Netherlands manager Ronald Koeman has stated that he thinks Cody Gakpo may have joined Liverpool too soon in his career.

The forward was signed for £37m from PSV Eindhoven during the January transfer window following some eye-catching FIFA World Cup performances in Qatar, but Gakpo has failed to live up to expectations thus far.

The 23-year-old is yet to score for the Reds and has not even won a game with his new club despite making six appearances.

Speaking on Andy van der Meyde’s YouTube show, the new Netherlands coach Koeman – who took over after the World Cup – stated that the move to Liverpool perhaps came too soon for Gakpo:

“The level in England is higher than in the Netherlands, but they are also young boys, aren’t they? Like [Ryan] Gravenberch going to Bayern and not playing. Then that is difficult.

“You can see that, that he [Gakpo] has ended up in a team that is not doing well. Then it becomes more difficult for him, as a new signing. You are tested right away. And if you don’t score or you’re not important and you don’t win any matches, it’s very difficult, especially for a young player. If that’s was someone aged 28 with experience, it would be different.”

Bronze medalists in the 2022 World Cup, Croatia will face the Netherlands in the Nations League semifinals in June, while Italy and Spain will renew their rivalry in the other game.

Last year, the four countries won their respective League A groups and will compete in the mini-tournament this summer to determine the 2022-23 title.

Wednesday’s draw, conducted at UEFA headquarters in Switzerland, has the Dutch hosting the Croats, fresh from reaching the World Cup semifinals in Qatar, in Rotterdam on June 14 with Italy and Spain clashing in Enschede the next day.

The winners will compete in the final in Rotterdam on June 18, with the third-place playoff taking place earlier that day in Enschede.

Spain finished second to France in the last edition in 2021, defeating hosts Italy in the semifinals with a Ferran Torres double in a 2-1 victory in Milan.

Italy and the Netherlands also return for a second appearance at the finals while this is Croatia’s first time.

Italians finished third in 2021, while the Dutch finished second in Portugal’s maiden competition in 2019.

Every European nation competes in the Nations League every two years. The nations are split into four-tier leagues. It has basically taken the place of friendly matches that were formerly held on days designated for international competition.

Manchester United striker Wout Weghorst thinks he is a good fit for the playing style that manager Erik ten Hag has implemented at the club this season.

Weghorst is confident that Ten Hag’s personal qualities will make him an asset for the manager between now and the season’s finish. Ten Hag’s idea of high-tempo football feeds into the historic “United Way” that has been at Old Trafford for decades.

“I think [pressing] is one of my strengths. Especially without the ball, to put pressure on an opponent [and] be active,” the towering Dutchman said in his first interview with club media.

“That’s something I am capable of and that’s also something in the way the trainer [Ten Hag] wants to play. He wants to play aggressive; he wants to go high on the pitch, try to recover the ball there, as quickly as possible, and I think I can help the team with that.”

Weghorst joined a struggling Burnley team in January of last year, entering challenging circumstances. He had previously established himself as a prolific goal scorer in Germany and his home Netherlands, but in 20 Premier League games for the Clarets, he managed just two goals.

His goal tally at Besiktas matched that of the guy who had become a hot property at Wolfsburg, and United will be hoping that he can fill a vital vacancy in the squad.

Weghorst, who has chosen the number 27 shirt for United, could make his Premier League debut when the Red Devils visit Crystal Palace on Wednesday night.

Manchester United has revealed the jersey number of its latest signing, Wout Weghorst from Besiktas.

The striker’s loan at Besiktas was terminated on Friday by mutual arrangement, and he now joins Old Trafford for the rest of the season. Due to Burnley’s refusal to include a recall clause in his season-long trade agreement, United has paid the Turkish team £2.6 million in compensation via Burnley, the player’s parent club.

At the end of the season, United does not have a buy option. After scoring just twice in 20 Premier League appearances for Burnley the previous season, Weghorst scored nine goals in 18 games with Besiktas. His two comeback goals for the Netherlands against Argentina in the World Cup quarterfinal last month are well-known.

