Atlanta United are working on Emmanuel Latte Lath's departure, with reports signaling Darwin Nuñez or Breel Embolo as his potential departure. Emmanuel Latte Lath‘s stint at Atlanta United has proven to be deeply disappointing for a player who, at the time of his signing, set a record as the most expensive transfer in MLS history. Now, with the striker facing an imminent exit, his departure could clear the path for reported target Darwin Nuñez or Breel Embolo to join the Five Stripes. Back in February 2025, Atlanta United shelled out a $22 million transfer fee to acquire Latte Lath from English Championship side Middlesbrough, briefly making him the most expensive arrival in league history. However, his on-field production lagged far behind his price tag, prompting club executives to actively seek a move for the forward. Ahead of Wednesday’s match against Charlotte FC, where Latte Lath was omitted from the matchday squad, Atlanta United’s sporting director addressed the forward’s status on 92.9 The Game: “We’re having a few conversations around him, and so out of precaution we’ve kept him out of this game. That’s about the extent of what I’m going to say about it at the moment.“ If a transfer materializes, Latte Lath will leave the Georgia club less than two years after his arrival. In 48 appearances across all competitions, the Ivory Coast international managed just 11 goals and four assists while featuring in the worst campaign in franchise history in 2025, when Atlanta finished 29th in the overall MLS standings with just 28 points. Emmanuel Latte Lath #9 of Atlanta United attempts a shot. Darwin Nuñez or Breel Embolo to fill the Designated Player slot According to The Athletic‘s Tom Bogert and Paul Tenorio, Atlanta United is aggressively pursuing Uruguay international Darwin Nuñez. Swiss international Breel Embolo has also emerged as a primary target to bolster manager Gerardo “Tata” Martino’s front line, though the club is expected to prioritize just one of the two options. Nuñez joined Saudi side Al Hilal from Liverpool for €53 million in 2025, but struggled to hold down a consistent starting role in Riyadh. Following Karim Benzema’s arrival in February, and with Saudi Pro League rules capping clubs at eight foreign players, head coach Simone Inzaghi left the Uruguayan striker out of his league roster. Embolo presents a second marquee option following a strong showing at the World Cup. The Swiss international made a €13 million move to Stade Rennais in 2025, making him a significantly more cost-effective alternative for Atlanta United compared to a full permanent transfer for Nuñez. Atlanta United currently occupies all three of its Designated Player (DP) slots with Miguel Almiron, Aleksei Miranchuk, and Latte Lath. Once the Ivorian’s departure is finalized, a coveted DP slot will open up, giving the club the flexibility to complete a deal for Nuñez, Embolo, or another top-tier attacking target.
France and Spain are facing off in one of the most competitive matches of the 2026 World Cup. Despite the significance of the game itself, much of the attention has been focused on the moment of silence that will be hold before kickoff. France and Spain are facing off in the semifinals of the 2026 World Cup. Battling for a place in the final, the match is expected to be highly competitive at Arlington Stadium, as both teams feature star-studded rosters. Despite the importance of the contest, much of the attention has centered on the announced minute of silence before kickoff. French President Emmanuel Macron revealed the reason behind the tribute. “Before France-Spain, a minute of silence will be observed in tribute to the victims of the Nice attack, 10 years after July 14, 2016. Thank you to the President of FIFA for responding to the request of France and of all French people who have mobilized. We will never forget,” France president Emmanuel Macron said yesterday as per Le Monde. Ten years after the tragedy in Nice, the French people continue to remember the event that claimed the lives of 86 people and left 400 others injured. After a public petition that gathered more than 10,000 signatures, FIFA decided to support the gesture and honor the memory of that tragic event. Although no player on the French national team has yet posted anything related to this tragedy, they have agreed to wear commemorative symbols during the match against Spain. If they secure a place in their third consecutive World Cup final, they may also make a commemorative gesture. So far, however, no official statement has been made by any of the team’s stars, including Kylian Mbappé and Ousmane Dembélé. Kylian Mbappe of France shoots during the UEFA Nations League 2025. FIFA paid tribute with a minute of silence at its last two games Just as will happen in today’s match between France and Spain semifinal clash, FIFA observed a minute of silence in honor of Jayden Adams. Following his passing on July 11, 2026, the matches between Argentina vs Switzerland, and Norway vs England, also featured the same tribute before kickoff. “M99 (Norway-England) and M100 (Argentina-Switzerland): a minute of silence will be observed in both matches in memory of Jayden Adams, who unfortunately passed away at the age of 25. The South African midfielder made his FIFA World Cup debut during this tournament,” FIFA posted on its official website. While the two commemorations are unrelated, they share a clear message: Soccer can go beyond what happens on the pitch by making a social impact. In addition, FIFA has shown considerable flexibility when it comes to these kinds of tributes. As a result, the match between France and Spain will not only be significant from a sporting perspective but will also carry an emotional social backdrop.

The plan would see Mbemba move on loan to Lorient - part of the Black Knight multi-club ownership group - to continue his development before potentially returning to play in the Premier League.
Ivory Coast and Ecuador are clashing in the 2026 World Cup for their opener in Group E, with fans questioning the presence of star Moises Caicedo in the game. Ivory Coast and Ecuador clash on Sunday, June 15, in Matchday 1 of Group E at the 2026 FIFA World Cup at Lincoln Financial Field, now known as Philadelphia Stadium. With high stakes for both nations, Moises Caicedo has been included in the starting lineup for Ecuador. Caicedo is starting against Ivory Coast. The Chelsea midfielder is fully fit and has been training alongside his teammates throughout the camp, with head coach Sebastian Beccacece having made the deliberate decision to hold him out of the pre-tournament friendlies to eliminate any risk of injury. Les Elephants arrive in excellent spirits following a pre-tournament run that included wins over Scotland and, most impressively, a 2-1 upset of France. After missing the 2018 and 2022 World Cups, Ivory Coast are focused on a clear objective: becoming the first iteration of this generation to advance past the group stage in a World Cup. Ecuador, meanwhile, come in off friendlies against Saudi Arabia and Guatemala, less demanding opposition than what the Ivorians faced, but the South Americans enter with genuine ambition. A second-place finish in the CONMEBOL qualifiers has set expectations high for what could be their deepest run in World Cup history. Sebastian Beccacece, Head Coach of Ecuador interacts with Pedro Vite and Moises Caicedo of Ecuador. Group E already taking shape Sunday’s match arrives with Group E already off to a dramatic start. Germany opened the group on a stunning note, crushing Curacao 7-1 to immediately establish themselves as a dominant force in the bracket.
