Chelsea transfer ban and fine

Chelsea handed a Premier League record fine of £10.75 million and a one-year ban from signing first-team men's players suspended, plus restrictions on their academy signings for the next nine months because of their rule breaches in transfer dealings between 2011 and 2018.

AFCON final result reversal

The CAF appeal board who made this decision... Senegal who had won in that dramatic game... stripped now of their title and Morocco become the champions.

Chelsea Champions League exit

This equals their [Chelsea's] heaviest ever aggregate defeat in Europe. 8-2 on aggregate.

Pep Guardiola future

Is it the last time we'll see Pep's Man City in the Champions League? Possibly. It's hard to say. Is this the second consecutive season in a row where Man City haven't got to the quarterfinals?

James Richardson

AFCON controversy

Bernardo Silva gets sent off for the first time in his career at possibly the worst time in the game and from that point onwards it just felt like Madrid were going to cruise to it.

Chelsea transfer investigation

The Premier League's financial modeling suggests that even if these payments were added to Chelsea's books in the applicable years, they would not have failed financial controls.

Liam Toomey

Arsenal player form

He [Eze] is one of the purest strikers of a football I can remember seeing, really. He just scores spectacular goals and comes to life in March.

Charlie Eckersher

Premier League player form

I think Haaland's form's completely dropped off in 2026, whereas Thiago's still been consistently banging in the goals. So what a remarkable story.
