Ibrahimovic keeps fans guessing as speculations over his future continues
The Swedish superstar continued to keep the Manchester United fans waiting after he appeared at a much anticipated advertising event in Paris. F ar from the big reveal that some thought it might be, Zlatan Ibrahimovic refused to give little more than a few hints on this future when he answered journalists’ questions in Paris on Tuesday. The striker was appearing at a launch event for A to Z sportswear in the French capital, and with the event being streamed live on Facebook, Ibrahimovic failed to deliver the desired answer with regard to the largest uncertainty; that of his next club. Instead, when brought onto the topic of Manchester United, with a reunion with Jose Mourinho seen as a possibility, the 34-year-old remained as coy as ever. “There is no … [Read more...]
Pedro admits he misses boyhood club Barcelona but doesn’t regret Chelsea move
Pedro admits he misses Barcelona but is adamant he does not regret joining Chelsea despite a "very strange" first season. Chelsea winger Pedro insists he has no regrets over moving to Stamford Bridge, though he admits he does miss Barcelona. The Spain international was signed by Jose Mourinho in August last year and made an explosive start to life in the Premier League, scoring on his debut in a 3-2 win over West Brom. The 28-year-old endured a largely inconsistent campaign, however, hitting seven league goals in 29 games as Chelsea - having replaced Mourinho with Guus Hiddink following a dreadful first half of the season - missed out on Europe and failed to win a trophy. Pedro admits he misses life at boyhood club Barca and concedes the past … [Read more...]

A HOST of Premier League clubs are reportedly keeping tabs on Marseille winger Georges-Kevin N'Koudou.

Ex Chelsea coach named new Aston Villa boss
Aston Villa have confirmed the appointment of Roberto Di Matteo as the club's new manager. The former Chelsea boss replaces Remi Garde, who was sacked in March ahead of Villa's relegation from the Barclays Premier League. Di Matteo, who guided Chelsea to Champions League glory in 2012, makes his return to management a year after leaving German side Schalke. The 45-year-old has always been the number one choice for prospective new owner Dr Tony Xia. David Moyes and Nigel Pearson, who was appointed Derby manager on Thursday, were also linked to the job at Villa Park but it is thought Di Matteo's achievements at Chelsea were most appealing to Xia as he looks to build Villa's profile in the Far East. Di Matteo, who still has a house near Birmingham in … [Read more...]
Barcelona bid for Manchester United’s Daley Blind
Barcelona are reportedly interested in a £14million transfer move for Manchester United defender Daley Blind. The versatile is rumoured to be one of the first names who could be axed from the club’s first-team under new manager Jose Mourinho, which has alerted Barca. Blind has had two decent seasons at Old Trafford, failing to hold down a regular position due to his versatility. However, this is seen as an advantage to Barcelona, who are admirers of his defensive strength combined with intelligence and ability on the ball. The Catalan giants could need men at the back, with neither Thomas Vermaelen nor Jeremy Mathieu impressing on a consistent basis, and could land Blind for around £14m. Mourinho would favour a more traditional centre half in his back … [Read more...]
