LaLiga, officially known as LaLiga EA Sports for sponsorship reasons, is the top professional football league in Spain, featuring 20 clubs competing annually from August to May. Founded in 1929, it is one of the world’s most prestigious leagues, renowned for its technical quality, competitive balance, and global stars like Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, and Diego Maradona. Each team plays 38 matches, with the champion earning the title and qualification for European competitions, while the bottom three teams face relegation to Segunda División. LaLiga’s intense rivalries, such as El Clásico between Real Madrid and Barcelona, and its high-scoring, skillful play make it a favorite among football fans worldwide.

Ibrahima Konate has jokingly claimed that Kylian Mbappe calls him frequently to convince him to follow in Trent Alexander-Arnold's footsteps and join Real Madrid next summer.

Marcus Rashford’s Barcelona future has been thrown into doubt by reports suggesting the club want to cut short his loan and send him back to Manchester United – but respected journalist Guillem Balague has now dismissed those claims.

Barcelona are weighing up a sensational move for Harry Kane in 2026, with reports in Spain suggesting the Bayern Munich striker could be available for as little as €40 million (£35m). Deco considers the England captain an “ideal option” to replace Robert Lewandowski, whose contract expires that summer, making the low-cost swoop a realistic possibility.
Kylian Mbappe has revealed that he could have taken a very different path in his career, with the Real Madrid forward admitting that Bayern Munich, Borussia Dortmund and RB Leipzig all made attempts to sign him while he was still at Monaco. The French superstar, who eventually joined Paris Saint-Germain in 2017, has now reflected on those early approaches.
Despite admitting Liverpool are favourites, Kylian Mbappe believes Arsenal will go one step further this season and claim the Premier League title.
