Best Slot Games With A Soccer Theme You Must Try

When it comes to online casino games, it is safe to say that slot games are the most popular. That shouldn’t come as a surprise. Slot games are rather simple and entertaining. They also have beautiful game designs. But, not all slot games are the same. Most of them work on a similar principle, but they are different when it comes to themes. That is usually how passionate online casino enthusiasts choose their slot games. If you are searching for new games, you can browse the New online casinos list by Erik King and find the one that suits you best. But, if you are searching for a slot game with a soccer theme, this article is perfect for you. Here are the best slot games with a soccer theme you must try.

Shoot! Slots

Soccer lovers are pretty passionate when it comes to their favourite game. That is why a slot game with a soccer theme must be pretty authentic. But, slot games are pretty simple and there simply can’t be any soccer features. At least when we discuss the gameplay. But that doesn’t mean that the game can’t celebrate soccer with its design. That is exactly what Shoot! Slots did. The game was made by Microgaming and it shows respect to soccer legends like Pele and Maradona. The design is easy on the eye and everyone who loves soccer will definitely love this game.

Football Glory

When it comes to soccer slots, there aren’t many games that are better than Football Glory. The game was made by Yggdrasil, one of the best names in the online casino business. The game design is pretty simple. That means that you will easily find the most important features. Also, if you are a true soccer lover, you will definitely like the graphics. The artists did a wonderful job with the soccer theme. The Football Glory game is rather popular with soccer fans because it is subtle. People who made it know soccer and they knew what the players would love to see. That is why it is one of the most successful slot games with the theme of soccer.

Football: Champions Cup Slots

When you look at the names that are the best in the online casino business, you will definitely see NetEnt there. That is why the Football: Champions Cup Slots game simply had to be on our list. What are the things that make this game so good? The game design is pretty simple and that means that it is easy to learn. Also, the artwork is beautiful. But, the best thing when it comes to this game is the fact that it gives you a chance to experience the ambient that you can experience at soccer stadiums. How does it do that? When you do something good, the crowd cheers you. It feels like you are on the pitch, playing football. There aren’t many games that can give you that.

Hat-Trick Hero

The last game on our list is definitely one of the best. It is made by Betsoft and that tells you enough when it comes to the quality of the game. But, what makes this game good for soccer lovers? The most important thing is that it shows respect for the game. People who made the game definitely understand the game. They also understand the passion soccer lovers have for the sport. That is why it is no surprise that they made such a good slot game. The design is simple, but beautiful. Players can easily find the most important features and that makes their gaming experience much better. Sure, this game may not make you feel like you are at the stadium, but it will definitely give you a chance to win money and watch the beautiful soccer art.

Final Word

Soccer slot games are wonderful. But, you must not forget the fact that playing slot games is also gambling. That is why you must be rather careful with your money. The best thing you can do is set a stop-loss limit. For example, if you determine that you can afford to lose $50 per day, then you must stop playing when you lose that money. That is one of the best ways to take care of your finances when playing slot games.

West Ham backed to move for Broja

West Ham have been backed to make a move for Southampton striker Armando Broja, with the youngster currently impressing on loan from Chelsea.

The Lowdown: Broja impressing for Saints

The 20-year-old moved to St Mary’s Stadium on a temporary basis last summer, in order to earn more playing time away from Stamford Bridge.

Broja has impressed for Saints, leading the line well and scoring six goals in 11 Premier League starts, also chipping in with two Carabao Cup strikes.

It seems unlikely that the Albanian will play a big role at Chelsea for the foreseeable future – they have £100m Romelu Lukaku, £72m Kai Havertz and £48m Timo Werner to keep happy – and with West Ham eyeing up summer additions, he has been backed as a potential target.

The Latest: Broja backed to make move

Speaking to Give Me Sport, journalist Alex Crook of talkSPORT claimed the Hammers should consider making a move for the young striker, even though another year on loan at Southampton appears most likely:

“That’s the most likely outcome [another year at Southampton], but teams like West Ham and Newcastle would be foolish not to at least have a try.”

This comes after claims that an absolute promise has been made to David Moyes from GSB, ensuring he will have cash to splash with a proper strategy in place to attack the market this summer.

The Verdict: Shrewd summer signing

While it may be difficult to snap up Broja permanently, given his potential ceiling at Chelsea and the fact his contract there is until 2026, a loan move could add much-needed attacking depth to Moyes’ squad.

The youngster has been hailed as ‘dangerous’ by Saints manager Ralph Hasenhuttl and he has won an average of 2.9 aerial duels per game in the league this season, showing the type of physicality which could make him the perfect deputy to Michail Antonio.

The Hammers have long needed an adequate support for the Jamaica star, and Broja’s age and profile suggest they should look on further.

In other news, a journalist has dropped a big West Ham transfer claim. Read more here.

