Sol Campbell to coach England U21?

Sol Campbell, remember him? Daily Mirror is reporting that the former Arsenal defender is on his way back to football management after being tipped to manage the huge talent at England’s disposal.

He wasn’t a hit at Southend but you could argue that the south coast club was heading for doom but he did just okay with Macclesfield but does that qualify him to manage England U21? There’s so much malaise against black coaches and in the era of Black Lives Matter, he just might ride the tide.

Liverpool inquire about Roma’s Pellegini

One wouldn’t expect Liverpool to turn to any midfielder from the Serie A considering how it ended with a certain Alberto Aquilani but the reigning champions, at least until City are confirmed champions are asking after AS Roma’s Lorenzo Pellegrini.

Juan Mata to Lazio?
