United States men’s national team winger Cade Cowell will continue his career with Liga MX side Chivas. According to multiple reports, Chivas agreed to a $4 million transfer fee with Cowell’s club San Jose Earthquakes, and the deal is expected to be officially announced soon.

According to The Athletic’s Tom Bogert, Cowell will travel to Mexico in the following days to undergo his medical.

Chivas is known for its club policy that states only Mexican players can be on its roster. However, despite representing the U.S. and being born in California, Cowell owns a Mexican passport through his mother and is thus eligible to play for the club.

There was reportedly quite a lot of interest for Cowell in recent weeks from teams outside the United States. Greek club AEK Athens, coached by former San Jose head coach Matias Almeyda, was rumored to be keen on the 20-year-old player, but Chivas beat them to the punch.

Cowell played 23 games for Quakes last season, including 20 as a starter. He finished the season with one goal and three assists.

Cowell has been a member of the USMNT since 2021, making his debut in a 1-0 win over Bosnia and Herzegovina. Since then, he played seven more games and has one international goal on his resume.

LAFC is reportedly close to finalizing a deal for Tottenham’s veteran goalkeeper Hugo Lloris. According to The Athletic’s Tom Bogert, Lloris is expected to join the MLS side in early 2024.

Lloris has a contract with Tottenham that runs until the end of the 2023-24 season. However, the London club will allow their longtime player and former captain to leave early so he could take part in the LAFC’s preseason.

Hugo Lloris joined Tottenham from Lyon in 2012 and has since made 447 appearances for the club. However, upon the arrival of new head coach Ange Postecoglou,  Lloris lost his place on the goal and was demoted to the No. 3 option behind Guglielmo Vicario and Fraser Forster. He hasn’t played in a single game in the 2023-24 campaign.

Lloris attempted to secure a move elsewhere this past summer but failed to find a fitting option, causing him to stay with Spurs. Now, the LAFC came calling, needing a starting goalkeeper after Maxime Crepeau left the club following the 2023 season as a free agent.

Lloris hasn’t won a single trophy during his time with Tottenham, but he had much more success with France’s national team. He was part of the squad that won the FIFA World Cup in 2018 and UEFA Nations League in 2020–21. The 37-year-old, who became the country’s most-capped player in history with 145 games under his belt, retired from the international stage after the 2022 FIFA World Cup.

After seeing Gonzalo Higuain and Blaise Matuidi retire at the end of the 2022 MLS season, Inter Miami finds itself with two open Designated Player spots. And according to head coach Phil Neville, the club is aiming to make the best of this opportunity.

Speaking with the UK media outlet The Times, Neville said that among the players Inter is targeting are Paris Saint-Germain star Lionel Messi and longtime Barcelona standout Sergio Busquets.

“I’m not going to deny (it and say) there isn’t truth in the speculation that we’re interested in Lionel Messi and Sergio Busquets,” Neville shared.

“We’re always going to be linked with the best players in the world,” he added. “We had Gonzalo Higuain and Blaise Matuidi. Now we’ve got the opportunity to bring in some new designated players following their retirements.”

Both Messi and Busquets are set to become free agents at the end of the 2022-23 season in Europe, which would allow Inter to sign them without paying a transfer fee. However, the MLS side is facing an uphill battle as the duo will most likely draw interest from plenty of other clubs. PSG is rumored to have offered Messi a new deal, while Busquets is drawing interest from Saudi Arabia.

Inter Miami is entering the 2023 campaign after an encouraging run last year. They ended the regular season as the sixth seed in Eastern Conference before being eliminated by the New York City FC in the playoffs.

It isn’t a secret that superstar forward Cristiano Ronaldo is unhappy at Manchester United. Ronaldo tried to force a move during the summer and is expected to try again during the January transfer window. If he does, Inter Miami CF is reportedly ready to offer him a way out.

According to British outlet The Daily Star, Miami is eager to try and convince Ronaldo to swap the Premier League with MLS. They are ready to make him the highest-paid player in league history by far, with a figure of around $33 million annually being mentioned. Chicago Fire’s winger Xherdan Shaqiri is currently the league’s highest-paid player, with $8 million on an annual basis.

However, Inter is facing an uphill battle to make a move happen. Manchester United is reluctant to let Cristiano Ronaldo go considering that they are thin in the attacking department and don’t have much money to spend around in January on Ronaldo’s potential replacement.

It is also hard to believe that Ronaldo would be willing to come to the United States, at least now. The 37-year-old believes he can still perform at a high level and wants to join a club that can give him an opportunity to play in UEFA Champions League and compete for trophies.

 Under new Man Utd coach Erik Ten Hag, Ronaldo only nine games in all competitions and made one start in Premier League. He has managed to score only one goal so far.

The Vancouver Whitecaps are close to making a major addition to their roster ahead of the 2021 season. According to multiple reports, the MLS club is in advanced negotiations with Sporting CP over defender Bruno Gaspar.

The deal would see Gaspar join the Whitecaps on a season-long loan with an option to make the transfer permanent for $1.75 million, according to SIC Noticias.

The two clubs have several minor details to iron out, and the move could become official by the end of the week.

Gaspar can play multiple positions on both sides of the defensive line, but his preferred role is right back. This means his arrival to the Whitecaps could result in some exits as the club already has longtime starter Jake Nerwinski and youngster Javain Brown on the position.

Bruno Gaspar joined Sporting in 2018, signing a five-year deal. He played 30 games in his first season with the Portuguese powerhouse but failed to carve a role for himself on the team. This prompted the club to send him on loan to Greek side Olympiacos in 2019-20.

The 27-year-old player, who plays for Angola on an international level, also spent time with Benfica, Vitoria Guimaraes, and Fiorentina.

Inter Miami is plotting another big move ahead of the 2021 MLS season. According to multiple reports from England, Miami is in talks with legendary Stoke City center back Ryan Shawcross.

Reportedly, the MLS side has been working on this transfer for a while and feels confident that the move could be finalized in the next few days. Shawcross is also keen on coming to the United States and is working with Stoke to have his contract terminated.

Stoke’s manager Michael O’Neill recently confirmed that Shawcross, who is serving as the club’s captain since 2009, could leave the club soon.

“There is interest from an MLS club, discussions are open and forthright on that, but nothing is concluded at this minute in time,” said O’Neill. “To be fair to the player, Ryan has expressed the interest if the opportunity is given, and we as a club have to recognize what Ryan has given us in terms of service.”

If the move gets finalized, Shawcross would be playing under fellow former England international Phil Neville. Miami hired Neville as their new manager in January after previously parting ways with Diego Alonso.

Ryan Shawcross started his pro career with Manchester United but never really got an opportunity at Old Trafford. He joined Stoke City in 2007 and went on to become a club icon, playing 453 games in all competitions.

Shawcross also played for England’s national team, making his only appearance in 2012.
