Premier League

  1. Liverpool must bite the bullet and sack Slot to salvage season

    Arne Slot called Tuesday's embarrassing 2-1 loss at Wolves "the same old story". And he was right. There was nothing new or novel about their painfully predictable defeat at Molineux. Liverpool produced a dreadfully flat first half, got themselves back into the game after gifting the opposition a goal, only to then lose it by conceding an injury-time winner.

  2. Scholes is right: Tonali IS better than Rice & ideal for United

    Manchester United moved up to third in the Premier League standings after securing their sixth win in seven games under Michael Carrick on Sunday, seeing off Crystal Palace 2-1 at Old Trafford. Although Benjamin Sesko and Bruno Fernandes deservedly dominated the headlines after respective goal-scoring turns, Casemiro's stellar work in the middle of the park was also essential to the victory, which has become a theme for the resurgent Red Devils since the turn of the year.

  3. Childish Chelsea in danger of setting whole season on fire

    Chelsea head coach Liam Rosenior could barely contain his frustration after his side conceded a 93rd-minute equaliser against Burnley at Stamford Bridge on February 21 - just three days after blowing a 2-0 lead at home to Leeds United. "We've set fire to four points from two home games," the Blues boss fumed in his post-match press conference.

  4. Van Dijk among Liverpool flops in woeful loss to Wolves

    Liverpool blew a glorious chance to move into the Premier League's top four by slumping to a humiliating 2-1 loss away to basement boys Wolves on Tuesday. After a strangely subdued first-half showing, the Reds pinned their hosts back in the second half but failed to turn their possession into clear-cut chances. Then, with just 12 minutes to go, Tolu Arokodare bullied Virgil van Dijk in the air, before putting Rodrigo Gomes through to score with Wolves' first shot of any variety all evening.

  5. City NAILED their January signings & turbocharged title bid

    Pep Guardiola has claimed that he is not a "big, big fan" of the January transfer window, but Manchester City's recent winter business suggests otherwise. City have signed six players in the last two January windows, spending a total of £264 million ($353m) in the process. But whereas last year's purchases smacked of desperation, the recent acquisitions of Marc Guehi and Antoine Semenyo are looking like masterstrokes.

  6. No remontada for Barca despite Yamal & Bernal heroics

    Barcelona fell agonisingly short of an epic comeback in their Copa del Rey semi-final against Atletico Madrid as the Blaugrana won Tuesday's second leg 3-0 but lost out 4-3 on aggregate. Teenage midfielder Marc Bernal scored twice on a night where Barca launched attack after attack, but they couldn't find the fourth goal that would have taken the tie to extra-time.

  7. 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.

  8. Russo, Stanway & Park lead Lionesses in six-goal blitz

    Alessia Russo's quick-fire brace kickstarted England's 6-1 win over Ukraine on Tuesday, with Georgia Stanway and Jess Park also netting twice to get the Lionesses off to a strong start in qualifying for the 2027 Women's World Cup. It took Sarina Wiegman's side until the second half to break down a resolute Ukraine defence, but once they did, the result was never in doubt, even if Yana Kalinina grabbed a consolation to temporarily halve the deficit.

  9. 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.

  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.

  1. Coelho reveals why he snubbed Chelsea for Strasbourg

    Strasbourg assistant coach Filipe Coelho has opened up on his decision to reject a move to Chelsea earlier this year. The Portuguese coach was heavily linked with a return to Stamford Bridge when Liam Rosenior left the Ligue 1 outfit to take over the reins from Enzo Maresca in London, but Coelho opted to remain at the Stade de la Meinau to serve under new boss Gary O'Neil.

  2. Dele training with Spurs as comeback nears

    Former England star Dele Alli has made an emotional return to Tottenham Hotspur's training ground to work on his fitness.

  3. Newcastle star caught up in 'terrifying' Middle East on injury rehab trip

    Newcastle United defender Fabian Schar has opened up about a harrowing experience that saw him caught in the middle of a major international conflict. The Swiss centre-back, who is a vital part of Eddie Howe’s defensive line at St James' Park, found himself in a life-threatening situation while attempting to recover from a long-term injury. What was supposed to be a standard rehabilitation trip quickly spiralled into a nightmare as regional tensions escalated into a full-scale warzone.

