Man-of-the-match Eden Hazard called for Chelsea to wrap up the Premier League title as soon as possible after orchestrating a controlled 2-1 win at West Ham.

Hazard opened the scoring after 26 minutes, giving the latest demonstration of Chelsea s devastating counter-attacking prowess.

Diego Costa s 18th of the season arrived five minutes into the second period and Manuel Lanzini s stoppage-time consolation gave the illusion of a tight contest at London Stadium.

Antonio Conte s side are 10 points clear of Tottenham in second, while Manchester City will aim to cut that lead to a slightly less imposing eight by winning their game in hand at home to Stoke City on Wednesday.

We played a good game maybe not the best of the season but at least we created a coup…

Khouma Babacar s scrambled late winner earned Fiorentina a 2-1 victory over Inter to take control in the race for Serie A s final Champions League qualification place.

Substitute Babacar turned in a rebound after Samir Handanovic fumbled a shot by former Inter striker Mauro Zarate, with Borja Valero having headed in La Viola s leveller in a match that saw three red cards produced by referee Paolo Mazzoleni late on at Stadio Artemio Franchi.

After Alex Telles made an early goalline clearance, Inter, who ended the game with nine men, took an undeserved lead in the 26th minute through Brozovic, the Croatian neatly finishing off a precise pullback by Rodrigo Palacio.

Fiorentina s equaliser arrived on the hour mark, Valero marginally beating the offside trap to head i…

According to , Monaco have made contact with the agents of Thierry Henry about becoming their new coach. Reports from France suggest that the club from the principality has held talks with current boss Leonardo Jardim about terminating his contract.

Monaco have endured a terrible start to their Ligue One campaign, winning just one of their nine league matches so far and picking up just six points. The poor run has left the former champions in 18th position and Jardim’s future in doubt.

Jardim has done an excellent job

Firstly, Leonardo Jardim has done an excellent job at Monaco, with his biggest achievement winning the French top-flight title in 2017 against all odds.

However, he has always been fighting a losing battle in the principality, as whenever a play…

Manchester United goalkeeper David De Gea appears to have hinted he will be leaving Old Trafford at the end of the season.

The Spain number one has been heavily linked with a summer move to Real Madrid, and it is believed he has already agreed personal terms with the new La Liga champions.

It would appear as though Manchester United are preparing for life after De Gea, and now the player seems to have said goodbye to the Red Devils faithful.

“Thank you for your unconditional support!,” the 26-year-old wrote in his official Twitter account.

Real Madrid reportedly plan to make the Spaniard the number one signing of the summer transfer window, and they are determined to close the deal as soon as possible.

Los Blancos were close to signing De Gea…

Inter Milan stretched their lead at the top of Serie A to 15 points after they earned a 2-1 win over Genoa at San Siro.

After a slow opening spell, the home side soon clicked into gear and established a two-goal lead by the 38th minute through Kristjan Asllani’s strike and Alexis Sanchez’s penalty.

Inter looked like they would go on to cruise to victory but they were soon forced to increase their concentration levels when Johan Vasquez pulled a goal back for the away team nine minutes after half-time.

Vitinha then thought he levelled things up for Genoa but the offside flag saved Inter, who held on to stretch their winning run in Serie A to nine games.

This team!

Looking to secure back-to-back Premier League victories, Bournemouth will welcome Sheffield United to the Vitality on Saturday afternoon.

Starting with the hosts, managing to make a welcomed return to winning ways last weekend, Bournemouth will certainly be smelling a golden opportunity here. Eventually clinching a 2-0 victory away at relegation scrappers Burnley, Andoni Iraola’s men finally picked up a first Premier League victory of 2024. Although the Cherries might face a major uphill battle in their bid to book a top-half finish this season, they have largely impressed under the former Rayo Vallecano boss. Rightfully tipped as a standout contender on Saturday afternoon, fans around the Vitality will be c…

Arsene Wenger arrives at a key juncture in Arsenal s Premier League season on Saturday refusing to accept defeat in the title race.

Two sides seemingly with contrasting confidence levels clash this weekend when Manchester City head south to the Emirates Stadium searching for a sixth successive league clean sheet and buoyant after winning 3-0 at Old Trafford on Tuesday.

A comprehensive Manchester derby victory means City are third, three points ahead of Arsenal, and with two games in hand on leaders Chelsea.

City may be flying, but Arsenal s own title challenge has unravelled following defeats at Stoke City and Chelsea this month – the latter a 6-0 thrashing at Stamford Bridge in Wenger s 1,000th game in charge – before a last-gasp own goal meant they had to settle …

David Beckham will look for a short-term move to Europe over the winter in a bid to regain his spot in the England national team.

Beckham s club the Los Angeles Galaxy do not start their new MLS season until March, meaning the 35-year-old must look elsewhere to keep up his match fitness and keep his name in England boss Fabio Capello s thinking.

AC Milan has been Beckham s club of choice the last two winters, but with a move back to the San Siro unlikely this year, the former England captain said he would look elsewhere for an opportunity.

I won t be going back to AC Milan this time because it is not possible to go onto the roster for such a short length of time, he said.

But I will be going back somewhere as I want to keep myself fit and keep myself i…

Premier League champions Chelsea are weighing up a summer bid for Middlesbrough winger Adama Traore, according to Catalan media outlet Sport.

The 21-year-old has shown some promise in his debut season with Boro despite failing to get on the scoresheet in 27 Premier League appearances, and the Blues manager Antonio Conte clearly believes he has the potential to develop into a quality footballer.

Traore should be available for sale now that Middlesbrough were relegated to the Championship, but it remains to be seen whether the two sides can reach an agreement over the transfer fee.

The highly rated winger had come through Barcelona’s famous youth academy and eventually made a £7 million switch to Aston Villa in 2015.

However, Traore was largely disappoi…

Alexis Sanchez and Arturo Vidal headline a star-studded Chile squad for next month s Confederations Cup in Russia.

Confederations Cup opponents Germany decided to rest their biggest stars for the upcoming tournament but South American champions Chile opted for a strong side.

While Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger would have preferred to see Sanchez rested following consecutive appearances at the 2014 World Cup and the Copa America in 2015 and 2016, Chile boss Juan Antonio Pizzi had no hesitation including the 28-year-old in his 17-man squad, initially made up of European-based players.

Domestic-based players are yet to be named.

Chile s joint all-time leading goalscorer – alongside Marcelo Salas with 37 – has netted 23 Premier League goals this season a…
