Reserve for nearly 2 years, Cong Phuong still offers nearly 1 million USD; Ronaldo unexpectedly eliminated from AFC Champions League

Nguyen Cong Phuongis negotiating with a club to return to Vietnam to play and he offered a contract fee of up to 24 billion VND for 3 seasons. In fact, Vietnamese football has many contracts with very high prices such as Quang Hai, Hoang Duc, Tuan Hai or Nguyen Filip. This amount is not too unreasonable if Cong Phuong often plays abroad.

However, the player from Nghe An has rarely played in the two seasons in Japan. Therefore, the First Division team was somewhat surprised and made an offer lower than what Cong Phuong wanted. The final decision will belong to the player born in 1995 and his family.

Ronaldo unexpectedly eliminated from AFC Champions League, Iraqi fans go crazy

Before the match between Al Nassr and Al Shorta in the Asian Champions League, Iraqi fans received disappointing news when Cristiano Ronaldo was unexpectedly absent. The reason given by Al Nassr was that CR7 "infected with a virus" but Iraqi fans are skeptical about this reason.

According to Al Nassr's official statement, Ronaldo had a viral fever yesterday. He had to stay for treatment while the remaining members of Al Nassr were still present to prepare for the confrontation on the night of September 16..

It is worth mentioning that Al Medina Stadium in Baghdad was sold out because Iraqi fans were looking forward to seeing superstar Ronaldo in Al Nassr colors. There were even groups of fans who took buses to Baghdad and stayed in temporary shelters and cheap hotels to get into Al Medina Stadium to see their idol in person. But they were disappointed.

Neymar does unexpected things behind Mbappe's back

Neymar spoke unkind words about Kylian Mbappe to the Brazilian players at Real Madrid, after the French striker arrived at the Bernabeu.

Neymar and Mbappe were former teammates at PSG from 2017 to 2023. At this time, both are no longer playing for the Paris team, as Neymar moved to Al Hilal to "retire", and Mbappe has also joined Real Madrid.

According to writer Cyril Hanouna, Neymar contacted Real's Brazilian players to "badmouth" Mbappe. Specifically, the striker warned his teammates in the Brazilian national team about Mbappe's instability.

Sharing on Europe 1, Hanouna said: "There is always a war between Neymar and Mbappe. Neymar sent an article about his former teammate to his fellow countrymen. He thinks playing next to Mbappe is a disaster, hell."

The players that Neymar sent messages to are currently the pillars of Real such as Eder Militao, Vinicius, Rodrygo or new recruit Endrick. This is clearly not good news for Mbappe personally, as Neymar's words always have a lot of weight with Brazilian stars in general and at Real Madrid in particular.