The attacker joined the team at 9 p.m. on Friday and will remain there for the next four months of the campaign, where he will wear the number 27 shirt for the club.

Marouane Fellaini and Alex Telles, among others, have worn the outfit in the past. Weghorst, who wore No. 28 throughout his first two seasons with Emmen, will be wearing No. 27 for the first time in his career.

Speaking upon signing for United, Weghorst said: “I feel privileged to be joining Manchester United. I’ve played against the club in the past and it’s a fantastic feeling to now have the chance to pull on the famous red shirt.

“I’ve seen United’s progress under Erik ten Hag this season and can’t wait to start playing my part in pushing the team towards its aims. Whatever happens in the next few months, I can promise to give everything to the club for as long as I am here.

“I thank everyone who has played a part in getting me to this stage, and now I am looking forward to meeting my new team-mates and getting involved straight away.”

John Murtough, Manchester United football director, added: ‘‘Wout has a consistent goalscoring record across several European leagues, and his attributes will add a further dimension to our squad for the remainder of the season.

“We were also attracted by his strong personality and dedicated approach to football, which fits perfectly with the spirit that Erik is building within our squad. He has shown a huge desire to join Manchester United and be part of what we’re striving to achieve this season.”

Weghorst scored 70 goals in 144 games for German club Wolfsburg before moving to Burnley in January of last year. In 19 appearances for his nation, the Dutchman has also scored five goals.

Kylian Mbappe has accused French Football Federation (FFF) president Noel Le Graet of disrespecting legendary midfielder Zinedine Zidane.

Le Graet stated that he did not speak with Zidane about taking over as France coach after the French coach signed a contract extension amid speculation that he will leave after the 2022 World Cup.

Le Graet told RMC Sport: “Did Zidane tried to reach me? Certainly not, I wouldn’t even have picked up the phone anyway.” He added: “I’ve never met him, we never considered parting with Didier.”

Zidane has been considered for a number of positions in recent months, most recently declining a job offer to become the head coach of the United States.

The former Real Madrid and France player has been without a job ever since ending his second stint as manager at Santiago Bernabeu at the conclusion of the 2020–21 season. He has also been linked with the position of Brazil’s national team manager.

France will focus on the Euro 2024 qualifying campaign after finishing as runners-up in the World Cup, beginning with a match against the Netherlands on March 24.

Former Manchester United star Daley Blind is reportedly set to join Bayern Munich as a free agent after mutually terminating his contract with Ajax.

According to The Athletic, the Dutch defender is set to undergo a medical with Bayern Munich ahead of sealing a permanent move to the Allianz Arena.

It is expected that he will sign a deal with the option of an additional year that runs through the end of the current season. He was spotted early on Thursday at Amsterdam’s Schipol airport before departing for Southern Germany.

Blind decided in December to finish his previous contract with Ajax early after doing well for the Netherlands at the 2022 World Cup.

After Lucas Hernandez tore his anterior cruciate ligament during France’s opening match against Australia at the World Cup, Bayern is looking to add defensive reinforcements.

In addition, Blind’s performance in Qatar demonstrated his continued ability to perform at the greatest level as he assisted Oranje in reaching the quarterfinals. Blind has the necessary expertise to fill that gap.

Before joining Manchester United in 2014, the 32-year-old began his career with Ajax in 2008 and won four Eredivisie titles with them. Before returning to Ajax in 2018 and winning three additional league titles, he played for the Red Devils for four seasons, winning the Europa League and FA Cup. Blind will seek to add the Bundesliga, DFB Pokal, and Champions League to his trophy collection should his move to Bayern go through.

When Bayern resume their season against RB Leipzig on January 20, the defender might be available to manager Julian Nagelsmann.

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has stated that new recruit Cody Gakpo will most likely play on the left side of a front three but has praised the 23-year-old’s versatility in filling a variety of offensive positions if necessary.

