[ad_1] Terrific strikes from Ruben Neves and Allan Saint-Maximin saw Wolves and Newcastle play out an entertaining 1-1 draw at Molineux on Sunday. Portugal midfielder Neves sent a whizzing drive sailing beyond Nick Pope for the Wanderers’ second league goal of the season, having struggled up front since the opening day of the season. Newcastle had a lot of shocks blocked but a moment of inspiration saw Saint-Maximin clatter a volley in from the edge of the box from Hwang Hee-chan’s poor attempted clearance in the 90th minute. An entertaining start saw Joe Willock, Chris Wood and Pedro Neto go close in the opening 15Read More →

[ad_1] Atletico Madrid manager Diego Simeone has taken a parting shot at Renan Lodi as he closes in on a move to Nottingham Forest. 90min revealed earlier on Sunday that the Premier League new boys have agreed a deal with Atleti to bring Lodi to the City Ground on loan with an option to buy. However, Simeone wasn’t holding back in his assessment of the transfer as he hinted that the defender was running away from the idea of competition in his position. “Renan has the need to play, to have a lot of minutes in this situation that has come up because of theRead More →

[ad_1] Cristiano Ronaldo’s desire to leave Manchester United is said to have been amplified by frustration towards a pay cut written into his contract. Ronaldo, who bagged 18 Premier League goals in 30 games last year, has asked to leave in search of Champions League football following United’s failure to qualify for the competition last year. The 37-year-old’s United contract is understood to include a 25% pay cut as a result of the lack of Champions League football but, according to The Times, Ronaldo argued that United’s poor league performance was not his fault. Ronaldo was frustrated with the wage cut, believing he had livedRead More →

[ad_1] Ruben Neves has confessed that he did not expect to still be a Wolves player at this point in the summer. The 25-year-old ended last season with a confession that he may have to leave Molineux to fulfil his dream of playing Champions League football, with no shortage of European giants interested in signing him. Arsenal, Barcelona and Manchester United have all tracked Neves, and 90min understands that Liverpool scouts have been impressed by the Portugal international as part of their search for late-window reinforcements. Wolves are keen to convince Neves to sign a new contract, but in an interview with The Times, theRead More →

[ad_1] Ajax manager Alfred Schreuder has left Manchester United target Antony out of his matchday squad for the second week in a row. The 22-year-old was omitted from last weekend’s squad amid significant interest from United, who saw a third bid for the Brazilian, this time worth €90m, rejected on Friday. The Red Devils have not given up and still hope to reunite Antony with former Ajax boss Erik ten Hag at Old Trafford, while the player’s representatives have now turned to Ajax CEO Edwin van der Sar as part of their plea to seal a move away from the club. Antony recently went publicRead More →

[ad_1] Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has rejected suggestions that his side are establishing themselves as Premier League title contenders. The Gunners are top of the Premier League after four games and are the only side in the division with a 100% record, with Saturday’s 2-1 victory over Fulham enough to keep them two points ahead of defending champions Manchester City. Arteta’s side have undoubtedly been the top performers of the campaign so far, but the boss was quick to remind fans that the season is just four games old and talk of winning the title at this point is incredibly premature. “No, I think it’sRead More →

[ad_1] Sporting CP are continuing to explore ways to take Cristiano Ronaldo back to the club 19 years after he departed for Manchester United, sources have told 90min. Ronaldo and his representatives told United earlier this summer that he wanted to leave the club to continue playing in the Champions League – something that is not on offer at United this season – and the Portugal legend is keen to move on before the transfer window closes.
