Franco Negri - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Active in Decision Day loss Negri (leg) had two crosses (zero accurate), two clearances, two tackles (one won) and one scoring chance created in Saturday's 1-0 loss to St. Louis City SC.

Impact Negri avoided a serious issue from the apparent injury that forced him to leave the field early in the previous contest versus Portland Timbers. He featured in his usual left-back position and recorded at least one tackle and one interception for the third time in a row. With Marcelo Saracchi (lower body) and Lawrence Ennali (thigh) dealing with fitness concerns, Negri might remain the uncontested starter on the flank, so he could continue to play all possible minutes if he stays healthy.

Leaves with discomfort Sunday Negri was unable to continue in the 36th minute of Sunday's game versus Portland Timbers after picking up a pain in the right leg.

Impact Negri required assistance to exit the pitch, possibly sustaining a considerable issue ahead of the decisive stages of the season. He was replaced by Duane Holmes, with Felipe Andrade also available in his return from his own injury but perhaps not ready for a lot of minutes yet. While the severity of the injury hasn't been confirmed, losing the Argentinian would limit Houston's back line in upcoming contests.

Impact Negri scored the lone goal of the match in the 34th minute while leading Houston in tackles Wednesday. The goal was the first with Houston for Negri as he's combined for five tackles and six clearances over his last three appearances.

Joins Houston Dynamo for 2026 Negri has signed a contract with Houston Dynamo through the 2026 season with an option through June 2027 following his departure from San Diego FC, his new team announced Tuesday.

Impact Negri adds a left-back asset to a Dynamo side that also has Felipe Andrade in the contention for that position and could benefit from the extra depth. The new signing has played 45 MLS games during his stints in Inter Miami and San Diego, but his playing time was limited in the most recent campaign. Still, he managed to score one goal and an assist over 18 appearances in 2025.

JANUARY 27 • ROTOWIRE

On bench Saturday Negri (head) is on the bench to face Vancouver Whitecaps in Saturday's Conference Final.

Impact Negri will be an option to replace Luca Bombino at left-back but is not guaranteed to see a lot of action. The Argentinian has recorded 300 minutes of play over nine MLS matches in the last seven months, delivering one assist during that period.

NOVEMBER 29, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Option against Whitecaps Negri (head) is back available for Saturday's Conference Final against Vancouver as he wasn't mentioned in the MLS injury report.

Impact Negri has cleared his head injruy suffered recently since he wasn't listed in the MLS injury report this time and is therefore an option for Saturday's Conference Final against Vancouver. That said, the defender has been mainly a bench option this season for San Diego and will therefore likely find a bench spot for that clash.

NOVEMBER 29, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Ruled out against Minnesota Negri (head) is ruled out for Monday's clash against Minnesota United, according to the MLS injury report.

Impact Negri is dealing with an apparent head injury and will not be available for Monday's clash against Minnesota United. The defender will hope to recover in time for the conference final if San Diego reaches it, but his absence will not impact the starting squad since he has primarily been a bench option for the club this season.

NOVEMBER 23, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Picks up lower body injury Negri is questionable for Saturday's match against Minnesota due to a lower-body injury, according to the MLS injury report.

Impact Negri returns from the break still nursing an injury after he was left out last game, with a lower-body injury leaving him as a late call. If fit, he will hope to see a start, as he started in their last match before his injury. However, if left out, Luca Bombino is his likely replacement at left-back.

SEPTEMBER 12, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Assists in substitute appearance Negri assisted once to go with three crosses (one accurate) and one chance created in Sunday's 2-1 win against San Jose Earthquakes.

Impact Negri was forced into the match Saturday during the first half of San Diego's 2-1 victory over San Jose after fellow full-back Aiden Harangi was forced off early due to injury. The substitute defender proceeded to put forth an energetic 53 minutes over which he supplied a key assist and tracked-back to contribute four tackles (three won), two interceptions and two clearances to the team's defensive effort. Negri has made just four appearances (one start) over San Diego's last 15 league fixtures. However, with injuries across the San Diego backline, he looks to be in line for an increase in minutes.

