Back on bench Wednesday Twumasi (knee) is on the bench to face Minnesota United on Wednesday.

Status unclear Twumasi (knee) is not on the injury report but continues to handed a questionable tag for Wednesday's match against Minnesota.

Impact Twumasi continues to deal with a knee injury as his status for Wednesday is unclear, with another match coming up on Saturday.

Impact Twumasi has been in and out of the lineup this season, making 11 starts out of 15 appearances, but with Geovane Jesus out for the rest of the season with an ACL injury, his absence would leave Dallas with thin depth on the defensive end and no real specialist for the right-back role.

Impact Twumasi had a breakout year in 2021 with 23 MLS appearances (19 starts) playing at both right back and left back. The 24-year-old has signed on through 2024 at least, but he has some stiff competition for the full back spots with Ryan Hollingshead and Justin Che also in the mix for Dallas.
