Sports / Mike Ashley Has Reportedly Sold Newcastle United To A Dubai-Based Billionaire by Olabode0090(m): 12:08pm On May 27, 2019 |
Mike Ashley could be ready to leave Newcastle United behind him after reports have emerged that he has sold the club to a Dubai-based billionaire. According to the Daily Telegraph, the interested party in the club is Sheikh Khaled bin Zayed Al Nehayan, who is none other than the cousin of Manchester City owner Sheikh Mansour. While the Sun reports that Ashley has moved ahead with the sale, the Telegraph says its 'several high-placed sources' are unable to confirm whether Al Nehayan's £350m offer has been accepted. The newspaper added that all of its questions were met with a "no comment," but one of its sources said that the quoted fee was 'an accurate reflection of the asking price.' This is not the first time that Al Nehayan has been interested in taking over a football club. In fact, the 61-year-old attempted a £2bn takeover of Liverpool in 2018. Rafa Benítez's future remains uncertain at Newcastle and he admitted after their 3-2 defeat to Liverpool at St James' Park that he wanted to stay at the Magpies. Credit: PA "No, I'm feeling that it is a good day in terms of what we did on the pitch, and I am very emotional in what you could see around. That's it," he said. "I'm not negative, or too positive, in terms of the conversations on the future. I think that the fans, they want me to stay. "We have to be sure we have the tools to compete at the level that we want to compete. "We are in a good mood, hopefully it [talks over my future] will be positive." Will Ashley sell the club?

Sports / Update: The Five Arsenal Players Who Need To Prove Themselves Against Chelsea by Olabode0090(m): 10:04pm On May 26, 2019 |
With the Europa League final coming up football.london looks at the players who need to impress for Arsenal against Chelsea Arsenal head coach Unai Emery jetted to Baku on Saturday with a squad of 24 as the Gunners prepare for the Europa League final against Chelsea - but who are the players who need to treat the match as audition to prove themselves for next season? The Gunners trained on Sunday in the capital of Azerbaijan and are set for another session on Monday with an open event at the Olympic Stadium on Tuesday ahead of the showpiece final on Wednesday - but with a large squad to choose from just who are the players who need to convince Emery they are the right men for him next season? Emery's squad included five talented teens Emery as he bids to steer the north Londoners to silverware and a coveted spot in next season's Champions League - but with many first team regulars unsure of their future next term, the contest against the Blues in Baku will be a platform for them to show their worth ahead of what is expected to be a busy transfer window. READ MORE If we disregard the three first teamers who have or will have played their final game for Arsenal this week including Petr Cech, Danny Welbeck, Aaron Ramsey with doubts rising over the future of Henrikh Mkhitaryan in north London, football.london looks at the players who will use Baku as a showcase for their talents in a bid to convince Emery they are worth keeping at the Emirates. Shkodran Mustafi A player who is a mistake waiting to occur. His calamitous errors have cost the Gunners countless times since he signed for the club three years ago from Valencia for a staggering £35m. If the 27-year-old former Everton and Sampdoria centre-half is jettisoned by Emery this summer the fee that director of football Raul Sanllehi hopes to recoup will still be nowhere near the cash they shelled out. Shkodran Mustafi attends a training session at the Mestalla stadium (Image: JOSE JORDAN / AFP) Culpable for all three goals against Crystal Palace during the crucial 3-2 defeat by the Eagles at the Emirates that sparked the club's poor end of season run which saw them fail to finish in the top four by a single point, he was also left floundering in no man's land in the box after James Maddison whipped in a cross for Youri Tielemans to nod home during Arsenal's 3-0 loss at Leicester the week after.

