United, who are fifth in the Premier League, are looking to strengthen their midfield for the remainder of the campaign with record signing Paul Pogba recovering from ankle surgery and Scott McTominay nursing a knee injury. The BBC reported Sporting valued the 25-year-old Fernandes at 60 million pounds ($77.
Now we have a big match against Tottenham this weekend which I must focus on and be ready for, but it is true I am disappointed I was unable to return home to say thank you because of some problems beyond our control. So, I will return to Senegal as soon as possible because it is something very important to me - I will never forget what everybody did for me, everybody who believed in me and everybody who gave me the chance to play football.
Vicente Iborra pulled one back but it mattered little to Real as the club wrapped up their 34th Spanish title. Zidane's side have won all 10 of their matches since Spanish football restarted in June. They head into the final day of the season with an unassailable seven-point lead over second-placed Barcelona. This is better than anything. It takes a tremendous effort to win La Liga," said the Real Madrid boss.
To that end he has a clause in his contract which says he can go at the end of every season in the summer as long as he tells the club by the end of May. And what's more, he can leave for free, which should concentrate the Barcelona minds on ensuring he remains 'happy'. There have been times when he has thought about leaving. Manchester City at one point thought they had a chance of signing him, as did Real Madrid in the early days.
Of course, the Champions League final defeats to their city rivals in 2014 and 2016 will have hurt more than this, but Diego Simeone’s side seem to have some sort of mental block in these matches. It’s holding them back from fulfilling their full potential. MAN OF THE MATCH - Thibaut Courtois (Real Madrid) Not so long ago, there were questions about Courtois’ place at Real Madrid.
It was the sort of triumphant scene that was commonplace at Anfield during the 1970s and 80s, when the team were regular league champions. While there had been plenty of domestic and European success in the years since 1990, one honour eluded them - until now. As Dalglish handed out the medals and then the Premier League trophy, he did it with his own name up in bright red lights on the giant Anfield stand that now bears his name.
These two sides clash for the first time since the 2018 playoffs, with the pair going on quite the journey since then. The hosts went up to the Premier League and straight back down, while Derby narrowly missed out on the top flight back in May’s playoff final. Ahead of this one, both sides are hoping to be in the playoff mix again, with just five points between them going into this meeting at Craven Cottage.
Despite a relatively poor away record, Coventry are no mugs and are certainly not easy to beat, though if we consider the achievements of both teams, it's easy to feel that Wycombe have been overlooked slightly in the betting. It feels as though the last few games have been factored into the price of the hosts a little too much. The excellent home form of The Chairboys cannot be ignored. Frankly, Wycombe's home efforts are superior to Coventry's on the road. They've performed better in terms points and goals, as well as in terms of both shots and shots on target. Having beaten some useful sides such as Sunderland, Burton, Shrewsbury and Doncaster of late, the hosts are backed to get the better of a Coventry side that remains winless on the road.

Tampines Rovers were impressive in offense last season. They have scored 52 goals in 24 games played in the Premier League in Singapore. They have combined 15 goals in the latest 4 head-to-head matches played against Home United in all competitions so I expect Tampines to dominate again.

