Liverpool are finally close to tying Dutch midfielder Georginio Wijnaldum down to a new long-term contract. Talks over a new deal for Wijnaldum have been rumbling on for what feels like an eternity, and given his current contract expires in 2021, unconvincing rumours of a potential move away have begun to emerge. Wijnaldum's current deal runs until 2021 Inter have been named as potential suitors, but neither Wijnaldum nor Liverpool have contemplated an exit and have both been confident a new...

Well, that happened. It couldn't have been a less enjoyable title coronation for Liverpool on Thursday, as Manchester City showed that there is perhaps not as much between the two sides as the now-20-point margin suggests. The Blues were all over the Reds like a nipping Sunday-morning headache, taking advantage of their uncharacteristic slackness and lethargy to run out 4-0 victors. The newly-crowned champions' level of performance has been heavily criticised (if not by manager Jurgen Klopp),...

Chelsea fell 3-2 to West Ham last time out Defending proved to be a real problem for...

Manchester United are still keen to press ahead with a move for Jadon Sancho this summer - despite reports they would not offer more than £50m for the player this week - and are prepared to lean on a recently withdrawn loan to help fund the move.

It's common knowledge that...

Lionel Messi has been tipped to leave Barcelona in 2021, the result of mounting problems at Camp Nou. The club’s finances are in a mess, there is criticism of the current board and how the club is run, and things only look like they will get worse before they get better. Messi has often been linked with moves away from Barça at various points in the past, but frustrations at the club’s growing shortcomings lend at least a degree of plausibility to this one. Does he go down with a sinking ship,...

Mason Greenwood Manchester United potential - Ole Gunnar Solskjaer praises 18-year-old striker after scoring 13 goals this season.

While the disappointment of Euro 2020 being pushed back for another summer is (still) a tough pill to swallow, letting the dust settle on that setback and actually examining the positives makes for good reading as far as England are concerned. With plenty of the squad that played in the 2018 World Cup now considered as the 'old guard', the Three Lions are set to embark on a new era in their history with a fine set of talent emerging that raises the excitement levels heading into the newly...

Tottenham Hotspur manager Jose Mourinho blasted VAR following his side’s 3-1 defeat to Sheffield United on Thursday night, having seen what would have been an equaliser to make it 1-1 controversially ruled out because of a handball in the build-up.

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp defended the attitude of his team in a prickly post-match interview following Thursday night’s 4-0 thrashing at the hands of Manchester City.

The Spanish striker - sorry, 'centre back' - converted a penalty in his 450th La Liga match for Real late in the second half after Getafe's Mathias Olivera brought down Dani Carvajal with a stray leg. Ramos has proved pivotal in Real's title charge since the resumption of play, looking excellent at the back alongside Raphael Varane - who had to be replaced by...

There is no better indication of the dearth of consistency in this season's Premier League than the fact that Leicester City remain in third place. Aside from Jurgen Klopp's all conquering Liverpool side, the only other team in the division that has shown itself to be deserving of a Champions League spot is Manchester City - who may be banned from competing in next season's competition. For a time, Leicester could count themselves among this elite group, but no more. They must now throw...

ions Manchester City exacted revenge over Liverpool with a comprehensive 4-0 victory over the Premier League champions on Thursday night. After being greeted with a guard of honour, the Reds looked hungry from the beginning and went close when Mohamed Salah's shot beat Ederson's dive, only to come off the post. But after Joe Gomez gave away a penalty for impeding Raheem Sterling's run, Kevin De Bruyne confidently swept the ball past Alisson to put the hosts in front. Welcoming the ?????????...