Sports / Can You Believe Ex-chelsea Star Delivers Verdict On Maurizio Sarri's Future by Olabode0090(m): 8:44pm On May 26, 2019 |
The Italian has divided opinion since replacing Antonio Conte as Chelsea head coach. [url][/url]https://www.livesporty.ml/2019/05/can-you-believe-ex-chelsea-star.html?m=1 Wayne Bridge expressed his surprise that Maurizio Sarri is still at Stamford Bridge after a 'poor' first season with the club. The Italian has divided opinion since replacing Antonio Conte as Chelsea head coach, with many fans failing to fall for his famous Sarri-ball tactic. Reports this week have suggested that Sarri is close to agreeing a move to be head coach of Juventus, a move which could be seen as ideal for all parties involved given the current circumstances at the club. With Chelsea's stance in the transfer market looking uncertain, Bridge has said that it could be the start of a difficult era for the Blues as they they to close the gap on the likes of Man City and Liverpool. Speaking to Sky Sports, he said: "I'm surprised he [Sarri] is still there. And with the transfer ban and everything, what are they going to do? "They've been really inconsistent. You can see the fans aren't really happy. I don't think the players are happy, and then probably the manager isn't either. "With Chelsea at the moment, they could end up going through a pretty bad spell. Juventus next manager odds Pep Guardiola - 6/5 Maurizio Sarri - 3/1 Jose Mourinho - 5/1 Simone Inzaghi - 6/1 Mauricio Pochettino - 8/1 Antonio Conte - 8/1 Diego Simeone - 18/1 Sinisa Mihajlovic - 20/1 Carlo Ancelotti - 20/1 Joachim Low - 25/1 Arsene Wenger - 25/1 Laurent Blanc - 33/1 Marcelo Bielsa - 33/1 Eusebio Di Francesco - 33/1 Jupp Heynckes - 33/1 Luciano Spalletti - 33/1 "But will they compete (next season) with Liverpool and Manchester City? I don't think so, unless there is no transfer ban and the manager gets to buy the players he wants, or a new manager comes in and changes it up a bit because it has been a poor season." ������ Remember to visit our site for more info :https://www.livesporty.ml/2019/05/can-you-believe-ex-chelsea-star.html?m=1

Sports / N'golo Kante Could Play Against Arsenal by Olabode0090(m): 7:48pm On May 26, 2019 |
[url][/url]https://www.livesporty.ml/2019/05/ngolo-kante-could-play-europa-league.html?m=1 Chelsea midfielder N'Golo Kante has reportedly suffered a knee injury ahead of Wednesday's Europa League final with Arsenal. Kante missed the closing games of the Premier League campaign with a calf problem, but the France international had returned to training ahead of the showdown with the Gunners in Baku. However, according to The Mirror, Kante is now likely to miss the showpiece having sustained an issue with his knee on Saturday. The report suggests that Kante still needs to be assessed in the coming days, but it appears that Maurizio Sarri will be left with just three fit central midfielders. Ruben Loftus-Cheek has already been ruled out after Achilles surgery, meaning that Jorginho, Mateo Kovacic and Ross Barkley are expected to start against Chelsea's London rivals.

Sports / Tuchel Extends PSG Stay To End Departure Speculation After Disappointing Season by Olabode0090(m): 6:22pm On May 25, 2019 |
PARIS SAINT-GERMAIN COACH Thomas Tuchel has extended his deal with the French Ligue 1 champions through to June 2021, the club announced on Saturday. The 45-year-old German took over in June 2018 and despite winning Ligue 1 has come under scrutiny after the Parisian club’s defeat to Manchester United in the Champions League last 16. The news cuts short speculation that PSG’s Qatari owners would fire Tuchel and hire outgoing Juventus coach Massimiliano Allegri. “I’m delighted to extend my contract and commitment to Paris Saint-Germain,” Tuchel said. “I’d like to thank the chairman and the whole club for their trust in me and my staff. This only reinforces my ambition to bring this team to the very top through hard work,” he told the club website I’m also very touched by the backing of our supporters, and I’m sure that the best is yet to come for our club.” Nasser al-Khelaifi, Paris Saint-Germain chairman and CEO, praised Tuchel’s energy and modus operandi. “For a year now, Thomas has been bringing fantastic energy to the daily life of the club, not only for the players, but for the whole of Paris Saint-Germain,” the Qatari said. “We are delighted to be able to rely on his qualities on a long-term basis.” PSG suffered a humiliating 3-1 home defeat to Manchester United to exit the Champions League in March. Source: Imago/PA Images Tuchel was appointed last year on a two-year deal to succeed Unai Emery. He had been widely praised for his work at the Parc des Princes, but another elimination from the Champions League in the first knockout round had raised questions. PSG had been desperate to make progress in Europe after being knocked out of the Champions League last 16 in back-to-back seasons under Emery. They looked on course to reach the quarter-finals after a 2-0 win away to United in the first leg, but a 3-1 home loss at the Parc des Princes knocked them out on away goals. The nature of their defeat, especially coming two years after their capitulation against Barcelona at the same stage, has seen PSG widely labelled as bottlers, incapable of dealing with the tension on the big stage. https://www.livesporty.ml/2019/05/breaking-chelsea-finally-reveal-player.html?m=1

