s it It is fitting that in a season in which Juventus have largely underwhelmed, they look set to limp over the finish line in the Serie A title race. A ninth straight Scudetto was within the grasp as they lined up to take on struggling Udinese on Thursday but they did not get the victory required, falling to an embarrassing 2-1 defeat. The loss was systematic of a wider malaise that has been bubbling under the surface all year. Juventus will have to wait until Sunday for another chance to win...

Raheem Sterling's prospective sponsorship deal with adidas could increase the chances of the forward signing for Real Madrid in the future. The German sports brand manufacture Los Blancos' kit and have a history of convincing their athletes to sign for the La Liga giants. Sterling in action against Real pre-lockdown According to the Times, Sterling is set to sign with adidas when his current deal with Nike ends on 31 July. The Manchester City forward could earn as much as £10m per season if he...

The 2019/20 EFL Championship season drew to a close on Wednesday night when all 24 of the biggest clubs in Britain completed the 46-game campaign, which lasted a full 355 days from its 2 August kickoff. By the time the playoff final is contested, the campaign – which was halted in late March for three months as a result of the coronavirus pandemic – will have lasted a year and two days. One can only hope there is never another season like it. Leeds won the Championship title to secure a place...

If the coronavirus hadn't already made this Championship season particularly 'memorable', the action and drama we've seen on the pitch would certainly have been enough for 2019/20 to live long in the memory of football fans. Leeds finally overcame their promotion hoodoo, no team had been relegated ahead of the final round of fixtures - with ten clubs facing the drop - and Nottingham Forest somehow managed not to make the play-offs, despite having kicked off their final game against lowly Stoke...

Roma starlet Nicolo Zaniolo has emerged as a transfer target for Tottenham although it's unlikely a deal will be struck in the upcoming transfer window. The Italy international recently returned to the Roma first-team squad having suffered an ACL tear in a Serie A clash with Juventus at the start of 2020. He's marked his return with a pair of strikes in barely 100 minutes of action since the restart. Zaniolo scored off the bench in Roma's 6-1 win at SPAL last time out Zaniolo rose to...

Fireworks lit up the night sky before the second half was even over at Anfield on Wednesday. Having been made to wait an extra few months - on top of 30 years - Liverpool fans can be forgiven for getting the party started a little early. It has been an incredible, record-shattering season for the Jurgen Klopp's Reds, who finally got up close and personal with that most coveted piece of silverware, against a backdrop of pyrotechnics and banners. Every player and staff member pictured on the Kop...

Borussia Dortmund are willing to sell Jadon Sancho to Manchester United for the 'right price', although the deal could hinge on whether the Red Devils secure Champions League football on Sunday. Sancho enjoyed a highly productive 2019/2020 season, racking up 33 goal involvements in just 32 Bundesliga appearances. This came after he posted similarly impressive numbers during the 2018/2019 campaign. Sancho has probably played his final game for Borussia Dortmund Unsurprisingly his form has...

Calling all Premier League players over the age of 30. Are you tired of the stresses and strains of playing in the most competitive division in the world? Have you had enough of playing 1500 games over Christmas in the pissing rain and subzero temperatures? Do you like money - even if you probably don't deserve it? If you answered yes to any of these questions, you should consider a move to the Turkish Super Lig this summer. Here are eight Premier League ballers who could be doing just that in...

The digit which adorns the back of a shirt has become so much more than an efficient way of identifying which one of the 11 players charging about the pitch happens to be on the ball. For some, the number nine and ten may go down as the more iconic figures in footballing history, but the number seven shirt is almost unique in the sense that it is more readily associated with a player rather than a position. View this post on Instagram ? New kit. New number. ? A post shared by Arsenal Official...

opes Juventus blew the chance to secure their ninth straight Scudetto as a stoppage time goal earned relegation threatened Udinese an unlikely 2-1 victory over the Old Lady on Thursday night. Despite their lowly league position, the hosts started the game brightly but lacked cutting edge in the final third. Juventus improved as the first half progressed and eventually found a breakthrough on the stroke of half time when Matthijs de Ligt surged forward to fire a low drive into the back of the...

