begun searching for his replacement. The large number of injuries this season was one of Arsenal’s biggest—if not their only—problems, and player recoveries evidently did not progress as expected, with much of the blame falling on Iqbal. English media have not reported the official reason for his dismissal, despite his reputation as one of the most respected and reliable doctors in ..

The World Cup is getting closer, and with each passing day an interesting new statistic emerges. This one is astonishing: every 13th player named in a national team’s squad was born in France. It’s hardly surprising given France’s history as a colonial power, but figures like these serve as a reminder. A total of 99 players at this World Cup were born in France. Most of them, however, will represent other countries. Although they were born on French soil, for various reasons—most commonly because they were not considered good enough to represent Les Bleus—they will be playing under different flags. If it wanted to, France could practically organize its own mini World Cup. There are nearly enough players born in the country to form four complete teams, considering only those who made their nations’ final tournament squads. As for France’s own squad selected by Didier Deschamps, not all of the players were born on French territory. The vast majority were—23 of them, to be exact. Among th..