Gakpo, who had an outstanding 18 months at PSV Eindhoven and most recently shined for the Netherlands at the World Cup, has now signed a deal with the Reds worth up to £50 million.

Manchester United had been leading the chase, but Liverpool ended up beating their Premier League rivals to what could end up being one of the biggest deals this January.

“He’s a really, really good player so the package is really interesting. That’s why we were very interested to get him in and I’m really happy we could do it,” Klopp said at a press conference on Thursday, adding that it was a ‘great day’ for all involved.

The Liverpool boss was also pleased that there wasn’t so much as a sniff of the deal publicly until it was all but over the line.

RELATED:

• Enzo Fernandez agrees to join Chelsea
• Jurgen Klopp hints at a shocking revelation about Cody Gakpo pursuit.

“To bring in Cody the way we did is a really good sign. Quite a few people knew about it and nothing came out which is very, very helpful,” he explained.

As for where Liverpool fans might expect to see Gakpo on the pitch, Klopp has a clear idea already.

“The position he has played most often is on the left, that is clear. But he can play all four positions up front if you play a 4-2-3-1 and is still very young. The position he probably prefers he can play is on the left of a 4-3-3,” the Liverpool boss explained.

The Reds signed Luis Diaz this time last year to play on the left, then allowed Sadio Mane to head to Bayern Munich in the summer. But the Colombian has spent much of the season sidelined through injury, with fellow forward Diogo Jota also unavailable.

Klopp insisted that the decision to sign Gakpo was not influenced by the absences of Diaz and Jota, stressing the decision to recruit was made some time ago. The only influential factor in that sense, he said, might have been the decision to do it now rather than wait until the summer.

“We decided to do something from the sports point of view without having a green light from the financial side two or three months ago. In the end because we did it early, it might have been influenced,” the boss commented.

FIFA updates the national team’s world rankings following the 2022 World Cup. Despite winning the 2022 World Cup, Argentina saw a justifiable increase in their position in FIFA’s updated men’s world rankings but failed to overtake Brazil for the top slot.

Argentina climbed into second place a day after defeating France in a thrilling World Cup final in Qatar, while rival South American nation Brazil remained in first place despite Selecao’s elimination from the tournament in the quarterfinals. World Cup finalist France moved up one place to third.

Argentina or France would’ve usurped Brazil had Sunday’s finale been decided within the allotted 120 minutes of playing time.

But since shootout victories are worth fewer points than a regulation win, according to FIFA’s calculation, Brazil’s place atop the rankings was assured when extra time was over at Lusail Stadium in Doha.

While Argentina won four games in regulation and two on penalties after losing its opening match to Saudi Arabia, Brazil won three matches in Qatar before losing to Croatia on penalties.

While all was going on, the United States moved up three spots to 13th place, passing Mexico as the highest-ranked CONCACAF country. While Canada lost the most ground, falling 12 spots to 53rd, Mexico is rated 15th.

Following an unexpected run to the World Cup semifinals, Morocco shot up the rankings. The Atlas Lions are now the highest-ranked team in Africa after moving up 11 spots to place 11. Following exceeding expectations in Qatar, Australia and Cameroon also experienced double-digit increases, moving up to positions 27 and 33, respectively.

Belgium, however, dropped two spots from second to fourth after failing to advance through the group stage. The Red Devils are in front of sixth-placed Netherlands and fifth-placed England.

Former Chelsea player Didier Drogba believes France has a key “advantage” over Argentina ahead of the World Cup final in Qatar.

On Sunday, France will take on Argentina at the Lusail Stadium in an effort to retain the World Cup title for the first time in 60 years.

The team led Group D and defeated Poland, England, and Morocco to advance to the knockout rounds under Didier Deschamps.

Argentina won Group C despite an unexpected loss to Saudi Arabia in the opening match and defeated Australia, Netherlands, and Croatia on their way to a sixth World Cup final.

In Lionel Messi’s final World Cup, Argentina will try to win the trophy a third time, while France will try to become just the third team to successfully defend the title.

