Barcelona, Real Madrid and Juventus released a joint statement welcoming a Madrid court's decision on Friday asking European soccer governing body UEFA to revoke action against them for planning the creation of the breakaway Super League.
Chelsea has once again caused a stir with its new away kit. If there's something that characterizes the London club year after year, it's the annual release of away jerseys that always generate opinions and rarely leave fans feeling indifferent.
This is the case for the 2021-22 season. After unveiling the home uniform, which has a clear nod to the past, now it's the away shirts turn.
Chelsea yellow is back!
Come August, there are always a few clubs that capture the imagination with their audacious summer spending before inevitably collapsing by October. Usually this is Everton.
The return of a club legend, the signing of a highly touted prodigy or a loan move for a big-name player whose career has stalled (or preferably all three in one window) are the usual fixings for getting way too hyped before the start of a new campaign.
Manchester United isn’t playing around this summer and has had arguably the best transfer window out of all Premier League teams. Other than PSG, the potential Manchester United starting XI 2021 looks like the best in Europe.
The last time Manchester United was Premier League champion, 2013, I was finishing up middle school. Could this group of players be the ones to end its league-title drought?

This is his home.
This is where he belongs.
For over half a decade now, Jordan Pickford has been billed as the next great English goalkeeper.
He represented the national team from the U-16 side onward, was playing senior football at age 17 and became a Premier League starter by 22.
Pickford was Sunderland's best performer in his first season as a regular in 2016/17, and he was even named to WhoScored?'s EPL team of the season in spite of the Black Cats' relegation.
Wolverhampton Wanderers striker Raul Jimenez played his first game since fracturing his skull in November, featuring in a 1-0 pre-season friendly defeat by third-tier Crewe Alexandra on Saturday.
Eight months of hard work and rehabilitation have led to this moment.
We're all proud of you, @Raul_Jimenez9, and so pleased to see you back out there.
Un amistoso de pretemporada, en general, no es muy relevante en la vida de un futbolista. Para Raúl Jiménez, sin embargo, el duelo entre el Wolverhampton y el Crewe Alexandra traía un significado ultra especial: era la primera vez que el mexicano tenía la opción de entrar en un campo de fútbol, de manera competitiva, después de la fractura de cráneo que sufrió en el ya lejano noviembre de 2020.
Jiménez llegó al Gresty Road con estilo, ocultando un poco la ansiedad que seguro sentía detrás de unos aviadores oscuros.
