Arsenal are said to be willing to offload Mesut Ozil, Matteo Guendouzi, Sokratis Papastathopoulos and Ainsley Maitland-Niles in order to bankroll their spending this summer. The Premier League side are planning to complete the transfer for Kokcu before this summer's European Championships as they are worried about losing out to a rival club if he has an outstanding tournament.
Those of us who dealt with him on a daily basis and liked him saw a driven individual who burned with the passion to bring titles back to Anfield. He could not and left in January 1994. Roy Evans, labelled "the last of the bootroom boys" when promoted from his role as Souness' right-hand man, was another destined for frustration as the United superpower grew stronger and Arsenal emerged under Arsene Wenger.
The virus has shut down many countries and has wreaked havoc with the sporting calendar across the globe. In this spirit of camaraderie between professional and non-professional football, we have decided, as a team, to give up part of our Euro 2020 qualification prize money," the national team said in a statement.
No transfers can take place between Premier League clubs in this period. The EFL also said any new signings by its clubs could not play until the start of the 2020-21 season. This is applicable to clubs involved in the Championship play-offs," it explained in a statement. The EFL added: "The window for international registrations closes at 23:00 BST on Monday, 5 October, with an agreement in place with the Premier League for an extended two-week domestic-only window, which will close at 17:00 on Friday, 16 October.

As cases of coronavirus have spread in Brazil, reaching over 2,900 on Thursday, state authorities have sought sports venues for use as temporary hospitals. Seventy-eight people have died from the disease, although right-wing President Jair Bolsonaro has repeatedly downplayed the severity of the illness, comparing it to a "little flu.
One way or another, whether the stadiums stay empty or the season is suspended for a few weeks, it is just a matter of time before Liverpool win the title. Everyone is asking 'how will they celebrate?' if they cannot get into the ground where and when the title is won but, after waiting 30 years to see it happen, I am sure Liverpool supporters will not mind waiting a few extra weeks for the party. Lawro's prediction: 1-1Lawro was speaking to BBC Sport's Chris Bevan.
Southampton said that players, coaches and the board of directors deferring their salary will "help protect the future of the club, the staff that work within it and the community we serve". Over the past few weeks, there has been considerable pressure on Premier League players, including from leading politicians, to take pay cuts. But Ward-Prowse, who has two England caps, said: "It was never about doing it quickly or facing any pressure, it was about making sure we made the right decision for the people and the community and we definitely have done that.

Inter have scored at least two goals in their last three home matches. Brescia are without a win in their last 13 Serie A matches. Inter are unbeaten in five matches against Brescia. Inter are undefeated in 18 of their last 20 Serie A matches. Inter Milan aim to keep their faint title hopes alive when they host Brescia in Serie A on Wednesday night.
The hosts score an average of 1.00 goals per home game and concede an average of 1.23 goals while Northampton score an average of 1.08 goals and concede an average of 1.58 goals, which is why we have backed a final scoreline of 1-1 between the pair this weekend. 31% of Salford’s home games have ended in stalemates as well as 33% of Northampton’s away games, which suggests a draw is a likely outcome this weekend.
It's fascinating and mesmerising to be a Sheffield United fan right now - and it must be for many in football from the outside looking in too. We are seventh in the Premier League and I'm not sure what to do with that. I have never known success as a football fan - Sheffield United or England. I hate to say it but I'm almost waiting for something to go wrong. I spoke to the communications officer at United the other day and we were laughing at how manager Chris Wilder had to do nine post-match interviews.
Manchester United are looking to record consecutive away victories against Manchester City for the first time since winning four in a row between November 1993 and November 2000, with all wins in that run coming in league games. In all competitions, the home side has won just two of the last 11 matches between Manchester City and Manchester United (W2 D2 L7) - indeed, the away side has won five of the last six, including each of the last three.

The outcome, never truly in doubt, was assured in the 68th minute when a blocked shot from David Silva fell to Rodri on the edge of the box and the Spanish midfielder blasted a thundering, unstoppable drive past goalkeeper Nick Pope to make it 3-0. City substitute Riyad Mahrez made it four, three minutes from the end, with a low shot from the edge of the box but Guardiola will be disappointed that his team allowed Robbie Brady a late consolation goal for the home side.
But he still had so much hard work to do, somehow managing to squeeze the ball through the tiny gap and into the back of the net. How?!"Mo scored the most difficult situation of the whole night!" an incredulous manager Jurgen Klopp told BT Sport. I have no idea [how]. With his quality, how he didn't score one or two of the others I have no clue. He played really well but didn't score in the situations we expect him usually to score, but staying on track and making such a decisive and very difficult finish, that probably says much more about him than all of the other goals he has scored.
People may think my name got me the best of care but every patient in the NHS gets the best of care," Dalglish told The Sunday Post. As a nation, we are lucky to have them and I wish them all well as they work tirelessly to help the country through this pandemic. Dalglish won the Scottish league title four times at Celtic before moving to Liverpool in 1977. At Liverpool his honours included eight league Championships as a player and manager and three European Cups.
Well, perhaps he's not in that class but he did show the same composure as the former Republic of Ireland legend to convert Arsenal's penalty against Sheffield United and send the Gunners on their way to yet another FA Cup semi-final. Nevertheless I have had to replace Pepe with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang after he destroyed a beleaguered Norwich City will some great finishing at Emirates Stadium. I've made my position clear about the importance of Mesut Ozil and his relevance but if Arsenal were to lose Aubameyang as well they can consign themselves to mid-table mediocrity.
Former Brazilian Football Confederation president Ricardo Teixeira has been banned from the game for life by Fifa. Teixeira, who resigned in 2012, was found guilty of bribery in violation of the Fifa code of ethics. Fifa said its former executive committee member took bribes for marketing and media rights for continental and Brazilian football competitions between 2006 and 2012. A fine of one million Swiss francs (£773,500) was "imposed", Fifa said.
This is friendly duel from two Austrian Clubs and I really hope that they will play one very interesting match today with plenty of goals. Of course, it is the fact that this rivals are teams who are mostly playing in second or even third league in this country, but in this case, this is match without any pressure with result, so, offensive and efficient match is very real. Probably Liefering is have better chances to win, because they are "younger brother" of Red Bull Salzburg, but this is friendly match and it is better to bet on goals here.
It also agreed to set up an "expert group" to look into whether the rules need to be changed to allow for better treatment for players who suffer concussion. The group will look a new ways of assessing concussion during a match and how to deal with it, "taking into consideration all potential resulting consequences, with player safety at the forefront".