Sports / Leroy Sane To Bayern Is Best For All by Olabode0090(m): 6:14pm On May 25, 2019 |
Leroy Sane of Manchester City during the Premier League match between Burnley FC and Manchester City at Turf Moor on April 28, 2019 in Burnley, United Kingdom. (Photo by Robbie Jay Barratt - AMA/Getty Images) After a season in and out of the starting lineup, Leroy Sane may be leaving Manchester City. The 23-year-old German winger is reportedly a summer target of Bayern Munich. The German giants have made their intentions to reclaim their place amongst Europes richest clear, and a move for Sane could be the rare best-for-all-parties scenario. Sane To Bayern Is Best For All Why Leave Manchester? It’s a tough question to ask, Why is a young superstar leaving a team that just won their country’s first ever domestic treble? The answer is always going to come down to multiple factors and facets. With regards to Leroy Sane, it starts with a basic fact, he does not fit into Pep Guardiola’s formation. Right or wrong, Pep has always built his teams to play with inverted wingers. Right footers on the left and left footers on the right are his tactic, going all the way back to Thierry Henry and Lionel Messi at Barcelona. Leroy Sane is left-footed winger, who plays at his best on the left-hand side. He played nearly 1,900 in the Premier League this season and all of them were on the left side of the front three. But in this his third season at the Etihad, Sane came off the bench 10 times, after coming off the bench 11 times the last two seasons. He was on the bench in big games like both legs against Tottenham and the FA Cup Final. It had been made clear, both by Guardiola and by production, that Raheem Sterling and Bernardo Silva have to be the starting wingers. It’s easy to see why an elite footballer would look elsewhere as he has lost his place. Manchester City would never admit this, but they would probably be better off if Sane were to sign with Bayern Munich. City’s Benefit Manchester City is facing a crucial summer for the development of their project. For years they have skated by UEFA’s Financial Fair Play rules without serious sanctions. But the newest case UEFA has on the club and their ownership is the most damning and could lead to the club being thrown out of next season’s Champions League. The club has been aware of this for some time and has been doing their best to balance the books. Over the last three transfer windows, they have only made one signing, Riyad Mahrez. Everton, a club with less than half the revenue of Manchester City, has spent more than twice City has in that time. Manchester City wants to add depth to the back end of their squad in order to push for a Champions League title; barring expulsion. They have been heavily linked to Rodrigo Hernandez of Atletico Madrid, along with Ben Chilwell at Leicester City. Both players would be important back-end reinforcements for a Champions League run. It is much easier to make those purchases if there is already money coming via a sale. And while Leroy Sane is a great talent, he plays at a position of strength for Manchester City. Gabriel Jesus, Raheem Sterling and Riyad Mahrez have all played on the left-hand side of the front three this season For more info visit: https://www.livesporty.ml/2019/05/leroy-sane-to-bayern-is-best-for-all.html?m=1

