  • Paul in good time

    Paul Pogba is considering his next transfer move as he enjoys a holiday in the United States, writes Kealan Hughes.

    Manchester United announced Pogba’s departure this week – ending a six-year spell at the club.

    Pogba, 29, ran down his contract at the club and is now available on a free transfer amid interest from Juventus, Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain.

    The midfielder is reportedly yet to make up his mind on who to join but will base his decision on football reasons, according to Sky Sports.

    Pogba is prepared to take his time as he is aware this could be the final big move of his career.

    The Frenchman is believed to have received a deal from former club Juventus, who have offered him £130,000 a week.

    It is possible Pogba will decide his future once he completes his holiday with pre-season around a month away.

  • Nu-go Tavares

    Arsenal are reportedly prepared to offload Nuno Tavares on loan after just one season.

    The Portuguese left-back was guilty of inconsistent performances when deputising for Kieran Tierney.

    And according to The Athletic, Tavares could be available for loan to aid his development.

    Though they state he could be on the move in January to give time to impress in the Europa League group stage.

  • Tammy says he’s joining Liverpool

    Tammy Abraham has sent Liverpool fans into a frenzy after making a comment to Trent Alexander-Arnold during England training.

    Roma’s ex-Chelsea striker, 24, sparked transfer rumours after telling the right-back: “I’m joining you guys next season.”

    His admission was captured in a video which has been shared across social media.

    Some Liverpool supporters are now convinced that he was hinting at a potential move to Anfield.

    One excited fan tweeted: “I want this to happen, we obviously need a target man for those crosses. I wanna see what Klopp cooks up with him.”

    Another said: “Would be a great signing!!”

    Abraham joined Roma on a five-year deal last summer for a fee of £34million.

    He made an instant impact upon his arrival in Italy and quickly cemented his spot in Jose Mourinho’s starting line-up.

    In 37 appearances this season he has scored 17 goals – making him the highest English scorer in a single Serie A season.

    His impressive form has attracted the attention of various Premier League clubs, including Arsenal.

  • Less of Maur could mean Mour of Jose

    PSG are lining up Jose Mourinho to replace Mauricio Pochettino.

    The French champions are on the verge of parting company with boss Pochettino, who has walked a tight rope for the last two seasons.

    And SunSport understands the Parisians are contemplating replacing the Argentine with the resurgent Mourinho.

    The Portuguese breathed new life into his floundering managerial career with Serie big boys Roma last season.

    The Special One guided the Italians to Europa Conference League glory last month and a sixth-place league finish.

    And the 59-year-old’s stellar debut season at the Stadio Olimpico has promoted PSG chiefs to weigh up a summer swoop for his services.

  • Chelsea still lead hunt for Jules

    Chelsea are convinced they will sign Sevilla star Jules Kounde in the upcoming summer transfer window.

    The Blues missed out on Kounde last year after the LaLiga outfit raised their asking price at the eleventh hour.

    But Chelsea have retained their interest in the centre-back as boss Thomas Tuchel looks to finally secure his services.

    According to ABC Sevilla, the West Londoners are hopeful they can reach an agreement in the region of £43million-£51m.

    The Andalusians were adamant in 2021 that the France international wouldn’t be sold unless his £68m release clause was activated, but now it looks like they’ve got their man.

  • Yannick goer?

    Atletico Madrid wideman Yannick Carrasco could be targeted by a £51million Newcastle bid.

    The Magpies’ interest in the 55-cap Belgian fell down in January because they were fighting relegation.

    But AS claim the 28-year-old could move to St James’ Park if his €60million (£51m) release clause is triggered.

    Ton manager Eddie Howe is set to be backed by the Saudi-based Public Investment Fund in the summer transfer window in his bid to sign his priority targets.

  • Newcastle target Carrasco

    Newcastle are set to relaunch a £51million offer to land Atletico Madrid ace Yannick Carrasco after securing Premier League status.

    Carrasco was a target during the January transfer window, only for the deal to break down due to the Magpies’ threat of relegation at the time.

    According to AS, however, the forward could move to St James’ Park if his €60million (£51m) release clause is triggered.

    Manager Eddie Howe is set to be backed by the Saudi-based Public Investment Fund in the summer transfer window in his bid to sign his priority targets.

  • PSG want the special one

    Jose Mourinho is being lined up to replace Mauricio Pochettino at Paris Saint-Germain.

    The French champions are on the verge of parting company with Pochettino, who has been walking a tight rope for the last two seasons.

    The Portuguese breathed new life into his floundering managerial career with Serie big boys Roma last season.

    The Special One guided the Italians to Europa Conference League glory last month and a sixth-place league finish.

    And the 59-year-old’s stellar debut season at the Stadio Olimpico has promoted PSG chiefs to weigh up a summer swoop for his services.

  • Tevez retires

    Carlos Tevez has announced his retirement at the age of 38.

    The striker had an illustrious career spanning seven clubs and three continents but has decided now is the right time to hang up his boots.

    The Argentine has been without a club since leaving Boca Juniors at the end of last season, declaring he was mentally unfit to continue at the club.

