Micah Richards is undoubtedly one among the brightest of defenders in the contemporary soccer zone and no wonder he would be eyed by leading clubs.  Speculations are strong the England international is under the target of famous football club Juventus of late.

According to sources, Juventus have been trying hard to achieve an able replacement for Stephan Lichtsteine which they seem to have found in Micah.

Lichtsteine is the present right-back for Juventus who is free to make himself available to other clubs during the 2015 January transfer window. News has it that both Chelsea and Arsenal are vying for the Swiss right-back in their teams from the next season.

Micah is presently on loan with Fiorentina & might have grasped attention of the Serie A champs

Juventus. However, the experts feel that his signing up with Juventus is kind of dicey as Massimiliano Allegri might have qualms in accepting a player in his A-one team – who has been an Etihad reject.

Micah was some kind of bit-part player with Manchester City. However, the presence of Sagna (Bacary) was quite a big deal for the player. His position was further challenged by Pablo Zabaleta. It is said that both Sagna & Pablo’s presence in Man City kind of terminated Micah’s career in the club- the very club which this Birmingham-born defender has been representing since he was 13.

Since his move to the Florence team on season-long loan, Micah has been able to make just one single Serie-a start but is hopeful to channelize Stadio Franchi quarter to work as potential shop window. It’s no wonder that if Juventus is right in approaching him for their A-one club the coming season, there is no reason for this Birmingham-born defender to deny the agreement.

The Premier League has kicked off with a shocking result that is still making headlines in newspapers and websites all around the world as Manchester United, the team that went through a superb pre-season with victories against: Real Madrid, Liverpool, Valencia, Inter Milan and As.Roma.

Manchester United now leaded by Louis van Gaal enjoyed an undefeated pre-season with triumphs against the well-known clubs mentioned above faced a 2-1 defeat against Swansea City. That was the only real surprising outcome out of all the opening matches of the season in the Premier League.

Jose Mourinho’s Chelsea cruised to a comfortable 3-1 victory against Burnley and this is what is expected from the team that is predicted to win the Premier League in this season.

According to bookmarkers and soccer betting websites such as: bet365, Chelsea are the heavy favorites of winning the league title this time around and this seems to be more logical outcome if you take into consideration the big name players that Jose Mourinho has at his disposal and their newest arrival Diego Costa who has made an immediate impact in Stamford Bridge as he scored a goal in Chelsea’s opening match of the season.

Arsene Wenger’s Arsenal is another club that are heavy favorites on making a genuine charge for the league title as the club signed reinforcements in the form of Alexis Sanchez, Calum Chambers and Mathieu Debuchy.

Liverpool came in 2^nd place in the previous season of the Premier League but this time around they aren’t expected or being backed to have such an impressive campaign after selling Luis Suarez to Barcelona. The odds of Liverpool winning the league in this season has significantly dropped for bookmarkers and punters ever since the Uruguayan attacker left Anfield.

The current champions of the Premier League, Manchester City along with Chelsea are the two favorites of securing the top spots of the English league and have the best odds according to soccer betting websites of lifting the prestigious silverware.
