Jamal Musiala gets a new shirt number at Bayern following Leroy Sane's departure
Jamal Musiala has got a new shirt number at Bayern Munich after Leroy Sane departed from the club. He has received an iconic number 10 jersey and from next season, he'll be an important player of the club.
Bayern Munich star Jamal Musiala has officially been handed the iconic No. 10 jersey following the departure of Leroy Sané from the club. The change marks a significant moment in Musiala's career as he continues to rise as one of the most important players in the Bavarian squad.
Previously donning the No. 42, the 21-year-old attacking midfielder will now wear a shirt number historically associated with club legends such as Arjen Robben and Philippe Coutinho. The No. 10 carries high expectations, often reserved for a team's creative engine — a role Musiala is increasingly expected to fulfill.
Musiala has already proven his worth with consistent performances in recent seasons, showcasing his dribbling, vision, and goal-scoring ability. As Bayern look to reclaim their dominance in the Bundesliga and Europe, the German international is set to be a central figure in the team's plans.

Guirassy scores twice and Dortmund advances at Club World Cup with 2-1 win over feisty Monterrey
Associated Press ATLANTA (AP) — Serhou Guirassy scored a pair of first-half goals, both assisted by Karim Adeyemi, and Borussia Dortmund held off Monterrey 2-1 Tuesday night in the final round of 16 game at the Club World Cup. Guirassy drove a shot just inside the left post in the 14th minute, then sent another past keeper Esteban Andrada in the 24th when left unmarked from 15 yards at the top of the penalty area. Both times, it was Adeyemi delivering the pass that set up Guirassy, a native of France who plays for Guinea's national team. The 29-year-old striker has three goals in four tournament games and 37 across all competitions in his first season with Dortmund. Dortmund will face Real Madrid on Saturday at East Rutherford, New Jersey. The Spanish power advanced with a 1-0 victory over Italy's Juventus in an afternoon match. Jobe Bellingham received a yellow card in the 28th minute and will miss the match against Real – and his brother, former Dortmund star Jude Bellingham — because of yellow card accumulation. Rayados, cheered by a large contingent of flag-waving supporters in Atlanta, bounced back from the sluggish start to make a game of it. Less than three minutes into second half, a cross to the far post deflected off the head of a Dortmund defender before Erick Aguirre headed it back across the net to German Berterame, who headed it in to cut the deficit to a single goal. Using their speed to attack Dortmund vertically, Monterrey dominated the second half and had several chances to level the score. But the German team held on, despite the Mexican squad holding a 59% edge in possession and a 7-3 advantage in shots on goal. The late game drew a crowd of 31,442 at cavernous Mercedes-Benz Stadium, where the upper deck wasn't needed. But the sweltering U.S. heat wasn't an issue with the roof closed in Atlanta. American Gio Reyna did not play for the third time in four games at the Club World Cup, another sign that his tenure with Dortmund could be winding down. Key moment Dortmund started strongly, thanks to a nifty flick from Adeyemi at the top of the area that set up Guirassy's opening goal. Takeaways Dortmund's victory means five of the eight clubs in the quarterfinals are from Europe. Monterrey was the last club left from North America. ___ AP soccer:

