Former MU midfielder Eric Bailly has just been removed from the first team by Besiktas Club along with 4 other players, after poor technical performances.
The Turkish team just posted a notice on its homepage: "Besiktas would like to inform everyone that five of our first team players will be removed from the squad. Vincent Aboubakar, Valentin Rosier, Eric Bailly, Rachid Ghezzal and Jean Onana are expelled from the team due to poor performance and unsuitability for Besiktas at this time."
The announcement comes just over three months after Eric Bailly left Manchester United and joined Besiktas as a free agent.

Damaging the image of V.League, coaches Gong Oh-kyun and Van Kien are proposed to be heavily fined
On the afternoon of December 11, Vietnam Professional Football Joint Stock Company (VPF) has just sent a document requesting the VFF Disciplinary Board to impose additional penalties on coach Gong Oh-kyun (Hanoi Police Club) and defender Tran Van Kien (Nam Dinh Club) for their behavior of tarnishing the general image of V.League 2023/2024.
In the 33rd minute of the match between Nam Dinh FC and Hanoi Police FC, the ball went out of bounds and the home team was awarded a throw-in. Nguyen Van Kien went to get the ball to carry out his duty. However, coach Gong Oh-kyun blocked the ball in front of the former Hanoi FC player.
Van Kien nudged and pushed Gong Oh-kyun away. The Korean coach took off his shirt and reacted violently to this player. The incident stopped when the fourth referee intervened. Main referee Nguyen Dinh Thai gave a yellow card to warn coach Gong Oh-kyun and Van Kien.
The VPF report sent to the VFF Disciplinary Board clearly stated: "Player Tran Van Kien collided with coach Gong Oh-kyun while he was standing outside the technical area reacting to the referee's decision; the ball rolled to coach Gong Oh-kyun's feet, he held the ball to slow down the ball into play. Coach Gong Oh-kyun thought player Tran Van Kien was attacking so he reacted in self-defense by waving his arms and taking off his shirt. Afterwards, the members and the referee promptly intervened."
In fact, referee Nguyen Dinh Thai was a bit lenient when he gave coach Gong Oh-kyun a yellow card. According to FIFA's updated football rules, if a team member prevents an opponent from getting the ball into play quickly, the referee has the right to give that person a red card.
"Red Devils" receive good news before the "big battle" with Bayern Munich

Indonesian newspaper interested in the internal affairs of Vietnam National Team, worried Filip Nguyen will be selected
The Vietnamese team will meet Indonesia in 3 matches in 2024. That is the group stage of the 2023 Asian Cup in Qatar (January 19) and 2 crucial home and away matches in the second qualifying round of the 2026 World Cup in Asia (March 21 and March 26). In the last 5 confrontations at the national team level, Vietnam did not lose to Indonesia (won 3, drew 2). But those were all matches when Mr. Park Hang-seo was still leading the Vietnamese team. Currently, the "Golden Star Warriors" have a new coach, Mr. Philippe Troussier.
Because of the above factors, the Indonesian media is even more interested in the internal situation of the Vietnam National Team. Most recently, Indonesian newspapers showed enthusiasm when goalkeeper Filip Nguyen was naturalized and had a bright chance to go up.Vietnam team.
CNN Indonesia wrote: “Filip Nguyen was naturalized as a Vietnamese citizen right before the 2023 Asian Cup. Coach Philippe Troussier is very interested in this goalkeeper. Filip Nguyen was called up to the Czech Republic team to play against Scotland in the UEFA Nations League. However, because Filip Nguyen had not played a single minute for the Czech Republic at that time, he was still eligible to play for the Vietnamese team in international tournaments. Filip Nguyen's fluency in Vietnamese will help him set offside traps better than before.”
CNN Indonesia also predicts that with his proven performance in the Czech Republic National Championship and Europa League in the past, this goalkeeper can take the starting position of Dang Van Lam, who has held the number 1 position in the Vietnamese national team's goal since 2015./.
