HANOVER, N.J. – A year after enjoying a relatively injury-free season, the New York Red Bulls have had their fair share of setbacks during the 2016 campaign. But as the postseason beckons, the squad continues to approach full fitness.
After working his way back from an ACL injury at the start of the season, defender Damien Perrinelle managed to make his long-awaited return on July 10 against the Portland Timbers. Unfortunately, his place within the squad would be short lived. Suffering another injury setback on August 7 against the LA Galaxy, the Frenchman was forced back to the sidelines with ankle and meniscus injuries.
