Spain have beaten England 2-1 in the final of Euro 2024 to win their fourth European Championship in what could be Gareth Southgate s last game in charge of the Three Lions.
Three years ago the nation stood on the edge of history, only for an agonising, all too familiar, shoot-out defeat meaning they had to walk past the trophy as Italy celebrated long into the Wembley night.
England overcame an unconvincing start in Germany to make another continental showpiece, but the country’s first ever final on foreign soil ended in more heartbreak as silky Spain triumphed 2-1 at the Olympiastadion.
Substitute Cole Palmer’s superb equaliser had breathed new life into Southgate’s side after Nico Williams shook what had looked sturdy foundations 69 seconds into the sec…
Former Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea has shot himself in the foot, as Genoa have swerved his transfer due to the unrealistic salary expectations of the player which became apparent during talks.
De Gea has now been without a club for an entire year, having left United as a free agent following the signing of Andre Onana last summer. The Spaniard was the starting goalkeeper the season prior, but the signing of the former Inter Milan man seemed to suggest that would no longer be the case.
Since leaving United with 545 appearances under his belt De Gea has had opportunities to get back playing. The latest came in the form of Serie A side Genoa, who were in Serie B two seasons ago.
It was said De Gea was interested in the move, as has been reported with …
Leny Yoro reportedly came to a verbal agreement with Manchester United over a future move to Real Madrid when he signed for the Red Devils this summer.

Liverpool and Paris Saint-Germain had by that point already pulled out of negotiations for the centre-back having got wind of the mutual interest between Yoro and Madrid, only for United to swoop in what was seen as quite the transfer coup – .
But suggested the teenager had little choice in the matter.
It was claimed that Madrid used ‘the same formula’ they used successfully to sign Jude Bellingham and Aurelien Tchouameni, a ‘negotiati…
David Ornstein has reported that Arsenal are actively working on the loan signing of Raheem Sterling, while fellow insider Ben Jacobs states the attacker would accept the switch with no hesitation .
Sterling has been told by Chelsea that there is no future for him at the club. Manager Enzo Maresca has, somewhat brutally, told the media that he does not want the attacker in his squad.
That leaves the 379-game Premier League star, who has 123 goals and 62 assists within that, looking for a new club. After representing Chelsea, Manchester City and Liverpool, there are only a few big clubs left in England for him.
And two of them, Manchester United and Arsenal, have been linked since Maresca showed Sterling the door. It was reported that while Gunners boss Mikel Art…
Just when you get into the swing of things, a new problem occurs. Such is the story of the England manager job and it is no different for newly appointed interim boss Lee Carsley.
Prior to s September fixtures and Finland, Carsley was bold in his midfield choices with former Man Utd man Angel Gomes and Nottingham Forest s Morgan Gibbs-White featuring, two players who Carsley had worked with while in charge of the England U20 s and U21 s.
His preference of Gomes seemed to have won a lot of plaudits with the Lille midfielder impressing in both games, completing 90 minutes on Tuesday night at Wembley.
Despite the level of opposition being considerably different to the teams England faced in the Euros, Gomes looked far more comfortable than the likes of Conor Gall…

A bill is on its way to the House after being approved by the Senate this morning, albeit with a massive change to how sports betting will be legalized in the Peach State.
Sen. Clint Dixon s (R-45) sports betting bill, , was approved 35-15 by members of the Senate, but amended to require a constitutional amendment before going into effect.
