July 27 - Atlanta United acquired forward Leo Afonso in a trade with Inter Miami, both teams announced on Sunday. Atlanta also receives $225,000 in general allocation money from Miami in exchange for an international roster slot and $50,000 in conditional GAM.

With MLS' roster rules severely limiting Inter Miami's spending, how have the Herons managed to sign another high-impact -- and high-earning -- friend of Lionel Messi's?

Major League Soccer announced Friday that Inter Miami stars Lionel Messi and Jordi Alba will be suspended for the team’s next match against FC Cincinnati on Saturday.

The Messi cam is "pushing the boundaries of how fans experience the game," said MLS Executive Vice President of Media Seth Bacon. Bacon added, "With this collaboration, we're bringing fans even closer to one of the greatest players of all time- in a way that's dynamic, immersive, and made for the next generation of fans.
