Bayer Leverkusen star Kai Havertz does not want to wait a year for a blockbuster move away from the club, handing Chelsea a huge boost in their pursuit of the German. Frank Lampard is understood to be keen on making Havertz his next blockbuster signing of the summer, with the 21-year-old expected to cost close to the £90m mark. Havertz is high on Chelsea's wish list Bayern Munich and Real Madrid are both keen on landing Havertz as well, but that enormous price tag has proven to be a real...

Chelsea have unveiled their new away kit for the 2020/21 season, which will be on show when the Blues meet Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park on Tuesday evening. The new home kit was debuted earlier this month but has brought mixed fortunes to the Blues, who fell 3-2 to West Ham before bouncing back with a 3-0 win over Watford. Introducing our new @nikefootball 20/21 away kit. Inspired by a classic tailored aesthetic but filtered through a modern street lens and colour palette. Available 30.07.20...

Chelsea are considering offering centre-back Fikayo Tomori to West Ham United on loan next season to aid their pursuit of the Hammers' Declan Rice. 21-year-old Rice, who came through Chelsea's academy ranks before being released at 14, has blossomed into an England international during his time with West Ham and has attracted interest from some top sides as a result of his performances in both midfield and defence. Declan Rice is on Frank Lampard's wish list this summer Frank Lampard's...

Škriniar Manchester United are expected to butt heads with cross-town rivals Manchester City in their pursuit of a new centre-back, as both sides have Napoli's Kalidou Koulibaly and Inter's Milan Škriniar on their wish lists. United are keen to continue their upwards momentum by strengthening in defence, but they will likely have to fend off City, who are desperate to bolster at the back after a hugely disappointing campaign which has seen Pep Guardiola lose more league games than he ever has...

Chelsea could offer Fikayo Tomori to West Ham United on loan to aid their £45m pursuit of Declan Rice

lash Despite the men in the dugout boasting a full five Champions League titles between them, Jose Mourinho's Tottenham versus Carlo Ancelotti's Everton offered very little to get excited about. Fortunately, a spicy, little subplot unfolded as everyone's favourite ball of smiling enthusiasm Son Heung-Min and 33-year-old captain of his national team Hugo Lloris almost went full 2005 Lee Bowyer and Kieron Dyer. On the cusp of half time, Son half-heartedly tracked back after losing possession,...

Sideshow Tottenham moved up to eighth in the Premier League with a drab 1-0 victory over Everton at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Monday evening. In a game lacking any real quality or intensity, proceedings were settled by Michael Keane's scrappy own goal, as the Everton defender inadvertently directed Giovanni Lo Celso's strike past a wrong footed Jordan Pickford. Richarlison fired wide for the visitors on the stroke of half time in Everton's best opportunity of the game, triggering a...

News While it may sound extreme to suggest Liverpool will be attempting to stop the rot on Wednesday night when they travel to Brighton given their champions status, that is exactly what they’ll be attempting to do. At least the away from home rot anyway. While Jurgen Klopp’s men have romped home with ease this campaign securing their 19th top-flight title in impressive style, their recent record outside of Anfield may be of some concern to the German. Four losses and a draw in the Reds' last...

In recent years, there's been numerous examples highlighting how Arsenal have sought to copy, or even take from Leicester City's overperformance. There was the attempted move in 2016 to bring over newly minted Premier League winner Jamie Vardy for £22m, which the striker turned down, fearing he would be played out of position, against his natural strengths. And then only months ago, the Foxes' manager Brendan Rodgers was forced to publicly rule out any interest in taking over at the Emirates,...

News Aston Villa host Manchester United on Thursday night with both sides in need of three points for very different reasons. Villa have endured a torrid return to league football following the three-month break - picking up just two points from a possible 15. Their poor form has seen their winless run stretch to nine Premier League games, and with just five games remaining they find themselves stuck in the bottom three. United have been in fine form since the arrival of Fernandes in January...

