Zidane snubbed, hero Bale is about to go to MU, Liverpool buys goalkeeper to replace Karius?

Ramos elbowed Karius in the head before Real took the lead?

The referee ignored Sergio Ramos' sneak attack on Liverpool's goalkeeper in the Champions League final on the evening of May 26.

Ramos elbowed Karius in the head as he prepared to receive the ball.

The incident happened in the 49th minute, when the score was 0-0. Video footage showed that the Real Madrid captain used his right elbow to hit the Liverpool goalkeeper in the head. Karius complained to referee Milorad Mazic, but the incident was quickly dropped.

The Liverpool goalkeeper had a nightmare just a minute later. In a seemingly simple situation, he suddenly threw the ball right into Karim Benzema's swing, causing the ball to fly back into the goal, helping Real take a 1-0 lead. In the 83rd minute, Karius continued to make another serious mistake. Facing Gareth Bale's long-range shot, the German goalkeeper hesitated between pushing or catching the ball, allowing the ball to bounce off his hand and fly into the goal.

Before the collision with Karius, Ramos also caused controversy when he committed a foul that injured Mohamed Salah and forced him to leave the field in the 31st minute. The Real captain did not receive a card in these two situations.

Bale will "defect" to MU in 2 weeks?

Despite being Real Madrid's hero with a double from the bench, Bale did not receive any congratulations or praise from coach Zidane for 3 hours after being crowned.

The Sun revealed that Zinedine Zidane did not speak to Bale for 3 hours after Real defeated Liverpool in Kiev.

In front of the media, Zizou confirmed that Ronaldo will stay at the Bernabeu next season. As for the Welsh star, Zidane just mumbled to let the matter pass.

It is expected that in 2 weeks, Bale's representative - Jonathan Barnett will meet with Real president - Florentino Perez and directly express the 28-year-old midfielder's desire to leave.

Bale does not hide his ambition to return to the UK to play for MU, where Mourinho always welcomes him with open arms.

The Red Devils are willing to pay the Royal team 80 million pounds in transfer fees and offer Bale an attractive salary of more than 600,000 pounds/week.

Barca hesitates, Umtiti sets date to join MU

Recently, MU has repeatedly expressed its desire to have Umtiti's service. The 24-year-old star's current contract with Barcelona expires in June 2021. Along with that is a release clause worth 52 million pounds.

It is known that coach Jose Mourinho is willing to spend this amount of money to buy Umtiti. That means, Barca is facing the risk of losing the French central defender in an unavoidable way similar to the case of Neymar nearly a year ago.

According to the Spanish press, Barcelona's board of directors is negotiating a contract extension with Umtiti. However, the French midfielder has denied this information.

Umtiti said: “I have not received any notification about my contract extension. In recent days, I have been looking at my phone but have not received any calls.

I am not bothered by what is happening to me because it has been too familiar for the past few months. However, I want to resolve my future before joining the French national team at the 2018 World Cup."

Umtiti's current salary at the Nou Camp is only £75,000/week. The French player's move shows that if Barca do not soon extend his contract and increase his salary, he will accept the transfer to MU in the next few weeks.

Liverpool frantically buys goalkeeper after Karius "disaster"

The German goalkeeper made two elementary mistakes in the Champions League final, causing Liverpool to lose 1-3 to Real Madrid.

Karius made two serious mistakes in the final.

That forced Jurgen Klopp to consider recruiting a new goalkeeper, with the two leading candidates to replace Karius being Alisson (Roma) and Jan Oblak (Atletico Madrid).

They have sent scouts to closely monitor Alisson's form, but the Brazilian goalkeeper failed to impress Klopp in Liverpool's Champions League semi-final against Roma.

Furthermore, the Italian side will demand over £50m, after realising they sold Mohamed Salah to rivals for a bargain last season for just £38m.

In terms of form and consistency, Jan Oblak would be a good choice for Alisson. The Slovenian goalkeeper continues to play excellently for Atletico this season.

The main obstacle in the deal is Oblak's £80m contract release clause.

Neymar tells the truth about his injury, Brazil team is in a panic

Neymar has returned to training but admitted that he still feels uncomfortable while performing some movements and is still not at 100% fitness, as the 2018 World Cup prepares to kick off in Russia.

Neymar is expected to return with Brazil in the friendly match against Croatia at Anfield on June 3. However, he has just revealed his health situation, causing the samba dance to continue its days of uncertainty. Will there be the service of a Neymar in the best form?

"I'm not 100% fit yet. I still feel some discomfort in some movements. I need a little more time to fully recover."Neymar's confession came at a time (Sunday, May 27), 3 weeks before Brazil's opening match against Switzerland. Neymar needs to have the best feeling for the ball after being out of action for more than 3 months.

Mohamed Salah speaks out about his ability to recover from injury

Mohamed Salah has given Egyptian fans good news by confirming he could travel to Russia to attend the 2018 World Cup.

Coach Jurgen Klopp himself admitted that Mohamed Salah's injury was relatively serious. However, yesterday, the Egyptian striker quickly reassured the public.
