After 3 years in Turin with the Bianconeri, Cristiano Ronaldo has left Juventus and joined Manchester United.   Massimiliano Allegri, in a press conference on Friday, confirmed that the player had decided to leave Juventus, saying that he didn’t plan to play for them again, and a move to Manchester City had seemed the most likely.

A statement released by the Premier League side read: “Manchester United is delighted to confirm that the club has reached agreement with Juventus for the transfer of Cristiano Ronaldo, subject to agreement of personal terms, visa and medical. “Cristiano, a five-time Ballon d’Or winner, has so far won over 30 major trophies during his career, including five UEFA Champions League titles, four FIFA Club World Cups, seven league titles in England, Spain and Italy, and the European Championship for his native Portugal. “...

Latest Chelsea news includes reaction to Hakim Ziyech's brace against Tottenham on Wednesday night, the attacking midfielder has looked sharp in pre-season Chelsea could boast one of the most exciting attacking options across Europe, let alone the Premier League next season. In Thomas Tuchel 's preferred 3-4-2-1 formation, there are always three spots available in attack. Those slots were filled by Mason Mount, Timo Werner and Kai Havertz in last season's Champions League final win over Manchester City - a game that saw the former assist the latter for the only goal of the game. But such is Tuchel's luxury that he can also call upon the likes of Christian Pulisic, Callum Hudson-Odoi and potentially Romelu Lukaku to fill those roles when the 2021/22 season gets underway. It's no secret that Chelsea are keen to sign a new centre-forward to solve their well-documented goalscoring issues from last season that saw them dominate many games without being ruthle...

Nigeria has suspended one of its most highly respected police officers after he was indicted in the US on money laundering charges. Deputy commissioner Abba Kyari is accused of taking bribes from Nigerian Instagram celebrity Ray Hushpuppi, who has pleaded guilty to money laundering in the US. Mr Kyari has denied the allegations.

Hushpuppi, whose real name is Ramon Abbas, posed as real estate developer in Dubai and posted photos of his lavish lifestyle on Instagram, where he had 2.5m followers. He was charged in the US following his extradition from Dubai last year. Kristi Johnson, acting director of the FBI's Los Angeles office, said Hushpuppi was one of the "most high-profile money launderers in the world". His "celebrity status and abil...
