“It’s going well” – Manchester City star Kevin De Bruyne on Erling Haaland cooperation (Video)

London based Premier League side Fulham have confirmed that defender Moritz Volz, has left the club at the end of his contract.

The 26-year-old German, who had a spell with Arsenal and Wimbledon before heading to Craven Cottage in 2004, made 146 appearances for Fulham.

Volz scored what was the 15,000th Barclays Premier League goal in a game against Chelsea during December 2006, and spent a spell on loan at Ipswich in the 2008/2009 campaign.

Portsmouth were left waiting to discover Tuesday if their transfer embargo would be lifted by the English Premier League after presenting officials with new information .

Portsmouth who lifted the FA Cup in 2008 but have seen most of that squad leave since are four points adrift at the bottom of the Premier League.

But manager Avram Grant has been unable to purchase new players thus far during the January transfer window after being placed under an embargo by league chiefs regarding unpaid fees to other clubs from previous deals.

Now there is a suggestion that the seven million pounds in television revenue Portsmouth were due to receive from the Premier league will now be distributed direct to other clubs.

A Premier League spokesman said after Tuesday s …

Brendan Rodgers says he expects a Liverpool squad in transition to improve over the coming weeks following his sacking as manager on Sunday.

Rodgers saw his three-year spell at Anfield come to an end following a 1-1 draw with Everton at Goodison Park, with Liverpool having made a disappointing start to the campaign.

The Northern Irishman helped Liverpool challenge for the Premier League title in 2013-14 but has failed to get close to those heights since.

With Jurgen Klopp and Carlo Ancelotti the front-runners to replace him, Rodgers suggested his successor will have a sufficient quality in his squad to enjoy success.

I am, of course, incredibly disappointed to be leaving Liverpool Football Club. It has been both an honour and a privilege to manage one …

Paul Pogba is coming off from a formidable World Cup victory with France.

The Manchester United midfielder put in a string of commanding displays to silence his critics and emerge as a proper leader of the young French generation.

Having lost the Euro 2016 final, Les Bleus were particularly motivated to win the next big thing and they did. After all, it’s fair to say Paul Pogba’s incredible team talk ahead of the final against Croatia definitely helped boost the team’s morale.

Have a look.

Jack Grealish thanked Pep Guardiola after scoring his first goal of the season in Manchester City s 3-0 win at Wolves, admitting critics were right to question his output.

The England international opened his account for the campaign after 55 seconds at Molineux when he applied the finishing touch to Kevin De Bruyne s perfectly timed cross.

Grealish, who netted six times during his maiden season at City after moving from Aston Villa for £100million, was substituted in the 58th minute of the Champions League victory over Borussia Dortmund in midweek.

He was grateful to be thrown in from the start once more, netting his first goal since a 2-2 draw with West Ham in May, and hopes to continue to repay Guardiola s faith.

It was a long time coming and nice…

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp is more concerned about Darwin Nunez’s physical state than his mental one after the Uruguay international emerged as a doubt for the crucial trip to Arsenal.

Nunez set a new record for the number of times one player has hit the frame of the goal in a game with four in Wednesday’s 4-1 win over Chelsea, taking his tally to nine in the Premier League alone and six more than anyone else.

The 24-year-old is regularly criticised for not scoring enough but Nunez has 11 goals in all competitions and an assist count also in double figures.

The Reds must assess the fitness of Darwin Nunez ahead of Sunday’s visit to Arsenal

AFC Champions League holders Guangzhou Evergrande have been paired with old foes Jeonbuk Motors in the group stage of the 2014 competition.

The Chinese side, who completed a remarkable double this year by lifting both their domestic title and the continental crown, were pitted against their Korean rivals for the second straight campaign at the draw on Tuesday.

Marcello Lippi s men lifted the Champions League trophy last month after a two-legged victory over Seoul, becoming the first Chinese outfit in 23 years to win Asia s premier club competition.

A 1-1 draw at the Tianhe Stadium in the second leg was enough to edge Evergrande to victory on away goals, after a 2-2 scoreline in the first encounter.

They were held on both occasions by Jeonbuk the 2006 winners last…

Barcelona defender Marc Bartra knows his team cannot afford to take their eye off the ball ahead of Saturday s trip to doomed Cordoba.

The Catalan giants begin a massive UEFA Champions League semi-final against Bayern Munich the side who thrashed them 7-0 at the same stage of the 2012-13 competition at home on Wednesday.

But before that comes a Liga clash at Cordoba where defeat could deal a hammer blow to their title hopes. Table-toppers Barcelona lead arch-rivals Real Madrid by just two points with four matches remaining. And rock-bottom Cordoba have everything to play for also, knowing failure to win will see them relegated.

So despite the distraction of the Bayern clash, Bartra has called for focus.

He told the club s official website: The best thi…

Market: Dinamo Brest win

Odds: 

Once again turning our attention to this weekend s Belarusian Premier League fixtures, Dinamo Brest will be hoping to make a return to winning ways when they host a struggling Shakhtyor at the Regional Sport Complex on Saturday evening.

Starting with the hosts, after coming off the back of what was a shock 1-0 defeat away at a high-flying Vitebsk last weekend, there is no doubt that Dinamo Brest will be glad to make a return to home soil on Saturday. Including a thumping 3-1 win against Isloch a fortnight ago, Sergey Kovalchuk s side have lost just a sole Premier League fixture in front of their own supporters in their previous 11 appearances, a run that stems back to July 2019. Still trying to find some stability since opening th…

AS Roma are one of those Italian clubs that have made moves towards the Premier League, when looking for new signings. Although they are not as financially powerful as English sides, they did get two players to join them on loan for the 2019-20 season. Chris Smalling came from Manchester United and Henrikh Mkhitaryan also arrived from Arsenal. But now they could be after a Liverpool player.

According to Corriere dello Sport, Roma have a couple of options for the departing Smalling as it seems Roma will not be eager to overspend in order to get Smalling to join them permanently. One of them is Liverpool defender Dejan Lovren and the other is Jean-Clair Todibo from Barcelona.

Roma have stated they would like to keep Smalling, but as it seems unrealistic, they might pounce…
