  1. Why Gyokeres failed to make the grade at Brighton

    Viktor Gyokeres' first season at Arsenal has been mixed, to put it kindly. Indeed, he only scored seven goals in his first 22 appearances across all competitions for the Gunners, which represented a poor return on the club's £63.5 million ($85m) investment in his services. Some felt the Swede was an awkward fit for Mikel Arteta's side, while others went as far as to label Gyokeres one of the worst signings in Premier League history.

  2. Flying Frimpong can lift Liverpool in EPL's top-five fight

    Twenty minutes - that's all Jeremie Frimpong needed to show Liverpool what they'd been missing in Saturday's Premier League clash with West Ham. The Reds were already 4-2 up when the Dutchman replaced Joe Gomez at right-back, but the game wasn't over. On the contrary, Valentin Castellanos had just pulled a goal back for the relegation-threatened visitors, who were causing Liverpool's defence all sorts of problems.

  3. Carrick is United's only choice in permanent manager hunt

    When Roy Keane claimed in January that Michael Carrick should not get the Manchester United job permanently even if he wins every game until the end of the season, it was easy to think that the hypothetical scenario he painted would never be tested. But the man who inherited the famous No.16 shirt from the polemical Irishman at Old Trafford and thus unwillingly became his sworn enemy is holding Keane to his word.

  4. Will '27 World Cup cycle be Wiegman's last Lionesses dance?

    Last month, when Lionesses boss Sarina Wiegman was asked if there was concern that her contract situation could prove to be a distraction for England ahead of the 2027 Women's World Cup, she was pretty bullish in her answer. "There is no distraction whatsoever," she responded. "Everyone is really focused on this qualification. I haven't heard anyone in my team or staff that has been occupied with that."

  5. LEGACY: How France learned resilience at the World Cup

    This is Legacy, GOAL’s feature and podcast series to mark the countdown to the 2026 World Cup. Each week, we explore the stories and the spirit behind the nations that define the world’s game. This week, we revisit one of international football’s most dramatic sagas: the rise, fall, and rebirth of Les Bleus. From Zinedine Zidane's headbutt in Berlin to Kylian Mbappe's hat-trick in Doha, France’s World Cup journey between 2006 and 2022 is a tale of collapse and resurrection; the story of a nation that turned shame into strength, and forged an identity where resilience became its greatest art.

  6. RANKED: Chelsea's most stupid of their TEN red cards

    Chelsea have plenty of issues to solve, but perhaps the most glaring right now is their lack of discipline. The lack of experienced heads within the youngest squad in the Premier League has been pointed to on a number of occasions during the BlueCo era, but nowhere is it more glaring than when it comes keeping a full compliment of players on the pitch at Stamford Bridge.

  7. Brits Abroad: Kane smashes more records in Klassiker win

    GOAL runs the rule over the British players earning a living away from their homeland, with plenty more stars deciding to leave their comfort zones in search of a better footballing life elsewhere. The Premier League is still obviously one of the world's most entertaining divisions and the Championship can prove fantastic for development, but there are more options out there.

Must-read opinion and expert analysis

  1. RANKED: How the Asian Cup & AFCON will effect WSL clubs

    The Women's Asian Cup began on March 1, kickstarting a month that was set to see two of the major tournaments in the women's game take place, with the Africa Cup of Nations to follow on March 17. Recent reports suggest the latter is, incredibly, set to be cancelled at the last minute, but the impact the Asian Cup will have on the continuing club competitions should still be fascinating, as teams across the women's game say goodbye to some of their best players for a few weeks.

  1. 'Not here to give advice to Arteta!' - Guardiola snaps back at reporter

    A nonplussed Pep Guardiola dismissed a question from a reporter that related to Mikel Arteta chasing his first Premier League title as a manager, insisting that he had not attended his pre-match press conference to offer advice to the Arsenal boss. Manchester City face Leeds on Saturday evening as they look to close the gap at the top of the table to two points, with the Gunners not in action until Sunday, when they host Chelsea.

  2. 🎥 | The Late Run with Ochocinco debuts with Bert Kreischer

    Chad Ochocinco Johnson and Rahimovic sit down with comedy legend Bert Kreischer for a conversation that goes everywhere: soccer culture in Florida, Messi mania in Miami, the World Cup 2026 “last dance” talk, and the comedy Mount Rushmore. Bert retells The Machine origin story, breaks down what makes a great comedian, and somehow ends up pledging to become a real soccer fan.

  3. 🎥 | Yamal to PSG?! It's Front Three's football transfer trades

    Would Barcelona consider selling Lamine Yamal in exchange for Achraf Hakimi, Nuno Mendes and Vitinha?! Is there a world where Real Madrid might consider ditching three of their star names for Erling Haaland? What about Declan Rice for Rodri AND Tijjani Reijnders? GOAL's Front Three debate a series of hypothetical football transfer trades

This is the Premier League

  1. 'They didn't believe in me!' - Bournemouth star slams AC Milan

    Bournemouth's Spanish full-back Alex Jimenez has opened up on his bitter departure from AC Milan, revealing deep frustration with the club's management. The 20-year-old expressed anger over what he perceived as a lack of faith in his abilities from the Italian club's officials, explaining why he felt forced to leave despite his lingering, continuous love for the Rossoneri.

