Former City boss Taylor named head coach of Liverpool women

MANCHESTER, England :Gareth Taylor has been appointed head coach of Liverpool's women's team, the club announced on Friday, five months after being sacked by Manchester City. The 52-year-old coached City for five years, leading them to FA Cup and League Cup triumphs, and a narrow second-place finish to Chelsea in the Women's Super League in 2024 that was decided by goal difference. But he was fired by City in March, just five days before their League Cup final against Chelsea, with the club citing the team's underperformance. City went on to finish fourth in the WSL this past season while Liverpool were seventh. "Everyone in football knows about the history, size and potential of (Liverpool), and I am really looking forward to the task ahead," Taylor said. "Our aim is to create a team that supporters can be proud of, which plays good football and which will hopefully bring success along the way." Andy O'Boyle, managing director of Liverpool's women's programme, hailed the appointment, saying Taylor "has a proven track record of building successful, identity-driven teams and his ability to develop players and help them reach the next level is second to none." Taylor will take charge of Saturday's closed-door friendly against Aston Villa at Bodymoor Heath. The WSL season kicks off on September 6.

Villa sign forward Guessand from Nice

France-born Ivory Coast forward Evann Guessand has joined Aston Villa from Ligue 1 side Nice, the Premier League club said on Friday. Villa did not disclose the duration of the 24-year-old's contract or the transfer fee, but media reports said it was a five-year deal worth 35 million euros ($40.71 million). Guessand graduated from Nice's youth system and made his senior debut in 2020. He went on loan to Swiss club Lausanne-Sport and French side Nantes before having his best season yet in 2024-25, scoring 12 goals in Ligue 1 as Nice finished fourth. He also scored his first goal for Ivory Coast in March in a 1-0 win over Morocco in the World Cup qualifiers. "When I heard (Villa) wanted me, I didn't think twice. I'm ready to give my all," Guessand said in a video posted on social media by the English club. Villa, who finished sixth last season, begin their league campaign with a home game against Newcastle United on August 16. ($1 = 0.8598 euros)

Kane hails Son partnership as Premier League's finest after South Korean's Spurs exit

Harry Kane paid tribute to his former Tottenham Hotspur teammate Son Heung-min, describing their partnership as "one of the best" in Premier League history following the South Korean's departure from the club. Son, who combined with Kane for 47 league goals to form a lethal partnership for the best part of a decade at Spurs, joined Los Angeles FC on a record-breaking Major League Soccer transfer on Wednesday. The 33-year-old South Korea skipper had moved to North London from Bayer Leverkusen in 2015, bagging 173 goals and 101 assists in 454 appearances and leading them to their first trophy in 17 years by winning the Europa League title in May. "Massive congratulations to him and his career at Tottenham," Bayern Munich striker Kane told reporters after his side's 4-0 friendly win over former club Spurs on Thursday. "First and foremost, a great person. I've got to know him really well as a friend, and just how humble he is and how good a guy he is. "I think as a player, you know, we had one of the best partnerships in Premier League history. We just had that connection that we loved. "It's a great way for his Tottenham career to end, to lift the trophy last year with the team… and now it's a new chapter for him, he'll go to LA, and I wish him all the best, and I hope to see him soon and we can catch up." Kane spent most of his career at Spurs after joining their academy as an 11-year-old, scoring a club record 280 goals in over 430 appearances in all competitions. The 32-year-old England captain joined German giants Bayern in August 2023.
