A noticeable shift is taking place in Barcelona's midfield hierarchy, and Frenkie de Jong is no longer immune to competition under Hansi Flick. According to a recent update from AS, the Dutchman has lost the privileged status he once enjoyed in the German coach's starting XI, largely due to the impressive emergence of Eric Garcia in a more influential role.

Ardon Jashari has barely played for AC Milan since joining the club in the summer, but it is not due to a lack of quality. Instead, through injury. A summer transfer whose season was halted before the end of the same mercato in which he moved in. Nightmarish, but that has not stopped Jashari. In fact, reports during his recovery suggested that he was directly responsible for his return being quicker.

I would be very surprised if Chelsea would even consider letting Andrey Santos go, especially to a Premier League rival in Man United. He's a top young player, he's very highly regarded within the corridors of power at Stamford Bridge. He had a very good season on loan at Strasbourg and has come back into the Chelsea side this season.

It's always nice to be called up to the national team. I wasn't called up, but that's okay; I need to get some minutes. Maybe he'll call up whoever he thinks is best. I'm working and will always work to reach my goal, which is the national team.