Forest dealt Jordi Osei-Tutu injury blow

Nottingham Forest have been dealt a blow regarding the fitness of Jordi Osei-Tutu ahead of their upcoming Championship fixture.

What’s the latest?

According to a report by Nottinghamshire Live, the right-back looks set to miss out on the visit of Millwall to the City Ground on Saturday afternoon, as he is yet to recover from a hamstring injury which has kept him sidelined since the 2-1 loss to Blackburn Rovers in August.

However, the report added that the Arsenal loanee could be back in action for Forest at the beginning of October, as well as sharing an image the 22-year-old posted on his personal Instagram page, which would appear to suggest that he is indeed nearing a return to full fitness.

Cooper will be gutted

With Steve Cooper heading into his first game in charge of Nottingham Forest this weekend, the absence of Osei-Tutu is sure to have left the 41-year-old gutted, as the defender is undoubtedly a player who boasts plenty of potential.

Indeed, while the £1.08m-rated man has hardly featured for Forest this season, making just two Championship appearances for the club prior to his injury, the right-back previously demonstrated his ability while on loan at German side Bochum back in 2019/20.

Indeed, over his 21 2.Bundesliga appearances that season, the £2.5k-per-week defender scored five goals and provided his teammates with two assists, as well as making 0.9 key passes and taking 0.9 shots per game.

The 22-year-old also impressed in metrics more typical of his position, averaging 0.8 interceptions, 1.2 tackles and 0.5 clearances and winning 5.4 duels per match, with these returns seeing him earn a seasonal SofaScore match rating of 6.75.

As such, the unavailability of Osei-Tutu is sure to come as a blow to Cooper, who will undoubtedly be hoping that his Forest side can get off to a winning start under his leadership against the Lions this afternoon.

Saints could have next Romeu in Finnigan

Despite having an average squad age of 26, Southampton have a handful of players who are in and around the twilight years of their careers.

One of those is 30-year-old midfielder Oriol Romeu, who signed for the club back in 2015 from fellow Chelsea for an undisclosed fee.

Since then, the Spaniard has made a total of 221 appearances for the Saints prior to their Premier League clash against Burnley this afternoon, scoring six goals and providing four assists in the process.

With the midfielder’s current contract at St Mary’s set to expire in 2023, we feel there’s a chance that Romeu could leave the club by that point, but we also believe that the Saints could already have an ideal replacement for him if he does leave.

That man is 18-year-old Ryan Finnigan, who has been described as an “excellent” player by the club’s academy director Matt Hale. A product of Southampton’s youth system, he has made 15 appearances for their under-18 side, scoring one goal, with one assist in seven games for the Saints’ B team.

Saints manager Ralph Hasenhuttl is apparently a big fan of Finnigan, who has made one senior appearance for Southampton, which came during their 2-0 win over Shrewsbury Town in the FA Cup back in January.

Moving forward, if the teenager can continue developing in Southampton’s youth sides and make the most out of any future opportunities he gets in the first team, we think he could well go on to become a regular for them in the future as a potential long-term replacement for Romeu. That might save the club millions of pounds in potential transfer fees trying to sign a new midfielder, as well as seeing him join a long list of players to come out of the club’s youth academy to go on and have big careers in the Premier League.

Everton have a buyer for Richarlison

When Rafa Benitez was given the role as manager of Everton, he was reportedly promised funds to spend.

However, as the window has played out for the Toffees, it’s becoming increasingly evident that their finances are limited.

What’s the word?

One way Everton could still spend big in the transfer market is to sell one of their assets.

Moise Kean continues to be linked with the exit door while the ongoing saga with Richarlison is rumbling on in the background.

The Brazilian was the subject of interest from Real Madrid earlier in the window with Carlo Ancelotti even holding a conversation over the phone with him.

Yet, their attraction in the player has died down and it looked as though Richarlison was set to stay at Goodison Park.

A fresh update from reporter Duncan Castles suggests that might not be the case, though.

Speaking on the Transfer Window podcast, he commented: “Kia Joorabchian has told Everton he has a club who wants to sign Richarlison. He told them to prepare for that offer and prepare to secure a replacement.”

Worrying news

If Everton lose Richarlison this summer then fans should be scared about the club’s prospects for this season.

First of all, letting him leave this late in the window gives them very little time to secure a replacement and secondly, they cannot afford to let him depart.

[snack-amp-story url= “https://www.footballfancast.com/web-stories/patterson-benitez-gossip-insigne-ndombele” title= “Check out the latest Everton transfer stories!”]

Richarlison struggled in the second half of last season, failing to assist a single goal from December onwards and not scoring in his final 12 outings.

However, he is still a vitally important player for the Merseyside outfit and has shown as much this term.

He scored 13 goals in all competitions last season and began the new campaign with a goal against Southampton.

