Inter readying bid for Moutinho

Inter Milan are hot on the trail of Monaco star Joao Moutinho, Journal du Dimanche has moved to suggest.

The Nerazzurri recently recruited Geoffrey Kondogbia from Stade Louis II for staggering €40 million and they now seem ready to pay top dollar for his former teammate as well.

The Nerazzurri will probably offload Fredy Guarin this summer and they want the Portugal hotshot to pull the strings in midfield next season.

Joao Moutinho has been on the radar of Europe s top sides even before he joined Monaco, and ther…

Second-half goals from Joselu, Brahim Diaz and Rodrygo saw Real Madrid into the last 16 of the Copa del Rey with a 3-1 win over fourth-tier Arandina.

Although the final score looked comfortable, Madrid had to be patient against their lowly opponents, who were able to celebrate getting on the scoresheet with a late own goal from Nacho.

Unsurprisingly, Madrid dominated in every department but they had to wait for a 54th-minute penalty from Joselu to break the deadlock, with Diaz adding another just a minute later as Arandina’s resistance finally cracked.

Rodrygo then added a third in the first minute of stoppage time, but Madrid then blotted their copy book with …

Bayern Munich boss Louis van Gaal hopes to reinforce his defence with a new left-side defender. The Dutch coach hopes to sign either Joan Capdevilla from Villarreal or Fernando Navarro from Sevilla this winter.

Van Gaal hopes to bolster Bayern`s back line after a weak start of the season.

They currently sit in eighth place in the Bundesliga, already eight points adrift of leaders Bayer Leverkusen and Hamburger SV, with just three wins from eight games played.

Signing Capdevilla or Navarro won`t be an easy task, considering they both established them self as a regular player for their clubs the last years.

Spanish international Capdevilla joined Villarreal from Deportivo La Coruna in 2007 while Navarro arrived at Sevilla from Mallorca in 2008.

Sporting Cristal claimed the Peruvian Primera Division title after they outlasted Juan Aurich in extra time of their third leg on Sunday.

With the Peruvian top flight not using aggregate scores or away goals to decide finals, a third leg was required to decider the winner of the overall championship following Wednesday s goalless draw that left the tie level 2-2 across two matches.

And the third leg at the Estadio Mansiche served up another thriller, as substitute Edinson Chavez s 113th-minute goal gave Clausura champions Cristal a 3-2 win on the night and 5-4 on aggregate.

Chavez, who replaced Maximiliano Nunez nine minutes earlier, came off the bench to help clinch Cristal s first overall championship since 2012.

Juan Aurich the Apertura winners made a …

Uruguay were held to a 1-1 draw with Paraguay on Saturday as their winless run in CONMEBOL qualifying for the 2014 FIFA World Cup continued.

Uruguay finished fourth at the 2010 FIFA World Cup and after winning the 2011 Copa America, hopes were high for the future.

But they might not even reach next year s event in Rio de Janeiro as they failed to win for the fifth competitive match on the trot.

After more than 80 tense minutes at Estadio Centenario in Montevideo, Liverpool striker Luis Suarez fired Uruguay in front.

Nicolas Lodeiro floated in a ball from the left and Suarez met it emphatically on the volley, thrashing a superb strike into the bottom left-hand corner with just eight minutes to play.

The goal sparked wild celebrations among the home…
