Mwasa, Aiyee: KMC FC part ways with duo in current transfer window

West Ham remain interested in signing Barcelona's Moussa Wagué this summer, with one report stating he is close to a move away from Camp Nou. The Senegal international joined the Catalan giants from K.A.S Eupen back in 2018 but has failed to make the grade in La Liga. The 21-year-old was promoted to the first-team under former manager Ernesto Valverde, yet his struggles saw him sent out on loan to Ligue 1 side OGC Nice for the second half of the season. Wague made just five appearances for...

Video: ZeBet Match Week 17 Preview

It sounds weird to say there's hope for Arsenal fans after their eighth-placed finish, but...there is? Kinda? A bit? They looked a much more potent attacking side after the mid-season restart, while being much improved at the back. That's about all you can ask from a football team. Here's an evaluation of the Gunners' 2019/20 season (so far), with an overall grade for the report card...

Manchester City boss Guardiola reveals reaction when Liverpool won Premier League title

It has been almost a year since Moise Kean joined Everton, a signing which sparked excitement in the blue half of Merseyside. The second youngest goalscorer in Italian national team history, his time at Juventus placed a lot of expectation on the Italian starlet's shoulders. Eight goals for the Italian champions in 21 games, two goals in two Italy internationals. All as a teenager. His debut season in England didn't go to plan, ending with just two goals in 33 (25 from the bench) appearances...

The 26-year-old has previously been linked with a move to the Premier League following impressive performances in Turkey, and came to wider attention when he scored against England European...

Arteta defiant on Arsenal European qualification

Let's face it, Italian clubs are usually skint. No matter who they are, what they've won and who they're owned by, they love a deal that doesn't involve a fixed transfer fee (or better, a swap deal disguised as an unrelated purchase and sale that puts money on the books, see: Arthur/Pjanic). With Daniel Levy equally as keen to keep the budget tight where possible at Spurs, a deal between themselves and Inter could either be a match made in heaven. Or a complete disaster. With Antonio Conte's...

Who can win the Champions League and EURO double this year?

cial Exclusive - Former Tottenham midfielder Rafael van der Vaart has revealed his favourite moments in a Spurs shirt and how he cemented himself as a modern-day Lilywhite legend due to his impressive record against bitter rivals Arsenal. The Dutchman joined Spurs from Real Madrid on deadline day in the summer of 2010, signing for a mere £9.5m. He'd go on to enjoy two fruitful seasons in N17 - registering 46 goal contributions in 77 appearances - before the exit of Harry Redknapp and the...

Sane reflects on 'difficult' first year at Bayern Munich as he eyes Euro 2020 'dream' with Germany

mmer At a time when some of Europe's top clubs are still trying to figure out just how badly they have been impacted financially by the coronavirus, Chelsea have been making real moves in the transfer market as Frank Lampard looks to build a squad capable of challenging for league titles.

Manchester City table bid for West Ham captain Declan Rice

ndit Exclusive - Rafael van der Vaart has refused to backtrack on his recent assessment of Manchester United defender Harry Maguire - insisting his criticism is nothing personal. The Dutchman previously labelled Maguire as England's "worst player on the pitch" during their UEFA Nations League semi-final defeat to the Netherlands last June, and compared the centre-back to an amateur Sunday league player early in the 2019/20 season. His latest critique of the £80m man came after United's 5-2...

Former England striker Paul Mariner dies aged 68

There's a lot to dislike about strikers if you think about it. They always get the glory, most of them don't seem to do much running and they can often be prima donnas on the pitch. However, it's probably fair that they get cut a fair amount of slack as it's the most challenging position on the pitch. Centre-forwards spend most of their time isolated from their teammates, knowing that any missed chances will be greeted with a maelstrom of abuse from the crowd. At the turn of the last decade it...

Skelem: Kaizer Chiefs target joins Maritzburg United in swap deal

Juventus bring their 2019/20 league campaign to an end at home to Roma, where they will officially be crowned Serie A champions for a ninth consecutive time. Despite it sounding like complete dominance on paper, this season's Italian top flight has been closer than ever. Inter, Atalanta and Lazio have all given the champions a run for their money, but none could mount enough momentum to knock the Old Lady off their perch. In an up and down season for Maurizio Sarri that's seen his side succumb...

The club have just confirmed their new away kit for next season, and it's sure to be a hit. 2019/20 passed by with little reason to cheer about, as a meagre defence of their La Liga title saw them concede the trophy to rivals Real Madrid at the conclusion of the campaign. ?

2022 World Cup Asian Qualifiers Final Draw: Iran and South Korea in Group A, Japan and Australia in Group B

Are you aware of Tanguy Ndombele? Perhaps not, since he has barely featured this season since Jose Mourinho took charge at Tottenham, which has prompted very early talk of him leaving the club just 12 months on from joining. It was rightly deemed an almighty coup for Spurs to sign the highly rated midfielder from Lyon last summer, a deal that cost the club £54m, making him their record signing.
