November International Break: Premier League Players' And Clubs' Triumphs And Disappointments.

Premier League Stars: Shining on the World Stage For many, the international break was an opportunity to cement their reputations or seize redemption. Premier League footballers played pivotal roles in decisive World Cup qualifiers and friendlies around the globe. Erling Haaland (Manchester City) blazed a trail by firing Norway to their first World Cup since 1998, scoring 16 goals in just eight qualifiers. Haaland netted a brace in a 4-1 win over Italy and scored at least once in every qualifier, underlining his unstoppable scoring form for both club and country. Bruno Fernandes (Manchester United) , struggling for Premier League goals this season, exploded with a hat-trick in Portugal’s 9-1 demolition of Armenia — his first-ever international treble and a statement performance that reenergized his nation’s qualifying campaign.​ Jeremy Doku (Manchester City) dazzled for Belgium, creating 10 chances and netting two goals with an assist across two games. His relentless dribbling and cre...

Despite Jesus' blow, Arsenal is willing to spend €100 million to sign a 32-goal striker this month.


After losing Gabriel Jesus to a permanent injury, Arsenal may try to recruit Sporting CP forward Viktor Gyokeres during the current January transfer window, according to French publication L'equipe.

After suffering a probable anterior cruciate ligament injury last weekend, the Brazilian may miss the remainder of the 2024–25 season. Gunners boss Mikel Arteta is looking for a replacement because Bukayo Saka is also sidelined until further notice.

Despite his €100 million release clause, Gyokeres has been on Arsenal's radar for some time, and the North Londoners may contemplate a bid for him.

After paying a comparable sum on England international midfielder Declan Rice, the Gunners are no longer hesitant to pay this much for a striker.

Arsenal could use a striker like the 26-year-old Swedish international, who has already scored 32 goals in 30 games this season across all competitions.

Gyokeres has what it takes to lead the Gunners to the next level, and while acquiring Alexander Isak, a striker for Newcastle United, in January is unlikely, acquiring the Sporting star might be doable.


Activating his €100m release clause could get the job done, and Arsenal fans will hope the club can successfully obtain the services of such a striker.

They should not be afraid to spend a lot of money on him since he could make the difference for them in the title race this term and in the future.

After missing out on a chance with Brighton & Hove Albion, Gyokeres has a lot to prove in the Premier League. However, he has since proven his abilities in the top division of Portugal, and he might be interested in returning to England.

Although he has many suitors in the English Premier League and throughout Europe, the majority of them are holding off on moving until the summer, thus Arsenal has an opportunity to outshine them by pursuing him this month.

Edoardo Bove, a Fiorentina midfielder, slumped on the pitch during his team's Serie A match against Inter Milan on Sunday. Bove's teammates hastily shouted for medical assistance and surrounded the 22-year-old before doctors treated him and quickly transferred him to a nearby ambulance on the side of the pitch. The event occurred in the 16th minute of the match, which was momentarily suspended at 0-0 and then abandoned with plans to reschedule later in the season.

Botafogo, consisting of ten players, won their first Copa Libertadores versus Mineiro.

Botafogo won their first Copa Libertadores with a 3-1 victory over Atlético Mineiro. The all-Brazilian fight got off to a rousing start as Artur Jorge's team was reduced to ten men just 31 seconds in after Gregore was sent off for a high lunge on Fausto Vera. But the Estrela Solitária broke the deadlock with a sweeping finish from Luiz Henrique, who went on to win a penalty later in the half. Everson's foul on the winger was reviewed by VAR before Alex Telles cemented their dominance with a comfortable penalty kick just before halftime. Mineiro responded early in the second half, with Eduardo Vargas heading in Hulk's corner from the left, but the 2013 victors were unable to equalize. Júnior Santos' late goal secured victory for Artur Jorge's team in Buenos Aires' Estadio Monumental, sparking wild celebrations. Botafogo currently leads the Brasileirão by three points with two games remaining in 2024.
