• Domenico Criscito joins Lorenzo Insigne in Toronto. The 35-year-old defender is Toronto FC's latest Italian signing, joining the Reds after spending the past 15 seasons split between Genoa and Zenit St. Petersburg in Russia. TFC coach Bob Bradley said Criscito can be used as a left back or at center back. He earned 26 caps for Italy in a 10-year international career (2009-18) that included one start at the 2010 World Cup

• Corentin Jean acquired by Inter Miami from Lens. The 26-year-old French forward signed a three-year contract after being acquired from Lens for what L'Equipe reported to be 1.2 million euros ($1.25 million). He won Ligue 1 and Ligue 2 titles, scoring 37 goals in 160 Ligue 1 games, but he had just one goal (against PSG) in 17 top-tier games in 2021-22.

• Adrien Hunou returns to France after 14 months. The 28-year-old center forward has been transferred to Ligue 1's Angers after playing just 38 games with Minnesota United. He scored seven goals in 2021 but didn't score in 121 minutes of play in 2022. His departure leaves the Loons with two DPs (Emanuel Reynoso and Luis Amarilla).

• USMNT adds set piece coach for World Cup. U.S. Soccer hired Lars Knudsen from the Danish federation for which he worked as a youth national team coach and scout. U.S. coach Gregg Berhalter noted that "set pieces are a critical component for any team at the World Cup" and he confident Knudsen "will help elevate our quality in this part of the game even higher.”

• Keaton Parks sidelined again with blood clot. The NYCFC midfielder will undergo surgery to remove a blood clot from his popliteal artery in his lower right leg, the same procedure that he needed last November and that required him to miss NYCFC's run to the MLS title. He has played 22 games across all competitions in 2022 and was named NYCFC's player of the month in May.

• Matthew Cardone retires to go to law school. The San Antonio FC goalkeeper announced he will enroll in SMU's Dedman School of Law this fall.
