Official: Manchester United sign Andrey Santos from Chelsea

Andrey Santos has completed his £50m move to Manchester United, which was agreed last week. The 22-year-old midfielder has signed a five-year contract at Old Trafford. There’s been a rather visceral reaction to this transfer, but at the end of the day, Santos was third-choice in midfield at best, behind both Moisés Caicedo and Enzo […]

England, Argentina both advance to the 2026 World Cup semifinals

The final four of the 2026 World Cup is set, and it’s a rather stacked final four that includes the two finalists from the last Euros and the two finalists from the last World Cup. Despite all the shocks and surprises and drama of this World Cup, the four semifinalists are just about the four […]

2026 World Cup, quarterfinals: England vs. Norway; Argentina vs. Switzerland

Two massive games on tap today at the World Cup, with the defending champions and the ever-hopeful Three Lions both in action. The first two quarterfinals were lacking a bit in overall entertainment: France were never threatened by Morocco in that Mbappé-inspired 2-0 win while Spain are like a relentless machine at this point, slowly […]

Official: KV Kortrijk sign Harrison Murray-Campbell on loan from Chelsea

Preparations for the upcoming season are starting to get under way all across Europe, which means that we need to start getting a move on with a whole bunch of transfer and loan business. Here’s one complete from yesterday, with many more to go for players waiting to resolve their futures. The immediate future for […]

2026 World Cup, quarterfinals: Spain vs. Belgium

I was very much hoping that this game would be Spain vs. USA, in which case I would’ve made every effort to attend. Alas, it was not meant to be. The USMNT were a massive disappointment in the Round of 16, losing to a Belgium side that had struggled to impress consistently. They needed a […]

PICTURES: First day of 2026-27 preseason

The boys are back in town — or at least those boys who were not at the World Cup (or those still at the World Cup, obviously) — and we’ve also got the new gaffer taking charge of his first official training as Chelsea boss. Though it may be a bit hard to spot him: […]

2026 World Cup, quarterfinals: France vs. Morocco

After a well deserved day off, the most dramatic World Cup in recent memory returns with some quarterfinal action today, starting with France against the Champions (administrative) of Africa. France have rolled through the competition without too much trouble, certainly after the first-half of their first game against Senegal, winning all five of their games […]

Official: Geovany Quenda completes Chelsea move from Sporting CP

Geovany Quenda has arrived at Chelsea, nearly 16 months after the agreement to sign him was made official with Sporting CP. Per the terms of that agreement, Quenda spent all of last season with Sporting still, before making the move to England. That move is now officially official, with the 19-year-old announced by Chelsea earlier […]

Manchester United, Chelsea agree £50m Andrey Santos transfer — report

Andrey Santos is set to join Manchester United from Chelsea, after the two teams have reportedly agreed a transfer worth £50m today — meeting Chelsea’s previous reported asking price. According to The Athletic, £48m of that is payable up front, with a further £2m to paid after “easily achievable bonuses” are met. Chelsea are also […]

Sporting CP, Chelsea agree Jesse Derry loan — report

Academy youngster Jesse Derry (who joined our setup from Crystal Palace last summer) made a pretty good impression in his occasional first-team appearances last season, showing that he’s certainly ready for much more than what youth football — or just cameos off the bench at senior level, for that matter — can offer him. Along […]

Enzo Fernández scores winning goal in historic Argentina comeback against Egypt

The 2026 World Cup continues to serve up entertainment in spades — unless you’re a USMNT fan of course — as it somehow keeps topping itself with historic instant classics. Just when you thought it couldn’t get much better than Argentina’s 3-2 win over heroic Cape Verde, or England’s 3-2 win over Mexico at the […]

2026 World Cup, Round of 16: Argentina vs. Egypt; Switzerland vs. Colombia

It was a sad end to the US’s run at the World Cup, beaten rather embarrassingly by a shadow of a Belgium side, especially after all the drama about Folarin Balogun’s red card. Turns out, that hardly mattered; if anything, it gave the Belgium team extra motivation and put extra pressure on the USMNT. And […]

Official: Everton sign Tyrique George from Chelsea

Tyrique George’s transfer to Everton has been made official today, with the 20-year-old joining on a four-year contract good through 2030. Everton are reportedly paying £24m, though that’s inclusive of the potential £6m in add-ons and bonuses, unlike initially reported (i.e. the fee was initially reported at £24+6m, but it’s instead £18+6m). Still a decent […]

2026 World Cup, Round of 16: Portugal vs. Spain; USA vs. Belgium

It’s the penultimate day of the Round of 16, and it’s the penultimate day of 27 consecutive days of football at the 2026 World Cup. I have no idea what I’m even going to do with myself the day after tomorrow, but we’ll worry about that later. (And that will largely depend on how the […]

England survive the Azteca in instant World Cup classic

In terms of home-field advantage on the international stage, it doesn’t get much greater than Mexico at the Estadio Azteca in Mexico City. Not only is the support world class, the stadium’s sitting at over 7000 feet above sea level — more than twice as high as the highest point in all of England — […]
