Wrexham in negotiations to land Rennes ace

Wrexham are eyeing a move for Rennes star Jordan James after a disappointing start to their Championship 2025-26 campaign. The Red Dragons spent heavily in the transfer market in the summer to rebuild their squad, but lost their opening two matches against Southampton and West Brom. Thus, the Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney-owned side are now preparing to make further additions to bolster their team.

Hull City hand forgotten Man Utd defender one-year contract

Hull City have completed the signing of former Manchester United full-back Brandon Williams on a one-year deal. Williams looked set for a big career after bursting into the first team at United aged just 19 but it has not worked out that way.

Rob & Ryan watch Wrexham's first Championship home game

Wrexham co-owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney touched down to witness Wrexham’s first home match in the Championship against West Brom in front of a packed-out SToK Cae Ras. The timing couldn’t be bigger. Just a week ago, Wrexham’s Championship debut ended in heartbreak at St Mary’s when Southampton stunned them with two stoppage-time goals to snatch a 2-1 comeback. Now, the club’s glamorous backers hope the team can bounce back with three points.

Frequently asked questions

Apart from the UEFA Champions League final, you cannot buy tickets for the Champions League directly through UEFA itself. 

Instead, they are sold club-by-club among the teams competing in this year's edition. You must visit the individual club’s website for the fixture you want to attend and buy your seat from there. 

Capacity is always limited for these Champions League knockout matches, and demand often exceeds available allocation. 

In addition, fans can purchase seats on the secondary market. StubHub is one of the leading retailers for those seeking to buy tickets through alternative channels.
