According to reports, Jack Grealish and four of his Manchester City team-mates are ‘thinking of leaving’ the Premier League club in the summer. Man City‘s hopes of completing a double treble ended in midweek as Real Madrid knocked them out of the Champions League. The La Liga giants won 4-3 on penalties after the two sides drew 4-4 on aggregate. This season could still be a successful one for Man City as they face Chelsea in the semi-finals of the FA Cup on Saturday afternoon. They are also two points clear at the top of the Premier League with six…

Chelsea and Paris Saint-Germain are reportedly battling to sign Napoli star Victor Osimhen in the summer window. On April 11th, Il Mattino reported PSG are one step away from agreeing a deal for the 25-year-old’s transfer. A day later, the same outlet stated the Blues must do something crazy to get ahead of the Ligue 1 side in the transfer race. It was also said Chelsea, at the moment, are hesitant to proceed with this operation. This doesn’t mean the Premier League side have given up on the former Lille man. That’s at least what journalist Rudy Galetti is stating,…

THE performances of the 21-year-old Cole Palmer so far this season have been nothing short of sensational. The young attacking midfielder moved to Chelsea from Manchester City at the very end of last summer’s transfer window for £47m and he has not looked back. Often in transfers of this type there is not one clear winner from the deal but in this instance it is fair to say that Chelsea have struck gold. At the time of writing, Palmer has scored 20 goals with nine assists in 29 Premier League matches for his new side. A hat-trick in the 4-3…

There will be under three days between the penalty shoot-out in the Champions League vs Real Madrid and kick-off at Wembley in the FA Cup on Saturday. Pep Guardiola insisted the schedule ‘is what it is’, and that Manchester City would deal with the hand they have been dealt – but the extra-time and penalties against Real Madrid won’t have helped his preparation for a huge FA Cup semi-final against Chelsea. What also won’t have helped was the revelation that Erling Haaland, Kevin De Bruyne and Manu Akanji all asked to be substituted during the Real contest, throwing their participation…

Manchester City needed to find a goal against ‘Kings of Europe’ Real Madrid on Wednesday night. So they took off Erling Haaland. And in extra time with penalties looming, City took off goalscorer Kevin De Bruyne – one of their better spot kick takers. Pep Guardiola revealed post-match that both players requested to come off, raising doubts over fitness concerns ahead of the FA Cup semi-final with Chelsea at the very least. Perhaps more alarming, though, both substitutions were arguably the right call to make. Haaland had again struggled to influence the game against Madrid. He was unfortunate to see…

Pep Guardiola has challenged his Manchester City to prove they are a top club by beating the ‘toughest opponent’ they could have. City were left licking their wounds on Wednesday after a penalty shootout ended their hopes of winning consecutive Champions League trophies with Real Madrid knocking them out at the Etihad. There is little time for the players to reflect on their defeat as they face Chelsea in an FA Cup semi-final on Saturday. It is the first major defeat felt by City in nearly two years – the last time Real Madrid knocked them out of the Champions…

Manchester City and penalties – a marriage that will never last. Pep Guardiola endured more shootout pain this week when Real Madrid knocked them out of the Champions League, having been on the back foot and ropes for most of the second leg of their quarter-final. That result deprived City of another trip to Wembley and the last time they were at the national stadium they were losing on penalties to Arsenal in the Community Shield. However, as they prepare for Saturday’s FA Cup semi-final with Chelsea hoping to book one more trip to the capital history is on their…

Manchester City once again travel to Wembley Stadium for an FA Cup Semi-final, as they take on Mauricio Pochettino’s Chelsea on Saturday evening. Despite the exciting possibility of reaching a second successive FA Cup final, spirits may not be as high as the surface following midweek disappointment sustained in the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals. Following a dramatic 3-3 draw at the Santiago Bernabeu the week prior, Pep Guardiola’s treble winners had to defend their turf on Wednesday, as they welcomed Real Madrid to the Etihad Stadium in the second-leg of their last-eight tie. An electric atmosphere was not matched by…

Officials within Manchester City’s offices have spoken about a potential candidate to replace Pep Guardiola, when the Catalan’s time at the club ultimately comes to an end. Conversations in various quarters are beginning to intensify as Guardiola approaches the final year of his current Manchester City agreement, signed in the autumn of 2022 and a relaxed approach taken towards his now-expiring deal. Many are beginning to wonder whether Pep Guardiola will extend by a further 12 months in order to see himself reach the decade mark in charge of Manchester City, having first joined the club in the summer of…

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola begged Cole Palmer to stay at the Champions before he moved to Chelsea. Palmer, 21, has been strutting his stuff for the Blues after making his move in the summer. He was on electric form on Monday (April 15) evening, netting four goals against a hapless Everton side at Stamford Bridge. The youngster is now tied at the top of the top goalscorer rankings with City’s superstar Erling Haaland, despite being an attacking midfielder and not a forward. When asked if he regretted letting Palmer leave, Guardiola laughed and replied: “No, he’s an exceptional player.…
