Michael Dawson is welcome at Nottingham Forest whenever he wants, and fans of a certain age have never seen a player like him play at the City Ground. Dawson spent two seasons at the club as a player, and Forest is a club close to the heart of the man who represented England four times throughout his career. The Premier League resumes on Saturday, following a summer spent watching Euro 2024 and the Olympics, and it cannot come soon enough. Forest will want to put the previous two seasons in the Premier League behind them and focus this season on…

According to Gazet van Antwerpen, Southampton has made an offer for Mandela Keita, while Leeds United is also interested in signing him. The Belgian tabloid stated on their website on August 13 that the deal had been turned down, but Royal Antwerp is willing to allow the midfielder depart before the transfer deadline, and the Saints are “serious” in signing him. The Whites are one of several clubs interested in the 22-year-old, including Blackburn, Norwich, and Nottingham Forest, as well as Manchester United at one point. Daniel Farke is expected to sign a replacement for Glen Kamara following the Finn’s…
Crysencio Summerville’s exit has underlined Leeds United’s current lack of options out wide, as well as the problem of replacing his goals and assists. The 22-year-old completed a £25 million move to West Ham, with the price potentially exceeding £30 million if Summerville achieves certain performance-related add-ons and earns his first cap for the Netherlands in due course. His move comes after winning the Championship’s Player of the Season title, following a season in which he scored 21 goals and assisted on another 10. Summerville was a game changer for Leeds last season. Leeds now lack options out wide after…
It has been nearly a month since Leeds United made a signing. Jayden Bogle’s £5 million transfer from Sheffield United on July 20 marks Leeds’ most recent signing of the summer, in a depressing turn of events. Leeds had planned to complete the great majority of their business well before the conclusion of the window, but the extended wait for signing number five has forced them to scramble once again. Daniel Farke wants to bring in at least three new faces by the August 30 deadline, and that number could climb if more players are sold. Farke is eager to…
Liverpool may rethink several plans after failing to sign Martin Zubimendi. Liverpool’s hunt for their first signing of the summer transfer window continues. Head coach Arne Slot has yet to add to his roster since taking over, with the Reds missing out on Martin Zubimendi. The midfielder has decided to remain with Real Sociedad. Richard Hughes, the sporting director, must now start from nothing. The rejection from Zubimendi may have an impact on Liverpool’s future intentions. Here’s how things could alter for Liverpool before the transfer market closes on August 30th. Focus on a new forward. Given that Liverpool were…
Nottingham Forest are completing their squad ahead of the transfer season, and the club is still looking to offload a number of players. Although the Reds have only bought six new players this summer, they are still suffering the impact of a frantic few months since returning to the Premier League. Emmanuel Dennis, Joe Worrall, and Josh Bowler will all be permitted to leave the club if offers are received before the transfer deadline. Then there’s the B-Team, which is riddled with players who could benefit from loan stints away from the club – or, in some circumstances, would welcome…
Nottingham Forest has added a new senior figure to the club. Miran Pavlin has joined Evangelos Marinakis’ Reds as an international sports advisor. Pavlin, 52, joins the City Ground after serving as Sporting Director of the Slovenian Football Association for the last four years. The club confirmed his appointment in a statement, which read: “Pavlin’s role will see him develop sporting initiatives around the world, support the expansion of the club’s international scouting network, and build international institutional relationships as the cub continues to grow globally.” “Pavlin brings tremendous experience to Trentside, having spent the previous four years as sporting…
Leeds United striker Patrick Bamford is fit to face Middlesbrough, although he is not “in his prime” after a long layoff, according to manager Daniel Farke. The Whites manager stated in his pre-match news conference [13 August] that he had a completely healthy team to pick from for his side’s EFL Cup first-round match, but noted that Bamford had missed 11 weeks of pre-season training. Bamford’s knee injury, sustained near the conclusion of last season, forced him to miss United’s play-off drive and necessitated extensive rehabilitation ahead of the new season. According to LeedsLive (13 August), Farke stated that “[the…
Farke will ring the changes this night. Daniel Farke made six changes to a Leeds United team that was in disarray after a three-day turnaround from Championship to League Cup competition a year ago. Before Tuesday’s press conference, you would have expected fewer changes from the German for tomorrow’s match against Middlesbrough, but Farke virtually signaled the necessity for more rotation at Elland Road. Nine moves may seem excessive, especially given that Middlesbrough will ask far more questions than Shrewsbury Town did. Karl Darlow, a goalkeeper many Championship clubs would rate as their number one, will undoubtedly make his fourth…
Dejan Ljubicic appeared to be Leeds United’s top choice midfielder this summer. The Whites are looking for a more attacking number eight, and FC Koln’s Ljubicic was a target early in the transfer window. Leeds made an unsuccessful £3.3 million deal for Ljubicic, and all indicators pointed to a second bid, similar to how they did to recruit Jayden Bogle from Sheffield United. However, nothing has changed since then, with Leeds opting to explore other targets due to the amount Koln is requesting to sell him. Much of the attention in recent weeks has focused on who Leeds would sign…
