Laurent Blanc has admitted striker Edinson Cavani is unhappy with his role in the Paris Saint-Germain first-team system.

Cavani, who signed for a reported fee of €64.5million from Napoli in 2013, has regularly been deployed in a wide position with the French champions, with Zlatan Ibrahimovic accommodated in a central role.

The Uruguay international has scored 13 goals in 24 appearances this season but a report in L Equipe on Tuesday claimed he has finally grown tired of his role under Blanc and will push for a transfer at the end of the season.

Blanc concedes his formation does not play to Cavani s strengths but has praised him for his goal return, telling a media conference: Our system does not allow Cavani to show his qualities at 100 per cent, and yet his s…

Pep Guardiola has not even arrived at Manchester City yet but Joe Hart already has some advice for the club s incoming Spanish manager.

Hart believes it would be wrong for Guardiola to execute a complete turnover of the current City squad, which sits in fourth position in the Premier League table.

The City mainstay goalkeeper believes at the very least, Guardiola needs to ensure he retains himself, captain Vincent Kompany and Argentina full-back Pablo Zabaleta.

I was here first, then Vinny came charging through the door and about two weeks later Zaba came, he said on Sky Sports.

I was told they were both central midfielders! I’ve seen Zaba age, that’s how long we’ve been together.

But it’s good that we’ve been together this long and I…

Real Madrid head coach Carlo Ancelotti has declared his squad as better than last year , and suggested there will be no more arrivals at the Santiago Bernabeu in this transfer window.

Los Blancos won LaLiga and the Champions League in 2021-22, and have since added Antonio Rudiger from Chelsea and Aurelien Tchouameni from Monaco.

However, questions have been asked about a perceived lack of attacking options, with Luka Jovic having left for Fiorentina and doubts about the immediate future of Marco Asensio.

Madrid faced El Clasico rivals Barcelona on Saturday as part of their pre-season preparations in Las Vegas, losing 1-0 to a stunning Raphinha strike.

As well as the former Leeds United man, Barca have signed Robert Lewandowski from Bayern Munich to c…

Four games without a win, AC Milan find themselves in a seemingly hopeless position.

History teaches us, coach is the one who pays the price for the underachievement of his team, but is Sinisa Mihajlovic entirely to be blamed to AC Milan’s another unsuccessful spell in the Serie A?

Milan’s malware

Rossoneri have struggled for quite some time and their woes go beyond the current season.

Having been crowned the Italian champions in 2010-11, AC Milan have gone down the slide to runners-up next season and third-placed Serie A team in 2012-13 before experiencing an inexplicable fall to eight and tenth place in two successive seasons.

A scratch on the surface would reveal problems deeply…

While might have managed to drag themselves to a much-needed Champions League finish last season, it doesn t cover what was a downbeat campaign for the Italian giants.

Eventually finishing the 2021/22 campaign sat 16 points adrift of winners AC Milan, the Old Lady will have plenty of pressure on their shoulders when they open their season against Sassuolo on August 15th.

Welcoming back to Italy on a free transfer after the World Cup-winner saw his deal at Manchester United expire earlier in the month, Massimiliano Allegri will be desperate for his side to get off to a flying start.

Watching both Milano giants burst back into life over the past 24 months and facing another real challenge this season, can Juventus mount a serious title charge this time around?

Sadio Mane scored a superb double and Virgil van Dijk also grabbed two goals as Liverpool ended a recent blip and retained top spot in the Premier League with an emphatic 5-0 win over Watford.

A run of three draws in four league matches had seen Liverpool s advantage over Manchester City trimmed to a point heading into Wednesday s fixtures. 

However, Liverpool never looked like a team in danger of cracking under the pressure as Mane s brilliant brace  highlighted by a stunning backheeled finish for his second put them in command.

Divock Origi put the result beyond doubt in the second half and a pair of late headers from Van Dijk completed the rout.

The report has claimed that Barcelona need to sell some of their players for financial problems, and that Premier League giants United are keen on securing the services of Christensen.

The defender has made 17 starts and one substitute appearance in La Liga for Barcelona so far this season, scoring one goal and provi…

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta is very confident of Bukayo Saka signing a new contract with the Gunners.

England international Saka has established himself as a core member of the Arsenal side, while also making his impact in Gareth Southgate s national set-up.

Having last signed a long-term deal in 2020, Saka s situation at Arsenal was starting to cause concerns amongst the fanbase, with it widely reported that his terms were set to expire in 2024.

That would mean the Gunners could find themselves in a vulnerable position at the end of the 2022-23 season, as Saka would have just one year before becoming a free agent, and would be able to discuss a pre-contractual agreement with clubs outside of England in January 2024.

Naturally, Arsenal are pushing to…

Harry Wilson is driving Wales’ bid for Euro 2024 success after emerging from the shadow of Gareth Bale, says manager Rob Page.

Wilson kept Wales’ hopes of automatic qualification alive by scoring twice in last month’s stunning 2-1 win over World Cup semi-finalists Croatia, 10 years to the day since becoming his country’s youngest-ever male player at the age of 16 years and 207 days.

Former captain Bale scored a record 41 goals for Wales before retiring from football in January.

“H has been around for a long time,” Page said ahead of Wales’ final Euro 2024 qualifiers against Armenia and Turkey that will determine whether they can secure a top-two spot in Group D and avoid the play-offs in March.

“Because of the players we had available befo…
