 Sevilla 3 - 0 Manchester United (5-2 on aggregate) For 80 minutes at Old Trafford last week, it was all going so well for Manchester United. Then it all fell apart. They were put out of their misery and dumped out of the Europa League quarter-finals following a dreadful second-leg performance in defeat by Sevilla. United were well below their best as they exited Europe with a whimper. The Spanish side were gifted the lead after eight minutes when Youssef En-Nesyri finished following an awful error from Harry Maguire, and Sevilla doubled their advantage shortly after half-time with a looping header from defender Loic Bade. Sevilla's win was complete nine minutes from time when En-Nesyri again capitalised on a shocking mistake, this time from goalkeeper David de Gea, to complete the win.

Sevilla 1-2 Arsenal Gabriel Jesus played a pivotal role in helping Arsenal secure a much-needed victory in the Champions League against Sevilla.  After a disappointing 2-1 loss to Lens in their previous European match, the Gunners faced a challenging test against the seven-time Europa League champions. The match began with Gabriel Martinelli making his Champions League debut and scoring a goal for Arsenal. He skillfully capitalised on a brilliant pass from Gabriel Jesus, skillfully maneuvering past the goalkeeper just before halftime. In the early stages of the second half, Jesus extended Arsenal's lead with a magnificent shot that found the top corner of the net. Despite the vocal support from the home crowd, Sevilla managed to get back into the game with a goal from Nemanja Gudelj via a set-piece. More Sevilla news can be by clicking here.

There has been an interesting development with of La Liga's most decorated players. Sevilla have reached an agreement to terminate Isco's contract, just four months after signing the former Spain midfielder on a free transfer.

He signed from Malaga in 2013 and helped Real win the Champions League five times and La Liga three times. However, he has now been released after just 19 games for Sevilla, scoring once and claiming three assists. It will be certainly interesting to see where he ends up next.

Is Julen Lopetegui moving to London? It has been reported that Julen Lopetegui has agreed to become the next manager of West Ham at the end of the season. Update - It has now been announced that David Moyes will definitely leave the club at the end of the season. While nothing has been finalised, the 57-year-old is close to making a return to management after leaving Wolves in August of last year. The current West Ham manager, David Moyes, has started mounting pressure due to a poor run of results. The Hammers have won only one of their last nine Premier League games, and were eliminated from the quarter-finals of the Europa League. They were recently thrashed 5-0 by Chelsea on Sunday, leaving them ninth in the table.

Lets look at what all the newspapers are saying across the continent. The rumour mill is rather busy at the moment.  Premier League rumours and stories Liverpool are reportedly ready to trigger the £75m release clause in Sevilla and France defender Jules Kounde's contract this month, with Chelsea and Real Madrid also interested in him. Chelsea's German defender Antonio Rudiger, out of contract in the summer and yet to sign a new deal with the European champions, is said to prefer a move to Real Madrid over Paris St-Germain if he leaves London.  Uruguay striker Edinson Cavani has committed himself to Manchester United for the rest of the season after talks with boss Ralf Rangnick.

As the January transfer window gets closer, let's have a look at some of the news and rumours. The constant changing in managers at all levels is starting to have an impact. Several reports have indicated that Tottenham and Manchester City are interested in signing 21-year-old Fiorentina and Serbia striker Dusan Vlahovic in January. However, they would need to pay around 70 million pounds.  Donny van de Beek has decided to leave Manchester United in January. The Dutch midfielder has found minutes hard to come by since his move from Ajax in September 2020. Could a new manager at Old Trafford change his mind? Reports in Birmimgham Live indicate that Wolves are interested in signing him.

The January transfer window is approaching.  As expected, the number of rumours about the latest transfers have exploded. Let's have a look at the best of them. Bundesliga Borussia Dortmund will look to put together a deal to try to persuade Norway striker Erling Braut Haaland to stay with them. The 21-year-old's future at the club set to be decided by the end of February.  Bayern Munich are interested in signing Leeds United's Raphinha.

 Nottingham Forest 0 - 2 Manchester United Manchester United gave their Champions League hopes a huge lift.  Antony scored and set up a Diogo Dalot goal to lead their injury-hit side to a 2-0 victory at Nottingham Forest on Sunday as Erik ten Hag's side climbed to third place. Man United have 59 points from 30 games, three points in front of fourth-placed Newcastle and six ahead of Spurs. A closer look at how United took home the three points. Alongside Bruno Fernandes, Eriksen helped United dominate the first half with Jadon Sancho and Fernandes having early chances. After Antony's opener, it took an inspired performance from Navas and some wasteful finishing to keep Forest in the match. Fernandes saw his free header sail just wide on the stroke of half-time and then the Portuguese midfielder had a curling effort tipped onto the post by Navas after the restart. This win was the perfect response to United's disappointing 2-2 draw at home to Sevilla in the Europa League.

Spain have not won a major trophy since Euro 2012.  The players that have come through perhaps haven't been as good as some from the recent history of Spanish football.  This article will explore some of the players that could be at the forefront of the next Spanish revolution.
