Bookmaker: 

The Premier League is back once again this weekend with the final set of fixtures prior to the upcoming international break. There are plenty of showpiece games happening across the next few days with a good chunk of them happening on Sunday but in the early kick-off tomorrow, we should be in for a cracker at Old Trafford.

Manchester United will play host to Everton in a clash between two sides who will fancy themselves to have a good season between now and May.

Manchester United are so unpredictable that we think it ll take until the final kick of the campaign for us to determine whether or not they ve been a success story in 2021/22. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has done everythin…

West Ham have reached an agreement with Dutch giants Ajax over the loan signing of Serbian forward Miralem Sulejmani, the English Premier League club confirmed on Wednesday.

A club statement said: West Ham can confirm the club have reached agreement with Ajax over the loan transfer of Miralem Sulejmani.

The club have agreed terms with Ajax and also with the Serbian international forward but the 21-year-old s move from Amsterdam to London is subject to a work permit hearing.

West Ham United will make no further comment on this matter until the result of that hearing is known.

Ajax spent a record 13 million pounds on Sulejmani to take him to Amsterdam from Heerenveen in 2008.

However, Sulejmani who can play as a striker or on the wing was critic…

BIRMINGHAM, United Kingdom (AFP) – Former Republic of Ireland midfielder Stephen Ireland says he is delighted to have moved to Aston Villa despite claiming to have been forced out of Manchester City.

After struggling to find any way to re-establish himself in manager Roberto Mancini s plans with City, Ireland was offloaded to Villa as part of the deal that saw England midfielder James Milner going the other way.

The 23-year-old Ireland went from being the Player of the Year at Manchester City for the 2008-09 season to playing little part under Mancini after the Italian took over last term.

I thought that was really unfair. I was first in and last out of training and no one worked any harder than me, he said of claims he had a suspect attitude last season.

Former Croatia international Davor Suker claimed on Sunday he knows where Sevilla midfielder Ivan Rakitic will play next season.

Croatian Football Federation president Suker was coy about his knowledge, claiming he does not speak Spanish very well when pressed on Rakitic s future despite having played eight seasons in La Liga.

Rakitic, who captained Sevilla to UEFA Europa League glory this season, has one more season on his contract but is widely expected to be sold by the Spanish club, so they do not miss out on a transfer fee.

I know where he ll be playing next season but I can t say anything, Suker told Cadena Cope.

Rakitic is set to be included in Croatia s final squad for the FIFA World Cup.

The 26-year-old midfielder has made 147 appearances for Sevil…

AS Roma took revenge on CFR Cluj and got their Champions League challenge off the mark with a 2-1 victory at the Stadio Olimpico on Tuesday.

Goals from French centre-back Philippe Mexes and Italy striker Marco Borriello secured the Romans their first Group E points despite Ionut Rada s late consolation.

Following their 2-0 defeat at Bayern Munich two weeks ago, Claudio Ranieri s men now sit third in the group on three points level with Cluj ahead of a double-header against FC Basel.

Two years ago on their Champions League debut, Cluj had stunned the hosts here with a 2-1 success but there was to be no repeat despite the Romanians twice hitting the woodwork.

After a slow start, the game exploded into life on the half hour mark as the visitors should have …

Manchester United have no interest in bringing Zlatan Ibrahimovic back to Old Trafford during the MLS off-season, according to manager Jose Mourinho.

Ibrahimovic joined United on a free transfer from Paris Saint-Germain in 2016 and scored 28 goals in all competitions that season.

However, the former Sweden star suffered a cruciate ligament injury before the end of the campaign and, after battling back to first-team action by the end of 2017, he moved Stateside to LA Galaxy.

In 26 league games for the Los Angeles side, the 37-year-old has struck 22 times, while United s first-choice striker Romelu Lukaku is in the midst of a much-discussed lean spell.

Nevertheless, Mourinho is not interested in in offering Ibrahimovic a route back into European football as…

Jose Mourinho claims he does not know whether Manchester United will bring in January signings amid reports the Premier League giants will look to sell Paul Pogba in the next transfer window.

United face Liverpool at Anfield on Sunday, where defeat would leave them 19 points behind their title-chasing rivals.

Mourinho has frequently voiced his displeasure at United s failure to secure the reinforcements at centre-back he wanted for this season and a perceived disparity in spending between his own club and others in the upper echelons of England s top flight.

Pogba has been on the bench for United s previous two Premier League games and his most notable contribution to the midweek Champions League defeat in Valencia was a glaring close-range miss.

Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer wants star forward Marcus Rashford to focus on football following his recovery from a shoulder injury.

Rashford underwent shoulder surgery in August and is in line to make his first appearance of the season when United visit Leicester City in the Premier League on Saturday.

The 23-year-old England international has been hailed for his off-field work, awarded an MBE in his campaign to end child poverty.

But Solskjaer urged Rashford to prioritise his football career moving forward.

Javier Chicharito Hernandez got on the scoresheet as LA Galaxy breathed life in their MLS playoffs aspirations with a 2-1 home win over Portland Timbers on Saturday.

Sacha Kljestan netted a stoppage-time penalty to clinch all three points for Galaxy, who had been in a freefall with a winless nine-game span.

Chicharito poked in at the back post for the opening goal in the 62nd minute, pouncing on Larrys Mabiala s defensive error from Victor Vazquez s ball into the box.

The Timbers equalized 10 minutes later when Sebastian Blanco s cross-cum-shot drifted over Galaxy goalkeeper Jonathan Bond and in off the post.

Blanco hit the upright from a long-range effort, before LA won a penalty when substitute Efrain Alvarez was brought down inside the box by Josecarlo…
