The thumb is “obviously not 100% at the moment but I am building it up,” he says at team’s departure press interaction

Temba Bavuma is on track to leading South Africa at the T20 World Cup later this month. Bavuma, who broke his thumb in Sri Lanka last month, is four weeks post-surgery and is back in the nets. He is expected to be fully fit for the team’s first warm-up match, against Afghanistan on October 18.”I started batting a bit yesterday just to feel it out,” Bavuma said during the team’s departure press conference. “According to the medical team, everything is still on schedule. I am quite happy with where it’s at. It’s obviously not 100% at the moment but I am building it up and everyone is happy with the progress thus far.”Related

If all goes as planned, Bavuma will be ready, not only to lead South Africa in a major tournament for the first time, but to make his first appearance in a global event. The sense of occasion has not escaped him. “Looking at the position I am in, I acknowledge the responsibility when leaving South African shores and knowing what I am responsible for,” he said. “And the thinking that when you come back from South Africa, things could be different; your life could be different.”From a team point of view, it’s excitement and the anxiety of experiencing something you haven’t come across. But I think it’s more excitement at the moment.”South Africa go into the tournament ranked fifth on the ICC charts and on the back of three successive T20I series wins, over West Indies, Ireland and Sri Lanka. Bavuma missed the last of those entirely after he was injured in the ODIs but kept a close eye on proceedings from home. “It was frustrating being on the side, but as much as I was on the side, I was quite engaged with the team,” he said. “I had conversations with the coach and Keshav (Maharaj, the stand-in captain), just to get to their thinking, their understanding and sharing my own ideas. I was more involved than I normally would be if I was on the side.”He was particularly pleased with South Africa’s professionalism in sweeping a struggling Sri Lankan side 3-0. “It wasn’t so much the victories but just the way they went about their business. They were super clinical with the bat and with the ball, they were very, very ruthless.’Despite those results, South Africa’s inconsistent form across all formats, and the administrative upheaval over the last two years, means that not many expect them to get out of the group stage at the T20 World Cup – they are grouped with Australia, England, West Indies and two qualifiers – and Bavuma knows it. On the one hand, the absence of any great expectations may take the pressure off, but on the other, Bavuma’s role as the first black African captain and the weight that comes with adds another layer to the burden he carries.”I don’t harp on a lot about being a black African but it is quite significant, from all angles. You talk about extra pressure, thinking about it now, it adds onto the pressure that is already there,” he said. “But it’s also a privilege that I believe I’ve been blessed to have. If the opportunity is there, and the team plays accordingly, we’d like to do something special for the country.”Kagiso Rabada and Anrich Nortje are among the players who will join the team at the end of their IPL campaigns•BCCI
This is the kind of language used by another black African captain, the Springboks’ Siya Kolisi, who led the team to victory at the 2019 World Cup, to a series win over the British and Irish Lions this winter, and back to the top of the world rugby rankings with a 31-29 triumph over New Zealand’s All Blacks yesterday. Kolisi and Bavuma share aspects of identity and a managing agency, Roc Nation, and Bavuma hopes to draw inspiration from Kolisi as South Africa head to the T20 World Cup.”Theres a lot of inspiration we can take from the Springboks. That fight that they have and the resilience they’ve showed over the years, it’s something that we admire. As the Proteas, we bank on our resilience,” Bavuma said. “I will touch base with him (Kolisi) over the next couple of days when things are settled, especially on his side.”It’s sometimes a bit bitter when you don’t know what to expect. You allow yourself to rely on hope or faith – whatever you want to call it. I don’t want to play it too much in my head. I believe I have done all I can to hold myself in the coming moments. I really don’t think I should be trying new things or trying to bring out a different Temba or a different version of myself. As I’ve always done, especially of late, it’s just to take things day by day and trust things will look after themselves, if I do the right things.”South Africa will arrive in the UAE at midnight and begin a six-day quarantine before being allowed to train. The seven members of the squad who are at the IPL will join up with them when they are freed up from that tournament, being played in the UAE too. South Africa play the opening match of the Super 12 phase of T20 World Cup, against Australia, on October 23.
