The Premier League season might have wrapped up for 2024/25, but one ground in England's top flight will be busy this week. Brentford's Gtech Community Stadium is the host venue for the Unity Cup, a four-team international tournament that will run from May 27 to May 31. "National pride. Bragging rights. Pure vibes. This is war with rhythm," the tournament's broadcast partner AfrosportTV posted on X.com. That all sounds great, but it doesn't really explain what will be going on in west London. Allow us.

The 2024/25 Premier League season concluded on Sunday, with Liverpool receiving the trophy at a buoyant Anfield. Like the title race, the relegation places were concluded weeks ago, with Leicester City, Ipswich Town and Southampton all suffering an instant return to the Championship. Leeds United, Burnley and playoff winners Sunderland will hope to fare better in 2025/26. There will also be jockeying to knock Liverpool from their throne at the other end of the table.

Trent Alexander-Arnold emotionally declared Sunday to be "best day of my life" after the Anfield faithful opened their arms to him one last time. Alexander-Arnold was booed during Liverpool's previous home game against Arsenal, having announced he would leave the club at the end of the season. Arne Slot's side romping to Premier League title with four games to spare arguably created a news vacuum in which the barracking of the Real Madrid bound-star and its associated discourse rumbled on and on.

Manchester United's dismal 2024/25 reached its conclusion on Sunday with a 2-0 Premier League win over Aston Villa.

United headed into the final game of the season winless in eight top-flight fixtures, going back to a mid-March win at relegated Leicester City.

Nottingham Forest host Chelsea on Sunday in perhaps the most significant of all the final-day Premier League matches. Just one point and two places separate these teams in the standings, meaning both are still able to secure qualification for next season's UEFA Champions League depending on how results today play out. While results elsewhere will have an impact on their chances, this game is, in many ways, a straight shootout for a top-five finish.

ETIHAD STADIUM, MANCHESTER — No sooner had Manchester City's fans bade an emotional farewell to Kevin De Bruyne, Pep Guardiola put them on notice for another seismic departure. For Tuesday's 3-1 win over Bournemouth, which put City on the cusp of UEFA Champions League qualification after a season for form and fitness woes, Guardiola left first-team players Savinho, Abdukodir Khusanov, John Stones, Rico Lewis and James McAtee out of the matchday squad.

Former undisputed super lightweight champion Josh Taylor saw his new era at welterweight get off to an inauspicious start as he suffered a unanimous-decision defeat to Ekow Essuman in Glasgow. Judges scored comfortably in favour of the former British and Commonwealth champion, who seemed to have too much power for Taylor throughout much of an entertaining dogfight.
