And there we have it. The 2025-26 European football season is in the books, capped by Paris Saint-Germain beating Arsenal in the Champions League final to defend their continental crown. Soon the past nine months or so will become distant memories, such is the speed at which the footballing world moves on, especially when major tournaments on the horizon.
Manchester City are preparing for a transformative summer as the post-Pep Guardiola era begins to take shape at the Etihad Stadium. While speculation has linked the Premier League champions with a blockbuster move for Chelsea's Enzo Fernandez, the club's recruitment hierarchy appears to have settled on a different primary target for their midfield engine room.
Elliot Anderson boasts enough potential to become “one of the very best”, Jack Colback has told GOAL, with the in-demand Nottingham Forest star considered to be an “old-fashioned” midfielder that is capable of doing a bit of everything. That skill set is said to be attracting admiring glances from Manchester, with City and United both mulling over the merits of a big-money transfer bid.
Morgan Gibbs-White has been urged to chase a dream at Nottingham Forest that “money can’t buy”, with Jack Colback telling GOAL why the mercurial No.10 can go on to become an all-time great at the City Ground. A former team-mate of the talented England international has also explained what the 26-year-old’s “biggest attribute" is after seeing him become a Premier League superstar.
Manchester United are in the market for midfield reinforcements - amid links to the likes of Elliot Anderson, Sandro Tonali and Fede Valverde - with Eric Djemba-Djemba telling GOAL who the Red Devils’ “first choice” should be. Big money is set to be spent at Old Trafford this summer on acquiring a suitable replacement for the departing Casemiro.
The European football season is almost over. Just one game remains - the Champions League final, as Arsenal and Paris Saint-Germain prepare to do battle in Budapest on Saturday. Both sides come into the game having won their own domestic titles, with PSG looking to defend the crown they won for the first time last season, while the Gunners are aiming to secure their first European Cup.
What is the best way to travel to the City Ground?
The best way to travel to the City Ground is by public transportation or on foot, with parking limited around the stadium and surrounding residential areas. Nottingham railway station, served by the National Rail network, is within walking distance of the stadium.
In addition, the City Ground is served by buses and trams on matchdays, with Meadows Embankment the nearest stop for the latter service. To find out more information, check the club’s website.
How hard is it to get Nottingham Forest tickets?
With all season tickets for Nottingham Forest being sold out, you can expect getting matchday tickets to be fairly difficult, with home match tickets being allocated to members and season ticket holders first.
Midweek and cup games are likely to be a little easier to get hold of tickets, with tickets going on sale for members when they're available.
Can I buy Nottingham Forest tickets without a membership?

You'll find most games sell out in advance of the match, but if you're lucky, they might become available on the official Nottingham Forest website.
