Dani Olmo rules out Manchester City transfer

 Dani Olmo rules out Manchester City transfer Dani Olmo has ruled out a move to ‘big club’ Manchester City, claiming he is perfectly happy at RB Leipzig and looking forward to the season ahead. Dani Olmo was supposed to make his long-awaited big move out of Germany and sign for one of Spani’s elite or the top-four Premier League side in the summer. Despite plenty of speculation linking the 25-year-old Bundesliga star to many top clubs, he chose to remain at RB Leipzig. A decision that indeed surprised many, Olmo decided to sign a new four-year contract to stay at RB Leipzig and remain committed to the cause as one of their top players. Barcelona, Real Madrid and Manchester City were all interested at some stage in the Spaniard, but he chose a different direction. Despite signing that new contract, fresh links with Manchester City emerged in the last few days amid the situation with Lucas Paqueta. Pep Guardiola sought a new attacking midfielder to bolster his ranks and replace the d...

Lionel Messi has transformed a floundering Inter Miami side – now he can win a trophy for them.

 Inter Miami, once struggling at the bottom of the Eastern Conference in MLS, has experienced a remarkable turnaround since Lionel Messi joined the team. With Messi's incredible skills and the support of his teammates, Miami has won every game since his arrival and has advanced to the final of the Leagues Cup. Prior to Messi joining, Miami had struggled to score goals, managing only 22 in 22 MLS matches. However, with Messi's influence, they have scored an impressive 21 goals in just six Leagues Cup matches. While the Leagues Cup is a different tournament, it provides an opportunity for Miami to qualify for the CONCACAF Champions League. In the semi-final against Philadelphia Union, Miami displayed great efficiency, scoring four goals with just four shots on target. Messi himself scored a remarkable long-range goal, reminiscent of his strike against Mallorca in 2012. Nashville SC, Miami's opponent in the final, has faced tougher competition but is expected to be overcome by...

The real reason why Harry Maguire rejected the chance to join West Ham

 Ex-Premier League manager Sam Allardyce has revealed why Manchester United defender Harry Maguire rejected a move to West Ham. Asked about Maguire's destination before the transfer window closes, Allardyce stated on the No Tippy Tappy Football Podcast: "Manchester United. "He declined West Ham's offer. I have a close relationship with his agent. "I believe – without disrespecting West Ham, as I previously managed them – Maguire is seeking a more prominent opportunity, considering the challenges they faced last season at the lower end of the league."

Joseph Paintsil misses penalty, scores and receives red card as Genk exit Europa League

Genk needed to secure a victory against the Greek team after losing the initial leg 1-0 to have any chance of progressing to the next stage of the competition. The Belgian squad got off to an ideal start when they were granted a penalty following a foul on Paintsil inside the box. The Ghanaian winger stepped up to take the penalty but missed his first attempt. However, the referee ordered a retake after VAR detected that the Olympiacos goalkeeper had moved off his line before the ball was kicked. On his second try, Paintsil deceived the goalkeeper and scored, giving Genk the lead. However, he soon turned from hero to villain when he received a red card in the 65th minute. After a series of pulling and tugging with Olympiacos' left-back Quini, Paintsil kicked out, leading to a brawl. Once the situation was under control, the referee gave Quini a yellow card but sent off Paintsil for his reaction. Playing with one player down for the last 25 minutes, Genk conceded the equalizer in st...

Erik ten Hag backs Mason Mount for new role at Manchester United

  Erik ten Hag backs Mason Mount for new role at Manchester United  New Manchester United signing Mason Mount is taking on a deeper role than he has played in the past under Erik ten Hag, but the Dutchman is backing him to make a success of it. Mount went straight into the starting XI in the Red Devils’ Premier League opener against Wolves on Monday, a game which finished 1-0 to the home side at Old Trafford but saw them struggling to find their best form. Mount was in a midfield three with Casemiro deepest and Bruno Fernandes ahead of him, but the central midfield role is deeper than Mount has regularly played previously for Chelsea or England. Ten Hag thinks it will take time for the Englishman to adapt to the slightly different demands of the role, but has no doubt that the 24-year-old will manage it. ‘I think he can [play deeper],’ said Ten Hag. ‘Already, we have seen it in pre-season, but it’s what I’ve said, definitely we have to work on many facets of our game but also ...

What does Neymar have to do with Lukaku's future? Answered

 Romelu Lukaku is still at Chelsea, despite the club and the player's mutual desire to part ways. The Belgian striker has already seen his dream collapse largely due to his own actions. Inter Milan left the race to sign him after Lukaku entered talks with their most bitter rivals Juventus. According to Nizaar Kinsella, Juve's offer is still on the table after Chelsea verbally accepted a €37m bid plus €2.5m in add-ons. The only other offer Chelsea have received is from Saudi Pro League side Al Hilal who are prepared to pay €40m for the 30-year-old. Al Hilal have just completed a mammoth €90m deal to sign Neymar from PSG. If their offer is still active, it means that they plan to build a big-name front three with Neymar, Lukaku and ex-Barcelona winger Malcom. Still, Lukaku is yet to agree to either of those offers, with Chelsea waiting for his decision.

Endo can’t hide excitement at reuniting with former Stuttgart teammate at Anfield

 Every Liverpool fan will know that Wataru Endo has become our latest signing but perhaps few will be aware that he’s reuniting with a former teammate, inside his new dressing room. Speaking with liverpoolfc.com about Nat Phillips, our No.3 said: “Yes! We played together and we had German lessons together! I have a pretty good connection with him and, of course, I sent him a message before I arrived here. I think he can help me to join this club quickly”. The Reds loaned the defender to the German outfit in 2019 and he played alongside his Japanese teammate during this period, where they clearly forged a strong friendship together. It’s great to know that the 30-year-old has been sharing messages with Nat Phillips and that the Bolton Baresi has been such a good ambassador for our club, ahead of the new man signing his latest contract. With the need for new midfielders being so widespread, it’s expected that our latest arrival will be needed from the off by Jurgen Klopp and so we al...

Liverpool to bid, press hardest to sign £60million player

Liverpool remain heavily linked with Mali international and Crystal Palace star, Cheick Doucoure and are expected to submit a bid. According to  Football Insider , the Eagles are preparing to receive an offer from the Merseysiders, who have stepped up the interest in signing the African play breaker this summer. The London side want to hold on to their prized asset but have not completely shut the door on his departure. Chairman, Steve Parish, told  Sky Sports : “If people can make offers for your players, there’s nothing you can do about that, and we will look at those offers in light of what’s best for the club.” “Right now, it’s very, very close to the end of the window. It would have to be something unbelievable for us to even consider doing something, and we would also have to have a ready-made replacement that we think we could go and get.” As per The Evening  Standard , Liverpool will press the hardest to lure the 23-year-old, who would be open to moving to Anfield...
