Champions League commencement postponed for Alexander Golovin due to hip ailment - AFP report
In the world of European football, there's been a flurry of exciting developments. Let's delve into some of the key stories making headlines.
Firstly, Portuguese powerhouse Benfica is contemplating the appointment of Jose Mourinho as their new coach, following the departure of Nuno Espirito Santo (Lage). The former Chelsea and Manchester United manager could potentially bring a fresh dynamic to the club, should the deal go through.
Meanwhile, Russian midfielder Alexander Golovin of Monaco has suffered a serious injury to his right thigh. The extent of the injury is severe enough to keep him out of action for up to a month. This comes at a particularly challenging time for Monaco, as they prepare for the crucial Champions League group stage matches. Golovin, who has a history of injuries, missed the win over Troyes (2:1) due to his injury, and is certain to miss the initial Champions League matches against Club Brugge and Manchester City. The exact timeline for his recovery will be determined after his rehabilitation is complete.
Monaco faces some of Europe's strongest clubs in the Champions League group stage, and the absence of Golovin will undoubtedly put them under pressure. However, they may find solace in the potential debut of youngster Isaak for Liverpool in the Champions League match against Atletico Madrid.
Elsewhere, FIFA has announced that it will increase payments to clubs for releasing players for national team matches. This move is aimed at alleviating the financial burden on clubs when their players are called up for international duty.
The search results do not provide the exact date or specific time of Jorge Jesus's resignation as coach of Benfica. However, the vacancy left by his departure has sparked a wave of speculation, with Jose Mourinho being one of the most talked-about candidates.
As the football season unfolds, these developments promise to add an extra layer of excitement to the already thrilling world of European football. Stay tuned for more updates!