Palmeiras e Santos decidem, nesta terça-feira, às 10h, no Allianz Parque, quem será o campeão da Copinha de 2022. Mas o torneio não serve apenas para revelar jogadores. A decisão mostra que a base também ganha espaço em termos de arbitragem, visto que o escolhido para apitar o clássico, Gustavo Holanda Souza, tem apenas 23 anos e uma edição da competição no currículo.

Nascido em 28 de agosto de 1998, Gustavo é um dos árbitros da nova geração que têm aparecido nos torneios organizados pela Federação Paulista de Futebol. A idade baixa o torna apenas um pouco mais velho do que os atletas que disputarão a final desta terça. Vale lembrar que nesta edição da Copinha, a idade limite é 21 anos, ou seja, dois a menos do que tem o jovem árbitro.
Apesar de jovem, Gustavo carrega a vocação em seu sangue, uma vez que é sobrinho da árbitra Regildenia Holanda Moura, atualmente aposentada, que ostentou o escudo da Fifa entre 2012 e 2018, ou seja, a referência da profissão vem de casa. Em 2019, no jogo em que se retirou do futebol, ela teve como quarto árbitro justamente o sobrinho Gustavo Holanda. A partida, válida pelo Paulistão sub-20, também ateve dois sobrinhos como auxiliares.
É a segunda edição de Copinha que Gustavo apita. A primeira foi a de 2020, quando apitou cinco partidas e fez outra como quarto árbitro. Vale lembrar que em 2021 não houve a competição por conta da pandemia de Covid-19. Neste ano, ele já foi responsável por um confronto do Palmeiras, contra o internacional, nas oitavas de final, em Diadema, quando o Verdão venceu por 2 a 1 e teve um pênalti marcado a seu favor, mas desperdiçou a cobrança.
Em meio a isso, o árbitro foi responsável pela arbitragem de outros torneios de base, de partidas pelas divisões de acesso do Paulistão e de duelos pelo estadual feminino. Aliás, em um desses jogos pelo feminino, ele chegou a ser quarto árbitro de um Palmeiras x Santos, no ano passado, quando o Peixe levou a melhor ao vencer por 1 a 0. Ele, inclusive, já está escalado para ser o quarto árbitro de Ituano e Novorizontino, quarta-feira, pelo Paulistão-2022.

وفي عام 2009، انتقل إلى الساحة الدولية بعد انتخابه عضوًا في اللجنة التنفيذية لـ”فيفا”، كما أوكلت إليه مهام الإشراف على عدة فعاليات ومشروعات دولية تحت مظلة الاتحاد الدولي، ليستمر حتى الآن في الحفاظ على موقعه كممثل بارز للكرة الإفريقية والمصرية على المستوى العالمي.
