Mainz cautious over Nadiem Amiri injury
As reported by Bild, what sounded like a minor issue is still troubling Amiri. After returning from his summer break, the German ended training early on Wednesday. The following day, Amiri wasn't on the pitch at all due to 'load management,' and on Friday he was absent from their friendly against Mainz' 4-0 win over Bayern Alzenau – instead completing a training session with the reserves.

When pushed on what the specific injury is, Bo Svensson cites several injuries: 'adductor problems' become 'public bone inflammation' and sometimes 'back problems.'
When questioned by Bild, Svensson reassured fans: 'We're just being cautious. Nadiem wanted to play 20 minutes on Friday, but I told him that didn't make sense.'

Inter Milan & Italy Midfielder Edging Closer To Recovery After Undergoing Abdominal Surgery
Inter Milan midfielder Davide Frattesi is making steady progress in his recovery following recent surgery. According to Sky Sport via FCInterNews, the 25-year-old's recovery is progressing beyond expectations. Davide Frattesi recently underwent abdominal surgery. Indeed, he had to watch from the sidelines as Inter embarked on a new era under Cristian Chivu. Frattesi wasn't part of the squad that failed to make it out of the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup. Inter Milan Ace Davide Frattesi Close to Recovering from Injury MILAN, ITALY – MARCH 30: Davide Frattesi of FC Internazionale looks on during the warm up prior to the Serie A match between FC Internazionale and Udinese at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza on March 30, 2025 in Milan, Italy. (Photo by) Despite being close to leaving San Siro during Simone Inzaghi's tenure, Frattesi looks set for a more prominent role. Chivu's formational change will benefit the former Sassuolo midfielder. Furthermore, he could leapfrog Henrikh Mkhitaryan in the pecking order. Frattesi's rehabilitation started yesterday. But he should not return to the fold before mid-August. Indeed, the goal is to have him back for Inter's final pre-season friendly against Olympiacos. Meanwhile, Yann Bisseck, Hakan Calhanoglu, Benjamin Pavard, and Piotr Zielinski returned to training earlier today. However, all four are working individually as they're recovering from injuries.

Jorell Hato to Chelsea, Giovanni Reyna to Parma — Transfer news, rumors
Top young players from both the United States and the Netherlands may soon be swapping leagues. United States men's national team midfielder Giovanni Reyna and Dutch defender Jorell Hato are being linked with moves to the Premier League and Serie A this week. MORE — Man United announce Mbeumo | Liverpool unveil Ekitike Reyna is in dire need of change of scenery following a long fall out of favor at Dortmund, while Hato has propelled up the ranks at Ajax and could be set for a new, bigger challenge. Jorrel Hato from Ajax to Chelsea Ajax defender Jorrel Hato has a solid resume for his age and may be adding Premier League player to his CV. Hato, 19, already has six caps for the Netherlands and has piled up 111 senior appearances for Ajax between left back and center back. The flank seems his destiny judging by his Dutch career as well as his two goals and six assists in the Eredivisie last season. Hato's agent is certainly interested in moving this along, via Sky Sports: "Yes, the club has contacted Ajax. The only thing I can say is that Jorrel is now in talks with Chelsea." Hato is an elite passer who is strong in the air, and he fits the profile of a young PL prospect. Marc Cucurella remains the top left back at Chelsea but Hato's versatility makes him perfect for cover at multiple positions as the Blues participate in so many competitions. USMNT's Giovanni Reyna from Dortmund to Parma The only thing certain when it comes to Giovanni Reyna is he needs to go somewhere where he'll be made a priority player. Reyna turns 23 in November and further away from the USMNT picture for next summer's World Cup than anyone would imagined a few years ago. He played just 12 minutes at the Club World Cup this summer, and has not featured for several Dortmund managers. Reyna played more than 2,500 minutes as a teenager in Dortmund's 2020-21 season, but injuries cost him much of the next season before the 2021-22 campaign saw him score seven times in a resurgent performance. Edin Terzig, Nuri Sahin, interim boss Mike Tullberg, and Niko Kovac have all kept Reyna down the depth chart in favor of others, and the USMNT player simply has to find a route to regular playing time. Reyna has earned just one cap since going to 90 minutes for the USMNT in the final match of the 2024 Copa America — a 21-minute sub's run against Canada in the Nations League third place game. Parma survived Serie A relegation by two points and new boss Carlos Cuesta, the 29-year-old former Arsenal assistant, is seeking to make a name for himself and some stars in the process. Given Reyna's acumen, this could be as good — and relatively low-profile — as spot as any to jumpstart a once-shimmering career.

Official: Juventus sell Mbangula to Werder Bremen
Juventus have officially confirmed the sale of Next Gen graduate Samuel Mbangula to Bundesliga side SV Werder Bremen on a permanent deal after one season in the Bianconeri first-team. Juventus have confirmed that Werder Bremen will pay a fee of €10m over four instalments, plus bonuses of up to €2m. The Bianconeri have also confirmed that the sale of the recent Belgium international has raised €6.9m in capital gains. The 21-year-old has reportedly signed a five-year contract in northern Germany, which will run until the summer of 2030. Werder had an initial bid of €8m plus add-ons turned down by The Old Lady just over a week ago, according to reports in Italy. Official: Mbangula joins Werder Bremen from Juventus Mbangula leaves Juventus after a five-year association that began with his transfer from Anderlecht in the summer of 2020. He spent four years with the Primavera and Next Gen teams, before being thrown into the first-team set-up under Thiago Motta at the start of the 2024-25 season. Mbangula marked his first competitive start in the Juve senior side with the team's opening goal of the 2024-25 Serie A season in a 3-0 win over newly-promoted Como in the first weekend of the season. Samuel Mbangula Tshifunda of Juventus (Photo by) He would go on to score three Serie A goals last season, plus another against PSV Eindhoven in the Champions League. Only Kenan Yildiz (six), Khephren Thuram and Dusan Vlahovic (both five) provided more Serie A assists than the Belgian last term (four). 'We are very pleased that we were able to sign Samuel and that he has made a long-term decision to join Werder,' said Peter Niemeyer, sporting director at Werder Bremen. He continued: 'We see a lot of potential in him. He enjoyed an excellent education in Belgium and especially at Juve and proved his quality at the highest level with Juventus' professionals last season. 'For us, this is a transfer that we have implemented with full conviction. We have always said that we are also willing to invest if we are convinced of a player and his potential. This is absolutely the case with Samuel. We are convinced that he will help us directly with his quality.'
