A veteran of both the high school and collegiate hoops scene, Reno succeeded longtime skipper Ron Rowe last winter and guided the Hornets to a stellar season.

Raphinha didn't bother to sugarcoat his words. On the eve of a high-stakes clash against Chelsea, the FC Barcelona winger finally let loose the frustration he'd bottled up for so long, addressing the media head-on.

Yes, I felt undervalued," he declared, visibly affected by a season where, in his view, individual accolades failed to reflect his true level. The Brazilian nonetheless fully accepts the team's collective responsibility: "As a team, we failed in the Champions League. I don't control individual awards." But he emphatically stands by the quality of his 2024-2025 campaign, which…...
