Premier League news

Manchester City fans sure have enjoyed watching Manchester United’s demise over the past 13 years, with each new coach that has failed at Old Trafford giving the Blues plenty of fresh material to sing about on the terraces.

Every summer, Brentford seem to dance with death. They almost always sell off at least one of their best players and don't usually replace them, at least in a like-for-like sense. Yet since they were promoted to the Premier League in 2021, the Bees have never really faced the threat of relegation back to the Championship. It was, however, only this past summer that they were widely tipped to battle the drop.

Bruno Fernandes has reportedly made a definitive decision on his Manchester United future with another transfer window open. It has been revealed that the Portuguese midfielder, who continues to generate talk of interest from the Saudi Pro League, has a £57 million ($76m) release clause in his contract that can be triggered by teams outside of the Premier League.

A Real Madrid star has been linked with a shock move to Aston Villa after Unai Emery's side missed out on Conor Gallagher. The Villans have been in the market for a new midfielder but just when it seemed they were favourites to sign the Atletico Madrid man, he joined Tottenham instead. Now, the Premier League title hopefuls have set their sights on another midfield option.

Manchester United are reportedly eyeing up a Nottingham Forest star as a potential Harry Maguire replacement. The England centre-back is out of contract at Old Trafford this summer, with the 32-year-old set to become a free agent. As the Red Devils continue to look to sign young talent, they have turned their attention to an in-demand Premier League defender.

Morgan Rogers is being tipped to complete a stunning £80 million ($107m) transfer to a Premier League powerhouse at some point in the not too distant future. Former Villans striker Stan Collymore has explained to GOAL why the England international will likely be on the move in upcoming windows and which teams will be leading the chase for his signature.

Unai Emery's side are set to dip into the transfer window to sign a replacement for Donyell Malen. The Dutch star is heading to Serie A to join Roma after just a year in the West Midlands. Aston Villa are hoping to replace Malen by making a shock move for a former Chelsea and AC Milan star and are willing to offer a long-term contract at Villa Park.

Tottenham manager Thomas Frank has confirmed that Brazilian striker Richarlison has been ruled out of action for seven weeks after sustaining a hamstring problem. The 28-year-old is the latest Spurs player to suffer a serious injury and joins team-mates such as Rodrigo Bentancur, Mohamed Kudus, James Maddison and Dejan Kulusevski on the sidelines.

West Ham boss Nuno Espirito Santo has issued an update on wantaway midfielder Lucas Paqueta's future amid links with Flamengo. The Brazilian reportedly asked not to be selected for West Ham's FA Cup win over Queens Park Rangers last weekend in light of reports he is 'disillusioned' in east London. Ahead of their clash with Tottenham, manager Nuno has spoken about the player's situation.

New Chelsea boss Liam Rosenior has provided an update on the club's January transfer plans as the Stamford Bridge side try to re-ignite their season. Former Blues head coach Enzo Maresca made no secret of his desire to sign a centre-back in the summer in light of Levi Colwill's serious injury and missing out on Dean Huijsen to Real Madrid. Now, Rosenior says the Blues will be in the market but only for the "right player".

Chelsea have axed one of their summer loan signings after just four months, and now Leeds United will take him for the second half of the season. The Blues have often been parodied for signing so many players, many of whom are then jettisoned to their 'bomb squad' and away from the first team. But now, Daniel Farke's men have taken a certain player off the west London team's hands.

Former Manchester United defender Gary Neville says that Michael Carrick can't be the club's next permanent manager following his appointment as coach until the end of the season. The television pundit says that the Red Devils must go for a more experienced option in the summer and named three potential candidates who could take over at Old Trafford.

Chelsea manager Liam Rosenior has revealed his squad have been hit with a virus that has affected players and staff. The Blues were without Liam Delap and Jamie Gittens due to illness for their Carabao Cup semi-final clash against Arsenal and both players have been ordered to stay at home. More staff members have also been affected ahead of Saturday's Premier League clash with Brentford.

Andy Robertson has cast serious doubt over his Liverpool future, admitting he needs to "sit down with my family and decide" his next move as his contract ticks down. The Scotland captain, who has lost his starting spot to Milos Kerkez this season, insisted he is "a player who wants to play" and hinted that his reduced role under Arne Slot could force him to look elsewhere after almost nine trophy laden years at Anfield.

It is reported that Ruben Amorim was ready to resign a matter of days before Manchester United brought his testing 14-month spell as Red Devils boss to a close. Having struggled to make the desired impact at Old Trafford, the Portuguese tactician was prepared to fall on his sword and walk away. With the decision eventually being taken to sack the 40-year-old, he has cost Premier League heavyweights $16m in compensation.

Jesse Lingard is training alone again, having become a free agent, and is currently mixing business with pleasure during a trip to Dubai. The former Manchester United midfielder is without a club after severing ties with Korean outfit FC Seoul. His desire to compete at the highest level on a regular basis has previously been called into question by Paul Scholes.
