Manchester United have been urged to gazump Aston Villa in the race for Real Madrid’s Brazilian sensation Endrick as the summer transfer window enters its final stages. The teenage prodigy, who arrived in the Spanish capital with immense expectations, is facing an uncertain immediate future at the Bernabeu under Jose Mourinho.

Real Madrid still love a ‘Galactico’, but ex-Blancos star Michael Owen has told GOAL that there is little chance of Kylian Mbappe and Erling Haaland forming part of a fearsome frontline at Santiago Bernabeu. Instead, it is likely to remain a case of “one or the other” when it comes to superstar forwards that now operate in the same central striking position.

Thibaut Courtois has expressed his excitement at reuniting with Jose Mourinho at Real Madrid, insisting that the veteran manager’s disciplined approach is exactly what the club needs. The Belgian goalkeeper returned to training ahead of schedule as he steps up his recovery from an injury sustained during the 2026 World Cup.

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.
