Klopp insists Liverpool still have work to do ahead of Villarreal clash

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp insists the Reds still have work to do to secure a spot in the Champions League final, and expects Villarreal to try with all they have in Tuesday s semi-final second leg.

The Reds are still chasing a historic quadruple after beating the Yellow Submarine 2-0 in last week s first leg at Anfield, with goals from Andrew Robertson and Sadio Mane putting Klopp s team on the brink of a third Champions League final during his seven-year tenure.

Klopp s team produced a dominant performance at Anfield to restrict Villarreal to no attempts on target, and could become the first team since Porto in 2003-04 (against Deportivo La Coruna) to not concede a single shot on target across a two-legged Champions League semi-final.

Everton managerial candidate Pereira: ´If they want me, they must call me´

Vitor Pereira has confirmed he has been interviewed by Everton over the vacant managerial position and declared: If they want me, they must call me.

Everton sacked Rafael Benitez earlier in January after a dismal run of one win in 13 league games left them six points above the relegation zone.

That cushion has now been reduced to four points after Everton lost to Aston Villa on Saturday, with Duncan Ferguson having taken interim charge.

A host of names have been linked with the job, though all with vastly different profiles. Former Toffees boss Roberto Martinez, sacked in 2016, was an initial candidate, but the Belgian FA rebuffed Everton s approach.

Fabio Cannavaro is also said to have been interviewed, similarly Frank Lampard. Wayne Rooney, meanwhile,…

The Sun and Daily Mail newspapers reported Brentford star Toney faces allegations of placing bets in the early stages of his career, before shooting to stardom.

AC Milan sack Giampaolo after just seven games

Marco Giampaolo has been sacked as head coach of AC Milan after just seven games in charge.

The Rossoneri have endured a difficult start to the campaign and not even a 2-1 win over Genoa on Saturday was enough to convince the board to keep Giampaolo.

After replacing Gennaro Gattuso at San Siro, Giampaolo was tasked with building on Milan s fifth-place finish in Serie A last season but his tenure got off to a poor start with a 1-0 defeat at Udinese on opening weekend.

Victories over Brescia and Hellas Verona followed, but a 2-0 derby defeat to Inter preceded losses against Torino and Fiorentina.

In a brief statement published on Tuesday, the club said: AC Milan announces it has relieved Mr. Marco Giampaolo from his position as coach of the first team.

Match commander David Duckenfield found not guilty of Hillsborough disaster manslaughter

Former South Yorkshire Police chief superintendent David Duckenfield has been found not guilty of gross negligence manslaughter over the deaths of 95 people in the 1989 Hillsborough disaster.

Following a retrial at Preston Crown Court, the jury returned its not guilty verdict on Thursd…

Slot happy with Liverpool squad despite Zubimendi snub

Arne Slot insists he is happy with his Liverpool squad ahead of their Premier League opener against Ipswich, despite missing out on midfielder Martin Zubimendi.

Slot takes charge of his first competitive game for the Reds at Portman Road on Saturday, but is in the dugout of the only side yet to sign a player this transfer window.

Liverpool had shown their interest in Real Sociedad s Zubimendi following his performances for Spain at Euro 2024, appearing poised to trigger his £51m release clause.

However, he rejected the move to Anfield, preferring to remain with La Real for the upcoming season after his impressive showings for club and country last year.

Zubimendi completed 1318 successful passes in La Liga last season, a total only bettered by Igor Zub…
