The Bianconeri are reportedly scouring the Premier League for a high-profile replacement, with Liverpool’s Alisson Becker emerging as a shock target alongside Tottenham’s Guglielmo Vicario. While Di Gregorio arrived from Monza with high expectations, a nightmare run of form has left the Old Lady’s hierarchy convinced that a world-class upgrade is required to restore the club's traditional defensive solidity.

The fallout from Leeds United’s painful slide out of the Premier League continues to simmer, as Jesse Marsch has launched a scathing rebuttal to claims made by his successor, Sam Allardyce. The American coach, who was tasked with the unenviable job of following the iconic Marcelo Bielsa at Elland Road, has found himself at the centre of a war of words regarding the physical state of the squad during the club's ill-fated 2022-23 campaign. While the Whites eventually succumbed to the drop, the debate over who is to blame for the erosion of Bielsa’s high-intensity blueprint has now reached a boiling point on social media.

Manchester United boss Michael Carrick has moved to clarify the fitness status of Lisandro Martinez after the defensive kingpin was a shock omission from the squad that travelled to face Everton on Monday.

He had no desire to meet up with a familiar face from Camp Nou.

Ex-USMNT and MLS star Tab Ramos has told GOAL that a stunning transfer which unites Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi at Inter Miami could happen, but has explained why said switch could become a “mess”.

Barcelona are reportedly preparing to shake the foundations of the European transfer market as they ready themselves for a monumental swoop.

Barcelona have majorly bolstered their youth ranks after winning a high-stakes race to secure the signature of Norwich City starlet Ajay Tavares. The 16-year-old winger, who has been widely regarded as one of the most clinical prospects in the English academy system, has officially traded Carrow Road for Catalonia.

There were so many big names to watch at last year's Copa America Femenina. Marta's emergence out of international retirement was the major storyline going into the tournament, where stars such as Real Madrid's Linda Caicedo, Chelsea's Mayra Ramirez and Manchester City's Kerolin were also primed to shine. But these events also provide the platform for new names to rise to the fore, and that is exactly what happened with a 17-year-old sensation from Paraguay by the name of Claudia Martinez.

After winning all of the last six Women's Super League titles in succession, it's not been an easy season so far for Chelsea.

But on Sunday, it felt like a boost of hope was injected into their season, by none other than Lauren James.
