&lt;p&gt;The &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/kansas-city-chiefs&quot;&gt;Kansas City Chiefs&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; are preparing for an offseason with many changes. Andy Reid knows it is very likely that he will lose several members of his coaching staff, despite the team failing to qualify for the playoffs.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;One of the most coveted names on the market is Matt Nagy, who has scheduled interviews in his pursuit to become head coach of teams such as the Tennessee Titans, the Arizona Cardinals, and the Las Vegas Raiders.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;However, as the days go by, more personnel are receiving opportunities to upgrade their roles elsewhere. Undoubtedly, this could compromise Reid’s chances of winning next year, but in the &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/nfl&quot;&gt;NFL&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;, change is inevitable.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;h2&gt;Did Chiefs fire their head coach?&lt;/h2&gt;



&lt;p&gt;No. The Chiefs did not fire their head coach, Andy Reid, and the legend is expected to return for the 2026 season. However, it has been revealed that a member of his staff could be headed to the NFC East.&lt;/p&gt;


        

        


&lt;h2&gt;Is Andy Reid’s coach leaving the Chiefs?&lt;/h2&gt;



&lt;p&gt;Joe Cullen, one of Andy Reid’s coaches, could leave the Kansas City Chiefs to sign with the Washington Commanders. Dan Quinn is searching for a defensive coordinator, and according to a report by Mike Garafolo, Cullen is a leading candidate.&lt;/p&gt;


        &lt;div class=&quot;wp_fsn_relatedlinks&quot; id=&quot;BUS#/nfl/andy-reid-officially-confirms-if-head-coach-will-leave-chiefs-in-2026-for-another-team-or-retirement&quot;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;


&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;“The Commanders have interviewed Chiefs DL coach Joe Cullen for their vacant defensive coordinator job, source said. He is a long-time D-line guru and was previously the Jaguars DC.”&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;During the 2025 NFL regular season, the &lt;strong&gt;Carolina Panthers&lt;/strong&gt; stunned the &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/los-angeles-rams&quot;&gt;Los Angeles Rams&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;. Now, the two teams are set to &lt;strong&gt;meet again in the 2026 playoffs&lt;/strong&gt;, and head coach &lt;strong&gt;Sean McVay has made one thing clear about that costly loss&lt;/strong&gt; to Carolina.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;In Week 13, the Panthers shocked the league by defeating the Rams. Now, the teams will face off again in a &lt;strong&gt;win-or-go-home scenario&lt;/strong&gt;, and &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.co+m/en/topic/sean-mcvay&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;noreferrer noopener&quot;&gt;McVay&lt;/a&gt; knows Los Angeles cannot afford to repeat the same mistakes they made in that matchup.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;“They did a great job,”&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; McVay said of the &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/carolina-panthers&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;noreferrer noopener&quot;&gt;Panthers&lt;/a&gt;‘ win in Week 13. &lt;em&gt;“They made the plays to win the game and we came up short. We had our chances but there’s a lot of learning opps. There’s a lot of &lt;strong&gt;learning opps&lt;/strong&gt; even when we’ve gotten the results we wanted in those 12 wins we had. But this was a good,&lt;strong&gt; humbling day&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;“&lt;em&gt;You don’t take away anything — &lt;strong&gt;they earned that win&lt;/strong&gt;, but we do have a very clear understanding of what’s going to be required for us to be at our best, to do the things that are necessary first and foremost starting with ourselves, and then geared toward the opponent and the scheme. &lt;strong&gt;Our players have a lot of respect for these guys.&lt;/strong&gt; We’ll be ready to go, but we know what a great challenge it’ll be.”&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;h2&gt;The pressure is on the Rams&lt;/h2&gt;



&lt;p&gt;For their 2026 Wild Card matchup against the Panthers, the Rams are listed as 10.5-point favorites. &lt;strong&gt;Los Angeles is clearly the more talented team on paper&lt;/strong&gt;, but this is not a game they can take lightly.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;The Rams finished the regular season with a 12–5 record, while the Panthers went 8–9. However, &lt;strong&gt;Carolina will host the playoff matchup&lt;/strong&gt; after winning their division, giving them a &lt;strong&gt;home-field advantage&lt;/strong&gt; that could play a significant role in the outcome.&lt;/p&gt;


        &lt;div class=&quot;wp_fsn_relatedlinks&quot; id=&quot;BUS#/nfl/panthers-hc-dave-canales-sends-clear-message-to-bryce-young-ahead-of-first-nfl-playoff-appearance&quot;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;


&lt;p&gt;For many fans, it is &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/super-bowl&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;noreferrer noopener&quot;&gt;Super Bowl&lt;/a&gt; or bust for the Rams&lt;/strong&gt;, while expectations are far lower for the Panthers. That imbalance puts enormous pressure on Sean McVay’s squad, as a loss to a team with a losing record would raise serious questions about whether Los Angeles was ever truly a championship contender.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;h2&gt;Is Matthew Stafford retiring after the 2026 NFL playoffs?&lt;/h2&gt;



&lt;p&gt;Before the 2025 NFL season, &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/matthew-stafford&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;noreferrer noopener&quot;&gt;Matthew Stafford&lt;/a&gt; agreed to a two-year, $84 million extension&lt;/strong&gt; with the Rams. However, his future could hinge on how far Los Angeles goes in the playoffs.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;According to rumors, the &lt;strong&gt;37-year-old quarterback could consider retirement&lt;/strong&gt; depending on the postseason outcome. Stafford could either walk away from the game with another Super Bowl title—or return for one final run with the Rams in 2026.&lt;/p&gt;

