Mbappe, the French football sensation, has revealed that his broken nose could potentially be a “target” for Belgium in their upcoming last-16 clash.

Despite the setback, Mbappe remains determined to make an impact in the knockout stages and help his team progress further in the competition.
In other news, Vivianne Miedema, the prolific Dutch striker, has made a sensational move to Manchester City on a free transfer after departing from Arsenal. The Gunners confirmed that Miedema would be leaving the club following the expiration of her contract.
Since joining Arsenal in 2017, the former Bayern Munich player has etched her name in the history books of the Women’s Super League, becoming the all-time leading goalscorer with an impressive tally of 79 goals. During her time at Arsenal, Miedema made 172 appearances across all competitions, scoring an incredible 125 goals and providing 50 assists. However, her last couple of seasons at the club were marred by injuries, which limited her playing time.
Despite the setbacks, Miedema expressed her excitement about joining Manchester City, citing their ambition to win titles as a key factor in her decision. The 27-year-old striker, who recently renewed her contract with Arsenal in 2022, has struggled with injuries, including an ACL injury in December 2022. As a result, she only made 13 appearances this season, with Arsenal finishing third in the league. Miedema’s move to Manchester City presents a fresh start for her, and she is determined to make the most of it.
Miedema’s achievements on the field are nothing short of remarkable. She has won the WSL title with Arsenal in the 2018/19 season and has lifted the Conti Cup three times. Additionally, she has secured two Frauen-Bundesliga titles with Bayern Munich and was part of the Netherlands team that triumphed in the European Women’s Championship in 2017. Her goal-scoring prowess is unparalleled, as she holds records for being the fastest WSL striker to reach 50 goals and 100 goal involvements. Furthermore, she is the leading scorer for both the men’s and women’s teams of the Netherlands.
Recognized as one of the greatest talents in modern women’s football, Miedema has been nominated for the Ballon d’Or Feminin three times and has received numerous other accolades. Her move to Manchester City is seen as a significant boost for the club, as they aim to compete at the highest level and challenge for major honors. City manager Gareth Taylor expressed his excitement about Miedema’s arrival, stating that he is looking forward to seeing her flourish over the next three years. With their shared ambition to compete on the highest stage, Miedema’s addition to the squad is expected to elevate Manchester City’s performance and strengthen their title aspirations.
