The Gunners splashed out in the summer transfer window and brought exciting attackers Viktor Gyokeres, Noni Madueke and Eberechi Eze to the club in a bid to boost their hopes of winning silverware.

Manchester United minority owner, Sir Jim Ratcliffe, is expected to put Ligue 1 club Nice up for sale at a price of around €200 million (£174m/$237m).

A famous Leeds United-connected pub has changed its name in tribute of a two-time Premier League promotion champion. The Whites are back in the English top-flight after two years away, with Daniel Farke's side aiming to beat the drop this season and reverse the trend of Championship teams not making the grade. Amid that goal, The Old Peacock has shown its class towards an ex-striker.

Newcastle United have officially confirmed to the Premier League that the capacity of St James' Park has been expanded, but only by a very small number of seats since the start of last season. The underwhelming news has caused more frustration for fans and led to questions about the club’s progress on plans to increase capacity to 65,000 either through renovation or a new stadium.

Everton's summer signing Jack Grealish has been accused of "overplaying" for the Toffees since moving to the club on a season-long loan from Manchester City.

Manchester United have reportedly come up with a shortlist of five potential successors to replace under-pressure boss Ruben Amorim at Old Trafford. USMNT manager Mauricio Pochettino has emerged as a candidate for the job, along with Crystal Palace's Oliver Glasner, former England coach Gareth Southgate, Fulham's Marco Silva and Andoni Iraola of Bournemouth.

The most tantalising fixture on matchday one of the new Champions League season comes from the Allianz Arena, where kings of Germany Bayern Munich play host to Club World Cup winners Chelsea. These two teams have history - this will be the Blues' first trip back to Bavaria since lifting their first European Cup there in 2012 - but there is an extremely contemporary entity now linking them.

Nicolas Jackson could find himself lining up against his former team-mates when Bayern Munich collide with Chelsea in the Champions League on Wednesday. Thanks to UEFA’s competition integrity rules, the 24-year-old striker is free to face the Blues despite being on loan from Stamford Bridge.

Elon Musk, long regarded as untouchable at the summit of the global rich list, found himself toppled this month, and the man who did it has a surprising link to English football. Musk, whose fortune Forbes pegged at a staggering $425 billion earlier this year, slipped after a wobble in his valuation. Into the void stepped Oracle kingpin Larry Ellison, who saw his wealth skyrocket on the back of a stock market surge.

Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca has explained the club's decision to let Nicolas Jackson join Bayern Munich on a season-long loan. The striker secured a deadline day move to the German giants, just when it looked like a switch to the Bundesliga might not happen. Now, the Senegal international's current team are set to face his old employers in the Champions League.

Manchester United boss Ruben Amorim has reportedly been given just three games to save his job after a dismal start to the new season. The Portuguese has overseen the Red Devils' worst start to a Premier League campaign for 33 years and now he is under increasing pressure to keep his role. There was much excitement when he joined the club 10 months ago, but that optimism is fading fast.

Manchester United will face an eye-watering compensation fee if they sack head coach Ruben Amorim inside the first year of his contract.

Former Manchester United star Jesse Lingard showed off his trademark dance moves after a pinpoint assist as FC Seoul got their AFC Champions League campaign underway.

Mykhailo Mudryk is facing an uncertain future after being suspended from all forms of football following a positive drugs result. The Chelsea man last played for Enzo Maresca's team in late November 2024 and a month later his career was put on hold as a routine urine test resulted in an adverse finding of meldonium. So, what is the Ukrainian doing now and what is the latest on this matter?

Years before Cristiano Ronaldo became a global icon and five-time Ballon d’Or winner, he made a striking declaration to then Manchester United team-mate Edwin van der Sar. The Dutch goalkeeper, reflecting on former Real Madrid and Juventus forward's early days at Old Trafford, remembers a hungry individual confidently stating he would become the best player in the world.

Manchester United players have made their feelings known on Rasmus Hojlund in response to the striker's fast start at Napoli following his loan move. It took him just 14 minutes in a Napoli shirt to do what he so often struggled to do at Old Trafford: score when it mattered.

Wayne Rooney has reportedly braced himself for an 'awkward' possible meeting with Ruben Amorim after criticising the Manchester United head coach. This is partly because the ex-Red Devils striker picks his son up from the club's training ground - a place the Portuguese regularly frequents.
