Arsenal Dzerzhinsk Overview

Real Madrid have secured one of the biggest coups of the summer by officially confirming the arrival of Bernardo Silva on a free transfer from Manchester City. The Portuguese magician heads to the Bernabeu to lead a new era under the returning Jose Mourinho, after ending nearly a decade of dominance in the Premier League.

For some football fans, the summer is the part of the calendar that they look forward to the most - and that's not just because it's filled by a World Cup every four years! Rather, it's because the end of the season means only one thing: It's time for transfers! The 2026 window is likely to once again be bust, with some huge names set to make big-money moves before deadline day on September 1.

Manchester City remain in the hunt for Elliot Anderson, with Nottingham Forest reportedly demanding a British record transfer package of £125 million-plus ($168m) for the England international midfielder. Reds legend Stan Collymore has told GOAL how the classy 23-year-old would represent “value for money” and become an “absolute bargain”, with those concepts becoming increasingly difficult to judge in modern sport.

Marcus Rashford is facing an uncertain summer after returning to Manchester United following a loan spell in La Liga. While the forward has been linked with several European giants, a specific contract clause has now come to light that could dictate his next destination.
