Luis Muriel has agreed to sign for Orlando City in the MLS, ending his time at Atalanta. The striker will leave for a fee of around €2 million, and with the documents signed, he will soon travel to the USA to complete the transfer by going through the medical tests.
This season, he wasn’t as effective for La Dea as he was before, scoring only two goals and providing one assist in 18 Serie A appearances. In the Europa League, he scored four goals in five appearances, albeit only playing for 50% of the minutes available in the group stage.

The forward signed for Atalanta in 2019 from Sevilla, scoring 68 goals from 184 games across all competitions. For the Basque side, he scored only 13 goals in 65 games. And overall, he has scored 103 goals in 328 games.
Moreover, he has scored eight goals in 45 games for the Colombian national team, embarking on a rather successful career at both club and country level.
With Luis Muriel, Orlando City will receive an experienced and highly skilled striker in the coming days. His time at the highest level will allow Orlando to receive a solid target man who has an eye for the goal, and will be able to convert with the chances he gets in the game.
Hansi Flick is open to becoming the head coach of Barcelona at the end of the season, when Xavi Hernandez is set to leave. The former Germany national team boss has been out of a job after his dismissal in 2023, and has been linked with a number of clubs since then. Barcelona have been one of those clubs, and a move could take place when Xavi eventually leaves.
Flick rose to prominence after his remarkable season with Bayern Munich, winning them the sextuple, including the Bundesliga title, DFB Pokal and the Champions League in 2020.

The Spanish side is still in the early stages of recruiting a new manager. But, the positive sign from a manager like Hansi Flick is great news, with the offer almost set to be accepted if it comes.
The club is expected to proceed with caution in their attempts to replace Xavi after his shocking announcement a few weeks ago. The Spaniard was able to guide his club to the LaLiga title in 2023, but this year has been very challenging for them, especially considering the number of injuries in the first team.
Depending on youth players and a limited first team budget, Xavi has been subject to a number of challenges. But the critics have still been vocal about the shortcomings of the former midfielder in his role.
While Hansi Flick’s time with Germany proved to be disappointing, his club stint with Bayern still shows a lot of promise for success. And with his attack-minded playing style, he could be a great addition to the Barcelona squad for the coming season.
UEFA President Aleksander Ceferin has announced that he will not be running for another term in 2027. He revealed that he made the decision six months ago, and only told a select few.
The Slovenian lawyer has been in charge since 2016, replacing Michel Platini in the middle of his term. The English FA was the only party that opposed a UEFA statute that would have allowed Ceferin to run for another term. However, he revealed that he wanted to see how people would react to him passing the statute before revealing that he would not be availing the opportunity.
UEFA President Aleksander Ceferin reveals he will not run in 2027
“I have met many great people in football and I will meet more,” Aleksander Ceferin said. “Be sure that [the] majority of people in football are not like some clowns. So I have decided, let’s say around six months ago, that I’m not planning to run in 2027 any more.
“The reason is that after some time every organisation [needs] fresh blood but mainly because I was away from my family for seven years now, and I will be away from them for three more until 2027. My family knew it first.”
“I’m tired of Covid, I’m tired of two wars [and] the nonsense projects of the so-called Super League,” he said. “I’m also tired of self-proclaimed moral authorities who are moral just until it comes to their personal interests.”
The standard 12-year term rule will remain applicable for Ceferin. Moreover, his former chief of football Zvonimir Boban, who resigned from his post three weeks ago, was once his trusted ally. And while he didn’t name Boban, he did acknowledge his behaviour in his speech.

Google’s “Gemini,” the AI language model that underpins the company’s next-generation chatbot, will now go by that moniker rather than “Bard.” Additionally, the company has announced the launch of this new chatbot utility.
Google renames its AI chatbot Bard as Gemini

The decision was made as Google’s parent company Alphabet promotes Gemini, which is akin to Microsoft’s Copilot brand, as the primary brand for all of its current and future AI initiatives.
The Gemini family of AI models, which Alphabet originally unveiled, is anticipated to drive the development of AI technology in the future. This is the company’s first AI model following the combination of its two AI research divisions, DeepMind and Google Brain, into Google DeepMind, which is run by Demis Hassabis, CEO of DeepMind.
Gemini Advanced Details

Google is developing “Gemini Advanced,” a tool for those looking for more sophisticated features. Gemini Ultra 1.0, the company’s most potent AI model, is available to users of this subscription tier, which costs $19.99 a month.
Among the “highly complex tasks” that Gemini Advanced claims to handle include coding, logical reasoning, and creative teamwork. Along with these, it may provide detailed data analysis, help with content creation, and customized learning experiences.
In addition to external red-teaming and model development based on user feedback, Google highlights the safety and trust-building procedures implemented prior to the release of this premium tier.
Google’s Gemini mobile app details for Android

