- Negotiations over a new contract are ongoing between the representatives of Lionel Messi and Inter Miami, reports AS. The MLS club are reported to be "working tirelessly" to sign the 37-year-old Argentina international to a new deal, amid plans to secure his future at the club through 2026. The Herons, who recently appointed Messi's former teammate Javier Mascherano as head coach, also announced that striker Luis Suárez signed a new one-year contract at the Chase Stadium on Wednesday. Inter Miami co-owner Jorge Mas has also stated that he "expects" Messi to stay at the club after his contract expires next year.

- AC Milan left-back Theo Hernández has been placed on Bayern Munich's shortlist, reports Sky Sports Deutschland's Florian Plettenberg. It is said that the 27-year-old is seen as an ideal successor for Alphonso Davies, who has shown no sign of wanting to pen an extension before his contract expires at the Allianz Arena next summer. The Bundesliga club are anticipating interest from Real Madrid for the signature of Davies, but they could reportedly face competition from Manchester United for Hernández, with the Premier League side also keen on his services.
