Borussia Monchengladbach look set to see star midfield Manu Kone depart the club this summer. The midfielder arrived in Germany two years ago, and has set the tone for the Borussen outfit with his high-energy, aggressive approach to the game. A major part of what has made Kone such a standout has been his excellent [...]
When FC Barcelona completed the signing of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang in January, eyebrows were raised. They were signing an ageing, inconsistent forward who had more or less bombed his way out of his previous two clubs.

For Tottenham fans, being able to sing about ‘one of our own’ has been a wonderful part of recent history. The club has become recognised for giving youth a chance from the academy.

When a player as quality as Erling Haaland comes on the market, it is hard for managers of top clubs to hide their excitement.
