Newcastle United linked with Bayer Leverkusen defender Jonathan Tah

Neymar s ninth goal of the season moved Paris Saint-Germain three points clear at the Ligue 1 summit following a 1-0 victory over 10-man Marseille.

The Brazil international s strike in first-half stoppage time was enough to settle the Classique as PSG registered 23 shots on goal in a deserved triumph at Parc des Princes.

Marseille had Samuel Gigot sent off for a dangerous challenge on Neymar as the visitors suffered their first away defeat of the season.

Meanwhile, Christophe Galtier s side stretched their unbeaten league run to 20 matches – their longest streak in the French top flight since going 21 games without defeat between May 2018 and January 2019.

Arsenal midfielder Mohamed Elneny has extended his contract with the Premier League leaders through to June 2024.

Elneny is the longest-serving player in Arsenal s squad and has made 155 appearances for the Gunners across all competitions since his 2016 arrival from Basel.

The 30-year-old is currently sidelined after being forced to undergo surgery on a knee injury in January, but he has made five Premier League appearances this season and is regarded as an experienced leader in Mikel Arteta s squad.

Elneny s contract was previously due to expire at the end of the season, but the Egypt international is set to stay in north London until at least the end of next campaign following his renewal.

I m so happy, I love this club and our supporters so much and I…

Pep Guardiola says he has never doubted Phil Foden s quality on the field after the youngster marked his return to the Manchester City side with the only goal against Brentford.

Foden finished superbly from a Kevin De Bruyne cross to score his fifth Premier League goal of the campaign and fire City to a 1-0 victory in Wednesday s clash in west London.

The 21-year-old, along with Jack Grealish, had been left out of City s line-up for their previous two matches after being warned about his off-the-field behaviour by Guardiola. 

That came after the pair were pictured in a nightclub mingling with others without wearing a mask a day before taking part in a recovery training session.

But Foden was back in Guardiola s good books thanks to his match-winning mome…

Putting in a famous display in Turin on Sunday night, AC Milan officially punched their Champions League ticket as they secured a 1-0 victory away at Juventus.

Cashing in on a Juve squad that find themselves in the midst of yet another public nightmare, it was Olivier Giroud who stole all of the headlines as the ex-Arsenal striker bagged his 12th Serie A strike of the season just five minutes before the half-time break.

Clinching back-to-back domestic wins for the first time since the end of February, Stefano Pioli’s side also extended on what has become a remarkable record against their fellow Italian icons.

While Juve might have also suffered their own European heartbreak at the hands of Sevilla earlier in the month, Sunday’s hosts are dealing with a growi…

Luka Modric has admitted he would love to play with Kylian Mbappe at Real Madrid.

The Paris Saint-Germain striker continues to be linked with a switch to the LaLiga giants, and recent unconfirmed reports claimed Mbappe has told his French club he wants to leave.

Mbappe has also previously been linked with a possible switch to Liverpool, who Madrid face in the second leg of their Champions League quarter-final on Wednesday.

It now appears the Spanish capital is a likelier destination than Merseyside for 22-year-old Mbappe, who helped France win the 2018 World Cup final against Modric and Croatia.

Asked about the prospect of signings for next season, Madrid playmaker Modric told a pre-match news conference: There are a lot of rumours and news about playe…

Newcastle United are leading the race for Leicester City attacking midfielder James Maddison, according to . The report has claimed that Newcastle head coach Eddie Howe personally wants the England international playmaker at St. James’ Park.

Leicester will play in the Championship next season after getting relegated from the Premier League. It is very unlikely that the former Premier League champions will be able to keep some of their best players, including Maddison, who is one of the best playmakers around.

Maddison made 28 starts and two substitute appearances in the Premier League for Tottenham this past season. The playmaker scored 10 goals and gave nine assists in those games.

The 26-year-old made 28 starts and seven substitute appearances in the Premier…

Bayern Munich secured their first Bundesliga victory of 2023 after a frantic first half paved the way for a 4-2 victory against Wolfsburg.

Kingsley Coman s brace put the defending champions in control, with Thomas Muller then capping off his record-equalling 427th league appearance for Bayern in style.

Jakub Kaminski struck before the break to give Wolfsburg hope, with Bayern then seeing Joshua Kimmich receive his marching orders for a second bookable offence.

Jamal Musiala and Mattias Svanberg exchanged goals to keep the drama in full flow, though Bayern held on for victory and reclaimed top spot from Union Berlin.

427 Thomas Müller makes his 427th Bundesliga appearance for FC Bayern, equalling Gerd Müller as Bayern s joint-top outfield player for most…

With it all still to play for in Group E on Wednesday evening, Spain will face off against Slovakia in Seville for what is a must-win finale for the former world champions on home soil.

Starting with Slovakia, while The Falcons might have managed to shock many as they landed a 2-1 win against Poland when opening this summer s delayed European Championships on June 14th, Štefan Tarkovič s side failed to build off of that performance last time out. Heavily outplayed against Sweden in Saint Petersburg and hit with a deserved late 1-0 defeat against The Yellows, their returning boss should take some solace from the fact that his side still holds their destiny in their own hands. With Wednesday s hosts enduring a lacklustre sta…

Barcelona are willing to sell Raphinha in the summer transfer window, according to . The report has claimed that the defending La Liga champions have been aware of interest from clubs in Saudi Arabia for a while now and are ready to sell the former Leeds United winger for €75 million.

Raphinha has been on the books of Barcelona since the summer of 2022 when he joined from Leeds United. The winger scored seven goals and gave seven assists in 25 starts and 11 substitute appearances in La Liga for Barca last season. The Brazil international scored four goals and provided six assists in nine starts and nine substitute appearances in the league this campaign.

Barcelona are third in the La Liga table at the moment with 57 points from 26 matches. Xavi’s side are as many as…

With all eyes from across Europe falling on the Nou Camp on Sunday night, Barcelona claimed El Clasico bragging rights thanks to a stunning last-gasp 2-1 victory against Real Madrid.

While Xavi s side might have fallen to a shock early deficit as the returning Ronald Araujo steered into his own net after just nine minutes, Barca certainly came roaring back in some style.

With the versatile Sergi Roberto equalling the scoreline just seconds before heading into the half-time break, it was second-half substitute Kranck Kessie who wrote himself into the El Clasico history books.

Making what was a stunning cameo appearance off the bench, the ex-AC Milan midfielder handed Barca a commanding 12-point buffer at the top of the La Liga table after snatching a remarkable i…
