CARSON, Calif. – It’s been a frustrating year for LA Galaxy forward Alan Gordon, but the veteran striker is adamant that he’ll make his return to action this weekend in the California Clásico against the San Jose Earthquakes.
Gordon, 34, has battled various ailments this season and made just three appearances after playing in 29 games and scoring seven goals a year ago. The target man has not played since April 10 and missed out on the Galaxy’s 2-2 draw with the Philadelphia Union in Pennsylvania due to the flu last week.
With the Galaxy set to take on the forward’s former club, the Earthquakes, Gordon is expecting to be available for selection and get minutes on Sunday.
