Mauro Icardi remains out of Inter's lineup against Cagliari as he renegotiates his contract.

He will be replaced by 19-year-old Facundo Colidio.

Colidio, who joined from Boca Juniors in 2017, scored 5 goals in the UEFA Youth League.

Jozy Altidore is finalizing a contract extension with Toronto FC through 2022.

His current deal is set to expire at the end of this season.

With Toronto losing the likes of Sebastian Giovinco and Victor Vasquez to overseas clubs this offseason, the Reds were keen to secure the services of Altidore.

Leicester City will name Brendan Rodgers as manager within the next day.

Rodgers was convinced of immediately quitting as manager of Celtic.

Leicester had identified Rodgers as their No 1 target to replace Claude Puel several months ago.

Rodgers previously managed in the Premier League with Liverpool and Swansea City.

Rodgers will earn approximately £5 million per year.

Jose Mourinho would like to return to managing this summer.

Mourinho was fired by Manchester United in December.

"In this short phase of my life, which I hope is only until June, I'm more concerned about what others would do than what I would do," said Mourinho.

Two of Mourinho's previous clubs, Chelsea and Real Madrid, both have uncertain managerial situations.

Leicester City have fired Claude Puel as manager and will seek a deal with Brendan Rodgers as his successor.

Rodgers is currently manager of Celtic.

Leicester could also consider Rafael Benítez, whose contract at Newcastle expires in June.

Leicester has been planning to pursue Rodgers for months.

“The club would like to thank Claude for his efforts in leading the team during his 16 months in the role and wish him well in his future career,” Leicester said. “Assistant manager Jacky Bonnevay also departs with the club’s best wishes.

“First-team coaches Mike Stowell and Adam Sadler, supported by the club’s established backroom staff, will assume responsibility for the senior squad while the club begins the process of appointing a new manager.”

Chelsea will consider approaching Steve Holland to become interim manager if they fire Maurizio Sarri over the next week.

Sarri is seven months into his three-year contract and in danger of being fired.

Holland is currently assistant manager of England, taking the job in 2017 after an eight-year tenure with Chelsea.

Chelsea has received a two-transfer window ban after FIFA found them guilty of a serious and systemic breach of rules dealing with foreign players under the age of 18.

The Guardian revealed last month that Fifa had looked into more than 100 player cases at Chelsea and it emerged on Friday they had charged them with 92 breaches of article 19 alone.

Chelsea ultimately have the right to appeal to the court of arbitration for sport (Cas). 

Chelsea was facing an uncertain short-term with Eden Hazard angling for a transfer to Real Madrid.

Willian, Pedro and Callum Hudson-Odoi are also out of contract at the end of next season. 

Maurizio Sarri is unsure about his future as manager of Chelsea.

Sarri's future could be decided by Chelsea's next two matches: against Malmo in the Europa League and Manchester City in the Carabao Cup final.

"I have to think that I will be the manager of Chelsea for a long time, otherwise I cannot work," Sarri said. "I am not sure [it will work], but I have to think this. I have to work, and I want to work with a long-term target."

Key to supporter frustration with Sarri has been his reluctance to move away from his preferred 4-3-3.

"The system is a false problem," he insisted. "I know very well that, when we lose, [they say] I have to put a striker on the pitch. When we win, I have to put a defender on the pitch. But I want to see the football in another way."

Agent fees are delaying a contract extension between Manchester United and David de Gea.

United is hoping to finalize an extension with De Gea worth £350,000 per week over five years. The deal will be worth more than £90 million ($118 million) over five years.

De Gea, represented by Portuguese firm GestiFute, has 18 months to run on his contract after United triggered a one-year extension option in November that will keep him at the club until 2020.

Chelsea are not currently considering firing Maurizio Sarri.

Chelsea currently are sixth in the Premier League.

With qualification for the Champions League the primary objective for Chelsea, further setbacks in the Premier League or elimination from the Europa League could put Sarri's job at risk.

February will be a critical stretch for Sarri.
