  1. Keep dancing, Vini! Madrid star back to his best in 2026

    After all that followed it, it may have been forgotten just how good Vinicius Jr's goal to beat Benfica was last week. The Brazil winger has a fine catalogue for Real Madrid, but this was surely among the best. Vinicius cut inside before using the outline of a defender to shape his shot into the top corner. It was a truly wonderful moment of individual expression - one that absolutely should be celebrated.

  2. RANKED: How the Asian Cup & AFCON will effect WSL clubs

    The Women's Asian Cup begins on March 1, kickstarting a month that will see two of the premier major tournaments in the women's game take place, with the Africa Cup of Nations kicking-off on March 17 after reverting back to a springtime slot following back-to-back summer editions. It means two thrilling continental championships will be decided over the course of the next few weeks, but the impact these tournaments will have on the continuing club competitions also promises to be fascinating, as teams across the women's game say goodbye to some of their best players for a few weeks.

  3. Lammens proving to be one of EPL's best recent bargains

    Manchester United's 1-0 win at Everton was the perfect showcase for the recruitment team. The goal was the work of the three summer signings: started by Matheus Cunha, packaged by Bryan Mbeumo and clinically dispatched by Benjamin Sesko. The lead was then protected by the man who is proving to be United's best signing of the last year and looks like their best hire for many years: Senne Lammens.

  4. Unsung O'Reilly becoming a key figure for City & England

    Manchester City hoped, and may even have expected that a midfielder called Nico would transform their fortunes during the second half of last season. The man that has become key to Pep Guardiola’s side’s mid-season surge and made them contenders to pull off the quadruple is not, however, the gangly Nico Gonzalez, who was recruited from Porto for £50 million last January, but rather academy graduate Nico O’Reilly, who cost nothing at all.

  5. How Gordon found himself chasing Mbappe in UCL goal charts

    Anthony Gordon's 2025-26 Champions League campaign is the greatest by any English scorer for an English club in the competition's history. That's a fact. With his four-goal haul for Newcastle in last week's 6-1 hammering of Qarabag, he broke the record for most goals scored by an Englishman for a Premier League side in a single Champions League season, taking his tally to 10 from nine games. Not even Alan Shearer managed such a number in those famous black-and-white stripes.

  6. LEGACY: Madrid, Barca & how to build Spanish success

    This is Legacy, GOAL’s podcast and feature series tracking the countdown to the 2026 World Cup. Each week, we explore the stories and the spirit behind the nations that define the world’s game.

The style of one, the strength of the other, blended into the perfect mix. Sixteen years on, and as a new generation rises in Catalunya, can Barcelona now become the sole heart of La Roja?

Premier League

  1. Man Utd cut wages due to Amorim-led clearout

    Manchester United chief executive Omar Berrada hailed the club's off-pitch transformation after squad costs fell due to a summer clearout of players. Despite bringing in Bryan Mbeumo, Benjamin Sesko, Matheus Cunha and Senne Lammens for a total of £225.5m, United were able to shave £14m ($18.9m) off their total wage bill due to player sales and sending others out on loan.

Must-read opinion and expert analysis

  1. Spurs up next? Most shocking relegations in EPL history

    If they didn't know it beforehand, then Sunday's north London derby seemingly confirmed one thing for those watching on as Tottenham succumbed to Arsenal: Spurs are in a relegation battle. Igor Tudor was supposed to deliver a new-manager bounce after replacing Thomas Frank, but his side looked severely lacking in quality and, perhaps more importantly, belief as they went down 4-1 to the Gunners to leave themselves just four points above the drop zone with 11 matches to play.

  2. Terrible Tottenham ARE getting relegated!

    It was the most hotly-anticipated north London derby since their Champions League showdown of 2022. Arsenal, off the back of two hugely disappointing draws at Brentford and Wolves, suddenly had reason to fear entering the den of rivals Tottenham. Spurs, in theory, were about to be buoyed by a 'new manager bounce' brought about by the appointment of Igor Tudor as head coach, who replaced the unpopular Thomas Frank.

La Liga

  1. Laporta fumes as CTA admit Barca error

    The race for the Spanish league title has been rocked by an official admission of a high-profile officiating blunder. Barcelona president Joan Laporta has spoken out after the Spanish Referees' Committee (CTA) acknowledged that Girona’s winning goal in their recent 2-1 victory over the Blaugrana should have been disallowed for a foul on Jules Kounde. Despite the rare moment of transparency from the governing body, Laporta remains frustrated that the technical validation does nothing to alter the league standings or the damage done at Montilivi.

