<p><strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/mls" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Major League Soccer</a></strong> and <strong>Adidas</strong> have announced the 2024 collection of the “MLS Archive Collection,” paying homage to past eras of MLS teams while adding a modern twist to certain historical periods.&nbsp;</p>



<p>The worst-kept secret was <strong>Inter Miami</strong>’s third kit, which appears to be a tribute to the Miami Dolphins of the NFL, although MLS and Adidas won’t admit that.</p>



<p>The other teams participating in the Archive Collection include <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/los-angeles-galaxy" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">LA Galaxy</a>, LAFC, Portland Timbers, and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/sporting-kansas-city" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Sporting Kansas City</a>. The LA Galaxy and Sporting Kansas City kits are throwbacks to the inaugural seasons of MLS in 1996 and 1997.&nbsp;</p>



<h2>MLS Archive Kit information&nbsp;</h2>



<p>The Galaxy wore their Archive kits when Nike was their uniform supplier at the league’s inception, while Sporting Kansas City was originally known as the Wiz and later the Wizards after the 1996 season.</p>


        <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/soccer/mls-inter-miami-make-yet-another-signing-to-continue-helping-lionel-messi"></div>


<p>LAFC’s kit draws inspiration from 1970s-era Southern California iconography, while the Portland Timbers’ design pays homage to Clive Charles, a former Portland Timbers player in the 1970s and a former assistant coach for the US Men’s National Team.</p>

<p>Inter Miami’s Archive Kit, although not explicitly branded as a Miami Dolphins kit, is described by MLS as “Tapping into 1980s nostalgia, Inter Miami’s archive kit leans heavily on the vibrancy of vintage Miami style.”</p>

<p><strong>Inter Miami</strong> are signing yet another player from the Argentine league to continue helping <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lionel-messi">Lionel Messi</a></strong>. According to Argentine journalist German Garcia Grova of <em>TyC Sports</em>, the Herons are landing River Plate defender <strong>Hector David Martinez</strong> on loan.</p>



<p>The defender, known for his solid performances, will now bring his talents to Major League Soccer. Martinez’s move to the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/mls">MLS</a></strong> side is expected to bolster Inter Miami’s defensive lineup as they look to make a strong push in the league. This transfer marks a significant shift in the player’s career and adds a fresh dynamic to the team’s roster.</p>



<p>Martinez, the Argentine-born naturalized Paraguayan, brings a wealth of experience to his new team, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/inter-miami">Inter Miami</a>. His career includes multiple seasons with River Plate, a notable loan stint at <strong>Defensa y Justicia</strong>, and a total of 118 appearances with 4 goals scored. </p>



<p>Martinez is the latest addition to Inter Miami’s impressive lineup of Argentine players. He joins a roster already featuring <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lionel-messi">Lionel Messi</a>, Federico Redondo, Marcelo Weigandt, Facundo Farias, and Tomas Aviles. Under the guidance of head coach Gerardo Martino, this influx of Argentine talent promises to enhance both the experience and quality of the team’s defense. </p>

<p>According to Argentine journalist <em>German Garcia Grova</em>, Martinez is set to join Inter Miami on a one-year loan deal with an option to buy. The Paraguay international will soon travel to Miami to complete the move. Following his arrival, Martinez will undergo a medical examination before finalizing his contract with the team.</p>

MLS: Inter Miami make yet another signing to continue helping Lionel Messi - Bolavip US

<p>And it’s done. The USSF dismissed <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/gregg-berhalter" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Gregg Berhalter</a></strong>; it was long in the making and for some fans and pundits, long overdue. Berhalter became the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/us-national-team" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">USMNT</a></strong> manager under dubious circumstances, a manager with little on his CV save for one MLS Cup appearance with the Columbus Crew, a final which he lost, and a brother who worked within US Soccer. Gregg Berhalter was seen as an “<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/mls" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MLS</a> agenda” hire as a result of nepotism.</p>



