Aaron Ramsey admitted&nbsp;he was "very emotional" to be leaving Arsenal for&nbsp;Juventus&nbsp;after 11 years with the Premier League club. Ramsey waved goodbye to the Gunners fans following Sunday's 1-1 Premier League draw at home to&nbsp;Brighton. That result left Arsenal's hopes of finishing in the top four hanging by a thread, although they would qualify for the&nbsp;Champions League&nbsp;if they won&nbsp;the&nbsp;Europa League. <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/news/ramsey-very-emotional-as-he-bids-arsenal-farewell/1iy9fczzbjy0t16nr9ig8e5lq6" target="_blank">Read more here!</a>

Chelsea&nbsp;manager Maurizio Sarri played down the significance of Gary Cahill's comments on Sunday following an extraordinary attack from the former&nbsp;Englanddefender.&nbsp; Cahill came off the bench in the 88th minute on Sunday in his probable farewell to the Stamford Bridge faithful, playing&nbsp;the final moments of his team's 3-0 defeat of&nbsp;Watford.&nbsp; It was his eighth appearance in all competitions during a frustrating 2018-19 season which has seen him relegated to the sidelines, while in the Premier League he has managed just two cameos off the bench.&nbsp; <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/news/its-not-important-sarri-brushes-off-cahill-criticisms-after/1gztay4od9xc13rxvc9mlovbp" target="_blank">Read more here!</a>

Gary Neville has torn into&nbsp;Manchester United&nbsp;after their 1-1 draw at Huddersfield on Sunday, saying Ole Gunnar Solskjaer must "dismantle" the squad to turn the situation around. The Red Devils slipped up against bottom of the league and already relegated Huddersfield as an Isaac&nbsp;Mbenza goal in the second half cancelled out Scott McTominay's eighth-minute opener. The result leaves United fifth in the Premier League and four points behind&nbsp;Chelsea, who occupy the final&nbsp;Champions League&nbsp;qualification spot. With just one game left, the Red Devils will have to make do with&nbsp;Europa League&nbsp;football next term. <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/news/this-isnt-a-team-at-all-neville-tears-into-man-utd-after/1ape9fiseqvcu1x7hyrfyjrhiz" target="_blank">Read more here!</a>

Nice&nbsp;star Allan&nbsp;Saint-Maximin has suggested he is ready to leave the Ligue 1 side this summer. The 22-year-old attacker joined Nice in 2017 but has just over a year left on his contract with the club. AC Milan tried to snap the France Under 21 international up in January but were knocked back. This summer, he may be more willing to join the San Siro outfit, telling&nbsp;Gazzetta TV: "I certainly feel ready to move up and go to a more prestigious team, but for now I still feel good in Nice.&nbsp;It's up to me to continue to have these performances, helping my team as much as possible and then we'll see at the end of the season.&nbsp; "Milan is definitely a great club. I had the opportunity to go to Milan in the market winter but did not go through. We will see how it goes this summer."

Paris Saint-Germain, Chelsea and Atletico Madrid are on the trail of Nice right-back Youcef Atal.&nbsp; The 22-year-old Algeria international has scored six goals in Ligue 1 this season and impressed against PSG in Saturday's 1-1 draw. But that was not the first time he caught the capital club's attention, as they tried to lure him away in November, according to&nbsp;<a href="http://www.leparisien.fr/sports/football/psg/psg-nice-atal-un-futur-crack-eblouit-le-parc-04-05-2019-8065737.php" target="_blank">Le Parisien</a>, while the English and Spanish giants are also eyeing him up.

Franck Ribery has confirmed he will leave Bayern Munich at the end of the season. The Bundesliga giants were already set to lose veteran winger Arjen Robben this summer, but now the other half of the 'Robbery' partnership will also depart. "When I came to Bayern, it was a dream come true. It won't be easy to say goodbye, but we must never forget what we've achieved together," the <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/news/ribery-to-leave-bayern-at-the-end-of-the-season/1ayvpoqddriak1pyrvnsmxkblh" target="_blank">French attacker said as he announced the end of his time in Munich</a>. "I won more than 20 trophies and, of course, I hope we can add another Bundesliga title and the DFB-Pokal at the end of this season. That would be great for me personally and my family and, of course, for the fans too."

Manchester United will be offered the chance to sign Real Madrid goalkeeper Keylor Navas, potentially smoothing the way for David De Gea to move to the Bernabeu, <a href="https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2019/05/04/manchester-united-offered-chance-sign-keylor-navas-real-madrid/" target="_blank">according to the Telegraph</a>. The 32-year-old Costa Rican has lost his place in the Real goal to Thibaut Cortois&nbsp;this season and his transfer&nbsp;could ease the gears of a move for the Spain number one. United have also been heavily linked with Atletico Madrid goalkeeper and Slovenia international Jan Oblak.&nbsp;
