Everything is possible – Huntelaar hints at potential Ajax return

that Victor Moses has refused to rule out the possibility of resurrecting his Chelsea career.

Having spent last season on loan at Liverpool, the Nigeria international moved to Stoke City on a temporary basis in the summer and has so far made ten appearances in all competitions for Mark Hughes’ side, scoring his one and only goal so far in Saturday’s 2-2 draw with high-flying West Ham United.

Before leaving the club in the summer of 2013, Moses turned out forty-three times for Chelsea, with all his appearances coming in one season, while he hit double figures in goals scoring in each of the five competitions he played in.

Internationally, the former Crystal Palace and Wigan Athletic man has twenty-two caps for his country, with two of those appearances co…

Manchester City striker Mario Balotelli has accepted a two-week fine after breaching the club s discipline rules.

The 22-year-old received nine yellow cards and three red cards and a four-game ban for stamping on Tottenham midfielder Scott Parker throughout the 2011-12 season, for which the Premier League champions saw fit to discipline the player.

Balotelli took the punishment to a tribunal after refuting the severity, but the club has now confirmed that the striker has withdrawn the external action and accepted the fine as a sign of respect for Roberto Mancini, the supporters and the club .

A statement from Manchester City read: After amicable talks between the parties, as a sign of respect for Roberto Mancini, the supporters and the club, Mario Balotelli has …

Sampdoria s director general Beppe Marotta told Corriere dello Sport on Tuesday there is little chance that Andriy Shevchenko will join the Genoese club.

The 31-year-old Ukrainian international who has had a miserable time at English Premiership side Chelsea since he moved from AC Milan in 2006 has been linked in recent days with a loan move to Sampdoria, but Marotta said that the only club he is likely to join in Italy is Milan.

Sheva has been suggested, but there s zero possibility that he will come to us, said Marotta.

I just keep thinking of Galliani s (AC Milan vice-president Adriano) words when he declared that if Shevchenko leaves Chelsea it will only be to wear the red and black shirt.

Marotta did say that it is more likely former Milan and …

Talk of a swap deal involving Cristiano Ronaldo and Neymar is a foolish  attempt to divert attention away from Real Madrid s current plight, says former president Ramon Calderon.

After Saturday s 1-0 LaLiga defeat to Villarreal left Madrid 16 points behind Barcelona, Spanish radio programme El Larguero suggested Los Blancos could allow Ronaldo to leave in order to bring former Barcelona forward Neymar back to Spain.

Suggestions of a Madrid move for Neymar surfaced in late 2017 and have continued into the new year, despite the Brazil international only moving to Paris Saint-Germain in August.

PSG have continued to refute the claims, and Calderon says bringing them back into the public eye is just a tactic to ease pressure on Zinedine Zidane s side.

Sochaux right-back Sebastien Corchia is eyeing a summer move to a prestigious club, preferably in England or Germany, amid reports that Arsenal, Bayern Munich and Tottenham Hotspur are tracking the France Under-21 international, .

Since joining Sochaux from Le Mans in June 2011, Corchia has been a key figure in the first-team at the Stade Auguste Bonal, making 50-plus appearances for the Montbéliard-based club.

Corchia, 22, is attracting interest from Lyon and Juventus, but German giants Bayern Munich are believed to be leading the race for the 22-year-old s signature.

North London rivals Arsenal and Spurs are also said to be keen on the Frenchman.

Corchia, formerly of the Paris Saint-Germain youth system, is in the know regarding int…

Sergio Ramos departure will be a huge loss to Real Madrid, according to Eder Militao.

The long-serving defender delivered an emotional farewell speech last week as he nears the end of a contract that will not be renewed.

Ramos deal expires at the end of the month and the 35-year-old will seek a fresh challenge after no new terms were agreed upon.

He will leave having enjoyed a remarkable 16-year spell at the Santiago Bernabeu, where the Spaniard s many successes included four Champions League titles.

Team-mate Militao is just one man who is sad to see the Madrid legend depart.

I never thought this day would come, but everything has a beginning and an end.

We know about the history of Sergio and w…

Robert Lewandowski has insisted he is no rush to sign a new deal with Bayern Munich amid interest from Real Madrid.

The Poland international s agent, Cezary Kucharski, recently admitted they have held talks with the Champions League winners, fuelling speculation Lewandowski could be on the move ahead of next season.

Bayern chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge quickly stressed the 27-year-old is not for sale at any price and the Bavarians are keen to hold on to the prolific striker beyond the expiry date of his current deal in June 2019.

The Bundesliga champions have already sat down with their top scorer on more than one occasion to discuss a renewal, but talks have so far been fruitless.

Lewandowski remains calm about his future, though, and is adamant he has …

Real Madrid goalkeeper Iker Casillas has rejected a move to big-spending Manchester City, which was ready to pay a world record 150 million euros for the Spanish international, Spanish media said.

Under the deal, Casillas would have received 13 million euros a year to play for the English Premier League side, bought in September by the Abu Dhabi United Group.

Private Spanish radio station Cadena Ser, which is usually well-informed, said Manchester City made the written offer to the player s agent Luis Garcia Abad.

It was not forwarded to Real as Casillas immediately rejected it, the radio said.

The offer of 150 million euros (190 million dollars, 129 million pounds) would dwarf the current world record 76 million euros paid by Real Madrid to Juventus…

Roberto Carlos is confident Real Madrid can win a third consecutive Champions League title despite their underwhelming performances this season.

Under the tutelage of Zinedine Zidane, Madrid became the first side to successfully defend the European crown in its current format in 2017.

Los Blancos also won LaLiga last term, but domestic success this season has failed to materialise – Madrid are 15 points behind league leaders Barcelona and were beaten by Leganes in the Copa del Rey.

Despite their troubles at home, Madrid have continued to flourish in the Champions League and face Juventus over two legs next month in the last eight.

And Roberto Carlos is convinced his former club can go all the way, even though the likes of Barca, Bayern Munich and Manche…

Real Sociedad boss David Moyes admits his decision to move to San Sebastian from the Premier League was a gamble .

The Scot previously spent 11 years at Everton, which finally came to an end when he was appointed as Alex Ferguson s successor at Manchester United ahead of the 2013-14 campaign.

The move did not work out for Moyes, however, and he departed Old Trafford after 10 months in charge as United missed out on European qualification.

In November last year, Moyes accepted the role at Sociedad, and has guided the club to 11th in La Liga with three matches remaining.

I saw potential to build. It was a gamble but it was the right time, he told The Guardian.

I wasn t going to sit about for six months. I wanted to work abroad, learn a new langua…
