Newcastle United are reportedly plotting an ambitious move for Aston Villa outcast turned Serie A sensation, Donyell Malen. According to Football Insider, Eddie Howe has identified the Dutch attacker as one of his attacking targets in the summer transfer window. Following the failures of Yoane Wissa and Nick Woltemade this season, both of whom were signed to replace Alexander Isak, the Magpies are out in the market once again to add attacking options to their squad.

AC Milan Women suffered a setback on Sunday afternoon as they were beaten by Roma away from home, in a game with just one goal. Milan Femminile had another positive result on Sunday afternoon as they beat Genoa 2-1 thanks to a late goal. Again it was Kayleigh van Dooren who netted a brace, opening the scoring then bagging two minutes from time after Dompig had put her through on goal.

According to a report from Fichajes, Barcelona are closely following the progress of Neil El Aynaoui, a midfielder who is currently enjoying an impressive spell with AS Roma. El Aynaoui, 24, is viewed as a player capable of contributing immediately while still offering long-term value. That dual profile is precisely what makes him appealing to Barcelona, a club that continues to search for balance between short-term competitiveness and sustainable squad building.

AS Roma are one of the biggest clubs in Italy and ended up having a successful season in the 2024-25 campaign. What looked like a campaign to forget was salvaged by then-manager Claudio Ranieri, guiding the team to a fifth-placed finish in the Serie A table. Gian Piero Gasperini is now the manager of Roma, who are playing in the UEFA Europa League this season.

The home side did not take long to open the deadlock, with a mistimed header at the back setting Matias Soule through on goal after 14 minutes, and he made no mistake with a curling finish beyond Daniele Sommariva. Roma scored a second just five minutes later, as Manu Kone burst from midfield and found the net with a side-footed effort, after fine play by Evan Ferguson in the build-up.

We leave football to one side in normal life. There's been a lot of talk about the game, maybe a little too much.