Vitesse average 1.53 points per game and Feyenoord average 1.60 points per game, with the hosts scoring an average of 1.73 goals per game and their guests scoring an average of 1.80 goals per game, which is why we are expecting a close and competitive match with goals at both ends of the pitch.
City have certainly brought the entertainment value this season, scoring 21 goals and conceding 16, the second highest goals scored and the second highest goals conceded. They’ll need to improve their defensive record this season to take anything from this game though.
I happened to watch Thailand in the Southeast Asian Games, and I am sad to report they were not even good enough to make it past the group stage there with Vietnam finishing top and Indonesia who beat Thailand in the first game of that group stage with 2-0 finishing 2nd in the group, while Thailand U23 finished just 3rd. Thailand displayed a really poor defense in that tournament reason why I do not agree with them being favorites to win this one.
McTominay left Old Trafford on crutches and is now a doubt for Saturday's trip to Burnley. The boy has got the biggest heart and we've seen him heal quickly before but I am not sure if he is going to be ready for Saturday," Solskjaer added. McTominay has played 21 times in all competitions for Manchester United this season. He was booked in the win over Newcastle after just 24 seconds - the quickest yellow card handed out since statisticians Opta began collecting exact time data in 2006-07.
Let’s start with the calibre of saves, and when you look through the highlight reels some of these are very much in the “right out of the top-drawer” area. How about the staggering double save in the 1-1 draw against Arsenal for starters? Guaita made a brilliant low stop to tip Nicolas Pepe’s effort onto the post before quickly getting up to smother the follow-up from Alexandre Lacazette.
The Saints are at least clicking up top, with two players in rich form. Southampton's last 10 Premier League goals have been scored by either Danny Ings (6) or James Ward-Prowse (4). The latter has three in his last four appearances, thanks to strong finishing from dead balls. Given that 33% of Norwich’s away goals conceded have come from set-pieces or penalties, we think Ward Prowse is a well priced anytime goalscorer option.
Southend’s home games produce an average of 4.11 goals while Rotherham’s away games produce an average of 2.80 goals and 78% of their home games have produced over 2.5 goals while 60% of Rotherham’s away games have seen at least three goals scored.
Inter are currently second in Serie A, four points behind a Juventus side whose head coach is former Chelsea manager Maurizio Sarri. Moses joins a cast of players who have left the Premier League for the Serie A club, with Manchester United's former England international Ashley Young signing a six-month contract on Friday.
It was not like after one week I had to leave. No, it was mine. I left everything there; my television, my books, my computer. It was a flat with 'bring me a coffee latte, please', or 'I don't want to go down for dinner, bring my dinner up'. If I was watching football or doing work with one of my assistants I would ask; 'bring us food'.
We are very disappointed by the decision of the Ukrainian FA to hand Taison a one-match ban," world players' union Fifpro said. Sanctioning a victim of racial abuse is beyond comprehension and it plays into the hands of those who promote this kind of disgraceful behaviour. The Ukrainian Association of Football (UAF) confirmed the suspension on Thursday. The UAF also ordered Dynamo to play one game behind closed doors and pay a fine of £16,000.
The Dutch darlings reminded everyone of why they should be everyone's second team in last season's edition, reaching the semi-final stage. Now, they will play Europa League football and face a tricky round of 32 first leg tie away to Getafe. The surprise story of the La Liga campaign, Getafe are currently third behind Real Madrid and Barcelona in the Spanish top flight.
The 2-0 was bad enough but the hairdresser thing leaves me stunned. That is decadent. The distance from that to the golden steak is not far," he said. He was referring to incidents of footballers from other teams who displayed their wealth by eating gold-flaked steaks and uploading pictures on their social media accounts.
Luckily his wife, Dee, was quick to spot the error. She also pointed out the mistake to the club's official app editor, Mark Froggatt, jokingly asking him to "do your homework". Froggatt responded on Twitter: "Hi Mrs W. Apologies to you and Norm - the research quoted is incorrectly missing him from the list. I will update accordingly. Hope you're having a nice weekend. Dee replied: "Ha ha Mark, thank you so much.
Rotherham have a good defensive record at home, but they too have conceded their fair share of goals of late, so plumping for them to keep a clean sheet doesn't appeal. Fortunately for them, they've got lots to offer going forward. Crucially, more than Saturday's visitors.
Gwangju have by no means disgraced themselves with their performances since being promoted. We don't necessarily anticipate a trashing. What we foresee is a comfortable win for the travelling side. Back Junior Negrao to open the scoring.

