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.
For a club who want to be among the world's best by 2030, this was a quiet arrival for a head coach whose deal takes us through to that date. He is, then, the man they believe can lead them to the top.
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.
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.
Myles Lewis-Skelly has been offered to Chelsea for £45m (Getty) Chelsea have rejected the chance to sign Myles Lewis-Skelly from Arsenal, according to reports. The 19-year-old started just five Premier League games last season but a strong end to the campaign saw Mikel Arteta select him in a midfield role for Arsenal’s defeat to Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League final. However, Lewis-Skelly’s hopes of securing more minutes in Arsenal’s midfield will be dented by the club’s decision to sign Bruno Guimaraes in a £75 million deal from Newcastle United. According to The Telegraph, Chelsea have been given the opportunity to sign Lewis-Skelly for £45m following an approach from an intermediary.

Myles Lewis-Skelly started five games during Arsenal’s Premier League title-winning campaign (Getty) Meanwhile, The Athletic reports that Lewis-Skelly wants to remain at Arsenal and is focused on securing a regular role under Arteta in the upcoming season. The report adds that Lewis-Skelly is not exploring a move away from Arsenal, while the club are not actively looking to sell the England international. Speaking at the end of last season, Arteta praised Lewis-Skelly’s mentality after he was overlooked for a starting role for the majority of Arsenal’s Premier League title-winning campaign. ‘I’ve been tough on him. He had a spectacular season last year when he jumped into the first team,’ Arteta said. ‘He had some difficult moments after that but he stayed very humble, very focused, very aligned with what we wanted to do, and I knew he was ready. ‘He’s been showing in training every day the opportunities that he had to play. He’s done it and today he really stepped up and I thought he had an incredible performance.’ For more stories like this, check our sport page.
