I am delighted to be signing for Chelsea, it is a proud moment for me to be joining this great club," said the German international.
Other federations wisely opted for a stop for the next few days. I believe it is the duty of the president of the FIGC without waiting for the first case of [player] contagion. On Saturday, AIC president Damiano Tommasi initially called for a suspension of football saying there is "a risk for players" and "we must take all precautions". Parma's Serie A match against SPAL kicked off 75 minutes late after Spadafora requested the league was suspended with immediate effect.

Sixty-six non-league clubs have sent an open letter to the Football Association, calling for it to "urgently" reconsider the decision to expunge their seasons. Some MPs have also told clubs they will write to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport asking for intervention in what one described as a "disappointing" decision. It was announced last week that football in England below the National League's three divisions would end immediately with results expunged.
Long, starting a league match for only the second time this season, nearly grabbed his first goal of the campaign but prodded an effort wide from 12 yards in the second half. Ings was unlucky to not grab his second and Southampton's third when he did well to control Nathan Redmond's pass on his chest and then, under pressure from two City defenders, volleyed just wide.
The Premier League side were fortunate that Pompey didn’t take advantage of any of their opportunities, before Sokratis scored to change the complexion of the contest.

I'd be very reluctant to lose a player of that quality. According to David Ornstein at The Athletic, United’s chances of signing King will hinge on whether Eddie Howe can sign a replacement, with Hull striker Jarrod Bowen an option but he is likely heading to West Ham instead. The Norway international will be well known to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, starting his career at United and making two appearances for the club before a free transfer to Blackburn in January 2013.

Paine hoped it would not be pushed back too far and said he thought players would favour playing catch-up to finish it as planned with a final between the top two teams at Lord's on June 10, 2021.

My time with Fiorentina was a brilliant experience, on and off the pitch, so I have no regrets at all. Deadline-day confusion - and disappointment Mancini and Richards won the Premier League together at Manchester City in 2012The following deadline day, in January 2015, I was almost on the move again - but this time the move did not happen. My old boss at Manchester City, Roberto Mancini, was in charge of Inter Milan.
His physique is still bafflingly large for a professional athlete, but against Wolves he did an exceptional job of keeping Adama Traore quiet for much of the match.

Arsenal can’t afford to dally, to pussyfoot around or give Freddie Ljungberg a chance. He may be a favourite with Arsenal fans as a player but to manage Arsenal you need a bit more about you and a bit more experience. There are good managers out there. Go after somebody. Be proactive. Welcome to a new week It's Monday morning but there's still one instalment of the weekend's Premier League action, a huge London derby at the London Stadium as beleaguered Arsenal take on beleaguered West Ham.
West Brom are in fine form on their travels, with the best points per game record on the road this term. The visitors have won five of their last six trips to nil, while they come into this one with four straight victories away from home. Following that run, we are going with West Brom to win this clash against the out of form Latics.
Hannover U19 and Union Berlin U19 will face each other in the upcoming match in the Junioren Bundesliga. Hannover U19 this season have the following results: 10W, 3D and 5L.

Bochum will play against Heidenheim in the 2 Bundesliga of Germany on Saturday. Bochum are currently 15th in the table and not far away from relegation zone. Their last two games finished in Draw against sandhausen and Darmstadt before covid break. While Heidenheim are currently fourth in the table. They Defeated Karlsruher by 3-1 the last game. But three of the last five Heidenheim matches at home finished in Draw. In the last three head to head matches Heidenheim has three and Bochum has two wins but Bochum won the last two head to head matches . I'm expecting Draw here .
Instead of the 10% allocation as stipulated in Football League regulations, City received 3,000 tickets for the game, with United getting around 2,800 for the return leg at Etihad Stadium on 29 January. The clubs took the decision following a number of incidents that took place when the sides met last month, when United midfielder Fred appeared to be racially abused by a City supporter. It is also understood at the previous semi-final, there were flashpoints that made the clubs wary of the consequences of a repeat.

Malaga have decided to sack Victor Sanchez del Amo for disciplinary reasons," the club said in a statement, adding that they had been unable to agree to a mutual parting with the coach.
He played so, so well. What happened (after the Norwich match) was clear, almost nothing happened. So I think he's ready. Before I arrived he wasn't playing much, he has to play tomorrow. We go with him again. Spurs, seventh in the table, have lost their last four matches in all competitions, including their penalty shootout defeat to Norwich, and are in danger of missing out on a top-four spot and Champions League qualification.
The newly promoted club, having won just one of their last six Premier League matches, find themselves 15th in the standings, only a point above the relegation zone but knowing that things can change very quickly at the moment. In fact, they are only four points off the top half of the table, so it’s still all to play for.

