So we all know that Newcastle are hopeful of coming into a little bit of money in the near future. Their Saudi Arabia-backed takeover is close to completion (unless, of course, it isn't) so the transfer rumours are already going wild. We've had rubbish, unfounded rumours of bids for Kylian Mbappé and Neymar, and now we've got a link to Bayer Leverkusen's Kai Havertz. Because of many requests. True: Kai Havertz can imagine to play for @ChelseaFC. True: there are already talks. But: @ChelseaFC...

News With the rest of Europe's top leagues almost back in business, the Bundesliga may start to fade into the background soon; with the title race done and the season almost over. There's still plenty to play for in the interim though, with the European spots still up for grabs and the relegation battle very much alive. Bayern Munich have more or less wrapped up the title, leading Borussia Dortmund by seven points with just four games to go, but they haven't taken their collective foot off the...

Bournemouth winger Ryan Fraser is likely to turn down a new contract with the Cherries in order to protect his chance to sign for a new club before next season. The 26-year-old has been subject to interest from a number of Premier League sides in the last 12 months and will leave Bournemouth for free this summer as it stands. 90min exclusively revealed last month that Arsenal, Everton and Tottenham are all monitoring his situation, and are preparing to offer the Scottish international a...

Manchester United are interested in a potential deal for Bayern Munich midfielder Corentin Tolisso this summer, with a French report suggesting the club have already started discussions with his representatives. They aren't alone in registering their interest for the Frenchman, however, with Inter also tempted by the player as they pursue midfield reinforcements of their own.

UEFA plan to resume both the Champions League and the Europa League in a new format in August, with both likely to take place in rescheduled 'mini-tournaments'. The Europa League final was originally set to be held in Gdansk on 27 May, but a suspension of play across all of Europe due to the coronavirus pandemic means that UEFA have needed to reschedule the latter stages. A number of round of 16 fixtures took place behind closed doors A report from ESPN states that UEFA are now planning to...

Role Fortuna Dusseldorf's Lutz Pfannenstiel and former PSG director Antero Henrique are among the candidates being considered by Newcastle's prospective new owners for the role of technical director. Pfannenstiel, who is famous for becoming the first footballer to play in all six continents, has been Fortuna's sporting director since their return to the Bundesliga in 2018/19, helping them to a finish mid-table in his first season despite working with a shoestring transfer budget. Former PSG and...

Arsenal. Defenders. Sigh. You're sick of reading about it. I'm sick of it knowing it. But most people are not sick of laughing about it. 90??? ?????????: Arsenal, Everton, Newcastle, West Ham & Wolves among a number of clubs to be considering a contract offer for Thiago Silva. ✍️? — 90min (@90min_Football) June 9, 2020 Arsenal's defence has been, let's be honest here, crap, for quite some time, and it needs fixing. This we can all agree on. Yet, at the base, it appears to be on the mend....

Be afraid Manchester City, be very afraid. A few days prior and the hopes of Arsenal supporters were cranked up a notch ahead of the return of the Premier League, as the Gunners cruised to a 6-0 win over Charlton in their first warm-up fixture. Granted, it was only Charlton, but that excuse can't be flipped on its head to describe their 3-2 loss to Brentford, another second tier outfit, who were fully deserving of their victory. ? We held our second behind closed doors friendly at Emirates...

opes Bayern Munich secured their place in the final of the DFB-Pokal with a 2-1 win over a battling Eintracht Frankfurt at the Allianz Arena on Wednesday night. Anyone who ludicrously thought an upset could be on the cards was quickly sinking into their sofa mere minutes into the clash, with Die Roten seeing an effort cleared off the line and Robert Lewandowski uncharacteristically missing the ball entirely when only a tap-in was needed to bag his 45th of the season. Powerful ? Passionate ❤️...

Manchester City will learn whether their appeal against a potential two-year Champions League ban will be successful sometime in the first half of July. UEFA had confirmed that the club were to be banned from the competition for the next two seasons over Financial Fair Play breaches back in February. They were also fined €30m (£25m) after they were found to have misled UEFA as well as breaking FFP rules. Manchester City told they will discover in July the outcome of their appeal against a...

Exclusive - Senior Manchester City players raised concerns over the need for a new voice in the backroom staff, with Juanma Lillo's appointment the result of months of consideration inside the club. City's confirmation of Lillo as Pep Guardiola's new assistant earlier this week means the former Real Sociedad and Vissel Kobe manager will join the Citizens' dugout once the season resumes next week. Guardiola's need for a new right-hand man was exacerbated back in December, when former number two...

Leicester City are keen to pursue their interest in January target Jannik Vestergaard, with the Foxes hopeful of signing the £25m-rated Southampton centre-back in the summer transfer window.

Shrewsbury have left no stone unturned in their criticism of Liverpool, slamming the club's decision to field an inexperienced, youthful side for their FA Cup clash back in February. An exhilarating fourth round tie at the New Meadow saw the Reds blow a two-goal lead against their League One opponents after a rousing comeback, granting the Shrews a memorable replay at Anfield. ? | An Open Letter to our #SalopianFamily pic.twitter.com/LsJF5im11F — Shrewsbury Town FC (@shrewsweb) June 10, 2020...

Next Pep Guardiola's forensic attention to detail is what makes him one of the world's most revered coaches. This level of thorough analysis requires a lot of work, so it's no surprise that Guardiola always assembles a talented backroom team when taking over a club. Working under the obsessive Spaniard must be tiring but it's also the best way imaginable to cut your managerial teeth. That's why so many of Pep's assistants have gone to achieve great things in the game. However, because his...

Carlo Ancelotti is number 13 in 90min's Top 50 Great Managers of All Time series. 'The Diva Whisperer', football's great avuncular uncle, Carletto's legacy (beyond winning a boatload of trophies) is his man-management skills. From Milan to Madrid to Munich, it seems almost no-one has a bad word to say about Ancelotti. He is the manager the very best love to play for. His detractors might say he has been in right place at the right time (with the right squads) but Ancelotti's great trick is...
