You can’t help but feel the Argentinian with a penchant for red cards has arrived at his spiritual home with his move to Diego Simeone’s Atlético Madrid“He’s not that kind of player” is perhaps the greatest of the co-commentators’ meaningless banalities. Used shortly after a “nice guy” has scythed someone in half about a day after the ball has gone, it is by definition nonsense because if you have scythed someone in half about a day after the ball has gone, then you are indeed that kind of player.But I don’t recall ever hearing anyone saying “the thing is Clive/Brian, he is that kind of player”. I haven’t analysed every foul in Premier League history to tell if you those kinds of challenges are carried out by players all of us would consider to be “that kind of player” as opposed to the opposite – but the list of players with the most red cards suggests a pattern – Richard Dunne, Duncan Ferguson, Patrick Vieira with eight reds, Lee Cattermole and Roy Keane on seven, Vinnie Jones, Joey Barton and Alan Smith (obviously not that one) among those on six.

Ferran Torres appears close to becoming a new PSG player, which could open the door for Julian Alvarez to become Barcelona's new striker. Ferran Torres is on the verge of leaving Barcelona for PSG, according to journalist Fabrizio Romano, who confirmed the Spanish forward has already been authorized to travel for his medical in Paris. The deal is worth a guaranteed €50 million, with Barcelona and PSG now exchanging documents to finalize the move within the next 24 hours. Torres will not train with Barcelona in the interim, a clear sign the transfer is considered all but done on both ends. His departure leaves an opening in Barcelona’s forward line, one the club could look to fill with Julian Alvarez. The Argentine has been strongly linked with a move to Camp Nou for months, and Torres’ exit could accelerate those plans. With Alvarez as their main target, Barcelona are looking to reshape their attack for the new season, having already added Anthony Gordon, Karim Adeyemi, and Jesse Bisiwu. 🚨🔴🔵 BREAKING: Ferran Torres to Paris Saint-Germain, HERE WE GO! 💥Deal confirmed for World Cup final hero as Barça receive a fee worth €50m from PSG.Ferran only wanted Paris and the agreement has been sealed after being at final stages for several days. All done. pic.twitter.com/4siCHz3yIc— Fabrizio Romano (@FabrizioRomano) August 13, 2026 Julian Alvarez’s situation at Atlético Madrid Alvarez’s future at Atletico Madrid has become an increasingly tense storyline. The club has set his release clause at €500 million, with CEO Miguel Angel Gil Marin insisting there’s no scenario in which he leaves for less, despite Álvarez’s contract running through June 2030. Atletico have flatly rejected the idea of a sale, rejecting offers from Barcelona and Real Madrid, framing him as a non-negotiable piece of the squad heading into the new season. Things came to a head this week. After returning from preseason medical evaluations, Alvarez reportedly told the club not to count on him going forward, prioritizing a move to Barcelona above all else. Simeone, for his part, maintained that the decision rests with club executives — though Alvarez’s camp reportedly views the coach as the one person with enough influence to push the front office toward approving a deal. Whether that influence materializes remains to be seen, but with Ferran Torres’ exit freeing up both space and resources in Barcelona’s attack, the pieces around Alvarez’s potential move are shifting in a way that could eventually put pressure on Atletico’s hardline stance.
Former Chelsea manager Ruud Gullit (Picture: Getty) Ruud Gullit believes that Marcus Rashford’s return to Manchester United could prove to be the ‘best Premier League signing of the summer’. Rashford’s time in Manchester appeared to be up when he joined Barcelona on loan last summer, a deal that was expected to be made permanent in a £26million deal. The 28-year-old had made no bones about his desire to extend his stay at the club, but the Catalan giants instead decided to pursue a deal for Newcastle United winger Anthony Gordon. After a break following the World Cup, Rashford has now joined up with United’s pre-season training, watching from the sidelines as the Red Devils drew 1-1 against Leeds United on Wednesday. Get the latest transfer news every morning Sign up to our daily football newsletter for personalised updates on who your team is trying to sign and who won't be around next season. And while an exit from Old Trafford appeared far more likely earlier in the summer, a lack of serious suitors prepared to meet United’s £40m asking price means the Englishman now looks set to return to his boyhood club. But former Chelsea manager Gullit expects Rashford to come back to the Premier League with a point to prove, and believes keeping the winger could prove United’s best piece of business this summer. ‘Marcus Rashford could end up being the best signing,’ he told Sport Witness. Marcus Rashford has joined pre-season training with Manchester United (Picture: Getty) ‘He learned a lot at Barcelona and played much better, with far more freedom, than he ever did at Manchester United. ‘Was that his fault, or was it down to the environment at the club? It’s very easy to point fingers at the player. But if he performs well elsewhere, it suggests something was wrong in his previous environment. ‘So that could prove to be a fantastic move, for Manchester United if he stays, and performs like he did at Barcelona.’ Rashford’s return to United has also been endorsed by former Red Devils defender Rio Ferdinand, who recently said: ‘Rashford is back at Manchester United at the training ground and guys, he’s like a purring Ferrari man. Michael Carrick has hinted that Rashford is in his plans for the new season (Picture: Getty) ‘He looks fit, he looks ready. And you know what, there’s a smile on his face and there’s a little spring in his step. ‘We don’t know which way this is going to go and how it’s going to pan out by the end of this transfer window. But you know what, I hope he stays and he will be like a new signing at the football club. ‘And could this be the motivated Marcus Rashford to come out and prove all the doubters and all the people wrong? And all the naysayers.I hope it is. Let’s watch this space.’ Speaking after United’s draw with Leeds, Michael Carrick hinted that Rashford was in his plans ahead of the new season. ‘He’s our player, you know, and he’s come back great. He’s just like any other player,’ Carrick told ITV1. ‘I’ve known Marcus a long time and, you know, he gives us something a little bit different. And he’s been in great spirits since he’s been back. ‘He’s been back two or three days training and it’s just pretty normal, to be honest. And we’re looking forward to the start of the season.’ For more stories like this, check our sport page. Follow Metro Sport for the latest news on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
