Ex-Real Madrid coach Xabi Alonso set to take Chelsea managerial job: Report

Xabi Alonso is set to be named Chelsea coach after reaching an agreement with the Premier League club, a person with knowledge of the situation told the Associated Press on Saturday. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the appointment has not been publicly announced. Alonso talked with Chelsea in the past week and is expected to sign a four-year contract. It would be the Spaniard's first job since lasting less than eight months at Real Madrid. Alonso left Madrid by mutual consent in January after poor results and widespread media reports that he lost control of the locker room. Despite the short tenure at the Bernabeu Stadium, Alonso's reputation remained high across Europe after leading Bayer Leverkusen to a German league and cup double and breaking Bayern Munich's dominance of the Bundesliga. Chelsea has been searching for a new coach since firing Liam Rosenior last month. Rosenior was the second coach to be fired since the turn of the year following the departur

Former Premier League winners Leicester City relegated to third division

Former Premier League champion Leicester will be playing in the third tier of English soccer next season. Leicester, which sealed the unlikeliest title win of the Premier League era in 2016 at odds of 5,000-1, needed a victory Tuesday to maintain hope of avoiding relegation but drew 2-2 with Hull. The midlands club, which also won the FA Cup in 2021 and played in England's top flight last season, is second to last in the second-tier Championship. In a statement to fans, Leicester chairman Aiyawatt Srivaddhanaprabha, said responsibility sat with him. "There are no excuses," he said. "We have experienced the highest highs and now the lowest lows, and the pain is shared by all of us. I am truly sorry for the disappointment we have caused." Relegation comes after Leicester was docked six points in February for breaching the English Football League's financial rules when it earned promotion in the 2023-24 season. Earlier this month, it lost its bid to overturn that punishment, leaving

Man City close gap on Arsenal in Premier League with 3-0 win over Chelsea

Manchester City issued a huge statement of intent in the race for the Premier League title with a 3-0 win at Chelsea. Pep Guardiola's team moved to within six points of leader Arsenal ahead of next weekend's top of the table clash between the two teams. City also has a game in hand. Nico O'Reilly, Marc Guehi and Jeremy Doku all scored in a blistering second-half performance at Stamford Bridge on Sunday as City took full advantage of Arsenal's shock defeat to Bournemouth on Saturday. "We know that we still have everything in our hands," Doku said. Tottenham's survival fight took another blow after a 1-0 loss to Sunderland left it rooted in the relegation zone. In coach Roberto De Zerbi's first game in charge, Spurs fell to a 16th league loss of the season. Its 14-game winless run in the league dates back to Jan. 1. Nordi Mukiele's deflected shot sealed the game at the Stadium of Light and plunged Tottenham's campaign deeper into crisis. Tottenham is two points adrift of safety wi

Premier League: Arsenal falls to Bournemouth; Man City back into title race

Arsenal's Premier League title bid was hit by a stunning 2-1 loss to Bournemouth in London on Saturday. The league leader blew the chance to move 12 points clear of second-placed Manchester City after losing for the third time in four games in all competitions. "It's a big punch in the face," Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta told broadcaster TNT Sports. "It has to hurt, and you have to take it on the chin." Alex Scott struck a 74th-minute winner at Emirates Stadium to pile pressure on Arsenal ahead of next week's top-of-the-table clash at City. Arsenal has played two more games than City, which travels to Chelsea on Sunday and could close the gap to six points. "There are no gray areas now," Arteta said. "You stand up and go for the fight, or you're out and that's it." Arsenal's is slumping at the worst time. Defeats to City in the English League Cup final and to second-division Southampton in the FA Cup ended its pursuit of a quadruple of trophies. It beat Sporting Lisbon 1-0 in th

Brighton hand Liverpool 2-1 defeat to extend Premier League slump

Liverpool's troubles in the Premier League intensified with a 2-1 loss at Brighton on Saturday, leaving the stuttering defending champions on a three-match winless run and under threat of dropping out of the Champions League qualification spots. Danny Welbeck scored twice for Brighton at Amex Stadium, either side of Milos Kerkez's equalizer for Liverpool in its latest disjointed display under manager Arne Slot. Liverpool has taken just one point from its last three league games and is in fifth place, one point ahead of sixth-place Chelsea ahead of its match at Everton later. Like last season, the top five finishers in the Premier League are expected to qualify for the Champions League. To add to Liverpool's woes, striker Hugo Ekitike hobbled off in the eighth minute with a left leg problem and joined an injury list that also includes Mohamed Salah and Alisson Becker, who got hurt this week. Few could have expected Liverpool's title defense to be so underwhelming when the club spent

Fernandes impresses but Manchester United held to 2-2 draw by Bournemouth

Bruno Fernandes got a goal and an assist and Harry Maguire marked his return to the England squad by getting a red card as Manchester United drew 2-2 at Bournemouth in the Premier League on Friday. After a dull first half, Fernandes, so often United's saviour, put the visitor ahead from the penalty spot an hour in. Ryan Christie equalized for Bournemouth with a perfectly executed low shot six minutes later. Fernandes' in-swinging corner was headed into his own goal by James Hill under pressure from Maguire at the far post. Then with 12 minutes remaining Maguire - who hours earlier was named in Thomas Tuchel's squad for pre-World Cup friendlies against Uruguay and Japan - was red-carded for bringing down Evanilson in the box. Teenage Bournemouth forward Junior Kroupi converted the penalty to make it 2-2. The home side threw everything at its more illustrious visitor during a frantic final push but could not get a winner. Instead, it was a fifth consecutive draw for the Cherries, w
