United and Arsenal vying for Benteke

The Belgian has seen his name linked with a number of high-profile clubs after impressing in his first Premier League season.

Benteke submitted a transfer request during the summer transfer window, but he was eventually persuade to stay and even signed a new contract at Villa Park.

Nevertheless, Daily Star has suggested that the 22-year-old could be moving clubs as soon as January.

Long-term admirers Arsenal are expected to return for the highly rated forward, with Arsene Wenger desperate to sign another high-profile striker.

Meanwhile, Manchester United boss David Moyes has…

Arsenal battled to a 2-0 win over West Brom at the Emirates as they got their title challenge back on track. With two defeats to go with two wins and a draw, it was vital for Arsene Wenger s side to claim all three points, and they did just that. West Brom, on the other hand, were consigned to their second defeat of the campaign which sees them stay in 12th place.

Both goals were scored by Arsenal s record-signing Alexandre Lacazette as the Frenchman plundered his first brace in front of the home fans. West Brom were not able to offer much in attack as they struggled to get the ball off Arsenal, something that Tony Pulis could not change despite a number of substitutions and a change in formation.

Here are the five things we learned from tonight s encounter:

Wales dominated Russia to seal their progression to the Euro 2016 knockout stages as Group B winners with a stunning 3-0 victory in Toulouse.

Showing no signs of a hangover from their last-gasp 2-1 defeat to England in Lens on Thursday, Chris Coleman s side controlled the game from start to finish and took the lead through a neat Aaron Ramsey finish.

Neil Taylor had Wales two up by the 20th minute, with Leonid Slutsky s men limited to an Artem Dzyuba strike out of nothing that forced Wayne Hennessey into a good save.

And Gareth Bale, a scorer in each of Wales opening two matches, continued his hot streak to round off the result, beating the beleaguered Igor Akinfeev after 67 minutes.

Wales will now face the third-placed side from Group A, C or D in the…

Everton are holding out for £75m for Romelu Lukaku, .

The Belgium international has emerged has a target for Chelsea, the club who sold him to the Toffees just two years ago though the Merseyside outfit will not let him go without a fight.

Talks have been ongoing between the two sides, though Everton are refusing to budge on their valuation of the striker.

However,…

Lucas Leiva believes Liverpool must beat Hull City on Wednesday if they have realistic aspirations of UEFA Champions League qualification.

Brendan Rodgers side were top of the Premier League on Christmas Day, but now sit fifth in the table after consecutive 2-1 defeats at Manchester City and Chelsea.

Liverpool have not competed in the Champions League since 2009-10, but have established themselves as one of the leading contenders to finish in the Premier League s top four this season.

The Merseysiders home form was a major factor in their strong first half of the campaign, with them having won eight of their nine top-flight games at Anfield, scoring 25 goals in the process.

And Brazil international Lucas feels continuing this trend in 2014 is key to their hopes o…

Looking to get the defence of their Champions League title underway on Wednesday night, Bayern Munich will welcome Atletico Madrid to the Allianz.

Bayern Munich

Starting with the hosts, while a stunning shock defeat away at Hoffenheim last month might have brought an end to Bayern Munich s remarkable unbeaten run, the defending European champions have bounced back in impressive fashion. Last seen returning from the international break by picking up a routine 4-1 victory away at Bundesliga debutants Arminia Bielefeld over the weekend, the German giants have won their last four matchups across all competitions and have already got two pieces of silverware in the bag this season. Lifting both the UEFA Super Cup and the German Super Cup th…

Jurgen Klopp is thrilled Joe Gomez has agreed a new long-term contract at Liverpool, calling it a smart decision from both the player and the club s hierarchy.

Gomez has steadily established himself as a first-team regular at Anfield since arriving from Charlton Athletic in 2015, nailing down a place in Klopp s starting XI this term.

The 21-year-old made his England debut last year and has impressed for the Three Lions, though injury robbed him of a place in their World Cup squad.

He sustained another injury in last week s win over Burnley, suffering a lower-leg fracture, meaning he is again set for a spell on the sidelines.

Although Klopp sympathises with Gomez s injury problems, he has no doubts the contract extension which was announced on Monday will …

It was never going to be easy to replace the like of great Steven Gerrard as Liverpool captain, but Jordan Henderson never backed down under this huge responsibility.

Some English fans need to be reminded of this little detail which occurred earlier in 2015 when midfielder was officially named permanent holder of the captain’s armband under Brendan Rodgers.

The 26-year-old English international midfielder went through thick and thin since then, fighting criticism, doubts and heavy pressure but has successfully emerged from under the mud to become an important figure for his club impressing with confidence and quality performances that have recommended him for his new England role.

Well-deserved Honour…

The beauty of all this is the process, Lionel Scaloni said post-game.

Sixteen games unbeaten and through to the Copa America quarter-finals for the 14th consecutive CONMEBOL tournament.

Papu Gomez s delightful 10th-minute effort over onrushing Antony Silva extended Argentina s undefeated streak, while snapping a four-match winless drought against Paraguay on Monday.

Add seven clean sheets during an unbeaten run, dating back to the 2019 Copa America semi-finals, and it sounds wonderful for La Albiceleste in pursuit of a first major title since 1993.

This is not your usual Argentina, despite boasting a record six-time Ballon d Or winner – Lionel Messi, who equalled Javier Mascherano s appearance record with his 147th cap – hellbent on claiming an elusi…
