             CESC FABREGAS URGES BARCINA TO KEEP GAVI AFTER OWN EXPERIENCES

Barcelona are constantly linked with new signings and big moves in the transfer market, which is part of the nature of the beast. Yet for the Blaugrana, a large part of their business moves have been focused on securing the futures of their younger talents. The clear outstanding matter on the agenda is Gavi. The youngster has supposedly been in negotiations over a new deal for some time, but with no deal being found, President Joan Laporta publicly criticised Gavi’s agent for not responding to their offer.


In a recent interview with Catalunya Radio, reported by Mundo Deportivo, Cesc Fabregas made his thoughts clear on the Andaluz. Fabregas said that Gavi has to stay at the club beyond this summer.

                         FABREGAS REACTS TO ARSENAL STARS’ PERFORMANCE    

Arsenal delivered a fine performance at Vicarage Road two weeks ago as they saw off Watford to keep themselves well in the mix to make the top four come May. The Gunners were at their free-flowing best at times and three well-taken goals from Martin Odegaard, Bukayo Saka, and Gabi Martinelli put the game beyond the Hornets early in the second half. Watford did, to their credit, keep going and did get a late goal through Mo Sissoko to set up a nervy finish.

However, the day was about Arsenal really, who showed their prowess and displayed some of the reasons why Mikel Arteta is so excited by his side. And watching on that day was former Arsenal midfielder, Cesc Fabregas. The Spaniard is a frequent watcher of the Gunners and he took to Twitter today to offer his take on both Saka and Odegaard, who he claims are the future of the club. (more…)

AS Monaco midfielder Aurelien Tchouameniremains a target for European champions Chelsea despite the close of the latest transfer window last month.

David Moyes Reveals The Players He Almost Signed For Manchester United

David Moyes’s reign at Manchester United is one he would surely not be interested in leaving in his memory judging by how everything went sideways for him at Old Trafford. The current West Ham United manager was appointed as the successor of Sir Alex Ferguson after the legendary manager called time on his management career back in 2013. Moyes seemed like the man for the job after his fine work at Goodison Park for Everton, but unfortunately, some things just do not end up well.

Ferguson retired as United manager with 13 Premier League titles and a Champions League title to his name after spending 26 years at the helm of the club and having him replaced was never going to be an easy task. The United board probably did not think of how tough it would be to replace such a legendary manager as they offered Moyes a massive six-year contract.
