Auxerre miss out on Burnley's Han-Noah Massengo
According to a report from L'Équipe, FC Augsburg are set to complete the transfer of Han-Noah Massengo (24) from Burnley FC on a permanent transfer, with the official announcement imminent. The Frenchman will sign a five-year contract with the Bundesliga side, after they forked out a little over €3m. However, for a while, it seemed as if AJ Auxerre would be the club to land the midfielder. Massengo had spent the past six months on loan with the Ligue 1 side (his second spell at the club, having also been loaned out in 2023 when he was on the books with Bristol City). Advertisement However, the club were unsuccessful in negotiating a reduction in Burnley's €3m asking price. A fan favourite in the Burgundy region and highly valued by manager Christophe Pelissier, Massengo's presence will be missed as Auxerre look to maintain their Ligue 1 status for a second season in a row.

Arne Engels gets honest over Celtic as 3 things stand out for record transfer as chapter one of journey comes to a close
Brendan Rodgers paid out the big bucks to land the Belgian as he brings reflects on his first campaign in the hoops Arne Engels has offered a honest assessment of his first year at Celtic. Brendan Rodgers shelled out last summer to land the Belgian for a club record fee from FC Augsburg on a four-year deal. He played a key role in the Hoops' double success as he lifted the Premiership and League Cup after hopes of a first season clean sweep were ended at Hampden by Aberdeen in the Scottish Cup Final and season finale. The campaign has also offered exposure in the Champions League and on the international scene after turning out for Belgium. It's not all been plain sailing for the midfielder, who has picked out three key things from his first season in Scotland. Sharing a video montage of some of his debut campaign highlights to his Instagram account, he wrote: "My first season at Celtic has been a journey filled with highs, lessons, and memories for life. "Whether we were at Paradise or away from home, I felt your energy every time we stepped on the pitch. "Thank you fans, see you all soon." Engels and his Parkhead team-mates will be aiming to complete the Treble next season and make another splash at Europe's top table. Rangers have entered a new era under the 49ers Enterprises following their takeover and Russell Martin is now in charge. The Hoops face a busy pre-season schedule including trips to Cork, Lisbon, Faro and Lake Como. They will also play games on home soil as they prepare for a return to domestic and Champions League action. Rodgers and his troops face a crucial qualifier in order to rubberstamp their ticket to the big time this time around. In previous campaigns they've enjoyed the luxury of direct entry, but they now face one hurdle to join Europe's heavyweights.

Former Germany striker Sandro Wagner gets his first Bundesliga coaching job at Augsburg
Sandro Wagner, new coach of FC Augsburg, stands in front of the FC Augsburg office, Wednesday, May 28, 2025. (Karl-Josef Hildenbrand/dpa via AP) AUGSBURG, Germany (AP) — The former Germany and Bayern Munich forward Sandro Wagner landed his first top-tier coaching job Wednesday as he took over at Augsburg. Wagner has been working as assistant to Germany coach Julian Nagelsmann and will take charge of an Augsburg team which finished 12th in the 18-team Bundesliga this season. Advertisement Augsburg said the 37-year-old Wagner had signed a three-year contract. His only previous job as a head coach was with Unterhaching in the fourth division, where he achieved promotion but left in 2023 to join the national under-20 team. The German soccer federation previously said Wagner would remain an assistant on the national team until after next month's Nations League final four. Augsburg's statement Wednesday didn't clarify when he would start work. Wagner's appointment comes five days after Augsburg's management fired coach Jess Thorup and sporting director Marinko Jurendić, arguing that the team needed a change of leadership to continue its development. Augsburg was in contention to qualify for European competition for much of the season but its form dipped and it ended the Bundesliga campaign with four straight losses. Leipzig, Wolfsburg, Werder Bremen and promoted Cologne are also looking for new coaches ahead of next season. ___ AP soccer:
