England cult hero Dan Burn is more than just a “head it and kick it” centre-half, Gary Pallister has told GOAL, with another defender from the North East explaining why a 2026 World Cup viral sensation was always destined to make it.

For some football fans, the summer is the part of the calendar that they look forward to the most - and that's not just because it's filled by a World Cup every four years! Rather, it's because the end of the season means only one thing: It's time for transfers! The 2026 window is once again proving to be busy, with some huge names making big-money moves before deadline day on September 1.

Newly appointed Chelsea manager Xabi Alonso has declared his intention to build his team around "special player" Cole Palmer. Despite missing out on Thomas Tuchel's England squad for the ongoing World Cup, where the Three Lions have reached the semi-finals, the attacker is determined to shine. Alonso believes the midfielder has the unique quality to lead the Blues back to the top.

Alexis Mac Allister has delivered his verdict on Gilberto Mora as Liverpool continue to be linked with a move for the Mexican wonderkid. The Argentina midfielder spoke out on the speculation following Mora's breakout performances on the international stage this summer.

Xabi Alonso has opened up on his decision to take the Chelsea job, admitting that his arrival at Stamford Bridge over a sentimental return to Liverpool was simply a matter of timing. The Spaniard, who enjoyed a legendary playing career at Anfield, was officially unveiled as the new Blues boss after leaving Real Madrid, where he took charge during one of the club's most difficult seasons before departing prior to the end of the campaign, having previously enjoyed a highly successful spell with Bayer Leverkusen in the Bundesliga.

Arsenal have confirmed they have reached an agreement with Turkish giants Besiktas for the permanent transfer of Leandro Trossard.

Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink has urged new Chelsea manager Xabi Alonso to sign free agent John Stones, arguing the England defender would bring experience and leadership to a young squad. The former Blues striker believes Chelsea's lighter schedule next season could also help minimise concerns over Stones' injury record.