Signs with Miami Negri has completed a transfer to San Diego out of free agency, according to his new club.

Impact Negri has left Miami to join new MLS side San Deigo, linking up with the team out of free agency on a one-year contract. He started in nine of his 11 appearances, not seeing much time in a loaded Miami roster and only seeing one assist in his 791 minutes of play. However, he is joining a team that will have to find an identity immediately, and seeing he is a veteran with MLS experience, he should see an increased role with his new club.

Scores own goal Negri logged an own goal and one cross (zero accurate) during Inter Miami's 3-1 win Saturday against Nashville.

Impact Negri was added back to Inter Miami's starting XI on Saturday because fellow left-back Jordi Alba is dealing with a hamstring injury. Unfortunately for the former, his return was highlighted by an own goal that prevented the team from maintaining a clean sheet. Alba still needs at least one more game to recover, so Negri could have another opportunity to be part of Inter Miami's starting XI again, but the question is will he.

Impact Negri missed out on Miami's first seven matches as he finished his recovery from an ACL tear dating back to last season but he was fit enough to play the full match in this one, assisting with the only chance he created. He will look to push that momentum into a game versus Sporting Kansas City on Saturday.

Training on grass Negri (knee) was seen passing the ball on the grass for the first time since his ACL injury, via his injury per Inter Miami writer Alex Windley.

Impact Negri was able to step up his recovery by beginning ball work on the grass. He is not listed on Inter Miami's preseason roster, therefore will not be ready for the start of the MLS season. If all goes well, the midfielder will look to make a return to full team training in late March, as he aims to come back as early as April. Jordi Alba is expected to remain the favorite to start at left back for the team.

JUNE 27, 2023 • MLSSOCCER.COM

Torn ACL confirmed Negri will miss the rest of the season after tearing his ACL in last weekend's defeat against the Union, Inter Miami announced Tuesday.

Impact Negri tallied one goal one assist and one clean sheet in 16 appearances (all starts) during his debut campaign in MLS as he quickly broke into Miami's preferred lineup at left-back after transferring from Godoy Cruz in January. Unfortunately, he now becomes the latest player at the club to suffer a significant injury as he's set to undergo a season-ending surgery to repair his torn ACL. Christopher McVey and Noah Allen could both replace him at left-back, while Nicolas Stefanelli, Robert Taylor and Robbie Robinson are options for other formations where it's more of a left wing-back.

JUNE 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Forced off early Negri (undisclosed) was forced off in the first half of Saturday's clash with Philadelphia.

Impact Negri made it just 36 minutes before coming off with an undisclosed issue. The midfielder was brought off for Robbie Robinson, who is making a return from a long-term issue.

Takes shot in loss Negri took a shot on target and created a chance in Saturday's 1-0 defeat against CF Montreal. He also made two clearances, an interception and won two of two tackles in the match.

Impact Negri played well on both sides of the ball from left-back on Saturday, but it wasn't enough to earn a result against Montreal.

MAY 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Returning from suspension Negri will be eligible to feature in Wednesday's clash against Nashville SC after serving a one-game suspension.

Impact Negri missed Saturday's win over the Revolution while suspended for yellow card accumulation, but he is likely to plug straight back into the XI at left-back to face Nashville.

MAY 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Sent off late Negri was shown a straight red card and sent off during Saturday's 2-1 win over Atlanta.

Impact Negri was sent off late in the second half and will now serve at least a one-match ban. The defender was shown a straight red card for a bad challenge and could see his suspension extended. Negri will miss a May 13 clash with New England at least.

MAY 6, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Creates two chances in win Negri registered one shot (zero on goal), two crosses (one accurate) and two chances created in Saturday's 2-1 victory versus Columbus Crew.

Impact Negri created two chances Saturday, his third match this season with two or more. He also recorded one off-target shot, two crosses (one accurate), one won tackle, one interception and one blocked shot in his full 90 minutes of action.