After all, &lt;strong&gt;John Harbaugh&lt;/strong&gt; was fired by the &lt;strong&gt;Baltimore Ravens&lt;/strong&gt;. Now, the team is interviewing a former &lt;strong&gt;Shedeur Sanders&lt;/strong&gt; coach to see if he is the one to take the mantle.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;After &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/lamar-jackson-could-get-new-hc-fast-as-ravens-completed-interview-with-possible-john-harbaugh-replacement&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;noreferrer noopener&quot;&gt;interviewing one of the hottest offensive coordinators in the NFL as a possible replacement for John Harbaugh&lt;/a&gt;, the Ravens are keeping other candidates on their mind. Hence, &lt;strong&gt;they interviewed Kevin Stefanski for their head coaching vacancy.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/john-harbaugh&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;noreferrer noopener&quot;&gt;Harbaugh&lt;/a&gt; had a very good tenure on the Ravens, but his era was done. The team and him weren’t able to achieve the success wanted in the last couple of years and &lt;strong&gt;it seems like his relationship with Lamar Jackson deteriorated.&lt;/strong&gt; Hence, it was time for a change.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;h2&gt;Stefanski is one of the best coaches available&lt;/h2&gt;



&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;A two-time Coach of the Year, &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/kevin-stefanski&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;noreferrer noopener&quot;&gt;Stefanski&lt;/a&gt; was trying to make miracles in Cleveland and actually succeeded twice, hence his accolades&lt;/strong&gt;. However, this season he had to deal with a quarterback carrousel that included the highly-polarizing &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/shedeur-sanders&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;noreferrer noopener&quot;&gt;Shedeur Sanders&lt;/a&gt;. Just as Harbaugh with the Ravens, Stefanski and the Browns were done with each other after this season.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;figure class=&quot;wp-block-image size-full&quot;&gt;&lt;figure class=&quot;image&quot;&gt;&lt;img loading=&quot;lazy&quot; width=&quot;1920&quot; height=&quot;1080&quot; src=&quot;https://media.bolavip.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/01/04153226/HC-Kevin-Stefanski-of-the-Cleveland-Browns-2026-1920x1080.webp&quot; alt=&quot;HC Kevin Stefanski of the Cleveland Browns (2026)&quot; class=&quot;wp-image-556449&quot;&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;&lt;figcaption&gt;HC Kevin Stefanski of the Cleveland Browns (2026)&lt;/figcaption&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;



&lt;p&gt;A brilliant offensive mind, Stefanski’s playbook is deep in developing the running game. &lt;strong&gt;The &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/baltimore-ravens&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;noreferrer noopener&quot;&gt;Ravens&lt;/a&gt; are one of the most prolific running teams in the league thanks to Jackson and star running back Derrick Henry&lt;/strong&gt;. Therefore, Stefanski could make this an even bigger offense. It’s a perfect fit.&lt;/p&gt;


        &lt;div class=&quot;wp_fsn_relatedlinks&quot; id=&quot;BUS#/nfl/browns-could-steal-justin-herberts-key-chargers-coach-to-lead-shedeur-sanders-as-head-coach&quot;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;


&lt;h2&gt;Stefanski is proven in many ways&lt;/h2&gt;



&lt;p&gt;While the Browns organization was a circus at times, Stefanski always rode a tight ship. At least while the front office didn’t override him. &lt;strong&gt;Stefanski, if signed by the Ravens, would enter a solid organization and culture&lt;/strong&gt;. His only task would be winning football games. No distractions.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;Stefanski has worked with adversity before. &lt;strong&gt;Here, he’d work with expectations&lt;/strong&gt;. He’d also work in a division he knows very well. In the end, the &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cleveland-browns&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;noreferrer noopener&quot;&gt;Browns&lt;/a&gt; and Ravens are AFC North foes.&lt;/p&gt;

Lamar Jackson’s Ravens interviewed former Shedeur Sanders coach as possible replacement for John Harbaugh

Lamar Jackson's Ravens interviewed former Shedeur Sanders coach as possible replacement for John Harbaugh - Bolavip US

&lt;p&gt;The &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cleveland-browns&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;noreferrer noopener&quot;&gt;Cleveland Browns&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; are trying to start a new, exciting era with &lt;strong&gt;Shedeur Sanders&lt;/strong&gt; entering into his second year in the &lt;strong&gt;NFL&lt;/strong&gt;. The team has a head coaching vacancy, and its looking at a key figure on the &lt;strong&gt;Los Angels Chargers&lt;/strong&gt; as they and &lt;strong&gt;Justin Herbert&lt;/strong&gt; prepare for a playoff battle.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;According to multiple reports, &lt;strong&gt;the Browns asked permission to interview Jesse Minter&lt;/strong&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/los-angeles-chargers&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;noreferrer noopener&quot;&gt;Chargers&lt;/a&gt; current defensive coordinator, for their head coaching vacancy. Minter has found incredible success under Jim Harbaugh.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;While the HC designs great plays for Justin Herbert, &lt;strong&gt;Minter has made this Chargers defense one of the best units in the NFL&lt;/strong&gt;. Still, &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/lamar-jackson-could-lose-a-ravens-coach-to-shedeur-sanders-browns-in-2026&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;noreferrer noopener&quot;&gt;the Ravens could also lose a coach to the Browns&lt;/a&gt;, as Minter is not the only candidate.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;h2&gt;While not the only candidate, Minter is the most intriguing one&lt;/h2&gt;



&lt;p&gt;Minter has the Chargers as the fifth-best total defense, fifth-best passing defense, eighth-best rushing defense, and ninth-best scoring defense. &lt;strong&gt;Overall, Minter has made an elite unit shine in this year&lt;/strong&gt;. Minter became the team’s defensive coordinator back in 2024.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;figure class=&quot;wp-block-image size-full&quot;&gt;&lt;figure class=&quot;image&quot;&gt;&lt;img loading=&quot;lazy&quot; width=&quot;1920&quot; height=&quot;1080&quot; src=&quot;https://media.bolavip.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/01/09145747/jesse-minter-1920x1080.webp&quot; alt=&quot;Defensive coordinator Jesse Minter of the Los Angeles Chargers&quot; class=&quot;wp-image-559176&quot;&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;&lt;figcaption&gt;Defensive coordinator Jesse Minter of the Los Angeles Chargers&lt;/figcaption&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;



