Liverpool will need a new No.1 in 2027, as long-serving goalkeeper Alisson heads towards free agency. Did they have a perfect successor to the Brazil international on their books, only to let him leave? Stephen Warnock has suggested to GOAL that may have been the case, with the former Reds defender assessing a change between the sticks that will be difficult to get right.
The Talented attacker has thrown his weight behind the Amakhosi coach, insisting the club has finally built the right foundation for sustained success. The Congolese attacker, who recently left the Soweto giants for Libyan giants Al Ahly Benghazi, believes the recent influx of quality talent has transformed the squad into genuine contenders once again.
The Portuguese mentor has lifted the lid on his thinking behind the changes to the Brazilians’ starting XI for Wednesday’s victory. Teboho Mokoena was one of the notable names left on the bench as the Tshwane giants were made to work for a 2-0 victory over the newly promoted KwaZulu-Natal outfit.
Rayan Cherki boasts the ability to become Manchester City’s new Kevin De Bruyne, but Bacary Sagna has explained to GOAL why his fellow countryman is more of a Santi Cazorla clone. Ex-France international defender Sagna worked alongside a Spanish schemer at Arsenal and with a Belgian magician during his time at the Etihad Stadium.
Jamie Carragher has fiercely criticised Milos Kerkez following Liverpool's sluggish start to the Premier League season, bizarrely labelling the left-back as the 'Darwin Nunez of full-backs'. The former Reds defender also questioned the Hungarian's footballing intelligence.
AC Milan veteran Luka Modric has opened up on his admiration for Real Madrid’s current crop of superstars, admitting he saw something special in Jude Bellingham from the moment he arrived. The Croatian maestro, who enjoyed a trophy-laden decade at the Bernabeu, remains a keen observer of the talent currently lighting up the Spanish capital.
The Mamelodi Sundowns and national team skipper has issued a passionate defense of fellow goalkeepers, specifically throwing his support behind the Amakhosi star.

Ange Postecoglou has revealed that the opportunity to coach Cristiano Ronaldo was a major factor in his decision to take charge of Al Nassr. The Australian manager believes working with the Portuguese superstar adds another remarkable chapter to his own managerial journey.
Alexander Isak has become a “huge problem” for Liverpool, former Reds star Stephen Warnock has told GOAL, with the £125 million ($169m) striker “not at the races” and looking disinterested. The most expensive player in British football has failed to make the desired impact at Anfield, with it being suggested that he is struggling to handle the “weight” of an iconic shirt.
