Fresh off their World Cup run, several key Argentina national team players are on the move during the 2026 summer transfer window, with Cristian Romero, Thiago Almada, and Facundo Medina all reportedly closing in on new deals. Argentina made waves during the 2026 World Cup by storming all the way to the final before suffering a heartbreaking 1-0 loss to Spain. Now, key members of that runner-up squad are generating significant buzz across the summer transfer window, with Cristian Romero, Thiago Almada, and Facundo Medina all nearing high-profile moves. One of the defining sagas of the summer window centers on Cristian Romero, the Tottenham Hotspur captain who made his desire to depart North London clear at the end of the club season. Coming off a standout campaign in the World Cup that earned him a nomination for defender of the tournament, the star center back is now closing in on his next destination. As reported by transfer insider Nicolo Schira and ESPN Argentina‘s Esteban Edul, Romero has agreed to personal terms with Atletico Madrid. While Inter Milan pursued his signature, valuation hurdles stalled talks, allowing Los Colchoneros to strike an agreement on a €6 million annual salary through 2030 with a club option for 2031. Final club-to-club negotiations with Tottenham are expected to wrap up between €40 million and €45 million. Meanwhile, transfer reporter Cesar Luis Merlo reported that Thiago Almada will leave Atlwtico Madrid to sign with Argentine power River Plate. The versatile forward, who opened the World Cup as a starter before seeing his minutes drop as the tournament progressed, will sign a three-and-a-half-year contract in a €20 million deal for 100% of his rights, with Atletico retaining a €40 million buyback clause.

Naturally a central defender, Medina filled in capably at left back following Nicolas Tagliafico’s injury, cementing his status as one of the most reliable anchors along La Albiceleste’s back line. More Argentine stars featured in transfer speculation While Argentina’s collective output fell just short of repeating its 2022 championship triumph, the squad’s individual stars continue to command massive interest across Europe. Although Emiliano Martinez’s rumored move to Juventus has officially fallen through, several other marquee names remain linked to potential departures. The headline story involves Julian Alvarez, with Barcelona making a push to acquire the star striker, who has publicly signaled his intent to leave Atletico Madrid. Barcelona sporting director Deco traveled to Madrid this week to meet with Alvarez’s agent, Fernando Hidalgo, as the Catalan club prepares its final proposal, even while Atlético continues to demand his full €500 million release clause. Elsewhere, reporter Fabrizio Romano indicates that English side Ipswich Town and Bundesliga club RB Leipzig are actively pursuing midfielder Exequiel Palacios, with negotiations ongoing. Meanwhile, Mundo Deportivo reports that AS Roma is pushing to sign Nicolas Gonzalez, who returned to Juventus after a loan stint with Atletico Madrid; Juventus values the winger at €30 million, while Roma’s initial valuation sits closer to €20 million. Two additional transactions are also entering the final stages. Right back Nahuel Molina is finalizing the remaining details of his move to Roma, while teenage prodigy Franco Mastantuono, who has already worn Argentina’s iconic No. 10 shirt, is set to join Fiorentina on loan from Real Madrid, with only final contract signatures remaining before the deal becomes official.

Mohamed Salah is preparing to begin an exciting new chapter after leaving Liverpool, but his first appearance for Trabzonspor promises to be unlike anything he experienced during his celebrated years in England. The Egyptian superstar has already generated enormous excitement in Turkiye, and supporters are eagerly waiting to discover when they will finally see him in competitive action. After spending nine trophy-filled seasons at Liverpool, Salah has arrived at Trabzonspor as one of the biggest signings in Turkish soccer history. His arrival has transformed expectations around the club, while fans have turned every training session and public appearance into a celebration worthy of one of the game’s modern greats. Even before making his debut, Salah has experienced scenes rarely witnessed during his career. Thousands of Trabzonspor supporters gathered to welcome the Egyptian forward after he landed in Turkiye to complete his move, creating an unforgettable atmosphere that immediately highlighted his status. Fans followed his arrival throughout the night, with many waiting hours simply to catch a glimpse of their new star. Salah himself admitted the reception caught him completely by surprise during his official unveiling: “I did not expect this reception.

I also thank the club president for his trust,” he added.

Dive into the latest evaluations to see exactly how Ronaldo's championship stacks up against Messi's in the ultimate battle for league supremacy. The Cristiano Ronaldo vs. Lionel Messi debate just leveled up, completely shifting from individual stats to an all-out battle between their leagues. With fresh data revealing a massive shakeup in global league rankings, fans are aggressively comparing the competitive strength of where these two icons currently play. Dive into the latest evaluations to see exactly how Ronaldo’s championship stacks up against Messi’s in the ultimate battle for league supremacy. The debate has intensified because both stars have transformed the profile of their respective leagues since arriving. While Ronaldo has repeatedly defended the quality of the Saudi Pro League, Messi’s influence has coincided with continued growth in Major League Soccer, leaving fans eager to see how both competitions measure up after the 2026 World Cup. MLS climbs while Saudi Pro League slips The mystery was cleared up when Global Football Rankings placed Major League Soccer in 10th place worldwide with an average rating of 79.3, while the Saudi Pro League fell to 36th with a rating of 75.1. The updated standings represent one of the biggest changes seen since the World Cup and have generated heated discussions across the soccer community. According to the latest rankings, MLS has entered the world’s top 10 leagues for the first time, while the Saudi Pro League has slipped well outside the top 30. The results quickly spread across social media, where supporters began comparing the progress of both competitions. According to Kaishi Sport’s latest rankings, MLS earned an average rating of 79.3 to secure 10th place, while the Saudi Pro League finished 36th with a rating of 75.1. 🚨| After the World Cup, MLS entered the world’s top 10 leagues for the first time, while the Saudi Pro League dropped outside the top 30. pic.twitter.com/2L8eVZ7mOI— Kalshi Sports (@KalshiSports) July 31, 2026 Unlike rankings based purely on transfer spending or star players, Global Football Rankings evaluates leagues by examining their overall competitive level and the average quality across every club. Match results, league balance, and consistency throughout the competition all contribute to the final score. That approach explains why a league with several global superstars may still rank lower if there is a significant difference between its strongest and weakest clubs. It also rewards competitions where a greater number of teams remain competitive throughout the season. Different systems tell different stories One important detail behind the debate is that league rankings vary considerably depending on the methodology used. While Global Football Rankings places MLS inside the world’s top 10 and the Saudi Pro League in 36th position, several other organizations produce very different results. Opta’s Power Rankings, which focus heavily on club strength across an entire league, reportedly place MLS around 19th and the Saudi Pro League near 42nd.

Those differences highlight that there is no universally accepted league ranking.
