Calciomercato.com reports that Simone Inzaghi is facing growing pressure at Al-Hilal after supporters booed him and called for his dismissal following a 2-0 home defeat to Neom in the Saudi Pro League. The loss ended the club’s 47-match unbeaten run and marked Inzaghi’s first league defeat since taking charge, intensifying criticism of both his results and his handling of the squad. Fans have also questioned the decision to part with Karim Benzema, while Al-Hilal have invested almost €200 million in Gabriel Martinelli, Crysencio Summerville and Ollie Watkins. The report says Inzaghi could be dismissed if the team finishes the season without a trophy, despite being tied to the Saudi club on a contract worth €25 million net per season.
Update (Sky Sports – Transfer Centre): Sky Sports reports that Barcelona are not interested in signing Manchester United youngster Gabriel. The claim appears in the outlet’s roundup of Friday’s transfer rumours.
