León land surprise signing for Leagues Cup
After an irregular start to the Apertura 2025 with just three points from nine, León is already in the United States to compete in the Leagues Cup. Their debut will be this Tuesday, July 29, against Montreal FC at 5:00 p.m. at Saputo Stadium. Prior to the match, La Fiera received a surprise: Nicolás Fonseca will rejoin the team after his transfer to Valencia fell through. "The operation fell through due to financial fair play issues," reported journalist César Luis Merlo. According to close sources, the Spanish club asked for "10 more days" to close another signing before hiring the Uruguayan, but León decided not to wait any longer. Thus, the midfielder will remain on the emerald squad for now. Fonseca, who arrived in January, will join the team led by Eduardo Berizzo in the next few hours. It is still unknown if he will be available to play against the Canadian team in his tournament debut. This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence.

La Fiera eyeing 'Toro' Fernández in the transfer market
León has not had the transfer market they expected to strengthen themselves for the 2025 Opening and are still looking to cover several key positions. One of their priorities is to find a striker, and everything indicates that they could turn to Cruz Azul to resolve that need. According to recent reports, the management of both clubs are in talks for Gabriel "Toro" Fernández to join the emerald team. The Uruguayan attacker is not in Nico Larcamón's plans, so Cruz Azul is looking to give him an exit to free up foreigner spots and advance in the signing of Luka Jovic. La Fiera is facing complications in forming their squad and needs to close incorporations urgently. According to journalist Ezequiel Gasca, there is a concrete interest in Fernández and the operation could be carried out as a definitive transfer, although no figures have been revealed and there is no formal offer on the table. Gabriel Fernández, 31, has played 35 games with Cruz Azul, scoring 9 goals and 2 assists. His market value, according to Transfermarkt, is around $2 million, and the next few hours could be decisive in defining his future.

Malcolm-Jamal Warner Was Trying to Save His Daughter From Riptide Before Drowning, Police Say
Malcolm-Jamal Warner tried to save his daughter in the ocean before he drowned, an official confirms exclusively to Us Weekly. According to Elberth León, head of the Tourist Police for Costa Rica's Atlantic region, both Warner and his daughter found themselves dragged by an ocean current when the accident occurred on Sunday, July 20. 'Both were dragged by the current,' León shared with Us on Thursday, July 24. 'They were bathing together and were caught by a rip current. Obviously, as a father, he fought for his daughter, but the current in that area is very strong, and they couldn't accomplish the objective.' León said authorities received an incident call through the 911 emergency system on Sunday near Playa Grande, Cahuita, Limón. When tourist police arrived at the beach, Red Cross personnel were already there. Malcolm-Jamal Warner's Most Memorable Roles: From 'The Cosby Show' to 'The Resident' 'They indicated that Mr. Malcolm was in the water enjoying himself with his daughter. At that moment, they were dragged by a rip current,' León shared. 'Two people who were there at the location went in with a surfboard and a boogie board to help rescue the people who were caught in the current.' One of the helpers managed to get Warner's daughter back to land safely. Soon after, the unidentified individual had to help another adult male patient. 'They managed to stay with the girl, managed to get her onto the board, but due to the strength of the current, one of them, from Nicaragua, had to let go of the board and push it toward the shore so the girl could make it to land or the coast,' León explained. 'The person who pushed the board was also dragged by the current, so it forced the person with the board to go back into the sea to pull him out. They managed to get him out in critical condition. He was very exhausted.' Warner was later pulled out by the Red Cross lifeguards and one of the rescuers from Caribbean Guards without vital signs, León said. The Costa Rica Red Cross confirmed to Us on Monday, July 21, that emergency personnel attended to two adult male patients at the scene. One man was transported in critical condition to the local clinic while CPR was performed on Warner. The Cosby Show alum was later pronounced dead at the scene. He was 54. The other individual has been discharged, according to León. 'The Cosby Show' Cast: Where Are They Now? The Costa Rican Judicial Investigation Agency confirmed to Us that Warner's autopsy was completed on Tuesday, July 22, with 'asphyxia due to submersion' found as the cause. His death was ruled accidental by officials. León said the beach where Warner and his daughter visited is normally under a red flag due to the very frequent rip currents in the area. 'We believe it was one of the days with the highest waves and the strongest currents,' León shared. 'He was at the shore rinsing off sand with the girl. They took a quick dip and that's when it happened.'