&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Minter also worked with Harbaugh at Michigan&lt;/strong&gt;, &lt;strong&gt;also as DC&lt;/strong&gt;. They won the Natty together, and even served as the interim head coach while Harbaugh served a suspension. Minter won that game. At 42 years old, he is one of the biggest head coaching prospects in the &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/nfl&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;noreferrer noopener&quot;&gt;NFL&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;


        &lt;div class=&quot;wp_fsn_relatedlinks&quot; id=&quot;BUS#/nfl/shedeur-sanders-sends-clear-message-to-browns-about-qb1-battle-heading-into-next-nfl-season&quot;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;


&lt;h2&gt;The Browns need to get this hire right&lt;/h2&gt;



&lt;p&gt;The Browns fired &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/kevin-stefanski&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;noreferrer noopener&quot;&gt;Kevin Stefanski&lt;/a&gt;, and the decision was the right one. It seems like both parties were done with each other. &lt;strong&gt;However, he is a two-time Coach of the Year, and that is hard to replace&lt;/strong&gt;, especially on the Browns franchise. &lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;Not only have the Browns not been good for many years, but &lt;strong&gt;they need a top coach to help develop &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/shedeur-sanders&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;noreferrer noopener&quot;&gt;Shedeur Sanders&lt;/a&gt; as well&lt;/strong&gt;. It’s more than just a head coach job, it’s a developing matter and a rebuild all at once.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/aaron-rodgers&quot;&gt;Aaron Rodgers&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; sent a very clear message to everyone who doubted the &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/pittsburgh-steelers&quot;&gt;Pittsburgh Steelers&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; when they had a 6-6 record and it seemed they were going to miss the playoffs. It is important to remember that, in that game against the Bills, hundreds of fans were calling for Mike Tomlin’s dismissal in Acrisure Stadium.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;“At 6-6 there were a lot of people thinking that we were going to be kind of stumbling to the finish. A lot of you publicly or privately were talking about Mike Tomlin getting axed. So, it feels good to shut all those comments down. Clean the slate now. Anybody can make a run. It’s the hottest team. We’ve won four out of five. We’re playing a lot better football than we were earlier in the season. I like our chances.”&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;Now, the story has completely changed. The Steelers finished the season with a 10-7 record, won the AFC North in epic fashion, and will have a real opportunity to compete for the &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/super-bowl&quot;&gt;Super Bowl&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; in the playoffs.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;h2&gt;Aaron Rodgers and Steelers are underdogs against Texans&lt;/h2&gt;



&lt;p&gt;Aaron Rodgers and the Pittsburgh Steelers are three-point underdogs against the Houston Texans in the Wild Card Round of the playoffs. It is a very similar scenario to last week’s game at home against the Ravens.&lt;/p&gt;


        

        


&lt;p&gt;Additionally, in a very important development, Rodgers gets DK Metcalf back after the wide receiver’s two-game suspension. That could make a big difference.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;“DK is a number one wide receiver. So, it’s great having DK back. He’s real thankful to be back. I know that. And we’re all thankful to have him back as well. One of the things I love about DK is that he kind of knows one speed. I like the work that we out in.”&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/new-york-yankees&quot;&gt;New York Yankees&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; have been chasing &lt;strong&gt;Cody Bellinger&lt;/strong&gt; throughout the offseason, and there is no doubt he remains their top target as they look to position themselves as strong contenders for the World Series next &lt;strong&gt;MLB &lt;/strong&gt;season. Bellinger is viewed as the missing piece to elevate the roster, but the process has turned out to be far more complicated than initially expected.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;Bellinger does not appear close to reaching an agreement. Brendan Kuty of The Athletic &lt;strong&gt;reported that talks have continued, but both sides remain far apart, mainly due to disagreements over contract length&lt;/strong&gt;. According to MLB insider Jon Morosi, &lt;strong&gt;Bellinger and the Boras Corporation are seeking a six or seven-year deal&lt;/strong&gt;, while the Yankees are pushing for a four or five-year commitment.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;Bellinger opted out of his Yankees contract after a strong 2025 season and &lt;strong&gt;entered free agency searching for long-term security&lt;/strong&gt;. The Yankees acquired him from the Chicago Cubs in December 2024 at a relatively low cost, and he went on to deliver an excellent season, becoming a key contributor to the lineup.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;During the 2025 &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/mlb&quot;&gt;MLB&lt;/a&gt; season, &lt;strong&gt;Bellinger hit .272 with 29 home runs, 98 RBIs, and an .813 OPS across 152 games&lt;/strong&gt;. That total marked his highest home run output since 2019. He ranked among the most complete outfielders in baseball, adding value with his defense, speed, and versatility while playing all three outfield positions and first base.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;figure class=&quot;wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped&quot;&gt;
&lt;figure class=&quot;wp-block-image size-large&quot;&gt;&lt;figure class=&quot;image&quot;&gt;&lt;img loading=&quot;lazy&quot; width=&quot;1920&quot; height=&quot;1080&quot; data-id=&quot;553393&quot; src=&quot;https://media.bolavip.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/12/29144245/cody-bellinger-1-4-1920x1080.webp&quot; alt=&quot;Cody Bellinger&quot; class=&quot;wp-image-553393&quot;&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;&lt;figcaption&gt;Cody Bellinger #35 of the New York Yankees.&lt;/figcaption&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;
&lt;/figure&gt;



&lt;h2&gt;The latest offer Bellinger received from the Yankees&lt;/h2&gt;



&lt;p&gt;The Yankees’ &lt;strong&gt;latest offer to &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cody-bellinger&quot;&gt;Cody Bellinger&lt;/a&gt; reportedly exceeded $30 million in average annual value&lt;/strong&gt;. However, according to Kuty, Bellinger and his camp continued to prioritize contract length, with a strong preference for a seven-year deal. New York reportedly made at least two multi-year offers, including the most recent proposal.&lt;/p&gt;