With eleven members of France’s 2018 team and World Cup-winning manager Deschamps participating in Qatar, Drogba believes that France has an “edge” over Argentina due to their previous experience of not just reaching but also winning the final.

‘France do have the advantage of being in the final and winning it four years ago,’ the former Chelsea and Ivory Coast striker told BBC Sport.

‘You know how to handle the pressure, you’ve been there, but they have new players and it will be new for them.

‘It might be the first time some of them have played against Lionel Messi as well. The pressure will be there. This France team are very, very competitive, especially with Didier Deschamps as their manager. They want to win it back-to-back.

‘Argentina will know that the French team don’t like to receive a lot of knocks. Argentina are really aggressive and they won’t let Kylian Mbappe face the game.

‘They will try and block him because they know he is the main man. It is going to be difficult for them to handle Tchouameni, Griezmann and even Dembele.

‘We don’t talk about Dembele I think he has been helping Jules Kounde a lot. He has been working really hard.’

It has been a magnificent FIFA World Cup in Qatar in 2022, with some surprising outcomes. There are just four nations left in the competition as the semifinal round is set to progress to the final stage.

Out of the four countries left in the competition, France, Croatia, Argentina, and last but not least, Morocco, the first and only African nation to ever break the record and make it to the world cup semifinal.

The nations that will play in the 2022 World Cup semifinals are already known. For one of the remaining four spots, Argentina and Croatia will face off, while France and Morocco square off.

Fans and football lovers have anticipated watching the Qatar World Cup semifinal match because it features a number of star players to watch out for, including Messi’s faceoff with Modric and Mbappe versus his PSG teammate Hakimi.

Much has been said about Messi and Ronaldo during their final World Cup run, but now that Ronaldo and his country have been eliminated from the tournament, Messi and Argentina are considered favourites to win the tournament, despite a disappointing World Cup group stage performance.

• Argentina will face Croatia in the first 2022 FIFA World Cup semifinal game:

Argentina will face Croatia in a World Cup semi-final on Tuesday evening, matching the competition’s previous two silver medalists against each other.

Two football heavyweights, Argentina and Croatia, will face off in the first semifinal of the FIFA World Cup in Qatar in 2022. So far, their separate competitions have been fantastic and thrilling.

Due to the highly rated players competing for the opportunity to play in the tournament, it is challenging to tell which country has the upper hand because there are strengths on both sides.

The last time they met was in the group stage of the 2018 World Cup. Croatia defeated Argentina with three goals. Croatia is undoubtedly catching everyone off guard, just as at the last World Cup.

They defeated Brazil in penalty shootouts and will now face a difficult test against Argentina on their way to success. However, Argentina is ready after defeating the Netherlands in a challenging match.

The game between the two teams will be quite unique and peculiar, but based on the current state of affairs, The Albiceleste will have the best opportunity to exact revenge on the European underdogs and move on to the national title game. On December 14, at Lusail Stadium, the game will begin at 8 p.m. Nigerian time.

The defending World Cup champions France are one of the favourites to defeat Morocco in the second semi-final on Wednesday, but they will have to perform at their peak.

When these two countries clash on Wednesday night at Al Bayt Stadium, they will both be ready to break through the last World Cup obstacle.

The first African and Arab team to do so is Morocco, who are participating in the semifinals for the first time ever. Les Bleus are the defending champions after winning in Russia in 2018 and will be hoping to hold onto the title.

France raced to the semi-finals and defied rumours of conflict, outlasting a spirited England and putting on a thundering performance in all of their matches. France is on the verge of breaking a record if they make the finals, and the country will attempt to defend the World Cup with players in their prime.

This Moroccan team has been unstoppable throughout the competition, defeating Belgium, Spain, and Portugal. As they prepare to play France, they are one victory away from making history. with all of the participants relying on one another and making a valiant attempt.

However, the match between the two countries will be challenging since, despite France’s strong forward line and love of scoring, the Moroccan team is still the only one in the competition without a loss after having only had one goal scored against them.