    Tevez believed he was capable of playing for several more years but revealed he rejected the opportunity to sign for a new club, turning down offers from MLS.

    The former Manchester United star said he found it difficult to continue playing after the death of his adopted father Segundo Raimundo in February 2021 – whom he described as his biggest fan.

    He said in a statement: “I have retired, it is confirmed.

    “They offered me many things, including from the United States. But that’s it, I have given everything.

    “Playing the last year was very difficult but I was able to see my old man. I stopped playing because I lost my number one fan.”

  • Mata could join Prem rival

    Manchester United outcast Juan Mata is considering a move to another Premier League team, according to reports.

    The Spaniard, 34, is set to leave Old Trafford when his contract expires at the end of this month, writes Emillia Hawkins.

    Since joining the Red Devils in 2014 he made 285 appearances and scored 51 goals – but he has hardly featured in the squad this season.

    While his next club is currently unknown, The Times have reported that he could be willing to stay in England.

    And he is refusing to rule out a potential move to a Premier League rival.

  • Potential England line up

    England are set to face Hungary in the Nations League on Saturday at the Puskas Arena.

    And SunSport can reveal Gareth Southgate’s potential line up.

    There may be a back three of Harry Maguire, Conor Coady and Kyle Walker.

    Declan Rice will sit in front of them and allow wingers, Bukayo Saka and Trent Alexander-Arnold to roam.

    Conor Gallagher will make his second start for the Three Lions, behind the trio of Mason Mount, Harry Kane and Jarrod Bowen.

    It would be Bowen’s debut for his country.

  • Mane to follow Senegal wishes

    Wantaway Liverpool star Sadio Mane has sensationally revealed he will do what Senegal people want when he was told ’60 to 70 per cent’ believe he should leave the club.

    The Senegalese star, 30, shocked reporters at a press conference on Friday while on international duty with his country.

    He gave the clearest indication yet that he could be leaving for Bayern Munich this summer.

    He said: “I respect the fans and team but 60 to 70 per cent of Senegalese want me to leave Liverpool? I’ll do what they want.”

    Mane was quizzed about his next move as Senegal prepare for a African Cup of Nations qualifier against Benin on Saturday.

    And his stunning quote will certainly have sent shockwaves around Anfield.

    Mane has so far refused to sign a new deal with the Premier League giants – and has just 12 months remaining on his current contract.

  • Pogba considering future on holiday

    Paul Pogba is considering his next transfer move as he enjoys a holiday in the United States, writes Kealan Hughes.

    Manchester United announced Pogba’s departure this week – ending a six-year spell at the club.

    Pogba, 29, ran down his contract at the club and is now available on a free transfer amid interest from Juventus, Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain.

    The midfielder is reportedly yet to make up his mind on who to join but will base his decision on football reasons, according to Sky Sports.

    Pogba is prepared to take his time as he is aware this could be the final big move of his career.

    The Frenchman is believed to have received a deal from former club Juventus, who have offered him £130,000 a week.

    It is possible Pogba will decide his future once he completes his holiday with pre-season around a month away.

  • Aaron Hickey blow

    Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta is said to have “doubts” over the potential signing of Bologna star Aaron Hickey.

    That gives a major boost to other suitors, such as Brentford who are also hoping to land Hickey in the summer.

    The Gunners want the left-back to cover for fellow Scot Kieran Tierney, whose injury problems continue to plague his career.

    Meanwhile, the Bees only have one pair of recognised senior full-backs, with Rico Henry their only natural option on the left side of Thomas Frank’s back five.

    According to the Mirror, there are ‘doubts’ over the interest Arsenal are said to be expressing in the 19-year-old.

  • Pulisic could replace Mane, say reports

    Liverpool are keeping tabs on Chelsea ace Christian Pulisic as they prepare to lose Sadio Mane to Bayern Munich.

    According to Sky Sports Germany reporter Florian Plettenberg, Bayern sporting director Hasan Salihamidzic has held talks with Mane’s agent over a possible move in the summer.

    Reds boss Jurgen Klopp has drawn up a four-man shortlist to replace the star forward, according to the MailOnline.

    One of Klopp’s targets is Pulisic, who is rated at around £60million and is reportedly keen for a new challenge after an underwhelming season at Stamford Bridge.

    Liverpool have also been linked with Bayern’s Serge Gnabry and Villarreal’s Arnaut Danjuma

  • Lewandowski could force his way out

    Robert Lewandowski could leave Bayern Munich for as little as £20million if he invokes a rarely-implemented FIFA rule, writes Chisanga Malata.

    The prolific Poland international is keen to leave the German champions this summer after eight seasons at the Allianz Arena.

    Bayern are said to want to sell Lewandowski, 33, for £27m but could, according to BILD, be forced to accept significantly less than their asking price due to the ‘Webster Rule’.

    Credit: Getty

    The rule permits players over the age of 28 to buy themselves out of their contracts so long as they’re at least two years into their deal.

    Lewandowski’s current contract with the Bavarians is set to expire next summer and is reportedly worth £20m.

  • Tavares available on loan

    Arsenal are reportedly prepared to offload Nuno Tavares on loan after just one season.

