  2. Gyokeres not the answer! Arsenal still missing Haaland-esque No.9

    Arsenal hoped that Viktor Gyokeres would be the final piece in their Premier League title-winning puzzle, but Paul Dickov has told GOAL why the Gunners are still in need of an Erling Haaland-esque No.9. A player of that ilk has been sought at Emirates Stadium for some time, with the lack of a prolific striker considered to have contributed significantly to near misses on the domestic coronation front.

  3. Arsenal eye shock Arda Guler swoop

    Arsenal have reportedly reignited their pursuit of Real Madrid sensation Arda Guler as Mikel Arteta looks to bolster his creative options.

  4. Ex-Chiefs star schools Ndamane after costly howler - 'He should have...'

    In what looked like a prime chance for Mamelodi Sundowns to reclaim top spot in the Premier Soccer League, they stumbled by being held to a frustrating 1-1 draw by Stellenbosch FC. The headlines, however, belong to the Bafana Bafana centre-back, whose late switch-off at the back opened the door for the visitors to snatch a lifeline at Loftus Versfeld Stadium on Wednesday night.

  6. Haaland backed to smash PL record held by Salah & Henry

    Erling Haaland is being backed to smash another record, one held by Arsenal and Liverpool legends Thierry Henry and Mohamed Salah, as the Manchester City striker closes in on his third Premier League Golden Boot.

  7. ‘Can’t see Arsenal sacking him’ - Why Arteta could still leave

    Paul Dickov has told GOAL that despite being unable to see Arsenal “sacking” Mikel Arteta, the Spaniard could still leave Emirates Stadium if another Premier League title falls agonisingly out of reach. Some uncomfortable questions are being asked in north London, following another collapse of sorts, with Dickov offering his take on the long-running “bottle” debate.

  8. Could Barca really spend big on Alvarez & Bastoni?!

    Barcelona boss Hansi Flick doesn't want to get bogged down in questions about the summer transfer window at this particular moment in time, and that's perfectly understandable. The Catalans may be presently nine points clear of Real Madrid in the Spanish title race, but there's still work to be done - possibly without an injured Lamine Yamal - and, as Flick pointed out on Tuesday, "La Liga is not an easy league."

    Barcelona are reportedly preparing to allow Marcus Rashford to return to Manchester United this summer following an underwhelming loan spell at Camp Nou.

  11. Hunt happy with 'Downs draw but believes Stellies 'could have won it in the end'

    The Wineland's boss cut a satisfied figure after his side held Mamelodi Sundowns to a 1-1 draw on Wednesday evening in a crucial Betway Premiership match that dented the Pretoria club's title ambitions. While the veteran coach was pleased to take a point off the reigning champions, he insisted the Maroons had the opportunities to secure a late victory.

  12. Revealed: Kane goal list had team-mates ‘laughing at him’

    Harry Kane once wrote a list of career goals that left Tottenham team-mates “laughing at him”, with fellow Spurs academy graduate Paul-Jose M’Poku telling GOAL who the “only person” that believed in the record-breaking striker was. In his younger years, few could have predicted what the current England captain would become. He has, however, had the last laugh and proved any doubters wrong.
