BALLACK AND GERMANY BID FAREWELL 

Michael Ballack’s international career looks to be over after the 34-year-old midfielder was left out of the Germany squad for the Euro 2012 qualifiers against Austria and Azerbaijan.

Ballack has not played for Germany since March 2010. An injury while playing for Chelsea meant he missed the successful World Cup campaign in South Africa. The Germany manager, Joachim Low, said that Ballack cut short a visit to the World Cup training camp because “he no longer felt part of the team”.

The midfielder, who played a central role in Germany’s passage to the 2002 World Cup final and the 2008 European Championship final, has not been able to remain injury free since moving to Bayer Leverkusen. However, he did help Leverkusen finish second in the Bundesliga and qualify for the Champions League.

Low said he had not ruled out inviting Ballack to play in a farewell friendly against Brazil – who were Germany’s opponents in the 2002 World Cup final. “His achievements deserve some sort of recognition because of the contribution Michael has made to German football,” Low said.

CHAMPIONS LEAGUE FINAL: KEY BATTLES 

Manchester United meet Barcelona in the 

Champions League Final at Wembley tonight –

 PlanetFootball360 takes a look at three key 

battles that could decide the game.........

Nemanja Vidic v Javier Mascherano

Not a battle you might expect but injuries mean 

that Mascherano could be drafted into central

 defence. Vidic is always a threat at set-pieces 

and will come up for corners where he can use 

his height advantage against the smaller Argentinean.

Ji-Sung Park v Lionel Messi

Park is likely to be given the daunting task of tracking 

the world’s best player. The South Korean has endless 

energy and will stay as close as he can to Messi – 

but we’ve all seen what the ‘Little Flea’ can do with 

even a moment’s time and space with the ball.

Wayne Rooney v Gerard Pique

The two will have to put friendship behind them 

for at least 90 minutes. Pique has developed into 

one of Europe’s most cultured defenders since 

leaving United but Rooney will not be wasted out 

wide this time and has the power to trouble the Spaniard....

WILL NASRI LEAVE ARSENAL FOR RIVALS UNITED ? .................

Samir Nasri was arguably Arsenal’s player of the season but the Gunners’ failure to win silveware could see him leave for their greatest rivals.

The Frenchman is in the final year of his contract and Arsene Wenger has indicated he will sell before letting him leave on a free transfer – with Manchester United showing interest.

The former Marseille player would represent good value for United as a possible alternative to Aston Villa’s Ashley Young.

Arsenal will fight to keep Nasri but a sixth season without a trophy is said to have left the talented forward disillusioned – while United’s Patrice Evra has sent out a thinly veiled message to his countryman.

Evra, who has previously referred to Arsenal as a ‘training centre’, told L’Equipe: “Little Prince (Nasri’s nickname), if you want to become king, you know you should go.”

With Cesc Fabregas also expected to finally leave for Barcelona, losing Nasri would be a serious blow to Arsene Wenger – especially if he goes on to win trophies under Alex Ferguson.

It seems Arsenal are paying the price for lacking a winning mentality.......

NEW SPORTING COACH WARNS PORTO

New Sporting Lisbon coach Domingos Paciencia has warned Porto not to expect to have everything their own way next season in Portugal.

Porto completed the treble of Liga Sagres, Portuguese Cup and Europa League last season, with the Liga trophy being won without losing a game.

But former Porto star Paciencia said at his unveiling as the new Sporting coach on a two-year contract: "I'm here to win. We are going to fight for first place. I believe that we can do better that last season, which is why I am here.”

Sporting finished third in the Liga, but they have not won a trophy since 2008 and have not topped the Liga for nine years.

Meanwhile, Porto president Pinta da Costa is sure that his highly successful coach, Andre Villas-Boas, would turn down Chelsea if the English club paid for his release to replace the sacked Carlo Ancelotti.

He told Portuguese broadcaster PTP: "I do not expect Villas-Boas to leave. There is a release clause of 15million euros, but I am totally convinced that even if any club came in with the offer, he would reject it. Villas-Boas is very committed to Porto.”

INTER READY TO FIGHT UNITED FOR SANCHEZ

Internazionale have said they are ready to fight Manchester United and Manchester City to bring Alexis Sanchez to San Siro.

Udinese’s Chilean winger is expected to leave the Stadio Fruilii after helping the club into fourth place in Serie A. Manchester United are slight favourites to sign the 22-year-old, with the club’s president, Adriano Fedele, saying he would recommend a move to Old Trafford.

Nevertheless, although Manchester City might offer Sanchez a better contract, Inter’s sporting director, Piero Ausilio, said Inter would be trying hard to reach an agreement with him.

“We are trying very hard to get Alexis Sanchez but Udinese are putting a very high price on him,” Ausilio said. “But we like him very much and we are very keen to make him part of our future.”

Udinese are reported to want €30m for Sanchez, a price that both Manchester sides could afford but which might test Inter’s financial reserves. After confirming that Leonardo will coach the club for a second season, Inter have indicated they will spend heavily in the transfer market this summer.

CAN JI-SUNG PARK STOP LIONEL MESSI ?

Manchester United face the daunting challenge of playing Barcelona in the Champions League Final on May 28th.

While critics claim that United have been average this season, Barcelona have been hailed as the greatest team in the history of football – and, they also have the world’s best player in Lionel Messi.

If United are to succeed where they failed in the 2009 final, they will have to find a way of stopping the brilliant Argentinean – and the surprise solution is Ji-Sung Park.

The midfielder is United’s unsung hero - renowned for his exceptional work rate and big game mentality. As Patrice Evra notes, “He’s one of the most important players in the team because he never stops running, he can run all day”.

Park’s endless energy allows him defensive discipline and he will be given the role of tirelessly tracking Messi to prevent the playmaker from having too much time and space on the ball.

Another aspect of Park’s game is his attacking thrust and he has recently risen to the occasion again with important goals against Arsenal and Chelsea.

At Wembley, it could be the quiet Korean who manages to silence the world’s most talked about player.
