Moukoko: Fahrenhorst hails Borussia Dortmund wonderkid

The season has long been over for Manchester City - even before football's three-month hiatus - but that doesn't mean they're taking their foot off the pedal, as evidenced by their 5-0 victory over Burnley on Monday.

Bayern Munich 3-2 Borussia Dortmund: Kimmich delivers Supercup for Flick's men

As the cameras flash and the array of national flags tied around players' waists billow in the Lisbon air, there is a beaming, round face at the front of celebrations. Yet, instead of grass-stained shorts and socks, Casemiro is cheering on the team in a nifty pair of black suit trousers. The then 22-year-old hadn't made the squad for the 2014 Champions League final and was afforded just a smattering of appearances across the campaign, with the experienced names of Xabi Alonso and Sami Khedira...

Jele refuses to take credit after firing Orlando Pirates into Caf Confederation Cup play-off round

lved Juventus and Barcelona are edging towards a part-exchange deal for Miralem Pjanic and Arthur that is tipped to be completed on 30 June, which would have been the official end of the 2019/20 season.

Chelsea boss Tuchel admits it's 'unfair' asking Hudson-Odoi to play wingback so often

Leicester City's performance against Brighton on Tuesday night was boring, tedious, dull, monotonous, unimaginative, uneventful, spiritless, sterile, unstimulating, stodgy...and probably some other bad words too. They might have won a point - thanks to the penalty saving heroics of Kasper Schmeichel - but the feeble display from Brendan Rodgers' side continued a worrying pre-lockdown trend. Failure to beat the Seagulls means that Leicester have now won just three out of 11 Premier League games...

Two questions started popping up a lot on social media timelines and groupchats on Tuesday afternoon. What the hell are Barcelona doing? And...why? In case you missed it, they're selling Arthur – one of their brighter talents – to Juventus for about €80m. Arthur Melo, a good footballer. A good footballer who Barcelona are trying to force out of the door because they're skint. Sorry, that should read: they're 'selling' Arthur to Juventus for 'about €80m'. Because in reality they're swapping him...

Alessia Russo in the perfect position to be England's long-term 'number nine'

It's easy to forget sometimes, but like us mere mortals, all professional footballers had idols in the past, who they worshipped and whose actions they reenacted on muddy fields as starry-eyed children. For the current generation of stars, the usual suspects of David Beckham, Ronaldinho, Ronaldo, and Zinedine Zidane are often cited as inspirations... But perhaps not for hipsters like Bruno Fernandes. The Portuguese midfielder is a wonderfully-gifted playmaker and given his style of play and...
