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...

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.

Only the beginning. Welcome to the family, @MarcusRashford! We’re so proud of what you...

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...

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...

When Liverpool announced the signing of Fabinho in 2018, it came as a bolt out of the blue. It wasn't that the team who had just reached the Champions League final didn't need to strengthen. If they were to take the next step and consistently challenge for titles, the need for reinforcements was patently obvious. But in a summer characterised by drawn out soap-opera transfer sagas, this one was completed with no fuss and no prior warning. The Reds were put down in Kiev, and within 48 hours,...

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...

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,...

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...

Benfica's Ruben Dias is a defender under consideration by Manchester City ahead of the summer transfer window, with Pep Guardiola making defensive reinforcements a 'priority'. Reigning champions City are all but certain to finish 2019/20 in second after failing to keep pace with runaway leaders Liverpool. While the Citizens boast a league-high 71 goals scored, they have only the fourth-best defensive record and have lost seven times so far this season. Manchester City's defence has fallen...

Henderson's performances have seen him billed as capable of rivalling David de Gea for a starting spot at United next...

ible Burnley Football Club have issued a statement condemning fans that organised a plane carrying a banner that read 'white lives matter Burnley' to fly overhead during the Clarets' Monday night Premier League clash with Manchester City.

Burnley quickly promised to issue lifetime bans to those responsible, while...

17:00, Saturday 20 June 2020. The scores from the 15:00 Championship kick-offs begin to the filter through; second place West Bromwich Albion manage just a point at home to city-rivals Birmingham, third place Fulham slip up at home to Brentford, while Nottingham Forest and Preston who occupy fifth and sixth place respectively can muster just a point.
