With the World Cup, the MLS is in a second scenario, and what Lionel Messi did the other day, even more. However, the US soccer league is still reporting transfer rumours or departures.
Recently, Austin FC released Robert Taylor, but there has also been good news: the Columbus Crew's reinforcement with the signing of Andres Herrera on a permanent deal.
Still, this time is not good news. Another former Inter Miami player has been released by their current club. The good side of this is that this footballer returns to the Herons and is not a free agent like Taylor.
Tomas Aviles returns to Inter Miami
Yes, Tomas Aviles is the player I’m talking about; my last sentence in the introduction might blow the suspense, but it's the truth. The Argentine youngster couldn’t find space at Montreal, and the club decided to end his loan.
According to Vincent Destouches, a journalist who covers CF Montreal, the relationship between the player and the club is over, and he has to return to Inter Miami.
Info: Tomás Avilés et @cfmontreal, c’est fini. Son prêt a été résilié et il retourne à @InterMiamiCF. #CFMTL avait pris peu de risque en l’amenant simplement en prêt. Mais l’Argentin était frustré de sa situation (221mn cette saison).

Une bonne issue pour les deux parties.
Tomas Aviles was on a one-year loan at the Canadian club. However, he couldn’t find space or prove his worth in the few opportunities he got. Thus, L'Impact saw him more as a liability than a solution.
On one side, this was the correct choice. The former Racing Club defender played 4 games, racking up 221 minutes with no goals or assists.
At Miami, Aviles started on the right foot, bringing youth and a new defensive perspective, but little by little, that spark began to fade, and the 22-year-old was sidelined for many games. Also, his performance on the field was bad.
Too many basic defensive errors, and too many cards put him as a problem rather than an answer. This led to a reduction in the manager’s trust and earned a special spot on the bench or even outside the squad list.
When you attach the knots, Aviles is not a bad player, but he hasn’t proven it yet. Now, Aviles is set to return to Inter Miami, where his future will depend on the new head coach’s assessments.
This is not the first time a player has come back from a bad loan, and under the new manager, he started to gain minutes and prove his worth.
We will see if this is the case for Tomas Aviles. Anything is possible in football, but he will have to fight tooth and nail for it.
