Nikola Jokić
December 2025

Nikola Jokić left Denver’s loss in Miami after appearing to injure his left knee just before halftime, with the Nuggets providing no immediate clarity on severity. His absence would heavily impact Denver given their injury list. A teammate stepped on Jokić’s left foot in the final seconds of the second quarter and his knee appeared to buckle. He was helped up and walked to the locker room, then did not return, as Denver were already missing multiple rotation players.

Brennan Johnson
December 2025

Crystal Palace have reportedly agreed a £35 million deal with Tottenham for Brennan Johnson, but the player has not agreed personal terms and is considering options amid other Premier League interest.

Nicky Butt
December 2025

Nicky Butt has delivered a harsh assessment of Manchester United’s decline, saying the club’s problems are structural and predicting it could take five to eight years before they are close to winning the Premier League again. Butt argues recruitment standards and the club’s overall foundation have deteriorated, to the point that even elite managers would not fix it quickly. He referenced United’s post-2013 instability and the 2024-25 collapse to 15th as evidence of deep-rooted issues.

Liverpool Sack Set-Piece Coach After Dead-Ball Collapse Trend

Liverpool
December 2025

Liverpool have removed first-team set-piece coach Aaron Briggs as concern grows over repeated problems defending and attacking dead-ball situations. The issue has directly influenced recent matches despite otherwise strong spells. Liverpool have conceded 12 non-penalty goals from set pieces in the league, with corners a major weakness, and their attacking output from set plays has also lagged. Set-piece concessions against Tottenham and Wolves shifted momentum in matches Liverpool led 2-0, forcing difficult finishes.

Manuel Ugarte
December 2025

Galatasaray are targeting Manuel Ugarte for a January loan and are open to a permanent deal in summer valued around £22 million. Manchester United are reportedly willing to move him on as Amorim reshapes the midfield. Ugarte has struggled to consistently impose himself since arriving from Paris Saint-Germain in a deal reported up to £51 million, despite recent starts due to injuries and absences. Even after a strong display in a 1-0 win over Newcastle, he is still being listed among potential January exits.

Enzo Maresca
December 2025

Chelsea again dropped points after leading Aston Villa, and Enzo Maresca admitted he cannot fully explain why his side keeps losing control of games. Joao Pedro’s first-half opener was not enough, as Villa turned it around with a decisive second-half response. Chelsea missed chances to extend the lead through Cole Palmer and Reece James, keeping Villa alive. Unai Emery’s triple change on the hour shifted momentum, and substitute Ollie Watkins scored twice. Maresca said the pattern is recurring and not random.

Mohamed Salah
December 2025

Egypt stayed unbeaten at AFCON after drawing 0-0 with Angola in their final Group B match, with Mohamed Salah unused on the bench. The Pharaohs had already secured a last-16 spot, so the result was about managing minutes rather than chasing goals. Coach Hossam Hassan rotated heavily and also rested Omar Marmoush, keeping key players fresh for the knockouts. Egypt had qualified via earlier wins over Zimbabwe and South Africa, then closed the group with a clean sheet at Adrar Stadium in Morocco.
