There might not be a Liverpool player who has divided an opinion more during Jurgen Klopp’s reign. Naby Keita was a marmite character when he played, although what could be agreed on was the midfielder’s woeful injury record. Purchased for £52 million, Keita was a rare transfer failure during Klopp’s time as manager as he left on a free transfer last summer. Meanwhile, Thiago Alcantara is set to follow that path in a matter of weeks. No-one has ever denied the Spaniard’s swashbuckling qualities yet he too has spent too much time on the treatment table after being signed from…

Chelsea have a busy summer ahead of them as they look to improve their foundations and aim to kick on following yet another difficult season. Mauricio Pochettino’s young Blues squad has had to deal with many injuries for much of the campaign, culminating in major inconsistency results-wise. However, two solid wins against London rivals in a row have put Chelsea within reach of a Europa League place, so there’s definitely some optimism going forward. With the summer transfer window on the horizon, we could yet see the Blues bolster their ranks further. And now, according to journalist Rudy Galetti, the…

Cole Palmer has been rewarded for a stellar debut campaign at Chelsea with an awards double. Palmer has enjoyed a sensational first term at Stamford Bridge since joining from Premier League rivals Manchester City in a £42.5million deal on transfer deadline day last summer, quickly becoming the club’s attacking talisman under Mauricio Pochettino by notching 26 goals and providing 13 assists in 45 appearances across all competitions so far. 21 of those goals have come in the Premier League, where only former team-mate Erling Haaland (25) is now ahead in the Golden Boot race after notching four times in City’s…

The Pittsburgh Steelers are inviting Jonathan Ward to their rookie mini-camp, per Aaron Wilson. Ward spent last season with the Arizona Cardinals and Tennessee Titans, where he only totaled eight carries and two receptions on the season. Ward came into the NFL in 2020 undrafted out of Central Michigan, where he was a standout back.

The 26-year old was with the Cardinals from 2020-22 before being cut…

DENVER—The Denver Nuggets spent much of their season battling with NBA referees and players were upset about the officiating in what will likely be the team’s undoing. During the Nuggets’ Game 2 blowout loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves on Monday, Michael Malone screamed at, Jamal Murray threw objects at and Aaron Gordon charged at referees. While there were no doubt some questionable calls that went against Denver. It was a tight contest still when Malone blew up and Minny quickly went on the run that began the blowout. Malone’s issues with the refs in that case were about a tough…

Chelsea’s dealings in the transfer market in recent seasons have been questionable, to say the least, splashing over £1bn on new players with the majority failing to make an impact. The club have spent upwards of £120m on Roméo Lavia and Wesley Fofana alone, with the two players only making a combined 21 appearances since their respective moves to Stamford Bridge. However, the club have conducted brilliant business offloading players who were on big wages at Stamford Bridge and have failed to make any impact at their new club. Mason Mount is a prime example, with the boyhood Chelsea fan…

Chelsea abstained from the latest vote on anchoring rules because owner Todd Boehly is trying to befriend other top-flight clubs. That is the view of finance expert Kieran Maguire, who exclusively told Football Insider that he was surprised that Chelsea did not use their vote to oppose the new regulations. Top flight clubs met on Monday (29 April) to discuss and vote on new anchoring proposals which are designed to cap spending to a multiple of the lowest earnings in the division. Only Aston Villa, Manchester United and Manchester City voted against the proposals, with the new rules now set…

Atletico Madrid are plotting an ambitious LOAN MOVE for Darwin Nunez ahead of the summer transfer window, according to a new report in Spain. It’s no secret that Diego Simeone’s side are looking for a top-class forward to replace Alvaro Morata and Fichajes has revealed the details of Atleti’s three-man shortlist for their soon-to-be-vacant No.9 position. Gabriel Jesus has been suggested as a potential outgoing for Arsenal this summer with the Brazilian largely failing to make the grade under Mikel Arteta at the Emirates Stadium, scoring only FOUR Premier League goals all season. The 27-year-old could well be sacrificed in…

Last week, the Los Angeles Lakers made a big decision when it was revealed that they would be firing not only head coach Darvin Ham but also the entirety of their 2023-24 coaching staff, including Phil Handy, who had garnered a reputation as a favorite of both fans and players during his Los Angeles tenure. Ham once again struggled to call timeouts at opportune times and put together sensible lineups during the Lakers’ second straight postseason loss to the Denver Nuggets, although that didn’t stop some from once again bringing out the “coach killer” label for LeBron James after the…
