LAFC close to loan deal: Dutch winger set to turn out at Club World Cup
Javairo Dilrosun could be in action at the Club World Cup. According to VoetbalPrimeur, the latest rumours suggest Los Angeles FC have signed the Dutch forward on loan from Club America. 'Dilrosun is the first – and possibly only – signing during the special transfer window for one of the three MLS clubs participating in the World Cup,' GiveMeSport claim, with Seattle Sounders and Inter Miami keeping quiet. Advertisement 'Dilrosun will bolster Los Angeles FC's attack for the Club World Cup behind star player Denis Bouanga.' Details about the potential transfer of Dilrosun, who is under contract in Mexico until the summer of 2026, were not shared. LAFC are in a group with Chelsea, Flamengo and Espérance Sportive de Tunis at the Club World Cup. Goalkeeper Hugo Lloris is among the players under contract with the American team. Dilrosun was part of the youth academies of Ajax and Manchester City and eventually ended up at Hertha BSC in his career. Via Girondins de Bordeaux he moved to Feyenoord in 2022. The Rotterdammers sold Dilrosun to Club America at the beginning of 2024. In 2018, Dilrosun played one international match for the Dutch national team in the Nations League. GBeNeFN | Max Bradfield

Countdown is on: One year until 2026 FIFA World Cup comes to Massachusetts
BOSTON (WPRI) — With a year to go until the 2026 FIFA World Cup, officials in Boston unveiled a countdown clock at Faneuil Hall. The international soccer tournament will be played in 16 host cities, including Boston. Seven games will be held at Gillette Stadium in Foxboro from June 13 to July 9, including a quarterfinal matchup. The stadium is slated to undergo extensive renovations ahead of the tournament and will temporarily be named 'Boston Stadium' for the World Cup matches. RELATED: Providence leaders 'actively involved' in conversations to host 2026 World Cup team Since the tournament is expected to bring an influx of tourists and revenue to Southern New England, Providence leaders are already warning about the level of planning that needs to be done. Providence is looking to host one of the teams after FIFA released 14 base camp options, which the organization described as a 'training site and accommodation pairing that will serve as the primary base for teams during the group stage, where they will train, rest, and prepare for their matches.' Currently, only New York and New Jersey are the closest base camp options to New England. A FIFA spokesperson told 12 News that more options will be announced later this year. Separately, the Rhode Island Emergency Management Agency (RIEMA) is meeting monthly to prepare for the matches, which will increase to bimonthly in August.

‘I didn't like the attitude': Thomas Tuchel lays into England squad after drab 1-0 win over Andorra
Thomas Tuchel had some choice words for his side after a listless win over Andorra (AFP via Getty Images) England manager Thomas Tuchel made his displeasure clear after his side laboured to a dull and dispiriting 1-0 win over Andorra, the world's 173rd-ranked side. England had several chances, particularly in the first half, but failed to break down a dogged Andorran defence, only making a breakthrough as Noni Madueke - a rare bright spark - teed up Harry Kane in the 50th minute. Advertisement The captain's 72nd international goal spared England's blushes but they could not build on their lead, with jeers accompanying their exit at half-time and a smattering of boos at the final whistle. A visibly cross Tuchel told ITV after the game, 'We're not happy with the performance, of course. We started quite well in the first 20 or 25 minutes, but that was the only time it felt like it was only a matter of time. 'We created a lot of chances, half-chances and set pieces. But we completely lost our momentum and couldn't get it back from the whole of the first half. 'There was a lack of urgency, quality and energy.' Advertisement The game was held at the RCDE Stadium in Barcelona, with Andorra's home ground not deemed ready to host, and England appeared sluggish in the heat as the match wore on. Asked about his debrief to the squad, Tuchel replied, 'It's what I've said to you just now. I told them I was most worried in the last 20 minutes because I did not like the attitude with which we ended this game. It felt almost like [he shrugged dismissively], 'We have to play it until the 93rd minute.' 'It's still a World Cup qualifier away from home. I didn't like it at all. The players know all this because I said it in the dressing-room. 'It's also necessary to have a look in detail, watch the match again, and we will let them know tomorrow what we want from them. Advertisement 'We can just admit it that it's not what we expect from us,' Tuchel continued. 'We need to look at it in detail and do better on Tuesday.' England face Senegal in a friendly next Tuesday, a significantly tougher test against potential opposition at next summer's World Cup. He offered some praise for Madueke, who had the chance to double England's lead late on, but his back-line pass drifted across the front of goal and was then not turned in by substitute Anthony Gordon. Asked whether the Chelsea player had advanced his cause to feature in next summer's squad, the German said, 'He was maybe over the course of the match the most dangerous, the most active. I could feel his hunger and desire to [follow the plan]. Yeah, he was one of the few [to follow it].'
