Liverpool midfielder Dominik Szoboszlai has publicly praised teammate Alexis Mac Allister after the club’s 2-0 Premier League victory over Ipswich Town on Friday night. The Merseyside giants made the trip to Portman Road looking to bounce back after a difficult opening to their league season. Liverpool had failed to beat Newcastle United and Nottingham Forest in their first two matches, making the win over newly promoted Ipswich a significant result. Alexander Isak was the standout performer on the night, scoring a quick-fire brace inside the opening 10 minutes to put the game to bed early. Cody Gakpo played a key…

Manchester United are preparing to make a fresh attempt to sign Newcastle United left-back Lewis Hall when the transfer window opens in 2027. Hall was identified as United’s top left-back priority during the most recent summer window, with reports suggesting Newcastle would have accepted £75 million for the player. United never submitted that offer, leaving Hall to remain at Newcastle, where he continues to operate as both a left-back and a midfielder for the club. The pursuit of Hall only intensified after Nathaniel Brown emerged as a leading target, only for Bayern Munich to move quickly and take the player…

Tottenham Hotspur supporters have long searched for a player capable of filling the void left by the legendary Mousa Dembele since his departure in 2019. The Belgian was widely considered the ultimate central midfielder during his time at Spurs, combining raw power with remarkable grace and technical ability in equal measure. Players like Tanguy Ndombele, Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg and Yves Bissouma have all attempted to fill that role in north London, with none managing to do so convincingly. Hope has now been pinned on the £185m pairing of Mateus Fernandes and Sandro Tonali to finally provide Spurs with a genuine midfield…

Everton made a late move to sign Real Betis forward Ezzalzouli Abde during the summer transfer window, according to Catalan outlet Mundo Deportivo. The Toffees submitted a proposal worth €43m (£37m), including bonuses, to secure the services of the 24-year-old Moroccan winger. The bid was structured with a guaranteed fee of €35m, with the remaining €8m made up of performance-related add-ons. Real Betis firmly rejected the approach, insisting that Abde would only leave for the full amount of his €60m (£51m) release clause. The Spanish club’s position was strengthened by the fact that Abde’s existing contract runs until 2029, leaving…

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has delivered a detailed team news update with Sunday’s Premier League home fixture against Chelsea rapidly approaching. The Gunners enter gameweek three in strong form, having won both of their opening Premier League matches to begin the new season with maximum points.

Arteta will face fellow compatriot Xabi Alonso on the touchline when Chelsea visit the Emirates Stadium, adding an extra layer of intrigue to what is already a blockbuster…

Tottenham Hotspur and Brighton have moved beyond mere interest in Boca Juniors forward Leonel Flores, submitting formal proposals to the 19-year-old South American. Football FanCast sources understand both clubs have outlined clear first-team pathways to Flores, with Spurs believing they can offer him regular minutes as early as next season. Both clubs are also reported to be willing to meet Flores’ release clause in January, believed to sit at around €13million, equivalent to approximately £11.1million. With the club-to-club financial arrangements largely agreed, any deal is expected to come down entirely to the player’s own preference on his next destination. Flores…

Liverpool are reportedly holding strong interest in AS Monaco midfielder Lamine Camara, with a potential January move now on the cards. The Reds won the Premier League title under Arne Slot during the 2024/25 campaign but struggled significantly last term, prompting the club to part ways with the Dutch manager this summer. Andoni Iraola has since been appointed as Liverpool’s new head coach, bringing his tactical credentials from a successful spell at AFC Bournemouth. The Spanish boss guided Bournemouth to a sixth-place Premier League finish last season, earning the Cherries a place in the Europa League in the process. Liverpool…

All three Premier League giants are reportedly tracking AC Milan centre back Strahinja Pavlovic ahead of a potential £56 million transfer in 2027. Journalist Ekrem Konur has reported that Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester United are all considering moves for the Serbian international defender. The trio are each competing across four competitions this season, placing enormous pressure on their respective squads, particularly in central defence. Arsenal are facing a significant challenge after William Saliba suffered an indefinite injury, with Jurrien Timber also currently sidelined and unavailable for selection. Liverpool have their own concerns at the back, with a well-documented lack of…

Manchester United midfielder Kobbie Mainoo has quickly reminded everyone of his value following his spell in the wilderness under the previous manager at Old Trafford. The 21-year-old was absent from the starting lineup on the opening weekend against Hull City, yet his influence was immediately felt against Ipswich Town in central midfield. Sunday’s performance belonged to Bruno Fernandes in many respects, but United were visibly a stronger outfit with Mainoo pulling the strings alongside him. Against Ipswich, Mainoo recorded 23 carries and successfully completed four of his five attempted dribbles, demonstrating exactly the kind of composure and quality that makes…