<p><br>On paper, Gregg Berhalter should have been a reasonable hire for the US position, a former US international who established a very good career in Europe playing in the Netherlands, England, and Germany before arriving to end his career in MLS. On the USMNT as a player, history might have made Gregg Berhalter one of the most important players in the program’s history; it was his almost-goal against Germany in the USMNT’s 2002 World Cup quarterfinal match that was called off. To this day, no one knows why—whether it was a US goal or a German handball. The end result was the USMNT’s elimination after providing Americans with the country’s best World Cup performance in the modern era.<br></p>



<p>Known for his obsessive tactical approach to the game and his work in sports psychology, Gregg Berhalter reportedly wowed US Soccer with his vision for the program. When the 50-year-old was named as manager of the USMNT, it was met with universal disapproval by fans and pundits, and his tag as a “nepo” hire loomed large in his six years in charge.<br></p>



<h2>US Soccer Set Gregg Berhalter Up to Fail<br></h2>



<p>If Gregg Berhalter was what the program believed him to be, it might have been wise to shield him from the backlash. On paper, he was just getting his feet wet with the Columbus Crew, making an MLS Cup final after a below-average stint with Hammarby in Sweden where he posted an 18-11-17 record.<br></p>



<p>With the Crew, Berhalter also was a mixed bag of 74-70-49, making the playoffs in four of his five seasons, being runner-up in 2015. In his last season, 2018, he made it to the quarterfinals.<br></p>


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/soccer/usmnt-if-gregg-berhalter-gets-fired-who-can-coach-the-national-team"></div>


<p>Had Berhalter been hired as an assistant and molded by a more experienced coach, maybe for the 2026 cycle he could have taken over the team and embarked on a more polished project of making the USMNT a more attractive side than the bunker and counter-attacking team the program was known for.<br></p>



<h2>What Did Gregg Berhalter Get Right?<br></h2>



<p>While many would argue that Gregg Berhalter got nothing right, that is far from the truth. Berhalter was able to take a program that had hit rock bottom after failing to qualify for the 2018 World Cup and lift it up on the backs of a group of young players all in their early 20s with a few European seasons under their belts to be the core of the team.<br></p>


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/soccer/mls-2024-salaries-25-of-the-best-players-and-what-they-earn"></div>


<p>Though flawed in tactics and in-game management, Berhalter empowered <strong>Christian Pulisic, Tim Weah, Tyler Adams, and Weston McKennie </strong>to be leaders on the team. Although questions have arisen about whether some of the players were or are up to that challenge.<br></p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20240711_BUS_143841_Christian-Pulisic-of-United-States-1024x576_51203735.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="Christian Pulisic in action for the USMNT." class="wp-image-132152" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/06/Christian-Pulisic-of-United-States-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/06/Christian-Pulisic-of-United-States-300x169.jpg 300w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/06/Christian-Pulisic-of-United-States-768x432.jpg 768w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/06/Christian-Pulisic-of-United-States-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/06/Christian-Pulisic-of-United-States.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Christian Pulisic in action for the USMNT.</figcaption></figure>



<p>While World Cup qualifying was rocky in Concacaf, especially considering his inexperienced side in the 2022 cycle, Berhalter’s team played the best three games of his six years at the 2022 World Cup, going 1-0-2 in the group, defeating Iran and drawing England and Wales.<br></p>



<p>At times, the USMNT showed fluid movement and nice combination play, but once the team played a more polished and experienced side like the Netherlands, it was all she wrote—the Dutch made short work of the USMNT in a 3-1 win in the round of 16. All in all, it was about as good as a World Cup as one could ask from a nation that four years earlier was sliding down a hole, fast.<br></p>



<p>Off the field, Berhalter and his team were able to convince various dual nationals to join the program, <strong>Antonee Robinson, Yunus Musah, Folarin Balogun, and Sergiño Dest</strong> being his best catches, many of whom had represented the US at the youth level but had viable options to play for other, more established countries.<br></p>



