Ronaldo ‘Could Return To Real Madrid
Real Madrid are reportedly considering making an attempt to re-sign Christiano Ronaldo summer, with the attacker’s future at Manchester Unite far from secure.
The 37-year-old has been in impressive scoring form for the Red Devils this term, finding the back of the net on 23 occasions in 36 appearances, in addition to contributing three assists.
Ronaldo has 17 Premier League goals to his name this term, meanwhile, despite his team’s struggles for much of the campaign.
The Portugal international has a contract at Old Trafford until June 2023, with the option of a further year, but there remains widespread speculation surrounding his future, with Erik ten Hag’s plans for the attacker unclear.
Ten Hag is believed to be keen to sign a couple of forwards this summer, with Edinson Cavani on his way out, and the futures of Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial up in the air.

Kukkiwon President Hails Popoola’s Impact on Nigerian Taekwondo, NTF Boss Celebrates One Year of Progress
The President of the Taekwondo Federation of Nigeria, Grand Master Tayo Popoola has received a letter of commendation from the president of Kukkiwon, Yun Ung- Suk, for her outstanding contribution to the development of the sport.
Grand Master Popoola was hailed for her consistent drive improving the game within a short time of her stewardship in the NTF and the dissemination of Taekwondo activities in Nigeria to the global space.
The commendation letter dated October 25, 2026, was personally signed by Kukkiwon President, Ung-Suk.
Popoola said the commendation came to her as a pleasant surprise.
“I did not see that coming but It is a good one not only for me but the entire federation. I did not do it alone and it is also a challenge to do much more in the days, weeks and months ahead. I thank all the board members and I am optimistic that we will do more for the athletes,” Popoola said.
Incidentally, it is just about one year in office for Grand Master Popoola who has recorded a string of successes in the federation including the National Open Trials in Abeokuta, the Africa Taekwondo Championship 2026 in Bamako Mali where Nigeria won several Medals, the first ever Micheal Opeyemi Bamidele National Taekwondo Championship which took place last month in Lagos and the recently held Korean Ambassador Cup in Abuja which also had in attendance the World Kukkiwon Demonstration team.
The demonstration team dazzled fans in Abuja with spectacular display only last weekend just as the para-athletes in taekwondo were duly classified by experts from the world body in preparation for the Los Angeles Olympics 2028.
“I want to thank the National Sports Commission for the support given to me and the entire NTF. Things can only get better,” Popoola stressed.
