able Real Madrid held on for a hugely important 2-1 victory at high-flying Real Sociedad that sees them now top La Liga on head-to-head record over rivals Barcelona. After an uneventful opening half hour, Karim Benzema saw his left-footed shot saved by Álex Remiro from close range. There were few chances created before half time, apart from a Vinícius effort which was saved comfortably. Los Blancos started the second half with an attacking focus and soon won a penalty through Diego Llorente's...

tory Inter returned to Serie A action with a slender 2-1 victory over Sampdoria on Sunday night, reducing the gap on league leaders Juventus to six points. Christian Eriksen fired an early warning shot when his tap-in was ruled out for an offside in the build-up, but the visitors would soon find themselves a goal down after Inter transitioned efficiently - with their front three combining majestically - to work the opening for Romelu Lukaku, who made no mistake from close range. Lautaro...

Chelsea have rejected an offer for Jorginho from Juventus which would have seen Miralem Pjanic heading to Stamford Bridge. Former Blues boss Maurizio Sarri is keen on reuniting with Jorginho after the two spent a season together in London – and three seasons together before that at Napoli – but the club have rejected the Old Lady's offer as they aren't interested in taking 30-year old Pjanic to Stamford Bridge. Frank Lampard's side have wasted no time recruiting for next season and have...

The Naples side have disappointed so far this season and will use the break as a chance to refresh and come back rejuvenated, aiming for Champions League...

Liverpool extended their lead at the top of the Premier League to 23 points on Sunday evening, but were held to a dire 0-0 draw at Goodison Park. As has been the case with most games so far, the season's third Merseyside derby got off to a pretty sluggish start. The artificial fans could do little to mask the sleepy, exhibition tempo, although a slick Liverpool counter-attack just after the half-hour mark might have, had Roberto Firmino not dragged his shot wide. Roberto Firmino and Andre...

Borussia Dortmund striker Erling Haaland has heaped praise on teammate Gio Reyna, insisting the American has the potential to become one of the world's best. The 17-year-old only made his senior debut in January but has already established himself as a core part of Lucien Favre's squad. He made his first Bundesliga start in Saturday's 2-0 win over RB Leipzig, bagging his first assist for Haaland's opening goal.

ound Chelsea came from behind to secure an important victory over Aston Villa at Villa Park on Sunday afternoon, with goals from Christian Pulisic and Olivier Giroud cancelling out Kortney Hause's opener. Chelsea began the match strongly and Mason Mount came close early on with a fierce left-footed drive which was well saved by Villa keeper Orjan Nyland. On the stroke of half time though, against the run of play, Villa's centre-half Kortney Hause bundled home after a goalmouth scramble. ? ???...

News Milan travel to Lecce on Monday night in both clubs' first league match since the postponement of Serie A. Stefano Pioli's side face an uphill battle to qualify for next season's Europe League, while Lecce are fighting for survival.

Stefano Pioli instructing his side Milan, enduring yet another mediocre season, sit in...

The football might be back, but the transfer nonsense is still coming in thick and fast. Chelsea bidding £50m for Dean Henderson? Go on then, why not. In case you need a short refresher with English football literally just back on our screens this week, Sheffield United have surpassed just about every expectation we might possibly have had of them upon their return to the top flight - and at the heart of all their success has been Henderson. The keeper, having played a starring role in getting...

Barcelona have confirmed that Frenkie de Jong has injured his calf, likely ruling him out of their next game against Athletic Club – and possibly more games down the line. De Jong joined Barcelona from Ajax last summer for £67.5m. Despite the club's change in manager mid-way through the campaign, the 23-year-old has remained a regular fixture of the side, missing just three games across all competitions this season. Only one player has featured in more games for Barcelona this season than...

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has hit out at the government for their dealing of the coronavirus pandemic in the UK, claiming the situation in his home country of Germany looks like an entirely different planet. The UK has suffered over 42,000 deaths as a result of the virus, with only Brazil (47,869) and USA (120,688) having worse death tolls. Germany, however, has endured just shy of 9,000 fatalities. The Bundesliga was able to return back in May due to Germany's efficient dealing of the...

He's been one of the few silver linings in the dark cloud that is West Ham's Premier League season, but it looks likely that Jeremy Ngakia will be on the way out of the London Stadium after just five appearances for the Hammers. The 19-year-old right back looks to be saying farewell to the east London side amidst heavy speculation that he is being courted by some of Europe's top clubs. He has already rejected a new three-year deal worth £5,000 a week and unless a short term deal is agreed by...

ades Newcastle returned to Premier League action at an empty St James' Park with a thumping 3-0 victory over ten-man Sheffield United on Sunday afternoon. The one person who Newcastle should hope their chances fall to - but in truth do not want their chances to fall to - is Joelinton. When he had a one-on-one at 0-0, the degree to which he fluffed it was impressive even by his standards. Joelinton has scored a Premier League goal. Yes, you read that correctly. pic.twitter.com/fnsbXbQZnZ — 90min...

It's happening. It's finally happening. After 13 of the longest months in club history, Ruben Loftus-Cheek is back and has been named in the starting lineup for Sunday's meeting with Aston Villa. Here's our team for #AVLCHE! ? pic.twitter.com/I6sHEmwI8u — Chelsea FC (at ?)

Since last summer, Leeds have been playing like a team possessed. Determined to shake off their growing reputation as the EFL's resident bottle merchants after throwing away the title last term and losing to Derby in the playoffs, prior to the break they were looking unbeatable. Five wins on the spin without conceding a single goal had seen them recover had seen them recover from a frail February, and they sat a point clear at the top of the division - with seven points between them and third....
