Gianni Infantino is facing explosive new allegations after leaked documents suggested he was involved in discussions to bring the European Super League under FIFA’s umbrella. While the broader football community opposed the breakaway project in 2021, reports indicate the FIFA president explored the possibility of branding the competition as the "FIFA Super League."
For some football fans, the summer is the part of the calendar that they look forward to the most - and that's not just because it's filled by a World Cup every four years! Rather, it's because the end of the season means only one thing: It's time for transfers! The 2026 window is once again proving to be busy, with some huge names making big-money moves before deadline day on September 1.
Marcus Rashford is seemingly set to be absorbed back into the fold at Manchester United, with Lee Sharpe explaining to GOAL why the England international is worth a calculated transfer risk. A home-grown star at Old Trafford was considered to have “downed tools” before heading out on loan, but is talented enough that a new contract at the Theatre of Dreams cannot be entirely ruled out.
Manchester United have been tipped to have secured the signing of the season following their cut-price acquisition of Belgian international Youri Tielemans. Former Premier League goalkeeper Shay Given believes the Red Devils have pulled off a masterstroke in the transfer market, while also hailing shot-stopper Senne Lammens as the club's most complete keeper in years.
Juventus are accelerating negotiations to sign Manchester United forward Joshua Zirkzee on loan this summer. The Red Devils have given the green light to evaluate a temporary deal after the Dutchman expressed a strong desire to return to Serie A.
Manchester United's goalkeeping ranks are thinning further, with Altay Bayindir becoming the third shot-stopper set to depart Old Trafford. Having struggled for minutes under Michael Carrick, the Turkish international has reportedly agreed to join Celta Vigo and is now heading to Spain for a medical to revive his career.