Cagliari will play against Sampdoria again and this time they face in Copa Italia. Before 3 days we saw a great match between these two teams where Cagliari won that match 4-3 in the last minutes when it was 1-3 for Sampdoria. Cagliari is in a great form and is making a great season until now and I think maybe they want to concetrate in Serie A. After so many games in high performance maybe the coach will play with the players that don't have enough minutes until now in this season. I expect a Sampdoria win here. I don't think that Cagliari will make the same performance. Football is full with surprises but however I'm for a win of Sampdoria here. Draw no Bet is a good option and I'm trying it.

After corona restart competition Bayer have two wins on away stadium with Borussia Monchengladbach (3:1) and Werder Bremen (4:1). Wolfsburg have one won and one loses game. My opinion for this match is over 2.5 goals. Good luck
Celta's last seven fixtures at Balaidos have all produced fewer than 2.5 goals, with Celestes failing to score themselves in their last three. Mallorca meanwhile have seen over 2.5 goals netted in their last two away matches, but under 2.5 goals were registered in four of their five previous outings on the road with Los Bermellones failing to score themselves in four of those games.
COMFORTABLE STAY The maximum security facility has around 195 detainees, including politicians and police officers accused of corruption as well as major drug traffickers. The more dangerous prisoners are housed in a different wing to Ronaldinho, Vera said, adding that he was working to ensure the pair’s stay is "as comfortable as possible".
Hit the bar against the Netherlands with a shot struck so well the woodwork is probably still moving. Andrea Pirlo (Italy) - 11 apps, 2 goals. Tournaments played in: 2004, 2008, 2012. Best finish: Runner-up (2012)The pass master. Ran England ragged in two major tournaments, nobody could get the ball off him. Was superb in 2012 and scored a Panenka v England in a shootout. Michel Platini (France) - 5 apps, 9 goals.
The 26-year-old midfielder wishes to leave at the end of the season, but the co-owners may be reluctant to sell the player at a loss on the £89 million that he cost them from Juventus in 2016. Real Madrid offered just £27. James Rodriguez for the player last summer. Paper Round’s view: Pogba may have blown his chances to secure the big move he has been angling for this season.

Suwon is in hard position, as they were playing in the top tier in the country, and now will face tough challenge in this K 2 league. Their rival is better prepared for the season, and they will try to get among the candidate for the league K1 promotion playoff.
Guardiola's main focus over the remaining nine games of the Premier League is to secure a top four finish, which would allow him to concentrate on the second-leg of City's Champions League last-16 tie with Real Madrid, which may yet be switched from Etihad Stadium to Portugal by Uefa. Eleven points will be enough to achieve that aim, although Guardiola knows qualification for Europe next season is dependent on the Court of Arbitration for Sport overturning Uefa's two season ban when they reveal the outcome of City's appeal in early July.
Solihull Moors and Barrow will face each other in the upcoming match in the National League. Solihull Moors this season have the following results: 13W, 7D and 10L. Meanwhile Barrow have 18W, 5D and 7L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
THURSDAY’S BIG STORIES Never give up. Trust your instincts. When the teamsheets dropped, and we all saw who would and wouldn’t be lining up for Manchester City in the Bernabéu, it’s fair to say we all had the same thought: Isn’t it weird that there isn’t more hilarious Pep Guardiola/Peppy Hare from Star Fox crossover material? …just the Warm-Up, then? Right, right.

Before kick-off, only bottom side Watford, with eight, had scored fewer than Palace's 11. But the visitors, who had not won since 5 October, were aided by their hosts' mistakes and took their chances with aplomb. Talisman Zaha is crucial to Palace's hopes and the forward appears to have put his quiet start to the season behind him.
It's embarrassing," he told BBC Radio 5 Live's Monday Night Club. They should be speaking on the frontline - that's what they are paid for. They are a union. The players are paying them to make these decisions. The players shouldn't have to take these bullets. Ex-England and Blackburn striker Chris Sutton described Taylor as "out of touch". These are the times you need your union boss and once he again he has let them down.