        &lt;div class=&quot;wp_fsn_relatedlinks&quot; id=&quot;BUS#/mlb/not-ny-yankees-or-ny-mets-cody-bellinger-seen-as-favorite-over-kyle-tucker-for-another-team&quot;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

        

        


&lt;p&gt;The Yankees&lt;strong&gt; were believed to be more comfortable with a four or five-year contract&lt;/strong&gt;, a stance that led to the current stalemate. Since Juan Soto left the team, ownership has shown increased caution when it comes to handing out long-term deals, favoring flexibility over extended commitments.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;With negotiations dragging on, the Yankees have started to view the situation as increasingly difficult. As a result, &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/mlb/ny-yankees-reportedly-considering-another-free-agent-as-cody-bellinger-talks-extend&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;they have begun to monitor other free agent options due to the extended talks with Bellinger&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, including Bo Bichette, according to Jon Heyman of the New York Post.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;“The Yankees and No. 1 target Cody Bellinger have exchanged multiple proposals but haven’t closed the gap quite enough to shut off other possibilities,”&lt;/em&gt; Heyman wrote. &lt;em&gt;“&lt;strong&gt;New York is now looking more seriously at superstar infielder Bo Bichette&lt;/strong&gt;,”&lt;/em&gt; as the offseason continues to evolve.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/new-york-yankees&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;noreferrer noopener&quot;&gt;New York Yankees&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; have been in a tiring situation to sort out if &lt;strong&gt;Cody Bellinger&lt;/strong&gt; will return to the team or not. However, the team is making moves to strengthen their depth chart.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;According to Bryan Hoch, &lt;strong&gt;the Yankees claimed RHP Kaleb Ort off waiveers from the Houston Astros&lt;/strong&gt;. He is an experienced righty that will do fine in the bullpen. He is 33 years old and is coming off a season where he registered career highs in games, innings, and strikeouts.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;While a different priority, the Yankees at least bolster their roster elsewhere while they continue battling over &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cody-bellinger&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;noreferrer noopener&quot;&gt;Cody Bellinger&lt;/a&gt; with other teams, including the Mets. Also, &lt;strong&gt;while this is a move to strengthen the bullpen, at least they landed a pitcher&lt;/strong&gt;, as &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/mlb/mlb-insider-reveals-why-the-yankees-backed-off-a-pursuit-of-tarik-skubal&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;noreferrer noopener&quot;&gt;they’re backing off from the Tarik Skubal sweepstakes&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/p&gt;



&lt;h2&gt;What are Ort’s best strengths?&lt;/h2&gt;



&lt;p&gt;Regarded as an experienced but volatile reliever, Ort has struggled with consistency and control throughout his career. However, &lt;strong&gt;no one can deny he has a powerful arm that sends fastballs that can top 100 mph&lt;/strong&gt;. Ort also has cutters and sliders within his pitching arsenal.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Ort posted a 2.55 ERA over 22 appearances in the second half of 2024, which showed he had a more refined usage. However, the 2025 &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/mlb&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;noreferrer noopener&quot;&gt;MLB&lt;/a&gt; season saw him post a 4.89 ERA and &lt;strong&gt;his season ended abruptly due to an elbow injury&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;


        &lt;div class=&quot;wp_fsn_relatedlinks&quot; id=&quot;BUS#/mlb/phillies-reportedly-join-ny-yankees-in-race-for-coveted-free-agent-which-could-seal-jt-realmutos-fate&quot;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;


&lt;h2&gt;Did the Yankees need to sign Ort?&lt;/h2&gt;



&lt;p&gt;One can assume the Yankees view Ort as a low-risk acquisition with the potential to be a decent-to-good middle reliever. &lt;strong&gt;Ort has shown upside but at 33 years old, he still remains as a wild card due to his inconsistency&lt;/strong&gt;. He can either save you a game or lose you one.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;Also, the fact that he suffered an elbow injury is quite concerning. This is one of the worst injuries a pitcher can suffer. Hence, that joined by his inconsistency makes Ort a boom-or-bust waiver. However, &lt;strong&gt;he also has an upside paired with a cheap contract.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

NY Yankees make move on the roster amid Cody Bellinger's uncertainty - Bolavip US

&lt;p&gt;The &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/philadelphia-phillies&quot;&gt;Philadelphia Phillies&lt;/a&gt; would use &lt;strong&gt;Alec Bohm and J.T. Realmuto&lt;/strong&gt; as key pieces to open the door for &lt;strong&gt;Bo Bichette&lt;/strong&gt;, according to Bob Nightengale in a recent report detailing how the front office would need to part ways with multiple players to land the former Blue Jays star.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;“The Phillies would have to cut off negotiations &lt;strong&gt;with Realmuto, trade third baseman Alec Bohm and his $10.2 million salary, &lt;/strong&gt;find a team willing to take right fielder Nick Castellanos while paying at least a small portion of his $20 million salary, and perhaps move others as well,”&lt;/em&gt; Nightengale wrote for USA Today.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;As outlined, it wouldn’t just be Realmuto or Bohm. Castellanos would also likely be on the way out, &lt;strong&gt;something that had already been anticipated &lt;/strong&gt;for the 2026 &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/mlb&quot;&gt;MLB&lt;/a&gt; season after the Phillies added another outfielder during the current market. That puts at least three notable players in play as Philadelphia reshapes its roster.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;h2&gt;Phillies pushing harder for Bichette&lt;/h2&gt;



