With Inter Miami preparing for a high-stakes opener and a packed campaign across multiple competitions, every training session and medical update is being scrutinized.

Son Heung-min’s Los Angeles FC could soon lose Denis Bouanga, even after his failed transfer from Major League Soccer to Brazil’s Serie A.

Lionel Messi’s Inter Miami have claimed the top spot in MLS valuations at $1.45 billion, raising questions about where Son Heung-min’s LAFC and Thomas Müller’s Vancouver Whitecaps rank.

With Lionel Messi’s Inter Miami and Son Heung-min’s LAFC set to clash in the 2026 MLS season opener, a change of venue has been made for the highly anticipated matchup.

With Son Heung-min, Denis Bouanga, and Lionel Messi all orbiting the same Major League Soccer narrative, a rejected move has sparked intrigue rather than closure.

Before pushing for Monterrey star German Berterame, Lionel Messi's Inter Miami reportedly pursued the signing of one of Son Heung-min's star teammate at Los Angeles FC.

With departure from Tottenham being imminent, star Son Heung-min revealed why he decided to join MLS' LAFC despite having offer from the Premier League.

Lionel Messi continues to redefine excellence, Son Heung-Min remains a commercial and sporting force, and Thomas Muller has authored yet another unexpected chapter late in his career. Yet as MLS closes the book on its most star-studded season to date, the numbers behind the legends tell a more sobering story.

As the new year approaches, Son Heung-Min, now the face of LAFC, has sent an unmistakable message toward Messi and Inter Miami about the battle to come.

Speculative reports linked him not just to Tottenham and AC Milan, but even to Barcelona. However, while Milan has reportedly seriously monitored the situation, Son is already preparing to extinguish the noise.

With his brace in the playoff game against Austin FC, LAFC star Denis Bouanga has joined an elite MLS club that even Lionel Messi hasn’t reached.

Lionel Messi, once the undisputed face of American soccer since joining Inter Miami, is now feeling the pressure — both from the explosive rise of Son Heung-Min at LAFC and the sudden arrival of Thomas Muller at the Vancouver Whitecaps.

Could Son Heung-Min and Christian Pulisic form AC Milan's future front line from January? That question has set the soccer world buzzing after reports suggested that Son Heung-Min may be considering a loan move during the MLS offseason.

Once untouchable both on and off the pitch, the Inter Miami superstar now faces unexpected competition from two global icons: Son Heung-min of LAFC and Thomas Muller of the Vancouver Whitecaps.

From Lionel Messi’s MLS to Christian Pulisic’s Milan, the soccer world continues to see the blending of continents — and now, Son Heung-min could be the next star to bridge that gap.
