Since Yangel Herrera fell victim to a severe leg injury back in May, New York City FC have had a revolving cast of players step in to try to fill the shoes of the young Venezuelan holding midfielder. These players include Ebenezer Ofori, Eloi Amagat, and even the once-displaced HGP James Sands. To say the least, the results have been mixed.
After receiving surgery a short time after sustaining his, it was widely believed that Herrera would miss the remainder of the season. However, recent reports seem to indicate that the Manchester City loan could return in time for the playoffs.