Pathum Nissanka’s 58-ball 72 and Wanindu Hasaranga’s hat-trick go in vain as Sri Lanka lose their second game
Andrew Fidel Fernando30-Oct-20215:33
Jayawardene: A bit disappointed that the Sri Lanka bowlers bowled in the slot to Miller
South Africa’s chase veered, almost stalled, and threatened to careen off a cliff – particularly when Wanindu Hasaranga claimed a T20I hat-trick to go with the ODI one he took on debut. But, in the end, taking the game deep, trusting their finisher, and hoping Sri Lanka’s inexperience would show, ended up working for them.With 14 required off the last five balls, Lahiru Kumara missed his length twice, put two balls in David Miller’s arc, and the batter cleared his front leg, brought that big back lift down, and smoked Kumara waaay over deep midwicket, for two sixes that very nearly cleared the stands. He got a single off the next ball, meaning South Africa were tied, with two balls remaining. Kagiso Rabada, who had fielded brilliantly, then edged the next ball for four, and South Africa were home with a ball to spare.The victory means South Africa stay in the running for a semi-final spot, while Sri Lanka find themselves needing several other results to go their way if they are to be in contention.Earlier, Sri Lanka had stumbled through the middle overs – not for the first time – against spin. Tabraiz Shamsi took 3 for 17, as Sri Lanka slumped from 61 for 1 to 110 for 6, the run rate slowing substantially as those wickets fell. They ended with a total of 142, the last wicket falling off the last delivery. It never really seemed enough, even if their bowlers did well to make it seem a good total.Watch cricket live on ESPN+

Nissanka shows his T20 smarts It wasn’t necessarily an exemplary T20 knock. But for this very flawed Sri Lanka side, it was good enough. Pathum Nissanka made only 18 from his first 20 deliveries, in the powerplay. But he stuck around, surviving a close lbw chance off Keshav Maharaj through the middle overs, to accelerate later in the innings, hitting three fours and a six off the last nine deliveries he raced to finish with 72 off 58.Shamsi bosses it yet again The world’s top-ranked T20I bowler showed why he is so highly rated. He gave away only a single run in his first over, which suggested Sri Lanka were looking just to play him out safely. But then he got wickets in each of his remaining three overs, even when batters weren’t trying to be especially aggressive against him. He got two caught-and-bowleds – Bhanuka Rajapaksa and Avishka Fernando coming down the track looking for singles, but failing to get to the pitch, and spooning catches right back at Shamsi. For his third scalp, Shamsi got Hasaranga to hole out to long-on. He finished with the game’s best figures of 3 for 17.Wanindu Hasaranga pegged South Africa back with a hat-trick•ICC via Getty
Hasaranga hat-tricks Sri Lanka back into the game As if totally unwilling to be done by Shamsi – the only bowler above him on the T20I rankings – Hasaranga got three wickets of his own, all in a row. The first of these was probably the most important wicket. It wasn’t Hasaranga’s best googly, but he deceived the in-form Aiden Markram nonetheless, and knocked back his off stump. That wicket had come off the last ball of the 15th over, and then when he next came back to the bowling crease, in the 18th, Hasaranga got two wickets first up. He had Bavuma caught at deep midwicket off a genuine half-tracker – Bavuma not managing to clear the fielder, or miss him. Next ball, Dwaine Pretorius holed out to long-on, and South Africa seemed in serious trouble, with six wickets down and 31 still needed from 16 balls.The big finish Miller just bided his time, and waited for Sri Lanka’s weakest death bowler. Rabada had thankfully struck a six off Dushmantha Chameera in the penultimate over, to keep South Africa in touch. Rabada had the strike at the start of the last over too, but he got a single first ball, and when Miller got to the crease, he was just intent on hitting sixes, and Kumara bowled him the two perfect balls to smash. Miller finished with 23 not out off 13.
Celtic could not break free of Aberdeen at the top of the Scottish Premiership table as they were held to a 2-2 draw at Parkhead on Saturday.
The Hoops and the Dons had both won their openng seven matches in the division ahead of the clash at Paradise over the weekend, but neither side could continue their perfect start.
Reo Hatate and Kyogo Furuhashi had the home team 2-0 ahead at the break, and on course to move three points clear, before goals from Ester Sokler and Graeme Shinnie in the second half rescued a point.
Brendan Rodgers will be hoping that his team can put daylight between themselves and Aberdeen over the coming months to move closer to a fourth straight title.
Captain Callum McGregor, who turned 31 in the summer, is gunning for his tenth Premiership title, having won nine – as part of a 22-trophy haul – in his Celtic career to date.
The former Scotland international, who retired from national duty after the 2024 European Championships, is the current skipper after taking over from iconic Hoops midfielder Scott Brown.
Scott Brown's Celtic career in numbers
In the summer of 2007, the Scottish giants swooped to sign the ‘exciting’ 21-year-old central midfielder from rivals Hibernian for a fee of £4.5m.
It was reported that Rangers were initially expected to secure a deal for the talented youngster, who had played 124 first-team matches for Hibs by the age of 21.
