Back in midfield contention
Galarza is available for Inter Miami's MLS clash against D.C. United on Saturday after completing his international duty with Paraguay and being omitted from the league's latest injury report.
Analysis: Galarza missed the matchup against Columbus Crew while representing Paraguay during the international break but is now back in contention for midfield minutes. The defensive midfielder made his first start for Miami in the 2-2 draw against San Diego FC on Sept. 20, suggesting he was beginning to earn a larger role before his departure. Yannick Bright and David Ayala were among the options to cover his absence, and Galarza will face competition from both players for a starting spot against D.C. United.
Leaving Herons on NT duty
Galarza has been called up by Paraguay for the upcoming international break in September and October.
Analysis: Galarza made his first start with Inter Miami in the 2-2 draw against San Diego FC on Sept. 20, and the defensive midfielder will leave on international duty with Paraguay after impressing with the Albirroja in the 2026 FIFA World Cup. With Galarza not in the mix, Yannick Bright and David Ayala could be options to fill his void when Inter Miami takes on Columbus on Sunday. Galarza should be available for selection for the Oct. 10 match against D.C. United, though.
