Cazorla: I´m happy at Arsenal

According to a recent report from L’Equipe, French club Bordeaux have made an enquiry regarding the possibility of signing Olivier Giroud from Chelsea. The Frenchman has failed to really find any kind of consistency at Stamford Bridge following his move from Arsenal, where he was viewed as one of the most underrated forwards in European football. Giroud played his part in helping France to win the 2018 FIFA World Cup last summer, but since then, he hasn’t been able to re-discover his old form. Giroud’s current deal with Chelsea is set to expire at the end of the current campaign, although Chelsea do have an option to extend it by twelve months.

A return to Ligue 1 for the final few years of his time at the top of his game would certainly be a realistic prospect, and it’…

Gianluigi Donnarumma has moved to allay fears he will engineer a move away from AC Milan in January by insisting he is happy at the club.

The teenage goalkeeper has been jeered by Milan fans since reports emerged claiming his agent Mino Raiola was trying to terminate the four-year contract he signed last July.

Donnarumma is seen as the heir to Italy and Juventus icon Gianluigi Buffon and is believed to have drawn interest from LaLiga giants Barcelona and Real Madrid.

The 18-year-old returned from a groin injury that kept him out of the derby victory over Inter in the Coppa Italia in midweek and turned in an impressive display during a 1-1 draw at Fiorentina on Saturday, making a string of excellent saves on his 100th Milan appearance.

And I obviously had a few questions as well. You always sound each other out a bit to find out each other s plans.

I would like to ask [Lazio defender] Stefan de Vrij a…

Paris Saint-Germain boss Thomas Tuchel claims to be unaware and unconcerned about reports Neymar made a swift trip to Turin two days out from the Coupe de France final.

According to reports in Italy, Brazil star Neymar ventured out of Paris to attend an event alongside compatriot and Juventus winger Douglas Costa.

Erik Lamela s superb first Premier League goal earned Tottenham a 2-1 win over Burnley in an entertaining encounter at White Hart Lane.

The Argentinian, who arrived for a club-record fee from Roma prior to the 2013-14 campaign, had previously gone 25 league appearances without finding the net for Spurs, but he broke his duck in fine style on Saturday.

Lamela produced a sublime curling finish from 25 yards to net the winner in the 35th minute, after a strike of similar quality from Ashley Barnes had cancelled out Harry Kane s header.

Kane met Nacer Chadli s pinpoint delivery midway through the first half his 14th goal of the season in all competitions and third in as many matches.

Barnes netted the winner in Burnley s 1-0 victory over Southampton last wee…

Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers has signed a new long-term contract with the club.

Rodgers led Liverpool to the brink of their first top-flight title in 24 years earlier this month, with the Merseyside outfit eventually finishing second just two points adrift of champions Manchester City.

A season that saw Liverpool amass 84 points and 101 goals from their 38 Premier League games far exceeded expectations, and they will compete in the UEFA Champions League for the first time in five years next season.

Rodgers who took over from Kenny Dalglish in June 2012 has subsequently been rewarded by the club s hierarchy, and the Northern Irishman is thrilled to be staying at Anfield.

I am both humbled and privileged to be offered the chance to extend my stay at this great…