Sports / Guardiola Finally ‘agrees’ €24m Deal To Join Juventus From Man City Next Season by Olabode0090(m): 7:51am On May 25, 2019 |
Manchester City manager, Pep Guardiola, has finally agreed on a €24m-a-year with Juventus to become their new manager. Guardiola has been strongly linked with a move to join the Serie A champions this summer. The Spaniard was dismissive last Friday when asked about the Turin club following news that Massimiliano Allegri is to leave the Old Lady this summer. “How many times do I have to say? I’m not going to go to Juventus, I’m not going to move to Italy. “I’m satisfied here, I’m not going anywhere. Next season I will be manager of Man City. I said many times,” Guardiola told reporters ahead of their FA Cup final against Watford. However, on Thursday, Calciomercato is now reporting that the City boss has agreed on a ‘four years contract with a fee of 24 million euros per season’ to become Juventus’ new manager next season. The Italian newspaper claimed that the 48-year-old former Barcelona coach will sign a deal with the Turin club on June 4 and he will be officially unveiled on June 14. Guardiola won the English League Cup, FA Cup and Premier League with Man City this season. Click to read more:https://www.livesporty.ml/2019/05/guardiola-finally-agrees-24m-deal-to.html?m=1

Sports / Messi Identifies €220m Rated Left-footed Star As His Replacement At Barcelona by Olabode0090(m): 1:38am On May 25, 2019 |
Barcelona captain, Lionel Messi has identified Liverpool’s left-footed winger, Mohamed Salah, as his replacement at Nou Camp. According to Sportskeeda, Messi, who will be 32 next month, has told the club’s board to sign the Egyptian international this summer’s transfer window. The report claimed that the Argentine international wants Salah to become his successor at the Catalan club once he eventually retires from the Blaugrana. The report also claimed that Barcelona will have to break the bank to sign Salah as Liverpool will demand in excess of €220million from the La Liga champions for their star player. Salah has been phenomenal for Jurgen Klopp’s side since he joined the club from AS Roma in 2016. The forward lead the Reds to this season’s UEFA Champions League final where they will tackle Tottenham Hotspur on June 1 in Madrid. The 26-year-old also scored 22 English Premier League goals this season and won the Golden Boot for the league highest goal scorer alongside fellow teammate, Sadio Mane and Arsenal striker, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.

Sports / The NINE Players That Could Have Played Their LAST Game For Real Madrid Today by Olabode0090(m): 1:53pm On May 23, 2019 |
Zidane will rebuild his Madrid side and Bale and Isco could make way for new stars (Pic: GETTY) REAL MADRID could be waving goodbye to nine players after their La Liga campaign came to a close. Real Madrid ended a poor season with a 2-0 defeat to Real Betis at the Santiago Bernabeu. Zinedine Zidane is Madrid’s third manager of the season following unsuccessful stints for Julen Lopetegui and Santiago Solari. The Frenchman returned to the club less than a year after departing and knows he is in for a busy summer as he sets about overhauling an ageing squad. The Premier League clubs are said to have tabled £50million bids for Bale, although Madrid would want to recoup most of the £80m they paid Spurs in 2013. Meanwhile, the same publication also suggest Toni Kroos could be sold to United, Manchester City or Paris Saint-Germain in order to raise funds to sign Neymar at the end of the season. The Brazilian superstar is seen as a long-term replacement for Cristiano Ronaldo, who is also expected to leave the Bernabeu after the current campaign. The high-profile trio are not the only players who have been linked with exits from Real Madrid in recent weeks, with Karim Benzema, Mateo Kovacic and Isco among the stars attracting attention from clubs around Europe.

Sports / Liverpool News: Real Madrid Chief Florentino Perez Makes Sadio Mane Transfer Dec by Olabode0090(m): 8:58pm On May 21, 2019 |
[img][/img] LIVERPOOL star Sadio Mane will not be joining Real Madrid with Florentino Perez unwilling to fork out for the Senegal international, according to reports. Mane was strongly linked with a move to Real Madrid when Zinedine Zidane returned to the Bernabeu back in March. Speculation of a transfer has, however, cooled down in recent times with the La Liga giants appearing to look elsewhere. Real Madrid are understood to covet the arrival of Eden Hazard, who appears primed to join from Chelsea once the Blues’ Europa League final with Arsenal is done. And they also want Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba, who has filtered with a move to Spain. Zidane, however, reportedly still wants Mane. But Spanish pundit Eduardo Inda has claimed that Peez has blocked a move - because he feels the Senegal international would be too pricy. [url][/url] "Zidane has differences with Thibaut Courtois, having wanted to continue with Keylor,” he said. “Pogba is closer than we think. “And Mane, Liverpool has asked 200 million euros (£175m) and Florentino has said no.” Click For more TRANSFER :https://www.livesporty.ml/2019/05/liverpool-news-real-madrid-chief.html?m=1

