Son poised to join LAFC for £20m after Spurs exit
Son Heung-min is expected to join Los Angeles FC for around £20m after announcing his departure from Tottenham over the weekend. The forward revealed in a news conference on Saturday that he will leave Tottenham this summer after 10 years at the club. And the 33-year-old appears poised to join Major League Soccer (MLS) in what could even be a record fee, potentially surpassing the £22.5m paid by Atlanta United to sign Emmanuel Latte Lath from Middlesbrough in February. The final details of the transfer remain in discussion but his move to LAFC is now considered subject just to the completion of paperwork and a medical. Son, who is under contract with Spurs until 2026, made what is expected to be his final appearance for Tottenham in a 1-1 pre-season friendly against Newcastle in Seoul on Sunday. He was embraced by his Spurs team-mates and the opposing Newcastle players, and they performed a guard of honour when he was substituted in the 65th minute. While Tottenham's pre-season preparations now take them to Germany to face Bayern Munich on Thursday - and a reunion with Harry Kane -Son is expected to enjoy some time in his native South Korea. Arriving from Bayer Leverkusen in 2015, Son scored 173 goals in 454 appearances for Tottenham.

Inter Miami provide update on Lionel Messi after suffering hamstring injury against Necaxa
Lionel Messi picked up a hamstring injury during Inter Miami's Leagues Cup penalty shootout win over Club Necaxa. The MLS club has provided an update, saying Messi underwent medical tests to evaluate the extent of the injury. The results confirmed a minor muscle injury in the forward's right leg. The club did not provide a timeline for the 38-year-old's return, but he is expected to miss Miami's next Leagues Cup match against UNAM Pumas on Wednesday. Messi fell to the ground after coming into contact with Necaxa's Raul Sanchez and Alexis Pena early in the game. The Argentine sought medical attention but was forced to leave after 11 minutes, with Federico Redondo subbed on as his replacement. Messi's injury will likely be a big blow for Miami, who are aiming to reach the second round of the Leagues Cup with a positive result against Pumas. The former Barcelona star has been a key player for the Herons this season, scoring 24 goals and providing 10 assists in 31 appearances across all competitions. Miami relied heavily on Messi at the recent FIFA Club World Cup, where he played over 90 minutes in all four matches of the competition. The World Cup winner led his team to Leagues Cup success in 2023, scoring in normal time and converting his penalty in the final against Nashville SC. Stats from Transfermarkt
