Southampton are going though a bad spell at the moment and need to put together a run of positive results. The Saints suffered a 3-2 defeat to Newcastle United away from home at St. James’ Park in the Premier League this past weekend following a 9-0 hammering at the hands of Manchester United at Old Trafford in the league.

In fact, Southampton have lost their last five Premier League matches. Ralph Hasenhuttl’s side are 12th in t…

Roy Hodgson says Wilfried Zaha could still leave Crystal Palace despite the Premier League s transfer window closing.

Before last week s deadline Palace rejected bids from Everton for Zaha, who was also said to be a target for Arsenal, with the winger handing in a transfer request in an attempt to force a move away from Selhurst Park.

Zaha scored 10 league goals for the Eagles last season after he signed a fresh five-year deal in August 2018.

Palace have reportedly set a value of £80million on the 26-year-old, and though a move to an English club failed to materialise in the most recent window, a transfer abroad could still go through.

Brazilian legend Zico was fired Tuesday as the coach of Greek champions Olympiakos as the team fell seven points behind arch-rivala Panathinaikos in the domestic table.

Olympiakos announced that the caretaker coach will be the team s Bosnian Serb scouter Bozidar Bandovic.

Zico, 56, joined Olympiakos last September signing a two-year contract after last coaching at CSKA Moscow but failed to lead the team to first place in the league.

After the weekend s scoreless draw at Kavala, Olympiakos finds itself in second place, seven points behind leader Panathinaikos.

The team continues to play in the Champions League with a last 16 round tie against French side Bordeaux coming up next month.

Zico has also coached the Japanese national team (2002-2006) wi…

Borussia Dortmund defender Lukasz Piszczek is to miss the first three months of the new season after undergoing hip surgery.

Piszczek has been a key component in Dortmund s success in recent years, with the right-back adding another dimension to Juergen Klopp s side with his pace and attacking industry.

The Poland international joined the Westfalenstadion outfit from Hertha Berlin in 2010 and has since gone on to win a host of honours, including two Bundesliga titles and one DFB-Pokal crown.
Piszczek featured in last season s UEFA Champions League final defeat to German rivals Bayern Munich, but will have to watch the start of the new campaign from the stands following his operation.

Wolves have strengthened their Portuguese contingent with the signing of midfielder Joao Moutinho from Monaco.

The Premier League new boys have paid a reported £5m for the Portugal international, who has agreed a two-year deal.

Moutinho made three appearances for Portugal at the World Cup, also starring in their Euro 2016 triumph, and has won 113 caps for his country in total.

The 31-year-old will likely line up with compatriot Ruben Neves in the Wolves midfield, with coach Nuno Espirito Santo having also signed goalkeeper Rui Patricio.

Andre Gomes and Denis Suarez have left Barcelona s tour of the United States to have their injuries assessed, the LaLiga champions have announced.

Both midfielders damaged their hamstrings and had to be replaced in an International Champions Cup game against Tottenham on Saturday. 

Gomes is reportedly at risk of being ruled out for up to three months, while Suarez s injury is believed to be less serious.

Barcelona are reportedly open to offers for Gomes, who has struggled to settle at Camp Nou and has spoken about his mental health struggles.

But injury could scupper a move away for the Portugal international, who joined Barcelona from Valencia in 2016 and has been linked to Premier League sides Arsenal and West Ham.

A late goal from defender Ron Vlaar earned Feyenoord a very hard-fought point against Heracles in Sunday s Eredivisie action.

The visit to Rotterdam was a special occasion for Heracles manager Gert-Jan Verbeek, who coached Feyenoord for seven months in the 2008-09 season.

Things looked good for Heracles when Everton struck the away side to a 0-1 lead in the 82nd minute.

But Feyenoord limited the damage in the 90th minute as Ron Vlaar netted the equaliser and once again confirms his importance in important moments.

Feyenoord remain in fourth place in the Eredivisie while Heracles continue to occupy the sixth position.

Simon Grayson has warned his Preston North End side they have no time to feel sorry for themselves as they travel to Chesterfield for Thursday s League One play-offs semi-final first leg.

Preston were second heading into the final day of the regular season and victory over lowly Colchester United would have secured an automatic return to the Championship after four years in the third tier.

However, the Lancashire club who have failed in nine previous play-off attempts fluffed their lines at the Weston Community Homes Stadium as Colchester secured a 1-0 win and another term in League One, while MK Dons leapfrogged Preston courtesy of a 5-1 battering of rock-bottom Yeovil Town.

Manager Grayson previously promoted from League One with Blackpool, Leeds United and…

Arsene Wenger has no plans to follow iconic manager Alex Ferguson into retirement, with the Arsenal boss in no hurry to relinquish his role.

Wenger, 65, has transformed Arsenal since swapping Japan s Nagoya for London in 1996, guiding the club to three Premier League titles, five FA Cups and five Community Shields.

Ferguson was 71 years old when he retired as Manchester United manager in 2012-13 after 26 years in charge, which included 13 league trophies, two UEFA Champions League crowns and five FA Cup titles.

And while Wenger opened up about what he might do when he eventually retires, the Frenchman is going nowhere fast.

Sometimes I think, What is he [Alex Ferguson] doing all day? But he looks very happy in his retirement, Wenger said ahead of Sunday …
