GAME LOG

Available to return Mueller (lower body) "is back, he's in contention to be in the squad", manager Gregg Berhalter said Thursday.
Impact Mueller should make his first appearance since March 7 after spending seven league games on the sidelines, although his return is likely to be in a substitute role given his lack of form. With striker Hugo Cuypers carrying impressive momentum, Mueller has little chances of being used in that position as he did earlier this year, so he'll possibly challenge Philip Zinckernagel and Jonathan Bamba on the flanks, looking to produce some crosses and scoring chances.

Starts to train Mueller (lower body) is back in training, according to Joe Chatz of On Tap Sports.
Impact Mueller is back in the saddle at the training grounds, leading to a possible return soon. This is major news for the midfielder after an injury in week four has left him out, missing five games with the injury. With only a few days until the next match, he could sit out another game, but either way, a return is on the horizon.

Working on grass Mueller (not injury related) has been working in the gym and has yet to return to the grass yet, reports Joe Chatz of On Tap Sports Net.
Impact Mueller remains out due to a non injury as he begins to work in the gym. He's already missed the last month, as a return in April seems unlikely, but not out of the question if he is able to return to training.

Forced off in draw Mueller abandoned Saturday's 0-0 draw with Columbus Crew due to an apparent injury.
Impact Mueller went down on a non-contact play, apparently suffering a leg injury. This issue could leave him out of upcoming fixtures, which would imply a tough situation for a team that might also be without Hugo Cuypers (lower body) and may end up deploying Robin Lod as a striker, while Jason Shokalook could also see increased playing time.
MARCH 7 • ROTOWIRE
Fit for friendly Mueller (chest) started and played 45 minutes in a preseason friendly.
Impact Mueller has returned to play after he ended last season injured, with the midfielder an option for a friendly to start the preseason. This is massive news for the midfielder after he was sidelined the entire 2025 campaign, unable to return from a chest issue. He had previously held a rotational role with 15 starts in 27 appearances during the 2024 season, likely heading for a similar role.

Working individually Mueller (chest) is training individually, according to Joe Chatz of On Tap Sports.
Impact Mueller is back on the training field this week to do some work, getting back to individual training. This is good news for the midfielder, but his return still remains months away, not set to return this season, even if they make a run in the playoffs, as he focuses on the next campaign.

Signs extension Mueller (chest) signed an extension with Chicago for 2026, the club announced.
Impact Mueller officially went down for the season in July due to a chest injury, but was brought back for 2026. The midfielder has been productive in Chicago, though he hasn't reached the same heights he did with Orlando. He will be back in 2026 after a full year on the sideline, but a new contract at this point in his recovery clearly means the club thinks he can get back to his best.

Won't return in 2025 Mueller has announced that he's going on the season-ending injured list after he was diagnosed with pericarditis at the beginning of the season, the club posted.
Impact Mueller was diagnosed with pericarditis at the beginning of the season, an inflammation around the lining of the heart which has kept him sidelined since the start of the 2025 campaign. Unfortunately, the midfielder won't be able to feature in 2025 as he announced that he's been added to the season-ending injury list. Mueller will hope to come back fit and recovered for the 2026 season since he will still be under contract for one more year with Chicago.
