Santi Cazorla has announced his retirement from professional football, ending a career that lasted more than 20 years. The former Arsenal and Spain midfielder signed off after helping boyhood club Real Oviedo return to La Liga last year, completing a memorable final chapter following one of football's greatest comeback stories.

Tony Cascarino has admitted to GOAL that “big players have always moved”, but the former Aston Villa striker is still annoyed at the slightly baffling situation that sees Morgan Rogers generating intense transfer talk. The England international is seeing a big-money move to Arsenal speculated on, with the Villans needing to sanction sales in order to comply with Profit and Sustainability Rules (PSR).

Declan Rice is “world-class” already, former Arsenal midfielder Stefan Schwarz has told GOAL, with the Gunners star considered to boast a special quality that makes him a potential Ballon d’Or contender of the future. England international Rice is hoping to come into contention for that prize while chasing down more major honours with club and country.

Ashley Cole has announced his departure from Serie B side Cesena, bringing an abrupt end to his first head coaching role after just three months. The former England international decided to step down following internal discussions regarding the club’s future direction.
