Two global stars at the center of stories that are not identical, &lt;b&gt;but strikingly parallel. &lt;/b&gt;A left knee. A World Cup looming. What happened with the Brazilian is no longer a mystery: it ended in surgery, and delaying the operation extended his recovery timeline. Mbappé’s situation, however, is still unfolding. There are a few established facts about his injury and many unanswered questions. He suffered it on December 7 in a play during the match against Celta. An awkward movement. A twinge of pain. &lt;b&gt;The beginning of an ordeal that, at the time, did not appear ominous&lt;/b&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://en.as.com/soccer/the-kaka-case-raises-red-flags-for-mbappe-f202602-n/" target="_blank"&gt;Seguir leyendo&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="https://img.asmedia.epimg.net/resizer/v2/BGSJBMYXEBCRXB6UKQ5MRP2URQ.jpg?auth=f8cdca98b0bdcb91820180a058ce23ea658420872fb0bf7496fa8ea37257c15e" width="6000" height="4000" alt="."&gt;&lt;/img&gt;</content:encoded>

      <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;Their relationship didn’t end in the best way, but &lt;b&gt;Carlo Ancelotti was always a firm supporter of his old team mate Genaro Gattuso - the player whom he entrusted to do all the heavy duty work for that Milan side, who were crowned European champions&lt;/b&gt; in 2003 and 2007. &lt;b&gt;“&lt;/b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;Rino &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;b&gt;was a &lt;/b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;bulldozer,&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;b&gt;”&lt;/b&gt; &lt;i&gt;Carletto&lt;/i&gt; wrote&lt;i&gt; &lt;/i&gt;in one of his three books, &lt;i&gt;Preferisco la Coppa&lt;/i&gt;. Between those pages, he reels off secrets from that &lt;i&gt;Rossonero&lt;/i&gt; team and peppers his experiences with very graphic examples of what the footballers were like. As for Gattuso, whose Valencia side he will face later this evening, Ancelotti has many colourful memories. &lt;b&gt;“To make it clear the kind of character Gattuso had, I will say that he once ate a live snail at the training ground, Milanello”&lt;/b&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://en.as.com/soccer/ancelotti-i-saw-gattuso-eat-a-live-snail-in-milanello-n/" target="_blank"&gt;Seguir leyendo&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>

Four star signings, all of them difficult. Since then it’s not been much like that. Cristiano Ronaldo was signed by Calderón, Kaká joined injured and on the way down, Bale’s signing made an impact more for the money paid than the reality of the player. And the transfer never really worked. &lt;strong&gt;Nothing has been quite the same for Pérez since he started.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://en.as.com/en/2021/02/18/opinion/1613606451_699045.html" target="_blank"&gt;Seguir leyendo&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>

Barça, and I speak of the club, didn't have enough money or desire to sign him, but moans from Messi to bring him back obliged the long drawn out show. &lt;strong&gt;Interest had been feigned, the media had been tipped off about the comings and goings in order to convey the appearance of enthusiasm, but it was all theatre.&lt;/strong&gt; Neymar wanted to leave PSG. PSG could certainly do without the Brazilian. Those statements are true. But it is not so easy to convince someone to pay a huge sum for a fickle player who has not been a footballer for two years.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://en.as.com/en/2019/09/03/opinion/1567500043_002404.html" target="_blank"&gt;Seguir leyendo&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="https://as01.epimg.net/en/imagenes/2019/09/03/opinion/1567500043_002404_1567515978_sumario_normal.jpg" width="649" height="423" alt="The much-spotted Neymar."&gt;&lt;/img&gt;</content:encoded>

      <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;For many sports journalists, &lt;/strong&gt;French publication L’Équipe has long been considered as 'the definitive sporting bible' &lt;/strong&gt;and yesterday the paper featured a cover story that was sure to have sent shivers down the spine of key figures at many leading European football clubs: a list of the players who could end up at Real Madrid this summer as Florentino Pérez looks to rebuild a side that has meandered following&lt;strong&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;Cristiano Ronaldo's departure last summer. It has all the hallmarks of the very same &lt;strong&gt;Florentino who over time signed Figo, Zidane, Ronaldo and Beckham in&lt;a href="https://www.theguardian.com/football/2007/jul/13/realmadrid" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"&gt; constructing his "Galactico" team&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/strong&gt; At the time, L’Équipe published a joke on the matter where two fans were conversing with one saying to the other: “&lt;em&gt;You know Madrid have signed Beckham?”&lt;/em&gt; With the answer being: &lt;em&gt;“Yes, and apparently Schumacher is set to be the bus driver".&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="https://as01.epimg.net/en/imagenes/2019/03/29/opinion/1553852966_587578_1553854879_sumario_normal.jpg" width="649" height="347" alt="."&gt;&lt;/img&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://en.as.com/en/2019/03/29/opinion/1553852966_587578.html" target="_blank"&gt;Seguir leyendo&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="https://as01.epimg.net/en/imagenes/2019/03/29/opinion/1553852966_587578_1553854915_sumario_normal.jpg" width="649" height="425" alt="ZIDANE"&gt;&lt;/img&gt;</content:encoded>