The majority of individuals will probably find the new option through Gemini’s mobile apps. For Android users, the updated app has the ability to set Gemini as your default assistant. This means that Gemini will take the place of Google Assistant as the app that launches when you say “Hey Google” or press and hold the home button.
The remaining Gemini adjustments are primarily related to branding. Google is renaming its chatbot Bard, but other than that, it will continue to function as it did before. Similarly, all of the AI elements found in Google Workspace programs, including as Gmail and Docs—which were once known as “Duet AI” but are now also referred to as Gemini—will continue to function as they did before.
For the past six years, Alexa has seamlessly integrated into Indian households, simplifying daily tasks and elevating the concept of smart homes. Devices such as Echo smart speakers and the Fire TV Stick have been embraced across 99% of pin codes in India, resonating equally with residents of metro and non-metro cities. The widespread adoption of Alexa signifies its pivotal role in millions of users’ lives nationwide.
200% increase in smart home devices connected to Alexa in last three years, reports Amazon
In collaboration with Indian brands, Amazon has expanded the array of compatible smart home appliances that sync effortlessly with Alexa, bolstering the smart home ecosystem in the country. Notably, approximately 80% of smart home users initiated their journey by acquiring an Echo smart speaker bundled with a smart bulb. This concerted effort, coupled with heightened customer awareness, has yielded a staggering 200% surge in smart home devices connected to Alexa within the last three years.
Driving the Future of Smart Living in India
The significant upsurge in connected devices has also sparked a 100% increase in requests to Alexa for regulating compatible smart home appliances like lights, plugs, fans, TVs, security cameras, ACs, water heaters, and air purifiers. Users can seamlessly communicate with Alexa in English, Hindi, or Hinglish, issuing commands such as “Alexa, geyser चला दो,” “Alexa, turn off AC after 15 minutes,” or “Alexa, hall की lights dim कर दो.” Notably, controlling lights stands out as one of the most prevalent smart home requests. Furthermore, there has been a remarkable 37% surge in the usage of Alexa for managing smart fans and ACs, marking the highest increase among all smart home appliances over the past year.
Parag Gupta, Director and Country Manager at Amazon Devices, India, remarked, “Since we launched Alexa and Echo smart speakers in India, the smart home sector has evolved significantly, and voice technology has played a massive role in this. Customers can easily set up a smart home by getting a compatible smart bulb and instantly control with Alexa, or get a smart plug to automate existing appliances. It’s clear that more people are seeing how setting up a smart home is not as complex as they had imagined. We’re encouraged by this growing trend and are excited to continue innovating on behalf of our customers.”
Localized Innovation and Diverse Selection
Smart home brands in India have been at the forefront of innovation, introducing locally relevant smart devices such as tube lights, ceiling fans, IR blasters, and smart strips tailored to Indian home environments. Customers now have access to thousands of Alexa-compatible smart home appliances, with the selection expanding by 12% in the last year, featuring new products from renowned brands like Xiaomi, OnePlus, Hindware, and Atomberg. Setting up a smart home powered by Alexa has become more accessible than ever before.
Enriching the Smart Home Experience
To further enhance the utility of smart home features for customers, Amazon has introduced several initiatives:
Redesigned Alexa app: The revamped Alexa app places smart home control at the forefront, enabling customers to effortlessly access their most-used devices and features within one to two taps. Features such as ‘Favourites,’ a ‘Home Shortcuts Bar,’ a streamlined ‘Activity’ section, and enhanced search controls optimize the app for seamless user interaction.
Alexa Connect Kit smart bulb: Customers can now swiftly set up smart bulbs in their homes. For instance, Wipro launched the first RGBW light bulb in India using the Alexa Connect Kit (ACK), supporting Amazon’s Frustration-Free Setup to simplify the device setup experience with Alexa.
Wake-up Lighting: Customers can simulate a natural sunrise using Alexa’s Wake-up lighting capability, gradually brightening and transitioning from warm to cool lighting to facilitate a gentle wake-up experience.
Timed actions: Alexa customers can employ voice commands to schedule the activation or deactivation of smart home devices at specific times or for predefined durations, enhancing convenience and efficiency.

