Premier League news

After watching Premier League leaders Arsenal be held to a 2-2 draw by basement boys Wolves on Wednesday, former Gunner Alan Smith admitted, "That word 'bottle' will be used quite a bit in the next few days." And with good cause. Having blown a two-goal lead at Molineux against one of the weakest teams England's top-flight has ever seen, the obvious question now is whether Mikel Arteta's men are also going to throw away the title.

Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher reveals why he was happy to see Arsenal stumble at Wolves, despite wanting Mikel Arteta’s side to beat Manchester City to the Premier League trophy. The London side were held to a shock 2-2 draw against the Premier League bottom feeders on Wednesday, providing their rivals with the chance to catch up.

Wayne Rooney has questioned whether Arne Slot has the “aura” to be Liverpool manager, but admits that sack talk at Anfield remains “crazy” as the Dutchman delivered Premier League title glory less than a year ago. Questions are being asked of whether another change in the dugout on Merseyside needs to be made during the summer of 2026.

Portuguese wonderkid Geovany Quenda is not due to link up with Chelsea until the summer of 2026, as he sees a £40 million ($54m) transfer from Sporting pushed through, but the youngster already finds himself at the Blues’ training base. An early visit to west London is allowing the highly-rated teenager to familiarise himself with what will soon become his permanent home.

"To become co-owner of Manchester United is a great honour and comes with great responsibility." Those the words of Sir Jim Ratcliffe upon purchasing his 27.7 percent stake in the Red Devils in February 2024. "This marks the completion of the transaction, but just the beginning of our journey to take Manchester United back to the top of English, European and world football, with world-class facilities for our fans."

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has called on his players to 'stand up' after they threw away a two-goal lead away at Wolves on Tuesday. The Gunners conceded deep into added time and were held to a 2-2 draw by the team sitting bottom of the table - the first time a side top of the Premier League has ever blown such an advantage against opposition in the relegation zone.

Arsenal slipped up again in the Premier League title race as a late Tom Edozie strike helped Wolves claim a dramatic 2-2 draw on Wednesday. Bukayo Saka headed the Gunners ahead early on before Piero Hincapie doubled their lead shortly after half-time. Hugo Bueno's stunner made it a nervy final 20 minutes for Mikel Arteta's side before a calamitous mistake from David Raya allowed Edozie to equalise courtesy of a ricochet off Riccardo Calafiori.

American billionaire Leon Cooperman has upped his stake in Manchester United to 2.9 million shares. The 82-year-old first invested in the Red Devils around the time Sir Jim Ratcliffe was planning his takeover at Old Trafford and has recently acquired shares from a British investment firm. He is also not thought to be mounting a takeover bid of his own any time soon.

Axel Disasi has admitted he need to lean on the support of his family after being exiled to Chelsea's 'bomb squad' during his time at Stamford Bridge. The French defender secured a move to West Ham United on loan for the rest of the 2025-26 season at the end of the winter transfer window, giving himself the opportunity to play Premier League football again after being frozen out in west London.

Former Premier League striker Dave Kitson has revealed he was the 'Secret Footballer', a pseudonym he used to pen articles and books during his playing career without revealing his identity. The series focused on what goes on behind the scenes in elite-level football, with topics ranging from matchdays to transfers and contracts. Many punters attempted to unmask the author while he was still playing, but Kitson has now confirmed he was behind the phenomenon.

Real Madrid have been warned to not expect Rodri to join them if he chooses to leave Manchester City due to his preference for another Spanish club. Rodri is on the road back to his best after missing almost all of last season due to tearing his ACL and having repeated injury setbacks this campaign, boosting City's bid to win the Premier League and go deep in the Champions League.

Manchester United have made a final decision on Jadon Sancho's future amid an underwhelming loan spell at Aston Villa. Sancho was shipped out on loan to Chelsea last season but the Blues ended up paying a penalty fee to send him back to Old Trafford. Another loan spell has followed in the current campaign but Sancho is once again struggling to impress.

Manchester United have become "frustrated" by the agreement they struck with Barcelona for the loan transfer of Marcus Rashford. The England international is spending the 2025-26 season with Hansi Flick's side, and the deal does include a purchase option set at £26 million (£30m). However, Rashford's good form with the Catalan giants has left Manchester United worrying that his valuation has risen significantly.

Former Manchester United star Jesse Lingard is being linked with another unlikely transfer following his exit from South Korean side FC Seoul. The 33-year-old is now a free agent and could be heading to South America for the next chapter of his career. Lingard is already in negotiations with Brazilian side Remo and there's optimism an agreement can be reached.
