The MLS is back in the limelight in world soccer after Heung-min Son decided to leave Tottenham before the start of the new Premier League season to join Los Angeles FC, a signing with a major impact on soccer in the United States. On the other hand, this important arrival does not prevent other important names from opting to leave the league, especially for Brazilian soccer.
According to the latest reports, Fluminense (who played in the semi-final of the FIFA Club World Cup against Chelsea) are very close to signing Luciano Acosta, an Argentinian player who came through the ranks at Boca Juniors and is one of FC Dallas' key players. The price would be around 4 million dollars for 100% of the rights being bought by the Brazilian team, who intend to announce the signing for three years in the next few days.
Everything indicates that the procedures are all set to be defined in the next few hours, with only the last details remaining for the official announcement of the signing. Luciano Acosta also has spells at Estudiantes in Argentina, DC United in the USA, Atlas in Mexico and FC Cincinnati in the USA.
Luciano Acosta has the potential to do well in Brazil
With the arrival of the Argentine striker, Fluminense will have a great reinforcement for the remainder of the Brasileirão season (which started in April this year), with a 31-year-old right-footed attacking midfielder who has a lot of finishing power. The Argentine has made 173 appearances, scoring 61 goals and providing 54 assists since joining FC Cincinnati, and has also been speculated about by other Brazilian teams such as Corinthians and Atlético-MG since then.
However, it's important to note that Luciano is going through a low point in his career. Unlike last year, when he scored 15 goals and added 19 assists, the Argentine has only scored 7 goals in 2025 in the MLS, contributing one assist. Obviously, FC Dallas' collective performance is also contributing negatively to this.
