Manchester United legend Gary Neville has identified three dream transfer targets for the club this summer, including Bayern Munich's Harry Kane. Neville also named a more "realistic" trio of potential signings for the Red Devils as they strive to compete for the biggest trophies next season.
Manchester United are expected to withdraw from the race to sign Nottingham Forest star Elliot Anderson after being quoted a record-breaking £120 million fee. The Red Devils are reportedly unwilling to enter a bidding war with Manchester City, choosing instead to prioritise a more sustainable approach to their summer recruitment.
Manchester United are being linked with Bruno Guimaraes, Elliot Anderson and Aurelien Tchouameni, with Louis Saha telling GOAL who the “better fit” from that trio would be. More big money is set to be spent by the Red Devils in the next transfer window as a natural successor to Casemiro is sought in the Old Trafford engine room. Raids on Newcastle, Nottingham Forest and Real Madrid have been mooted.
Nottingham Forest playmaker Morgan Gibbs-White is reportedly mounting a serious challenge for a spot in Thomas Tuchel’s England World Cup squad following a spectacular run of form. Despite being omitted from the recent 35-man provisional group, the 26-year-old’s recent hat-trick against Burnley has reignited the debate regarding his inclusion ahead of the summer tournament.
To paraphrase the great Homer Simpson, it is not only easy to criticise, but fun, too. It is quite simple to sit and judge from this ivory tower, but hey, that's football after all, merely a game of opinions. Being a Premier League manager must be one of the loneliest gigs in the world, particularly when results are wayward and your job security is the subject of international speculation.
Former Nottingham Forest captain Henri Lansbury has explained to GOAL why the Reds boast a home game atmosphere that Premier League rivals such as West Ham could never match. The City Ground has been rocking since promotion back into the big time was secured - across domestic and European competition - with a key factor in the creation of a hostile environment being explained.
England manager Thomas Tuchel is being urged to add Morgan Gibbs-White to his World Cup plans as the Nottingham Forest No.10 offers “something different” to the likes of Cole Palmer and Phil Foden.

Elliot Anderson has become a man in demand, with former Nottingham Forest captain Henri Lansbury telling GOAL why a midfielder that already boasts “a bit of magic” can go on to become a “shining light”.

Ryan Yates is often Nottingham Forest’s tormentor in chief, while donning the captain’s armband, and former Reds skipper Henri Lansbury has told GOAL why dark arts in football are to be saluted. Every club boasts a player that divides opinion among fan bases, with characters that are loved by home supporters positively revelling in their ability to rile opponents.
Nottingham Forest legend Stan Collymore has told GOAL how Callum Hudson-Odoi can go about rediscovering his lost spark. The former Chelsea winger has earned trust from four different managers at the City Ground this season, but goals and assists have been in short supply. A “mental” block is considered to be impacting efforts to find top form, with the talented 25-year-old being urged to go back to “basics”.
Manchester City have been offered transfer advice when it comes to Rodri, with it possible that he could be replaced by “the best holding midfielder in England”. Real Madrid continue to be linked with a Ballon d’Or-winning star at the Etihad Stadium, with Gareth Barry telling GOAL what he would like to see happen in the summer window of 2026.
Chris Wood has made a timely return to action at Nottingham Forest, with Stan Collymore telling GOAL of the crucial qualities that a proven goalscorer will add to the Reds’ Premier League survival bid.

Unai Emery has provided an injury update on Emiliano Martinez after the Aston Villa goalkeeper was forced to withdraw from the starting line-up just moments before kick-off against Nottingham Forest on Sunday.

Nottingham Forest secured a hard-fought Europa League draw at the Estadio do Dragao thanks to a resilient defensive display and a stroke of luck via a Martim Fernandes own goal. Despite sustained pressure from the hosts, Forest's structure held firm to keep their semi-final ambitions on track.
Nottingham Forest secured a hard-fought 1-1 draw at the Estadio do Dragao despite being significantly out-shot by their hosts. A bizarre own goal from Martim Fernandes cancelled out an early strike from Porto's Wendel Gomes in a statistically lopsided encounter.
Nottingham Forest are reportedly preparing for the departure of star midfielder Elliot Anderson this summer, with the club expecting him to land at one of the Manchester giants. The 23-year-old has enjoyed a sensational rise since his move from Newcastle, becoming one of the most coveted talents in the Premier League.
Manchester City believe they have moved into pole position to secure the signature of Nottingham Forest star Elliot Anderson this summer.

Ange Postecoglou is considering a return to the Premier League dugout, but potential suitors remain wary. The 60-year-old manager possesses a divisive track record in England, combining Europa League success at Tottenham Hotspur with a disastrous 17th-place finish, followed by a fleeting tenure at Nottingham Forest, making his next appointment a massive risk for any club.