Sports / Arsenal Considering £9m Move For 19 Old Player by Olabode0090(m): 12:47pm On May 19, 2019 |
Arsenal are keen on a move for Lorient forward Alexis Claude-Maurice, continuing a long-standing policy of pinching young French talent. The youngster, who has also been linked with newly-promoted Norwich City, has impressed in Ligue 2 this season, scoring 14 goals in 35 appearances. Claude-Maurice has also appeared twice for France Under-20 team and is regarded as one of the country's brightest prospects. The Mirror report that the Gunners have scouted the youngster regularly and are set to move in front of Norwich in the queue for his signature. The Canaries had reportedly been readying a £9m bid after identifying the 20-year-old as a key target ahead of their return to the top flight. Several French clubs are also interested in the youngster, including Monaco. Lille, who are lining up potential replacements for Premier League-linked Nicolas Pepe, are also reportedly tracking the young forward. Arsenal enjoyed a successful shopping trip to Lorient last summer, signing the impressive Matteo Guendouzi for £7m, and will hope that Claude-Maruice can provide similar value for money. Claude-Maurice, who can play out wide or through the middle, would add much needed depth to Arsenal's forward line. Danny Welbeck is set to depart on a free this summer following an injury-ravaged season, meaning backup is needed for strikers Alexandre Lacazette and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. The Gunners are also short in the wide areas, with Denis Suarez failing to impress during his 6-month loan spell. Claude-Maurice's versatility and ability to play across the forward line would definitely give Emery another option on the flanks. Arsenal are also in the market for a central defender, following injury to Rob Holding and the poor form of Shkodran Mustafi. The Premier League side have been linked with a number of defensive targets, including Roma's Kostas Manolas. Visit our blog for more Sport News: www.livesporty.ml

Sports / Hector Bellerin Has Urged More Men To “speak Out” And “fight” Against Abortion L by Olabode0090(m): 12:30pm On May 19, 2019 |
Hector Bellerin has urged more men to “speak out” and “fight” against abortion laws in the United States. The Arsenal star admits he wanted to see more people in football discuss the controversial legislation publicly. Missouri’s Republican-led House passed legislation to outlaw almost all abortions after eight weeks of pregnancy. And Bellerin is adamant the issue is not just for women but every human being. “I wanted to see if anyone from our industry would speak out about the abortion bill, but I guess people are too scared,” Bellerin wrote on social media. “This isn’t just an issue for women, it’s one for every human being. “We fight for equality and this is something men should fight for and not hide away from.” Bellerin has spoken out about abortion laws (PA) Bellerin received widespread praise in response, with many proclaiming him to be their “captain” and a perfect example for others to follow. The 24-year-old is currently undergoing rehabilitation after rupturing his anterior cruciate ligament. Follow us on Instagram @brolivesporty, Also visit our blog@www.livesporty.ml

