Major League Soccer has been rocked by a burgeoning controversy surrounding Casemiro's move to Inter Miami, with the LA Galaxy claiming the Brazilian midfielder pledged his loyalty to them just months before heading to Florida. The league has officially opened an investigation into the transfer to determine if tampering or rules violations occurred during the process.

Accusations against Inter Miami over the Brazilian star deal

Kyogo Furuhashi has officially completed a transfer to the LA Galaxy, leaving Birmingham City after a highly disappointing spell. The Japanese forward struggled to find his form in the Championship following his £10 million ($13m) move, which ultimately led to him missing the 2026 World Cup. Now, Furuhashi hopes to revive his career in Major League Soccer and regain his prolific goalscoring touch.

Lionel Messi and Co. remain favorites, but strong starts from Nashville, San Jose and Vancouver have the league nicely poised heading into a long break.