    The Portuguese left-back was guilty of inconsistent performances when deputising for Kieran Tierney.

    And according to The Athletic, Tavares could be available for loan to aid his development.

    Though they state he could be on the move in January to give time to impress in the Europa League group stage.

  • Villa sign Robin Olsen

    Aston Villa have confirmed the permanent transfer of goalkeeper Robin Olsen.

    Olsen joined Villa on loan from Italian side AS Roma in January, after the conclusion of a separate loan spell at Championship side Sheffield United during the first half of the season.

    The club’s statement said: “Aston Villa is pleased to announce the signing of Robin Olsen for an undisclosed fee. 

    “The Swedish goalkeeper joins from AS Roma on a permanent deal having spent the second half of last season on loan at Villa Park. 

    “The experienced international, capped over 50 times by his country, has represented clubs in Sweden, Greece, Denmark and in Italy across his career and has previously played Premier League football with Everton. 

    “Olsen made his Villa debut on the final day of last season at Manchester City.”

    Although officially undisclosed, Fabrizio Romano has reported the fee for the goalkeeper is £3million.

  • Ronaldo snubbed Players’ Player of the Year award

    Cristiano Ronaldo was snubbed by his Manchester United team-mates as David de Gea won the Players’ Player of the Year award.

    The 37-year-old superstar Ronaldo had an admirable individual season, scoring 24 goals in all competitions.

    However goalkeeper De Gea, 31, took home the prize after playing every single minute of United’s league campaign.

    The Spaniard was named man of the match seven times during a disappointing overall campaign for the Red Devils.

    Ronaldo saved the bacon of his United team-mates several times, including a sensational hat-trick against Norwich to avoid an embarrassing result.

    He scored six vital goals in seven Champions League games, but it wasn’t enough to get through Atletico Madrid in the last-16.

    In the end, only Golden Boot award winners, Mo Salah and Son Heung-min, scored more than the Portuguese captain.

  • Faith in Jesus

    Arsenal are increasingly confident of sealing a deal for Manchester City ace Gabriel Jesus.

    But manager Mikel Arteta is scaling back on his plans for a major spending spree after initially targeting up to seven new transfers.

    Now Arteta may have to settle for just three new faces as the Gunners count the cost of missing out on Champions League qualification.

    And that will leave the Spanish tactician relying on many of the players who came up just short in the fight with Tottenham for a fourth place finish last season.

    Arteta has told technical director Edu that he requires a squad of 22 outfield players to cope with the extra demands of Europa League football next term.

    The former Manchester City coach currently has just 16, although Eddie Nketiah is expected to accept the offer of a new £100,000-a-week deal to keep him at the Emirates for another five years

  • Tottenham tight on Bergwijn

    Spurs are continuing to demand up to £20million for Steven Bergwijn, say reports.

    The winger’s preference is a move to Dutch champions Ajax.

    The Eredivisie winners are confident Bergwijn wants to join them as he targets regular first-team football ahead of the World Cup in Qatar later this year.

  • Foden out of England squad

    Gareth Southgate has revealed Phil Foden is one of three players not fit to play in England’s clash against Hungary tomorrow.

    The Manchester City star will sit out of the Nations League fixture after returning a positive Covid-19 test.

    Foden has been pictured in England training this week, while Tomori and Guehi both arrived nursing minor knocks.

    Three Lions boss Southgate is hopeful all three are back in contention for Tuesday’s game against Germany.

    He said: “Fikayo and Marc Guehi both arrived with injuries but they’re progressing well.

    “They won’t be involved in tomorrow’s game but there’s a chance of involvement against Germany.

    “Phil Foden unfortunately has tested positive for COVID so he’s had to leave. Hopefully he’ll be able to meet up when we come back from Germany.”

  • Lukaku longs for the San Siro

    Chelsea star Romelu Lukaku is reportedly forcing a sensational return to Inter Milan less than a year after returning to Stamford Bridge.

    The Blues forked out a club-record £97.5m fee to bring Lukaku back last summer.

    And according to Sky Sports, Lukaku wants to head back to the San Siro on a loan deal.

    Lukaku’s representatives will meet with the club on Tuesday to discuss a move, claims Sky in Italy.

  • Nou kit

    Barcelona have released next season’s playing shirt… and it’s very different.

    The broke Spanish giants are RENTING OUT their pitch this month in a desperate bid to bring in some cash.

    The sensational report comes from El Chiringuito, who claim that Barca fans will be able to pay for the right to play at the famous ground next week.

    The cash-strapped Blaugrana will be allowing 60-minute matches and charge £255 per player.

  • Newcastle target Carrasco

    Newcastle are set to relaunch a £51million offer to land Atletico Madrid ace Yannick Carrasco after securing Premier League status.

    Carrasco was a target during the January transfer window, only for the deal to break down due to the Magpies’ threat of relegation at the time.

    According to AS, however, the forward could move to St James’ Park if his €60million (£51m) release clause is triggered.

    Manager Eddie Howe is set to be backed by the Saudi-based Public Investment Fund in the summer transfer window in his bid to sign his priority targets.