<p>He also got lucky as <strong>Johnny Cardoso</strong> and his family took it upon themselves to inform US Soccer of their existence. To his credit, Berhalter brought Cardoso into the fold, given the federation’s notoriously poor history at even engaging dual nationals playing in South America.<br></p>



<p>While many of the dual nationals were also in their early 20s, a critique can be made that it has become US Soccer’s crutch to just find dual nationals to fill the void left behind by a program that is struggling to produce high-level talent at the MLS and US territory level.<br></p>



<h2>What Did Gregg Berhalter Do Wrong?<br></h2>



<p>Gregg Berhalter never was able to read the room, at times in his press conferences over explaining every decision he made, from leaving Ricardo Pepi off of the World Cup roster to going into detail as to why John Brooks was not called in.<br></p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20240711_BUS_143841_Giovanni-Reyna-1024x576_8b0127af.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="Giovanni Reyna" class="wp-image-112701" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/03/Giovanni-Reyna-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/03/Giovanni-Reyna-300x169.jpg 300w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/03/Giovanni-Reyna-768x432.jpg 768w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/03/Giovanni-Reyna-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/03/Giovanni-Reyna.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Giovanni Reyna (USA)</figcaption></figure>



<p>His biggest failure was the whole situation with Gio Reyna post-World Cup, exposing one of his most talented players, which eventually would end in personal issues from Gregg Berhalter’s past being exposed and also tarnishing the reputation of another USMNT legend Claudio Reyna in exposing the “soccer parent” aspect of US Soccer.<br></p>



<p>On the field, Berhalter’s US team never lived up to expectations of a team that played fancy and fluid soccer. Often being exposed by more talented teams, and having enormous difficulties winning on the road against Concacaf level opposition.<br></p>



<p>Gregg Berhalter’s in-game management was also questionable, often having many of his game plans blow up in his face, and many times needing come-from-behind wins in key matches.<br></p>



<p>After the 2022 World Cup, one could say Gregg Berhalter’s stock was high, reaching the round of 16, holding England to a draw and looking good doing it, and having won two Concacaf continental titles, and owning Mexico, the manager could have walked into the sunset as a manager who put US Soccer, while flawed at times, back on the map.<br></p>



<p>Instead, Gregg Berhalter stayed on after a ridiculous coaching search conducted by the federation to land back at Berhalter almost six months after he left the program. His second stint was vastly underwhelming, winning seven games, losing six, and drawing just one.<br></p>


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/soccer/amid-fan-protest-steve-cherundolo-reportedly-local-front-runner-for-usmnt"></div>


<p>Berhalter’s record against top 20 teams not named Mexico was abysmal, with highlights being draws against England, Uruguay, and Brazil being considered “milestones”.<br></p>



<h2>The Gregg Berhalter Era<br></h2>



<p>Time will eventually put Gregg Berhalter in his place as a manager who was under qualified to coach the USMNT at the time he was hired and who helped the team punch above their weight at the 2022 World Cup.<br></p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="572" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20240711_BUS_143841_Gregg-Berhalter-and-Tim-Ream-1024x572_95729f54.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=572" alt="" class="wp-image-12029" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/06/Gregg-Berhalter-and-Tim-Ream-1024x572.jpg 1024w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/06/Gregg-Berhalter-and-Tim-Ream-300x168.jpg 300w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/06/Gregg-Berhalter-and-Tim-Ream-768x429.jpg 768w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/06/Gregg-Berhalter-and-Tim-Ream.jpg 1280w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure></figure>



<p>Not being able to get the most out of a generation of US players playing in some of the top leagues in the world, but also having to manage those young players while many of them were non-factors at those clubs at times.<br></p>



<p>It was not a perfect road for Gregg Berhalter, but he still managed to win three championships with the USMNT, making him, along with Bruce Arena, as the program’s all-time winningest manager when it comes to titles.<br></p>



