Arsenal eyeing Howedes move

Arsenal are ready to make a move for Germany’s World Cup winning defender Benedikt Howedes, .

The Schalke centre-back played in all seven games in Joachim Low’s side’s road to glory in the summer while he has made fifteen appearances in all competitions for his club so far this season.

Arsene Wenger is desperate to bring in more defensive players when the transfer window reopens, though he is set to face competition from Manchester United, who have their own problems at the back.

Howedes has spent his entire career so far with Schalke, making almost two hundred and fifty appearances for their first team, scoring nineteen goals, and he was handed the club’s captaincy in 2011.

His current deal is not set to expire until the end of the 2016/17 c…

Italy better placed as underdogs ahead of Euro´s – Motta

With expectations tempered ahead of Euro 2016, Italy midfielder Thiago Motta has admitted it will be better for the Azzurri to approach the tournament with the pressure decreased.

Italy failed to get out of the group stages at the 2014 World Cup, and have since seen a gradual decline in expectations placed on the team.

But for Motta, who plays his club football with one of Europe s most expectant sides in Paris Saint-Germain, he believes the atmosphere will benefit their experience.

It s better that way. Whatever we achieve will mean more, it will be fine, the 33-year-old told Gazzetta dello Sport.

PSG is the opposite, we have high expectations. So it s considered a bad season if you win four trophies out of five and then exit in the quarter-finals of t…

I couldn´t stay to be a sub – Morata joined Chelsea despite Zidane wishes

Alvaro Morata joined Chelsea against the wishes of Zinedine Zidane as he did not want to spend another season among the Real Madrid substitutes.

The Spain international signed for the Premier League champions in July for a reported club-record fee of £58million, despite having only returned to Madrid the year before.

Morata made 43 appearances in all competitions last season but only 19 of those came as a starter, with Karim Benzema preferred as first choice.

The 24-year-old says his desire to grow up and force his way into the Spain starting line-up for next year s World Cup prompted his decision to turn his back on Madrid for the second time in his career.

‘I’ve only scored and assisted with my head for Chelsea, so I hope to use my feet as well soo…

Pele: Ronaldo unlikely to end wait for international glory

Pele thinks Cristiano Ronaldo is unlikely to lead Portugal to glory at Euro 2016 due to the strength of the other nations in the competition.

The three-time World Cup winner has been in Paris for a promotional event with Diego Maradona ahead of the tournament.

Pele was asked for his views on why Ronaldo and his club rival Lionel Messi are yet to taste international glory and he insisted it was not the fault of either player.

But he feels Portugal captain Ronaldo, 31, will not end his wait for an international honour at the Euros, with Germany his tip to win the event.

Pele told the Times of India: Just the other day Cristiano took the last penalty to win the Champions League for Real Madrid, but there are so many national teams stronger than Portugal in …

Benitez: I have friends at both Liverpool and City

Rafael Benitez had words of encouragement for both Manchester City and Newcastle United fans, insisting he is aiming to stop Liverpool while offering a positive update on his future. 

Much has been made of Benitez s potentially decisive role in the Premier League title race, with the Newcastle manager welcoming former club Liverpool to St James Park in the penultimate game of the season. 

Newcastle beat City on Tyneside in January, boosting the Reds hopes at the time, but Benitez insists he has a good relationship with both clubs and will not be handing out any favours. 

Liverpool are a point behind City, who play Leicester City on Monday. 

I think I have been very clear, he told a pre-match news conference. I am a professional and we have to do o…

AFC Champions League Review: Lee´s landmark has Jeonbuk up and running

Veteran Lee Dong-gook became the all-time leading goalscorer in the AFC Champions League as Jeonbuk Motors started their 2019 campaign with a convincing 3-1 over Beijing Guoan on Wednesday.

Lee, 39, netted his 37th career goal in the continental competition three minutes into the second half of the Group G encounter when he stabbed home Han Kyo-won s cross from six yards.

That goal restored Jeonbuk s lead after Han s opener was cancelled out before the break by Zhang Xizhe, and Lee then floated in a cross for Kim Shin-wook to head home Jeonbuk s third at the Jeonju World Cup Stadium.

Urawa Reds – champions in 2017 – also started with three points in the same group, the Japanese side running out 3-0 winners against Buriram United.
