Jonas Hofmann eyes MLS move as Zakrzewski Hall shines for USA

Bayer Leverkusen midfielder Jonas Hofmann has expressed interest in moving to Major League Soccer (MLS) to seek new challenges. The 35-year-old, whose contract expires in June 2027, has seen reduced playing time under current coaching staff. Leverkusen has reportedly informed him that they do not plan to extend his contract beyond 2027, and sporting director Simon Rolfes has discussed a potential departure with his agent.

In separate news, 18-year-old striker Julian Zakrzewski Hall is making a significant impact with the United States national team. Playing for the New York Red Bulls, Zakrzewski Hall has scored in his recent appearances, including goals against Peru and Chile. Despite his success with the USMNT, the player remains open to representing Poland in the future due to his maternal roots, stating that his decision is not yet final.
