Tottenham captain Hugo Lloris labelled Spurs stunning Europa League elimination a disgrace and hinted at deeper issues within the club following their 3-0 loss to Dinamo Zagreb.

Spurs sensationally bowed out of the Europa League 3-2 on aggregate following Thursday s defeat to Croatian champions Dinamo after extra time in Zagreb.

The match went to extra time with Mislav Orsic completing his memorable hat-trick in the 106th minute to clinch Dinamo s last-16 triumph, with Spurs never in control after winning the opening leg 2-0.

We are all more than disappointed. It s just a disgrace, Spurs goalkeeper Lloris told BT Sport.

I hope everyone in the changing room feels responsible because it s a disgrace. The taste of the defeat tonight is more than painful. …

An Atletico Madrid fan group has called for the club to rule out signing Cristiano Ronaldo, saying he represents the antithesis of the team s values.

The Manchester United forward returned to training on Tuesday, having missed the pre-season tour of Asia and Australia, and is reportedly pushing to leave due to his desire to continue playing in the Champions League.

Suitors for Ronaldo s services have not been forthcoming, however, although Atletico have been linked with bringing the former Real Madrid superstar back to the Spanish capital.

Fans have made it clear they are not keen on the idea though, with Atletico s International Union of Fan Clubs (Union Internacional de Peñas Atletico de Madrid) issuing a statement on the matter.

In light of the poss…

Sergio Aguero will leave Manchester City at the end of the 2020-21 campaign, the club have confirmed.

Aguero is the club s record goalscorer with 257 goals and will bring to an end a glittering 10-year stint at the club when his contract expires in June.

He joined from Atletico Madrid in 2011 and has gone on to cement his position as one of the club s greatest ever players.

The Argentina international has won four Premier League titles, one FA Cup and five EFL Cups at City.

He is likely to win a fifth English top-flight crown this season, with City 14 points clear of second-place Manchester United, while they will also contest next month s EFL Cup final with Spurs.

Pep Guardiola knows he must not allow Diego Simeone s Atletico Madrid to smother Manchester City when the teams clash in the Champions League quarter-finals.

The City manager was impressed by how Atletico accounted for Manchester United in the previous round, preventing the Red Devils imposing their game on the second leg at Old Trafford.

A 1-0 win for Atletico carried Simeone s team through to the last eight as 2-1 aggregate winners, and now Guardiola and Simeone – arguably the two best coaches in world football – will go head to head on the touchline.

Guardiola believes Simeone has a job for as long as he wants it at Atletico, pointing to that security and board support as being telling in the success the club have had, notably in winning last season s LaL…

Yussuf Poulsen revelled in an amazing moment after RB Leipzig moved into the Champions League semi-finals.

Tyler Adams deflected 88th-minute strike lifted Leipzig to a 2-1 win over Atletico Madrid in the quarter-finals on Thursday.

A penalty from Joao Felix had earlier cancelled out Dani Olmo s opener in Lisbon, but Leipzig – founded just 11 years ago – advanced.

Poulsen, who arrived at the club in 2013, was delighted as Leipzig s rise continued, having been in the fifth tier in Germany in 2009-10.

You couldn t write a better story. It is a huge day and an amazing moment – we have to enjoy it, he said, via the club s website.

Another fantastic game is around the corner. We were the better team and are deservedly through to the semi-final. …

Werner on the Old Trafford radar

Suffering another Champions League collapse away at Galatasaray on Wednesday evening, have found themselves at the heart of real scrutiny this season.

While Erik ten Hag’s might have once again broken the bank over the summer, it has been suggested that the Premier League heavyweights could be set for another hectic January transfer window.

With former Atalanta marksman still waiting to open his Premier League account, it appears that Manchester United are seeking attacking reinforcements when the window opened up.

However, while might have struggled to find his feet since making a return to Bundesliga outfit RB Leipzig last year, it has been suggested that the Germany international could be handed a shock lifeline in Janua…

Barcelona head coach Ronald Koeman does not know if he will still be in charge of the club for next season.

The Catalan giants head into Saturday s final LaLiga match of 2020-21 against Eibar knowing they cannot finish any higher than third place.

After a mixed start to the season, a 19-match unbeaten run in the top flight propelled Barca back into title contention as leaders Atletico Madrid began to falter.

However, Koeman has overseen just three wins from their past eight league games, meaning they are five points behind Real Madrid and seven adrift of Atleti heading into matchday 38.

Barca s recent league form, coupled with their Champions League last-16 exit to Paris Saint-Germain, has left Koeman facing serious questions over his future despite win…

Market: Bolivar win

Odds: 4/11 @

Looking to officially book their Copa Libertadores knockout stage ticket with a final Group E statement, Bolivar will welcome Palestino to the Estadio Hernando Siles in the early hours of Wednesday.

Starting with the hosts, why Bolivar might have been disappointed as they had to settle for a Primera Division silver medal finish last season, the Blues have continued to shine on the Copa Libertadores stage. Mustering 10 points from their five Group G appearances and with one foot firmly placed in the knockout stage, Flavio Robatto’s men are rightfully pencilled in as a landslide contender here. Picking up some perfect momentum over the weekend as they cruised their way to a routine 4-0 romp against Santa Cruz while on Clausura, t…

Sancho completes his Dortmund return

Although might have only arrived at Old Trafford back in July 2021 for a fee of £73million, the England international has quickly found himself at the heart of a Manchester United nightmare.

At the centre of a major controversy this season after a public falling out with Erik ten Hag, the 23-year-old has not made a single appearance for the Premier League giants since August 26th.

With the former Ajax boss making it abundantly clear that Sancho has no part to play going forward, the one-time Manchester City starlet has completed a loan switch back to .

Enjoying what was a hugely successful spell during his four-year stay in rural Germany, Sancho certainly appears to be relishing a return to the German heavyweights.