Celtic were able to steal a march on their fierce rivals and landed his services ahead of the 2007/08 campaign, for a record fee between two Scottish sides at the time.
Scott Brown in action for Celtic during the 2016/2017 campaign.
The Scottish dynamo did not take any time to settle into life in Glasgow. In his debut season, Brown produced three goals and four assists in 34 appearances to help his team win the title.
He became a staple of the Celtic midfield for the next 14 years or so and racked up 46 goals and 63 assists in 615 appearances in all competitions before his move to Aberdeen in the summer of 2021.
In those 14 years, Brown won a staggering ten Premiership titles – a feat McGregor hopes to match this term – along with six SFA Cups and seven League Cups.
As the Scotland international, who was capped 55 times by his country, headed into the final years of his career at Parkhead, the club attempted to sign players with a view to being his long-term heir.
Celtic once thought they had found a dream replacement for Scott Brown when they swooped to sign Ivorian starlet Ismaila Soro at the start of 2020.
How much Celtic paid to sign Ismaila Soro
The Hoops reportedly splashed out a fee of £2m to sign the central midfielder from Bnei Yehuda in the January transfer window in the 2019/20 campaign, with Neil Lennon in charge at the time.
He endured a difficult start to his career in Scotland, as the youngster was not selected for a single Premiership game in the second half of the season.
At the start of his first full season with Celtic, Soro admitted that he had problems stepping into Brown’s shoes, as his understudy at the time, but that he remained in Glasgow during lockdown and worked hard to show Lennon that he had the quality to step up.
He claimed it was a “big challenge” to replace what Brown offered in midfield but added that he has a “strong” mentality and would work to make himself a worthy heir.

As you can see in the table above, Soro showed plenty of promise in his first Premiership season, which also happened to be Brown’s last in a Hoops jersey.
The Ivorian gem was more reliable than the veteran Scotsman in his use of the ball and made more tackles and interceptions combined per game on average, whilst winning a similar percentage of his duels on the ground.
First Impressions
What did pundits and fans alike think about their new star signing when they arrived? Football FanCast's 'First Impressions' series has everything you need.
These statistics suggest that Celtic had a dream long-term heir to Brown on their hands, as he had already started to offer similar qualities and attributes as a combative midfield player in the 2020/21 campaign.
Ismaila Soro's Celtic struggles
Despite his promising form under Lennon in his first full campaign in the Premiership, Soro was unable to kick on and become Brown’s replacement after the captain left in the summer of 2021.
Ange Postecoglou came in to replace Lennon in the same summer and the Australian seemingly had different ideas for his midfield, signing James McCarthy ahead of the 2021/22 campaign, and then bringing in Matt O’Riley and Reo Hatate in the January transfer window.
Soro hardly got a look-in that season, featuring in eight Premiership games and starting one league game. In those eight games, the midfielder did not strengthen his case to play regularly, losing 65% of his duels and 76% of his ground duels in the division.
He also only featured in two of the club’s six Europa League group stage matches, as Postecoglou made it clear that the Ivorian was not a part of his long-term plans.
Soro was then sent out on loan to Arouca in Portugal for the 2022/23 campaign, in which he made 22 starts in the Liga Portugal, before being released for nothing in the summer of 2023.
Rodgers replaced Postecoglou that summer and seemingly did not want to give the 26-year-old another chance to impress, despite playing regularly in Portugal in the previous term, and allowed him to move on for nothing.
Celtic had a star who was "similar to Messi", then he left for nothing
The Celtic youngster never lived up to his potential at Parkhead, after being compared to Lionel Messi.

Soro signed for Beitar Jerusalem on a free transfer and made 30 league starts during the 2023/24 campaign, which shows that he has finally emerged as a key player for a club.
Unfortunately, it did not work out for him as a replacement for Brown, after appearing to be his dream heir under Lennon, but he is now playing regularly again and still has plenty of time left, at the age of 26, to go on and enjoy a successful career.
