This week saw several updates regarding players hitting the injury list as well as some notable on-field performances.
United States
Acosta was left out of the CONCACAF Champions League squad for FC Dallas’ first leg 1-0 away defeat to Panamanian side, Tauro FC. Acosta has been nursing a groin injury throughout preseason and now it’s reported that he has undergone surgery to repair a sports hernia. The surgery will keep Acosta out for up to 6 to 8 weeks, which will make him unavailable for the March friendly against Paraguay.
Shaft Brewer - Winger/Striker, Los Angeles FC
Brewer has reportedly had a falling out with RB Leipzig after six months in Germany with their U-19 team.
