Andros Townsend, Don Hutchison and Adam Crafton of The Athletic join Aaron Paul for a discussion about FIFA, Gianni Infantino and the latest transfer developments.
Sports editor Dan Roan provides an update on Infantino’s position following the announcement of plans to sell private investors stakes in FIFA competitions. After a deeply damaging week, could he lose control, or will he find a way to remain in power? UEFA vice-president Laura McAllister also shares her perspective.
The conversation then turns to Newcastle following Eddie Howe’s exit. Football reporter Ciaran Kelly joins the panel to assess the club’s situation as it deals with the departure of its manager and several important players.
The panel also considers whether Arsenal could realistically sign Real Madrid forward Vinicius Junior and where such a deal would stand among the biggest superstar transfers in Premier League history.