<p><strong>Gregg Berhalte</strong>r<strong>’s era can best be described as “getting back on track”, but when fans, media, and even the players themselves began to demand the team play to a much higher standard, Gregg Berhalter came up way too short.</strong></p>

For <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/inter-miami">Inter Miam</a>i</strong>, the continuity of the MLS has not been the best alternative, <strong>as they lost two of their main figures, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lionel-messi">Lionel Messi</a> and Luis Suárez</strong>, who are playing the tournament with their respective national teams of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/argentina"><strong>Argentina</strong></a> and <strong>Uruguay</strong>. This absence has also cost them the lead in the Eastern Conference, which is now held by Cincinnati with a one-point advantage.</p>



<p><strong>In the midst of other news surrounding the club</strong>, an unusual operation was confirmed on Tuesday: <strong>the sale of the first player trained at the Inter Miami Academy</strong>. This is <strong>Edison Azcona, a 20-year-old Dominican soccer player</strong>, who was on loan at Las Vegas Lights, a team in the USL (Second Division of American soccer), and <strong>whose purchase option has been exercised by the club</strong>.</p>



<p><strong>“Edison played an important role in our history through a number of milestones:</strong> he was a member of the Academy’s inaugural generation, he played in the first game in the history of an Inter Miami Academy team, he was one of our first local signings and he was our first homegrown player to play in a First Team match. We are very proud of everything he achieved with us and wish him all the best in this next phase of his career,” said Chris Henderson, the club’s sporting director.</p>



<h2>Edison Azcona: A valuable homegrown player</h2>



<p><strong>Azcona made his MLS debut at just 17 years old in 2021</strong>, in a match against Nashville, becoming the <strong>first Academy player to do so</strong>. He also made history with his country’s national team, being one of the figures of the team that qualified for the U-20 World Cup that was played last year in Argentina and where <strong>he scored the first goal of a Puerto Rican team in a World Cup, without distinction of category</strong>.</p>

<p><strong>“The Club would like to thank Azcona for his contributions on and off the field during his time at Inter Miami and wishes him the best in the future,” </strong>reads the statement with which Inter Miami said goodbye to him on Tuesday.</p>



<h2>Inter Miami will also have Olympic representation</h2>



<p><strong>Once Lionel Messi and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/luis-suarez">Luis Suárez</a> return to the team</strong>, Inter Miami will see two other players leave from Gerardo Martino’s squad: <strong>Benjamín Cremaschi and Diego Gómez</strong>, called up to represent the <strong>United States</strong> and <strong>Paraguay</strong> respectively in the <strong>Olympic Games</strong>.</p>



<h2>Messi’s earrings</h2>



<p><strong>As has happened throughout the Copa América</strong>, Inter Miami will be eager for <strong>Lionel Messi to win a final</strong> and expectant that there may be, <strong>if <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/mls">Uruguay</a> also gets its ticket this Wednesday</strong>, a match for the title with <strong>double representation of the club that includes Luis Suárez</strong>.</p>

<p><strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/atlanta-united" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Atlanta United</a></strong> took the term “rebuilding” and literally applied it; few <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/mls" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MLS</a> </strong>clubs have done such a massive clearing of the roster as the Five Stripes have done this summer, selling three of its best players and possibly looking to offload more.</p>



<p>The days of <strong>Tata Martino</strong> and that MLS Cup are long gone; the club has fallen into mediocrity, and the rebuild under Garth Lagerwey has truly begun. After meager results, the team is now looking for a head coach and preparing to embark on the summer transfer window with a lot of roster flexibility.</p>



<p>Not only that, but Atlanta United is set to earn a transfer fee from a player who left the club more than two years ago. Here are the total transfer fees that Atlanta United is set to cash in on, </p>



<h2>Atlanta United’s Wild Summer Transfer Window</h2>



<p>According to Tom Bogert, the following players have been transferred or will be transferred in the coming days:</p>


