How to watch Fluminense vs Al Hilal for FREE: TV channel and live stream for Club World Cup today
Fluminense and Al Hilal will compete for a spot in the Club World Cup semi-finals on this evening. The Brazilian outfit, captained by Thiago Silva, downed Champions League finalists Inter Milan by two goals to nil on Monday night, before the Saudi Pro League side toppled reigning champions Manchester City in a seven-goal blockbuster. It means there will no reunion of the Serie A giants with former manager Simone Inzaghi, who left the Italian club last month by mutual consent and promptly took the helm at Al-Hilal. His Saudia Arabia-based group boast several players who once plied their trade in Europe's top leagues including Yassine Bounou, Joao Cancelo, Kalidou Koulibaly, Ruben Neves and Sergej Milinkovic-Savic. Inzaghi has gotten off to a bright start in his new role, drawing with Real Madrid in the opening match of the group stage and remaining unbeaten to date, including this week's triumph over City - who, despite a relatively lacklustre 2024-25 season, were among the favourites to at least reach the latter stages of this tournament in the United States, if not defend their crown. As they prepare to go head to head for the first time, both teams in this tie will feel they have earned their spots in this Club World Cup quarter-final, with Fluminense also still unbeaten so far in this tournament including their opening round draw against fellow quarter-finalists Borussia Dortmund. Whoever wins at Orlando's Camping World Stadium will progress to the semi-finals to face the victor from Chelsea's clash with Palmeiras.

Arsenal cult hero and Chelsea legend's sons part of 16-man squad handed new deals at Stamford Bridge
CHELSEA have handed new deals to 16 players, including the sons of a club legend and an Arsenal cult hero. The academy stars will all form part of Chelsea's U18s squad next season under gaffer Hassan Sulaiman. 5 5 5 And there is a familiar face among the group after Isago Silv a was given a fresh contract. The Brazilian is the son of Chelsea hero and Champions League winner Thiago Silva. He has been part of the Stamford Bridge set-up for several years now and operates at centre-back, just like his old man. After turning 16, club chiefs were eager to sign Isago to an academy scholarship deal. And joining him in west London is the son of a former rival. Mathis Eboue agreed a deal to join Chelsea from Watford in January. He has finally arrived at the club after also turning 16. And the attacker is the offspring of none other than Arsenal icon Emmanuel Eboue. Mathis isn't the only new face at Stamford Bridge today though. Chris Atherton, the youngster-ever senior debutant in UK football history at 13, has completed a move from Glenavon in Northern Ireland. 5 5 The rest of the new deals have been handed to youngsters already embedded in the Chelsea set-up like Isago. Toby Bell, Jeremiah Berkeley-Agyepong, Freddy Bernal, Calvin Diakite, Chizaram Ezenwata, Jacob Hall, Charlie Holland, Ryan Kavuma-McQueen, Ibrahim Rabbaj, Lewi Richards, Joel Philbert and Dante Waite have been tied down to contracts. While there is also a deal for midfielder Reggie Walsh, who made two appearances in Chelsea's victorious Conference League campaign – including a start in the semis against Swedish side Djurgarden.
