Midfielder set to have medical in London on ThursdayChloe Kelly hits out at lack of future at Manchester CityBarcelona have accepted a €550,000 (£460,000) bid from Chelsea for Keira Walsh and the England midfielder is expected to undergo a medical in London on Thursday. The two clubs reached an agreement overnight, inside the final 24 hours of the window, which closes at 11pm on Thursday.The 27-year-old would be eligible to be registered for Chelsea’s Champions League squad for the knockout stages and therefore could theoretically be set for a reunion against her former side if they were to meet in the competition this season. Walsh has helped Barcelona win back-to-back Champions League titles in the past two seasons. Continue reading...

Manchester United transfer news as Mathys Tel dropped a hint on his future after his side's Champions League match against Slovan Bratislava amid links to a Premier League move

It may have been a tricky Champions League campaign for Pep Guardiola’s side so far, but they live to fight another dayThe best moment of this game came 13 minutes from time, and will almost certainly be forgotten to history. Savinho brings down John Stones’s long ball with his chest and lashes the ball home, and of course this is the part that matters: Manchester City 3-1 up and safe at last. There is no Fifa Best award for “Greatest Chest Control of the Year”. But there should be.It was, quite simply, one of the great chest touches. The perfect spot on the breastbone: not too much rib, not too much nipple. Just the right amount of give in the torso to send it forwards, not up or down: the ball not so much cushioned as sprung. Because now the ball is sitting up beautifully, and Simon Mignolet can probably do better at his near post but that’s hardly the first time we’ve said that. Continue reading...

Aston Villa 4-2 Celtic: Morgan Rogers grabbed a hat-trick in match of huge drama that sent Villa straight through

Liverpool lost their 100% record in the Champions League but you suspect Arne Slot will be over the disappointment before the team’s flight lands back on Merseyside. PSV Eindhoven secured the victory they needed to guarantee a playoff place with a rousing comeback against a youthful Liverpool side, who had debutant Amara Nallo sent off four minutes after his introduction.Nallo’s misfortune – the 18-year-old defender looked distraught after receiving a straight red for denying Johan Bakayoko a clear goalscoring opportunity – tainted an encouraging display from Liverpool’s youngsters. But Slot’s side retained top spot in the table regardless of defeat. And, as the Liverpool head coach admitted beforehand, the final placing hardly matters when his team are guaranteed to face the 15th, 16th, 17th or 18th placed side in the last 16.

What was it Mikel Arteta had said? “We’ve got some player there”. With four minutes left in Arsenal’s last Champions League match of a highly successful group stage, Ethan Nwaneri began his walk around the pitch at Montilivi. As he did so, they waited for him with open arms on the bench and, in the small main stand, Arsenal supporters and staff stood and applauded. He was in no hurry; he had given everything, after all, and anyway he was happy to take it all in.Ultimately, this had been a comfortable enough night for Arsenal, and it had always been likely to be; they had earned that right and a 2-1 win over Girona sent them directly to the last 16, as expected. What made it more memorable was that the 17-year-old from Enfield, already the youngest player in Premier League history, marked his first start in this competition with a superb performance and the wonderful goal that gave them the win here. If Arsenal are to make the final this season, it would only be the second ever, alon...

The anonymous first-person narrator – a player at the club – is asked to help persuade the exceptional French-Rwandan striker, teenager Samson Kabarebe, to sign for them. Our narrator’s willingness to take up the challenge is characteristic. He’s L’Oracolo’s protege, the team’s “teacher’s pet”: a dutiful, family-oriented, working-class 19-year-old who grew up close to the club’s grounds.
