Thiago Alcantara says leaving Bayern Munich after seven trophy-laden seasons with the club is the most difficult decision of his career as he closes in on a move to Liverpool.

Bayern confirmed on Thursday the 29-year-old is heading to Anfield in a move Stats Perform News understands could eventually be worth £25million (€27.5m).

Spain international Thiago joined the Bavarian giants in 2013 and has won 16 trophies during that time, including a famous treble in his final campaign at the Allianz Arena.

Lionel Messi has told Barcelona he wants to leave the club. The end of an era is, seemingly, in sight and that will usher in a strange new world, for Barca and his next employers.

Unsurprisingly, debates have raged ever since the news came to light on Tuesday, with Barca receiving communication that their talisman, the most iconic player in their modern history, wants out.

In some ways it was predictable. The turmoil engulfing Barca s hierarchy and their decision making in the past few years looked destined to come to a head – there would be major consequences, and Messi leaving was always going to be the worst-case scenario.

Whether he does or not is a different matter. Some believe his request is a power-play to oust president Josep Maria Bartomeu early, and …

Everton are interested in signing Harry Souttar from Leicester City before the January transfer window, according to . The report has claimed that Everton, who are in danger of getting relegated to the Championship at the end of the season, are looking at bringing in Souttar as a potential replacement for Ben Godfrey.

Leeds United, who are looking to win automatic promotion from the Championship to the Premier League at the end of the season, and Italian club Genoa are interested in signing Godfrey. Everton are considering letting him go, and if they do so, then they will make a move for Souttar.

Souttar has been on the books of Leicester since January 2023 when he joined from Stoke City. The 25-year-old Australia international central defender has made one start and tw…

Neymar suffered a potentially serious injury as Paris Saint-Germain laboured to a 3-1 win over 10-man Saint-Etienne.

Looking for a response after their defeat to Manchester City in midweek, not to mention the speculation over Mauricio Pochettino s future, PSG fell flat for much of Sunday s game.

But Angel Di Maria and Marquinhos, who scored twice, came up with the goods, with Lionel Messi assisting all three of his side s goals in a victory that was only sealed late on.

Di Maria and Marquinhos netted in the closing stages after the defender had earlier cancelled out Denis Bouanga s opener, with Timothee Kolodziejczak sent off for the struggling hosts before the break.

However, PSG will now hold concern over Neymar, who was taken off on a stretcher with…

Ramos became the most capped European male player with 177 international appearances in Saturday s 1-1 draw against Switzerland, although he missed two penalties.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer tasted sweet victory in the derby as his Manchester United side stunned Manchester City with a 2-1 victory at the Etihad Stadium.

United were brilliant in the first half, as impressive as they have been in the 12 months of their Norwegian manager s tenure, and a penalty from Marcus Rashford followed by Anthony Martial s sharp finish made it their day. A late Nicolas Otamendi header could not save the hosts.

City now sit 14 points behind leaders Liverpool in the Premier League, hopes of defending their title surely all but extinguished by this result. Questions will be asked of Pep Guardiola s leadership, and how he has allowed their defence to become such a weakness.

But for Solskjaer, months of speculation about his job security can be swe…

David Moyes has led West Ham to their highest ever points total at the halfway stage of a Premier League season.

The Hammers moved up to seventh in the table after Jarrod Bowen and Michail Antonio were on target in a 2-1 win over relegation-threatened West Brom at London Stadium.

The result moved Moyes side to 32 points (W9 D5 L5) and they have never had more after 19 games in the competition.

West Ham s previous best came midway through 2014-15 when they had 31 points under the leadership of Sam Allardyce, who was the defeated Baggies boss on Tuesday.

Moyes second spell in charge of the east London club is proving to be his most impressive spell in the dugout since an ill-fated stint at Manchester United as Alex Ferguson s successor.

Indeed, in …

Benjamin Pavard s VAR-assisted goal proved decisive as Bayern Munich beat Tigres UANL 1-0 to clinch their second FIFA Club World Cup title.

Without the influential Thomas Muller and Jerome Boateng, Bayern laboured for much of Thursday s final in Qatar, with their usual efficiency in front of goal absent.

A harsh offside decision from the VAR denied Joshua Kimmich a first-half opener, but the technology came to Bayern s aid in the 59th minute when it instructed referee Esteban Ostojich to overturn the decision to disallow Pavard s goal for a Robert Lewandowski offside.

The first North American team to reach the Club World Cup final, Tigres had a hopeful penalty appeal dismissed shortly after Pavard s effort, but they failed to test Manuel Neuer as Bayern complet…

Inter coach Antonio Conte is confident a sustained improvement of the club s fortunes in Serie A will inspire a greater chance of success in Europe.

Since winning a Serie A and Champions League double in 2009-10 under Jose Mourinho, the club have failed to reclaim either prize, rarely even getting close.

The hiring of Conte has seen Inter take a step in the right direction, as they appear the only side capable of challenging the Serie A dominance of Juventus, who are chasing a ninth successive title.

Juve are a point clear of Inter at the summit after 13 matches, evidence of a marked improvement under Conte. But in the Champions League, life has been rather more difficult for the Nerazzurri.

Conte has often had to field criticism of his effectiveness in …
