With all eyes falling on the San Siro this weekend, Inter Milan will welcome defending champions Napoli to town on Sunday night.
Inter Milan
As for the visitors, suffering a Champions League collapse earlier in the week as they watched their European adventure come to an end at the hands of Atletico Madrid, Inter Milan must dust themselves down quickly. However, although the Nerrazzuri might have come under some real scrutiny on Wednesday night, Simone Inzaghi’s men are enjoying a history-making domestic romp this season. Turning their attention back to Serie A duties holding a remarkable 16-point buffer at the top of the table, the former Lazio boss has seen his squad gain a string of praise from across Italy’s elite. In fact, des…
Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag hopes his side’s dramatic FA Cup quarter-final win over arch-rivals Liverpool will prove to be the turning point of their season.
The Dutchman declared himself happy with his weekend after United snatched a 4-3 victory in time added on in extra time courtesy of Amad Diallo’s breakaway goal, having seen Tottenham and Aston Villa both drop points in the race for the top four in the Premier League.
Speculation about Ten Hag’s long-term position has increased since Sir Jim Ratcliffe bought a 27.7 per cent share of the club but the manager believes this victory could be pivotal.
And breathe was definitely one for the ages!

Alejandro Sabella will be hoping to see a more clinical Argentina when his side take on Slovenia on Saturday.
Despite picking up a 3-0 friendly win over Trinidad and Tobago on Wednesday, the South Americans squandered numerous opportunities to pile on the goals in Buenos Aires.
Only five of Argentina s 17 shots found the target in that match, which could prompt Sabella to rotate his front line for the nation s final FIFA World Cup warm-up.
Rodrigo Palacio, Lionel Messi and Ezequiel Lavezzi led the line for Argentina on Wednesday, but with the likes of Gonzalo Higuain waiting in the wings, Sabella may feel he has more potent attacking options at his disposal, although Sergio Aguero is a doubt with a thigh problem.
That said, it was Inter forward Palacio who opene…

Liverpool midfielder Jordan Henderson sees his long-term future at Anfield and said he is looking forward to signing a new deal.
Henderson joined Liverpool from Sunderland in 2011 and after initially struggling to make a significant impact, has hit his stride.
The 24-year-old started 35 Premier League matches last term for Liverpool and has been named the club s vice-captain this season.
Henderson has impressed again in the current campaign and is said to be close to a new deal after Daniel Sturridge signed a fresh five-year contract last week.

Ched Evans has pleaded to prospective employers for the chance to prove he can be a positive influence following his release from prison.
The former Sheffield United striker left jail last Friday after serving half of a five-year sentence for rape, though he remains on licence for the remainder of his term.
Evans continues to protest his innocence over the incident that took place in May 2011 and has polarised opinions with his plans to potentially return to the game.
League One side United denied speculation last weekend that Evans was poised to seal a return to Bramall Lane, although a section of the club s supporters were vocal in their support of the 25-year-old at Saturday s Yorkshire derby with Bradford City.
If and when Evans is given the second …

The move is subject to Morata agreeing personal terms on a five-year contract and completing a medical and is reported to be worth in the region of £70million.

Torino forward Andrea Belotti and Borussia Dortmund striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang were also among Antonio Conte s rumoured targets, with Morata initially said to have agreed to join United before they pounced for Lukaku.
Morata s arrival will ease concerns over any potential void left by Diego Costa, …
According to , Chelsea are eying a summer move for highly-rated goalkeeper Dean Henderson, who has spent this season on-loan at Sheffield United from Manchester United. The 22-year-old has been that impressive in his debut Premier League campaign that some are even talking about him replacing current United number one David de Gea next season. The Spaniard’s form has been inconsistent for the Red Devils, although it has improved in recent weeks.