That being said, despite picking up four points from their opening two contests of the campaign, they haven’t been too clinical in front of goal, spurning a succession of chances.

Losing the Brazil international, therefore, would not be ideal if they want to improve in this aspect.

Only Dominic Calvert-Lewin scored more goals than him in the blue of Everton last term while he’s one of a few players in the squad who can turn the course of a match instantly.

Demarai Gray has hit the ground running in Everton colours by scoring against Leeds but his record of 13 strikes in 169 games for Leicester means he shouldn’t be relied upon to be Richarlison’s successor.

If he does take his leave this summer, fans should be worried, especially with the club’s conversion rate in 2021/22.

Celtic: Anton McElhone joins Hoops

Celtic have brought in Anton McElhone as the club’s new head of sports science, report The Glasgow Evening Times.

The Lowdown: McElhone profiled

McElhone is 40 years of age and left Championship side Morton back in March following a stint as caretaker manager.

The Scot previously worked as an assistant at Bradford City and was also a fitness coach at Tottenham and American side New England Revolution.

The 4-2-3-1 style coach appears to have become Ange Postecoglou’s first backroom staff appointment, although the Hoops have yet to confirm the news on their official website.

[web_stories_embed url=”https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/web-stories/celtic-updates-13/” title=”Celtic updates!” poster=”” width=”360″ height=”600″ align=”none”]

The Latest: Celtic arrival

According to The Glasgow Evening Times, McElhone has made the move to Parkhead and takes over from Jack Nayler, who left the club for RB Leipzig back in the summer.

Well-known Celtic page @Celtic1967_com said ‘it is believed the appointment will help the players meet Ange’s high fitness demands.’

The Verdict: Much-needed

Frank McAvennie recently labelled it ‘a joke’ that Postecoglou was yet to bring in his own staff, so hopefully, the Hoops boss was involved in bringing McElhone to Glasgow.

Postecoglou admitted back in July that the club needed more sports science staff to help the squad through the season, and it seems as if they have bolstered that department with an under-the-radar move for McElhone.

You’d expect the pair to work closely at Lennoxtown, and the main aim could be to increase the fitness of the Celtic squad ahead of a busy campaign.

Rangers ready to cash in on gem

An update has emerged on Rangers and their January transfer window plans for gem Joe Aribo…

What’s the talk?

According to The Scottish Mail of Sunday journalist Gary Keown, via Ibrox News, the Gers are keen to ‘strike while the iron is hot’ by cashing in on the midfielder this month.

The report claims that he is attracting ‘strong interest’ from a number of English Premier League teams, although no potential fee is mentioned.

Infuriation

Gers fans will surely be left infuriated by this update as it suggests that the club have decided that now is the best time to sell Aribo.

However, Rangers could be headed for a major January blunder if this is the case because they would be frustrating their own supporters and weakening their side in the midst of a title battle.

Supporters will be up in arms as he has been in terrific form this season and his exit would harm Gio van Bronckhorst’s chances of winning the Premiership. He has averaged an excellent SofaScore rating of 7.20 this term, scoring six goals and providing three assists, showing that he is delivering consistently brilliant displays for the Scottish giants.

His former Charlton teammate Ezri Konsa once praised Aribo’s style of play, saying: “Having Gerrard as his manager at Rangers, that has made him go up another level.

“Joe’s style is unique. When I was with him at Charlton he did remind me for a while of a left-footed Yaya Toure. But you don’t get a lot of midfielders like Joe, there aren’t many around.

“Like Toure, for a tall guy he’s got such great feet. But that languid style he’s got is actually fairly unique in the game.”

These comments, in particular, highlight why selling Aribo could be a big disaster for the Gers. He is not a run-of-the-mill midfielder who the club could go and easily find a replica of. He is unique and replacing him in the transfer market, particularly in the winter window, could be extremely difficult, which is why selling him now would be an error.

Therefore, Ross Wilson must reverse his decision to seek a sale for Aribo and avoid striking ‘while the iron is hot’ to keep him at Ibrox. He is a crucial player for the Gers and selling him now could have a major impact on the pitch and off it in terms of the fan reaction it could bring.

Livramento disappointed in Norwich defeat

Southampton couldn’t continue the good run of form from prior to the recent international break, having won three out of their four previous league games before being beaten 2-1 today by Norwich City.

After taking an early lead with a goal from Che Adams, the Saints didn’t keep that lead for long after Norwich striker Teemu Pukki levelled the scoring just a few minutes later. Grant Hanley scored the winning goal in the second half to give the home side their second win of the season and Dean Smith’s first as their new manager.

One Southampton player who definitely had a day and performance to forget on this occasion was Valentino Livramento.

After recovering from an injury scare which forced him out of international duty, the 19-year-old played the full match at Carrow Road but only won six of his 15 duels, completed just 29 of his 38 passes (with no key passes), completed just one of his three dribbles and lost possession 17 times. He ultimately earned a disappointing overall match rating of 6.4/10, making him the lowest-rated Southampton outfield player to start the match according to SofaScore.

