Zinedine Zidane not interested to replace Solskjaer at Manchester United
Manchester United dismissed Ole Gunnar Solskjaer on Sunday following their 4-1 thrashing at Watford. The Norwegian boss was already under huge pressure after the Red Devils’ disappointing defeats to Liverpool and Manchester City in the Premier League. However, Saturday’s thrashing at the hands of Watford proved to be the final straw for Solskjaer at Old Trafford. The 48-year-old was appointed as caretaker manager in December 2018 after the dismissal of Jose Mourinho. But he was handed a long-term contract after he guided them to a series of victories. The former Cardiff City manager led the club to a third-place finish in the 2019-20 season before securing them second spot in the league last term. However, he has now lost his job at United after remaining in t...
Barcelona consider cancelling Samuel Umtiti contract
While Samuel Umtiti is hoping to break into the Barcelona first team, the Catalan giants are considering cancelling the Frenchman’s contract. According to reports in Spanish media, Barcelona are seriously considering the possibility of ending their association with Samuel Umtiti. The Frenchman has had a nightmarish run of injuries in recent years that has seen him become a rare fixture in the starting XI. Barcelona are aware that in Umtiti, they have a world class defender in their squad. Unfortunately, recurring fitness issues mean that they haven’t really seen a lot of the former Lyon man ever since he guided France to World Cup glory in 2018. Following his heroics in Russia, the 28-year-old returned to Camp Nou with a serious knee injury. Once he was able to regain full fitness, Umtiti ...

Verona vs Empoli preview, team news, betting tips & prediction
Hellas Verona will be eager to continue an impressive run of form in the Serie A that has seen them move a little further away from a potential relegation fight.

LeBron James Bloodies Isaiah Stewart’s Face, Leads to Crazed Altercation
Sunday’s NBA match between the Detroit Pistons and the Los Angeles Lakers has resulted in a flagrant foul 2 — unnecessary and excessive contact committed by a player against an opponent — and ejection for LeBron James, two technical fouls and an ejection for Isaiah Stewart, and a technical foul for Russell Westbrook. This is just James’ second ejection in his 19-year career. The altercation between James and Stewart ignited when James struck Stewart in the face leaving the corner of his eye bloody — according to the team, this required five stitches. Reacting to the hit, a furious Stewart charged over to James where a potential fight almost broke out. With most of the team on the court separating the two, Stewart broke free several times in an attempt to chase down LeBron and even Westbroo...
