Four red cards shown in chaotic Wolves pre-season friendly against Levante
Wolves fell to a 2-1 defeat against Levante in a pre-season friendly on Thursday morning, but it wasn’t the result that stole the headlines after four red cards in the first-half. After two brawls in five minutes, Wolves had duo Yerson Mosquera and Daniel Podence sent off before half-time along with two other Levante players. Instead of leaving the second half as a 9-a-side game, referee Jorge Tarraga decided that they should resume with 11 players each in a strange decision that has baffled football fans around the world. Tarraga went one further and blew for the full-time whistle after just 86 minutes, as it appeared he’d had enough of the encounter and brought it to a close as Levante won 2-1 behind-closed-doors. This is crazy. Daniel Podence has been sent off now. He clashed with a Lev...
WATCH: Chelsea’s Conor Gallagher joins exclusive list of worst penalty misses of all time
Chelsea fell to a disappointing defeat in a pre-season friendly against Charlotte FC on penalties, but it was Conor Gallagher’s horrendous miss from 12 yards that stole the headlines. After a successful loan spell at Crystal Palace last season, Gallagher earned himself a nomination for the PFA’s Young Player of the Year award which was eventually won by Manchester City’s Phil Foden. Chelsea supporters around the globe have been itching to see the newfound Conor Gallagher in royal blue, but were shocked with what they saw in Wednesday night’s penalty shootout in Charlotte.

WATCH: Tottenham Target Memphis Depay’s Fleet-Footed Finish in Miami
Barcelona were in pre-season action for the first of four fixtures on their tour of the United States as they put Inter Miami to the sword in a 6-0 thumping. Debutants Andreas Christensen and Raphinha featured in the Blaugrana colours for the first time, with the latter grabbing a goal and assist in an emphatic performance. However, it was Memphis Depay who stole the show with a truly stupendous piece of skill on the 70th minute mark; a vertigo-inducing drag-back that left his marker dumbfounded before firing low past the Miami keeper to make it five for Barca. Watch the goal below. Here’s the fifth from @Memphis 😯 pic.twitter.com/ZxJS8xMZUz — FC Barcelona (@FCBarcelona) July 20, 2022 The Dutchman had a joyous start to life in Barcelona in the immediate aftermath of Lionel Me...
Arsenal favourites to land Youri Tielemans despite interest from Manchester United
Youri Tielemans has just one year left on his contract with Leicester City, and is expected to depart the Foxes this summer in favour of a move across the Premier League. In 158 appearances for Leicester City since his £40m move from Monaco in 2019, Tielemans has scored 24 goals and added 24 assists to the Foxes whilst lifting the FA Cup in 2021. The 25-year-old Belgian scored the winning goal in the FA Cup final against Chelsea last year, marking Leicester’s first taste of silverware since their remarkable Premier League triumph in 2016. Bookmakers Paddy Power are set on the midfielder joining Arsenal before the transfer window shuts that they are offering odds as short as evens. That means a £20 bet would return £40 including your stake. Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur are also s...
Jesse Lingard: Nottingham Forest Usurp West Ham in Bid for Free Agent
After advanced talks over a return to West Ham broke down yesterday, Nottingham Forest are now said to be in the important stages of securing a deal for Jesse Lingard. The 29-year-old is available as a free agent after parting company with boyhood club Manchester United this summer, and a return to West Ham, where he spent six months on loan last season, looked to be the most likely destination. After we reported yesterday that a deal was imminent, a dispute over wage demands which the Hammers are not prepared to meet, has led to an impasse. This has allowed Nottingham Forest to enter the mix, with the Tricky Reds prepared to offer the midfielder a substantial wage package in order to bring him to City Ground next season. Nottingham Forest have made a substantial offer to sign Jesse Lingar...

Tottenham Hotspur confirm signing of Djed Spence on five-year deal from Middlesbrough
Tottenham Hotspur have confirmed the signing of highly-rated England under-21 star Djed Spence from Middlesbrough on a five-year deal. Spence, 21, spent the 2021/22 season on loan at Nottingham Forest where he helped the Reds gain promotion to the Premier League for the first time since 1999 and became a bonafide starlet. The deal includes an initial guaranteed fee of £12.5m and an additional £7.5m in add-ons as Spence will likely slot straight into Antonio Conte’s starting line-up. He said: “To play in the Premier League and at a big club like Tottenham Hotspur is a dream come true. “I’m just thankful I’m here and I have this opportunity. Everyone wants to play in the Premier League. For a big club, Champions League football and with some of the best players, it’s a privilege to be here. ...
A Shopping List of Strikers Bayern Munich Could Sign to Replace Robert Lewandowski
Robert Lewandowski’s departure to Barcelona was confirmed this week after 12 seasons in the Bundesliga, and as such, Bayern Munich have been tasked with replacing one of, if not the, finest striker of his generation. While replacing a player who scored a breathtaking 344 goals in 375 games is a near-impossible undertaking, it will be interesting to see the type of profile the German champions will attempt to bring in. While the Polish international undoubtedly defined an unprecedented period of dominance in Germany for Bayern Munich, they were right to sell him as he approached 34, even if they were reluctant to do so. £42.5m leaves the hierarchy with a substantial budget to finance a replacement, and while the arrival of former Liverpool winger Sadio Mane will add a serious goal threat, t...
West Ham Close to Agreeing Double Swoop for Jesse Lingard and Armando Broja
West Ham are close to securing two more summer signings with the club looking to bring in former loanee Jesse Lingard on a free, while they are also pushing hard in negotiations for Southampton’s Armando Broja. Just last week it seemed as though Chelsea were reluctant to let talented young forward Armando Broja leave on a permanent deal, with a possible loan deal the likeliest outcome for West Ham. It now seems the Hammers are closing in on a permanent transfer after they tabled a £30m proposal, which is believed to be enough to secure his services. The English-born striker, who represents Albania at international level, spent last season on loan at Southampton where he caught the attention of a whole host of England’s top clubs. With five goals in 15 appearances, including three in his la...
