Bayern Munch president Herbert Hainer embraces the club history, but is also eager to see it pave its way into the future - with fans by its side. "FC Bayern is a club that values dialogue - something we've been putting into practice for many years, not least through our numerous member engagement activities. My personal highlight in this regard was the revival of our promotion walk around Lake Tegernsee in the summer, 60 years after our promotion to the Bundesliga,"

Another year of football is over and it's time to start looking ahead to 2026. The Premier League will reach its conclusion in May, with Arsenal looking to win their first title in over two decades - but can the Gunners see the job through this time? Will an English club be crowned champions of Europe? Manchester City, Liverpool, Chelsea, Arsenal and Tottenham are all looking to reach the last 16.

"A good performance, but in the end not a result we can be happy with," the 32-year-old told BBC Sport.

Charlton's trip to Fratton Park brought more frustration than optimism, as two struggling sides served up a reminder of how unforgiving life can be near the foot of the Championship. Portsmouth may have been poor, but Charlton's failure to take their chances and a lapse in concentration at the end saw them leave empty-handed.

But the reigning Scottish champions were caught out early on as Stephen O'Donnell's excellent right-sided cross found Ibrahim Said, who stooped down to head a low header past Kasper Schmeichel 14 minutes in. Nancy's visitors failed to muster a shot on target in the first half, and matters worsened in the 58th minute when Schmeichel's mistake in possession allowed Elliot Watt to convert into an empty net.

It's been an eventful, exciting and special year, at the end of which we have well over 430,000 members, which says a lot about how much is being done right in this club, both on and off the pitch. On behalf of the club, I would like to thank all members and fans for their support and loyalty,

Cristiano Ronaldo saw his Al Nassr side drop points for the first in the Saudi Pro League season as two goals from Georginio Wijnaldum earned Al Ettifaq a draw. Jorge Jesus' side had won their opening 10 league games and looked set for another victory when Ronaldo deflected them ahead. But former Premier League midfielder Wijnaldum had other ideas and his late leveller ensured a share of the spoils and cut Al Nassr's lead over Al Taawoun to just three points.

It's a shame that such a beautiful match was played so far away because I think that if it had been played closer, the stadium would have been filled with many of our fans.