Manchester United are interested in signing a £520,000-a-year player as the first signing of the Ruben Amorim era, according to a recent report. The Red Devils are expected to announce the appointment of the Portuguese later on Thursday, with him taking charge on the 24th of November, as he remains in charge of Sporting for their next three games.
Dalot says Man Utd ace who struggled for Ten Hag is actually "unbelievable"
Diogo Dalot says a United teammate is incredible behind the scenes.
ByBrett Worthington Oct 31, 2024 Man Utd transfer news
The 39-year-old is not through the Old Trafford door yet, but he will be pleased to see his new side sail to a 5-2 win over Leicester City in the Carabao Cup on Wednesday night.
Amorim has yet to get to grips with the United squad, but he is already potentially looking at where he can improve the team. In a new report, Amorim is said to want to bring Goncalo Inacio, Marcus Edwards and Pedro Goncalves with him to Old Trafford. All three players play for him at Sporting, and they are considered very important in his system.
They are not the only players he is interested in bringing to United, as the Red Devils may now have the edge in the race to sign striker Viktor Gyokeres. The Swedish forward has been sensational in Portugal, and while Arsenal are keen on the player, the Red Devils could be in line for his signature due to Amorim’s arrival at Old Trafford.
Ashworth urgently wants Wolves star at Old Trafford
According to Give Me Sport, incoming manager Amorim is keen to sign a new left-back and United have identified Wolves’ Rayan Ait-Nouri as the ideal transfer target. The 23-year-old has been at Molineaux since July 2021, when he joined from Angers SCO, and has been impressive for the Midlands side, especially this season.
Ait-Nouri, who Gary O’Neil described as a “great lad” last season, has scored three goals and recorded two assists in nine Premier League games this season, his latest goal coming against Brighton in the 2-2 draw last Saturday.
His performances have now caught the eye of United, as the report states Dan Ashworth and Co “will urgently look to acquire a left-sided wing-back” due to Amorim’s system requirements. The Red Devils’ interest is expected to intensify at the turn of the year, as he will enter the final 18 months of his contract, but Wolves do have the option to extend that by another 12 months.

Liverpool are also keeping an eye on the defender’s situation at Wolves, but given the injury concerns to Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia and Amorim’s desire to play a back three/five, United may feel the need to press more seriously. That said, Ait-Nouri, who currently earns £520,000 a year, remains firmly in O’Neil’s plans, meaning it will not be an easy task to get him out of Wolves.
He provided a timely reminder of his red-ball credentials with a Test summer looming

Lutho Sipamla bowls•AFP via Getty Images
Lutho Sipamla was one of three bowlers to pick up a six-for in the match as Lions beat Warriors by an innings and 20 runs to move to the top of the first-class points table.Sipamla took 6 for 34 as Warriors were bowled out for 96 in their first innings, before Marco Jansen took 6 for 38, as Lions were dismissed for 170. Then Sisanda Magala’s 6 for 30 knocked the Warriors over for just 54 on an unusually bowler-friendly St George’s Park strip. There were no individual scores of 40 or more in the match.”We don’t usually get such seamer-friendly conditions at this venue,” Sipamla, who moved from Warriors to Lions two seasons ago, told ESPNcricinfo. “The pitch gave us a lot. It wasn’t drastic movement and we just had to be very consistent with where we put the ball.”The result is that Sipamla is now the top wicket-taker in Division One of the competition with 12 wickets from the two matches he has played so far, at an average of 13.50, and has provided a timely reminder of his red-ball credentials with a Test summer looming. South Africa host India for three Tests, starting in mid-December at Sipamla’s new home ground, the Wanderers, where he last played for the senior side earlier this year. He made his debut last summer, in the series against Sri Lanka, where he took 10 wickets across two Tests but then found himself on the sidelines.”It’s tough with the national set up with KG (Kagiso Rabada), Anna (Anrich Nortje) and Lungi (Ngidi) all fit,” ” Sipamla said. “Last year, I got the opportunity because there was an injury (Rabada was recovering from a groin strain) and I took it with both hands, played well. Then, the senior players came back and