&lt;p&gt;Bichette, who was somewhat limited last season to &lt;strong&gt;139 games but still produced 181 hits, 18 home runs, 94 RBIs and a .311 average&lt;/strong&gt;, has reportedly said recently that playing in Philadelphia would appeal to him. From that point on, the Phillies’ interest has intensified, according to Nightengale.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;div class=&quot;ck-twitter&quot;&gt;&lt;blockquote class=&quot;twitter-tweet&quot; data-media-max-width=&quot;560&quot;&gt;&lt;p lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;Bo Bichette and the Phillies will reportedly be meeting in the coming days 👀&lt;a href=&quot;https://twitter.com/hashtag/MLBTonight?src=hash&amp;amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw&quot;&gt;#MLBTonight&lt;/a&gt; discusses Bichette&apos;s market and his potential fit on the reigning NL East champions.&lt;a href=&quot;https://twitter.com/SieraSantos?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw&quot;&gt;@SieraSantos&lt;/a&gt; | &lt;a href=&quot;https://twitter.com/CY24_7?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw&quot;&gt;@CY24_7&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;https://t.co/5svCMxjrCn&quot;&gt;pic.twitter.com/5svCMxjrCn&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;— MLB Network (@MLBNetwork) &lt;a href=&quot;https://twitter.com/MLBNetwork/status/2009387460376060119?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw&quot;&gt;January 8, 2026&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/div&gt; 



&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;“The Phillies’ interest in potentially signing Bichette came about after the holidays when Bichette expressed a desire in playing for them,&lt;strong&gt; particularly after the hiring last week of Don Mattingly as their bench coach. &lt;/strong&gt;Mattingly was the Toronto Blue Jays’ bench coach the past three years and became close to Bichette.”&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Signing a player of Bichette’s caliber won’t be easy for Philadelphia, or any team, given the&lt;strong&gt; cost and complexity involved.&lt;/strong&gt; Still, the front office appears realistic about the challenge. &lt;em&gt;“Two Phillies executives cautioned that signing Bichette remains a long-shot, insisting it would be complicated and involve significant roster changes, &lt;strong&gt;but that it’s certainly possible&lt;/strong&gt;,” Nightengale reported.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

MLB Rumors: Alec Bohm, JT Realmuto could hold the key to Bo Bichette landing with the Phillies

MLB Rumors: Alec Bohm, JT Realmuto could hold the key to Bo Bichette landing with the Phillies - Bolavip US

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Tarik Skubal&lt;/strong&gt; has submitted his arbitration figure, &lt;strong&gt;seeking $32 million per yea&lt;/strong&gt;r, a number many around the league expected. The &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/detroit-tigers&quot;&gt;Detroit Tigers&lt;/a&gt;, however, countered &lt;strong&gt;at $19 million&lt;/strong&gt;, creating a gap of more than $10 million. According to an analysis by Bob Nightengale, the pitcher won’t need to do much to justify his ask.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;Nightengale laid out what Skubal needs to prove in a post on X:&lt;em&gt; “So with the enormous $13 million gap between Skubal ($32M) and the Tigers ($19M), Skubal’s side &lt;strong&gt;must prove he’s worth more than the midpoint&lt;/strong&gt; of $25.5 million,”&lt;/em&gt; the &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/mlb&quot;&gt;MLB&lt;/a&gt; insider wrote.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;On the surface, &lt;strong&gt;it appears to be a fairly straightforward case&lt;/strong&gt;. Given that Skubal recently won the AL Cy Young Award, his camp will simply need to highlight how dominant he has been. &lt;em&gt;“If &lt;strong&gt;the arbitrator panel agrees&lt;/strong&gt;, Skubal will be paid his $32 million, making him the sixth-highest-paid starter in baseball.”&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;h2&gt;What was Skubal’s salary in 2025?&lt;/h2&gt;



&lt;p&gt;During the 2025 season, Skubal &lt;strong&gt;earned $10.15 million&lt;/strong&gt;, the highest salary of his MLB career to date. In 2024, he made $2.6 million. If he secures the $32 million he is requesting, that would represent a &lt;strong&gt;220 percent increase in earnings&lt;/strong&gt; for the 2026 season.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;



&lt;p&gt;According to Mark Feinsand, the Tigers have dealt with a similar arbitration situation before. &lt;em&gt;“The record for a pitcher in arbitration&lt;strong&gt; is David Price at $19.75 million in 2015,&lt;/strong&gt;”&lt;/em&gt; Feinsand reported on X.&lt;/p&gt;


        &lt;div class=&quot;wp_fsn_relatedlinks&quot; id=&quot;BUS#/mlb/mlb-insider-reveals-why-the-yankees-backed-off-a-pursuit-of-tarik-skubal&quot;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;


&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;“The Tigers&lt;strong&gt; haven’t gone to an arbitration hearing with a player since 2001;&lt;/strong&gt; they won their case against right-hander Michael Fulmer in 2019. Last year, Skubal and the Tigers settled on a $10.15 million contract to avoid a hearing,” Jorge Castillo wrote for ESPN.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;Reaction to Skubal’s arbitration figure quickly surfaced on X as well.&lt;em&gt; “Tarik Skubal is gonna attend this arbitration hearing, &lt;strong&gt;hear the Tigers argue how he’s not actually that awesome&lt;/strong&gt;, and use it as fuel to win a third straight Cy Young and make $500 million,”&lt;/em&gt; wrote Nugget Chef (@jayhaykid) of Underdog.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/new-york-yankees&quot;&gt;New York Yankees&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; are actively searching for a key signing ahead of the 2026 &lt;strong&gt;MLB &lt;/strong&gt;season, and while &lt;strong&gt;Cody Bellinger&lt;/strong&gt; remains the primary target, prolonged negotiations have forced the club to seriously explore alternative options. As talks continue without resolution, the front office is preparing a clear Plan B to avoid being left empty-handed.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;With negotiations stalled with Bellinger, &lt;strong&gt;attention is increasingly turning toward Bo Bichette&lt;/strong&gt;. At least that is the assessment from Jon Heyman of the New York Post, who reports that the Yankees are expanding their focus as the market develops and timelines stretch deeper into the offseason.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;“The Yankees and No. 1 target Cody Bellinger have exchanged multiple proposals but haven’t closed the gap quite enough to shut off other possibilities, either for Bellinger or the Yankees,”&lt;/em&gt; Heyman writes. &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;“New York is now looking more seriously at superstar infielder Bo Bichette&lt;/strong&gt;.”&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;Heyman adds that &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cody-bellinger&quot;&gt;Bellinger&lt;/a&gt; &lt;strong&gt;continues to draw interest from several teams, including the Chicago Cubs and Los Angeles Dodgers&lt;/strong&gt;, while the Yankees evaluate major lineup upgrades. Bichette, who was contacted earlier in the winter, has emerged as a legitimate alternative as discussions with Bellinger linger.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;figure class=&quot;wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped&quot;&gt;
&lt;figure class=&quot;wp-block-image size-large&quot;&gt;&lt;figure class=&quot;image&quot;&gt;&lt;img loading=&quot;lazy&quot; width=&quot;1920&quot; height=&quot;1080&quot; data-id=&quot;557271&quot; src=&quot;https://media.bolavip.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/01/06102048/Bo-Bichette-running-for-base-1920x1080.webp&quot; alt=&quot;Bo Bichette running for base&quot; class=&quot;wp-image-557271&quot;&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;&lt;figcaption&gt;Bo Bichette #11 of the Toronto Blue Jays rounds the bases.&lt;/figcaption&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;
&lt;/figure&gt;



