Why the board of Sevilla has declined to go to the forthcoming match against Barcelona.

Those in positions of authority at La Liga team Sevilla will not be present at this weekend's matchup with Barcelona. Mundo Deportivo claims that this is the case, using the ongoing "Negreira case" as justification. As many will undoubtedly remember, Sevilla's board said in September that they would not be attending any of the events surrounding the team's La Liga away trip to Barcelona. The Nervionenses issued a statement outlining their reasons for declining the invitation to use an executive box at Montjuïc as well as the customary pre-match boardroom meal. As stated in the order circulated in the media, "complete indignation and rejection of the practices carried out by the former FC Barcelona leaders accused in the Negreira case, practices that supposedly constitute a crime for the Investigating Court number 1 of Barcelona." Furthermore, as previously said, the Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán's leadership has not changed their position in the 12 mont

Here's everything we know about Thomas Tuchel's upcoming visit to England.

It's almost certain that Thomas Tuchel will be the next manager of England.

According to reports, the 51-year-old has reached an agreement to take over as manager of the Three Lions and guide them to the 2026 FIFA Men's World Cup in North America, replacing Gareth Southgate.

The Football Association had considered a number of well-known applicants, including Jurgen Klopp, Graham Potter, Eddie Howe, and Pep Guardiola of Manchester City.

However, they focused on Tuchel this week, who hasn't had a job since leaving Bayern Munich at the end of the last campaign. While we wait for formal confirmation of the hiring, here is what we currently know.

When will Tuchel be announced as England's manager?

The FA could make an announcement about his appointment soon, and Tuchel is anticipated to be officially introduced during a press conference at midday on Wednesday.

What are the details of Tuchel's contract?

This has not yet been made public, but indications indicate that Tuchel will sign a contract that extends until the 2026 World Cup. According to Sky Sports News reporter Rob Dorsett, he is expected to earn between £4.5 and £5 million per year, which is significantly less than he earned at Bayern Munich. The Athletic state that he will receive a bonus for winning the World Cup.

At what point did the FA start speaking with Tuchel?


The former Chelsea manager was contacted in the summer by FA chief executive Mark Bullingham and technical director John McDermott, but no official approach was made until this week. Following last week's loss to Greece and interim head coach Lee Carsley's ambiguous statements regarding his future in the position, the organization expedited their search.

When will he be in charge of his first game?

Carsley is anticipated to be in command for their remaining two UEFA Nations League games, even if Tuchel will be brought in before the internationals next month. On November 14, England will play Greece in Athens. Three days later, he might play his first home game at Wembley against the Republic of Ireland.

The next international break isn't until March, when the World Cup qualification campaign begins. The qualifying draw has yet to take place.

Why did the FA decide to hire Tuchel?

Following Sunday's 3-1 victory over Finland in Helsinki, Carsley stated that the FA believed they required a "world-class coach who has won trophies" to lead the England team. Tuchel delivers just that.

Although he will be the third foreign-born head coach in the national team's history, the German is an Anglophile who is very interested in English football and speaks it fluently. More importantly, he has a track record of success, having won trophies with every club he has coached except Mainz.

Throughout his tenure, Tuchel won league titles in France and Germany, led Chelsea to their second Champions League victory in 2021, and won six domestic cups.

🏅Mateta shines as France defeats Egypt, securing a gold medal clash with Spain.

On Monday night, France hosted two Olympic semi-finals. This is what occurred. France advances to the final following a fierce clash with Egypt. In a tense contest, France rallied from a 1-0 deficit to defeat Egypt 2-1 in extra time. After a poor start, France improved just before the interval, with Loïc Badé hitting the post after Joris Chotard's pass. Alexandre Lacazette had a golden opportunity to score in the second half, but he hesitated and ultimately missed the shot. After absorbing all of France's pressure, Egypt proceeded to the other end, where Mahmoud Saber smashed a powerful attempt into the roof of the net. The goal ignited the game, and Hamza Alaa made a wonderful save on a Jean-Philippe Mateta header. France then hit the post twice in quick succession, with Lacazette's shot and Badé's follow-up hitting the woodwork.