  2. Yamal romantically linked with British model & influencer

    Barcelona superstar Lamine Yamal is being romantically linked with British model and influencer Lily Rowland. The teenager's love life is once again in the spotlight, with his social media activity under close scrutiny. Meanwhile, Rowland has been spotted at Barcelona's home stadium following the team, fuelling more speculation that the two may be getting close.

  3. Wirtz's agent still 'wishing' for Real Madrid transfer

    Florian Wirtz's agent has revealed that he called Xabi Alonso and asked him to take the Germany star with him to Real Madrid before he signed for Liverpool. Wirtz ended up joining the Reds instead in a deal worth £116 million ($156m). Alonso has since departed the Santiago Bernabeu, and been replaced by Alvaro Arbeloa, but the player's agent is still hoping he can go on and play for Los Blancos in the future.

  4. Barcelona issue hilarious response as referees admit VAR mistake

    The race for the Spanish league title has taken another dramatic turn off the pitch as the Spanish Referees' Committee (CTA) officially admitted that a crucial goal against Barcelona should never have stood. During Barca's shock 2-1 defeat to Girona at Montilivi on February 16, Fran Beltran netted an 86th-minute winner that left the Catalan giants fuming. The club's hierarchy and fans alike were adamant that Jules Kounde had been fouled in the build-up, and those suspicions have now been validated by the governing bodies in spectacular fashion.

Serie A

  1. Torino fans dump manure in Cairo protest

    The atmosphere at Torino has reached a toxic breaking point, as disgruntled supporters took extreme measures to voice their anger following the club’s latest Serie A disaster. A group of fans arrived at the club's training complex to deliver a pungent message to the hierarchy. The protest comes at a time of deep instability for the Granata, who find themselves flirting with catastrophe in the bottom half of the table.

  2. Galatasaray planning Calhanoglu raid after Osimhen 'doubles' in value

    Galatasaray are no longer content with being the dominant force in Turkish football; they have set their sights on the European elite. Following a stunning 5-2 victory over Juventus in the Champions League, vice-president Abdullah Kavukcu has outlined a blueprint to transform the Istanbul giants into a global powerhouse within five years. Central to this revolution is the successful integration of marquee signings from Serie A, a market the club has raided with increasing frequency and financial might.

  3. Kalulu shrugs off Inter red card drama

    Juventus defender Pierre Kalulu has finally spoken out about the storm that followed his controversial dismissal during the Derby d'Italia. The Frenchman was at the centre of a heated debate after receiving a second yellow card for a challenge on Alessandro Bastoni, a decision that many felt was harsh given the apparent lack of contact.

Transfers

  1. Dortmund in talks for ex-Bayern star Pavard

    Borussia Dortmund are reportedly closing in on a major defensive reinforcement with a familiar face. BVB are in advanced negotiations to secure the signature of 29-year-old French international Benjamin Pavard, a player who boasts an extensive and successful history in the Bundesliga with both Stuttgart and Dortmund's arch-rivals, Bayern Munich. The move represents a significant statement of intent from the Signal Iduna Park outfit as they look to bolster their backline with elite European experience.

  2. Barca presidential candidate insists Kane is 'interested' in transfer

    Barcelona presidential candidate Xavi Vilajoana's camp have insisted that Harry Kane is "interested" in joining the club from Bayern Munich. Kane has been mentioned as a potential transfer target during the election campaign, with the striker yet to agree a new contract with the Bavarian giants. Barcelona are thought to be in the market for a new centre-forward to take over from Robert Lewandowski, but Kane claims to have heard nothing from the club.

  3. Simeone breaks silence on Griezmann to Orlando City rumours

    The curtain appears to be falling on Antoine Griezmann's second act at Atletico Madrid, as speculation regarding a move to Major League Soccer reaches a fever pitch. Despite being in a rich vein of form for the Colchoneros, the French World Cup winner is increasingly expected to call time on his career in the Spanish capital at the end of the current campaign. While his existing contract at the Metropolitano is technically valid until 2027, there is a growing sense within the club and the wider footballing world that his departure this summer is becoming an inevitability.

  4. Onana determined to take Man Utd No.1 spot back from Lammens

    Andre Onana reportedly wants to return to Manchester United and fight for the No.1 spot at the club once his loan deal with Trabzonspor expires at the end of the season. The goalkeeper was shipped out on loan after an error-prone time with the Red Devils and is facing an uncertain future. United have since brought in Belgian shot-stopper Senne Lammens, who has impressed between the sticks at Old Trafford.
