Manchester United and Chelsea have been handed a boost in their pursuit of Jonathan Tah, with the Bayer Leverkusen defender keen to secure a transfer move to the Premier League. Tah, 28, has just one year remaining on his current contract at Leverkusen and has no intention of extending his stay with the German champions beyond the end of the 2024/25 campaign. The sought-after centre-back repeatedly knocked back Leverkusen’s attempts to place him on a new deal this summer and made no secret of his desire for a fresh challenge while speaking to the media ahead of Germany’s 5-0 victory over Hungary last weekend. #footballfanarena #ffa #manchesterunited #tah #bayerleverkusen #transferwindow #football #premierleague

Enzo Fernandez’s poor performance in Chelsea’s 2-0 defeat to Manchester City on Sunday was blasted by pundits including Gary Neville. Goals from Erling Haaland and Mateo Kovacic got the reigning champions off to the perfect start as they kicked-off their Premier League campaign at Stamford Bridge. Chelsea had their moments but largely struggled in Enzo Maresca’s first game in charge, with Fernandez coming in for a lot of scrutiny. The midfielder, who wore the captain’s armband in Reece James’ absence, was already under the microscope having been at the centre of a racism row following Argentina’s Copa America win and endured a very difficult opening-half. #footballfanarena #ffa #chelsea #mancity #erlinghaaland #mateo #enzomaresca #football

Wayne Rooney said he was both ‘angry’ and ‘disappointed’ following Plymouth’s thumping 4-0 defeat at the hands of Sheffield United and admitted the ugly-looking scoreline was thoroughly ‘deserved’. Rooney, 38, was confirmed as Plymouth’s new head coach back in May, with the legendary ex-Manchester United and England captain succeeding Ian Foster in the hot seat at Home Park. The appointment raised eyebrows given Rooney’s previous managerial stint in charge of Birmingham City lasted just 15 games, with the club slipping from sixth to 20th in the Championship table. On his return to England’s second tier, there was yet more misery for Rooney, who said he was excited for a fresh challenge in the build-up – but cut a frustrated figure in the dugout for the most part at Hillsborough. #footballfanarena #ffa #manchesterunited #waynerooney #england #hillsborough #football

Pep Guardiola believes Premier League title rivals Arsenal are ‘on fire’ ahead of the new campaign as they bid to end Manchester City’s reign as champions. Mikel Arteta’s side pushed City in last season’s title race, which went down to the final day and saw the top two separated by just two points. The Gunners have since strengthened their squad with the signing of Italy defender Riccardo Calafiori and also recorded an impressive 4-1 win over German champions Bayer Leverkusen in a recent pre-season friendly. Asked ahead of the Community Shield against FA Cup winners Manchester United if he was concerned about his side’s potential title rivals, Guardiola said: ‘Of course. #footballfanarena #ffa #premierleague #pepguardiola #manchesterunited #mancity #arsenal #football