Guirassy double as Dortmund down Monterrey to reach Club World Cup quarters
Borussia Dortmund's Guinean forward Serhou Guirassy celebrates scoring his team's first goal in the hard-fought win over Monterrey (Franck FIFE) Serhou Guirassy continued his superb form to fire Borussia Dortmund to a 2-1 win over Sergio Ramos's Monterrey and into the Club World Cup quarter-finals on Monday. The striker scored twice in the first half and Bundesliga powerhouses Dortmund then held off the Mexican side in a battling second after German Berterame's quick strike. Advertisement Former Real Madrid great Ramos had a golden chance to equalise at the end but headed wide, meaning it is Dortmund who go on to face the Spanish giants in the last eight after they beat Juventus earlier on. After grinding through several games in the blazing afternoon sun during the group stage, Dortmund were grateful to be at the air-conditioned Mercedes-Benz Stadium and played at a faster pace in Atlanta. Monterrey coach Domenec Torrent warned his side they had to defend diligently to have a hope of beating Dortmund, but the Germans picked the locks too easily to open the scoring in the 14th minute. Guirassy exchanged quick passes with Karim Adeyemi on the edge of the box to confuse defender Jorge Rodríguez, and then tucked a slick finish home at the near post. Advertisement The 29-year-old Guinea international, who finished as joint-top scorer in the UEFA Champions League this season, netted his second 10 minutes later. Jesus Corona came close to levelling by accident in between, but his cross bounced back off the post. Guirassy climbed to 37 goals for the season across all competitions as he was once more teed up by the darting Adeyemi, stroking home from the edge of the box. Dortmund coach Niko Kovac anticipated Monterrey playing with aggression but his side put in the harder tackles in the first half and Jobe Bellingham was booked for needlessly flying in on Colombian playmaker Nelson Deossa. Advertisement It means he will not be able to face his older brother Jude Bellingham in the quarter-final showdown against Real. Guirassy let Monterrey off the hook when he might have netted a third and Adeyemi's touch was loose when he got in behind. - Ramos comes close - Monterrey, who earned an impressive draw against Inter Milan in the group phase, were dangerous going forward but Dortmund goalkeeper Gregor Kobel stayed alert to keep Corona at bay before the break. The Swiss stopper could do nothing about Berterame heading home from close range early in the second half as Monterrey came out forcefully. The forward, who netted twice against Urawa Red Diamonds in his team's last group match, reacted quickest to a rebound which sent the ball looping his way. Advertisement Kobel made another solid save to thwart former Porto star Corona, who appealed in vain for a penalty when he felt he had been shoved over from behind by the hulking Niklas Suele as he ran through. Berterame did beat Kobel with a drilled effort into the far corner but the goal was ruled out for offside against the Mexico international, with the noisier portion of the 31,000 attending left groaning. Dortmund were far quieter in attack in the second half and Guirassy snatched at another chance to complete a hat-trick on a rare forray forward as Monterrey fans chanted "yes we can". As the clock ticked down Torrent threw Ramos up front, desperate for some last-gasp magic from the 39-year-old. Advertisement Sporting the number 93 on his back, harking back to his famous 2014 Champions League final goal for Real Madrid to deny rivals Atletico, the Spaniard came inches away with a header in stoppage time which dropped agonisingly wide. rbs/as

WNBA Player Sends Clear Message After Temporary Leave
WNBA Player Sends Clear Message After Temporary Leave originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Dallas Wings' center duo of Teaira McCowan and Luisa Geiselsoder temporarily stepped away to compete at the FIBA Women's EuroBasket from June 18–29, suiting up for Turkey and Germany, respectively. Advertisement While those two were abroad, the Wings sought short‑term help, signing Kaila Charles and Haley Jones to hardship contracts on June 17 to address the frontcourt gap. Just in time for their Thursday matchup against the Phoenix Mercury, Dallas officially reinstated McCowan and Geiselsoder to the active roster. Then, the Wings made a splash by trading forward NaLyssa Smith to the Las Vegas Aces for a 2027 first‑round pick, while waiving Charles to clear roster space. On Tuesday, fresh off her return from Europe, McCowan addressed the ever‑shifting roster, saying, "At the end of the day, it is a business. I mean, you hate to see them go, and you love to see people come, but you just have to know that you can't relax... It's a business at the end of the day." Dallas entered the 2025 season with bold ambitions. Advertisement In the offseason, GM Curt Miller sent All-WNBA forward Satou Sabally, Kalani Brown and others in multi-team deals to bring in Smith and DiJonai Carrington, as well as the rights to Mikiah Herbert Harrigan and a top‐12 draft pick.

In April, they drafted Paige Bueckers No. 1 overall, who currently leads the team in scoring (18.4 points per game), assists (5.8 assists per game) and steals (1.8 steals per game). As the Wings prepare for their upcoming game against the Mercury, they will lean on McCowan's steadying presence in the paint—along with contributions from a reshuffled roster—to build on their efforts after a 5-13 start to the season.
