Al Ettifaq U18 Overview

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 once again proving to be busy, with some huge names making big-money moves before deadline day on September 1.

Manchester City have taken a significant step in their summer recruitment by confirming an agreement to sign Nottingham Forest midfielder Elliot Anderson. The 23-year-old is set to become the latest high-profile arrival at the Etihad Stadium as the Premier League champions continue to bolster their engine room.

Sandro Tonali appears to be edging closer to a blockbuster exit from Newcastle United as Tottenham ramp up their efforts to land the Italian international. With personal terms already on the table, the north London club is prepared to break records to secure the midfielder’s signature.

While Kalvin Phillips’ bank balance will be “looking well”, fellow Leeds United academy graduate Matt Kilgallon has told GOAL why the Manchester City flop risks finding himself in a position where “nobody wants you”. The former England international has become stuck in a serious rut, with the right call needing to be made this summer in order to get his career back on track.