When the team sheets were released for Juventus' meeting with Lazio, Paulo Dybala's name was missing for the second match in a row. Ultimately, his Argentine compatriot Gonzalo Higuaín pulled out of the starting lineup with an injury during the warm up as Dybala took his place. Yet, in a game where defeat would have gone some way to reopening the title race, Maurizio Sarri had - initially - not turned to the lethal 26-year-old. Dybala teed up Cristiano Ronaldo for his second goal of the game...

k 38 Almost a year removed from when most of us were conjuring up initial FPL drafts at a frightening rate, the conclusion of the 2019/20 Premier League Fantasy Football campaign is finally upon us. In a season full of hasty wildcards, dilly dallying over the use of the bench boost and wondering how the f*ck one can even surpass the 100-point mark in a single gameweek, there's just one final push in a bid for some to claim FPL bragging rights. It's been a slog, but we're nearly there....

France Football have announced that the Ballon d'Or will not be awarded this year, and we at 90min think that is a damn shame. Obviously the pandemic's disruption of the football calendar is a fairly fair reason as to why it's not being handed out, but still, we feel sorry for big Robert Lewandowski. The guy who has scored (roughly) a trillion goals in 2020. He deserves a ball-shaped prize for that. So, as some sort of consolation prize for Lewa, 90min's editorial team have decided to do our...

Newcastle United have launched their new Puma home kit for the 2020/21 season, which will be worn for the first time on Sunday when the Magpies conclude the current Premier League campaign at St James’ Park against new champions Liverpool. Compared to the thick-striped 2019/20 jersey, the new release incorporates much thinner black and white stripes. But it still retains the classic Newcastle look and will be paired with black shorts and black socks, the latter of which will also feature a...

There are some Premier League players who feel like they've been around forever, others who burst on to the scene late in their careers, and then there are the players who you just totally forgot about. Everyone has that moment when they're looking through another team's lineup and they see a name that makes them go 'really?'. Here is a list of 10 players who give you that feeling, that are still playing in the Premier League. 1. Phil Jagielka Jagielka returned to his boyhood club last summer...

Newcastle United will reportedly attempt to lure Bournemouth striker Callum Wilson to St. James' Park if the Cherries suffer relegation from the Premier League this season. Wilson is Bournemouth's top goal scorer this campaign with eight in the top flight, but Eddie Howe's side go into the final day of the season sitting 19th in the table, three points adrift of Aston Villa and Watford. Wilson scored in Bournemouth's last game before lockdown, the opener in a 2-1 defeat to Liverpool...

Leeds United have defended their controversial decision to hold an open-bus title celebration outside Elland Road. The curtain came down on the Whites' season with a 4-0 home win over Charlton on Wednesday with the club already confirmed as Championship winners some time prior. Leeds fans congregated outside Elland Road on Wednesday night Despite club officials urging supporters to stay away from Elland Road, thousands gathered outside Leeds' stadium to celebrate the club's return to the top...

Leroy Sané let slip that Chelsea may have already secured a deal for Bayer Leverkusen star Kai Havertz, during his first press conference as a Bayern Munich player. Sané recently completed a €45m switch from Manchester City to Bayern, a deal he had desired for some time. Kai Havertz is one of the most sought after players in the world Die Roten are currently preparing for their Champions League round of 16 second leg against Chelsea next month and although he is not available for the tie, the...

So There was a look of anger and frustration etched across the face of Christian Pulisic as he attempted to dig Chelsea out of yet another hole against Liverpool on Wednesday. It may not have been anger at not starting the match as much as it was anger at the scoreline, seeing as it so often falls to Chelsea's attacking sparks to dig their wobbly defence and goalkeeper out of those holes. Chelsea were floundering at 3-0 down and looked vulnerable every time Liverpool surged into their half....

Bayern Munich chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has fired a warning to Liverpool, insisting that Thiago Alcantara, who has recently crowned 90min's best deep lying playmaker in the world, will not be sold on the cheap this summer. Thiago has just one year remaining on his current deal and has already indicated that he wants to depart the Bundesliga champions in the summer, and Liverpool have been strongly linked with a deal that some reports have claimed could cost the Reds as little as £22m....
