Modern Sport FC Overview

Pep Guardiola has lavished praise on the work being done by Hansi Flick at Barcelona, admitting he has become a "big fan" of the brand of football currently on display at Spanish champions. However, the former Manchester City boss also offered a stern word of caution regarding the club's continental ambitions and the psychological weight of the Champions League.

Bernardo Silva has finally addressed the intense speculation linking him with a move to Barcelona as he prepares for life after Manchester City. The veteran playmaker is one of the most high-profile free agents on the market this summer, and while he played down talks of a 'dream' agreement with Blaugrana, he remains open to all possibilities for his next destination.

Manchester City legend Yaya Toure has finally landed his first head coaching role, stepping out from the shadows to take charge of Slovakian heavyweights Slovan Bratislava. The iconic midfielder, who has spent the last five years honing his craft in various backroom roles, is now set to lead the Slovakian giants into a new era.

Jack Grealish “having a pint” is actually “quite refreshing” in the modern era, Everton legend Peter Reid has told GOAL, with fans on Merseyside hoping to see a deal struck in the summer transfer window that brings a colourful character back to the Hill Dickinson Stadium. Manchester City-owned Grealish saw a productive loan spell with the Toffees in 2025-26 cut short by injury.
