Premier League news: Guardiola to speak after Dias pens new deal

While the opening weekend of the new Premier League season was perhaps a little light on truly eye-popping action, matchweek 2 has all the ingredients to be a classic.

Arne Slot was tight-lipped on his club's plans for the last days of the summer window when he shared his pre-match thoughts on Thursday.
