Son responds to Kane transfer speculation: Nothing is decided yet

Son Heung-min is not worried about talk linking Harry Kane with a move away from Tottenham and is instead focusing on his own future with the Premier League club.

Kane admitted last month he feels at a crossroads in his career following another trophyless campaign with Tottenham, where he has spent the past 17 years.

The prolific striker, who is currently away on international duty with England, has been linked with Manchester City, Chelsea, Manchester United, Barcelona and Real Madrid.

Son formed an almost-telepathic partnership with Kane last term, the pair assisting one another 14 times to surpass Alan Shearer and Chris Sutton s long-standing record of 13 for Blackburn Rovers in 1994-95.

However, amid growing rumours over his attack partner s future, S…

Wydad s chances of claiming a second continental title did take a blow with the second half dismissal of Amine Attouchi, who was shown two yellow cards in the space of nine minutes.

Sanchez: Qatar not at Copa America for selfies with Messi

Felix Sanchez said Qatar are not at the Copa America to take selfies with Lionel Messi as the tournament guests look to stun Argentina and qualify for the quarter-finals.

Van Gaal ´hopeful´ on Ronaldo return

Louis van Gaal is hopeful of striking a deal to bring Real Madrid superstar Cristiano Ronaldo back to Manchester United.

Ronaldo swapped Old Trafford for the Santiago Bernabeu in 2009 for a then-world record fee of £80million, and has enjoyed a remarkable six-year stay in the Spanish capital, breaking Madrid s all-time goalscoring record earlier this season.

However, speculation is mounting that the Portugal captain will leave Madrid next year, with Paris Saint-Germain thought to be at the head of the queue for his signature.

But, speaking after his side s 2-1 Premier League win at Watford on Saturday, Van Gaal indicated that United are keen on a reunion with Ronaldo.

Ronaldo plays on the wings and he is fast and scores goals, said the Dutchman.
