After Chelsea were knocked out of the Champions League in dramatic style, Manchester City and Liverpool will look to seal their semi-final places tonight.

We have all the build-up to their respective clashes against Atletico Madrid and Benfica, reaction to the Blues’ aggregate defeat to Real Madrid and the latest transfer news.

Champions League quarter-finals

Despite an excellent display seeing Chelsea go 3-0 up on the night at the Bernabeu, goals from Rodrygo and Karim Benzema eventually broke their hearts and sent Real through after extra-time.

We have reaction from heartbroken Timo Werner, who thought he had done enough to send the Londoners into the semi-finals when notching their third goal in the Spanish capital.

Meanwhile, boss Thomas Tuchel meanwhile was left frustrated by the referee as his side saw their defence of the European crown come to an end.

Kevin De Bruyne’s 70th-minute strike means City hold a slender 1-0 lead over Atleti heading into the second leg of their quarter-final at the Wanda Metropolitano.

Diego Simeone’s approach in Manchester was defensive even by his standards — and El Cholo may have to be more offensive on home turf if he is to mastermind a comeback.

Transfer Talk

In a much more comfortable position with a 3-1 lead over Benfica are Liverpool, who are heavy favourites to progress at Anfield.

Jurgen Klopp appears to have already bolstered his attacking ranks for next season by landing Portuguese youngster Fabio Carvalho from Fulham. 

And we take a closer look at what the talented prospect will bring to the Reds.

Plenty of other stars’ futures are yet to be decided — not least England Under-21s international Noni Madueke, who continues to light up the Dutch top flight with PSV Eindhoven.

Although ruled out of facing Leicester in the Europa Conference League tomorrow due to injury, could the former Tottenham youngster head back to England this summer with both the Foxes and Aston Villa rumoured to be interested?

Our daily transfer round-up leads on reports that Barcelona are planning on making a move for Arsenal defender Gabriel this summer.
