football live scores : Man City 0-2 Spurs

Thomas frank Tottenham Hotspur made it back-to-back Premier League victories under new manager Thomas Frank by stunning Manchester City once again at the Etihad Stadium. Spurs came here last November and inflicted a 4-0 humbling of City in a scintillating performance, and went home once more with all three points courtesy of a resolute defensive display. They started slowly as Omar Marmoush latched onto Pedro Porro's loose header and squeezed a shot narrowly wide of the far post before seeing a thunderous strike from range pushed away by Guglielmo Vicario. The Egyptian was lively early on and forced another excellent save from the Spurs goalkeeper after being played through by Erling Haaland.With their first real threat of the game, Spurs took the lead courtesy of a lightning ...

latest scores:Chelsea 5-1 West Ham

Joao Pedro Chelsea came from behind to thrash West Ham 5-1 and leave former Blues boss Graham Potter under pressure just two games into the Premier League season. Potter has won just five of 21 games since taking charge in January and has endured a miserable start to the new campaign after a 3-0 defeat to newly-promoted Sunderland last weekend. Lucas Paqueta's brilliant strike gave the home side early hope on Friday, blasting into the top corner from long range, but they quickly capitulated. Joao Pedro scored the first of Chelsea's three goals from corners before Pedro Neto and Enzo Fernandez added to the world champions' lead. Moises Caicedo and Trevoh Chalobah then took advantage of a nightmare night for new West Ham goalkeeper Mads Hermansen. Victory took Chelsea, who drew their openi...

live scores: Bayern 6-0 Leipzig

Harry Kane Harry Kane scored a second-half hat-trick in 14 minutes and Michael Olise bagged two goals as champions Bayern Munich obliterated visitors RB Leipzig 6-0 in the Bundesliga opener on Friday, putting down an early marker. England captain and man-of-the-match Kane, who was the league's top scorer in the past two seasons, opened his account in the 64th minute before bagging two more goals in the 74th and 78th to complete Bayern's impressive show of strength in the season premiere. Vincent Kompany's team, who lifted the German Supercup last week with a 2-1 win over VfB Stuttgart, looked more than ready for the league start with a high pressing game that troubled Leipzig, and some sharp finishing.

manchester united news and transfer

Senne Lammens Manchester United are closing in on the signing of Royal Antwerp goalkeeper Senne Lammens for around €20 million, with the 23-year-old expected to compete with André Onana. Onana’s place at United has been under scrutiny following a string of unconvincing displays after his arrival from Inter for £44.4 million in July 2023. The Cameroon international was left out of the squad for the opening-day loss to Arsenal last weekend only to see his replacement, Altay Bayindir, make an error that directly led to Riccardo Calafiori’s winning goal. Onana expects to remain at United beyond the current transfer window having been made aware that the club have rebuffed enquiries for his services but he is now poised to face further pressure for his place from Lammens.

Arteta: Arsenal, Eze deal not due to Havertz injury

Eberechi Eze Mikel Arteta has insisted Arsenal's pursuit of Crystal Palace midfielder Eberechi Eze is not a response to Kai Havertz's latest injury setback.Eze is expected to undergo a medical imminently ahead of his £67.5 million ($91m) move from Palace after Arsenal hijacked Tottenham's interest in the England international during a dramatic day in midweek. Havertz missed open training at Emirates Stadium on Wednesday morning, around the time Spurs finalised terms with Palace and Eze believing they had won the race for his signature. However, Arsenal accelerated their own interest in Eze and matched Tottenham's offer with the player's boyhood affinity for the club helping swing his decision in their favour. Havertz requires further examination to determine the full extent of ...

Rasmus Hojlund 1 Manchester United striker Rasmus Hojlund is open to joining Napoli in the coming days, but not on any formula. Although he isn’t officially part of the so-called ‘bomb squad’ with Jadon Sancho and fellow outcasts, the 22-year-old has become surplus to requirements at Carrington since the arrival of Benjamin Sesko. Ruben Amorim has made it abundantly clear by leaving the Dane on the bench for the duration of the friendly contest against Fiorentina, and then dropping him from the squad altogether ahead of the Premier League opener against Arsenal. In recent weeks, the former Atalanta star declared his intention to stay at Man Utd and fight for his place. However, the manager’s recent selections suggest that the striker might not be handed enough opportunities (if any) to ...

Bayer Leverkusen keen to sign Jonathan Clauss from Nice

Jonathan Clauss Bayer Leverkusen are keen to sign France international right-back Jonathan Clauss (32) from OGC Nice, according to Foot Mercato. The former Lens and Marseille fullback was reportedly the subject of serious interest from a still-unnamed club, and the latter is actually Erik ten Hag’s Werkself.

