What happened: Manchester City are set to complete an agreement with Nottingham Forest for a Premier League midfielder in a deal worth around €150 million. The package would clear Liverpool’s €145 million British-record transfer benchmark.

Why it matters: The move would make a major statement in Manchester City’s midfield rebuild before the 2026-27 season. It would also give Nottingham Forest a record-level return after holding firm through negotiations.

What to watch: Watch for final agreement details, medical timing and contract completion. The fee structure will determine how quickly the move is formally closed.