&lt;h2&gt;The challenge the Yankees would face&lt;/h2&gt;



&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/bo-bichette&quot;&gt;Bo Bichette&lt;/a&gt; fits a clear need for a club that lacks right-handed impact bats, and his offensive profile has continued to evolve&lt;/strong&gt; into one of the most reliable in baseball. The main challenge for the Yankees would be positional flexibility, particularly with Jazz Chisholm Jr. already on the roster, requiring careful roster planning to maximize value.&lt;/p&gt;


        &lt;div class=&quot;wp_fsn_relatedlinks&quot; id=&quot;BUS#/mlb/phillies-reportedly-join-ny-yankees-in-race-for-coveted-free-agent-which-could-seal-jt-realmutos-fate&quot;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

        

        


&lt;h2&gt;How the Yankees arrived at Bichette as an option&lt;/h2&gt;



&lt;p&gt;After losing Juan Soto to the New York Mets last offseason, &lt;strong&gt;the Yankees pivoted aggressively and brought Bellinger to the Bronx&lt;/strong&gt;, pairing him with Aaron Judge in the outfield. Bellinger delivered a strong 2025 &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/mlb&quot;&gt;MLB&lt;/a&gt; season, &lt;strong&gt;batting .272 with 29 home runs and 98 RBIs&lt;/strong&gt;, positioning himself for a significant payday in free agency.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;While both sides remain open to a reunion, no agreement has materialized, prompting the Yankees to keep contingency plans active. Bichette stands out among the top remaining bats on the market, coming off a bounce-back 2025 season with the Toronto Blue Jays &lt;strong&gt;in which he hit .311 with 18 home runs and 94 RBIs&lt;/strong&gt;, helping his team reach the World Series and reestablishing himself as a cornerstone-level talent.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lionel-messi&quot;&gt;Lionel Messi&lt;/a&gt; is coming off a stellar 2025 where he led &lt;strong&gt;Inter Miami&lt;/strong&gt; to the first &lt;strong&gt;MLS Cup&lt;/strong&gt; title in franchise history. The Herons want to repeat last season’s success, and to that end, the front office has made official the signing of an Argentine who could fill the void left by &lt;strong&gt;Sergio Busquets&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;“Inter Miami CF announced today it has signed Argentine midfielder &lt;strong&gt;David Ayala&lt;/strong&gt; from the Portland Timbers. Ayala joins Inter Miami as part of MLS’s U22 Initiative, bolsters the Club’s midfield depth, and will remain under contract &lt;strong&gt;through the conclusion of the 2026 Major League Soccer (MLS) season&lt;/strong&gt;,&lt;/em&gt;” Inter Miami stated in an &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.intermiamicf.com/news/inter-miami-cf-signs-midfielder-david-ayala&quot;&gt;official release&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;Inter Miami view the 23-year-old midfielder as the potential replacement for &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/sergio-busquets&quot;&gt;Busquets&lt;/a&gt; in the middle of the pitch, who retired after winning the championship alongside Jordi Alba. &lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;His playing characteristics are similar to the Spaniard’s, and the statistics reflect it: while Busquets averaged &lt;strong&gt;59.2 completed passes per game&lt;/strong&gt;, Ayala led the Timbers with &lt;strong&gt;47.2 passes&lt;/strong&gt; per match at an &lt;strong&gt;88% completion rate.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;



