Inter Miami has officially appointed Cristian ‘Kily’ Gonzalez as their new head coach, replacing Guillermo Hoyos. The Argentine coach steps in as the MLS club faces a challenging five-match winless streak across the Leagues Cup and MLS regular season. Gonzalez, 51, will assume duties once his work permit is approved, with Hoyos continuing provisionally. Gonzalez brings experience from managing Argentine clubs Rosario Central, Union, and Platense. His distinguished playing career included spells at Valencia and Zaragoza in Spain's LaLiga, and Inter Milan in Italy's Serie A, alongside international appearances for Argentina, where he played with Lionel Messi. Inter Miami currently holds second place in the Eastern Conference. The club is also reportedly nearing a deal to sign 19-year-old Palmeiras attacking midfielder Riquelme Fillipi for an estimated $5.5 million to $6 million for 60% of his rights.
