Elderberry & Jones Mysteries - The Phantom Footballer

A missing manager. A fake ghost. A fairy with a Liverpool shirt and a secret.

Oliver Jones and Ellie Elderberry are back-and this time, the trail of clues leads straight to the legendary Old Trafford stadium.

What was supposed to be a VIP football tour turns into another mystery when Manchester United's manager vanishes, spooky warnings echo through the halls, and a ghostly footballer begins haunting the trophy room.

With his trusty notebook and a fairy best friend who still can't say "Liverpool" properly, Oliver must uncover the truth behind the phantom before the season kicks off... or someone gets red-carded for real.
