Hello football fans
Reece James has opened up on the likely heartache of missing out on the World Cup following the two-month injury he picked up against AC Milan.
In a story posted on his YouTube channel, James said: “I saw a surgeon and he told me I was going to be out for about two months. It’s obviously devastating, the World Cup isn’t only a month away.
“As a kid I always wanted to go and this is my first opportunity. I will do everything I can to be there but obviously I’m devastated, you know, the injury came at the wrong time.
Meanwhile, Cristiano Ronaldo is set to face backlash from fans following his mutiny against Tottenham.
Man United boss Erik ten Hag confirmed earlier today that Ronaldo refused to play in the 2-0 win and consequently took action by banishing him to the reserve.
Ten Hag said: “After Vallecano, I told him it was unacceptable. This is the second time, there are consequences.
“I sent a warning at the start of the season, next time there must be consequences otherwise when you live together when you play together, football is a team sport and you have to meet certain standards. And I have to control it.
“I’m the manager, I’m responsible for the high-level sporting culture here and I have to set standards and values and I have to control them.
Gabriel Magalhaes has signed a new long-term contract with Arsenal. He described it as a “dream” to play for the Gunners and said the club was his “home”.
Aston Villa will speak to Sporting Lisbon manager Ruben Amorim over his vacant managerial post.
Villa sacked Steven Gerrard after a 3-0 loss to Fulham, a game which also saw Douglas Luiz sent off.
However, the club confirmed earlier today that the suspension had been overturned on appeal.