The clock is ticking!!! The time to stun the world has arrived.
There will be green, blue, black, and orange color options of the upcoming smartphone, according to the teaser that Motorola posted on X (previously Twitter). The color palette indicates that the Moto G04 will be the next Motorola phone, as these are the varieties in which the phone was released.
Moto G04 specifications and features
Though formal specifications for the Indian market are still pending, insider knowledge and rumors indicate that the G04 would ship with a 6.6-inch HD+ resolution display with a refresh rate of 90 Hz. Anticipated specifications for the Moto G04 include a Unisoc T606 processor with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of internal storage.
It is expected that the Moto G04 will have a 16-megapixel rear camera and a 5-megapixel front camera. The 10W rapid charging capability of the 5,000mAh battery should allow the device to operate without any issues.
A side-mounted fingerprint scanner, Bluetooth 5.1 connectivity, Dolby Atmos dual speakers, an IP52 water and dust resistance rating, a 3.5mm audio socket, and an IP52 water and dust resistance certification are among the other anticipated features.
In today’s connected world, technology can be quite alluring, and excitement around Motorola India’s upcoming release of their newest product is only growing. In this market, where affordability and functionality go hand in hand and draw a lot of customers, the Moto G04 might emerge as the surprise victor.
The esteemed role of Barcelona’s manager is revered in the realm of global football. However, stepping into this position amidst the club’s profound financial woes presents a daunting task for Xavi’s eventual replacement.

Joan Laporta, who returned as club president in 2021, has employed innovative tactics, such as leveraging future earnings, to bolster the team’s competitiveness. While these strategies facilitated notable signings like Robert Lewandowski and the retention of rising talents, they also underscored the club’s dependency on short-term fixes.
As the season unfolds, Barcelona finds itself grappling with on-field setbacks, including recent defeats in key competitions. Amidst this backdrop, looming financial constraints are poised to force significant cuts to the wage bill and potentially necessitate the sale of key players to address the club’s staggering debts exceeding €1 billion.

Despite Laporta and his team’s demonstrated ingenuity in navigating financial hurdles, the next manager will likely inherit a squad with diminished resources compared to Xavi’s tenure. This article delves into the impending likelihood of high-profile departures and the ensuing challenges for Barcelona’s next managerial incumbent.
Barcelona’s Legal Battle with Libero: Uncertainties Surrounding Financial Rescue Plans
Recent headlines have stirred anticipation that Barcelona could recoup €40 million from German company Libero Football Finance, potentially providing a much-needed financial boost for Xavi’s squad during the winter transfer window. Last summer, Libero had committed to taking over payments owed to Barcelona from Socios.com and Orpheus Media as part of a ‘SPAC’ initiative aimed at launching a new Barca Media company on NASDAQ by November.
However, doubts arose in October regarding the viability of the Barca Media SPAC plan, valued at $1 billion, as reported by The Athletic. The departure of key figures, including former Chelsea and Manchester United executive Peter Kenyon from Libero’s board, further complicated matters, as the company no longer had the required quorum to make decisions.
Meanwhile, setbacks emerged at Mountain & Co, the Swiss financiers overseeing the SPAC for Barcelona. Glazer Capital’s reduction in its share in the investment vehicle was interpreted by some as a lack of confidence in meeting the April deadline, after which the SPAC must dissolve.

Reports of potential involvement from Key Capital in the SPAC were dismissed by multiple sources, exacerbating uncertainties surrounding the project. The recent tightening of rules by the U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission on SPACs has further hindered efforts to attract new funding, casting doubt on the ambitious $1 billion valuation initially proposed.
While legal action has been initiated against Libero for the alleged non-payment of €40 million, doubts persist regarding its success. With neither Libero nor Mountain & Co offering comment, the future of Barcelona’s financial rescue plans remains uncertain. Should the SPAC be dissolved, the €120 million invested by its backers must be returned, leaving the club with limited resources for transfers or other expenditures.
Unless unforeseen developments arise, the Barca Media ‘lever’ that facilitated the club’s transfer activities last summer appears unlikely to provide significant assistance in the future.
La Liga Salary Cuts and Barcelona’s Financial Struggles: Impacts of the ‘Levers’ Policy
Despite the challenges posed by La Liga’s salary limit reductions and restrictions on leveraging future earnings, Barcelona’s financial struggles persist. The significant decrease in the club’s official permitted salary limit from €648 million to €270 million for the current season reflects the tightening regulations implemented by La Liga clubs in November 2022.

These changes, which limit the use of ‘lever’ money for current expenditures to five percent of a club’s annual turnover, have forced Barcelona to make difficult decisions regarding player signings and squad management. With the club’s real squad cost for 2023-24 budgeted at €492 million, La Liga rules mandate cuts before any further player acquisitions can be made.
Barcelona’s attempts to bolster their squad during the winter transfer window have been hampered by the absence of the expected €40 million from Libero. Despite desires from key figures like Xavi, Laporta, and Deco to strengthen the team, the inability to secure additional funds has limited their options.
The recent signing of Vitor Roque as an ’emergency’ replacement for the injured Gavi highlights the club’s reliance on temporary solutions to navigate financial constraints. While Roque’s arrival provides temporary relief, his registration only extends until June 30, necessitating adjustments to the salary limit for a permanent inclusion.
Barcelona’s financial woes are compounded by their ongoing reliance on short-term fixes, exemplified by the temporary registration of players without addressing underlying squad cost and financial issues. La Liga insists that the expected €40 million from Libero must be accounted for within the club’s current season budgets, further complicating their financial outlook.