On December 15, at Al Bayt Stadium, the game will begin at 8 p.m. Nigerian time.

• Players To Watch at the 2022 FIFA World Cup in the Semi-Final.

Lionel Messi:

In 170 games, the captain of Argentina has scored an amazing 95 goals. At the World Cup 2022, Lionel Messi has already netted four goals.

He is attempting to commit no errors after scoring a penalty against the Netherlands that was calm and collected. As they both meet each other in the semifinals, Lionel Messi is Croatia’s biggest obstacle.

Luka Modric:

In terms of experience and technique, Luka Modric is by far the midfielder who is most exceptional. He consistently threatens the other team on the field by creating chances and winning balls. In the 2018 World Cup, Modric earned the Golden Ball for his efforts, and he is continuing to lead his side this year. He has outstanding passing and pushing skills.

Kylian Mbappe:

For a country hoping to win back-to-back World Cup titles for the first time in its history, Kylian Mbappe has made it his mission to be the top goal threat.

Mbappe is now leading the competition for the Golden Boot going into the last four games with five goals scored. He will be looking to improve upon a rather underwhelming showing in the quarterfinal matchup with England in order to propel his nation into the final.

Achraf Hakimi:

Achraf Hakimi, a Moroccan player who plays for Paris Saint-Germain, was the game’s hero against Spain after landing the game-winning penalty in the shootout.

In the semi-finals, where he will likely be tasked with stopping PSG teammate Mbappe, Hakimi will be one to watch. He is quick, strong, and equally dangerous on offence as he is reliable in defence.

Olivier Giroud:

Oliver Giroud, France’s all-time leading scorer with four goals in Qatar after his game-winning goal against England, will be standing alongside Mbappe in the team.

At 36 years old, Giroud’s final World Cup appearance for France is likely this one, and he’ll want to depart the international stage with another World Cup trophy in addition to the one he won in Russia four years ago.

Hakim Ziyech:

Ziyech has changed into a new player for Morocco, with an excellent game setup and as Hakimi’s main partner. They both occupy the same wing and help with ball movement. In order to help Hakimi contain Mbappe’s threat, Ziyech will need to play against a France team that excels at transition.

In addition, The outcome of this game will depend solely on technical prowess, positional awareness, and counterplay. Each of the four nations is aware of and possesses players that are capable of breaking through any wall.

In a World Cup full of surprises, upsets, and everything else, Croatia defeated Brazil to eliminate them from the competition.

England’s chances of winning the tournament were destroyed when they were eliminated by France after a hard-fought match, while Argentina overcame Saudi Arabia’s interference and went to the semi-finals by defeating the Netherlands on penalties.

The contest’s important match, which will decide who goes to the finals, is now being prepared for by the players. However, a large number of booked players won’t be able to participate in the following game.

For instance, the Netherlands vs. Argentina match featured the most yellow cards ever handed in a World Cup game with 18.

• FIFA has put in place different regulations, and this is how they operate:

FIFA has dramatically changed the suspension, and those who have received the most yellow cards may not be suspended because all penalties will be lifted following the quarterfinals and new bookings will start.

Players who receive a second yellow card in the quarterfinals will be disqualified from the tournament in accordance with FIFA rules for the 2022 competition. Last but not least, a player who obtains a red card in a quarterfinal game might be benched for the semifinal game.

Ultimately, the yellow card was eliminated following the quarterfinals. Furthermore, only 23 players were issued yellow cards throughout the knockout round, and no England players were already in danger of receiving a knockout stage booking when the game entered its final four quarters.

However, Here is the list of players who will be absent from the semifinal game due to suspension or doubt due to injury.

Only three players will be suspended, and neither France nor Croatia will have any players suspended for their matchup in the semifinals.

• Argentina

Marcos Acuna (suspended)

Gonzalo Montiel (suspended)

Alejandro ‘Papu’ Gomez (Doubt – ankle injury)

• Morocco
