Joe Burrow MNF Spotlight: Player Props for Monday Night Football Week 17

According to a recent report from Sky Italy, Antonee Robinson has completed his medical and is now on the verge of being confirmed as an AC Milan player. 

The Italian giants had previously agreed on a deal for the English-American starlet that was said to be worth around £10 million, or at the very least, could rise to that in the future. 

The Wigan Athletic defender has been turning heads for a while now, but even the most optimistic of Latics fans probably didn’t expect a club the size of Milan to come in for him this soon. 

Robinson made his move to Wigan permanent last year after spending time on loan there from Everton and hasn’t looked back ever since. 

The expectation and hope is that the 22-year-old will be given the sort of time h…

Gareth Southgate has indicated an ongoing lack of game time at Manchester United could impact Harry Maguire’s international role as the England boss braces for summer movement in his squad.

Monday’s 7-0 Old Trafford annihilation of North Macedonia made it four wins from as many Group C games, meaning it is a case of when rather than if their place at Euro 2024 is secured.

June’s matches were played out against a backdrop of talk about England players’ club future, with injured Jude Bellingham completing a big-money move to Real Madrid during a camp that ended with Arsenal’s club-record offer for West Ham skipper Declan Rice.

Brazil have progressed to the Round of 16 of the 2022 Qatar World Cup as Group H winners despite a 1-0 defeat to Cameroon on Friday evening.

Tite’s side had kicked off their 2022 Qatar World Cup campaign with a 2-0 win against Serbia at the Lusail Iconic Stadium in Lusail.

Brazil then edged past Switzerland 1-0 at Stadium 974 in Doha.

With the former world champions having already qualified for the last-16 stage, Brazil head coach Tite decided to make a number of changes to his team.

Tottenham Hotspur forward Richarlison and Manchester United midfielder Casemiro were among the players who were rested.

Arsenal striker Gabriel Jesus, former Barcelona right-back Daniel Alves and Liverpool defensive midfielder Fabinho were among the players who sta…

Bayern Munich head coach Hansi Flick says he can totally understand why reported Liverpool target Thiago Alcantara would want a move to the Premier League.

Thiago is out of contract next year and Bayern chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge last month confirmed the midfielder will leave the Bundesliga champions.

Liverpool are said to be eager to sign the former Barcelona man, while Paris Saint-Germain have also been linked with the Spain international.

Bayern boss Flick suggested a switch to England is more likely for the 29-year-old and expressed his disappointment that he wants to depart.

West Ham United have opened talks with Sevilla over the possibility of signing striker Youssef En-Nesyri, according to Sky Sports. The negotiations are at an early stage and there has been no concrete bid from the Hammers for Sevilla to consider as of yet.

Having risen through the youth ranks and reached the senior level at Malaga, En-Nesyri spent two years with Leganes before signing for Sevilla in a €20 million deal in 2020. Since then, he s gone on to make 158 appearances for his current club in all competitions, scoring 55 goals and producing five assists. The 26-year-old Morocco international is under contract at Sevilla until the summer of 2025.

Meanwhile, Michail Antonio has been linked with West Ham exit, which would explain the Hammers desire to add a new str…

Eden Hazard has undergone the surgery that could clear the way for the Real Madrid star to find his best form in LaLiga.

The 31-year-old Belgian, who was a Premier League superstar with Chelsea, has had major issues with his right ankle in recent years.

Madrid will be hoping that the best is still to come from Hazard, who has endured a torrid three seasons in LaLiga to date, struggling to do himself justice since a big-money transfer.

It is envisaged that the successful removal on Tuesday of an osteosynthesis plate in his right fibula might afford Hazard greater comfort, freeing him up to have a greater on-pitch impact.

Hazard broke the ankle while on international duty with Belgium in 2017 and required a small metal plate to be implanted as a healing a…

Chelsea coach Thomas Tuchel has revealed N Golo Kante will miss Wednesday s Champions League clash with Juventus after testing positive for coronavirus.

The France international made his sixth appearance of the season on Saturday when playing an hour of Chelsea s 1-0 defeat to Manchester City in the Premier League.

However, Kante has since contracted COVID-19 and will serve a period of isolation, ruling him out of the Blues European tie with Juve and league clash with Southampton ahead of the international break.

Speaking at a pre-match news conference on Tuesday, Tuchel also confirmed Christian Pulisic, Reece James and Mason Mount will not make the trip to Turin because of injury problems.

Juventus will also be without some key players at the Allianz St…

Atletico Madrid are interested in signing Borussia Moenchengladbach forward Marcus Thuram in the summer transfer window, according to . The France international is out of contract at Bundesliga club Moenchengladbach at the end of the season, and former La Liga champions Atletico want to secure his services on a free transfer in the summer of 2023.

Thuram has been on the books of Moenchengladbach since 2019 when he joined from French club Guingamp. The forward has established himself as one of best forwards in the Bundesliga, and there is no surprise that UEFA Champions League regulars Atletico are keen on signing him.

The 25-year-old, who played for France at the 2022 Qatar World Cup, made 19 starts and two substitute appearances in the Bundesliga for Moenchengladbach s…

Gareth Southgate feels privileged to be anywhere near a century of matches at the England helm as he prepares for a repeat of the fixture where it all began for him seven years ago.

Having rebuffed the Football Association’s initial approach after Euro 2016, the then Under-21s boss was parachuted into the hotseat after Sam Allardyce’s swift, ignominious exit.

Southgate’s first game in temporary charge was a World Cup qualifier against Malta, with Daniel Sturridge and Dele Alli securing a 2-0 win in October 2016.

When Thomas Tuchel arrived at Chelsea in January 2021, there were some raised eyebrows and curiosity as to whether the German could succeed where his predecessor, club legend Frank Lampard, had arguably failed.

It did not take long for Tuchel to do as another German coach had done on arrival in England and turn doubters into believers, leading the Blues to a top four finish (just), an FA Cup final and a Champions League triumph.

However, with the 48-year-old set to celebrate a year in charge at Stamford Bridge next week, he is experiencing perhaps his first rocky period in England, having won just one of his last seven Premier League games and sitting 12 points behind leaders Manchester City having played a game more.

Before Tuchel blows out the candles on his an…