Additionally, the inclusion of €60 million from the Barca Studios lever in La Liga’s salary calculations underscores the intertwined nature of Barcelona’s financial struggles and their impact on league regulations. As the club navigates these challenges, the need for sustainable long-term solutions remains paramount to secure their financial stability and competitive standing in the future.
Barcelona Faces Mounting Financial Challenges Amid Regulatory Scrutiny
The failure to secure €40 million from Libero Football Finance would compound Barcelona’s financial woes, resulting in a significant €100 million shortfall in their 2023-24 accounts. With La Liga’s tightened rules limiting the use of ‘levers’ and the club already exceeding its salary limit, avenues for financial maneuverability are severely restricted.
The potential sale of high-earning players like Lewandowski or Frenkie de Jong by the end of the Spanish tax year could alleviate some pressure, but the first €100 million raised would need to offset the existing budget deficit. Until this is achieved, La Liga regulations prohibit any expenditure on new signings.
Efforts to secure permanent deals for loanees Joao Felix and Cancelo face substantial hurdles due to their substantial wages and transfer fees. Moreover, the looming departure of players like Vitor Roque and Martinez from the La Liga squad raises immediate concerns, with assurances from Barcelona regarding their registration for the next season.

Despite past successes in registering desired players through creative means, the club’s deep-rooted financial issues pose challenges for future transfer windows, with room for maneuver likely to diminish further.
Beyond domestic concerns, UEFA’s scrutiny of Barcelona’s financial practices adds to the club’s challenges. A recent fine imposed by UEFA for misreporting profits underscores the complexity of the situation. Despite the possibility of further appeals, UEFA’s latest financial sustainability rules will play a pivotal role in evaluating Barcelona’s financial health for the 2024-25 season and beyond, with strict guidelines on profit and loss calculations and allowances for losses.
Barcelona’s Financial Quandary: Navigating Profit Claims, UEFA Scrutiny, and Potential Remedies
Barcelona’s financial reports for the 2022-23 season boasted a net profit of €304 million, despite a staggering 39 percent surge in staff costs, elevating the club’s wage bill to €639 million, the highest in global football. This apparent profit was facilitated by including income from various sources, including a leveraged deal with Sixth Street and shares in Barca Studios.
However, UEFA’s scrutiny of such accounting practices raises concerns, as they may interpret the inclusion of non-transfer income as erroneous reporting. This could result in a significant loss on the books, potentially triggering severe penalties, especially if deemed a repeated offense within a three-year period.
While reports suggesting exclusion from the 2024-25 Champions League remain speculative, past instances such as Juventus’ exclusion highlight the gravity of UEFA’s sanctions for financial violations. Barcelona remains confident in avoiding such penalties, despite ongoing discussions about a potential European Super League and concerns about the club’s financial future.

Amidst these uncertainties, the prospect of selling a portion of the club to alleviate financial strains has emerged as a contentious topic. Jaume Roures, a close associate of Barcelona president Laporta, advocates for this approach, raising concerns among fans about the club’s cherished socio-owned model.
However, the urgency to address Barcelona’s financial woes grows as traditional short-term solutions, like leveraging future earnings, face resistance from governing bodies. With limited options available, the club’s leadership faces difficult decisions ahead, navigating the delicate balance between financial stability and preserving the club’s identity and values.
Barcelona’s Financial Challenges Persist Amidst Stadium Renovations and Revenue Losses
As Barcelona continues to grapple with financial hurdles, playing at their temporary Montjuic venue while the Camp Nou undergoes extensive renovations is expected to incur losses exceeding €78 million in lost earnings. Additionally, the club has commenced repayments of €40 million per season to Sixth Street for leveraging their domestic TV rights.
While the projected budget for the 2023-24 season initially showed an €8 million profit, industry sources suggest this outlook may be overly optimistic. The prevailing sentiment is that the club’s only viable path to financial stability is through player sales, both to generate immediate income and to alleviate the wage bill for subsequent seasons.
Camp Nou, Image Credits- Club Website
For any incoming manager, realism will be essential in navigating these financial constraints. There will be pressure to offload players, particularly the younger stars who represent the club’s most valuable assets.
Despite these challenges, senior figures at Barcelona remain steadfast in their belief that the socios model is not under threat and express confidence in the long-term strategies devised by President Laporta and his board. Anticipated returns to a partially renovated Camp Nou later this year, coupled with potential revenue boosts from ventures like the European Super League and changes in kit suppliers, offer glimmers of hope for improved financial performance.
President Laporta’s reassurances notwithstanding, Barcelona supporters and the incoming manager will scrutinize the club’s financial health with keen interest, hoping for tangible evidence of stability and progress in the face of ongoing challenges.
