The 3 teams that have merged under the Northwich Victoria banner
The men's football club have now come together with Northwich Vixens women and Northwich Victoria Juniors.
While the clubs have been linked for some time, after a year of consultation and talks between the three committees it has been voted and agreed that 26 teams from the three parties would join forces to form 'a community club', creating a dedicated pathway from youth to adult football.
Vics chairman Ian Egerton hailed the move's importance.
'I'm very proud to have finally managed to bring the three fantastic clubs together in what will continue to drive our ambition to create a community club for everyone,' he said.
'At Northwich Victoria Football Club, we are proud to be part of the vibrant community sports club industry, which plays a pivotal role in promoting physical activity, community engagement, and local pride.
'Community sports clubs are essential in fostering social cohesion and providing opportunities for individuals of all ages to engage in sporting activities.
'As we prepare to launch our newly re-organised club, we recognise the increasing importance of such organisations in today's society, particularly in light of the growing emphasis on health and well-being.'
Northwich Vixens, as a result of the merger, have renamed themselves Northwich Victoria Vixens and their team manager Rebecca Francis-Jones said: 'I'm so excited for everyone involved in Northwich Victoria and now that we are one club we have a clear development pathway in place for our girls' teams to progress to our open age woman's team and the boys to our men's first team.
'This togetherness gives our club a real community focus and I am so proud to be involved and to help our club grow from strength to strength.'

Notre Dame quarterback Kenny Minchey makes a bold proclamation following Friday's practice
You love to see when your quarterback has extreme confidence, and Notre Dame's Kenny Minchey did exactly that on Friday following the second fall practice. When speaking with the media, the second-year player proclaimed that he believes that he's 'the best quarterback in the country,' as On3's Jack Soble posted on social media. It's a strong claim, but one that ultimately could come true. Minchey will have to beat out CJ Carr first, but having that kind of confidence will go a long way. Everything that we have seen from his during his limited playing time and in practices seem to suggest that he's got the skill set to lead the Notre Dame offense. He's got the running ability to make defenses account for his legs, and the throwing ability to pop the top off of a defense. It will be a very interesting battle between the two, as the competition continues this fall leading up to the season opener on the road against Miami. Head coach Marcus Freeman will have a very difficult decision to make, but Minchey is very confident in his abilities.

Official – Inter Milan Target Not In Atalanta Squad For Friendly Match Vs RB Leipzig
Ademola Lookman is not in the Atalanta squad for today's friendly match against RB Leipzig amid persistent transfer links with Inter Milan. The Nigerian is out as he reportedly recovers from a calf injury. However, the transfer saga is also in the background. I nerazzurri convocati per #RBLipsiaAtalanta 📝 Our squad list for tomorrow's game 📝#GoAtalantaGo ⚫🔵 — Atalanta B.C. (@Atalanta_BC) August 1, 2025 Inter Milan have received Atalanta's response to their second offer for forward Ademola Lookman. And it was not the one that they were hoping for. La Dea have rejected the Nerazzurri's offer of €45 million including add-ons. That is up from the €40 million bid that Inter had made a couple of weeks ago. This has left Inter frustrated. And it has also drawn the ire of Lookman himself, who has scrubbed mention of Atalanta from his Instagram account. Ademola Lookman Out Of Atalanta Squad Vs RB Leipzig BERGAMO, ITALY – MAY 12: Ademola Lookman of Atalanta warms up prior to the Serie A match between Atalanta and AS Roma at Gewiss Stadium on May 12, 2025 in Bergamo, Italy. (Photo by) In the meantime, Ademola Lookman is not in the Atalanta squad that travelled to Germany this week. New La Dea coach Ivan Juric is leading the team out in a friendly match against RB Leipzig. However, Lookman is not part of the squad available to the Croatian tactician. However, this is not the result of Lookman being imminently up for sale. Rather, the 27-year-old is still recovering from a calf issue according to reports.

Roma agree Solbakken sale to Nordsjaelland
Roma have reportedly agreed the sale of Ola Solbakken to Nordsjaelland, two and a half years since his move from Bodo/Glimt. According to Il Tempo and the player has already flown out to Norway to complete and medical and the two clubs are exchanging documents this evening. This had been an ill-fated transfer to the Stadio Olimpico as a free agent from Bodo/Glimt in January 2023. Solbakken flopped for Roma EMPOLI, ITALY – MAY 4: Ola Solbakken of Empoli FC greets the fans after during the Serie A match between Empoli and SS Lazio at Stadio Carlo Castellani on May 4, 2025 in Empoli, Italy. (Photo by) Solbakken made only 15 competitive appearances in the Giallorossi jersey, where he scored one goal and provided two assists. He went out on a series of loan spells to Olympiacos in Greece, Japanese club Urawa Reds, and spent last season in Serie A with relegated Empoli. Under contract with Roma until June 2027, this will nonetheless represent a profit for them, as he had arrived for free. It is going to be a permanent transfer and therefore get him off the Roma books. This is a return home for the Norway international, who has 11 senior caps for his country, able to play on the right, left or in a more central attacking role.
