Market

Jonathan Sanchez asks to leave Inter Miami CF

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Squad

Benja Cremaschi falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Squad

Ian Campbell in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Inter Miami CF this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match

Atlanta United FC take the points off Inter Miami CF

Beaten 0‑1, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

Squad

No hiding place for Alex Reyna

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Alex Reyna, and the manager let it.

Squad

Inter Miami CF pick somebody else ahead of Josh Reyna

There is no complaint available here and everybody involved knows it, which does not make the walk to the bench any shorter. Form is the only currency in football that cannot be borrowed against.

Boardroom

The scrutiny sharpens at Inter Miami CF

Nobody upstairs has said anything, which is the loudest thing they could do. Results buy silence in this game; the account at Inter Miami CF is running low.

Squad

A one-man rearguard from Jack Sargent

There were 6 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.

Market

DeAndre Pulisic has one foot out of the door

Terms are settled between the clubs and the rest is paperwork and a photograph. Around Inter Miami CF they have already started talking about him in the past tense.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Andy Rojas

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Squad

Tempers go at Inter Miami CF

Alex Reyna was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad

Ian Campbell falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Match

Honours even between Inter Miami CF and DC United

1‑1, and both dressing rooms will call it two points lost. A draw that asked plenty of questions and answered none of them.

Market

Inter Miami CF and Gio Johnson are talking past each other

“There is a gap, and pretending there is not helps nobody.” Neither side has moved, and the calendar is working for exactly one of them.

Player ratings

Jonathan Sanchez runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 7. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Squad

A fracture rules Alexander Riascos out for 80 days

Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Inter Miami CF will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Market

Christian Yedlin asks to leave Inter Miami CF

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Squad

Words at Inter Miami CF training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Benja Cremaschi is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

From our football correspondent Crisis

Squad

Alexander Riascos breaks a bone — 108 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 108 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Squad

A knee injury of the worst kind for Cameron Dempsey

30 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Inter Miami CF lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Market

Christian Yedlin puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Inter Miami CF, and it is not being withdrawn.

Squad

Connor Tillman says Inter Miami CF went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Squad

Tempers go at Inter Miami CF

Aidan Evans was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Match

Philadelphia Union take the points off Inter Miami CF

Beaten 0‑1, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

From our football correspondent Crisis

Squad

Andy Rojas damages knee ligaments — 31 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 31 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

Match

Nowhere to hide for Inter Miami CF

1‑4 against Philadelphia Union, and no complaints that would survive the replay. The manager spoke about character afterwards; the terraces used shorter words.

Squad

Josh Reyna in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Inter Miami CF this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Words at Inter Miami CF training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Ian Campbell is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Match

No time for Philadelphia Union to settle

The goal that put Philadelphia Union ahead was still being replayed on the concourse when Inter Miami CF equalised, 4 minutes later. Leads are only worth what you do with them.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Alexander Riascos

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.
