Phil Foden is expected to keep his spot in the England team, with Conor Gallagher replacing Trent Alexander-Arnold as the only change for the match against Slovenia.

In the upcoming Group C finale against Slovenia, Phil Foden is expected to maintain his place in England’s starting XI, while Conor Gallagher will replace Trent Alexander-Arnold as the only change, according to the Telegraph.

Despite a lackluster performance in the 1-1 draw against Denmark, Gareth Southgate remains defiant and will not make major changes to the team’s lineup. The Telegraph reports that Gallagher is set to replace Alexander-Arnold in midfield, but this is likely to be Southgate’s only alteration.

Critics may be disappointed by this decision, as they have called for in-form players Anthony Gordon and Cole Palmer to be given a chance. Some even suggest moving Jude Bellingham back to partner Declan Rice in central midfield to create space for Gordon. However, Southgate has made it clear that he does not plan on making significant changes to the team.

Gordon and Palmer have yet to feature in the tournament, and their opportunity against Slovenia may come from the substitutes’ bench. Aston Villa defender Ezri Konsa has impressed Southgate in training and could also be given a chance if England find themselves in a comfortable position to make substitutions.

Greenwood sale to fund Zirkzee move

Manchester United’s pursuit of Joshua Zirkzee is progressing well, with the club looking to sell Mason Greenwood quickly amid interest from Italian clubs, according to the i. After his loan spell at Getafe, Greenwood could fetch £30m for United.

Juventus had been the frontrunners to sign Greenwood, but now Napoli and Lazio have joined the race. United are aiming to recoup around £30m for the 22-year-old and are determined not to sell him at a discounted price. They also have the option to extend his contract, which currently expires in 2025, by another year.

However, United’s priority this summer is to sign a new forward, and a swift sale of Greenwood is their preferred route as they close in on securing a replacement. The club is making progress in their pursuit of Bologna striker Joshua Zirkzee, and they have identified other targets such as Lille’s Jonathan David. Zirkzee, standing at 6ft 4in, is seen as the ideal profile to ease the workload on Rasmus Hojlund, but other clubs are also interested in the Netherlands international, prompting United to act swiftly.

Newcastle out of Calvert-Lewin race

Newcastle have decided against pursuing a deal for Everton striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin, as they believe Everton’s asking price of £40m is too high, according to the Daily Mail. As a result, Everton will no longer pursue Newcastle winger Yankuba Minteh.

Everton had offered around £30m for Minteh, but Lyon is reportedly willing to meet Newcastle’s asking price of closer to £40m for the teenage winger.

Although Newcastle has ended their interest in Calvert-Lewin, they are still exploring other options as manager Eddie Howe targets a forward this summer.

Why Olise chose Bayern

Michael Olise has chosen to join Bayern Munich over Manchester United and Chelsea due to the opportunity to play Champions League football, as reported by the Telegraph. Bayern is expected to finalize a deal with Crystal Palace for the forward this week.

Both United and Chelsea were interested in signing the 22-year-old, but Olise was also attracted to the prospect of working under Vincent Kompany.

Olise’s decision was not driven by financial factors, as his rapport with Kompany and Bayern’s history of success were key factors in his choice to join the Bundesliga club. Bayern is confident that they have convinced Olise that it is the best place for his career.

Kompany, the former Manchester City captain, was appointed as Bayern’s head coach in May, and the German club paid over £10 million in compensation to Burnley for his services.