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/soccer/lionel-messi-and-the-mls-all-star-game-roster"></div>


<ul><li><strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/thiago-almada" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Thiago Almada</a></strong>, the only active MLS player to win the World Cup while in the league, has been sold to the Eagle Football Group and will go to Botafogo for six months before a move to France for a fee of $21 million plus $9 million in add-ons.</li></ul>



<ul><li>Disgruntled striker <strong>Giorgos Giakoumakis</strong> was sold to Liga MX side Cruz Azul for $10 million. All that remains is the signature and agreement for defender <strong>Caleb Wiley</strong>, 19, who will be sold to Chelsea for $11 million.</li></ul>



<ul><li>Out of the blue, former DP <strong>Esequiel Barco</strong> will be sold from River Plate to Spartak Moscow, with Atlanta United still set to receive $11 million from the sale of Barco from Atlanta United to River Plate, plus a sell-on fee received from his transfer from River Plate to Spartak Moscow.</li></ul>

<p>What approach Atlanta United will take remains to be seen, as the club may have put the era of big young signings being sold to Europe to rest in favor of more “MLS” win-now signings.</p>

Atlanta United set for blockbuster outgoing transfers

<p><strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/thiago-almada" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Thiago Almada</a> </strong>is on the verge of a significant transfer to <strong>Brazil</strong>, which is expected to pave the way for a move to Europe. According to multiple sources, Almada is likely to join Botafogo in Brazil for six months before transferring to Olympique Lyon in January 2025.</p>



<p>This move is designed to help Almada transition from <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/mls" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MLS</a></strong> football before his anticipated move to Europe. Almada may have already played his final MLS game on June 30th, potentially marking his departure as one of the league’s highest-profile outgoing transfers.</p>



<p>As <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/argentina" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Argentina</a></strong> prepares to face Ecuador in the quarterfinals on Thursday, Almada will not be part of the squad.</p>



<h2>When will Thiago Almada play for Argentina?</h2>







<p>Thiago Almada has made a name for himself as a standout performer for the Argentine U-23 team, earning a crucial role in their upcoming campaign at the Summer Olympics. His impressive form and contributions in the youth setup have solidified his position as a key player for Argentina, prompting Scaloni to prioritize his involvement in the Olympic squad over the Copa America.<br></p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20240703_BUS_140417_Thiago-Almada-1024x576_37224392.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="" class="wp-image-104482" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/02/Thiago-Almada-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/02/Thiago-Almada-300x169.jpg 300w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/02/Thiago-Almada-768x432.jpg 768w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/02/Thiago-Almada-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/02/Thiago-Almada.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Thiago Almada</figcaption></figure>



<p>This strategic decision underscores Almada’s importance to Argentina’s youth development program and his potential impact on the international stage. While Thiago Almada will not feature in the Copa America, his focus will be squarely on representing Argentina at the Summer Olympics.</p>

<p>It’s been a long discussion in the making: who can take over from <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/gregg-berhalter" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Gregg Berhalter</a></strong> the day he either leaves, steps down, or is fired by US Soccer? Well, that conversation is heating up as blood continues to boil within the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/us-national-team" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">USMNT</a> soccer online and media community.</p>



<p><br>Gregg Berhalter’s overall record as coach of the <strong>USMNT</strong> is 44-17-13. On paper, that’s not bad. The problem arises when you dissect it further. While Gregg Berhalter did win three continental titles with the USMNT, the biggest one, the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/copa-america" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Copa America</a>, was an utter disaster as his team struggled more and more to generate chances as the tournament progressed.<br></p>



<p>If Gregg Berhalter is indeed fired, who can step in and take over the national team? It’s a question that can be answered by some of the names currently circulating.<br></p>



