Things between Neymar and Paris Saint-Germain are not as bad as they used to be, according to the French L Equipe, as relayed by , with sources inside the club claiming there is “no longer a war”. That said, there is perhaps some possibility that the Brazilian will not be leaving Parc des Princes this season after all.

In addition to PSG’s large fee demand of 100 million euros for the 27-year-old forward, an amount neither Barcelona nor Real Madrid can so easily afford at the moment, the most recent report of Neymar expecting to earn 35 million euros per year has emerged as a convenient exit door for both of the Spanish clubs.

It has been reported that PSG’ manager Thomas Tuchel will not be including Neymar in any of the club’s matches before the transfer situ…

Loris Karius hopes Liverpool agree to cancel his contract when his loan spell with Besiktas expires at the end of the season, according to Turkish outlet Fotospor.

The German arrived to Anfield from Mainz 05 in 2016 for around €5 million, which seemed a bargain price for a goalkeeper voted second-best in the Bundesliga the previous season, behind Bayern Munich s Manuel Neuer. He was given a number of chances to make the spot between the posts his own, ahead of Simon Mignolet, and just as it started looking as if would finally make it, the controversial 2018 Champions League final in Kiev came and his two horrible mistakes practically put the trophy into the hands of Real Madrid.

He never showed much hope of recovering from the trauma during the following pre-season an…

Bruno Fernandes hit out at the decision to appoint an Argentinian referee to Portugal s World Cup quarter-final against Morocco following their defeat, claiming: They have clearly tilted the field against us .

Portugal were eliminated at the quarter-final stage of the tournament for the first time as Youssef En-Nesyri headed home the only goal of the game in the first half.

However, the performance of referee Facundo Tello was criticised by Portugal s players after the game, in which Fernandes was denied a penalty when he went down under a challenge from Achraf Hakimi.

Defender Pepe described Tello s appointment as unacceptable after Portugal s loss, and Fernandes concurred.

I don t know if they are going to give the cup to Argentina. I m going to say wh…

Jurgen Klopp didn t understand Gareth Southgate s decision to leave Trent Alexander-Arnold out of his England squad, claiming the Liverpool right-back s form cannot be the reason .

Alexander-Arnold was a surprise omission from Southgate s group for last month s World Cup qualifiers against San Marino, Albania and Poland.

The 22-year-old has been a Liverpool regular in recent seasons but has earned only 12 England caps to date.

Kieran Trippier was preferred at wing-back at the 2018 World Cup, with Kyle Walker playing inside in a three-man defence.

The Manchester City defender and Reece James shared starting duties in March, while Trippier was also in the squad, with right-back a clear position of strength for the Three Lions.

As well as Alexander-A…

Desperate to claim a much-needed boost this weekend, Manchester United will welcome Brighton to Old Trafford on Saturday afternoon.

Manchester United

Starting with the hosts, heading into September’s international break with a real collapse away at historic rivals Arsenal, Manchester United are seeking a much-needed response this weekend. Eventually getting hit with a 3-1 loss in north London last time out, it is fair to say that Erik ten Hag’s side have struggled to find much stability since opening up the 2023/24 campaign. Seeking some recent stability since returning from the summer interval, the former Ajax boss will have a growing headache over his side’s extended defensive issues. Putting in a toothless display on August …

Market: Edgeworth Eagles win

Odds: 2/5 @

Two sides firmly battling it out at opposite ends of the table, Edgeworth will welcome Adamstown to the Jack McLaughian Oval on Wednesday morning.

Starting with the hosts, while Edgeworth might have eventually fallen short last season as they missed out on the chance to claim a play-off ticket, the Eagles have come roaring back in a sensational fashion this time around. Last seen over the weekend putting in another rampant performance as they stormed their way to a 4-0 victory against Newcastle Olympic, Peter McGuinness’ men are in the midst of a remarkable purple patch. Although they might have opened up the 2024 campaign with a real stutter, Edgeworth have now won all of their previous six consecutive appearances and …

Diego Simeone compared Luis Suarez to Atletico Madrid legend Fernando Torres as he backed the striker to keep performing when called on.

Suarez has been linked with a move away from Atletico at the end of the season, when his contract expires.

British press reports have suggested he could join up with former Liverpool team-mate Steven Gerrard, now manager of Aston Villa, while Spanish sports daily Marca on Saturday pointed to interest from the likes of Ajax, Inter and Sevilla.

Suarez s goals were crucial to Atletico winning LaLiga last season, following his shock move from Barcelona, but his output has decreased in 2021-22, with the Uruguayan scoring 11 goals in 34 appearances across all competitions.

Only 23 of those appearances have been as a starter, w…

Odds: 19/20 @

Smelling the chance to lay down another Bundesliga marker on Friday night, Stuttgart will welcome Darmstadt to the MHPArena.

Starting with the hosts, while Stuttgart might have found themselves at the heart of a major relegation scrap last season, Die Roten have come roaring back in some style since opening the 2023/24 campaign. Marking their return from September’s international break away at Mainz last weekend as they landed a 3-1 victory away at Mainz, it appears that the mood in Sebastian Hoeneb’s camp is at a red-hot high. Heading into the fortnight interval earlier in the month with another stellar performance as they claimed a 5-0 romp against Freiburg, the former Hoffenheim boss has seen his side…

Angel Romero scored twice as Paraguay produced a second-half comeback to claim a 3-1 win over a depleted 10-man Bolivia in their opening game at the Copa America.

La Albirroja were favoured to see off Bolivia, who were without three players – including captain and talisman Marcelo Martins after testing positive for coronavirus.

Bolivia, who have only progressed beyond the Copa America group stage once since finishing runners-up in 1997, took a shock early lead from Erwin Saavedra s 10th-minute penalty on Monday.

Paraguay piled on the pressure for no reward in the first half, before Bolivia were reduced to 10 men on the stroke of half-time following Jaume Cuellar s second booking in Goiania, Goias.

The weight of pressure told in the second half as Alejan…
