Serie A : AS Roma fires Jose Mourinho after falling to AC Milan
"We'd like to thank Jose on behalf of everyone at AS Roma for his dedication and efforts since joining the club," said Dan and Ryan Friedkin.
Premier League giants Manchester United have revealed their 25-man squad for the upcoming UEFA Champions League season, with Marcus Rashford the notable absentee.
United fans needn’t be worried, however, because Rashford can be registered on the ‘B’ list of players who were born after 1 January 1997 and have been eligible to play for the club for more than two years.
Therefore, the 20-year-old striker can play in the Red Devils’group games, as can other young players who meet the criteria, despite not being in the squad published on Tuesday.