&lt;p&gt;Ayala won’t be alone at &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/inter-miami&quot;&gt;Inter Miami&lt;/a&gt;, as he joins a long list of Argentines on the roster: &lt;strong&gt;Lionel Messi, Rodrigo De Paul, Gonzalo Lujan, Tomás Aviles, Oscar Ustari, Mateo Silvetti&lt;/strong&gt;, and &lt;strong&gt;Facundo Mura&lt;/strong&gt; are the compatriots who will welcome the midfielder to Fort Lauderdale.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Far from being complacent after winning their first MLS Cup, the front office quickly got to work before the start of the preseason to reinforce the squad. &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/lionel-messi-gains-a-new-argentine-teammate-as-inter-miami-confirm-their-first-2026-signing&quot;&gt;Inter Miami confirmed Facundo Mura as the first signing of 2026&lt;/a&gt; to cover the right-back position left vacant by &lt;strong&gt;Marcelo Weigandt&lt;/strong&gt; following his return to Boca Juniors.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;The Herons’ goal could also have a new owner, as &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/lionel-messis-inter-miami-announce-stellar-signing-who-aspires-to-play-in-2026-world-cup&quot;&gt;Inter Miami confirmed a stellar signing who aspires to play in the 2026 World Cup&lt;/a&gt; with the &lt;strong&gt;USMNT&lt;/strong&gt;. This is Canadian goalkeeper &lt;strong&gt;Dayne St. Clair&lt;/strong&gt;, who had an excellent season with Minnesota United that earned him the &lt;strong&gt;2025 MLS Goalkeeper of the Year&lt;/strong&gt; award.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;To bolster the defense, &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/inter-miami-officially-sign-brazilian-teammate-for-lionel-messi-in-2026&quot;&gt;Inter Miami announced the signing of a Brazilian&lt;/a&gt; with previous MLS experience. This is &lt;strong&gt;Micael&lt;/strong&gt;, who arrived from Palmeiras after a strong stint with the Houston Dynamo, where he made &lt;strong&gt;80 appearances&lt;/strong&gt; and scored &lt;strong&gt;three goals&lt;/strong&gt; across all competitions over two seasons and won the &lt;strong&gt;2023 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Morocco&lt;/strong&gt; did not disappoint their home crowd at the Prince Moulay Abdellah Stadium, comfortably defeating &lt;strong&gt;Cameroon&lt;/strong&gt; 2-0 in the &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/afcon&quot;&gt;AFCON&lt;/a&gt; &lt;strong&gt;2025 quarterfinals&lt;/strong&gt;. With this result, the Atlas Lions advanced to the semifinals, where they will face the winner of the match between Algeria and Nigeria.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;Under the pressure of being the host nation, &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/morocco&quot;&gt;Morocco&lt;/a&gt; faced no major difficulties during the match, appearing comfortable from start to finish. The first goal came in the 26th minute of the first half, when Brahim Diaz deflected the ball following a header from El Kaabi to give his team the lead.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cameroon&quot;&gt;Cameroon&lt;/a&gt; failed to create almost any truly dangerous situations for their opponent, who took advantage in the second half to extend the lead. Following a corner kick in the 73rd minute, Ismael Saibari was left unmarked and sealed the match for Morocco with a powerful shot.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;With the scoreboard in their favor and the match decided, Morocco focused on solid defending, preventing Cameroon from creating any threats. The host nation will now face either Nigeria or Algeria on January 14, where they will seek a spot in the grand final.&lt;/p&gt;

Kofane isn't worried about Morocco's huge fanbase

As the tournament host, Morocco enjoy massive fan support at every match. However, Cameroonian forward Christian Kofane remains unfazed by the atmosphere.
"All of us players are used to pressure. Playing in the Bundesliga, I’ve faced very intense crowds, like Borussia Dortmund’s, so I know how to handle myself in that environment. We know how Morocco plays and we have prepared for it. We will do what we know how to do," the striker noted during a press conference.

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/wrexham&quot;&gt;Wrexham&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; host &lt;strong&gt;Nottingham Forest&lt;/strong&gt; at the Racecourse Ground for the third round of the &lt;strong&gt;2025-26 FA Cup&lt;/strong&gt;, where they will look to pull off an upset and knock the Premier League side out of the prestigious tournament.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;After achieving promotion to the EFL Championship for the first time in their history, Wrexham are enjoying a solid season. Through 26 matches, they sit &lt;strong&gt;ninth&lt;/strong&gt; in the table with &lt;strong&gt;40 points&lt;/strong&gt; and are currently on a hot streak of &lt;strong&gt;four consecutive victories.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;On the &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/nottingham-forest&quot;&gt;Nottingham Forest&lt;/a&gt; side, unlike the previous season, they currently sit in &lt;strong&gt;17th place&lt;/strong&gt;, battling at the bottom of the table to avoid relegation to the EFL Championship. Sean Dyche’s squad has earned &lt;strong&gt;21 points&lt;/strong&gt; through 21 matches, managing only six wins and three draws while suffering &lt;strong&gt;12 defeats&lt;/strong&gt; so far this season.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;It is a major opportunity for Wrexham, a team that has proven its quality across every division it has played in, achieving rapid promotions in each. Now they face a Premier League opponent that they do not view as an impossible rival to overcome.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;figure class=&quot;wp-block-image size-full&quot;&gt;&lt;figure class=&quot;image&quot;&gt;&lt;img loading=&quot;lazy&quot; width=&quot;1920&quot; height=&quot;1080&quot; src=&quot;https://media.bolavip.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/01/09104431/wrexham-smith-1920x1080.webp&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;wp-image-559060&quot;&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;&lt;figcaption&gt; Sam Smith of Wrexham celebrates a goal. (Getty Images)&lt;/figcaption&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;



&lt;h2&gt;What happens if Wrexham win vs Nottingham Forest?&lt;/h2&gt;



&lt;p&gt;If Wrexham manage to pull off an upset against Nottingham Forest at the Racecourse Ground, the side managed by Phil Parkinson will advance to the &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/fa-cup&quot;&gt;FA Cup&lt;/a&gt; fourth round&lt;/strong&gt;, which is set to take place starting &lt;strong&gt;February 13&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;


        &lt;div class=&quot;wp_fsn_relatedlinks&quot; id=&quot;BUS#/soccer/fifa-considers-implementing-a-revolutionary-rule-ahead-of-2026-world-cup&quot;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;


&lt;h2&gt;What happens if Wrexham and Nottingham Forest tie?&lt;/h2&gt;



&lt;p&gt;The FA opted to follow the rule imposed last edition, where in the event of a draw &lt;strong&gt;there will be no replay match&lt;/strong&gt; as happened in years past. In case of a tie, the encounter will have &lt;strong&gt;two 15-minute periods&lt;/strong&gt; of extra time, and if the draw persists through that period, the winner will be decided by a &lt;strong&gt;penalty shootout&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;h2&gt;What happens if Wrexham lose vs Nottingham Forest?&lt;/h2&gt;



&lt;p&gt;If Nottingham Forest secure a victory against the EFL Championship side at the Racecourse Ground, it will be Sean Dyche’s squad that advances to the fourth round of the FA Cup.&lt;/p&gt;

What happens if Wrexham win, tie or lose vs Nottingham Forest today in 2025-26 FA Cup? - Bolavip US

