First it was his ACL now it's COVID-19, there's no doubting someone up there just doesn't want Leroy Sane to leave Manchester City in favour of Bayern Munich. The 24-year-old has enjoyed a glittering four-year career on the sky blue side of Manchester; racking up five major honours and playing a starring role in the CItyzens' back-to-back Premier League triumphs. During City's 'centurions' campaign in 2017/18, Sane also brought home the PFA Young Player of the Year award. Sane returned to first team action as a substitute against Burnley In short, he's a special talent. Nevertheless, despite the best efforts of a global pandemic to alter the dynamic of the transfer market and significantly reduce the spending power of Europe's elite - including Bayern - it's hard to envisage a world in which Sane isn't strutting his stuff in Bavaria next season. The German's stay in Manchester is drawing to a close and with Pep Guardiola only willing to g...

If Juventus supporters were praying that coach Maurizio Sarri had solved the enigma which engulfed his side's attacking fluidity prior to the coronavirus outbreak, then they will have been left cursing whichever God that has clearly ignored their calls. Should you try to summarise I Bianconeri's last four performances in one word, 'underwhelming' would be a massive compliment. Juve failed to find the back of the net in their two Coppa Italia clashes against Milan and Napoli - losing the final on penalties - before edging to an unconvincing victory over Bologna on their return to Serie A duties. Juventus v US Lecce - Serie A The Old Lady did earn three points with a comfortable 4-0 win at home to Lecce on Friday evening, but the scoreline more than flattered the hosts, who were second best until being gifted a man advantage midway through the first half. But amid all of this uncertainty, lethargy and bluntness in attack, there has been one saving grace for Sarri. Juve...

Tottenham followed up their 1-1 draw with Manchester United with a 2-0 victory against West Ham on Tuesday night, climbing up to seventh in the Premier League table. A slow start to proceedings meant Lucas Moura and Harry Kane's efforts from distance were the only significant pieces of action in the opening stages. Tottenham thought they'd opened the scoring before the break through Son Heung-min The hosts continued to improve as the half wore on, however, and they thought they'd taken the lead just before the breakthrough through Son Heung-min, but the South Korean's fine finish was ruled out for offside following VAR intervention. Moura then spurned a gilt-edged opportunity in stoppage time as the sides went into half-time 0-0. A brighter start to the second period saw chances come at both ends; Eric Dier curled his effort from distance wide, Kane had his innovative flick smothered by Lukasz Fabianski, while Pablo Fornals should've done much better with his effort...

Chelsea have rejected an offer for Jorginho from Juventus which would have seen Miralem Pjanic heading to Stamford Bridge. Former Blues boss Maurizio Sarri is keen on reuniting with Jorginho after the two spent a season together in London – and three seasons together before that at Napoli – but the club have rejected the Old Lady's offer as they aren't interested in taking 30-year old Pjanic to Stamford Bridge. Frank Lampard's side have wasted no time recruiting for next season and have already landed Hakim Ziyech and Timo Werner ahead of the upcoming transfer window, but with Kai Havertz reportedly in  Chelsea 's sights, the Premier League side need to free up both squad space and money. With Havertz potentially heading to Stamford Bridge, Jorginho could be on his way out While Jorginho has been one of Chelsea's more influential players this season, Lampard is willing to let the Italian move on, but  CalcioMercato  report that the Blues rejected Juventus' offer...
