Carvalho has struggled with injuries in 2019/20, making just nine appearances in all competitions for Betis. The coronavirus-enforced break provided the 28-year-old with the chance to overcome his injury struggles and play some part in his side's season run-in, but he has been left on the bench...

Juventus have agreed a €80m fee with Barcelona for midfielder Arthur Melo, with Maurizio Sarri keen to build his midfield around the Brazilian, in a deal which is likely to be followed by Miralem Pjanic going the other way for around €10m less. Arthur has made 26 appearances in all competitions for Barcelona in 2019/20, but he has been linked with a move away. Serie A giants Juventus and Inter have continued to show an interest in him for a while, despite the fact that the Brazilian has made...

Liverpool won't officially become Premier League champions on Wednesday night, but they can move to within just two points of the title with a win over Crystal Palace. Though it was the most-watched Premier League game ever in Britain, the Reds' return against Everton in the Merseyside derby at the weekend played out like a drab pre-season friendly, with - perhaps predictably - neither team fulling settling back into the new normal. With that awkward, disjointed and discombobulated display out...

Manchester City hit five against Burnley at an empty Etihad on Monday night; the 17th time they've scored 5+ so in the Premier League since Pep Guardiola's arrival, a staggering nine times more than anyone else. Braces from Phil Foden and Riyad Mahrez alongside a David Silva strike guided the Citizens to a routine victory over the Clarets, 'closing' the gap on Liverpool to 20 points with eight games remaining. You just never know, eh? Phil Foden opened the scoring from distance in Monday...

ason Nice have confirmed the signing of French midfielder Morgan Schneiderlin from Everton in the most lockdown way you could ever imagine - a Zoom call. The French side have been pushing to sign Schneiderlin ever since football was postponed, and Everton were believed to be interested in striking a deal and getting his sizeable wages - around £100,000-a-week - off the books.

lub? After three long months, the Premier League is finally got back underway, with all the teams getting their first taste of the 'new normal'. Of course, the coronavirus-enforced break has meant that the 2019/20 campaign will run deep into summer, leading to much talk over how best to solve the issue of contracts. Typically, player deals would expire at the end of June, but due to the extenuating circumstances, clubs have been presented with the option to tie soon-to-be out of contract...

As the ball arced through the crisp Manchester air, with Fernandinho's booming pass echoing around the Etihad Stadium, Riyad Mahrez brought the hurtling object under control without breaking stride. On a night when misplaced passes and heavy panting dominated Burnley's brutal reintroduction to competitive play, Mahrez's effortless control throughout the game was only made more impressive by this contrast. With the ball now firmly under his spell, the Algerian winger drove at the rapidly...

Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford has joined up with Jay-Z's Roc Nation agency and worked with the company in his fight to provide free school meals for disadvantaged children in the UK. Rashford has done some outstanding work during football's absence, with perhaps his greatest accomplishment coming as he convinced the UK government to overturn their decision to halt the Free School Meals vouchers. Only the beginning. Welcome to the family, @MarcusRashford! We’re so proud of what you...

Premier League clubs are discussing a timetable for the summer transfer window at Tuesday’s shareholder meeting, in which a number of proposed options are on the table. Despite permission from FIFA to open the transfer window prior to the end of the season, the Premier League had not intended to kick off the summer market any sooner than the final day of the campaign, thereby minimising any distractions or unsettling of players and clubs. Yet a later start could mean a later finish and the...

ism In 2013, Kevin-Prince Boateng made headlines around the world when, while playing for AC Milan, he walked off the pitch in the face of racist abuse from fans during a friendly against lower-league side Pro Patria. Backed by his captain Massimo Ambrosini, Milan abandoned the game in support of their teammate, while Boateng was later appointed FIFA’s first global ambassador for its anti-discrimination taskforce. Boateng recounted the events of that day in Italy, tying them to the global...

Barcelona have stepped up their efforts to offload Philippe Coutinho by slashing their asking price to €70m, with the hope that the Brazilian will be sold before the start of July. Coutinho has shown flashes of brilliance during his loan spell with Bayern Munich in 2019/20, but his performances haven't done enough to convince the German giants to part ways with around £110m in order to make the move permanent. Coutinho hasn't done enough to convince Bayern to sign him permanently Barcelona's...

Utd Brazilian legend Ronaldo has jokingly offered Alexis Sanchez a chance to rediscover his form... at Real Valladolid. Since leaving Arsenal for Manchester United in January 2018, Sanchez has had a notoriously difficult time as a footballer, scoring just five times in 45 appearances for the Red Devils, before being loaned out to Serie A challengers Inter. The 31-year-old has struggled with injury in Milan, however, and has scored just once in 17 games. He looks set to return to Old Trafford...

Chelsea returned to action on Sunday with a 2-1 victory over Aston Villa and it was clear that despite the shaky start, Frank Lampard's side still retained a portion of the momentum they were gathering when the season was paused in March. While the current squad have arguably exceeded expectations this season with some eye catching performances, consistency - particularly in the offensive third - has been a problem and the arrival of big name attacking players this summer will, hopefully,...

Manchester United will give goalkeeper David de Gea the rest of the season to prove that he deserves to retain his place as the club's starting goalkeeper, with young Dean Henderson pushing to take his place. De Gea was guilty of a high-profile error on Friday as he allowed Steven Bergwijn's shot through his body in the 1-1 draw with Tottenham Hotspur - a mistake that was by no means unique in recent times. ? - "David de Gea will be extremely disappointed, he's got to save that!" Bergwijn...
