The most jaw‑dropping moment came when Manchester City stumbled out of the tournament after a 4‑3 thriller with Al Hilal. Haaland started but left early from fatigue, while Rodri’s injury added extra drama for Pep Guardiola’s side.
Across the same weekend, Real Madrid hit a snag in their pursuit of defender Álvaro Carreras. Benfica won’t budge below €48 million, so the Spaniards will have to wait until after the Club World Cup to resume talks.
Meanwhile, Chelsea’s loan market got tangled as they tried to lock in Mamadou Sarr from Strasbourg. FIFA rules forced them to recall a player, showing how transfer timing can clash with tournament schedules.
The next round promises more fireworks as Asian and African clubs gear up for the quarter‑finals. Expect tight games, last‑minute goals and perhaps another big upset that reshapes the bracket.
Fans should also watch the transfer ripple effects. Alexander Isak’s stalled move to Liverpool and Anthony Elanga’s Wolves approach illustrate how Club World Cup performances can boost a player’s market value overnight.
