Atalanta has reached a basic agreement to sign Thomas Kristensen from Udinese for approximately €22 million plus bonuses, according to reports summarized by Football Italia.

Coventry remained afloat in the top flight for 34 years the last time they came up and Gordon Milne, the manager for nine of them from 1972, traces all of that back to the influence of Jimmy Hill.
Brian Barry-Murphy believes Yousef Salech is continuing to improve following the Cardiff City striker's lengthy spell on the sidelines last season. Despite his spell out of action, the Danish forward ended the 2025-26 season with 15 goals in 41 appearances across all competitions as Cardiff won promotion from League One . The frontman netted twice in last Saturday's 3-2 EFL Cup first-round win over Swindon Town having also scored in a 4-1 pre-season triumph over Italian giants Roma a week earlier.
There is something quite poetic about Gustavo Hamer's return to Coventry City. After signing from PEC Zwolle in 2020, it soon become clear that the midfielder was destined for the Premier League. The Brazil-born Dutchman could not have done any more - scoring the decisive goal in the play-off semi final against Middlesbrough and then levelling in the final to take Luton Town to penalties.
You can scroll down this page and see what BBC Radio Newcastle's Lee Hawthorn thinks as he ranked eight contenders. Tony: Dan Burn for captain although it's a fair point in saying you need someone consistently likely to start most/all games and that might not be our local boy. Phil: I'd go with either Malick Thiaw or Joelinton, and since we're talking modern football with "leadership groups" then I'd include Jacob Murphy, Dan Burn and Fabian Schar with the future looking towards Lewis Miley and Lewis Hall.

Brimingham City boss Chris Davies believes no side will have more of the ball than Swansea City at the Swansea.com Stadium this season. Birmingham claimed a 1-0 win EFL Cup win at Swansea last weekend despite having only 38.3% of possession. Blues boss Davies, who was assistant boss at Swansea when they were promoted to the Premier League in 2011, reckons that on home turf at least, Vitor Matos' Swans will control the ball throughout 2026-27.
Former Chelsea manager Frank Lampard is reportedly eyeing up Mykhailo Mudryk as a potential loan signing for Coventry City this summer. The Ukraine international recently made his comeback for the Blues after being suspended for almost two years for testing positive for meldonium.

Hollywood duo Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney have reportedly led Wrexham to securing the club's record signing with Premier League goalkeeper Anthony Patterson. Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney have established promotion to the Premier League as the primary target for Wrexham‘s 2026-27 campaign, continuing to invest in roster upgrades. With that goal in mind, the Red Dragons have secured the signing of goalkeeper Anthony Patterson, who reportedly arrives as the most expensive transfer in the club’s history. On Tuesday, August 11, Wrexham announced the signing of Patterson, who penned a long-term contract running through June 2030. The English goalkeeper was an integral figure in Sunderland’s recent promotion to the Premier League, logging 169 career appearances for the club. After starting 45 matches across the EFL Championship and promotion playoffs to help Sunderland reach the top flight, Patterson served as the secondary option during the 2025-26 season behind Robin Roefs. Unable to secure regular playing time in the Premier League, he spent the second half of the campaign on a six-month loan with Millwall. A product of Sunderland’s youth academy, Patterson featured 169 times for the Black Cats, allowing 189 goals while recording 51 clean sheets. Carrying two career promotions on his resume, including one to the Premier League, he is expected to take over as the primary starter to guide Wrexham toward their first top-flight appearance. We are delighted to announce the signing of goalkeeper Anthony Patterson from Sunderland AFC for an undisclosed fee.🔴⚪️ #WxmAFC— Wrexham AFC (@Wrexham_AFC) August 11, 2026 Patterson becomes Wrexham’s record transfer acquisition Since Reynolds and McElhenney officially completed their takeover in February 2021, their objective has centered on building a sustainable business while elevating Wrexham back into the professional leagues. While maintaining fiscal discipline in transfer spending, the Red Dragons have gradually expanded their budget, particularly heading into their second consecutive season in the EFL Championship. In an official club statement, Wrexham announced Patterson’s arrival “for an undisclosed fee.” However, according to transfer reporter Ben Jacobs, the fee agreed upon with Sunderland is £8 million (around $10.4 million USD), setting a new franchise record for the Welsh club. The transfer surpasses the previous record established during the 2025-26 season with the acquisition of Nathan Broadhead, when Wrexham paid £7.5 million (around $9.75 million USD) to acquire him from Ipswich Town. Ben Sheaf sits third on the club’s all-time transfer list following his £6.4 million move from Coventry City.