just made things tough. I was part of the Test series with Pakistan as well but couldn’t get game time because its’ tough competition. But I am still in the system and am focusing on the Lions.”After traveling with the national side to Pakistan in January-February but was then not included on their winter tour to West Indies. Instead, he went with the South African A team to Zimbabwe where he got game time and finished as their third-highest wicket-taker in the one-day series and second highest in the curtailed unofficial Test series. Now, he is one of the leaders of Lions’ attack, albeit the most inexperienced in age terms, and is relishing the time with former Test player Duanne Olivier, and experienced domestic campaigners, Sisanda Magala and Malusi Siboto.”I am the youngest among the four so I am learning a lot,” Sipamla said. “My move to the Lions was to try and get as much exposure to senior players as I can. I am trying to be a sponge and it’s helping me a lot.”His new-ball partner, Olivier, has instilled in Sipamla an appreciation for the present moment. “He has taught me about mental toughness and also aggression. He focuses on the now and the task at hand. Opening the bowling with him has allowed me to be calmer, and just see what’s necessary at that moment in time,” he said, while Magala helps Sipamla find his fight. “He is also another aggressive type of bowler. He is fit, he is strong and he adds a lot of value in terms of seniority.”Although Sipamla does not have specific boxes to tick to catch the national selectors’ eyes again, he is working on, “trying to keep things a lot tighter and to have more control on where I place the ball,” he said. “And working on the mental side of the game.” He recognises that the “Proteas are on the up,”and is happy to bide his time until he is reconsidered. That may be sooner than he expects, though. South Africa have a heavy Test load over the coming months with the India series, a tour to New Zealand and matches against Bangladesh in the home summer before a tour to England in August.In other results:Division One: Pite van Biljon scored a second successive century, sits atop the overall run charts and set Knights up for a big win over North West. Knights scored 418 in their first innings, thanks for van Biljon and Patrick Kruger’s 192* and then bowled North West out for 237 and asking them to follow-on. North West were then bowled out for 197, leaving the Knights with a target of 17 runs. Mbulelo Budaza took 6 for 116 in the match.Titans and Dolphins played out a high-scoring draw at SuperSport Park. Jordan Hermann scored a century for the Titans, Sarel Erwee matched that with 163 to give the Dolphins a slender lead and the Titans were into their second innings, 117 runs ahead, when a final day washout meant no further play was possible.Pieter Malan gets forward•Getty Images
In Paarl, Boland drew with neighbours Western Province with former Test opener Pieter Malan the star of the show. Malan followed up a first innings 96 with 117* in the second innings. In between that, Western Province’s Tony de Zorzi also scored a century.Division Two: Offspinner Aubrey Swanepoel’s 6 for 42 bowled Northern Cape to a 130-run win over KwaZulu-Natal Inland in Kimberley. Northern Cape scored big in both their innings, making 333 in the first dig and declared on 301 for 9 in the second, where Ernest Kemm scored 121. Four of Kwa-Zulu Natal Inland’s top five reached first innings half-centuries but they were bowled out for 182 in their second innings in chase of 313.Musawenkosi Twala and Thomas Hobson traded hundreds in Benoni, where Easterns and Limpopo drew their match. Easterns racked up 441 in their first innings and bowled Limpopo out for 261 and enforced the follow-on. Easterns only took three second innings wickets and Limpopo finished on 207 for 3.No play on the first day and bad light on the last ended what was shaping up to be a thriller between South Western Districts (SWD) and Mpumalanga, which finished with SWD 41 runs away from victory. They were chasing 206 after falling 102 runs behind in their first innings and then bowling Mpumalanga out for 104. SWD were on track for victory on 166 for 2 when no further play was possible.
A informação de que Carlinhos sofreu uma grave lesão e se tornou uma baixa no Botafogo abriu caminho para jovens acirrarem a disputa pela lateral esquerda. Jonathan Silva e Hugo serão as opções que o técnico Enderson Moreira terá à disposição a partir do confronto com o Nova Iguaçu, marcado para a próxima segunda-feira (7), pela quarta rodada do Campeonato Carioca.

