Marco Silva would like Fabio Carvalho to stay at Fulham next season

But he’s admitted it’s unlikely.

He said: “I don’t have news about it. If you ask me if I would like to keep him here, I’m 100 per cent sure but it looks like it will not be possible.

“About next season, if he will not be our football player it is difficult for me. I can’t speak about it about the situation.”

Carvalho is set to join Liverpool this summer.

Newcastle’s Callum Wilson ‘fully charged’ after four months out

Newcastle United’s Callum Wilson has said he is “fully charged” as he prepares to return from a calf injury that has ruled him out for four months.

Wilson hasn’t played since the 1-1 draw with Manchester United on December 27, when he sustained the injury and was withdrawn after 45 minutes.

Wilson and Kieran Trippier, who sustained a foot injury in January, were included in Newcastle’s warm-weather training camp in Dubai in March, where Eddie Howe said both were “on schedule” in their recovery.

The £65m loan to buy Burnley – and what it means if they go down

Burnley could be in trouble if they are relegated to the Championship as they have a £65 million loan hanging over their heads should they drop down.

The Turf Moor side are currently 16th but they were just two points ahead of 18th-placed Everton who have a game in hand on their relegation rivals. I’m sure there will be plenty more twists and turns as the league campaign reaches its climax.

Real Madrid just know how to win the Champions League. Man City do not

Should Pep Guardiola be blamed for the defeat or are Real Madrid just the kings of Europe?

Guardiola is coming under fire for some of his substitutions but sometimes you just have to praise the conquerors rather than criticise the side that goes out.

Mohamed Salah wants revenge

The 2018 Champions League final between Liverpool and Real Madrid was somewhat controversial as Mohamed Salah had to be replaced in the 31st minute after dislocating his shoulder following a challenge by Sergio Ramos.

Loris Karius was at fault for two of Real Madrid’s goals in Liverpool’s 3-1 defeat but it was later confirmed the goalkeeper had suffered concussion after a challenge by Ramos.

That’s why Salah has said his side “have a score to settle”.

There is only one place to start

You might have woken up thinking you dreamt up Real Madrid’s heroics last night but it was in fact real.

Real Madrid are through to the Champions League final where they will take on Liverpool in Paris on May 28.
