Gareth Southgate has played down the pressure on Real Madrid star Jude Bellingham to fire England to glory at Euro 2024.

The 20-year-old is basking in the afterglow of a dream first season in Spain, where he won La Liga with Real Madrid and was named the competition’s best player.

Everton s hopes of being rescued by a takeover by Roma owner Dan Friedkin are at an end after the club confirmed the American billionaire has ended his interest in buying the club.

Ancelotti confirms Liverpool target ‘will stay’ at Real Madrid as £25m alternative edges closer

Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti has confirmed that one of his star players from last season will remain at the club, despite the reported interest from elsewhere.

It s fair to say that Real Madrid have one of the most talented squads in world football with multiple world-class players in several positions.

It s no secret that Liverpool are in the market for a new goalkeeper and 

His contract in Spain is set to …
