Jacen Russell-Rowe - Dealing with knock Russell-Rowe is dealing with a knock and not training during the pre-season with Columbus, according to Brianna Mac Kay from Columbus Dispatch.

Impact Russell-Rowe wasn't spotted in team training on Wednesday during the pre-season of Columbus since he is currently dealing with a knock. That said, the forward is reportedly close to make a move away from the Crew, with clubs like Toulouse FC keen on signing him, therefore his situation must be monitored ahead of the 2026 MLS season.

Mohamed Farsi - Should return for season opener Farsi (pelvis) remains in the recovery phase but should be available for season opener, according to Brianna Mac Kay from Columbus Dispatch.

Impact Farsi should be available for the season opener against the Portland Timbers after missing roughly half of last season with a pelvis injury. He remains in the recovery phase and is not yet training, but he is expected to be fit in time for the opening match and should regain a decent role heading into the 2026 MLS season for Columbus.
