Impersonating Coach Park Hang-seo's Academy, defrauding students of hundreds of millions of dong

Coach Park Hang-seo’s International Football Academy has been impersonated by a group of people. Some students have been scammed out of hundreds of millions of dong.

These fake pages add parents who want to enroll their children in a Telegram group. This is an application that protects users' information, so scammers will not be traced back to this application.

At first, the participation amount is small, the reward is paid quickly, so many people participate in the game. Then, when the amount of money increases, the scammers will take that money.

MU agrees to sell Maguire to West Ham

According to The Athletic, MU has agreed to sell centre-back Harry Maguire to West Ham for a much lower price than expected.

Haaland - Alvarez, the "duo" worth waiting for of Man City

Ahead of the 2023/24 season, Man City has recruited a number of high-profile recruits such as Mateo Kovacic or Josko Gvardiol, but they have yet to strengthen their front line with any new strikers. However, Man City's destructive power promises to be very strong thanks to coach Pep Guardiola's flexible use of players.

Through the personnel arrangement of coach Guardiola, it can be seen that the Man City captain no longer sees Alvarez as a luxury reserve. When coach Guardiola let Alvarez play the whole match, it is very likely that he has started a plan for the 2022 World Cup champion to continuously accompany Haaland in the Man City attack.
