Belgium were held to a 0-0 draw by Iran, leaving Rudi Garcia’s side still searching for their first World Cup win. Nathan Ngoy was sent off in the second half, while Thibaut Courtois made key saves to protect a point.

Nicolas Jackson is reportedly planning to return to Chelsea and fight for his place under new manager Xabi Alonso. Bayern Munich have decided not to trigger their £70m option after his loan spell in Germany.

Jackson wants Alonso to assess him before considering a move later in the window. Juventus, Napoli and Newcastle have been linked, but Chelsea’s crowded attack and lack of European football could still limit his minutes.

Liverpool have rejected a verbal €25m offer from Inter Milan for Curtis Jones. The bid fell well below Liverpool’s £35m valuation, with the club unwilling to approve a cut-price exit for the homegrown midfielder.

Inter had also explored Jones in January, including a loan-to-buy proposal that Liverpool rejected. With one year left on his contract, Jones remains a target, but Liverpool’s stance suggests they expect a stronger offer before negotiating.

Japan beat Tunisia 4-0 in Monterrey to move into a strong Group F position and eliminate Tunisia from the World Cup. Daichi Kamada scored early from Keito Nakamura’s low cross as Hajime Moriyasu’s side controlled the match without Takefusa Kubo.

The quick opener forced Tunisia to chase the game and left Japan comfortable in possession and transitions. With the win, Japan moved one point ahead of Sweden, meaning a draw in their final group game would be enough to progress.
