Barcelona are interested in resigning their former striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang as he struggles to fit in at Chelsea.
Aubameyang was signed by Chelsea in the summer while Thomas Tuchel was still in charge of the club, as fans looked forward to the German reuniting with his former Dortmund striker but five days later, Tuchel was sacked as Blues boss, making the transfer look like a very poor piece of business.
Aubameyang hasn’t scored for the Blues since October 11th and hasn’t featured for Chelsea since February 26th and it looks ever more likely that his time at Stamford Bridge will come ..read more

Man United are willing to go all out for Tottenham’s Harry Kane this summer as Erik ten Hag sees the England star as the perfect number nine for his team.

According to Football Insider, Ten Hag and his coaching staff regard Kane as the perfect number nine for their system and will only sign another option if Spurs refuse to let their record goalscorer go.

It is no secret that Manchester United need a striker in the summer but the Premier League giants are also likely to want to sign another midfielder.
The Red Devils are having a much-improved campaign during Erik Ten Hag’s opening season in charge but despite already winning the EFL Cup and going strong in the Europa League and FA Cup, as well as remaining on course to finish inside the league’s top four, at least two high profile signings are likely to be required once the summer window opens later this year.
Likely to prioritise a new striker, United have already been heavily linked with Tot ..read more

Harry Kane has never had a better excuse to leave Tottenham Hotspur than he does now.
That is the view of former Aston Villa and Liverpool attacker Stan Collymore, who believes the turmoil the Lilywhites are in could play into Kane’s hands when it comes to the Englishman sounding out a potential summer move.
With the exception of a handful of loan spells during his younger days, Kane, 29, has spent his entire career at Spurs but that could all be coming to an end.
The England international has just over a year left on his current deal and with the Londoners struggling on and off the pitch, it ..read more

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang’s decision to join the Barcelona squad in their dressing room to celebrate their recent 2-1 victory over Real Madrid was ‘shambolic’.
That is the view of former Aston Villa and Liverpool attacker Stan Collymore, who believes the Gabonese forward’s time in the Premier League is almost up.
Aubameyang, 33, left Barcelona and joined Chelsea last summer but despite the Blues being in desperate need of a new striker following their decision to allow Romelu Lukaku to rejoin Inter Milan, the 33-year-old has barely kicked a ball under Graham Potter.
Clearly out of favour with ..read more

Tottenham Hotspur face a major decision over the future of manager Antonio Conte.
The Italian tactician stunned the footballing world after he spoke to reporters in the wake of Spurs’ 3-3 draw against bottom-of-the-table Southampton last weekend and appeared to slam the team, as well as chairman Daniel Levy.
