Cristiano Ronaldo has offered his clearest indication yet that he could retire from professional football at the end of the current seasonSpeaking in an exclusive interview published ahead of his wedding to Georgina Rodríguez the 41-year-old stated he wants to leave a spectacular legacyThe five-time Ballon d'Or winner confirmed he has already mapped out his post-football life including spending time with family and playing padel

Cristiano Ronaldo has offered his clearest indication yet that his legendary playing career is drawing to a close, declaring that the current campaign is "probably my last year of football." In an interview published with Vogue, the 41-year-old Al-Nassr forward opened up about his timeline and his desire to exit on a high note.

Contracted with Saudi Pro League club Al-Nassr, the Portuguese icon acknowledged that while stepping away will be a monumental change after 25 years of professional competition, he has already begun preparing for his transition away from the pitch. Ronaldo reflected on a career spanning Sporting CP, Manchester United, Real Madrid, Juventus, and Al-Nassr, noting that his future beyond the sport is fully mapped out.

Addressing the potential void created by walking away from competitive play, Ronaldo revealed plans to pivot toward family, travel, and personal hobbies like playing and watching padel. The candid admission follows Portugal's run at the 2026 World Cup and comes alongside recent reflections on longevity from long-time rival Lionel Messi. Ronaldo told Vogue, "This is probably my last year of football, and I want to leave a spectacular legacy." He added, "I have my future all mapped out. I have so many things to keep me busy that to tell you just one thing is hard. Because football could leave a big hole, you have to fill your time in various ways, not just one. Have more fun, travel more, watch and play padel, which I really like, and continue to enjoy what I've earned - what we've earned. Because after all it's been 25 years with a lot of sacrifice."

While Ronaldo continues his campaign with Al-Nassr for the 2026-27 season, the forward remains focused on cementing his legacy across his final appearances on the pitch.

Islam Makhachev extended his historic winning streak to 17 consecutive fights at UFC 330 in PhiladelphiaThe pound-for-pound leader defeated Ian Machado Garry via unanimous decision with scores of 49-46 49-46 and 48-47Makhachev officially broke Anderson Silva's 13-year-old record for the longest win streak in UFC history

UFC hosted UFC 330 at the Xfinity Mobile Arena in Philadelphia, delivering a 12-bout fight card highlighted by two successful title defenses. The main event saw welterweight champion Islam Makhachev defend his belt against challenger Ian Machado Garry via unanimous decision. The 170-pound main event saw Makhachev earn official judges' scores of 49-46, 49-46, and 48-47 to secure his 17th consecutive Octagon victory.

Despite facing heavy opposition and striking pressure on the feet from Machado Garry, Makhachev turned the tide in the second round with a brutal head kick that stunned the Irishman. The champion maintained authority across the remaining rounds to lock up his first official welterweight title defense.

The five-round contest saw the Dagestani champion utilize relentless wrestling alongside opportunistic striking against his taller Irish opponent. In the second round, Makhachev gained crucial momentum by landing a heavy head kick knockdown that floored Garry. Despite surrendering seven total takedowns throughout the night, Garry fought well off the cage wall, enjoying his best momentum in the third round by stuffing takedown attempts and responding with heavy body kicks and head kick combinations before landing short shots in the clinch during the fourth.

Makhachev executed a clinical fifth-round strategy to lock up the decision win. Shooting into Garry’s legs within the opening 90 seconds of the final frame, the champion dragged his opponent back to the mat and secured a body triangle from back control to dominate the remaining minutes.

With the victory, the 34-year-old fighter officially surpassed middleweight legend Anderson Silva’s 16-fight winning streak, a record that stood untouched for over 13 years. The victory marks Makhachev’s first successful defense of the welterweight championship following his initial title win at UFC 322.

The card featured additional major storylines across the lineup, including women's strawweight champion Mackenzie Dern defending her title via unanimous decision against Gillian Robertson. Middleweight Dustin Stoltzfus pulled off a massive upset as a 5-to-1 underdog with a second-round rear-naked choke over Mansur Abdul-Malik, while flyweight Charles Johnson delivered a Submission of the Year candidate by finishing Eduardo Chapolin with a rare Scottish Twister. Meanwhile, Philadelphia native Jeremiah Wells registered one of the largest underdog comebacks in UFC history, putting Myktybek Orolbai to sleep with a third-round ninja choke.