Sports / BASEBALL: No. 23 Vols Miss Chance To Sweep No. 15 Ole Miss by Olabode0090(m): 10:52pm On May 18, 2019 |
The 23rd-ranked Tennessee baseball team rallied late Saturday afternoon to give itself a chance to sweep 15th-ranked Ole Miss, but the Vols fell just short in a 5-4 loss in their regular-season finale at Lindsey Nelson Stadium. A sluggish start put the Vols in a 5-0 hole heading into the bottom of the fourth inning, but they steadied the ship to stay in the game before rallying for three runs to narrow the score to 5-4 in the bottom of the seventh. Tennessee stranded the tying run in scoring position in the seventh, though, and it got no closer. A big weekend series win over the Rebels should have been enough for the Vols to secure an NCAA Tournament berth, but they can help their cause even more in next week’s SEC Tournament. Here’s a recap of Saturday’s loss, courtesy of the Tennessee sports information department. NO. 23 VOLS RALLY BUT FALL SHORT IN LOSS TO NO. 15 OLE MISS The No. 23 Tennessee baseball team rallied late but came up a run short in Saturday afternoon's series finale versus No. 15 Ole Miss, losing 5-4 at Lindsey Nelson Stadium to cap the regular season. The Volunteers entered the bottom of the fourth inning trailing 5-0 but scored four runs to make things interesting down the stretch. Junior first baseman Pete Derkay and sophomore left fielder Alerick Soularie both had a pair of hits to lead Tennessee’s attack, but Ole Miss’ Tyler Keenan had the biggest hit of the game with a three-run home run in the top of the third. Jacob Adams drove in what turned out to be the game-winning run for Ole Miss with a sacrifice fly in the fourth. Freshman right hander Gunnar Hoglund earned his second win of the year after tossing six solid innings for the Rebels, allowing three runs on five hits. Tennessee junior starter starter Zach Linginfelter took the loss after giving up five runs on four hits in 3.1 innings of work. The Rebels manufactured a run in the top of the second to open the scoring. Cole Zabowski led off the inning with a walk, advanced to second on a single and moved to third on a deep fly out before scoring on a double steal to give UM a 1-0 lead. Ole Miss added to its lead with the Keenan homer in the top of the third to put the Rebels ahead 4-0. It was the team-leading 13th home run of the year from the sophomore third baseman. Consecutive singles with one out chased Linginfelter from the game in the top of the fourth. The Rebels went on to score another run later in the inning on Adams' sac fly to make it 5-0 before reliever Will Heflin got the Vols out of the inning. The Vols got on the board with a run in the bottom of the fourth to cut the deficit down to four when sophomore designated hitter Evan Russell drove in Soularie with a two-out single to make it 5-1. A three-run seventh inning got the Vols right back in the game. Tennessee loaded the bases with nobody out for Derkay, who delivered with a two-run double down the first-base line to cut the deficit to two. Junior catcher Landon Gray drove in the third run of the inning with a sacrifice fly to make it a 5-4 game heading into the eighth, but the Vols got no closer. The bullpen duo of Tyler Myers and Ryan Olenek held off the Vols over the final two innings to preserve the win. Olenek retired the side in order in the bottom of the ninth after playing the first eight innings in center field. VOLS FINISH THIRD IN SEC EAST: With Missouri's loss to Florida on Saturday, the Vols finished third in the SEC East this season, which marked their highest finish in the division since coming in second in the College World Series season of 2005.

Roma's chances of qualifying for the Champions League all but disappeared after drawing at Sassuolo 0-0 in Serie A on Saturday. The result left Roma two points behind Atalanta, which occupies fourth spot and the final qualifying spot for Europe's top club competition. A win for Atalanta at Italian champion Juventus on Sunday would end Roma's hopes of making the Champions League as there is only one round of Serie A left after this weekend. Edin Dzeko and Justin Kluivert hit the woodwork for Roma, which also had a goal disallowed for offside.

Sports / Ross Barkley Scores Brace As Chelsea Down New England Revolution In Charity Game by Olabode0090(m): 6:43am On May 18, 2019 |
England international Ross Barkley scored twice as Chelsea cruised to a 3-0 victory over the New England Revolution in a charity friendly at Foxborough on Wednesday. Ross Barkley calmly placed a low finish into the net after Pedro's cross in the third minute to give Chelsea the lead. France striker Olivier Giroud then made it 2-0 for the Blues, nodding home David Zappacosta's cross in the 29th minute. The Premier League side completed the scoring in the 62nd minute when Gonzalo Higuain's shot was diverted into the goal by Barkley. The only sour note on a straightforward assignment for Chelsea came in the second half, when Ruben Loftus-Cheek limped out of the action with what appeared to be an ankle injury. Wednesday's game, which took place just three days after Chelsea concluded their gruelling Premier League campaign, was billed as the "Final Whistle On Hate" with funds raised going to organisations who combat hate crimes. Robert Kraft, the billionaire owner of the New England Revolution and New England Patriots NFL team, had joined forces with Chelsea's Russian tycoon owner Roman Abramovich to arrange the match. A statement on Chelsea's website said the game had raised USD 4 million for charities. For more Info visit : https://www.livesporty.ml/2019/05/ross-barkley-scores-brace-as-chelsea.html

