Premier League News

Emiliano Martínez's Aston Villa future remains uncertain after his failed move to Manchester United. Transfer Talk has the latest news, gossip and rumors.

André Onana is in talks with Trabzonspor over a potential loan move, sources have told ESPN.

Former Tottenham Hotspur manager Mauricio Pochettino has admitted he was "in shock" after learning the news that long-serving chairman Daniel Levy was leaving the club.

Levy, 63, has established himself as one of the most respected executives in soccer, but Thursday saw him stepping down in a seismic move. How did it happen, and what will his legacy look like?

Tottenham Hotspur fans hope Daniel Levy's exit will herald a period of more meaningful engagement between the club and their supporters.
