Queens Park Rangers centre-back Leon Balogun believes manager Michael Beale was very unselfish to turn down the top job at Wolverhampton Wanderers, speaking to his side’s official media team. Ultimately, most of the boys here want to play in the Premier League one day and every manager wants to be there, too. “It’s the best league in the world and there were enough reasons for him to take the job. Already accustomed to life in the Midlands from his time at Aston Villa too, it would have been an easy decision to make. But as a man born in London, perhaps it’s no surprise that he’s stayed put in the capital at this point.

An England Role Could Emerge For Ben White Ahead Of World Cup

Ben White’s reward for some impressive displays for Arsenal last season at centre-back was a call-up to the England team by Gareth Southgate. Having moved to Arsenal from Brighton and Hove Albion before the 2021/22 season for over £50m, White was showing strong signs of having a bright future as an England central defender.

Such dysfunction behind the scenes underlines how amazing it is that a club of Omonia’s stature managed to make it to Old Trafford in the first place and give Uzoho the night of his life.
