    Shaun Wright-Phillips has urged Chelsea to make Malick Thiaw their top January target, arguing the Newcastle centre-back is worth a huge outlay after emerging as one of Eddie Howe’s most reliable defenders and a long-term solution for a fragile back line. The former Chelsea winger points to Thiaw’s rise from Schalke to AC Milan and now Newcastle, noting his consistency, age and adaptability. He concedes any deal would be extremely difficult given contract length and importance, but insists Chelsea must still test Newcastle’s resolve.

    November 2025

    Manchester United’s long-running pursuit of Atalanta midfielder Ederson has been handed encouragement after his agent Andre Cury suggested the Brazilian could be available for €30–40 million in 2026, roughly half the fee Serie A side previously wanted for the in-demand all-rounder. Cury claims Atalanta once valued Ederson between €60m and €75m but may now cut their price as his contract winds down, describing him as a “spectacular” player with some of Europe’s best midfield statistics, while suitors such as Liverpool continue to monitor his situation.

    Newcastle to file formal complaint over Marseille police conduct

    November 2025

    Newcastle United have condemned the “unacceptable” treatment of their travelling support in Marseille, claiming fans were indiscriminately assaulted by police using pepper spray, batons and shields after the 2-1 Champions League defeat and confirming they will file formal complaints with UEFA, Marseille and French authorities. The club say supporters patiently waited up to an hour in the away sector under an agreed phased-exit plan before officers suddenly blocked movement, triggering distress and crushing in the concourse, despite fans being in “good spirits” and under observation from Newcastle stewards and staff.

    November 2025

    Vitinha delivered a career-best display with his first professional hat-trick as Paris Saint-Germain overturned two deficits to beat Tottenham 5-3 in a chaotic Champions League tie, keeping the holders on course for a top-eight league-phase finish and strengthening their grip on qualification. The midfielder equalised before half-time, struck again after Spurs’ second goal, then completed his treble from the penalty spot after Fabian Ruiz and Willian Pacho had scored, later crediting a new goalscoring mindset and inspiration from Joao Neves’ recent hat-trick for his sudden scoring surge.

    November 2025

    Vinicius Jr has eased his stance in renewal talks and is now close to accepting Real Madrid’s reduced salary offer, stepping back from initial demands to match Kylian Mbappe’s pay as the club pushes to secure his long-term future before 2027. Earlier, negotiations froze amid tension with Xabi Alonso as Vinicius bristled at substitutions, clashed during El Clasico and led a small disgruntled group, but a dressing-room apology and public embrace after the 4-3 win at Olympiacos have reset relations and unlocked progress.

    Kai Rooney nears Old Trafford bow after injury nightmare

    November 2025

    Teenage forward Kai Rooney is closing in on a return from a serious injury suffered in September that left him on crutches and in a protective boot, ending a spell he described online as “life can’t get worse” while he endured a lengthy lay-off away from Manchester United’s academy pitches. Having resumed training at the start of the month, Rooney is pushing to be fit for the U18s’ FA Youth Cup clash against Peterborough, moved to Old Trafford instead of Leigh Sports Village. The tie could deliver his first appearance at the stadium, potentially alongside highly rated team-mate JJ “Kid Messi” Gabriel in a landmark night for both prospects.

    Slot “almost confused” by Liverpool’s league collapse

    Arne Slot (Liverpool)
    November 2025

    Arne Slot admitted he is “almost confused” by Liverpool’s disastrous Premier League run, with the defending champions losing six of their last seven league games and sitting in the bottom half despite heavy summer investment and three wins from four in a strong Champions League campaign. Pointing to big-money arrivals such as Isak, Wirtz, Ekitike, Kerkez and Frimpong, Slot insisted the squad has enough quality and noted recent European victories over Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid and Eintracht Frankfurt. However, he conceded that “far too many games” have been lost domestically and that he has yet to “find a winning way” in the league.

    Mbappe scores seven-minute hat-trick to bury Olympiacos

    Kylian Mbappe (Real Madrid)
    November 2025

    Olympiacos briefly stunned Real Madrid with a superb team goal, only for Kylian Mbappe to respond with a ruthless seven-minute hat-trick before half-time, flipping the game from 1-0 down to a commanding Real lead and adding another historic European feat to his record. After ending a three-match scoring drought with the equaliser on 22 minutes, Mbappe headed in a second moments later, then latched onto Arda Guler’s lofted pass to drill a low third past Konstantinos Tzolakis. The explosive burst reasserted Madrid’s control and ensured another match ball for the France star.

    Liverpool thrashed by PSV as Ekitike injury deepens crisis

    Liverpool
    November 2025

    Liverpool’s season hit a new low with a 4-1 home defeat to PSV, marking nine losses in their last 12 games and dragging them down to 13th in the Champions League standings. Goals from Ivan Perisic, Guus Til and a Couhaib Driouech brace exposed a fragile, disjointed defence. Slot’s rotated side never settled, and the night worsened when in-form summer signing Hugo Ekitike limped off just after the hour, forcing the underperforming Alexander Isak into another goalless appearance. The Sweden striker’s ongoing drought and the team’s collapsing form will intensify scrutiny on Slot’s selections and ability to halt the slide.

    Away fans clashed with police and stewards in the Bayern section at the Emirates before kick-off, with confrontations and unrest confined to the visiting end. Earlier, hundreds of Bayern supporters had marched around Highbury Fields with flares under police escort but without reported violence toward home fans. Met Police implemented a “robust policing plan”, working with Arsenal security and urging vigilance from all supporters, including ticketless Bayern fans. The tension followed previous UEFA sanctions that banned Bayern fans from an away leg at Arsenal after repeated pyrotechnic offences, leaving the club under close scrutiny over supporter behaviour.
