Real Madrid icon Nacho backs Mourinho for success at the Bernabeu: Great things are comingSpeaking to AS in an interview, former Real Madrid captain and club legend Nacho Fernandez has backed new manager Jose Mourinho to lead the team back to the top after two underwhelming seasons.Los Blancos have brought Mourinho back this summer after last seasons debacle when the team failed to win any trophy and struggled to perform at the expected level under both Xabi Alonso and Alvaro Arbeloa.Nacho backs MourinhoGiven the situation, where there has been a lot of tension in the dressing room and the lack of trophies, Nacho believes that Mourinho is the right man to lead Real Madrid back to the top.The former Spanish international highlighted how the manager holds a special place in his career, having handed him his first-team debut with Los Blancos.Well, for me and my whole family, Mourinho is a special person. Hes the coach who has shaped my career, the one who gave me my debut, the one who gave me the opportunity, he said.I made my debut that day, but Id already done preseason training with him. After that match at Mestalla, many more games with the first team followed. Mou will always be special to me.Mourinho is back at Madrid. (Photo courtesy: Real Madrid official website)Continuing, he added: Regardless of the fact that hes a great coach, which he is, for me and my whole family, hes the coach, so to speak. What can I say? I wish him all the best in this second spell. I think a coach is coming in whos exactly what Real Madrid needs right now, a bit of a challenge. I remember that period as one of the best of my life. I was also at a time when we were doing very well at Castilla. Thats where it all started for me at Real Madrid. And Im very happy and very grateful, of course, to Mou.Talking about the changes that Real Madrid can expect to see with Mourinho in charge, Nacho explained: What I am sure of is that I dont know if theyll ultimately win titles, because this is football and its not easy, but he will definitely have the players fully committed, giving 100%. The intensity he brings to every training session and every match, having been on the inside, I can assure you its 100%. So, if the players and Mourinho can all pull together, I have no doubt that good things are coming for Real Madrid. Mou is a Real Madrid fan, hes a Madridista. Thats whats important; he knows perfectly well what it means to win and what it means to lose at this club. If the players are fully behind him, great things are coming for Real MadridThe absence of veterans being feltIn recent years, Real Madrid have had to bid goodbye to several club icons like Toni Kroos, Lucas Vazquez, Luka Modric, and Nacho himself, something that the Spaniard believes has hurt the team.Nacho left Real Madrid in 2024. (Photo by Angel Martinez/Getty Images)Dani Carvajal has also joined the list, having left the club this summer after his contract expired.Absolutely. I think without a doubt, and not just at Real Madrid. I believe that ultimately, at any club, its important to have homegrown talent, especially Spanish players, who have experienced what Real Madrid is all about since they were children, he said.They teach you how to win, how to respect your opponent, how to always give your all, how to fight until the last minute. I think these things are fundamental, especially at a club with the demands of Real Madrid. And if you also manage to have foreign players, like you said, Modric or Kroos, who seem like academy graduates because after so many years theyve become so ingrained in the clubs philosophy, its a consequence of all the titles weve won.On whether he will return to Real Madrid in the future in any capacity, Nacho replied: Real Madrid is my home, thats for sure. I cant tell you exactly how, but whatever they need, Ill be there without a doubt. I havent even thought about what Im going to do, or how, or what Im going to do after football. Madrid is my home, and Ill be there for them whenever they need me.

Ramadan The Scorpion Ondash did not call out Johan Jojo Ghazali because their friendship had fallen apart he did it because hes aiming for the top.The two 19-year-old Muay Thai prodigies first met on the amateur circuit in 2019 and remained friendly as their careers advanced. But after Ondash defeated Suriyanlek Por Yenying in his flyweight debut on May 29, he wanted an opponent who could propel him toward the divisions elite.View this post on InstagramThat is why the Lebanese sensation challenged Ghazali immediately after the victory. Now, the friends-turned-rivals will collide in the co-main event of The Inner Circle 24 on Friday, July 31, at Bangkoks iconic Lumpinee Stadium. The event streams live in Asia primetime exclusively for members at live.onefc.com.Ondash said:You know what? Me and Abdallah (Ondash) are brothers, but we fight each other every day. This is a job. This is business. I need to do my business in ONE Championship.But I dont want him to take it personally. When the fight finishes, whether I win or lose, we can be friends again. After the fight, we can go out, play golf, or do anything. I can invite him to eat.View this post on InstagramGhazali initially questioned why somebody he considered a friend would call him out, but Ondash insists the challenge was never personal. Their friendship can resume after the final bell. Until then, The Scorpion plans to meet Ghazalis aggression head-on.Ondash expects Jojo to march forward behind forceful kicks and heavy punches. Rather than viewing that pressure as a problem, he believes it will create exchanges where his speed, boxing, and power can make the difference.He said:He is strong. I think his plan will be to fight the same way Aliff [Sor Dechapan] always does, moving forward and kicking. That is good for me. It will be fun for me.This fight is very important for me. In this fight, I will either win or die. No loss.View this post on InstagramOndash has also identified openings in Ghazalis defense. He believes the Malaysian-American can leave his guard and body exposed, giving him targets for punches and body shots. He also expects Ghazalis elbows to be dangerous, but he refuses to approach the matchup with fear.Neither teenager has been knocked out under the ONE banner, and Ondash wants to become the first man to stop his opponent. The Tiger Muay Thai representative has trained for the past few months and has no desire to leave the result to the judges.Ondash added:Im different. Im faster. I have more speed and more power.You know me. I dont make predictions. But I dont want it to go to a decision. I have trained very hard for two or three months. I havent stopped training.View this post on InstagramOndash Sees Ghazali As Gateway To ONE World Title DreamFor Ramadan Ondash, defeating Johan Ghazali would mean much more than winning a high-profile battle between teenage stars.The Lebanese phenom has built a 5-1 promotional record since arriving in ONE Championship. He opened his tenure with four consecutive victories, capped by a second-round knockout of Chartpayak Saksatoon that earned him a six-figure contract.View this post on InstagramHis perfect run ended against Aliff Sor Dechapan in December, but Ondash responded by moving up to flyweight and dropping battle-tested Thai veteran Suriyanlek Por Yenying en route to a unanimous decision.Ghazali now represents the next major step. The Malaysian-American has collected eight ONE victories with six finishes, making him one of the divisions most recognizable young contenders. A statement win would move Ondash to 6-1 in the promotion, give him consecutive flyweight victories, and add another significant name to his resume.Ondash said:I should go for a title shot. Whoever is in my way, no problem.View this post on InstagramThe teenager began training at around 3 years old under the guidance of his older brother Ahmad. That work carried him through the amateur circuit, into Tiger Muay Thai, and onto the global stage.Now, Ondash believes defeating Ghazali can transform those years of sacrifice into a direct path toward ONE World Championship gold.At the summit stands undefeated ONE Flyweight Muay Thai World Champion Asadula The Dagestan Ninja Imangazaliev, who claimed the vacant throne with a split-decision victory over Aslamjon El Pantera Ortikov in June.View this post on InstagramOndash personally believed Ortikov deserved the decision, but the champions identity matters less to him than earning the opportunity. Whether Imangazaliev remains on the throne or another fighter takes his place, The Scorpion wants the belt.For Ondash, Ghazali is both a friend and a gateway. Beating one of the divisions biggest young names would give him the platform to demand the opportunity he has chased since childhood.Ondash concluded:I want to leave everything. Im ready to die or get the belt. That is my dream.View this post on InstagramSource
