Earthquakes MF Hernan Lopez out 3-4 months after shoulder surgery
March 14 - San Jose Earthquakes standout midfielder Hernan Lopez underwent right shoulder surgery on Friday and is expected to miss three to four months.
Lopez, 24, hasn't scored in two matches this season after having six goals and two assists in 24 MLS matches (22 starts) in 2024.
San Jose acquired Lopez 11 months ago from Argentine club Godoy Cruz for a club-record $6 million transfer fee. The Earthquakes subsequently signed him through the 2026 season with options for 2027-28.
Lopez scored seven goals for Godoy Cruz and tallied 12 overall with seven assists for three different Argentine clubs between 2019-24.
San Jose (2-1-0, 6 points) host the Colorado Rapids on Saturday.

Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) ARSENAL are finally ready to sign a No 9 — England youth striker Igor Tyjon. The Gunners want to strike a deal with Blackburn Rovers for the 17-year-old, who has already made two substitute appearances in the Championship.

However, Blackburn are expected to demand as much as possible for one of their prized academy assets. Manchester United showed interest in Tyjon a year ago, but the teenager — who is also eligible to represent Poland — was happy to stay at Ewood Park and fight for a place in the first team. Arsenal may be harder to resist given their strong track record of promoting young talent.

And despite convincingly beating Real Madrid they fell short against eventual winners PSG in the Champions League. The lack of a true out-and-out striker has been a major topic of discussion among the Arsenal fanbase and the club is expected to make a big-name signing this summer. They have been strongly linked with RB Leipzig's Benjamin Sesko and Sporting CP's Viktor Gyokeres.

Sunderland promotion bonuses revealed as Jobe Bellingham and co share out huge £7.75m for reaching Premier League
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A STUNNING £7.75million was split by Sunderland's promotion winners for reaching the Prem. Skipper Dan Neil and cult hero Luke O'Nien finished top of the table for appearances and will pick up more than £500,000 each. 2 Sunderland's playoff heroes have bagged a huge promotion bonus Credit: Shutterstock Editorial 2 Luke O'Nien is among those to bag £500k for taking the Black Cats back to the Prem Credit: Shutterstock Editorial The system is based on the number of games played in the campaign under Wearsiders' boss Regis Le Bris, who had his own personal jackpot. Each player received shares in the windfall. Starters were given four per game, subs received two and non-playing men on the bench got one. Neil and O'Nien, injured in the 2-1 Wembley play-off final win over Sheffield United, made 48 and 49 first-team starts respectively to qualify for the highest return. READ MORE ON FOOTBALL TRANSFER LATEST First window OPEN as PSG after Argentine wonderkid, City and Cherki 'close' Most of the squad played a large chunk of games, so will earn between £400,000 and £500,000. That is a large boost to pay packets, with young Chris Rigg, 17, in line for around £400k - which is roughly the same as his basic salary. Even after tax, that should mean a terrific bonus for the players who took the Black Cats to glory. The total available in the initial bonus system for the playing staff was £8m if they finished top. BEST ONLINE CASINOS - TOP SITES IN THE UK But the consolation of winning the play-offs was just £250,000 less. That is a huge result for the players, who saw the club bring in extra income with the three play-off games. Sky Sports forced to apologise as Sunderland star swears on live TV after last touch for club earns them promotion The £7.75m is higher than many other sides offered in recent years and also dwarfs the figure paid out by League One play-off winners Charlton. Addicks only handed out £750,000 in bonuses among the players on a similar pro rata basis. SunSport revealed on Sunday that Roma are poised to make a shock move for Sunderland skipper Neil. The Italian giants are keen on the hard-running midfielder who is aware of their interest and a £15million deal could be thrashed out. Neil's move would rock Sunderland, though, who are preparing to lose teenager Bellingham. The 19-year-old is already talking to clubs in Germany.
