Weekend News Recap

Friday night’s Premier League clash between Watford and Norwich was plunged into chaos when the floodlights failed.

The floodlights in each corner of Vicarage Road began to dim and referee Mike Dean deemed it was unsafe to continue – even though visibility was not interrupted.

The delay lasted ten minutes before Dean consulted the two managers and captains and asked if they were happy to continue, which they were.

The game also produced one of the goals of the season when Norwich ace Josh Sargent flicked the ball with his heel goalwards and magically hit the net - before doubling the Canaries’ lead after the floodlight chaos.

Meanwhile, Chelsea pair Ben Chilwell and Reece James shared a photo together of their rehabilitation.

The Blues full-backs were all smiles in the gym as they worked on getting back to full fitness.

The English duo’s Blues team-mate Antonio Rudiger could end up staying at Stamford Bridge - if the club manage to stump up £220,000-a-week to meet the defender's demands.

However, Thomas Tuchel’s side will have to move swiftly as the German’s contract is up in the summer and Man United are hot on his heels.

United’s rivals Man City look set to beat them in the transfer race for River Plate’s Argentina international forward Julian Alvarez.

Reports in South America suggest a deal is close between City and the striker who was previously linked with a move to Old Trafford.

Man City chasing River Plate’s Argentina international forward Julian Alvarez

Man City are closing in on a deal for River Plate’s Argentina international forward Julian Alvarez.

The 21-year-old – who is rated at around £17million by his club – has previously been linked with Manchester United.

But neighbours City have moved ahead in the race for his signature.

And reports in South America suggest a deal is close.

Alvarez is likely to spend the remainder of the season with River Plate as part of the agreement.

Then City would decide whether he links up with Pep Guardiola’s squad or joins one of the other teams in the City Football Group initially.

He has enjoyed an outstanding season in Argentina – scoring 18 goals and laying on seven assists in just 21 games so far.
