Bayern Munich are reportedly hoping to exploit a transfer precedent set by Chelsea with loanee Nicolas Jackson.

Gianluigi Donnarumma says moving to Manchester City was his "only option" despite being linked with Manchester United this summer.

Ruben Amorim is under mounting pressure to keep his job at Manchester United.

Arsenal's out-of-favour forwards Gabriel Martinelli and Leandro Trossard sent a timely reminder to manager Mikel Arteta on Tuesday night, coming off the bench against Athletic Club to ensure the Gunners started their Champions League campaign with a hard-fought 2-0 win.

Mykhailo Mudryk is facing an uncertain future after being suspended from all forms of football following a positive drugs result.

Arne Slot has jumped to the defence of Florian Wirtz after his slow start at Liverpool, while hitting out at those criticising the club's lavish spending.
