Como 1907 ‘interested’ in Trevoh Chalobah — report

Fabrizio Romano reports that Serie A darlings Como 1907 are “interested” in Trevoh Chalobah, evidently looking to improve their squad ahead of their inaugural Champions League campaign next season. Of course, “interest” alone means very little in the world of transfers, especially with Romano adding that there is a “big gap in valuation at this […]

2026 World Cup, Day 10: Netherlands vs. Sweden; Germany vs. Côte d’Ivoire; Ecuador vs. Curaçao; Tunisia vs. Japan

Friday’s USA vs. Australia match in Seattle was one of the most spectacular sporting events I’ve ever had the privilege to attend. From the hours-long buildup along the waterfront and all through the downtown and Belltown areas — in absolutely perfect weather — to the national anthems, to the epic flyover, to the US putting […]

Official: West Bromwich Albion sign Jimmy-Jay Morgan from Chelsea

Chelsea youngster Jimmy-Jay Morgan has completed a move to West Bromwich Albion today, signing a four-year contract with the Championship outfit. West Brom are reportedly paying £4m to make the transfer happen, which includes a “substantial” sell-on clause as well. Morgan rejoined Chelsea in 2023 after spending six years in the Southampton academy. The young […]

Premier League 2026-27 fixtures: West London Derby, away on opening day!

Amid a serious case of World Cup fever (and following yet another disappointing Chelsea season), I completely forgot that the fixtures for the new Premier League season would get announced this morning. But if there’s ever a time to be hopeful, it’s the summer, so let’s see what awaits Xabi Alonso (and how far down […]

England beat Croatia; Pedro Neto sets up goal in Portugal draw

England’s World Cup is off to a promising start: their second-half performance against a quality Croatia side an especially encouraging display in what was eventually a 4-2 win. Both teams found the back of the net twice in the first 45, but England needed a bit of luck for their goals (especially after Harry Kane […]

Mbappé & Haaland & Messi, oh my!

Day six belonged to the stars. The biggest stars. The brightest stars, on the greatest stage. Kylian Mbappé. Erling Haaland. Lionel Messi. Between them, seven goals combined. Wins for France, Norway, and Argentina. Fans losing their minds; opponents staring blankly into the middle distance, forlorn in their inevitable defeat. Mbappé got the part started in […]

Nicolas Jackson denied by post, flag as France overcome Senegal, 3-1

Billed as one of the biggest games of the group stage, France and Senegal certainly tried their best to live up to that expectation as they matched wits in the afternoon sunshine of East Rutherford, NJ, with the favorites holding form and emerging as 3-1 winners in the end. But that scoreline alone hardly does […]

Trevoh Chalobah called up to England as injury replacement

Trevoh Chalobah is going to the World Cup! Our reliable defender has gotten the call from Thomas Tuchel, just ahead of the emergency squad change deadline (24 hours before a team’s first game), after former Chelsea prospect Tino Livramento suffered a calf injury in training over the weekend. Chalobah’s now on his way to England’s […]

Not all heroes wear Cape Verdes

Monday belonged to the draws: 0-0, 1-1, 1-1, 2-2. At first glance, that may not look very appealing. Few things are more un-American than a draw (a tie, if you will). It’s like kissing your sister, as the oldtimers’ joke goes. And yet, we were entertained. Ironically, it was the one without any goals at […]

Official: Real Madrid sign Marc Cucurella from Chelsea

Despite a “positive first talk” between Marc Cucurella and new Chelsea manager Xabi Alonso, the former didn’t feel like staying in Stamford Bridge in a season where the Blues failed to fetch a spot in an European competition. The Spanish left-back joins Real Madrid, Alonso’s former club, in their first landmark signing post-re-signing José Mourinho. […]