Since joining from fellow Premier League side Chelsea in August in a deal worth a reported £5m, Livramento has played almost every minute of Premier League action for Ralph Hasenhuttl’s side, cementing his place as their first-choice right-back.

Given his young age and the fact that the Austrian clearly trusts him to perform every week for the Saints, it would be easy to chalk down this disappointing individual performance against Norwich as a bad day at the office and just hope he can improve next time around.

However, if the youngster doesn’t manage to improve on today’s performance and keeps putting in lacklustre displays, his place in the team could be at risk going forward, especially with Hasenhuttl recently revealing that he will be rotating his side throughout the next few weeks and months to navigate the busy winter schedule.

Tottenham hit with Oliver Skipp blow

A worrying Tottenham Hotspur injury update has emerged on midfielder Oliver Skipp…

What’s the latest?

Antonio Conte has revealed that the England U21 international is not closing in on a return as he is having issues with his recovery.

He has been out of action since January and it remains to be seen when he will be able to represent the club on the pitch again.

Charlie Eccleshare tweeted: “Conte on Skipp injury: ‘Skipp is having a bit of trouble with his injury – in this moment he’s not available. I know his frustration, but this new contract shows we trust him a lot and he will be very important for the present and future.'”

[snack-amp-story url= “https://www.footballfancast.com/web-stories/read-the-latest-spurs-news-transfer-rumours-gossip-martinez-dybala-spence-conte-2” title= “Read the latest Spurs news!”]

The head coach also spoke about the youngster’s new contract at the club, saying: “I’m very happy for Skippy because we are taking about a good player, young player. A player from the academy and you know very well the importance to this club of developing players from the academy. A fantastic guy.”

Supporters will be fuming

The supporters will be fuming with this injury update as it suggests that Skipp will not be back out on the pitch any time soon for Spurs.

They will be keen to see him in the starting XI as he is ‘one of their own’ and has shown glimpses of Premier League quality in his career so far.

The gem was handed his chance in the first team this term after a sublime season on loan with Norwich in the second tier. In 45 league appearances, he averaged a SofaScore rating of 7.02 as he made 3.3 tackles and interceptions per game and helped them to win the title.

He was named in the PFA Championship Team of the Year for his efforts and carried that form over into the start of this season with Spurs as he started 14 Premier League matches before his injury and averaged a solid SofaScore rating of 6.81.

Skipp is a midfielder who mixes energy and defensive ballast with control and poise in possession and looks classy in a deep-lying role in the middle of the park. He has completed an impressive 90% of his attempted passes in the top-flight and fans will surely be keen to have his reassuring presence gracing the team again as quickly as possible.

This is why they will be fuming with this update from Conte as it is a huge blow for Spurs and Skipp and they will be hoping that he is able to overcome his issues sooner rather than later.

Tottenham injury news on Sessegnon

A medical expert has now revealed some Tottenham Hotspur injury news involving Ryan Sessegnon.

The Lowdown: Another scan

As quoted by football.london, Antonio Conte has confirmed that Sessegnon will have another scan on his hamstring in a few weeks, and will resume training if all goes well.

He also claimed that he should be able to welcome Oliver Skipp back after the international break, but it is now understood that he may have been getting carried away.

The Latest: Sessegnon worry

Speaking to Football Insider, Ben Dinnery, who runs the Premier Injuries site and has a background in medicine and data analysis, has claimed that Sessegnon’s constant injury problems are a ‘worry’, and added that it could be ‘early May’ before he returns to action:

“There have been a couple of serious issues prior to this one.

“The worry is, why does this keep on happening? We’ve heard Antonio Conte discussing a few theories about that.

“When he comes back will depend on where they are in the league at the time and also the form of the likes of Sergio Reguilon.

“This has exposed the fact that the squad isn’t blessed with a huge amount of depth. That’s a real problem these days if you pick up a few injuries.

“Return-to-play timelines, therefore, are not always black and white. But as with any player, you don’t want to bring him back too early.

“If he is out for about four weeks it could be early May before he is back in contention.”

[web_stories_embed url=”https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/web-stories/tottenham-latest-news-copy/” title=”Tottenham latest developments!” poster=”” width=”360″ height=”600″ align=”none”]

The Verdict: Cut losses

Unfortunately for Sessegnon, he never seems to be able to keep himself fit for an extended period of time, and so Spurs should really consider cutting their losses on him in the summer.

The 21-year-old has only managed one goal and two assists over three seasons in North London (£25m price tag promised.

Nonetheless, the fact that he may not play until May at the earliest means that he is going to miss at least their next five fixtures in the Premier League, and by then the Lilywhites could already be out of the top-four race, if Arsenal manage to pull clear.
