Tonight, only on talkSPORT, Leicester City travels to Elland Road to face Leeds United in a massive Championship encounter. The Foxes lead the table by nine points, but their title rivals can trim the distance to six with a key win. Last time out, Enzo Maresca’s team lost to Middlesbrough, and another setback today would be welcome news for fellow rivals. Three points for Daniel Farke’s side might be critical to their aspirations of automatic promotion, while Leicester’s dominance may be called into question. “Why is it so big for them but not for us?” he explained. “It’s a big…

That’s according to La Roma 24, which is relaying information from Sky Italy, which says ‘positive news arrives’ for the defender, who was forced to leave the pitch after receiving a nasty knock to the head in Roma’s match against Feyenoord.

Leeds United will meet Leicester City in the Championship on Friday night at Elland Road, and this is a huge game for them. The Whites sit second in the league, nine points behind the Foxes, but they have a fantastic opportunity here to close the deficit to three points. According to Sky Sports analyst David Prutton, if Leeds win tonight (February 23), the Championship crown may be a “very realistic target” for them. The Whites have been dominant in 2024, winning all of their games since the turn of the year. Daniel Farke’s team has won eight consecutive games, and…
He joined the team last summer and has yet to make an impact. Since their promotion back to the Premier League in May 2022, Nottingham Forest has displayed a scattergun attitude to the transfer market. Since winning the play-off final at Wembley, the Reds have added 34 new players, with owner Evangelos Marinakis spending over £200 million on new players in the hopes of establishing the club as a modern-day Premier League team. The club has uncovered several gems from all around the world, with youngsters Murillo, Danilo, and Nicolas Dominguez all entering since promotion, and the trio has proven…
BENJI SIEGRIST risks becoming one of football’s greatest underachievers. The big Celtic stand-by keeper has not played for the first team this season and has fallen to third place in Brendan Rodgers’ matchday squad. Joe Hart has been a fixture at No.1, while Scott Bain was chosen to fill in when the 36-year-old 75-cap England international was suspended for the Premiership visit to Motherwell, where a stoppage-time goal from Matt O’Riley secured the points in a dramatic 2-1 win in September last year. The veteran goaltender, who announced his retirement yesterday, was forced to sit out after receiving a ridiculous…
According to David Ornstein, Nottingham Forest will next learn the results of its profit and sustainability charge, followed by Everton’s second decision. On 22 February, an Athletic journalist claimed that, following the appeal procedure at Goodison Park, that will be the Premier League’s order of business. Ornstein went on to say that the ongoing speculation about the rulings is not beneficial to anyone, particularly the other Premier League clubs. In a Q&A for The Athletic, he stated: “I hear the Nottingham Forest case will come next, followed by Everton’s second charge, while some believe it is the other way around.…
According to Training Ground Guru, Martin Diggle will leave Liverpool and become the next Leeds United Academy Director at Elland Road. On Thursday, February 22, the website announced that he will replace Adam Underwood behind the scenes. In July 2023, Underwood, who had been Academy Manager since 2009, was elevated to Head of Football Operations. 49ers are making Leeds United a force to be reckoned with. Diggle brings nearly five years of experience as Liverpool’s Head of Coach Development, where he oversaw the development of coaches across the Academy, to his new post. His prior nine-year stint with the Football…
Joseph Paintsil has agreed to a £7 million move to LA Galaxy, months after admitting that he had rejected down Championship clubs Leeds United and Southampton. In actuality, The Saints may have only themselves to blame for missing out on the KRC Genk talisman in the summer of 2023. Joseph Paintsil observed how poorly Southampton handled the adaptation of his former Genk teammate Paul Onuachu, who was prolific in Belgium but starved for playing time at St Mary’s, so who could blame the winger for saying ‘thanks but no thanks’? Joseph Paintsil rejected both Leeds and Southampton. “There were many…
DAVID PRUTTON believes Leeds United are the clear favourites for tonight’s Championship clash against Leicester City at Elland Road. In terms of form, if you’ve won every game in 2024, you’re in good shape. Leicester’s defeat at home to Middlesbrough last weekend demonstrates that there is a way around them. However, you cannot ignore Leicester’s performance thus far, nor their nine-point lead. Leeds can close the gap to six points with a win, but Leicester has been the best team from the start, despite the fact that 2024 appears to be Leeds’ year so far. In my predictions, I’ve been…
