Will Still has resigned as RC Lens manager and is set to return to England ahead of the new season. Reports from talkSPORT and The Independent say Still is among the candidates Southampton are considering to replace Ivan Juric after the club’s relegation from the Premier League. Still led Lens to an eighth-place Ligue 1 finish and has returned to the UK to be closer to his partner Emma Saunders, who is dealing with health issues. Southampton, boasting a young squad compared to many Championship sides, could offer Still an appealing project. Former Sheffield Wednesday manager Danny Rohl is also in the running for the Saints’ job. Still is also reportedly under consideration for the Hull City manager role, after the Tigers dismissed Ruben Selles despite securing survival on the final day. However, Still may be hesitant due to Hull’s reputation for quickly sacking managers who underperform.

Brighton & Hove Albion pulled off a stunning 3-2 victory over Premier League champions Liverpool at the Amex Stadium, claiming their first win over the Reds in five attempts. Liverpool, despite having already secured the league title, started with intent. Cody Gakpo  came close in the opening minute before Mohamed Salah  helped set up the opener. His delicate touch on Dominik Szoboszlai’s sweeping pass freed Conor Bradley, who cut back for Harvey Elliott to slot home in the 9th minute. Brighton responded with confidence. Simon Adingra’s deflected shot nearly found the net, and Pervis Estupiñán fired over moments later. Their persistence paid off just after the half-hour mark when Yasin Ayari controlled Brajan Gruda’s pass and slotted calmly past Alisson for 1-1. However, Liverpool struck again on the stroke of half-time. Szoboszlai powered a shot over Bart Verbruggen to restore the Reds’ lead. But Brighton refused to back down. They came out strong after the break and took the game to the champions. Danny Welbeck and Yankuba Minteh caused problems, and their pressure eventually turned into goals, with a late comeback sealing a famous win. The result marks a memorable night for the Seagulls, while Liverpool’s focus may now shift toward celebrations and squad building for next season.

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has confirmed that Jack Grealish’s future at the club will be decided at the end of the season, as the England international continues to struggle for game time. Grealish, a key figure in City’s 2023 treble-winning side, has fallen down the pecking order. The 29-year-old has started just seven Premier League games this term and was an unused substitute in City‘s shock FA Cup final loss to Crystal Palace. That omission has intensified speculation around a summer exit, but Guardiola insists no talks have been held yet.“We didn’t talk, I didn’t talk with him,” Guardiola said on Monday.“These things belong to the agents and the club. Txiki [Begiristain] and Hugo [Viana] will decide. He needs to come back and start playing minutes again.” The City boss acknowledged that Grealish, who still has two years left on his contract, is likely frustrated by his limited role.“There is not one player in my locker room who is happy when they do not play,” he added.“They are here to play, and when they don’t, they are not satisfied. That’s normal.” Meanwhile, Guardiola confirmed that Kevin De Bruyne will leave City at the end of the season. The Belgian will play his final home game against Bournemouth, ending a glittering 10-year spell at the club with 16 trophies.Despite De Bruyne’s belief that he can still play at the highest level, Guardiola hinted that the time is right to part ways due to recent injury setbacks and declining form.“There are players who are really difficult to replace,” he said.“But we have to move forward.” City now face a crucial run-in, and the futures of several senior players are set to dominate the summer headlines.
