It’s
MLS
transfer deadline day, and clubs around the league are working around the clock to get their final trades and signings in before midnight.
Here at GIVEMESPORT, we’ve got you covered with all the moves and transfer buzz you need to know about, including plenty of exclusive reports by Tom Bogert.
RSL potential deal for Boženík is currently off
Real Salt Lake
‘s potential deal to sign Slovakia international forward Róbert Boženík from Boavista is off, sources tell GIVEMESPORT.
The clubs verbally agreed to terms a week ago, then after Boženík traveled to America to complete the move, Boavista tried to change the terms, sources say. With around eight hours left before the window closes, the deal will not happen unless Boavista finalize the deal with previously agreed terms. Sources doubt the club will reverse course.
Real Salt Lake did not want to jump through hoops with Boavista and will have the flexibility to bring in a DP this summer if they want.
RSL are working to complete a deal to acquire forward Willy Agada from Sporting KC, as revealed by GIVEMESPORT earlier on Wednesday. The deal is for $500,000 in GAM plus in $350,000 in add-ons, sources add.
The club is confident in Agada’s ability to lead the line.
Agada, 25, is a proven goalscorer in MLS but has fallen down the SKC depth chart. The club signed star forward Dejan Joveljic from the LA Galaxy this winter and deploy a one-striker system. The club also added Mexican forward Santiago Muñoz from Santos Laguna on Tuesday night.
Agada scored 10 goals in just over 1,700 MLS minutes for SKC last season. He has 24 goals in total for the club. His contract is up at the end of 2025.
LAFC sign Ryan Raposo
Los Angeles FC
have signed versatile midfielder Ryan Raposo, sources tell GIVEMESPORT. Raposo was a free agent.
The 26-year-old had spent the entirety of his professional career with the
Vancouver Whitecaps
, making 148 appearances. He won three Canadian Championships with the club.
Raposo and Amaya further bolster LAFC’s squad as they look to add depth and competition over a long season.
LAFC sign Frankie Amaya
Los Angeles FC
have acquired midfielder Frankie Amaya from Toluca on loan, sources tell GIVEMESPORT.
Amaya spent the majority of his career in MLS, first with FC Cincinnati then with the New York Red Bulls, before being signed by Liga MX’s Toluca for $4 million last summer.
Amaya, 24, made 18 appearances for the club.
Muller Rejects Cincinnati Offer
German legend Thomas Müller rejected an offer to sign with
FC Cincinnati
this summer once his
Bayern Munich
contract expires, sources tell GIVEMESPORT.
Müller, 35, will depart Bayern this summer when his contract expires after spending his entire career at the club. He has six goals and six assists in 1,500 minutes with the team this year.
In his career, Müller has 248 goals and 274 assists in 747 appearances for Bayern Munich.
The star forward has had an impeccable run at the club, winning 12 Bundesliga titles (with a 13th coming soon) and two Champions League titles among a trophy-laden career.

Free Agents MLS Teams Should Target This Summer
While there will always be room for the aging stars in MLS, clubs have also started to make waves with younger free agents as well.
Real Salt Lake nearing deal for Agada
Real Salt Lake
are completing a deal to acquire forward Willy Agada from Sporting KC, sources tell GIVEMESPORT. The deal is for $500,000 in GAM plus in $350,000 in add-ons, sources add.
RSL are still working on a deal to sign Slovakia international forward Róbert Boženík from Boavista as a DP, but as revealed by GIVEMESPORT yesterday, no documents have been yet signed. One source says Boavista are making late demands that is putting the deal in jeopardy.
Real Salt Lake’s potential deal to acquire Agada from Sporting KC is around $500,000 GAM another $350,000 GAM in add-ons.
The transfer window closes at 11:59 pm CT on Wednesday night.
Agada, 25, is a proven goalscorer in MLS but has fallen down the SKC depth chart. The club signed star forward Dejan Joveljic from the LA Galaxy this winter and deploy a one-striker system. The club also added Mexican forward Santiago Muñoz from Santos Laguna on Tuesday night.
Agada scored 10 goals in just over 1,700 MLS minutes for SKC last season. He has 24 goals in total for the club. His contract is up at the end of 2025.
The deal gives RSL a strong option at the position whether or not Boženík ultimately gets done. If so, Pablo Mastroeni has further options to play with both forwards together.
Quakes Complete Buck Signing
The
San Jose Earthquakes
have completed the signing of midfielder Noel Buck from the
New England Revolution
in a cash trade for up to $650,000.
The move reunites Buck with ‘Quakes head coach Bruce Arena, who gave the midfielder his professional breakthrough with the Revs. Buck thrived under Arena and became one of the league’s brightest young talents.
Buck, who just turned 20 this month, fell down the depth chart following Arena’s departure from the club. He was on the periphery in 2024 until sealing a loan to Southampton’s U-21s last summer and has just 22 minutes played in 2025.
NYCFC Finalizing Deal for Australian Midfielder
New York City FC
are finalizing a deal to sign Australian international midfielder Aiden O’Neill from Belgian club Standard Liège, sources tell GIVEMESPORT.
O’Neill is a key starter for Standard, and has 17 caps with the Australian national team.
Charlotte Bring in Marshall-Rutty on Loan
Charlotte FC
have acquired winger/right-back Jahkeele Marshall-Rutty on loan from
CF Montreal
, in exchange for $100,000 in GAM.
The 20-year-old has made six appearances for Montreal this season, including two starts.
Dynamo Bring In Forward
The
Houston Dynamo
have acquired forward Toyosi Olusanya from Scottish Premiership side St. Mirren. Olusanya, 27, has signed a contract through 2026, with options for 2027 and 2028.
The England native has scored 22 goals and tallied six assists in 105 professional appearances in Scotland and England.
SKC Complete Munoz Signing
Sporting Kansas City
have finalized a deal to sign Mexican forward Santiago Muñoz, as reported by GIVEMESPORT.
The deal is a loan through the end of the season with a purchase option, sources add. Muñoz, 22, has American citizenship, so he won’t occupy an international slot. The forward had a prolific run with various Mexican youth national teams, earning a loan to Newcastle U-23s. He returned to Santos and has scored six first-team goals.
How the Trade Market is Looking
Inter Miami CF
midfielder Julian Gressel is overwhelmingly likely to be traded, with numerous clubs calling and talks progressing. Gressel is the biggest name to watch that I can say I’m expecting to move.
There are calls happening across the league for others, but there’s no guarantee on the players I’ve heard that it doesn’t make sense to speculate. There are, of course, plenty more I don’t know about. We’ll see what shakes down on deadline day.
A lot of teams need to move a player out to make the space to bring a player in, which is gumming up talks, multiple sources say.
With
Sporting KC signing Mexican forward Santiago Muñoz
, multiple sources in the league have reached out to me asking about Willy Agada. Several clubs have called about Agada this window — Real Salt Lake and the Columbus Crew being two who looked into it — but SKC rebuffed all advances. They made it clear they wanted to keep Agada.
Becher Staying in St. Louis
St. Louis CITY SC
have exercised the purchase option on forward Simon Becher, sources tell GIVEMESPORT.
Becher joined the club on loan last summer from Danish club AC Horsens. The loan was set to expire at the end of June. The club are happy with Becher and doing it now takes away any doubt and ensures there isn’t a waiting period between the loan expiring (end of June) and the summer transfer window opening (July 24).
Becher, 25, has seven goals and two assists in around 1,300 minutes across all competitions since joining last season. He has appeared in all nine of the club’s MLS matches this season, starting four. He’s a valuable member of the squad.
