Danley Jean-Jacques scores as Union surge; Isidor signs Sunderland deal to 2030

Danley Jean-Jacques leads today's brief on the back of a productive week for Philadelphia Union. The 26-year-old midfielder started and scored in Union's 2-0 home win over Montreal on September 5, adding to the assist he registered in a 3-1 win at New York Red Bulls on August 29. Over those two outings Jean-Jacques contributed a goal and an assist, with three shots on target across the pair of fixtures. He now has 3 goals and 1 assist in 21 MLS appearances in 2026, with Philadelphia pushing firmly for a strong playoff position.

Wilson Isidor commands the other major headline: Sunderland have confirmed the Haitian striker has signed a new contract keeping him at the Stadium of Light until 2030, with Yahoo Sports and Sky Sports both reporting the deal amid reported West Ham interest. Isidor was pictured in action for Sunderland in the Premier League at Ipswich on August 22, confirming the club's top-flight status heading into this stretch.

Elsewhere, Ricardo Adé started LDU Quito's 3-1 LigaPro away win at Túa on September 4, continuing his influential 2026 campaign with the Ecuadorian champions. Hannes Delcroix posted an 8.2 Sofascore rating in Lugano's 1-0 Swiss Super League win over Servette, and Carl-Fred Sainthe came off the bench to score in El Paso Locomotive's 4-1 USL Championship win over Loudoun United on August 30.
