Sound of Football Podcast 471 - Nations League Finals 2021

This week's international break sees the finals of the 2021 Nations League. France, Spain, Belgium and hosts Italy battle it out to see who can become the second winners of the competition - but could they also be the last winners? With proposals for the World Cup to become a biennial event looking inevitable, could the pressures of a congested fixture calendar consign the Nations League to the history books?

We also look at the recent tribunal decision that could allow the proposed takeover of Newcastle United to finally go ahead after looking dead in the water, and we make time to welcome Claudio Ranieri back to the Premier League, as the new manager of Watford - for the time being.