Serie A

  1. Real Madrid eye Serie A manager to replace Arbeloa

    The pressure is mounting on Alvaro Arbeloa at the Bernabeu, and reports in Italy suggest that Real Madrid president Florentino Perez is already looking at alternatives. Los Blancos have endured a difficult period following the departure of Xabi Alonso, and despite Arbeloa stepping into the breach, the hierarchy is reportedly unconvinced by the current trajectory. Consequently, the Spanish giants are said to be weighing up a move for AC Milan head coach Massimiliano Allegri to take the reins for the 2026-27 campaign.

  2. Arsenal warned! Inter insist 'treasured' striker isn't for sale

    Inter president Giuseppe Marotta has issued a firm hands-off warning to Arsenal regarding the future of rising star Pio Esposito. The Nerazzurri chief moved quickly to dismiss growing speculation that the Premier League leaders had made an approach for the highly-rated forward. The 19-year-old has emerged as one of the most talked-about talents in Italian football, inevitably drawing glances from the recruitment departments of Europe’s elite clubs.

    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.

This extension aims to provide a clear technical project and stability as the club focuses entirely on domestic success and future sustainability.

La Liga

  1. Griezmann puts Orlando move on ice after beating Barca

    Antoine Griezmann has reportedly suspended his highly anticipated transfer to MLS side Orlando City in order to remain at Atletico Madrid for the time being. Driven by the desire to end his personal trophy drought with the Spanish giants, the French forward has opted to remain in Madrid for the upcoming Copa del Rey final, delaying his American dream until the summer window.

  2. Lewandowski to wear mask on Barca return

    Barcelona are set to welcome back their primary goal-scoring threat as Robert Lewandowski prepares for a return to action under unique circumstances. The veteran striker, who has been sidelined following a painful injury sustained against Villarreal, has been given the green light to return to the pitch. However, the Polish international will not be sporting his usual look, as he is required to wear a protective eye mask to safeguard a bone fracture in the internal orbital area of his left eye.

  3. Mastantuono and defensive duo banned for Madrid

    Real Madrid have been dealt a significant triple blow following their 1-0 home defeat against Getafe on Monday. The Disciplinary Committee officially handed down punishments to several key members of Alvaro Arbeloa’s squad. The most high-profile case involved Argentinian starlet Franco Mastantuono, who saw red during the match. Despite Los Blancos’ efforts to overturn the decision, the league’s governing body has remained firm, leaving the Spanish giants short-handed for their upcoming fixtures.

  4. Revealed: Rodrygo played with partial ACL tear since 2023

    Rodrygo sustained a devastating season-ending knee rupture in Real Madrid's latest La Liga outing against Getafe, but it has now been reported that the Brazilian had been quietly managing a partial ACL tear without surgery for almost three years.

Transfers

  1. Ex-Spurs boss Frank in line to join London rivals

    Crystal Palace have identified former Tottenham manager Thomas Frank as a top target to replace Oliver Glasner this summer. Following his abrupt departure from Spurs, Frank is eager for a swift return to the Premier League with the Eagles seeking a tactically astute boss with top-flight experience to maintain their attacking identity and secure their long-term future.

  2. Simeone hints at worry over Griezmann leaving for Orlando before Copa final

    Diego Simeone has hinted he is uncertain whether Antoine Griezmann will remain at Atletico Madrid long enough to compete in the upcoming Copa del Rey final. Despite the Frenchman’s stellar performances for Atleti this season, rumours of a move to MLS outfit Orlando City have cast a shadow over his future. With the forward yet to confirm his plans, the Rojiblancos face the sobering prospect of losing their talisman at the most critical juncture of the season.

  3. Carrick sets Man Utd transfer priority after Amorim clear-out

    Manchester United interim boss Michael Carrick has dropped a significant hint that the Red Devils will prioritise the signing of a new left winger this summer. The admission comes after a period of radical upheaval under former manager Ruben Amorim, whose tactical shifts led to a mass exodus of wide talent from Old Trafford. Despite the club previously spending over £170 million on the likes of Antony and Jadon Sancho, the current squad finds itself remarkably thin on the flanks as they transition back to a more traditional 4-2-3-1 system.

  4. Adeyemi stalls on Dortmund deal amid Man Utd interest

    The future of Karim Adeyemi at Borussia Dortmund is hanging by a thread as the German international continues to hesitate over a new contract offer at the Westfalenstadion. Despite being viewed as a cornerstone of the club’s long-term project, the 24-year-old has yet to commit his future to the Bundesliga giants. The forward is currently enduring a difficult run of form on the pitch, having managed just two goals and two assists since late-November. This dip in production has seen him relegated to a bit-part role under head coach Niko Kovac, further fuelling speculation that his time in a yellow shirt could be coming to an end.
