Bukayo Saka BMO HIC 2-3

Bukayo Saka exclusive: 'When it's your time, it's your time'

  1. Liverpool will regret ignoring Alonso to stick with Slot

    For Liverpool's bitterly frustrated fans, watching Chelsea end a six-game losing streak by claiming a thoroughly deserved point at Anfield on Saturday was bad enough. However, Monday's news that the Blues are now exploring a deal to appoint Xabi Alonso as their next permanent boss has come as an even bigger blow to a set of supporters struggling to see any light at the end of the tunnel right now.

  2. 🎥 | Saka reacts to 'beautiful' letter sent by Arsenal fan

    In a moving and poignant moment at the beginning of the latest episode of the Beast Mode On Podcast, Bukayo Saka is invited to read out a special letter sent directly to him by a devoted Arsenal supporter. Watch as the Gunners winger offers his heartfelt thanks to the fan, with the note demonstrating just how much the England international means to the north London club's fanbase.

  3. Harvey Elliott & the worst transfer of the EPL season

    Harvey Elliott is ineligible to play for Aston Villa against parent club Liverpool on Friday night. But Unai Emery wouldn't have picked him anyway. And not to save him for next week's Europa League final against Freiburg. Elliott hasn't seen a single minute of game time since March because he's one appearance away from triggering the clause in his loan agreement that would oblige Villa to buy him for £35 million ($46m) - and they've absolutely no intention of allowing that to happen.

  4. WSL Signing of the Season: GOAL's top 10 - ranked

    Transfers in women's football have gone crazy in the last 18 months. It was in January of last year that Naomi Girma became the first million-dollar player in the sport and yet she is now already only the sixth most-expensive women's player of all time, with seven-figure fees suddenly becoming more and more frequent as the game grows.

  5. Eduardo Conceicao: The new Estevao

    At Palmeiras, Endrick, Estevao, Luis Gulherme, Vitor Reis and Luighi became known as 'The Billion Generation' - a reference to the colossal amount of money four prodigiously gifted players were expected to generate for the Brazil club. However, it now feels as if another name should be added to that illustrious list of outstanding academy products, that of Eduardo Conceicao.

  6. Desperate Madrid would be MAD to reappoint Mourinho

    Real Madrid are in trouble. And when Real Madrid are in trouble, Florentino Perez always asks those around him, "Is there anything to be said for bringing back Jose Mourinho?" Why? Because hiring Mourinho worked once before. Kind of. Back in 2010, Madrid had been put in an unbearable position by Barcelona. They weren't just being beaten by their most hated rivals, they were being embarrassed by them. So, Perez turned to Mourinho, the self-anointed 'Special One' who had just upset Pep Guardiola's pass-masters - in every sense - on his way to winning a European Cup with Inter.

  7. Arsenal's season-defining moments will deliver long-awaited EPL title

    The history of football is littered with fateful moments that convince you a certain outcome is a foregone conclusion, and we can now add Arsenal's seismic victory over West Ham to that long list. The Gunners required a late goal and probably the most contentious Premier League VAR review of all time to battle past the relegation-threatened Hammers in a ridiculously dramatic conclusion to the London derby. Surely, SURELY it is going to be their year?!

  8. Saka crowns Dowman as Arsenal's top academy talent

    Arsenal forward Bukayo Saka considers Max Dowman to be the brightest star emerging from the Gunners' fabled Hale End academy system. The England international has also picked out his personal favourite goal from a distinguished career in north London and told Adebayo Akinfenwa of the best advice he ever received from the coaches that he has worked under.

  9. LEGACY: Nagelsmann's mission to harness Germany's World Cup DNA

Superstars of the future

  1. Why Chelsea, PSG & more want Werder's teen sensation

    A year ago, Karim Coulibaly hadn't even made his first-team debut for Werder Bremen. Fast-forward 12 months, though, and the centre-back could be on course for a record-breaking transfer away from the Bundesliga side at the age of 18. The Germany youth international has enjoyed a breakthrough season at Weserstadion, putting some of Europe's top clubs on notice, and Werder are seemingly prepared to cash-in already.

  2. Why Barca, Bayern & Chelsea want Twente's towering teen

    Be it double World Cup finalist Ruud Krol, the marauding Ronald Koeman, total football icon Ruud Gullit or serial winner Virgil van Dijk, the Dutch have a fine tradition of producing defenders who have made their mark on the game. And there is a new kid on the block that every top club wants to get their hands on: step forward FC Twente's teenage star centre-back Ruud Nijstad.

Hall of Fame

  1. Shevchenko social

    Hall of Fame: How Shevchenko became a Milan legend

    For a particular generation of AC Milan fans, those who grew up in the early 2000s, one name stands out above any other. Andriy Shevchenko combined technical skill with a ruthlessness in front of goal that made him one of the best strikers the game has ever seen, a Ballon d'Or winner and a worthy entrant into GOAL's Hall of Fame...

  2. Hall of Fame: How Platini became 'The King'

    Michel Platini is undoubtedly one of the greatest footballers of all time. Playmaker, assister, goal-scorer: Platini was a complete player, capable of leaving an indelible mark on world football between the late 1970s and mid-1980s. He was the perfect No.10, embodying the true essence of the shirt number both then and now.

  3. Hall of fame Roberto Carlos

    Hall of Fame: Roberto Carlos - the greatest full-back in history

    Modernising the role of a full-back 30 years ago, Roberto Carlos undoubtedly set the benchmark. A tactical genius and a physical specimen, the Real Madrid and Brazil legend won countless trophies at club and international level, contributing bucket loads of goals and assists. No one in the past, present or future can ever claim to be his equal - he was that good.

  4. Hall of Fame: Why Beckham is such an underrated player

    One of the best midfielders of his era, perhaps the greatest crosser of a football ever and a free-kick taker to rival the best the game has ever produced, David Beckham was a special player to say the least. And yet due to his off-field impact, one of the sport's great champions of the past 30 years is generally forgotten when it comes to referencing the true legends of the game.

But according to one member of the Bayern team, he actually won that final. "Actually, I'm a Champions League winner," claims the latest member of GOAL's Rebel United, Mario Basler.
