Felipe Melo on Buffon’s gambling:

“I hope this doesn’t stir up any controversy, but I’m going to share something few people know: when Juventus played at home, we used to stay at a hotel inside a shopping mall in Turin.

There was a movie theatre there, and we’d go to the rooms, not to watch movies, but to hide with a laptop so Gianluigi Buffon could place bets. My job was to advise him.

I’ll never forget that ‘Gigi’ was good at betting on lesser-known leagues or ones that weren’t very common. The first time we did it, I was shocked when he said he was going to pick the winners of some Serie C matches in Brazil.

I won’t lie, he lost several times, but he actually won way more. He had a feel for it and made quite a bit of money. Other teammates found out and started asking us for advice.”

🗣️ Gabriely Miranda, 25, Endrick’s wife: “When I first saw Endrick, I didn’t know he was a football player. He was sitting alone in a mall, and I thought, ‘What a wonderful man! He has a seductive look and character.’ I felt he was the man of my life, my future.

“I fell in love at first sight, then discovered he was a Palmeiras player.”

It’s being reported that a Wolves training session was delayed for nearly 2 hours today after a player reported finding an unknown white powdery substance on the pitch.

Training was suspended while an investigation was launched. After a complete analysis, experts determined that the white substance unknown to the players was the Goal Line.

Training resumed after it was decided the team was unlikely to encounter the substance again this season.

🇪🇸🗣️ Sara Duque (Trent Alexander-Arnold’s language coach):

“5 months, that’s all it took, for Trent to learn Spanish.

“When he stood on that stage in Madrid and spoke with calm, clarity, and heart, it wasn’t about fluency.

“It was about respect, courage, and a genuine desire to belong.

“As his language coach, that moment meant everything.”

Anthony Gordon has said that “Champions league games are more football and Premier League games are more just throw ins & set pieces.”

And Champions League is actually about “playing football”

Not a good look for the league if its own players are saying it’s anti-football 😬😬
