Native Doctor Arrested For Allegedly Scamming Fans With Mali AFCON Victory Claims

Wale busari03 mins

A self-proclaimed marabout was arrested in Bamako for allegedly defrauding football fans by promising victory for the Mali national team at the Africa Cup of Nations. The man, identified as Mr Sinayogo, reportedly collected over 22 million CFA francs, roughly €33,500, from supporters before Mali’s 1-0 quarter-final defeat to Senegal. He is now being held by the cybercrime division on charges of fraud. Two videographers who visited him confirmed his detention, noting that authorities had delayed action while the tournament was ongoing. According to a social media content creator close to Sinayogo, the man, formerly a political activist, “proclaimed himself a marabout overnight and made a fortune.” Mali’s hopes of reaching the semi-finals ended in Tangiers on January 9 when recalled Senegal striker Iliman Ndiaye scored in the first half. The match turned further against Mali when captain Yves Bissouma was sent off in first-half added time after receiving a second yellow card. Mali goalkeeper Djigui Diarra made a string of outstanding saves, but a costly error allowed Senegal to take the lead. Senegal, the 2022 champions, will face either title-holders Ivory Coast or seven-time winners Egypt in the semi-finals. Ndiaye, who was named player of the match, said, “I am happy to have won the award, but the most important thing is we have progressed to the semi-finals. We played well and are constantly improving.” Senegal coach Pape Thiaw added, “It was not an easy match against a talented Mali team. Had we been more clinical in front of goal we could have scored more goals.” Mali coach Tom Saintfiet said, “It was a difficult match for us because we had to play with 10 men. I am proud of the players for what they did, not only tonight but throughout the AFCON.” Earlier in the match, Bissouma was yellow-carded for fouling Senegal forward Sadio Mane, while Mali striker Lassine Sinayoko was denied by a brilliant sliding tackle from Senegal’s Krepin Diatta.

Nigerian Player, Terem Moffi And Teammate, Jérémie Boga Seek OGC Nice Exit After Violent Fan Attack

Wale busari03 mins

Nigeria international Terem Moffi and his OGC Nice teammate Jérémie Boga have taken formal steps to end their contracts with the Ligue 1 side following a violent confrontation with supporters late last year. The duo were attacked by angry fans at Nice’s training ground in November 2025 after a 3-1 defeat to Lorient. Reports said the supporters physically assaulted the players, hitting, kicking and spitting on them in the aftermath of the loss. According to Get French Football News, both players were targeted over separate incidents that sparked outrage among sections of the fanbase. Moffi, a former Lorient player, was seen laughing with Lorient president Loïc Féry on Ligue 1 Plus after the match, which marked Nice’s sixth consecutive defeat in all competitions. Boga also came under fire after inviting Olympique de Marseille fans to the Allianz Riviera ahead of Nice’s heavy 5-1 home defeat to their rivals, an action for which he later apologised. Neither Moffi nor Boga has featured for Nice since the incident. L’Équipe reports that the players have now officially initiated the process to leave the club. “Since the incident, Boga and Moffi have been unable to return to first-team training,” Get French Football News wrote. “Their initial sick leave period was meant to last around one week; however, it has been repeatedly extended. The two Nice players have also opened legal proceedings against the alleged perpetrators of the violence on November 30. The players’ lawyers have now moved to see their contracts terminated, on the basis that the necessary measures to ensure their security were not taken by the club.” The report added that a meeting with the league’s judicial commission is scheduled for Thursday. Moffi and Boga are both contracted to Nice until the summer of 2027. The 26-year-old Moffi recently returned from injury after being sidelined since October and has featured in 10 matches this season, scoring two league goals.

Real Madrid Appoints Álvaro Arbeloa As First-Team Manager After Success With Youth Teams

Wale busari04 mins

Real Madrid has named former defender and Castilla coach Álvaro Arbeloa as the club’s new first-team manager, the club confirmed in an official statement. The 43-year-old, a lifelong Madridista, moves up after six years of coaching within Real Madrid’s youth academy and reserve setup, making his appointment a major internal promotion. According to the club, “Álvaro Arbeloa will be the new first-team coach. He has been in charge of Castilla since June 2025 and has spent his entire coaching career in our youth academy since 2020. He led the Under-14s A to a league title in 2020–2021, coached the Under-16s in 2021–2022, and the Under-19s from 2022 to 2025. With the Under-19s, he won a treble in 2022–2023 (League, Copa del Rey, and UEFA Youth League) and another league title in 2024–2025.” Arbeloa enjoyed a distinguished playing career at Real Madrid from 2009 to 2016, making 238 appearances and winning eight major trophies, including two Champions League titles, one La Liga crown, two Copa del Rey trophies, one Club World Cup, one UEFA Super Cup, and one Spanish Super Cup. He was also part of Spain’s golden generation, lifting the 2010 World Cup and the 2008 and 2012 European Championships. The appointment follows the mutual departure of Xabi Alonso as first-team coach earlier this month. Sources say Arbeloa’s promotion is aimed at maintaining continuity, prioritizing youth development, and leveraging his deep knowledge of the club during this transitional period. During his playing days, Arbeloa was known for his versatility, tactical intelligence, and reliability as a full-back. He played a key role during the shift from the Galácticos era to the Cristiano Ronaldo-led dominance, contributing to multiple domestic and European titles. Arbeloa began his coaching career immediately after retiring in 2017, joining Real Madrid’s academy in 2020. He quickly gained a reputation for nurturing talent and implementing possession-based, structured football. His greatest success came with the Juvenil A (Under-19) team, securing a historic treble in 2022–2023 and a league title in 2024–2025. After stepping up to Castilla in June 2025, he guided the reserve team to a mid-table finish in the Primera Federación while integrating several academy graduates into the first-team squad. Club president Florentino Pérez is said to have personally backed Arbeloa’s promotion, seeing him as the ideal link between Real Madrid’s youth system and the senior team.

BREAKING: Real Madrid Sack Xabi Alonso After Super Cup Loss To Barcelona

Wale busari03 mins

Real Madrid have officially ended their association with head coach Xabi Alonso, just hours after the club’s dramatic three–two defeat to Barcelona in the Spanish Super Cup final played in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. The club confirmed that the decision was reached by mutual agreement, bringing an abrupt end to the forty-four-year-old’s short spell in charge at the Santiago Bernabeu. The timing of the exit, coming less than a day after the painful loss to their fiercest rivals, has fueled speculation about mounting internal pressure within the club. Alonso, who returned to Madrid last summer from Bayer Leverkusen, endured a difficult and turbulent tenure. Reports of dressing-room unrest had followed him in recent weeks, with claims that he was struggling to retain the full support of the squad. The Super Cup defeat, which saw Madrid surrender late against Barcelona, appeared to be the final straw. In an official statement, the club said, “Real Madrid CF announces that, by mutual agreement between the club and Xabi Alonso, it has been decided to end his time as first team coach.” Despite the sudden nature of the decision, Real Madrid paid glowing tribute to the former midfielder, adding, “Xabi Alonso will always have the affection and admiration of all Madrid fans because he is a Real Madrid legend and has always represented the values of our club. Real Madrid will always be his home.” The statement also acknowledged the efforts of Alonso’s backroom staff, saying, “Our club thanks Xabi Alonso and his entire technical team for their work and dedication during this time, and wishes them the best of luck in this new stage of their lives.” While the club maintained a cordial tone, the swift move has left supporters stunned. With crucial fixtures ahead in both La Liga and the Champions League, attention now turns to how Real Madrid will steady the ship following Alonso’s sudden departure.