Ruben Amorim Manchester United renew interest in Agoume Manchester United are in the market for a midfielder this summer, and could turn to La Liga to fill that need. The Red Devils have been closely linked with Brighton and Hove Albion man Carlos Baleba, but they could be priced out of a move. It seems Ruben Amorim is keen to have someone through the door that can glue things together in the midfield though, and Sevilla man Lucien Agoume has emerged as a surprise candidate for a move. Agoume, who arrived from Inter 18 months ago, initially on loan, started Matias Almeyda’s first game on Sunday and scored a brilliant goal in their 3-2 defeat to Athletic Club. It was reported by Caught Offside that United had an interest in Agoume back in January, but the trail went rather q...

The Giallorossi will bring in the Aston Villa star on loan with an initial €2/3M fee and a €22M option to buy, Fabrizio Romano and Mattia Moretto report (via SOSFanta). Gian Piero Gasperini wants more pacey attackers, and so the capital club will continue to add. The Englishman continued to have some reservations on Monday. Manchester United would accept their €20M bid, but they need to come to terms with the player first.

Daniel Farke Daniel Farke hails Lukas Nmecha’s ‘ice-cold finish’ in Leeds’ win over Everton Daniel Farke revealed he almost took the ball off Lukas Nmecha before the substitute’s late penalty secured Leeds a winning return to the Premier League against Everton. Summer signing Nmecha, a free transfer from Wolfsburg, held his nerve to bury his 84th-minute spot kick – just six minutes after stepping off the bench to replace Joel Piroe – to clinch Leeds a deserved 1-0 victory at Elland Road. Farke said: “I was a bit worried. He’s on the sheet for taking penalties, but as a substitute, he needed more touches and I was thinking of stepping in there and taking the ball off him. “Thank God I calmed myself down and he prove me right with an ice-cold finish. He deserves today to be in...

In the first ten minutes of the match against Arsenal, the team showed both energy and intention, but that lead soon disappeared. Altay Bayindir made a mistake in catching the ball on a simple corner, and Riccardo Calafiori scored with his head to give the lead. After this, United tried, and Benjamin Sesko was brought on from the bench by Ruben Amorim, but the equaliser was not found. Bryan Mbeumo created a chance with a brilliant bicycle kick, then tried to score with a header, but David Raya stopped it. When the match ended, only disappointment was clearly seen on the faces of Manchester United. More than this defeat, there was talk about Rasmus Højlund.

Roony Bardghj Barcelona are reportedly set to register new signing Roony Bardghj with the first team for the 2025-26 season following a recommendation from La Liga. The Catalans had been mulling over whether to register Roony with the first team or Barca Atletic but it seems he will go with the senior squad. According to Diario AS, Barcelona have made the decision following a “recommendation from LaLiga” which they plan on accepting in a bid “not to strain relations.” Barcelona and La Liga became embroiled in a bit of a spat last season, due to the registrations of Dani Olmo and Pau Victor, and it seems the Catalans don’t want a repeat. Roony has already missed Barcelona’s opening game of the season and may have to sit out this weekend’s trip to Levante as well while the club try to reso...

Raphinha Spanish champions Barcelona opened their Liga campaign on Saturday with an island cruise as they played almost an hour against nine men on their way to a 3-0 victory in Mallorca. Barcelona's second-half stroll did not please coach Hansi Flick. "They're three important points, but I didn't like the match," he told broadcaster Movistar. "After going two goals up and following Mallorca's two red cards, I think the team only gave 50 percent and I didn't like that." "Playing at 50 or 60 per cent is not possible against nine players." Two of Barcelona's Ballon d'Or nominees combined to put the visitors ahead after seven minutes, Lamine Yamal crossing for Raphinha to head in.

Villa played the final 24 minutes plus stoppage time with 10 men after Ezri Konsa was dismissed but with Isak missing - as he tries to force a move to Liverpool - the Magpies were unable to find a winner. Anthony Elanga and Anthony Gordon wasted their best chances during a dominant first half. Debutant Marco Bizot made a fine save to deny new £55m winger Elanga inside three minutes before Gordon planted a free header over. The forward, playing centrally in place of Isak, also tested Bizot as the Magpies failed to make their superiority count.

Liverpool Liverpool kicked off the 2025-26 Premier League season in style by beating Bournemouth 4-2. While the Reds showed their quality in the final third, a few defensive concerns were raised. Hugo Ekitike certainly impressed during his first Premier League outing, producing a goal and an assist on his Anfield debut. After being two goals down, Bournemouth battled valiantly to get back into the game and a brace from Antoine Semenyo brought the game back to 2-2. With the game firmly in the balance, Liverpool threw the kitchen sink at Andoni Iraola’s side and goals from Federico Chiesa and Mohamed Salah wrapped up the game for the Reds. While there were certainly lots of positives to take from the game from a Liverpool perspective, Bournemouth did highlight some of their defensive vulne...
