🚨Arsenal look to have won the race for Salford City’s 17-year-old sensation Will Wright after hijacking Liverpool’s £100,000 transfer.

Arsenal offered £250,000 plus major add-ons where as Liverpool stood firm at £100,000 plus add-ons.

The striker stands at 6ft 3 and netted over 40 goals for Salford’s youth team last season.

💙🇨🇲 Since Marc-Vivien Foe passed away, Manchester City have retired their Number 23 shirt which the late player wore in his time at the club!

On loan from Lyon in the 2002-2003 season, Foé made 35 appearances for City and was second highest goalscorer (9 goals) during the season. He also scored Manchester City's last goal in their final game at the old ground at Mane Road.

City were impressed with his performances and were about signing him permanently when death snatched him.

The club has never forgotten the Cameroonian midfielder and to honour his memory, they retired their number 23 shirt.

RESPECT!🙏🏽

🎙️🗣️🇵🇹Mourinho: "Ibra entered the locker room and said,
‘I'm leaving Inter, I'm going to Barcelona. I want to win the Champions League.' My Italian assistants were standing there like statues, and his teammates didn't want to lose a player like him. Without him, winning the Champions League would have been impossible. I was sad, but at the same time, I told him, 'Maybe you'll leave, and we'll win the title.' He didn't believe me at the time.

Later, I went to Branca and told him, 'When you go to Barcelona, try to bring Eto'o with you. With Milito, he will be able to do a great tactical job in attack. If you bring Samuel Eto'o, we'll win the Champions League!' And that's exactly what happened."

Ouma has grown from strength to strength since sealing his move from Nairobi City Stars to Swedish side Elfsborg back in August 2022 and has in the recent transfer window attracted huge suitors.

🗣 Shakhtar Donetsk CEO Sergei Palkin on Manor Solomon's transfer to Tottenham:

"Since October, we have been diligently engaged in negotiations with Tottenham. But finally Tottenham has not acted in a manner that reflects the principles of fairness and equity. In this situation, we feel a sense of disrespect from Tottenham. If you go deeply in my feelings during these months we have negotiated. Actually, we would like to appeal to Spurs chairman Daniel Levy to act in good faith and uphold the shared values of the European football family to find a fair way to compensate us in this transfer, what we are talking about."

"They offered something but it is not even serious what they offered. It is something like peanuts to show they are ready to give something but this is not comparable with what they received. A club like Tottenham cannot behave like this. It is a top, well-known worldwide club and to behave like they are doing is very strange. We negotiated with them for many months, we respected them and we didn't ask to be honest for some kind of huge amount. We didn't even ask for money. We said 'OK, give us a sell-on fee for the future'. When you receive a player free and this player is worth €20m - the transfer market always undervalues players - it means something."

"It means we developed and invested in this player. You should respect our work. If we all say we are one football family and after that you receive a player for free and don't pay attention to our side, it is not fair."

"For me, 20%, 30% would be fair value. In this situation that would be fair value. We are going to bring legal action against Spurs if needed. But in any case, why I am appealing to the chairman of Spurs is because I believe he will give his hand and support us."
