Attention América de Cali: Racing eyeing up Duván Vergara
América de Cali is in the midst of defining the League, while having on the horizon the challenge of the round of 16 of the Copa Sudamericana, against Bahía.
But the squad led by Jorge Da Silva could suffer significant losses for the next semester.

The journalist also clarified that América de Cali is not willing to negotiate until the end of the season.
Racing Club qualified for the round of 16 of the Copa Libertadores, to be played in August, and intends to strengthen itself to compete in the continental tournament. It is also said that Racing and América maintain direct contact, without agents or intermediaries, due to the agreement made last year for Juan Fernando Quintero.
For América, it would be a very significant loss, considering one of the most unbalancing players in the squad, as well as an experienced reference.
In addition to Racing, it has also been reported that Duván Vergara would be on the radar of his rival in Avellaneda, Independiente de Vaccari, and he could also be sought after from Brazil.

Migrant DHS accused of threatening Trump was framed: Prosecutors
A Wisconsin inmate is facing charges over allegations he forged threatening letters against President Trump in an effort to frame a potential witness in an upcoming criminal trial and get him deported before he could testify. Demetric Deshawn Scott was charged on Monday with identity theft, bail jumping and felony intimidation of a witness, according to a court filing. Prosecutors say Scott is responsible for several letters sent to U.S. officials that included threats to kill the president and ICE agents. The letters purported to be from Ramón Morales Reyes, whose name and return address were written in blue ink on each letter. 'The letters were all handwritten and, although not exactly the same, all wrote about immigration policy and threatening to kill ICE agents or President Donald Trump. Those letters also appeared to be written by the same person,' prosecutors said in the filing. Morales Reyes was arrested by ICE agents, and his arrest was publicized online by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), which posted his image as well as one of the letters. DHS Secretary Kristi Noem also issued a statement describing him as an 'illegal alien' and said he would remain in custody 'pending his removal proceedings.' 'We are tired of this president messing with us Mexicans — we have done more for this count[r]y than you white people — you have been deporting my family and I think it is time Donald Trump get what he has coming to him,' one of the letters read, according to prosecutors. 'I will self deport myself back to Mexico but not before I use my 30 yard 6 to shoot your precious president in his head – I will see him at one of his big rall[ie]s' But, prosecutors say, after Morales Reyes was taken into custody, it soon became clear he could not have written the letters. Morales Reyes required translation assistance during the interview because he 'does not read, write, or fluently speak English.' Officials also compared a handwriting sample from Morales Reyes to the letter and there was no match. According to the court filing, investigators asked Morales Reyes, through a translator, who would want to get him 'in trouble.' Morales Reyes said the only person would be Scott, who was facing charges for robbing Morales Reyes. Investigators later listened to several calls from jail where Scott allegedly described plans to frame Morales Reyes.

Milwaukee immigrant who police say was framed in Trump threat to remain in ICE custody
CHICAGO — An undocumented immigrant who police say was framed and wrongly accused of mailing a threat to shoot President Donald Trump will remain in detention for now. An immigration judge postponed a bond hearing for Ramón Morales-Reyes, 54, of Milwaukee, on June 4 and rescheduled it for June 10. The decision means Morales-Reyes will remain in the custody of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or ICE, at Dodge Detention Facility in Juneau. Immigration Judge Carla Espinoza said she and Caitlin Corcoran, an attorney for the Department of Homeland Security, needed more time to review the evidence submitted by Morales-Reyes' attorney Cain Oulahan. At the next hearing, she is expected to review whether Morales-Reyes poses a threat to the community and whether he is a flight risk. Morales-Reyes was detained on May 22 after immigration agents received a handwritten letter in English threatening to shoot Trump that arrived in an envelope with Morales-Reyes' name and address. Agents arrested him after he dropped his child off at school on Milwaukee's south side. Investigators quickly ruled out Morales-Reyes as a suspect in the letter since he cannot read, write, or fluently speak English. Six days later, Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem issued a public statement accusing Morales-Reyes of sending the threat, a claim that came under immediate scrutiny from his family and attorneys. On June 2, prosecutors in Milwaukee charged Demetric Scott with sending the letter in the hopes Morales-Reyers would be deported and unavailable to testify against him in a separate robbery case. TIMELINE: Police quickly suspected a man detained by ICE was framed for Trump death threat. Then Kristi Noem accused him of the crime. Despite Noem's news release and ongoing media coverage, Corcoran, the DHS attorney, said she was not familiar with any information about the letter and needed time to review the evidence. "It just seems hard to believe, given the secretary publicized it and all the (media) coverage," said Oulahan, Morales-Reyes' deportation attorney, after the hearing. Morales-Reyes appeared by video for the hearing, which took place in a small courtroom in downtown Chicago. A few reporters and a sketch artist sat in the gallery observing the proceedings. Two other rooms in the courthouse were filled with people waiting for their cases to be called. Oulahan and Corcoran, the attorneys, agreed Morales-Reyes is likely bond-eligible, meaning he has not been convicted of certain crimes that make his detention mandatory. His arrests in 1996 do not make him ineligible given the available information, they said. In response to questions after the hearing, DHS released a statement on June 4, confirming that Morales-Reyes is no longer under investigation for threats against Trump. '(He) will remain in ICE custody pending removal proceedings as he is in the country illegally with previous arrests for felony hit and run, criminal damage to property, and disorderly conduct with a domestic abuse modifier,' DHS said in an email. Publicly available records in Wisconsin connect a man named Ramon Morales Reyes to two incidents in 1996, one where he was accused of a hit-and-run and another where he was charged with disorderly conduct and criminal damage to property, related to domestic violence. Based on available records, prosecutors did not charge the alleged hit-and-run and dismissed the criminal damage charge. The disorderly conduct charge resulted in a non-criminal conviction, which usually refers to a ticket. Before the immigration hearing, about 10 people with Milwaukee immigration advocacy organization Voces de la Frontera and the Illinois Coalition for Immigrant and Refugee Rights gathered to support Morales-Reyes outside of the court. "We are standing behind him and his family because he is innocent," said Clara Nielsen, who came with Voces de la Frontera. "What is happening to him is wrong, and people need to know about it," she said. Christine Neumann-Ortiz, executive director at Voces de la Frontera, said family members and lawyers have shared that Morales-Reyes suffers from anxiety and has been bullied at the detention center because of the DHS allegations. She also stressed the importance for Morales-Reyes to be reunited with his family and to be able to testify against the man accused of framing him in an upcoming jury trial. Morales-Reyes is a victim and witness of an armed robbery and assault case in 2023. He cooperated with law enforcement and has applied for a U visa. A U visa allows undocumented victims and witnesses of certain crimes to stay in the U.S. for up to four years if they help law enforcement investigate the crime. It is intended to encourage crime reporting from undocumented immigrant communities. Morales-Reyes' application was sent out over a month ago, but he has yet to receive an acknowledgment of receipt from the responsible agency, his attorneys said. The pending U visa does not protect Morales-Reyes from deportation unless the court grants some other form of protection. Oulahan, his deportation defense lawyer, said he is planning to ask for a cancellation of removal at a future hearing. That order would protect him from deportation.
