Nottingham Forest owner Evangelos Marinakis has instilled a belief in promotion hero Jack Colback regarding the club's ambitious pursuit of trophies and UEFA Champions League qualification, despite recent Premier League struggles.

Manchester City leads all clubs with 19 players heading to the 2026 World Cup, yet this global presence is overshadowed by significant transfer challenges, including key departures and contract uncertainties.

Manchester United are reportedly pursuing two key Newcastle United players, Sandro Tonali and Lewis Hall, as they prepare for a significant squad overhaul ahead of their return to Champions League football.

Nottingham Forest head coach Vitor Pereira urged his players to deliver Champions League-quality football before they dismantled Sunderland 5-0 in the Premier League. The emphatic victory at the Stadium of Light lifts the Reds eight points clear of relegation danger with four games left.

Manchester United target Real Madrid's Aurelien Tchouameni to replace departing Casemiro, with Manchester City's moves potentially unlocking the deal. Hopes also rise for an electric Bundesliga forward amid midfield rebuild plans.

Level at 1-1 after the first leg, Nottingham Forest and Vitor Pereira eye progression in a high-stakes quarter-final second leg at the City Ground.