Fair "With his speed he could be a very good 100 metres runner, another Usain Bolt," Schalke 04 U19 manager Norbert Elgert. "Meep meep meep meep' the Bayern roadrunner comes ahead and steals the ball!" Thomas Müller. Two separate quotes, with two slightly different ways of getting their point across, about two different players. But the same attribute as a theme in both - speed which almost no-one else playing football is capable of matching - about two footballers in Leroy Sané and Alphonso...

kins Brentford striker Ollie Watkins is being closely monitored by Premier League sides Southampton and Crystal Palace ahead of a potential transfer in the upcoming window. Watkins, who is the joint top scorer in this season's Championship with 23 goals, has been pivotal in Brentford's push for the Premier League, with the Bees sitting third in the league - five points off an automatic promotion place. The 24-year-old's prolific form has reportedly caught the eye of a number of Premier League...

Naby Keïta has endured a frustrating two years at Liverpool. That’s not to say his spell at the club so far hasn’t been successful; a Champions League and a Premier League winner’s medal isn’t a bad return after just 24 months with a club. However, his influence on the team certainly hasn’t been as great as he, or many fans, would have hoped when he accepted Liverpool's famous number eight shirt, previously worn by Steven Gerrard no less, back in 2018. It was Keïta's sublime through-ball that...

It's hard not to love Riyad Mahrez, isn't it? He came from absolutely nowhere, helped keep Leicester in the top-flight and dragged the Foxes to an unbelievable title victory. Now, he's rocking it up at Manchester City and best thing of all, he's done it all with a smile on his face. The Algerian may not be the star name in a City side packed full of mouthwatering talent, but he's undoubtedly one of the most dangerous components of a team that's been a rampant attacking force over the last few...

Serie A giants Napoli are understood to be willing to offload in-demand centre back Kalidou Koulibaly should their move for Lille forward Victor Osimhen be finalised. Gli Azzurri are currently locked in negotiations with the Ligue 1 outfit over the prospective transfer of forward Osimhen, with a move for the highly-rated youngster potentially costing the Italian outfit as much as £70m. The Napoli man could be available for £70m this summer The two clubs are said to be around £20m apart in...

Tottenham defender Danny Rose has admitted that his days in north London 'are numbered' as he heads into the final year of his contract. The 30-year-old has been associated with Spurs for 13 years after opting to leave Leeds United when he was a teenager, playing 156 Premier League games for the club in that time. Mourinho handing Rose the ball But since José Mourinho was appointed as manager in November, replacing the sacked Mauricio Pochettino, Rose has been forced out of the first team...

Former Liverpool striker Michael Owen has pointed towards Divock Origi's contract extension as a factor in why the club didn't push the boat out for Timo Werner. Despite being heavily tipped to land RB Leipzig striker Werner for several months, Liverpool decided against a deal and were left to watch on as the player joined Premier League rivals Chelsea instead. With a release clause of £53m, many were surprised Liverpool backed away from the deal. Werner's 28 Bundesliga goals this season hint...

Liverpool fans were dealt a mini-blow in the transfer market this summer, a hint of a reminder that not everything can go their way in the 2019/20 season. If, somehow, you haven't noticed – Timo Werner, long linked with a move to Anfield, went to Chelsea. Because Liverpool didn't really have the money to sort the deal out right now. Jurgen Klopp still wants to add a new dimension to his attack though, and the answer could already be at the club. Adding another elite striker in an already...

José Mourinho has said he knows what he would like to improve his squad in the transfer window, but insisted he doesn't need a dramatic rebuild to take the club to new heights. Having started promisingly under Mourinho, Spurs have hit a slump recently, and a 3-1 defeat to Sheffield United left them sitting in tenth place in the Premier League with their European hopes dwindling. Speaking to The Standard about potentially improving his squad in the weeks ahead, he said: “I don’t feel very...
