...and then there's what Puig thinks he can do: Ready to give his all for LA 🫶@RiquiPuig's first interview with the #LAGalaxy pic.twitter.com/MpdGbrtdWx— LA Galaxy (@LAGalaxy) August 12, 2022
We haven’t had a coach I enjoyed hearing talk since Bruce Arena. I’m starting to think the best I can realistically hope for is a coach who doesn’t annoy me by saying dumb things and sticks to platitudes.
I did a quick search and all I could find is he just joined CA Mineiro in Brazilian Serie A and hopes to get back in form to be able to join the Argentinian National team. so it seems like his legal issues have been put on the back-burner. I do agree he won't comeback to MLS but it won't be because of his legal issues, it will be because larger clubs with a better FO will come calling and I'd be surprised if he does not make an appearance or two with the National team at some point, the dude is only 26
Here's an article discussing possible MLS player moves to Europe, including Araujo being courted by multiple clubs and quotes from Araujo about his desire to play in Europe specifically (which suggests not LigaMX). https://www.90min.com/posts/who-will-be-the-next-big-transfer-out-of-major-league-soccer
He has seriously regressed this year. I don’t know if it’s an attitude issue or what but I’m surprised there is so much interest. At least right now.
I feel he regressed as well, it really seems like the information he is receiving is giving him illusions of grandeur and he hasn't put in the effort because maybe he feels above the MLS level and needs to move to grow as a player. the second point there is a lot of leagues around Europe that think MLS is not able to develop high quality players and in some instances stunt the players growth, julian may be one of those examples where he showed great promise and has now regressed
🚨❗️Excl. Eli Dasa has had a video call with the LA Galaxy coach. Galaxy have presented a verbal offer for Dasa. 🇺🇸 #LAGalaxyDasa has also attracted interested from Europe with a La Liga club also interested. pic.twitter.com/HNTGWCWQCj— Ibrαhim (@_Mo_Ibrahim) August 13, 2022 Haven't heard of this account but it has 14K followers and Dasa fits the profile of who we've been targeting after the Puig signing. Transfermarket gives him a value of $2.2M following his tenure as a RWB at Dutch club Vitesse.
I don't even have words https://en.as.com/soccer/la-galaxy-deny-kevin-cabral-summer-transfer-to-rb-leipzig-n/
Why would a Bundesliga team want Cabral? This seems impossible on its face. Looking at the author and the articles he has written at that site, he seems a reasonable reporter. His stuff is a little sensationalist but not completely made up, so who knows?
If we sell Araujo, clearly we'll need a guy like him. We'll need to drum up another international spot though. Not ideal going into the final 10 games to have to integrate a new player (not to mention the time it will take to get a visa).
I would be all for this move. Then we can convince CR7 to take that DP spot after he begs Man U to release him. The idea that the Galaxy would be against this move would be hilarious to me.
I don't think that would work. One of our three DPs has to be a "young DP" so that we can have the extra U-22 (i think?) slots currently occupied by Dejan, Efra and Araujo. So losing Cabral, we couldn't sign Ronaldo. The way to make that happen is to cut Costa.
it was working earlier, seems they took it down, probably got called out on their "reporting" and took it down
Agreed. I did read the article it basically said RB Leipzig was interested in cabral and vanney was fully against it and told the FO not to move him as he believes cabral will turn it around and will be a big part of the Galaxy success in the playoffs and beyond so yeah horse pucky
I heard that PSG was looking to trade us Messi, an unnamed defender and two first round draft picks for Cabral.
Ronaldo is apparently able to leave united. Unfortunately the MLS transfer window closed which makes this infuriating. I would have thrown some proposal at Ronaldo even if there was basically no chance for it to happen. I just want the thought of him joining us to be on his mind. Don't really care if he is 39 or 40, I want to see Ronaldo in a Galaxy shirt at least for a season.
