The Spanish shot-stopper, who claimed the Golden Glove thanks to keeping 13 clean sheets this term, could add more silverware to his collection should he also scoop this gong, which sees him up against all the other winners of the monthly divisional award. David won two of those last term – one back in August thanks to his incredible stop against Aston Villa, and then back in March when he managed to secure us a point at Manchester United in dramatic fashion, and supporters can vote for their favourite of that pair now to help him claim the prize. He…
As Calciomercato.com report, everything is going according to script. Vincenzo Italiano is about to renew his contract with Bologna at the end of a week of negotiations. Thus, what seemed to be the main option for the Milan bench has faded away. Igli Tare is working on several fronts and is now accelerating for what had always been his candidate for the Rossoneri bench, since the very first meeting with Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Gerry Cardinale at the end of February: Massimiliano Allegri. In the last few hours, after having explored the possible availability of Thiago Motta, Milan have intensified contacts…
AC Milan are interested in Manchester United star Alejandro Garnacho and have made an approach, while his former manager Erik ten Hag is keen to sign the player at Bayer Leverkusen, TEAMtalk understands. Ruben Amorim has deemed the 20-year-old winger surplus to requirements following off-field issues amid the Red Devils’ need to generate funds from player sales. Amorim reportedly ridiculed Garnacho in front of his teammates, allegedly saying, “You better pray that you can find a club to sign you,” on Saturday. Garnacho remains an exciting talent, though, and will not be short of opportunities this summer. Napoli showed concrete…
Tare, together with the rest of the management, will be tasked with building a team and a squad that will have to rebound after finishing eighth this season, meaning no European competitions for 2025-26. As Calciomercato.com report, the work to be done is huge, both incoming and outgoing. In attack, Tammy Abraham should go along with Noah Okafor and Samuel Chukwueze, while Lorenzo Colombo (returning from Empoli) will certainly leave too. Time waits for nobody and Milan cannot afford to waste any more. During the week, Tare and Moncada have planned an important meeting with agent Fali Ramadani for a…
The 26-year-old is believed to be one of the primary transfer targets for recruitment bosses this summer as they look to refresh Pep Guardiola’s playing squad and return it to its competitive best from the start of next season. The recently-concluded 2024/25 campaign saw Manchester City fail to return any major silverware for the first time since Guardiola’s debut season at the club in 2016/17, despite one last opportunity against Crystal Palace in the FA Cup Final. Defeat to Oliver Glasner’s side was thankfully followed by a third-placed finish in the Premier League to ensure a spot in next season’s…
As La Gazzetta dello Sport (seen below) reports, there are plenty of reasons why Allegri ticks the boxes of what Milan are looking for. He is Italian, he knows the league well, he has been at the club before and he is a winner with a desire for revenge. If he were to return to Milan 11 years after leaving, the foundation of his tactical blueprint would remain defensive solidity and counter-attacks. For Allegri, results count above all and the Milan fans think like him: the priority is to return to the top, there will be time for the show…
Los Angeles Lakers legend Kobe Bryant is fondly remembered as one of the greatest basketball players of all-time as he accomplished just about everything at the NBA level. Bryant captured five championships with the Lakers during his 20-year playing career along with numerous All-Star and All-NBA selections. Kobe is one of the most iconic players in league history and continues to hold plenty of influence and serves as a source of inspiration for countless people globally. For example, Dallas Wings rookie Paige Bueckers credited Bryant for helping her through her ACL rehab. When it comes to the GOAT debate, Bryant…
The Los Angeles Lakers heard a promising report from Shams Charania on The Pat McAfee Show yesterday. However, it came with a familiar twist that LeBron James has mastered at this point of his career. Charania continued to hold his ground in the belief that James is ‘likely’ to opt in to the player option on his current deal for the 2025-26 NBA season. However, the NBA insider added another nugget into the report for viewers of the ESPN show His option date is June 29th, so he still has about a month to figure out,” Charania said. “There’s going…
A top-10 player should warrant a maximum-level salary regardless of their age. As such, James has earned the right to exercise his $54M player option for the 2025-26 season, which he’s expected to do, per ESPN’s Shams Charania. That said, one wonders if James is hurting his chances at winning a fifth championship by not foregoing monetary rewards. If and when he opts into his contract, the Lakers will have committed nearly $200M in guaranteed salaries for the 2025-26 season. As a result, they will have only the taxpayer midlevel exception (projected at $5.7M) to sign a free agent. Their…
The first big moves of the summer window are nearing completion as Manchester United and Liverpool act fast to beat rivals to key targets. Matheus Cunha is set to undergo a medical with United after the club agreed to Wolves’ demands over his £62.5m release clause, but his arrival could see captain Bruno Fernandes leave as Saudi Pro League side Al-Hilal have offered him a deal and given the midfielder 72 hours to make a decision. Meanwhile, Liverpool have submitted their first bid, reportedly worth €100million (£85m) plus add-ons, for Florian Wirtz. The Reds have joined the race for Hugo…
