Andre Gomes - Late decision Wednesday Gomes is listed as questionable for the midweek game versus LAFC with a lower leg injury, according to the league's latest update.

Impact Gomes' status is uncertain, but if he can't play, either Amar Sejdic to Sekou Bangoura will likely start in his place. Gomes has been a key player in the Crew's midfield, and his absence would be a blow to the team's chances. Gomes had been having a solid season, with several important contributions in terms of ball recovery and distribution, and the Crew will hope he can return to the lineup soon.

Taha Habroune - Doubt due to illness Habroune is listed as questionable for Saturday's visit to New England due to an illness, according to the league's injury report.

Impact Habroune replaced the injured Wessam Abou Ali (knee) in the previous contest but could now be sidelined as well.

Habroune has had limited playing time in the last two matches, but he was a consistent offensive performer before that.

Yevhen Cheberko - Plays 74 minutes in Open Cup win Cheberko (thigh) played 74 minutes in Wednesday's 3-0 US Open Cup win over Richmond Kickers, confirming his return to full fitness for Columbus, the club posted.

Impact Cheberko had been absent from competitive action since Feb. 22 and his extended run of minutes in the Open Cup is exactly the kind of controlled reintegration the staff had in mind. Steven Moreira and Sean Zawadzki have been the preferred options at center-back during his lengthy absence and are likely to retain their spots in league play for now, but Cheberko's return gives coach Henrik Rydstrom a welcome depth option as the Crew push through the MLS season.

Impact Thiare suffered a knee issue after a shot attempt and was forced off the pitch in Wednesday's clash. The nature and severity of the issue has not been confirmed, and Columbus will assess him over the coming days before making a final call on his involvement at the weekend. Thiare has mainly been a bench option for the Crew this season, so his potential absence would have a limited impact on the starting lineup, but the club will want to avoid any unnecessary risks with the regular season well underway.

Wessam Abou Ali - Season officially over Abou Ali (knee) is ruled out for the remainder of the 2026 campaign after Columbus confirmed that his ACL tear and meniscus injury in the right knee will require surgery.

Impact Abou Ali ended the year with five goals and one assist over seven MLS starts, with his participation in the current season coming to an early end due to an unfortunate action during his last match against Orlando. This issue implies a huge blow to a squad that was expected to rely heavily on his offensive contribution. However, elements like Taha Harbroune and Jamal Thiare will now have to take on greater roles to support Diego Rossi up front.

Impact Abou Ali ended up with a severe problem in his right knee after his seventh game of the season and is now expected to miss several months of action. This is a tough blow to Columbus' attack considering that the forward was the top scorer on the squad with five goals before getting hurt. Both Taha Habroune and Jamal Thiare are options to join Diego Rossi in the front line for future contests.
