[ad_1] Pedri is expected to miss Sunday’s meeting with Real Madrid after the Barcelona midfielder aggravated his injury during training. The 20-year-old has missed Barcelona’s last six games in all competitions because of a thigh problem but he had been expected to recover in time for the crucial La Liga meeting at Camp Nou. Unfortunately, numerous outlets in Spain have now reported that Pedri complained of discomfort after Friday’s training session and the midfielder has now been ruled out of the game and will also miss the chance to link up with the national team next week. It’s a significant blow for Xavi but oneRead More →

[ad_1] Tottenham’s bid to cling onto onto fourth spot in the Premier League after their exit from the Champions League at the hands of AC Milan continues with a trip to Southampton on Saturday. Any match against the team at the bottom of the table for a team in Spurs’ position has to end with three points, especially with Liverpool and Newcastle now giving serious chase for fourth place. Antonio Conte may seemingly be at war with some of the members of his squad but he must get the best out of them for the final 11 games of the season. They could well beRead More →

[ad_1] Manchester City have been handed a tough draw against Bayern Munich in the quarter-finals of the Champions League. It’s also a tie which will reunite a few familiar faces. Pep Guardiola previously enjoyed Bundesliga title success in Bavaria, while Leroy Sane now plays for the German giants. Should City come out on top, they’ll face either Real Madrid or Chelsea in the semi finals. The eligibility of Joao Cancelo has also come into question. In the January transfer window, one move that surprised everyone was the right back’s loan from City to Bayern, and as fate would have it the two teams are nowRead More →

[ad_1] Lionel Messi was not present during Paris Saint-Germain’s training session on Thursday amid rumours in Spain that ultras are planning to protest against him being at the club. The Argentine played 90 minutes in last weekend’s 2-1 win over Brest, setting up Kylian Mbappe’s stoppage-time winner. But he was nowhere to be seen on Thursday ahead of the weekend game against Rennes, and L’Equipe note that no official reason has been given for Messi’s absence. Messi missed the session alongside Presnel Kimpembe, Marquinhos, Achraf Hakimi and Nordi Mukiele, while centre-back Sergio Ramos was forced inside early after picking up an injury. Many were quickRead More →

[ad_1] Chelsea manager Graham Potter was in top form during a club event on Thursday night, where he quipped that the players will go all out to “try and win the f***ing Champions League!” The former Brighton boss has been under relentless pressure after an indifferent run of results since his September appointment, although the club look to have turned a corner in recent weeks. Wins over Leeds United and Leicester City in the Premier League sandwiched a morale-boosting 2-1 aggregate win over Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League, which sealed the Blues’ place in the quarter-finals of the competition. Potter will lead his sideRead More →

[ad_1] Erik ten Hag’s hunt for silverware at Manchester United shows no sign of slowing down with his side into the final eight of the Europa League thanks to their dominance over Real B*tis. The Carabao Cup is already in the bag and the Red Devils are still in the FA Cup with a quarter-final against Fulham to come at Old Trafford, but attention now turns to who they could be facing in the Europa League quarter-finals. With a tough run of domestic fixtures coming up, United could do with a kind draw to avoid overloading a squad that is still thin in areas. UnitedRead More →

[ad_1] There is still a huge amount of scope as to how Manchester United’s season could be viewed come the end of the season. A first trophy since 2017 is already in the bag, a superb achievement for Erik ten Hag, and they are still in the Europa League and the FA Cup. They should also have enough in the tank to secure a place in the Champions League for next season. Going out of both of those cups and then missing out on the top four would suddenly put an extremely different complexion on the season, and that is why the next set ofRead More →

[ad_1] Napoli striker Victor Osimhen has revealed that a Chelsea legend is his idol, with the Blues among the clubs keen on the Nigerian this coming summer. Osimhen has racked up 23 goals in 28 appearances in all competitions this season, including three of the five Napoli scored over two legs against Eintracht Frankfurt in the Champions League. Already nailed on favourites to win a first Serie A title since 1990 and the days of Diego Maradona thanks to their 18-point lead, Napoli are increasingly fancied in the Champions League as well. Osimhen will be vital to that should they go all the way inRead More →

[ad_1] Manchester United are into the quarter-finals of the Europa League after a 1-0 win over Real B*tis on Thursday night added to the 4-1 aggregate lead from last week at Old Trafford. Marcus Rashford’s 27th goal of the season in the second half made the difference on the night. Knowing the uphill task that lay ahead of them after the first leg, B*tis started like a team who genuinely believed they could pull off an aggregate comeback. At the very least, that made it a much more entertaining game over the course of the first hour than most would have been expecting even ifRead More →
