Inter Miami announced the departure of one of their stars to another Major League Soccer team, leaving Lionel Messi without a key teammate.

The 2025-26 season is around the corner and Inter need to bounce back after a difficult end to the 2024-25 season. The Nerazzurri failed to win the Italian Serie A on the last matchday, and then lost the 2025 edition of the UEFA Champions League final after a disappointing 5-0 defeat against PSG in Munich.

The new-look tournament was sort of a success; Chelsea seemed to have a good time, as did US President Donald Trump, who felt the desire to stay with the players for the trophy lift in a comical moment that won’t be forgotten any time soon. Outside of that, many were still not sold on the concept thanks to it feeling largely unnecessary.

Inter Milan enter a new era this season by entrusting inexperienced coach Cristian Chivu to heal the wounds of the previous campaign and restore confidence to a side left reeling from the collapse of their treble bid.

Despite a disastrous MLS regular season, the LA Galaxy has an opportunity to redeem part of the year by winning Leagues Cup.

Atalanta has signed Nicola Zalewski with the Poland wing-back leaving Inter Milan after just seven months and 17 games including a Champions League final.