Only 17% of Rio Ave’s away games have seen both teams score and Portimonense have only kept clean sheets in 17% of their home games, while Rio Ave have kept clean sheets in 33% of their away games. A majority of the visitor’s wins this season have been obtained with a one-goal margin (3 wins), and that is another reason why we have backed a narrow 1-0 victory for Rio Ave on Friday night.
Most recently they gave Liverpool a good game Anfield earlier in the season, before losing late on, as well as holding them earlier this year before Brendan Rodgers took charge. But this Reds team is a different animal, which is why I am tipping them to go to King Power Stadium and win to extend their lead at the top of the table even further. If I am right, that would all but end Leicester's title hopes but they would obviously still be well placed to finish in the top four.

Benfica are clear favorites going to this game. They will be under pressure to collect the three points after ceding much ground in the last few league matches. With Porto also competing for the title, they know this is not a game they can drop points in. They have the right form and have been dominant over Portimonense, which should give them the impetus. Benfica have scored in each of their 12 away matches, at least twice in eight of them and will hope to cash in on Portimonense’s poor scoring and attack forms. Portimonense haven’t scored in five of their last 10 league matches, and in three of their last five home games in the league. Placing that against Benfica’s scoring form, we are going for a 2-0 win for Benfica.
We’re confident that Torino will win on Thursday and we have predicted a final scoreline of 2-1. The hosts might not have the best of home records this season but they are up against a Genoa side that are still searching for their first away win and a team they have beaten in their last four encounters. Torino might not be enjoying their best season domestically but they have outperformed Genoa in all departments so far and we expect that trend to continue on Thursday which will see the home side progress through to the next round of the Coppa Italia.
Not bad. Injured for the semi-final win over England in 1996, he returned to skipper the side to victory at Wembley. Gerd Muller (West Germany) - 2 apps, 4 goals. Tournaments played in: 1972. Best finish: Winner (1972)If you're only going to play in two games at the Euros because of the format at the time, may as well score twice in the semi-final and twice in the final. Iconic. Cristiano Ronaldo (Portugal) - 21 apps, 9 goals.
Hearts' plight was by far and away the highlight for Hibs fans. Christian Doidge came good and finished with 12 league goals, the first Hibs striker to hit double figures in the Premiership since Griffiths. Hibs were too timid and too easy to score against all season, conceding 49 times, the highest number of any of the top nine clubs. They're missing some steel and some resilience, but unlike their dear friends across the city, they got themselves through a tough patch and they'll be glad of that small mercy.
Dortmund were finding it difficult to earn wins away from home at the beginning of the season. However, in recent weeks, they have rectified their poor away form. Dortmund have now won each of their last two Bundesliga away games. We feel that it is difficult to expect anything but another Dortmund win in Friday's game.

Video - 'Not yet!' - Ronaldo jokes about Messi dinner01:49 And though Ronaldo swapped Real for Juventus two years ago, Messi believes the longevity of their battle in Spain made their meetings extra special.

Jenas: "I was 19 in this game and had just moved to Newcastle. Having moved from Forest, did I understand how big this game was? Probably not. They probably protected me a bit. But as soon as I stepped out of that tunnel, I knew how big that game was. The roar you get when you come out for that game is unbelievable. For it to be my first game and be on the winning side and play well, it all worked out.
Eibar's home record this season isn't exactly sparkling with three wins and three defeats from six and they were crushed 0-4 last tie out at Ipurua by Real Madrid. Nonetheless, Los Armeros take on an Alaves side this weekend who have claimed just one point from six outings on the road this term and who are without a win in their last 11 away games. Whilst we expect a close tussle in this all-Basque clash, we're forecasting an Eibar triumph and more travelling woe for Babazorros.

Home form has been the key to the success of Isloch Minsk this season. Four wins out of five on home soil and not a single point on their travels. This is another good chance to get three more home points as they host bottom-of-the-table Belshina. Their opponents are in deep relegation trouble with two points from seven games and only five goals scored. 13 have been conceded by them and the tip here is for a home win with Isloch ahead at both half and full time.
Leicester City crashed to a 4-1 defeat at Bournemouth on Sunday and need to get back into winning ways. With three fixtures remaining, they are down to fifth in the Premier League and host Sheffield United who are seventh. Sunday was a bad day for City and Monday had mixed news for them. The morning saw City win their appeal, meaning Leicester have to finish in the top four if they want Champions League football next season.
Fortuna Sittard and Vitesse both took advantage of the winter break to play a couple of friendlies to keep their players match fit and we are expecting a competitive ninety minutes between the pair on Saturday. Games between these two clubs have tended to produce plenty of goals over the years, with five of the duos’ last seven encounters seeing over 2.5 goals scored. Five of Fortuna Sittard’s and four of Vitesse’s last six matches have also produced over 2.5 goals, so you can see why we are expecting plenty of goals from this weekends’ clash.