<p><strong>Pellegrino Matarazzo</strong><br></p>



<p>Pellegrino Matarazzo, a New Jersey native, is currently on his third coaching job in Germany. It’s admirable for an American to have been given three chances to coach in Germany, but despite a bunker-ball style and experience in relegation fights, Pellegrino Matarazzo hasn’t really proven himself in coaching big matches at major competitions. His contract with TSG Hoffenheim, where he has a record of 20-23-9, ends in June 2025.<br></p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="572" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20240702_BUS_139989_Pellegrino-Matarazzo-1024x572_456f1cd8.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=572" alt="" class="wp-image-139991" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/Pellegrino-Matarazzo-1024x572.jpg 1024w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/Pellegrino-Matarazzo-300x168.jpg 300w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/Pellegrino-Matarazzo-768x429.jpg 768w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/Pellegrino-Matarazzo.jpg 1280w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Pellegrino Matarazzo</figcaption></figure>



<p><strong>David Wagner</strong><br></p>



<p>Former dual-national David Wagner has been primarily based in England. His tenure at Huddersfield Town was considered his best work, earning promotion to the Premier League. Wagner’s last coaching stint was with Norwich City, where he was sacked after failing to secure Premier League promotion. Wagner’s overall managerial record is 170-182-121.<br></p>


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/soccer/usmnt-if-gregg-berhalter-gets-fired-who-can-coach-the-national-team"></div>


<p><strong>Wilfried Nancy</strong><br></p>



<p>In just four years in MLS, Wilfried Nancy has become one of the league’s top coaches. Nancy helped turn CF Montréal around despite ownership issues, but it was with the Columbus Crew where he made his mark, particularly for his tactical acumen, a rarity in MLS. Nancy has won one Canadian Championship and one MLS Cup, and led the Crew to a CONCACAF Champions League final, defeating teams like Tigres and Monterrey.<br></p>



<p><strong>Jim Curtin</strong><br></p>



<p>The long-standing head coach of the Philadelphia Union knows the American soccer landscape inside out, having worked with many USMNT players and reaching the MLS Cup in 2022. However, Curtin has yet to translate his strong regular season performances and talent development into championships.<br></p>



<p><strong>Marcelo Gallardo</strong> (out of the park hire) <br></p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="572" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20240702_BUS_139989_Marcelo-Gallardo-1024x572_9faa5dc9.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=572" alt="" class="wp-image-3773" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/05/Marcelo-Gallardo-1024x572.jpg 1024w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/05/Marcelo-Gallardo-300x168.jpg 300w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/05/Marcelo-Gallardo-768x429.jpg 768w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/05/Marcelo-Gallardo.jpg 1280w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Marcelo Gallardo</figcaption></figure>



<p>The Argentine coach is currently available after parting ways with Saudi Pro League side Al-Ittihad. It was Gallardo’s toughest stint as a manager; prior to that, he led River Plate to 14 championships and secured his first coaching title with Nacional in Uruguay. Gallardo has been named South American Manager of the Year three times (2018, 2019, 2020). </p>



<p>Why would Gallardo consider the USMNT job? His son plays for Atlanta United’s reserve team, and despite his success in South America, major European clubs have not come calling. </p>


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/copa-america/conmebol-reveals-usmnt-uruguay-var-goal-call"></div>


<p>With just two years to prepare the USMNT for the World Cup, Gallardo’s expertise in knockout competitions could propel the team to significant success, fulfilling his ambition to achieve a European football destination after the World Cup. </p>

Lionel Messi and the MLS All-Star game roster

<p>In a rarity for <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/mls" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Major League Soccer</a></strong>, one of its biggest stars, <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/thiago-almada" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Thiago Almada</a></strong>, will be sold not to a club, but to Eagle Football Holdings, a trend increasingly seen with conglomerates in the sport of soccer.</p>



<p><br>Almada’s time in MLS has been excellent, scoring 26 goals and providing 24 assists in 83 games. However, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/atlanta-united" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Atlanta United</a> has been on a downward spiral since his arrival, and his sale marks the end of a major signing from South America who would later be sold era.<br></p>



