Giannis powers Bucks to vital win on return as skid finally ends

Giannis Antetokounmpo
December 2025

Giannis returned from a right calf strain to power Milwaukee’s 112-103 win in Chicago, scoring 29 points in under 25 minutes and transforming a Bucks team that had gone 3-11 without him and arrived with a 12-19 record, tied for its worst 31-game start of his era. Doc Rivers carefully limited him to 28 minutes across three second-half stints despite Giannis’ frustration, while teammates highlighted how his scoring, rim protection and gravity restored belief and sharpened execution, snapping a brutal month and giving Milwaukee a platform to climb the East once the rest of the roster also improves.

Chelsea
December 2025

Chelsea’s 2-1 home loss to Aston Villa ended in controversy when a water-filled bottle was hurled toward the visitors’ bench during post-match celebrations, landing near the away dugout, splashing players and staff and triggering immediate complaints from the Midlands club about fan behaviour. CCTV from Stamford Bridge is being reviewed as part of an internal investigation, with Chelsea pledging full cooperation with Premier League authorities to identify whoever threw the bottle and stressing that any supporter found responsible will face strong disciplinary measures, including potential bans from attending future home matches.

Rashford wins early backing from Barca members for permanent move

Marcus Rashford
December 2025

Rashford’s strong Barcelona form, with two goals and six assists on loan from United, has helped Flick’s side string together eight straight wins and build a four-point La Liga lead, prompting a member poll in which a majority backed turning his season-long loan into a permanent transfer. Mundo Deportivo reported 54.6 percent of voting socios in favour of signing him, 35.6 percent against and 6.3 percent preferring to wait, reinforcing Rashford’s public wish to stay even though any final agreement would likely require a wage reduction and a definitive decision closer to summer 2026.

Man Utd still circling Brighton’s Baleba for 2026 midfield rebuild

Carlos Baleba
December 2025

United remain interested in Brighton midfielder Baleba after balking at a £100m valuation last summer and have continued internal discussions about a future bid as they look for long-term midfield reinforcements despite already spending about £230m on transfers earlier this season. Coach Hurzeler has admitted that talk of a “big, big offer” from United affected the 21-year-old emotionally, while Baleba says he put extra pressure on himself but is working every day to rediscover last season’s level, insisting his focus stays on Brighton despite persistent links.

Grealish illness keeps him out after £20k London party with Walker

Jack Grealish
December 2025

Grealish skipped Everton’s 0-0 draw at Burnley after a London night out with Walker that reportedly included Winter Wonderland, a Mayfair dinner and a late visit to a Leicester Square strip club, with the pair said to have spent around £20,000 in total. Moyes said a “bug” left Grealish feeling sick despite training on Tuesday and stressed he would not expand on the illness, while also citing concurrent absences for Dewsbury-Hall, Branthwaite, Ndiaye and Gueye, and expressing hope his City loanee returns to training later this week.

Giannis returns from calf strain as Bucks try to revive season

Giannis Antetokounmpo
December 2025

Antetokounmpo is back in action after missing eight games with a right calf strain suffered against Detroit. Milwaukee went 2-6 without him and sit 11th in the East at 12-19, but remain within touching distance of the playoff places. Having previously battled a left adductor issue and an earlier calf strain that ended his 2023-24 season, Giannis focused his rehab on getting fully healthy amid persistent trade speculation. He insists he is “locked in” on the Bucks, recognising outside noise but prioritising fitness and a push back up the Eastern Conference standings.

Westbrook overtakes Magic in assists and joins 2,000-steal club

Russell Westbrook
December 2025

Russell Westbrook climbed to seventh on the NBA’s all-time assists list, passing Magic Johnson with his 10,142nd dime and finishing the night on 10,149. He also recorded his 2,000th career steal, becoming only the 14th player in league history to reach that mark. The Kings guard, a former MVP and three-time assists leader, now has realistic chances to leapfrog Mark Jackson and Steve Nash this season, while also chasing Mookie Blaylock and Karl Malone in career steals. The double milestone underlines his long-term playmaking and defensive impact despite changing roles late in his career.

Man Utd line up AFCON forward Sinayoko on free transfer for 2026

Lassine Sinayoko
December 2025

United are in serious talks with Auxerre forward Lassine Sinayoko, whose deal expires next summer, aiming to secure a pre-contract for a free transfer at the end of the 2025-26 season while he features for Mali at AFCON. Having already added Matheus Cunha, Bryan Mbeumo and Benjamin Sesko, Amorim still wants more attacking depth and values Sinayoko’s versatility across the front line. United are now focused on finalising personal terms this month, viewing the Auxerre striker as a low-cost way to deepen their long-term forward options.

Spurs face Manor Solomon dilemma as Villarreal loan sours

Manor Solomon
December 2025

Solomon’s second loan spell, this time at Villarreal, has stalled after a bright start, with just 358 minutes and one goal across 11 games leaving the winger frustrated. His loan deal reportedly contains a clause allowing an early January termination. Villarreal could cut the Israeli’s spell short to free wages and a squad spot, forcing Spurs to decide whether to reintegrate him for the run-in or arrange another short-term move. With game time limited in Spain and previous Leeds loan experience, Solomon’s next step will shape his stalled Premier League career.

Arteta vows Arsenal will fight City to the finish after title-race response

Mikel Arteta
December 2025

City briefly went top after a late Cherki winner at Forest, but Arsenal reclaimed first place by edging Brighton 2-1, with Odegaard’s early strike and a Rutter own goal enough despite Gomez pulling one back to set up a nervous finish at the Emirates. Arteta admitted feeling “hacked off” by last season’s home draw with Brighton but praised his side’s resilience despite another unconvincing display. He insisted Arsenal are ready to push City all the way, treating routine-looking games as must-win tests in a title race decided by tiny margins.
