- FC Porto have fired head coach Jose Pesiero after less than five months, the club confirmed in a statement. Peseiro was the ninth man to coach the 27-times Portuguese champions in the last 12 seasons since the departure of Jose Mourinho.
- CalcioMercato report that Bayern Munich are ready to launch a £60m (€80m) bid for Higuain if Robert Lewandowski moves to Real Madrid. Higuain was earlier linked with a move to Manchester United but the Bavarian giants are looking to hijack the move. Higuain is in demand after bagging 36 goals in 35 games in Serie A this season.
- Zlatan Ibrahimovic has hinted at a move to former club Malmo, after heavy speculations tipped the forward to become Jose Mourinho’s first signing at Manchester United. He reportedly told his hometown fans to “wait for him” during Sweden's 0-0 draw against Slovenia last night. The Sun quoted him as saying “ "I love Malmo and I wish I could play today. I apologise for that, but I will, I will. Just wait for me."