  2. Tottenham complain to PGMOL over officiating

    Tottenham have officially reached the end of their patience with Premier League officiating, lodging a formal written complaint to the Professional Game Match Officials Limited (PGMOL) regarding a series of "inconsistent" decisions. The London club, currently navigating a turbulent period under interim manager Igor Tudor, have reached out directly to PGMOL chief Howard Webb to express their growing frustration. The correspondence reportedly focuses heavily on a perceived lack of uniformity in how contact inside the penalty area is being officiated, specifically regarding goals that have been either awarded or chalked off in high-stakes moments.

Transfer news and done deals 🤝

  1. Spalletti

    Spalletti set for Juve contract extension

    Juventus are moving quickly to tie Luciano Spalletti to a long-term deal, despite their recent Champions League exit against Galatasaray. Following recent player renewals, the Bianconeri board wants to lock down the former Italy manager until 2028. This extension aims to provide a clear technical project and stability as the club focuses entirely on domestic success and future sustainability.

  2. Estevao reveals why he snubbed Man Utd

    Brazilian wonderkid Estevao Willian has revealed the reasoning behind his decision to snub Manchester United in favour of a move to Chelsea. The 18-year-old believes that the long-term project offered by Chelsea serves as the best stepping stone to fulfil his ambition of reaching the level of his idol, Neymar. With the club's focus on youth development, Estevao feels Stamford Bridge is the place where he can secure the regular playing time crucial for his growth in the top flight of English football.

Queens of football 👑

  1. Lionesses & Williamson among nominees for 2026 Laureus awards

    Lionesses captain Leah Williamson is one of four footballers to be nominated for accolades at the prestigious 2026 Laureus World Sports Awards, with her England team also shortlisted after winning the 2025 European Championships. Lamine Yamal was the only footballer to win an award at last year's ceremony, with Real Madrid also scooping up a team prize, but the chances of more recognition are greater this year, with significantly more nominees from the world of football.

  2. Lionesses star Kearns reveals pregnancy with footballer boyfriend

    Lionesses midfielder Missy Bo Kearns has revealed that she is pregnant with her first child, due in September. Kearns was not included in Sarina Wiegman's squad for England's upcoming World Cup qualifiers, described as being unavailable for selection, and the reasons for that have now become clear, after the Aston Villa star and her boyfriend, also a professional footballer, announced the news on social media.

  3. How do the Lionesses get the best out of in-form Park?

    As soon as Jess Park received the ball on the edge of the Atletico Madrid box, Marc Skinner knew. She took one touch, then another to get it out of her feet and set herself up for a perfect strike with her right foot, which would send the ball over the heads of every Atleti defender, out of the reach of goalkeeper Lola Gollardo and into the top corner, giving Skinner's Manchester United an unassailable 5-0 lead on aggregate, one that secured their place in the Women's Champions League quarter-finals for the first time.

Superstars of the future

  1. Ex-Madrid forward's son earning interest from Europe's elite

    Robinho Jr only turned 18 in December, but he has already broken into the senior team at Santos, where he is now rubbing shoulders with Brazil's all-time record goal-scorer, Neymar. The teenager is already attracting transfer interest from a host of top European clubs, partly because of his ability, but also due to the footballing legacy of his father.

  2. Why Italy are desperate to cap Atalanta's new wonderkid

    Honest Ahanor is just 17 years old - and yet on Sunday he started his fifth successive game for Atalanta, against Como. Unfortunately, Ahanor's afternoon came to an abrupt end - and quite literally by his own hand. Just eight minutes into the game at Sinigaglia, the defender was involved in an innocuous, off-the-ball clash with Maxi Perrone, who shamelessly collapsed to the ground as if Ahanor had struck him in the face.

  3. Why Chelsea fought off Man Utd & Liverpool to sign teen Alao

    Another transfer window and another highly-rated prospect is on their way to Chelsea. The club's youth policy has struck again, with the west Londoners landing 17-year-old full-back Yisa Alao from financially troubled Sheffield Wednesday. Despite his very limited experience at senior level, the teenager provoked a transfer tug-of-war between three Premier League giants, but it is the Blues who have emerged victorious.

  1. Can Arsenal do the quadruple?! Invincible refuses trophy 'swap'

    Arsenal remain in the hunt for an unprecedented quadruple, with former ‘Invincibles’ squad member Jeremie Aliadiere telling GOAL why the Gunners would not “swap” three of those trophies for a guaranteed Premier League title triumph. The Frenchman is of the opinion that domestic dominance can be restored at Emirates Stadium while collecting multiple pieces of major silverware.

  2. Real Madrid confirm Mbappe injury diagnosis

    Real Madrid have confirmed the nature of the injury suffered by Kylian Mbappe, sparking fresh concerns over his availability for the upcoming Champions League quarter-final clash against Manchester City. The French superstar has been the subject of intense medical scrutiny in the Spanish capital after picking up a knock that sidelined him for recent domestic action. With a season-defining European tie on the horizon, Madrid fans have been waiting with bated breath for an update on their marquee summer signing’s condition.

  3. Real Madrid expect UEFA ban for Barca

    The long-standing tension between Spanish football's biggest rivals has reached a critical point. Real Madrid are confident that UEFA will soon hand down severe sanctions to Barcelona regarding the "Negreira Case." While Spanish courts move slowly, Madrid believe European football's governing body is ready to take decisive disciplinary action against the Catalan club in the near future.
