Zinedine Zidane is close to a return to management according to reports as the former Real Madrid boss is said to be “one step away” from taking over at Bayern Munich.  The German giants are set to part ways with Thomas Tuchel at the end of the season as the Bundesliga club have experienced a poor campaign under the former Chelsea boss. Bayern have failed to defend their league title and were dumped out of the DFB-Pokal early. The Champions League is their last hope of winning a trophy and should they win it, it would give the squad a major boost ahead of the 2024/25 campaign with a new c ..read more

When Michail Antonio gave West Ham United the lead, it looked like the Hammers could turnaround the tie and make something out of it. However, they suffered elimination from the competition after losing 3-1 on aggregate, with Jeremie Frimpong scoring for the visitors at the London Stadium. During the game, there was drama between the staff members of both the teams. Antonio and Jonathan Tah got into an altercation on the sidelines, which resulted in red ca ..read more

The Yorkshire Evening Post reports that Leeds United will probably be able to reclaim about £10 million for Brenden Aaronson during the summer transfer window. According to the newspaper, if the American international is sold this summer after joining the Elland Road team for a fee over £25 million, the Whites would probably suffer a significant loss. Despite Aaronson’s lackluster performance on his season-long loan at Union Berlin in the Bundesliga, Daniel Farke’s team may still be able to sell him this summer for a price close to £10 million due to his age and contract duration. This summer ..read more

According to reports, Newcastle United and Chelsea are considering moves for Arsenal goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale. Even though the England international was the Gunners’ undeniable top player for the previous two seasons, 2023–24 has been a different tale for him. Just 11 appearances in all competitions have been given to Ramsdale; two of the six came in the Premier League because David Raya was unable to play against Brentford, his parent club. In addition, the 25-year-old has only had two starts since the beginning of the year, and it’s likely that he won’t feature for Arsenal ag ..read more

Both West Ham and Newcastle have endured difficult but reasonable campaigns in the end, during 2023/24. The Hammers were knocked out of the Europa League by unbeaten favourites, Bayer Leverkusen, but on another night could’ve sprung a huge surprise. Under David Moyes they’ve flattered to deceive for long periods, winning some matches whilst playing superbly well, and then rolling over in games they should’ve won. The style of football seemingly hasn’t sat well with the East London faithful either, and there’s very much a feeling of a manager coming to the end of his tenure now. More Stories ..read more

It’s been a long, hard road for Sandro Tonali at Newcastle United, but the end is in sight for the Italian. Banned for 10 months because of illegal betting activity, the attacking midfielder has been allowed to train with the Magpies first-team squad to keep up his fitness ready for the start of next season when his ban will end. Eddie Howe has been at great pains in his interviews when talking about Tonali to suggest that the player has been punished enough already, indirectly putting pressure on those who will decide if further betting activity, uncovered whilst he was a Newcastle player, is ..read more

As we rush headlong into the summer and the European Championship, Bukayo Saka could find his England place under threat according to Stan Collymore. Saka has been a key part of Arsenal’s rise to the top of the Premier League, and he will be needed to continue to help inspire his team-mates to a long-awaited title victory. Though Man City are now in the box seat, the Gunners are far from out of the picture, and there’s bound to be plenty more twists and turns to come before the curtain comes down on the 2023/24 season. One issue that Mikel Arteta appears to have with Saka is a niggling injury ..read more
