Bukayo Saka has said there is another level to come from England ahead of their Group C fixture against Denmark in Frankfurt.

The Three Lions started their Euro 2024 campaign with a 1-0 win over Serbia last Sunday, courtesy of Jude Bellingham s fourth international goal.

But England supporters were left wanting more from their side at full-time, with Serbia controlling the game after the break and possibly unfortunate to not steal a point.

Saka, who is featuring in his third major tournament for his country, played a huge role in Bellingham s opener, crossing the ball onto the head of the Real Madrid star.

Alongside Phil Foden, Harry Kane and Bellingham, the Arsenal attacker is part of an exciting plethora of attacking options for Gareth Southgate at t…

Young Boys coach Raphael Wicky expects to face a fearsome Manchester City side on Tuesday, whether it includes Erling Haaland or not.

Haaland, City’s prolific Norwegian striker, is doubtful for the holders’ Champions League Group G clash against the Swiss outfit at the Etihad Stadium with an ankle injury.

The 23-year-old, who scored 52 goals in City’s treble-winning campaign last season, has already netted 13 times this season including two against Wicky’s team in Bern last month.

A failure to prove his fitness would enhance Young Boys’ chances of pulling off a shock win but Wicky is well aware there are plenty more dangermen in the City ranks.

“First of all, I never wish a player to have an injury,” said Wicky at his pre-match press confere…

Mateo Kovacic s brace helped Manchester City come from behind to beat Fulham 3-2 at the Etihad Stadium.

The former Chelsea midfielder struck either side of half-time, with Jeremy Doku also on target, to give Pep Guardiola s side their first win in three in the Premier League and keep the pressure on leaders Liverpool, who beat Crystal Palace earlier on Saturday.

City fell behind midway through the first half when Andreas Pereira volleyed in Raul Jimenez s back-heeled cross from close range, but Fulham passed up chances to add to their lead.

Kovacic s goals either side of half-time, and a clinching third from Doku ultimately made the visitors pay for their wastefulness, although substitute Rodrigo Muniz set up a nervy finish for the champions when he halved the de…

Thiago Motta was left frustrated with Juventus inability to make their dominance count after Razvan Marin s late equaliser snatched a 1-1 draw for Serie A strugglers Cagliari.

Dusan Vlahovic s early penalty gave Juve the lead but Marin s 88th-minute spot-kick cost the hosts two important points that would have moved them to within one of leaders Napoli.

Marin s late salvaging act was the first goal Juventus have conceded this season in the league, though their inability to build on the early strike was what head coach Motta bemoaned after Sunday s draw.

Already in the first half, after the goal, we were content to control the game. It s no good, Motta told DAZN.

We have to keep attacking. In the second half, we created chances but we didn t exploit them…

Luciano Spalletti lauded Italy s spirit but warned his side must learn from their mistakes when they host Israel in Monday s Nations League clash.

Italy are top of their group, one point ahead of France, who smashed Israel 4-1 on Thursday.

Spalletti s side were held to a 2-2 draw with Belgium on the same day, throwing away an early two-goal lead after Lorenzo Pellegrini was dismissed for striking out at Arthur Theate.

The Azzurri manager referenced that error as Spalleti urged his side to use the Belgium draw as a learning curve.

The team is working hard, sweating for the shirt, sacrificing themselves, the former Napoli head coach said at Sunday s press conference.

The problem we learned from the last game is that in football one incident can r…

Carlos Tevez could be set to take up his first head coaching role with Argentinian side Rosario Central, with the club s vice-president aiming to appoint the former forward next week.

Former Manchester United, Manchester City and Juventus forward Tevez announced his retirement last month at the age of 38, citing the death of his father as the reason why he turned down offers to continue playing.

Tevez won a remarkable 26 titles in his career and is among only four Argentine players to win both the CONMEBOL Libertadores Cup and the Champions League, lifting the biggest prize in European club football with United in 2008.

The former striker played his final game for boyhood club Boca Juniors in 2021, but could now be set to return to his homeland in a coaching ca…

Ivan Rakitic has completed a permanent transfer to Hajduk Split following the termination of his contract by mutual consent at Al-Shabab.

Rakitic, who made eight appearances for Vitor Pereira s side, leaves the club six months after joining from Sevilla in the January transfer window.

The 36-year-old scored on his debut against Damac FC, but would miss much of the season through injury as Al-Shabab finished eighth in the league.

Rakitic, who was born in Switzerland, joins the 15-time Croatian Football League champions on a year-long deal, with the option of a further year.

The former Barcelona midfielder arrives at the club with great pedigree, having made 106 appearances for Croatia over a 12-year international career.

Rakitic was part of Zl…

Brentford are interested in signing Jens Cajuste from Napoli in the summer transfer window, according to Fabrizio Romano. The well-known and well-respected Italian journalist has claimed that Premier League club Brentford are closing in on a deal to bring in midfielder Cajuste from Serie A outfit Napoli.

Romano wrote on : “Brentford are closing in on Jens Cajuste deal from Napoli, almost done.

“Napoli will bid again to sign Billy Gilmour from Brighton and then talks will also advance for Marco Brescianini.

“Loan move for Cajuste with €12m buy clause that could become mandatory.”

 Cajuste joined Napoli from Reims in the summer of 2023. The 24-year-old Sweden international central midfielder made 11 starts and 15 substitute appearances last seas…

Tottenham vice-captain Molly Bartrip believes a genuine rivalry with Arsenal has now developed in the Women’s Super League.

Spurs host Jonas Eidevall’s team at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Saturday fresh from a 3-3 draw at Arsenal on Wednesday in a Continental Tyres League Cup group fixture which ended with a penalty shoot-out that the hosts won 4-3.

The midweek clash was the 11th meeting between the clubs during the last four years and, while Tottenham remain winless, they have come a long way since a 10-0 FA Cup loss to Arsenal in 2017.

Steve Cherundolo says Los Angeles FC will force the issue when they take on the Colorado Rapids in a huge clash of Western Conference contenders on Saturday.

LAFC lead the way in the West with 37 points, though Real Salt Lake and the LA Galaxy are only behind them due to winning one game fewer.

LAFC s fine run of form continued with a 6-2 rout of the San Jose Earthquakes last weekend, with Mateusz Bogusz scoring twice as they raced into a 5-0 lead within just 48 minutes.

Cherundolo expects a different level of test from the Rapids, who are just six points off the summit after an encouraging start to Chris Armas tenure.

They re a difficult team to beat, they re playing very well, they re disciplined, compact and also very vertical, Cherundolo said of Colo…
