Very good call by West Ham replacing Mateus Fernandes with Gustavo Sá 👏 Solid move!

Bayern Munich have entered the race for Jules Koundé, according to reports.

The French defender is attracting interest from across Europe, with Bayern identifying him as a key target to strengthen the back line ahead of the new season.

Barcelona are reluctant to lose one of their most reliable defenders, meaning any deal would likely require a significant offer. Bayern’s interest is real, but negotiations are still at an early stage. 🔴🇫🇷

@SkySportsNews Paraguay was fouling non-stop, proper dirty stuff. France stayed calm and handled it well though.

Arsenal are preparing an improved offer for Bruno Guimarães after an initial approach was rejected.

Mikel Arteta is still pushing for another top-level midfielder, and Guimarães would bring elite press resistance, ball progression and defensive intensity to Arsenal’s engine room.

Newcastle’s stance remains clear: they do not want to sell. The coming weeks will show whether Arsenal are willing to test that resolve. 🔴⚪️

West Ham have reached an agreement to sign Gustavo Sá from Famalicão.

The 21-year-old Portuguese midfielder is regarded as one of the country’s brightest talents and adds creativity, ball-carrying and long-term upside to the Hammers’ rebuild following relegation.

A smart investment with promotion and the future in mind. ⚒️🇵🇹

Cape Verde went out, but they leave the World Cup with their name bigger than when they arrived.

A 3-2 defeat to Argentina in extra time is not a footnote. It is proof of a team that refused to shrink against a giant, attacked with courage, and made one of the tournament favourites suffer until the end.

Historic run. Real pride. 🇨🇻

Nathan Aké is set to become a Fenerbahçe player.

The Turkish club have announced an agreement with the Dutch international, bringing an end to his six-year spell at Manchester City.

A versatile left-footed defender with elite experience, Aké arrives as a major addition to strengthen Fenerbahçe’s back line ahead of the new season.

✨Stoppage-time heroics from Gonçalo Ramos!
Rises between two defenders and plants the perfect header to send Portugal through. Clutch. 🇵🇹

Chelsea are exploring a move for Maxence Lacroix. 🔵

Reports suggest the Blues are considering a player-plus-cash deal for the Crystal Palace defender as they continue to assess defensive reinforcements.

Lacroix’s pace, recovery speed and ability to defend large spaces make him an attractive profile for a high defensive line.

No agreement has been reached at this stage, but talks are being monitored.

HEART. DRAMA. CHAOS. 🇵🇹

Portugal are through after a dramatic 2-1 win over Croatia, but the final whistle will be remembered for one huge moment.

Croatia thought they had forced extra time with a stoppage-time equaliser, only for VAR to rule it out for offside after a lengthy review. A brutal decision that sparked huge protests and left Croatian players devastated.

Gonçalo Ramos proved to be the hero, Cristiano Ronaldo kept his World Cup dream alive, and Portugal now set up a blockbuster Round of 16 clash against Spain.

Love it or hate it, that’s knockout football. One decision can change everything.

[Bit of Football @bitoffootball_]

Why is Portugal just pinging it between the centre backs and full backs with literally no one dropping between the lines?? Croatia are sitting compact and organised, we need players actually moving into the pockets and half-spaces to receive it. This is so slow and predictable 😩

@centredevils @JacobsBen Can United afford to let this one slip?

[Bit of Football @bitoffootball_]

PSG have made Eli Junior Kroupi their top attacking target this summer as they prepare to replace Gonçalo Ramos.

Luis Enrique is said to view the 20-year-old Bournemouth forward as a long-term fit for his project, but any deal will be difficult. Bournemouth are reluctant to sell and are reportedly demanding around €100m.

Nothing is agreed at this stage. PSG’s interest is real, but negotiations are expected to be complicated.
