Impact Blake recently signed a new contract that will keep him in Philadelphia until the end of the 2026 season with a club option for 2027, but there's uncertainty as to when he'll be able to return to the pitch. He's missed four games in a row, and his chances of playing against Charlotte on Saturday look slim to none, though the fact that he's getting a second option will rule him out for that match. If that's the case, then Oliver Semmle should remain between the posts for the Union until Blake is ready to return.

Will stay in Philly Blake has agreed on a new two-year contract with the Union, with a club option for 2027.

Impact Blake has missed the last three games due to a knee injury, and he's been limited to just five starts in 12 contests to open the 2024 season. There's a chance Saturday's game comes too soon for him, and if that's the case, then Oliver Semmle would remain between the posts while Blake would target a return for the May 25 contest against Charlotte.

MAY 17, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Upgraded to questionable Blake (knee) is questionable for Wednesday's match against New York City FC.

Impact Blake could return Wednesday despite prior reports labeling him out for the game, as he has been upgraded from out to questionable. This could be huge for the club, as he is easily their best option in net when fit. He will hope to get the start immediately, but if not 100%, they may choose to leave him on the bench or completely out once again.

MAY 15, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Ruled out again Blake (knee) will not be an option for Wednesday's match versus NYCFC, per the Philadelphia Soccer Now.

MAY 14, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Doesn't train Thursday Blake (knee) didn't feature in training Thursday and might not be an option to face Orlando City on Saturday, Matthew De George of The Daily Times Sports reports.

Impact Blake missed the 2-2 draw against DC United due to a nagging knee problem, and given he's yet to return to training, his chances of returning ahead of Saturday's clash seem slim to none. If that's the case, then Oliver Semmle would remain in the starting lineup, whereas Blake's next chance to return will come against New York City on May 15.

Game-time call Tuesday Blake will be a game-time call for Tuesday's match against the Sounders due to a knee injury, Joe Tansey of Bleacher Report reports.

Impact Blake is dealing with a knee issue that needs to be drained, but it seems the Union will wait for him until the very last minute to assess his availability. If he can't go Tuesday, then Oliver Semmle would be in line to start.
