Maddison left the camp almost immediately. Maguire and Grealish hung around, still shocked. In both cases, that sense of shock was shared by team-mates. Some visited Grealish in his bedroom, expressing disbelief. Rice said in a news conference he was “gutted” that Maddison and Grealish, “two of my best mates in the squad”, had been left out.

Beyond personal feelings, some players simply felt Grealish should have been included because of his quality and big-game experience. He had barely figured in the final weeks of the season at Manchester City, but he started both legs of a Champions League quarter-final against Real Madrid in April. If Pep Guardiola was willing to trust him in big games, why was he suddenly surplus to Southgate’s requirements? Was it personal? So…

Arsenal have made an offer for Barcelona winger Raphinha as the Catalans look for money to sign Nico Williams this summer, according to reports.

The Gunners have made just one signing so far this summer with David Raya arriving from Brentford on a permanent basis after spending last season on loan at the Emirates Stadium.

But their deal to sign Bologna centre-back Riccardo Calafiori is extremely close to being announced after .

And now transfer expert Fabrizio Romano claims he s now travelling to the United States in order to sign his contract and begin training with his team-mates.

Romano wrote in his Caught Offside column: Medical done for Riccardo Calafiori who’s set to travel to USA from London together with his agents. Calafiori will sign a fiv…

Former Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino is reportedly in talks over becoming the next USA manager, as he is the country s top target following the dismissal of Gregg Berhalter.

Pochettino has managed two big English clubs, in Tottenham and Chelsea, in the past five years. The latter was his last assignment as a manager, and while he guided them to a sixth-placed Premier League finish last term, after they finished 12th the season prior, he was dismissed.

He was linked with the Manchester United job for a while, before Erik ten Hag s stay was confirmed, and since the England job became vacant, links to that role have surfaced.

The USA job is also current unfilled, and according to reports, Pochettino is the top target to take over from former manager Berhalter…

Man Utd are reportedly in the final stages of negotiations with Paris Saint-Germain over a deal to sign Uruguay midfielder Manuel Ugarte.

Ugarte only joined PSG in 2023 but is available this summer, with extremely keen on signing him.

The Parisiens spent £51million to sign him from Portuguese giants Sporting and are only willing to sell if that figure is met.

They have been in talks with the Red Devils for several weeks now, , though a swap deal is unlikely to materialise.

Ugarte is not training with the PSG first team amidst uncertainty over his future at the club and he was unsurprisingly not included in their Ligue 1 opening fixture last Friday.

He did play 37 times across all competitions last season, starting 21 times in the French top fli…

Victor Osimhen has been stripped of the number nine shirt at Napoli after his move to Chelsea fell through on deadline day, according to reports.

The Nigeria international has been linked with a move to the Premier League over the past couple of years as clubs looked to sign a proven goalscorer.

Napoli president Aurelio De Laurentiis previously put a number of clubs off with his asking price of around €150m before dropping it slightly as it became clear that Osimhen wanted to leave.

His new contract has a release clause in there worth around £110m but Napoli s demands still seemed to cause a problem on deadline day despite a transfer seemingly on for most of the day.

Initially it seemed that Saudi Arabian side Al-Ahli had won the race after agreeing…

Former Tottenham midfielder Rafael van der Vaart insists new Man Utd signing Matthijs de Ligt has never been the same since leaving Ajax.

The Red Devils centre-back was handed his first start since joining in the summer from Bayern Munich in their 3-0 defeat to Liverpool before the international break.

Prior to the humiliating home defeat to Arne Slot s men, De Ligt had come off the bench in Premier League matches against Fulham and Brighton.

But his form against Liverpool and two international fixtures for the Netherlands over the last week won t have helped his chances of getting into Erik ten Hag s starting XI.

of the Man Utd defender last week when De Ligt was at fault for both the goals his country conceded in a 5-2 win over Bosnia and Herzegovina.…

Former Chelsea boss Graham Potter would be interested in taking over from Sean Dyche if the Everton job became available, according to reports.

The Toffees registered their first Premier League point of the season . Iliman Ndiaye netted the opener as Everton went in front for a third successive match and were in position for a first win on the road in 2024.

But once again the Toffees failed to hammer home their advantage as Jesper Lindstrom passed up big chances and saves from Mads Hermansen kept Leicester in the contest.

It was the same old story for in the second period, finally succumbing to Leicester’s pressure as Stephy Mavididi struck the equaliser as both sides wait for their first win.

The Toffees – who had led 2-0 only to be beaten 3-2 in e…