Paris Saint-Germain has officially completed the signing of World Cup winner Ferran Torres from FC Barcelona. The deal brings the 26-year-old Spanish forward to the reigning European champions for a total package of around €50 million EUR ($57.84 million USD).

The move sees Torres reunite with PSG head coach Luis Enrique, who previously managed the forward during his tenure with the Spanish national team. Torres requested the exit from Barcelona with one year remaining on his contract, following a campaign where he scored 21 goals in 49 appearances. Over his time at Camp Nou, the former Manchester City player secured seven trophies, including three LaLiga titles, one Copa del Rey, and three Spanish Super Cups.

PSG pursued the versatile attacker to bolster their frontline options after the departure of Gonçalo Ramos to AC Milan and Randal Kolo Muani’s permanent transfer to Juventus. Capable of playing across the front line and primarily utilized as a central striker over the past two seasons, Torres joins the club directly following his winning goal performance in extra time against Argentina in the World Cup final.

Ferran Torres now joins Paris Saint-Germain ahead of the new season as the club prepares to defend its European title.

Am I the only one who can’t get enough of Khakis? The vintage-obsessed clothing brand from JKND Co. Ltd., the same Seoul-based creative group that brought us thisisneverthat, has been on a tear for a few seasons now. Beyond making some of the best washed and naturally aged military- and workwear-inspired garbs around, Khakis has racked up a string of banger collaborations with Merrell, New Balance, Reebok, and even nonnative. Its Seoul flagship has also quietly become a destination of its own, hosting several pop-ups with everyone, one of Japan’s latest understated, yet increasingly influential, fashion brands.

For Fall/Winter 2026, Khakis is sticking with what got it here in the first place, once again digging through decades of military, workwear, and outdoor references to create clothes that feel convincingly pulled from another era. Rather than reinventing the wheel, the brand continues to obsess over the details — the right fit, the right fabrication, and, perhaps most importantly, the right amount of wear.

I had the chance to speak with Creative Director Junhyung Seo during a trip to Seoul last fall, when he described Khakis as the adult version of thisisneverthat. It makes a lot of sense, considering Seo previously served as a designer at the latter. Where thisisneverthat leans into a more youthful street-meets-punk-meets-skate aesthetic, Khakis is for the shoppers who geek out over period-specific apparel. Maybe it’s your favorite style of polar fleece from decades ago, only in the color you always wished it came in. Or maybe it’s a red quilted down jacket that looks like something pulled from the catalog of a classic outdoor brand years ago.

That’s ultimately what makes Khakis special. The brand has an affinity for not only getting the reference just right, but also nailing the fit, fabrication, and natural wear that made the original worth obsessing over in the first place.

It’s an approach baked into the brand’s “Made to Last” and “Dead Gear” philosophies — “dead” in the sense of “deadstock.” In other words, if you want clothes that look like something you could’ve spent years hunting down at a thrift store, but didn’t because, one, it probably wouldn’t come in your size, or, two, you’d rather not deal with the pains of upkeep and extensive cleaning, you’ve found the right place. Expect deliveries from Khakis’ Fall/Winter 2026 collection to begin arriving at the brand’s online store, Seoul flagship, and HBX in the coming weeks.

Ask any normie on the street what signals the end of summer, and they’ll probably point to earlier sunsets or a change in temperature. But for those who wake up each morning thanking the fashion gods before throwing on their archival garbs and limited-edition sneakers, there’s a much clearer sign: Supreme’s seasonal Fall/Winter teaser.

Sure, summer is (almost) over, and soon enough, so are drinks on terraces with the homies. But fret not. At least there’s already a grail-worthy piece of outerwear to look forward to as temperatures begin to drop.

For Fall/Winter 2026, Supreme has teased what might be its most peak Box Logo design yet: a patchwork leather jacket stitched together from what appears to be Box Logos spanning the brand’s history. Among the designs worked into the jacket are some particularly recognizable iterations, including the Bandana, Skull Pile, Arabic, and even the Last Supper Box Logos.

It’s essentially a wearable history lesson in one of streetwear’s most recognizable graphics, piecing together decades of Supreme lore into a single leather jacket.

As with every Supreme seasonal teaser, there’s no official launch date just yet. Expect the full Fall/Winter 2026 lookbook and preview to arrive soon, followed by the collection’s first weekly drop.