Sports / Real Madrid Make "Contact" With Liverpool's Mohamed Salah Over Summer Transfer: by Olabode0090(m): 6:36am On May 18, 2019 |
Many European media outlets are claiming that Real Madrid have made contact with Liverpool superstar Mohamed Salah over a shock summer transfer. With the league season over for most of Europe's big-hitters, the focus now shifts to the massive summer transfer window. While many deals have already been completed by some of the big European clubs, there are still some huge transfer rumours swirling around in regards to quite a few star names. Real Madrid's interest in Chelsea's Eden Hazard has been well documented with many reports claiming the transfer is nearing completion. However, a new name has appeared on Real Madrid's radar. If some of the reports in the European media are to be believed, the Spanish giants have already made contact with Liverpool superstar Mohamed Salah over a summer transfer. Media outlets like the Daily Mail, The Sun, Eurosport, Marca and others have quoted Canal+ as saying that Real Madrid have made a first approach to sign the Egyptian star. Journalist Philippe Carayon appeared on a French TV's Canal+ to say that Zinedine Zidane fancies the Egyptian ace as a "galactico" summer transfer. Mohamed Salah has enjoyed yet another successful season for Liverpool, scoring a total of 26 goals this season in all competitions. Liverpool still have a UEFA Champions League final to play -- against Tottenham Hotspur while they finished second in the Premier League behind eventual champions Manchester City. However, if the rumours of Real Madrid's interest in signing Mohamed Salah are true, the Spanish club still have a massive task ahead of them as Liverpool are unlikely to let go of their prized asset without a fight. For Premier League teams like Liverpoool, the transfer deadline will again come before most of the rest of Europe, on August 8, meaning clubs cannot afford to waste time. The window for domestic deals opened on May 16 (Thursday). International transfers by Premier League clubs can be completed .

Sports / Five Things Barcelona Must Do To Win The Champions League Next Season by Olabode0090(m): 11:03pm On May 17, 2019 |
After a horrible experience face by the Catalan Giant Barcelona against Liverpool in the last champions league 4:0 defeat, Which also happened in the previous outing against Roma, Barcelona should really put this 5 things together in other to be back on track for the next Champions league. 1. Coutinho Right postilion P. Coutinho should be return back to is normal position as an attacking midfielder, he is not Neymar.j. So Barcelona should not put him as a winger , in fact the main reason Barcelona bought him was to replace Iniesta not Neymar. 2.De Jong Signing Barcelona should not waste there time and signed him because he is really fit into Barcelona style of play , he had enjoyed a great season after winning the Netherland Cup, defeating the Big dogs in the champions league Barcelona should make his transfer there major duty before club's like PSG,Bayanmunich,Man city and Liverpool. 3.Get a New Left Back Don't get me wrong jordi Alba is still a great Left back with his speed, passes ,dribbling Barcelona still need him but he can't do more his performance is depreciating due to age factor, Barcelona should look for a younger long replacement for him to rest in some Game.

Sports / Should Iheanacho Stay Or Leaves Leicester City by Olabode0090(m): 9:21pm On May 17, 2019 |
Super Eagles forward Kelechi Iheanacho may be sent out on loan ahead of the 2019/20 season in a bid to restore his lost confidence according to his manager Brendan Rodgers reports Iheanacho had a disappointing season and has only scored twice this season in 36 appearances, although the vast majority of those were as a substitute, and his last goal came in September in the win over Huddersfield Town. And his Leicester City manager Brendan Rodgers admits a loan switch could be an option for the 22-year-old to help get him more game time and get his confidence back.
