April 2025 Football Roundup — CottonCandi News
April was a busy month on the pitch and in the transfer rumour mills. Across six new stories on CottonCandi News, you saw dramatic late goals, shock results, European ties, and a headline that mixed Hollywood with lower-league ambition. This archive collects those highlights so you can catch up fast.
Key Matches & Moments
Wolves stunned Manchester United at Old Trafford with a 1-0 win sealed by Pablo Sarabia’s free-kick. That result ended a long run of poor form for Wolves and marked a rare double over United. Liverpool edged closer to the Premier League title after Trent Alexander-Arnold’s late strike sank Leicester and confirmed their relegation. Those two matches shaped the title race and the relegation fight in ways fans will remember.
Chelsea featured twice in April coverage. One piece explained Chelsea’s Europa Conference League schedule, the new league phase, and what supporters should expect in terms of opponents and ticket information. Another preview focused on the Premier League clash with Tottenham, outlining tactical matchups and the players likely to decide the game, like Nicolas Jackson.
Across Europe, Fiorentina faced a tough Europa Conference League tie against Celje, a matchup where form, missing players, and tactical choices could swing the tie. That story highlighted how underdogs can threaten favorites in two-legged European ties when home runs and set pieces matter most.
Transfer Talk & What to Watch
The biggest off-field buzz involved Jamie Vardy and a potential move to Wrexham. After leaving Leicester City, Vardy’s future became a hot topic. Wrexham’s promotion push and the club’s Hollywood connections made this an eye-catching rumour. We broke down why a move would make sense for both Vardy and Wrexham, and where uncertainties remain.
