Montoya arrives in Milan ahead of Inter move

Eric Dier has signed a new five-year deal at Tottenham Hotspur, .

The twenty-two year old moved to White Hart Lane from Sporting CP in the summer of 2014, and has since racked up ninety appearances in all competitions, scoring six goals.

Having spent the first season playing mainly as a defender he was used as a defensive midfielder last season and played an integral part as the North London club achieved their highest placed finish since the inception of the Premier League.

Internationally, he has been capped twelve times for England with one of his two goals for his country coming at Euro 2016 as the Three Lions drew with Russia in their opening game of the tournament.

Chelsea boss Antonio Conte has ruled John Terry out of Saturday s Premier League clash with Arsenal at Emirates Stadium.

The veteran centre-back was forced to miss last Friday s 2-1 defeat to Liverpool after picking up an ankle injury in the 2-2 draw with Swansea City.

Terry returned to training this week, but Conte says he will not be ready for the game against Arsene Wenger s men.

John didn t recover. He s working, but he didn t recover for the game against Arsenal, he said.

I don t know [when he ll be back]. In this case, it depends on what the player feels.

Chelsea s strong start to the season has been undermined by defensive frailties in recent games, with Conte s side conceding twice in each of their last three fixtures in all competition…

Josef Martinez broke an MLS record by scoring in a 10th consecutive game for Atlanta United on Sunday.

The Venezuelan forward headed in a Julian Gressel cross for the opening goal – and MLS record – in the 42nd minute against New York City at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

Martinez continuing his hot streak meant he surpassed the previous best mark he briefly shared with Portland Timbers star Diego Valeri.

The 26-year-old has netted 14 times during his run, which started in May, to close in on Los Angeles FC star Carlos Vela atop the MLS goalscoring charts.

Steven Taylor has officially completed his move to Wellington Phoenix. The 32-year-old spent more than twenty years of his life on the books at Newcastle United before eventually departing in 2016, and since then, he s been bouncing around a series of clubs such as Ipswich Town and Peterborough United. Now, however, it s time for him to start a new chapter as he approaches what will likely be the final few years of his playing career.

Taylor was an imposing defender who always seemed to be on the verge of breaking through to that next level, but for one reason or another could never quite manage it. He played for England throughout the youth system but was never able to earn a call-up to the official senior team, although his impact on the game and Newcastle United will likely …

Market: Leicester win

Odds: 2/5 @

Simply looking to widen their buffer at the top of the Championship standings on Tuesday night, Leicester will welcome Swansea to the King Power.

Starting with the hosts, while Leicester might have lost their Premier League status last season, the Foxes are certainly breezing their way to an immediate top-flight return. Opening Tuesday’s showdown at the King Power holding a commanding seven-point buffer over the chasing pack, Enzo Maresca’s side have also broken a string of Championship records. Last seen over the weekend extending on their FA Cup adventure as they claimed a 3-0 romp at home against Birmingham, the former Manchester City coach has seen his squad suffer just a single defeat from any of their previous 14 strai…

It is officially true, FIFA have gone totally mad. The FIFA medical chief, Michael D’Hooghe, has said Referees should show more red cards to help curb violent play.

Riches

He also went on to make a link between violent play and the financial riches on offer to players. He produced a DVD of some of football’s worst tackles in recent years to show the delegates at the FIFA medical congress.

We see more violent fouls over the whole world, as games gain in financial importance. Some of the fouls send shivers down your spine. We see more violent fouls over the whole world. The referees have the key. They are the only ones who can impose an immediate sanction. They do not do it often enough and there is a lack of uniformity.