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Morocco&lt;/strong&gt; face &lt;strong&gt;Cameroon&lt;/strong&gt; in the &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/afcon&quot;&gt;AFCON&lt;/a&gt; 2025&lt;/strong&gt; quarterfinals in what promises to be one of the tournament’s greatest matches. With a spot in the semifinals at stake, the host nation aims to finish among the top four teams in the competition.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/morocco&quot;&gt;Morocco&lt;/a&gt; successfully qualified first in Group A, &lt;strong&gt;remaining undefeated&lt;/strong&gt; after collecting two wins and a draw. In the round of 16, Walid Regragui’s team defeated Tanzania 1-0 with a goal from Brahim Diaz to secure their place among the best eight teams in the tournament.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;On &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cameroon&quot;&gt;Cameroon&lt;/a&gt;‘s side, the &lt;em&gt;Indomitable Lions&lt;/em&gt; secured qualification as runners-up in Group F, finishing with the same points as Ivory Coast but with a lower goal difference. &lt;strong&gt;They also arrive undefeated&lt;/strong&gt; after two wins and a draw in the group stage, followed by a 2-1 victory against South Africa in the round of 16 to reach this stage.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;h2&gt;What happens if Morocco win vs Cameroon?&lt;/h2&gt;



&lt;p&gt;If Morocco defeat Cameroon today, they will advance directly to the &lt;strong&gt;semifinals&lt;/strong&gt;. The &lt;em&gt;Atlas Lions&lt;/em&gt; would then face the winner of the &lt;strong&gt;Nigeria vs Algeria&lt;/strong&gt; match on &lt;strong&gt;Wednesday, January 14&lt;/strong&gt;. This would keep their dreams alive for a second continental title on home soil.&lt;/p&gt;

(@EnMaroc)&lt;/figcaption&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;



&lt;h2&gt;What happens if Morocco and Cameroon tie?&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Should the match remain tied at the end of regulation, it will move into &lt;strong&gt;two 15-minute periods of extra time&lt;/strong&gt;. If the deadlock persists after 120 minutes of play, a &lt;strong&gt;penalty shootout&lt;/strong&gt; will determine which team punches their ticket to the semifinals.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;h2&gt;What happens if Morocco lose vs Cameroon?&lt;/h2&gt;



&lt;p&gt;If Morocco lose to Cameroon today, &lt;strong&gt;their tournament run end here&lt;/strong&gt;. The Indomitable Lions would instead advance to the semifinal to face either Nigeria or Algeria.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lionel-messi&quot;&gt;Lionel Messi&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt;’s Argentina&lt;/strong&gt; schedule leading up to the &lt;strong&gt;2026 World Cup&lt;/strong&gt; is beginning to take shape. On &lt;strong&gt;Friday, March 27&lt;/strong&gt;, they will face &lt;strong&gt;Spain&lt;/strong&gt; in the &lt;strong&gt;Finalissima&lt;/strong&gt; at the Lusail Iconic Stadium in Doha. Meanwhile, on &lt;strong&gt;Monday the 30th&lt;/strong&gt; or &lt;strong&gt;Tuesday the 31st&lt;/strong&gt;, to make the most of their stay in the Middle Eastern country, they would be taking on &lt;strong&gt;Qatar&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;In June, during the FIFA window running from the &lt;strong&gt;1st&lt;/strong&gt; to the &lt;strong&gt;9th&lt;/strong&gt; (two days before the opening match between &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/mexico&quot;&gt;Mexico&lt;/a&gt; and South Africa at the Estadio Azteca), the squad led by Lionel Scaloni would be facing &lt;strong&gt;Mexico&lt;/strong&gt; first and then &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/honduras&quot;&gt;Honduras&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; in the United States.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;According to reports from &lt;em&gt;TyC Sports&lt;/em&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/argentina&quot;&gt;Argentina&lt;/a&gt; would clash with Mexico in &lt;strong&gt;Las Vegas&lt;/strong&gt;, while the match against Honduras would take place at Hard Rock Stadium in &lt;strong&gt;Miami&lt;/strong&gt;. Afterward, they would head to &lt;strong&gt;Kansas City&lt;/strong&gt;, where they will play Algeria on June 16 for Matchday 1 of Group J in the 2026 World Cup.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;Additionally, the AFA’s current plan for Lionel Scaloni’s side is to remain based in Kansas throughout &lt;strong&gt;the entire Group Stage&lt;/strong&gt;. Consequently, they would only travel to &lt;strong&gt;Dallas&lt;/strong&gt; for their matches against Austria on Monday, June 22, and Jordan on Tuesday the 27th of the same month.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;



&lt;p&gt;Subsequently, if the &lt;em&gt;Albiceleste’s&lt;/em&gt; results go as expected, they will have to visit &lt;strong&gt;Miami&lt;/strong&gt; for the &lt;strong&gt;Round of 32&lt;/strong&gt; matchup at Hard Rock Stadium against the runner-up of &lt;strong&gt;Group H&lt;/strong&gt;, which is comprised of Spain, Uruguay, Saudi Arabia, and Cape Verde.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;h2&gt;FIFA to revamp international calendar&lt;/h2&gt;


        &lt;div class=&quot;wp_fsn_relatedlinks&quot; id=&quot;BUS#/soccer/thomas-muller-makes-bold-prediction-about-lionel-messi-and-argentina-in-the-2026-world-cup&quot;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

        

        


&lt;p&gt;FIFA will change the international match calendar format following the 2026 &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/topic/world-cup&quot;&gt;World Cup&lt;/a&gt;, where the schedule will now feature at least one window lasting &lt;strong&gt;16 days&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;In this way, national teams will be able to play up to a maximum of &lt;strong&gt;four matches&lt;/strong&gt;, instead of two as has been the case until now. The first time this situation will occur will be between&lt;strong&gt; September 21&lt;/strong&gt; and &lt;strong&gt;October 6&lt;/strong&gt; of next year.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;This change is designed to benefit player welfare by reducing the number of long-haul flights required during the early stages of the European and South American seasons. The &lt;strong&gt;November and March windows&lt;/strong&gt; are expected to remain in the traditional &lt;strong&gt;two-match&lt;/strong&gt;, nine-day format.&lt;/p&gt;