<p>According to numerous sources, Almada will likely move to <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/botafogo" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Botafogo</a> in Brazil for six months before heading to Europe to join Olympique Lyon in January 2025. The move to Brazil is intended to transition Almada out of the MLS mold before his anticipated big move to Europe.<br></p>



<h2>Where does Almada’s transfer rank in MLS history?<br></h2>


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/soccer/mls-2024-salaries-25-of-the-best-players-and-what-they-earn"></div>


<p>Thiago Almada’s transfer from Atlanta United to Eagle Football Holdings could potentially reach a record fee in MLS history, likely in the $30 million range, consisting of $21 million plus $9 million in add-ons.<br></p>

He adopted a page from “<strong>Between Two Ferns with Zach</strong> <strong>Galifianakis</strong>,” posing quirky questions to some of MLS’s prominent figures.</p>



<p>The first of these clips featured Toronto FC star <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lorenzo-insigne" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Lorenzo Insigne</a></strong>, where Twellman asked the former Napoli striker whether he would prefer a seven-day cruise with Bob Bradley, whom Insigne reportedly clashed with, or teammate Federico Bernardeschi, with whom Insigne had issues.</p>



<p>The questions elicited laughter from the forward. Twellman then engaged in a similar exchange with Inter Miami’s <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/benjamin-cremaschi" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benjamin Cremaschi</a></strong>, who also responded with humor.</p>

<p>During their chat, Twellman inquired about Lionel Messi’s coffee preferences. Cremaschi humorously replied, “<strong><em>I don’t think Messi drinks coffee, he drinks mate.</em></strong>”</p>

<p><strong>Diego Gomez</strong>, who is currently sidelined due to injury, aims to recover in time for <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/inter-miami" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Inter Miami</a></strong> before Paraguay’s Summer Olympic tournament begins. The young talent arrived at Inter Miami last season to mixed reviews. During the offseason, Gomez shone for Paraguay U-23, securing their Olympic qualification.</p>



<p>Upon returning to <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/mls" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Inter Miami</a>, Gomez showed significant improvement, tallying 2 goals and 2 assists in nine games before his injury. Since joining in the summer of 2023, the dynamic winger has accumulated 4 goals and 3 assists in just 25 games.</p>



<p>The prospect of Gomez staying until the end of the season is now uncertain as he has attracted considerable interest. Reports indicate that Brighton has already initiated formal discussions with Inter Miami.</p>



<h2>Diego Gomez to Brighton?</h2>


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20240103#BUS#95726"></div>


<p><strong>According to César Luis Merlo, Brighton made an initial offer of $8.5 million for Gomez, which was rejected by Inter Miami.</strong> An improved offer is expected soon, and if favorable, it may be accepted. However, there are no reports indicating whether Gomez will stay for the season or depart as early as the start of the Premier League season.</p>

<p>Gomez is renowned for his passing accuracy, dribbling skills, and defensive contributions. He is known to control the tempo of the game, initiate attacks from midfield, and has formed a good partnership with Federico Redondo and, of course, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lionel-messi">Lionel Messi</a>.</p>

Now Tata Martino’s side is looking toward Europe to fill the void.&nbsp;</p>



<p>According to various sources, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/manchester-united" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Manchester United</a> defender <strong>Raphaël Varane</strong> is on the club’s radar. Varane is out of contract with the Red Devils; the 31-year-old played in 22 Premier League games this season.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Raphaël Varane’s wage demands would be considerable, but according to Fabrizio Romano, the MLS club inquired about Varane’s availability and wage demands. No formal negotiations have taken place, but the former France defender is on the wishlist.</p>



<h2>Raphaël Varane’s form&nbsp;</h2>


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/soccer/boca-juniors-all-in-for-fc-dallas-alan-velasco"></div>


<p>Raphaël Varane played a total of 32 games last season for Manchester United, scoring 1 goal. Varane has been with the Red Devils for three seasons, playing a total of 95 games and scoring 2 goals, and winning two championships.&nbsp;</p>
