Barcelona have identified Harry Kane as their top target to replace Robert Lewandowski next summer, viewing the 32-year-old England captain as the perfect long-term successor to the 37-year-old striker. Lewandowski’s contract expires in June, and Barcelona are reportedly willing to trigger a £57m release clause in Kane’s deal with Bayern Munich to bring him to Camp Nou. Since joining Bayern from Tottenham in 2023 for £100m, Kane has scored 108 goals in 113 games, helping the club reclaim the Bundesliga title and ending his personal trophy drought. Although Kane has expressed openness to staying at Bayern until his contract ends…
The Premier League has approved fixture changes for Arsenal and Crystal Palace ahead of their Carabao Cup quarter-final meeting on Tuesday, 23 December at the Emirates Stadium. Originally set to play on Sunday, 21 December, Arsenal’s trip to Everton and Palace’s match at Leeds will now take place at 8pm on Saturday, 20 December, to allow both sides more recovery time. Palace, who face KuPS in the Europa Conference League on 18 December, requested the change to avoid playing three times in five days. A Premier League spokesperson said: “Player welfare is a priority… this adjustment ensures adequate recovery time…
Manchester City produced a dominant display to beat Liverpool 3-0 and close the gap on leaders Arsenal to four points, ending Liverpool’s faint title hopes. After Erling Haaland missed a controversial early penalty, he made amends by heading in his 19th goal of the season. A deflected strike from Nico González made it 2-0 before halftime, and Jérémy Doku sealed the win with a brilliant curling effort after tormenting Liverpool’s defence all game. Liverpool had a Virgil van Dijk goal ruled out for offside, but City’s control and intensity left them with few complaints. The win marked Pep Guardiola’s 1,000th…
Harry Kane struck a stoppage-time equaliser as Bayern Munich drew 2-2 at Union Berlin, preserving their unbeaten start but ending a 16-game winning streak. Danilho Doekhi twice put Union ahead, including in the 83rd minute, before Kane’s 13th Bundesliga goal rescued a point. Bayern stay top on 28 points, six clear after RB Leipzig’s 3-1 loss at Hoffenheim. Elsewhere, Borussia Dortmund conceded a 97th-minute equaliser in a 1-1 draw at Hamburg. In Serie A, Milan surrendered a 2-0 lead to draw 2-2 at Parma, missing the chance to overtake Napoli. Juventus were held 0-0 by Torino, while in La Liga,…
Ruben Amorim criticised his Manchester United side for becoming complacent after they surrendered control in a 3-3 draw at Tottenham, despite leading for much of the game. United looked set for victory after Bryan Mbeumo’s opener, only to collapse under second-half pressure as Mathys Tel and Richarlison turned the game around. A 96th-minute header from Matthijs de Ligt rescued a point, extending United’s unbeaten run to five matches — but Amorim was far from satisfied. “We have a lot of problems — we are just at the beginning,” Amorim said. “We were comfortable in the game, but we should do…
David Raya extended his remarkable unbeaten run as Arsenal matched a club record for consecutive clean sheets that has stood since 1903. The Spanish goalkeeper was rarely tested during the 3-0 Champions League win over Slavia Prague, with the only scare — a late penalty — overturned by VAR. Raya, who has now gone more than 12 hours without conceding, made just his seventh save in four European games this season. His performances have helped Arsenal to eight straight shutouts and 10 consecutive victories in all competitions. Despite the dominance of Mikel Arteta’s side, Raya insists focus is key: “You…
Chelsea remain firmly behind Enzo Maresca’s squad rotation strategy after Wednesday’s 2-2 Champions League draw with Qarabag, despite scrutiny over his decision to make seven changes to the starting lineup. Club sources insist there is no concern over Maresca’s approach, which is viewed as a long-term strategy to keep players fresh and manage a demanding schedule across four competitions. Chelsea believe their deep squad can only thrive if rotation is consistent, particularly after a disrupted pre-season and ongoing injury issues. Maresca was without Pedro Neto, Cole Palmer, Levi Colwill and Benoît Badiashile in Baku, while several others — including Moisés…
Tottenham defender Destiny Udogie has been identified as the Premier League player allegedly threatened at gunpoint by an agent in north London last September. The incident reportedly occurred on 6 September in Cockfosters, Barnet, while Udogie was out with a friend. Police arrested a 31-year-old man two days later on suspicion of possession of firearms with intent, blackmail, and driving without a licence. He has been released on bail pending further investigation. There is no suggestion that the suspect is Udogie’s agent. The 21-year-old Italian international was not on national duty at the time and returned to play in Spurs’…
Sir David Attenborough’s new BBC series Kingdom captures extraordinary scenes from Zambia’s Luangwa Valley — including a lion rescuing a pregnant hyena from a pack of wild dogs. Filmed over five years, the series follows four rival carnivore families — lions, hyenas, leopards, and wild dogs — revealing fierce battles, rare cooperation, and emotional moments like newborn lion cubs opening their eyes. Executive producer Mike Gunton said: “Only nature could write a story like this.” Scientists from the Zambia Carnivore Programme used the footage to study animal behaviour and conservation challenges such as poaching and habitat loss. The show also…
Jon Gorrotxategi’s first derby for Real Sociedad ended in glory as his 92nd-minute goal sealed a wild 3–2 win over Athletic Club in San Sebastián — the first time in 178 Basque derbies that the decisive goal came in added time. In torrential rain at the Reale Arena, Real Sociedad’s academy graduate smashed home from close range after a frantic scramble, sparking euphoric celebrations and fireworks above the Bay of Biscay. “I hit it with my soul,” said Gorrotxategi, whose strike gave new coach Sergi Francisco a crucial win after a difficult run. The drama began earlier when Ander Barrenetxea,…