Jonathan Silva foi o escolhido para substituir Carlinhos na partida contra o Madureira. O lateral aproveitou as brechas por seu lado e deu o passe para Raí definir a vitória por 4 a 2 no Nilton Santos.
O jogador de 23 anos teve um início promissor com a camisa alvinegra. Depois disto, transferiu-se para o futebol europeu, mas não conseguiu se firmar no Almería (ESP) e no Las Palmas (ESP). De volta ao Botafogo, é visto no clube como um jogador que tem versatilidade.
Hugo, por sua vez, tem 20 anos e rende grandes expectativas da diretoria do Botafogo. Seu vínculo com o clube foi prorrogado até 2024.
A temporada do jovem foi afetada por uma lesão na clavícula que o tirou por dois meses de campo. Aos poucos, se recuperou e foi ganhando chance entre os titulares e retomou a briga por espaço na lateral esquerda. Hugo tem a seu favor o fato de gostar de partir para cima, jogando mais avançado.
O Botafogo lidera a competição com sete pontos em três jogos. A equipe supera o Flamengo e o Vasco (que têm a mesma pontuação) no saldo de gols.
تجاهل الفرنسي كيليان مبابي الحديث عن خلافة المدير الفني لمنتخب الديوك ديديه ديشامب، عندما سُئل عن زين الدين زيدان مثله الأعلى.
مبابي تحدث كثيرًا عن زيدان وأنه مثله الأعلى في كرة القدم، وكان أحد أسباب انضمامه إلى ريال مدريد، في ظل ارتباط زيزو بخلافة ديديه ديشامب.
وقال مبابي في تصريحات لصحيفة “لو باريزيان” الفرنسية: “لا أعرف من سيخلف ديشامب، وأعرف من تريدونني أن أتحدث عنه، لكنني لن أتحدث عنه لأن هذا ليس من اختصاصي”.

وأضاف: “هناك رئيس للاتحاد الفرنسي، وهو من سيتخذ القرار، الجميع يتحدث عن زيدان، لذا لن نتظاهر بأننا نعيش في كهف ولا نعرف ما يحدث، لكنني لن أتحدث عن ذلك، لأنه كما قلت لكم ليس من شأني”.
وعن خلافاته مع ديشامب، قال: “أعتقد أنها أمور لا يعلم بها الناس، في أي عمل توجد خلافات بين الزملاء، وهذا لا يعني أنك لا تحبهم أو تحترمهم، الجميع يعرفني، إذا حدث انفصال بيني وبين شخص ما، لا أبقى على اتصال، ولا أستطيع التظاهر بذلك”.
وواصل: “هذا لا يعني أنه لا توجد خلافات، لقد حدثت بالفعل خلافات، لكنني أكن كل الاحترام والتقدير للمدرب، كان هو مدربي الوحيد مع منتخب فرنسا واستدعاني لأول مرة، حققنا نجاحًا معًا، ولا يمكن لعلاقتنا أن تنتهي بالانفصال بسبب خلافات، كما أن تلك الخلافات ليست جدية على الإطلاق”.
وعن بدايته السيئة في ريال مدريد، قال: “ليست المرة الأولى التي أمرّ فيها بموقف كهذا، ما يحدث هو أن وضعي الآن مختلف وكذلك التوقعات كانت أكبر، مررت بلحظات صعبة ولكن الحديث عنها ليس مهمًا الآن، لقد تغيّر كل شيء حولي”.
واختتم: “لم نفز بالبطولة الأوروبية، ولم أقدم أداء جيدا، ونهاية الموسم مع باريس سان جيرمان لعبت أقل، مع تراكمات الإصابة والأداء الضعيف، أمور لم أمر بها كثيرًا في مسيرتي، لذلك كان علي تجاوز الأمر والإيمان بنفسي”.
