VIGO, Spain — Madonna has answered the call of a Spanish soccer club that was seeking a long-lost jersey worn by the pop icon more than three decades ago. Lost and found: Madonna has the Spanish soccer jersey Celta Vigo was searching for Madonna replied Saturday to a plea for information regarding the whereabouts of the shirt from Spanish soccer club Celta Vigo with a post on X saying that she still possessed the garment. “This shirt is hanging in my archives!

Club president Marián Mouriño Terrazo wrote: “Over time we came to better understand what you stood for back then: questioning established norms and standing up to those who try to tell you what you can or cannot do.

German clubs set up their own women’s league grouping in split with soccer federation

Published by Parlour News

Published on: Dec 05, 2025 01:32 am IST In a surprise announcement, the 14 clubs in the women’s Bundesliga said they would go ahead with founding an association for “ensuring the modern, professional and sustainable development of the Women’s Bundesliga and strengthening the commercial potential of professional women’s football.” They’re doing it without the federation, known as the DFB, which currently runs the league. It comes despite long-running talks that had aimed to create a joint venture between the DFB and the clubs. Last month, the DFB said it would invest around 100 million euros in the league over eight years. Club officials accused the DFB of trying to go back on already agreed-on points. “It was all the more surprising for us clubs that the cornerstones negotiated are now being called into question — even though the clubs will be investing significantly more in the Women’s Bundesliga in comparison,” Bayern Munich chief executive Jan-Christian Dreesen said in a statement. The clubs are moving ahead without the DFB “to avoid wasting any more time,” Dreesen …

The Indian women’s football team, currently preparing for the AFC Women’s Asian Cup 2026 qualifiers, had a special visitor in the form of Sunil Chhetri to boost their morale. Currently playing for the Indian men’s football team after reversing his decision to retire from international football, Sunil Chhetri gave a rousing speech to the Blue Tigresses. In the sattar-minute-esque speech, Chhetri urged the players to “go crazy” in their pursuit to keep playing football at the top level. “Kal main athra saal ka tha (Yesterday, I was 18 years old!)

Gary Lineker, the former England soccer player who became a leading sports broadcaster on the BBC, has “apologized unreservedly” for reposting an Instagram story about Zionism which featured a picture of a rat. In a statement Wednesday, Lineker, 64, said he reposted material which he has since subsequently learned contained “offensive references,” adding that he withdrew the post as soon as he became aware of the issue. “I take full responsibility for this mistake,” said Lineker. “I would never knowingly share anything antisemitic. It goes against everything I believe in.” Lineker came under criticism on Tuesday after he shared a post from the group, Palestine Lobby, illustrated with a picture of a rat, titled: “Zionism explained in two minutes.” Rats, linked to disease and dirt, have been used to represent Jews in antisemitic propaganda throughout history, including by the Nazis in 1930s Germany.
